Chapter 21
Hey guys! Writer-person here! I'm sorry this took so long, but you can all thank my sister who has been nagging me ever since she read everything so far to update. I've been taking my time on this chapter because it is, in my opinion one of the most important parts of the story. It is also the end, which means I need to conclude it in a way that hopefully leaves the reader somewhat content, so I REALLY don't want to mess this chapter up.
I have been a little nervous about writing this, but I feel pretty good about what I've come up with and if there are any mistakes, I can always come back and fix it later.
So without further hesitation, I present to you the last chapters!
(Leafy' POV)
We had reached the entrance to Golfball's factory, where the rest of the objects were throwing a party.
Everyone was getting along. Whether they were from the LOL, or BFDI. Even mean objects like Flower and Doughnut were being nice to each other. But something was wrong. Why was everyone getting along so well? how did all the fighting and conflict suddenly just disappear?
Everyone cheered when they saw me.
"Hi Leafy!"
"Wanna hang out with us?"
"Leafy! We're glad to see you!"
Why had everyone suddenly forgiven me? Didn't everyone hate me just a few days ago? And when did objects like Flower start being nice? There was no way that everyone could just start getting along all of a sudden. Then it hit me.
The curse had spread. Only this time, I was the one causing it.
Autumn was dead, which meant that the curse had spread to me since I had been given the curse by Autumn.
The curse was actually meant to make objects want to do anything the giver if the curse wanted. Like a pet trying to please their master. Which is why none of the objects serving Autumn went against her. Except Golfball, who must have amazing willpower.
As soon as I made this realization, I was horrified. I wanted everyone to get along, but not like this.
The only way the curse would break, is if I were dead.
(Firey's POV)
Evil Leafy was dead, everyone was happy, and Leafy was back. My day couldn't get any better. I was standing at the edge of the forest, waiting for Leafy to come back after she was done talking to Golfball. I leaned against one of the trees, which made the tree burst into flames so that I fell into a pile of ash. I had just gotten up, when I saw Leafy coming toward me. I smiled, but she gave me a sad look.
Leafy looked like she was trying hard not to cry. I was about to ask her what was wrong, but before I could, she started talking to me.
"Firey, you've been my best friend since BFDI. You were always there for me, but I hurt your feelings when I told you I wanted to get off of your ferris wheel. I know you didn't want me on Dream Island because I made you upset, but instead of trying to talk to you about it, I got angry and took Dream Island away from you. Everyone else wanted me dead and even tried to kill me, but you saved my life and forgave me. I've done a lot of things that were wrong that I regret, but now I'm going to try to make them right."
I should have told her the truth, I should have told her the real reason I didn't want her on dream Island. I should have told her how I was the one who should be sorry. But most importantly, I should have told her how I felt about her. But instead, I didn't do anything to stop what she did next.
"I'm sorry Firey."
Then I gasped in horror as she wrapped her arms around me and burst into flames.
"LEAFY!!!"
I looked at the pile of ash that sat at my feet. I couldn't believe what just happened. I don't know how long I stood there until I realized what I needed to do.
I ran to the SPRC, pushing objects away from me and screaming, trying to fight the weird pain coming from me eyes that I didn't realize until later were tears. I ran so fast that I almost tripped three times. I don't know how I knew, but something told me I needed to get there quickly and that this was a matter of life and death.
I could see SPRC in the distance. Then I noticed Flower with a giant hammer running towards the SPRC. OH NO, LEAFY! I ran faster, making everything around me a giant blur. Finally, I reached the spot outside of Golfball's factory were we carried the SPRC, but I was too late.
The SPRC was destroyed.
I saw Flower standing on top of what was left of the SPRC she looked angrier than I had ever seen her, which I didn't think was possible.
"That's what you get for making me apologize to someone as worthless as Bubble, for killing her in season one when she didn't deserve an apology!"
Time stopped. I felt dizzy and I couldn't see strait.
Images started flashing through my head.
Leafy saving my when flower made the bridge collapse...
Me and Leafy playing tic tac to...
Me and Leafy officially becoming friends in outer space...
The Announcer telling me he sold the recovery centers and that Leafy was gone forever...
Finding out Leafy was only faking her death...
Rejecting Leafy from Dream island...
Finding out that the other objects wanted to give her the death penalty...
Flying on the hang glider with Leafy...
Telling Leafy I forgot about her and doing nothing when Gelatin killed her...
Leafy pulling me out of the incinerator...
Leafy, Gelatin, and I all becoming friends...
Then finally, Leafy giving me my first and last hug...
The only thing I remembered after that was the pure anger that I felt at that moment. I don't remember anything else about when I did it. But after I had done it, I was panting heavily. What happened?.I Looked down and realized what I had done. Flower, the one who everyone hated, the one who struck fear into the hearts of those around her, who had destroyed anything standing in her way... was dead.
She looked worse than anything I could have possibly imagined, but I couldn't feel anything. All my emotions were gone, as if she took them with her. I turned away from the scene of destruction and began walking back to... to her. I don't remember the walk there, all I remember was dropping to my knees in front of the ashes as if I had eaten a yoyel berry and they had turned into metal.
This is my fault.
I couldn't hold back whatever it was that was trying to escape my eyes. I then saw a small clear dot fall on top of Leafy's ashes.
It was my first tear.
Then the ash began to sparkle until it was almost impossible to look at.
"Wha, What's going on, what's happening?"
(Leafy's POV)
I was standing in a forest filled with trees that had leaves that were the same shape as me and Autumn. I looked around, confused.
Am I dreaming?
I heard a voice. It was really quiet, so I almost couldn't hear it.
"Why are you here?"
I looked around, but I couldn't see anyone. I didn't know what else to do, so I started talking to the voice.
"Well, its a long story, but my sister was cursed to become evil and started controlling everyone I knew, but then she was killed. I thought the curse was over, but I realized that she gave the curse to me. So I was controlling everyone around me without realizing it." My vision was getting blurry, but I kept going.
"So the only way to stop the curse was to..." I don't know why, but I started crying. It sounded weird with my deep voice, but I couldn't stop.
The voice started to talk again. "What is it that you wish for?"
"I wish I could go back, but I don't want to be controlling anyone."
Suddenly, I was being surrounded by a bright light. I gasped.
"What's going on?"
I saw a familiar old green leaf in front of me. She was smiling. I finally realized who's voice it was that I heard.
"Thank you Leafy, for lifting the curse on our family."
"Umm, you're welcome, I guess?"
"Our ancestors brought this curse on us many years ago. It was meant to transform every other generation into monsters for their mothers to witness their children causing destruction, without being able to help them become the object they were supposed to be. I don't know how this curse was cast on our family, but I do know that thanks to you, our ancestors can now rest in peace."
I didn't know what to say, did I really lift the curse on the family?
"But I thought the cure was supposed to be a purely selfless act. How did I save everyone in our family?"
My grandmother smiled sadly. "It was."
"Wait, you mean I..." She smiled and gave me a hug. Suddenly I remembered something. " What about Autumn? If I recovered her, would she be cursed again, right?"
My grandmother looked like she was about to say something, when suddenly the light surrounding me got brighter.
"It's time for you to go. Say hello to your parents for me!"
"What?! Go where? What's happening?"
My grandma waved and for a second, I thought I saw another leaf standing next to her shouting, "I'll see you soon sis!"
Then the white light faded to black.

I was standing in a familiar place I had known my whole life. Can I really be...
"L-Leafy? Is that you?" I heard an object stutter. I turned around and saw Firey, who looked shocked.
"Firey?" I gave the biggest smile I had since BFDI. I must have been recovered after all!
"How, I mean, why, I mean, oh my gosh you're back!"
Objects started cheering around us. I didn't notice them at first, but they were watching us the whole time. I wondered why none of them seemed surprised that I had been recovered, but after what we had all gone through, I guess nothing was surprising anymore.
"Leafy's back!" Pencil cheered.
"I'm sorry I wanted revenge Leafy!" Icy yelled
"YOYELCAKE!" Bubble screamed.
"... Whatever." Doughnut said, crossing his arms. Oh well, at least I knew now that the curse was lifted.
In all the excitement, Golfball kissed Tennisball. Tennisball smiled shyly, as his face turned a bright pink.
"HA! SEE! I KNEW IT! I KNEW TB AND GB WERE IN LOVE!!!" Coiny yelled.
Tennisball's face turned from pink to red, making him look like a dodgeball instead of a tennisball. Golfball rolled her eyes. "Shut up Coiny."
"Yeah Coiny, shut up!" Firey said eagerly. Coiny didn't even answer.
Everything seemed like it could go back to normal, or as normal as things could get after everything that had happenned. Then I remembered what I saw before I was recovered.
"I'll see you soon sis!"
"AUTUMN!!"
Everyone stared at me, most of them confused. Golfball was the only one who knew who I was even talking about. She put her foot on my shoulder.
"Leafy I know you miss her you're sister, but we can't bring her back or we'll have to go through all of that again. She's still Evil Leafy."
"Evil Leafy is your what?" Firey asked.
"I'll tell you la-" I said before I was interrupted.
"EVIL LEAFY IS YOUR SISTER?" Eraser yelled, loud enough for everyone to hear.
Everyone gasped.
I shook my head. "The curse is over. Didn't you notice the possessed objects eyes going back to normal after I died?"
"What?" She looked around to make sure that what I said was true.
"... She's right!"
"Maybe the curse really is lifted?"
"Wow..."
I could see golfball was thinking, so I didn't interrupt her.
"...Well, she could curse us all again, but from what I've learned going undercover as one of her henchmen-"
"Is that what she calls it?"
"Shut up Coiny. Now as I was saying-"
"Didn't you already tell me to shut up?"
"Let her finish!" Tennisball snapped at Coiny.
Golfball gave Tennisball a look of appreciation. "Thank you Tennisball. Now as I was saying before i was so rudely interrupted. Even though she could curse us all again, it would take her a while to be able to do it. So if she is still Evil, we could just kill her and recover her when we find a way to bring her back to her old self."
I gave her a hug. "Thank you golfball."
Then heard one of the objects from the LOL speak up. "But didn't flower destroy the recovery center?"
"Dont worry Grassy, I have a backup."
"What? You mean we had another recovery center and you didn't tell me?" Firey said angrily.
"I would have told you, but you were so caught up in Leafy's death that there was no way I could have told you. I also didn't want to approach you after I saw what you did to Flower." Golfball replied.
"What did you do to Flower?" I asked.
"Uh, I'll uh, tell you later." Firey said to me.
"Well then, what are we waiting for? Lets go!"
"OH NO YOU DON'T!" Said a very unique voice.
"Why not?" I said furiously.
"I'm not going to let you make me the most hated object!" Puffball said, growing bigger with every word. "I deserve to be Loved and admired, I deserve to win BFDI, and I deserve that prize!"
Suddenly, the Announcer appeared out of the sky. "Actually, you don't."
Everyone gasped.
"What do you mean I don't?!"
"You were eliminated because the viewers thought you were being selfish for putting your own selfish desires before your team." He spoke as emotionless as ever.
Puffball looked like she was about to do something terrible, when suddenly a giant UFO came out of the sky and crushed her. Everyone stared silently.
"Well, that was anticlimactic." Someone said.
"Aww, seriously?" David said, causing Dora to say a bunch of stuff in spanish angrily.
"Wow, the weird speaker box Just saved our lives!"
"You're welcome. Oh, and don't call me a weird speaker box."
"Well now that that's over, lets go recover Autumn!" I shouted.
"YEAH!"
.
.
.
"...Well, here it is." Golfball pointed with her foot at an old HPRC." I would have mentioned it much sooner if I hadn't forgotten all about it."
I hesitated. What if she hadn't been cured?
"Go ahead Leafy." Firey said. I reached for his hand and smiled.
I felt another hand grab the hand I still had free. "We oir here to help yoiu." Bubble said.
"You don't need to worry" Said a voice behind me. I looked behind me and saw Pencil with Pen and Match.
I saw pin smiling from behind me too. "Leafy, I'm sorry Ive been so cruel. I would love to be friends with you again if you can forgive me. Oh, and teardrop you support Leafy too, right?" Teardrop nodded. "And you too needy?"
SLAP!!!! "Don't call me needy! But yes."
"I support you too!" Said ice cube.
"Me too!" Said book.
everyone else started talking at once.
"Gee, thanks everyone! I-I really don't know what to say, I mean-"
"Just get it over with aleady!" Snowball shouted from the back of the group.
"Alright, alright."
I typed out Autumn's name and began to crank.
"Leafy! I didn't know if you were going to recover me or not after all I've done, but you did!"
Then I got to hug my sister as everyone in the factory cheered.
