Darkness within Wasteland Part 2

   As Mickey and the gremlin were on their quest to finding the stolen rocket pieces, Oswald was in his layer pacing around in confusion. Many thoughts were swarming around in his head and he was unable to piece them together. His biggest concerned was what kept him thinking,"This plan is never going to work, I already have the bad feeling that the blot is going to over take us and eventually steal Mickey's heart sooner or later, before we even get the chance to escape Wasteland. It's only a matter of time before the seal to the bottle breaks and the real blot will be freed!".

  He sat down in his chair, covering his face in the palm of his hands while in distress."I can't take living in this world anymore. Nothing is left here to hold me back from leaving. I've lost everything because of that stupid mouse, including my poor sweet Ortensia!" He began to sob as he looked at all the pictures hanging from the wall of him, Ortensia, and all four hundred and twenty of their bunny children.

  He stopped himself as he came up with one of his worst possible plan he could ever think of, but there was no changing his mind once it came to him. "I have no other possible choice but to join the blot".

  Without hesitation he jumped out of his chair,and walked past his guards without attracting any suspicion, then ran when he pasted the doorway of his layer, and headed up Mickeyjunk Mountain toward the contained bottle at the very top.

  After what seemed like hours to the exausted rabbit, which was actually ten minutes, Oswald tiredlessly reached to the top of the mountain and leaned against the bottle to catch his breath. He looked around, seeing no sign of the blot then he yelled out into the distance.

  He stopped to listen for any type of noice until he saw a faint black shadow in the distance. Soon enough he noticed that it was the blot coming straight towards him at intense speed, ready to attack, but just as the blot was about to strike at him, Oswald yelled," Wait! I came here to help!"

  Oswald opened his eyes and saw that the blot was still and had a rather curious expression."Help with what exactly?", the blot questioned. In amazement of hearing the blot speak for the very first time, Oswald scowled back,"So you can talk!?". The blot only looked at him still waiting for an answer. Oswald hid his fear and and said, "I'm not helping Mickey and his gremlin friend anymore, that way I can help free you from this bottle and escape from this world as long as you take me with you".

 "And you would be willing to do what ever it takes no matter what?" the blot growled. Without a word, Oswald only nodded his head in agreement. "Fine then, if you expect to get out of this world with me, I only have one simple task for you...Bring me Mickey's heart!" Oswald felt a lumped form on his throught as those very last words continuously repeated in oswald's head.

  After processing what he had heard, he had to ask,"Well how do you expect me to do that without making a complete mess of him?" The blot gave him a devious smile and told him,"Hold still".

  A piece of the blot dismembered from it and floated toward Oswald. Once it was near it pressed against Oswald's chest. A sharp pain stabbed at him as he watched the ink absorb into his body. The agonizing pain cause him to choke and unable to breathe.

  A tingling sensation spread through out his body. He looked directly at his hands as he watched them turn into the black ink along with the rest of his body. The color of his eyes changed into a glowing green, just as the blot's did. Then there came a strange feeling in his chest again as if something was forming inside. He watched as a glowing figure appeared and shaped into the form of a heart. He soon felt beating in his chest like he once did when he had a real heart, but even so it still didn't feel the same.

  He was frozen in shock unable to say anything until he finaly yelled,"What did you do to me!?".

"I simply gave you some of my abilities if you expect to take that rodents heart",the blot remarked with a grusome smirk.

"I can't be seen like this though!".

 The blot's smirk dissapeared and said,"Fine! All you have to do is imagine they way you looked before". Oswald did as he said and watched the ink fade away and he shape shifed back to his original form. Even though he looked normal, he could still feel the ink oozing inside him, but he had no other choice, but to ignore it, and accept what has happened.

  As Oswald was heading toward the projection screen to Mean Street, the blot stopped him for the last time and said,"If you try any sort of tricks, I promise you that I will kill you if you betray me! And I won't leave this world until I do!".The blot held out one of its claws, pushing it against Oswald's neck and slowly slidding it up to his chin in a sort of cutting motion before he took his claw away. Oswald gulped while he held his hands over his neck letting the blot know that he understood.

  After the blot said his last words, the blot flew away from meer sight in a flash. Beyond that point, Oswald felt a sudden change in who he was and a rather evil smirk ran across his face as he jumped into the projection screen. "Time to get what you deserve little brother".
