Dark stared down at Wilford's unconscious body, holding his cold grey hand, hoping to see his aura flare out, indicating that he was coming out of it, but the aura was nowhere to be seen. Sitting next to him was Marvin, flipping through pages of his book in a frenzy trying to find a spell that could help.

"There has to be one in here. There has to be!" Marvin shook his head still flipping through the book.

"The Host informs Marvin that there is no spell that can pull him back. Only Wilford can do so."

"AND YOU TELL ME THIS NOW?!" Marvin snapped, before turning to Dark who had fear in his pink eyes. He quickly closed the book setting the book down, his eyes still on Dark, who clutched Wil's hand tightly.

Dark felt a few tears stream down his face, turning to bubbles as he shook his head. "I... I don't know what to do for him... That thing could be doing anything to him and all I can do is sit and watch!"

Marvin looked at Wilford then back at Dark, before sighing, placing a hand on his shoulder, getting the now pink ego's attention. "It's... It's gonna be okay, we'll think of something."

Dark stared at the magician for a long time, before closing his eyes, resting his hand over Marvins, when suddenly Marvins body began to glow, causing Dark to open his eyes, staring at him in confusion. "Uh... Marv?"

Marvin blinks before looking at his arm that was glowing green, causing him to stare ahead. "... He found it."

"With that Dark and Marvin, disappeared into a cloud of green smoke... Leaving the Host behind... He wishes them Good luck."

Anti continued to chant the spell, waiting for any sign that Marvin was on his way with the spell. While he was doing that, Wilford managed to lift himself up, shaking his head as he looked at Anti as confusion sets in. "Anti?... What are you doing here?"

"Saving your ass!" Anti snapped, chanting the spell again, watching as the glass creature began to stir. "Come on Marv where the fuck are you!?" 

"Wil, there is a way to get out." Damien began to explain. "Mirrors are connected to the upside-down. If you can channel through different plains you'll be able to find the ones that lead to the Ego Inc."

"You have Dark's powers now," Celine added. "Demons are able to channel through this place... But in order for this to work, you have to wake up."

"B-But... I-I don't know how to! I feel like I'm in a nightmare I can't wake up from!" Wilford argued looking around.

"It's okay, we'll help you." Celine smiled, but her attention was brought back to the creature that began to slowly sit up.

It slowly pulled itself up off the ground, growling to itself as it reached up, clutching the knife that was stuck in its head, before yanking it out with a quick pull. It held the knife tightly in its claws, letting out a low growl as its green eyes stared into Anti's blue ones, whos were now full of fear.

"Oh shit," Anti whispered dropping the paper.

It then let out a screech chucking the knife at Anti, expecting it to stab right through Anti's head, but a bright flash came out of nowhere when Marvin formed out of nowhere lifting his arm as he created a force field around him and Anti watching as the knife made an impact on the force field but not even chipping the surface. The creature blinked, before growling.

"Took you long enough!" Anti snapped punching Marvin's shoulder.

"Took you long enough to find it!" Marvin shot back causing Anti to roll his eyes.

Dark coughed, waving the smoke away, before looking around, finding that he was in his void. But was surrounded by a purple force field. He went to touch it when he noticed that his hand was grey. The ego blinked before looking down to find that he was wearing his suit. He was back in his body? But how? "How am I-?" Dark slowly looked up to see Marvin and Anti, but his eyes stayed on the glitch. "Anti?!"
