Chapter 2
Mr. L didn't know what he was doing. "Why do I keep searching? Nothing's gonna show up." At this point he was so tired of looking. He didn't even know why he cared so much.
"He's still out there. I know it!"
"Bold to assume that I won't have the last laugh!"
Luigi and Dimentio's words echoed through Mr. L's head, as he headed for a place he hadn't been in a long time, Deltarune. Ever since he put Jevil back, he had been avoiding returning. After all, he didn't want Jevil to be there when he realized that it was Mr. L who took him back to his lonely prison, but if there was a slight chance Jevil would know something, he had to find out. He headed out of the Mario files and towards the Deltarune file.
Mr. L had gotten good at sneaking around. After all, his outfit blended into the dark surroundings pretty well. He made his way down, down, down, to Jevil's lonely prison. He didn't have the key, nor did he have a plan to break Jevil out. He just needed to talk. He walked up to the cell door.
"Uhh, Jevil? It's me, L." Suddenly, Mr. L could hear Jevil moping from the other side of the room. "No escape...." "Jevil?" Jevil stood up. "You brought me back, back to this room. The same room. Same floor, same walls, same me. Alone." Mr. L looked down. "I know, I know, I'm sorry." "While you were gone, I got some visitors." Mr. L looked up. "Oh, Good!" Then Jevil turned around. "But they left me too." "O-oh. I'm sorry." Jevil sprung to the cell door. "Never mind that! Why is Mr. L back?" Mr. L grabbed his own arm. "I wanted to ask you about Dimentio." Jevil laughed. "Don't you remember? You killed him."
Mr. L looked down. "I was hoping, maybe you've seen him or heard from him. After all, he use to talk to you often, correct? I thought maybe he... I don't know." Jevil smiled. "If he showed his face here, I would make him regret turning on me. He locked me away too. All everyone does is lock me away. It doesn't matter what I do. I can do anything, and it doesn't matter. I CAN DO ANYTHING, this world isn't real, I knew that, so they locked me away. Heeheehee, they didn't want me telling their secret, they called me mad, they hid me from the world. A Joker had no place upon the others, no no no." Mr. L snapped Jevil out of his ranting. "Jevil! Focus!"
Jevil stopped and turned around. "Dimentio hasn't visited. I waited for him to. I waited for someone, anyone to come. I can't stand it, I can't stand the loneliness. I waited for him to come back just so I could see something, but nobody came. Heeheehee. NOBODY CAME!" Jevil rolled on the floor in a laughing fit. "Jevil, do you know anything about him at all? Maybe you know a place he would he hiding or something?" Mr. L pleaded. He was tired of finding all these dead ends. Jevil continued to laugh. "Everyone knows the best place to hide is INSANITY!!!!"Mr. L knew he shouldn't have come. All this effort, for nothing. Jevil's laughing fit slowed. "Why do you want to find him anyway?" Mr. L looked down. "I don't know." He began turning away. Jevil called out, "He's not coming backkkk, just give up! I did!" Mr. L looked angry and just left. As expected, another dead end. He shouldn't have let Luigi fill him with so much hope again.
Jevil waited for Mr. L to be completely out of sight, before looking down, and walking back to his corner. He started softly singing to himself, "Your world's a fantasy, your world's a fantasy, your world's a fantasy..." while giggling.
Mr. L stormed away, and sat down once he was out of sight. He could hear Jevil's stupid voice echoing down the halls. "Ugh, I should have known that stupid clown would know nothing. I'm done. I'm done. I can't keep dealing with this. I just need to accept that he's gone forever." He suddenly felt a short burst of rage. He stood up, yanked his hat off his head and threw it against the wall, then plopped back down and covered his eyes. "Stupid, stupid, STUPID!"
After about thirty minutes of Mr. L just sitting there, feeling sorry for himself, he got up. "Nothing else to do but go home. No use sticking around this stupid place." He briefly looked back down the stairs which led to Jevil's cell, but then turned and marched onward.
