Meanwhile with Ms.L....

Ms.L panted, She is exhausted and feels like a failure. "I don't know what is with me... but I feel like I can never seem to beat those guys..." Ms.L groaned. "Ah ha ha. Did they hurt your fragile pride Ms.L? Destroyed your robot again?" A voice asked out loud, Dimentio appeared.

"Oh, hey Dimentio... I feel so bummed down that I just cannot ever win... I don't even know if I could go back to Count Bleck after this... at least you understand..." Ms.L said to Dimentio, she trusted him, she knew he likes her. "I do understand... Which is why I hope you'll forgive me for this..." Dimentio said, he sends an explosion her way.

She jumped nervously. "H-hey?! What are you doing?! We're on the same team!" Ms.L cried out loud. "Like you said, you cannot go back to Count Bleck after that performance... You understand why I'm doing this don't you?" Dimentio asked, he trapped her in a glass box.

Ms.L gasped. "Dimentio! Please! I didn't mean it like this! Let me out of here!" She cried out. "Shh... Do not be sad... I promise to you, we will be reunited soon enough... I will send those heroes your way for you to play with them..." Dimentio said, his hand shook as he snapped his fingers, causing an explosion to go off in the box.

She screamed as she was blasted in the box and pretty much died. Dimentio turned away, covering his eyes. "Ciao... Ms.L..." He said before he vanished.L

Meanwhile with Count Bleck...

"Yeah, so just got a quick ping from Dimentio? We've had a little insubordination.... Yeah, according to his report, our Ms.L took a hero-fighting initiative... I accept full responsibility, it was my administrative breakdown that allowed this..." Nastasia said sadly. "I see, remarked Count Bleck... well, what's done is done. This prophecy will not be fulfilled without sacrifice..." Count Bleck said. Nastasia lowers her head.

"So, 'K... um, and just another quick update on Mimi... She, um, also left the castle..." Nastasia replied. "Did she, now? Well, Count Bleck will leave you to dispense the minion discipline..." Count Bleck ordered. ".....Count... Um, you seem a bit different today. New monocle? Or did something happen?" She asked him. "Count Bleck feels fine... leave me..." He replied. "Oh, um, of course, yeah, please excuse me." Nastasia said, leaving. Count Bleck put his hat over his face. "....Could That Pixl have been Timpani?" He asked. He shook his head. "No no, completely impossible. I should know that better than anyone. Besides, it's far too late to do anything now. The prophecy has been set in motion, and no one, not even I can stop it. No one can stop this now..." He said, leaving with the Dark Prognosticus.

"Timpani! What did you do with her? I must see her!"

"Still your tongue, Blumiere... Can't you see you've been dumped by a dirty human?"

"You have brought shame to my name... and to the entire Tribe of Darkness!"

"And so what if I did? That doesn't matter to me! She's my entire world!"

"Well, then it will interest you to know... that she no longer resides in this world."

"What... What do you mean by that?!"

"There is a price those who resist their own fate must pay, my son."

"She... No... It can't be so!"

"Someday you will see, son. Our kind and humans must never mix."

Meanwhile, the heroes came back to Flipside, returning to Merlon's house. "Oh ho! The heroes return. Do you have the 7th Pure Heart?" Merlon asked. "We do... but..." Mario said, holding up the stone Pure Heart. "What... What happened to it?" Merlon asked. "The world got destroyed and now this is all that remains of the Pure Heart..." Mario said sadly. "Hmmmmmmm... Well, if you were to place this in a Heart Pillar, it would do nothing... I'm afraid we're stuck between a rock and a hard place..." Merlon said. "Is there anything you could do?" Peach asked worried.

"Ah ha ha. The forlorn group of heroes, how they cry! The tears flow like sad chowder!" A voice called out, Dimentio appears. "Oh great! You again?! You guys are awful! You let a world get destroyed and now we have a broken Pure Heart! And our friend doesn't even remember who we are!" Mario cried out. "Oh what sad news. Well, I hate to beat on the dead horse, but there is no way to restore the Pure Heart." Dimentio said. "What?! Are you serious?! That stinks!" Bowser shouted. Mario felt upset. He just wanted to go grab Dimentio and demand him to fix it, but he didn't.

"Not to worry, I have a consolation prize for you..." Dimentio said. Mario didn't like the sound of this consolation prize. Dimentio trapped Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Bowser in a box. "What the?! Hey!!!" Bowser shouted and punched the box. "Hey?! What are you doing?!" Mario asked worried. Peach was worried too.

He snapped his fingers and an explosion went off in the box, effectively killing them. They all screamed as they all were axed off, just like Ms.L was earlier. "Mario?! Princess Peach?! Luigi?! Bowser?! Where are you?!" Tippi panicked. "I granted their wish, and sent them to the next world. Well, I'd best be off. Ciao!" Dimentio said and disappeared. "Mario... no..." Tippi said sadly.
