Busy: yo what the fuck, why am I here again.
???: can you shut yo ass up bitch.
Busy: ight fine, I think your hero asked for you presence
He says trying to trick the guard into revealing the owner's name, and he succeeds.
???: Ah Busy the hero requests my presence! I must be on my way.
The unknown guard leaves
Busy: wait, I'm not the owner, some magic shit is going on, but I won't let that shit stop me.
Busy escapes. And suddenly he spied the guard...talking to him?
???: Busy, i hear you have summoned me, what do you wish to talk about.
"Busy": huh, I never requested your presence, but I thank you Reginald, I need to get a lot off my chest
Cue "Busy" venting to reginald
"Busy":... wait a minute, is someone guarding busy?
Reginald: no sir, I'm sorry sir, but for real though, if you ever need to talk, I'm here for you to vent to.
"Busy": thank you reginald
Suddenly, that person busy saw earlier, with the yellow mask appears with a friend, and a few familiar faces.
???: Shadow Busy! We're here to change your heart! Now then Reveal yourselves my friends!
4 people appear, 3 boys, one girl
???: Call me joker! I'm a good friend of paleos!
??? C'mon joker, let us have some fun too, anyway I'm kingpin!
Joker: kingpin, you're no fun, at least let's get this over with.
Kingpin: alright! Let em know who you are!
???: I'm Door! Don't judge my code name or I will boil your arteries.
???: seriously, that's your codename? Door! *she bursts out laughin* anyways, I'm codename neko!
Shadow busy: geez, I can't believe I had to sit through this long ass intro, but how do you know my name.
Paleos: oh simple, but that's my private secret.
Busy starts thinking to himself: "bro wtf, why are the 3 kids who saved the world, this dude, and I assume the 'best girl' of the group confronting 'me'?"
Everyone but the busy's and reginald: NOW, ON THE BEHALF OF OUR FRIEND BUSY! ITS TIME TO CHANGE HIS HEART!
They charge at shadow busy full force, yet suddenly a red blur speeds across the field
???: DON'T HURT HIM!
even he couldn't believe it, he just saved his impostor.
Everyone but normal busy: BUSY?!?!?!?!?!
Busy: I know you're trying to change my heart, but if it's going to be changed, it needs to be by me!
Shadow busy: thank you me...you saved me
Busy: I didn't necessarily save you, I'm makin sure you're at full strength for our inevitable battle
The crew of people pull out chairs and popcorn.
Busy: well then me, I guess it's time I say the words....you're not me...I'm sorry
Shadow busy transforms into a bloody wyvern
Shadow busy: Let's get this shit OVER with! I am a shadow...the true self! I wasn't strong enough to even help her!
Busy summons part of his magic, and he summons a lambeo!
Busy: Lambris! Please! Use Lambeo combo!
Lambris hits 2 devastating blows and makes shadow busy a bit woozy
Shadow busy: fool, don't act tough, when you couldn't do jackshit to save her!
Lambris finishes it off with a jab. And shadow busy goes back to "normal"
Busy: I get it now, I'm you, and you're me. And if I was strong enough, maybe she'd still be here along with me. Thanks for everything.
The acceptance of one's true self has allowed even the darkest of voids to be lit
He has obtained a miraculous fossil rock from shadow busy and a card with the words "crush this anytime you need a boost"
Busy starts to tear up: y'know man, I'm gonna miss you, and Reginald.
Shadow busy hugs him tightly
Busy explores, but he has a striking new outfit, he leaves before any of the crew says a word
