A few months had past. Timpani did whatever she could to 'help' Dimentio, choosing his outfits and doing his hair every morning. A few people began to judge her for hanging out with him, but they assumed she was only doing it because she felt sorry for him and because she was oh so good.

But the truth, she had actually grown to like him. He actually had become her friend.

Once day the headmaster caught Dimentio in the hallways during passing time.

Headmaster: "Dimentio, I need to speak with you!"

Dimentio looked up.

Dimentio: "Yes? What is it?"

The headmaster handed him a letter.

Headmaster: "I have told the ancients of you, and they were very impressed. They'd like you to go all the way over to the interdimensional town of Flipside to meet with one of them."

Dimentio's eyes went wide.

Dimentio: W-wow! Sir, really?! This is....this is everything I've ever dreamed of! Oh, thank you! Thank you!"

The headmaster nodded, and walked off.

Dimentio looked down at the letter.

All his hopes and dreams were within his grasp.

He took the letter and made his way to the next class.

Later that night Timpani helped him pack.

Timpani: "I can't believe you're going! This is so exciting!"

Dimentio: "Yeah, but its only just one day."

Timpani: "For now. But who knows! They'll like you so much! OMG! You could move there, and be helping them every day! Your life is already so on track!"

He smiled a soft smile. It really was.

Timpani giggled as she placed the strange poncho and hat she gave him all that time ago into a separate bag. Even though she originally gave it to him as a joke, he really liked it, so they kept it. But don't worry, she forbade him from wearing it at school.

Timpani: "I mean, your life is about to change. Maybe forever. You are already getting your dream!"

Dimentio: "Yeah.... hey Timpani?"

Timpani: "Yes?"

Dimentio folded his clothes, then sat on his bed and faced her.

Dimentio: "What's your dream?"

She froze and looked up at the ceiling.

Timpani: "Uh.... well, it's kinda cheesy...."

Dimentio: "Aw, Come on. Tell me."

She smiled to herself.

Timpani: "Well... I guess I just want to find the perfect guy, and be happy. Get married, be loved by all.... all that jazz."

Dimentio softly chuckled to himself.

Dimentio: "Well, you being you, I say your dream is pretty likely to come true."

She sighed. He gave her a slightly concerned look. Something was obviously wrong.

Dimentio: "Hey, what is it?"

She let out a sigh.

Timpani: "I don't know. It's just, my dream's kinda dumb. And, it seems small compared to yours."

They stood for a moment in awkward silence, when Dimentio broke the silence.

Dimentio: ".....H-hey, Timpani. Let's go somewhere."

She gave him a confused look.

Timpani: "Huh? Where?"

Dimentio: "You'll see. Come on!"

He grabbed her hand, and brought her outside.

Timpani: "Dimmy, where are we going?"

Dimentio: "Shh. Somewhere special. Just be quiet. I don't think we're allowed to be out of our dorm rooms after hours."

They both walked about a mile before Timpani's complaining became to much.

Timpani: "Dimmy, my feeeeeeeeet. How much longer?? Are we there yet?!?!"

Dimentio: "Timpani. It's only a two mile walk! Quit complaining!"

Timpani: "Two miles?!? Ughhhhh, you're killing me...."

He stopped and let out a breath, before kneeling down.

Dimentio: "Alright. Get on."

Timpani: "Huh? What are you doing?"

Dimentio: "What's it look like. I'm gonna carry you."

Timpani softly smiled at him, before getting on his back. He lifted her up, and carried her the last mile.

Timpani smiled as she grabbed his shoulders and pointed at all the pretty flowers. He couldn't help but chuckle at her.

He suddenly stopped.

Timpani: "Why'd you stop?"

He turned his head so he could see her out of the corner of his eye.

Dimentio: "We're almost there. But, can you.... can you close your eyes?"

She smirked, before closing her eyes.

Timpani: "Alright. But don't throw me off a cliff or something. I'm trusting you."

He smiled and started forward again.

Dimentio: "Ah ha ha, I'll try not to."

Timpani could feel the air begin to cool as he continued walking. She could smell....salt. And could feel a soft breeze blow through her hair.

Dimentio: "WHOA!"

Suddenly, they both tumbled to the ground.

Timpani opened her eyes and sat up, before breaking into a laughing fit.

Timpani: "Dimmy! Must you be so clumsy?"

Dimentio also sat up, rubbing his head.

Dimentio: "Sorry. Guess I tripped. I'm not very strong, and carrying you was hard. Ah ha ha!"

Timpani laughed, then sat up and looked around.

Timpani: "Where are we?"

Dimentio picked himself up, then helped her up as well. He stood behind her, placed a hand on one of her shoulders, and pointed out to the ocean.

She slowly looked around. She was at the base of some cliffs, near the sea. The sky above them was crystal clear, and the waves on the shore were present, but calm.

A ship was sailing in the distance.

Dimentio: "Well, when I was younger, sometimes father would be extra harsh on me, so I'd come out here to watch the ships. Then, when night came, I'd look up at the stars, wishing I could go to one of those distant, far off galaxies. Back then, that was my dream. To either sail off, or to fly away. To escape this world."

She gave him a sad look. He wanted to escape?

Timpani: "Dimmy....."

Dimentio: "Back then, I thought my dreams were stupid. But, they were mine. Your dream isn't 'dumb.' It's....it's sweet."

She lied back down and looked at the stars.

Timpani: "But.... I don't know. Yes, people love me, but do they love the real me? They just follow me around because it's what they've done their whole lives. I want to find someone who loves me for me."

Dimentio slowly lied down next to her.

Dimentio: "Hey..... I love the real you. And I know you'll find the one."

Timpani: "And if I don't?"

He slowly grabbed her hand.

Dimentio: "Well, then I'll be here for you. I'll always be here."

She leaned into him.

Timpani: "Promise?"

Dimentio: ".....I promise"

The next morning Timpani walked him over to the train station once the time came. He would be taking a train which would magically take him where he needed to go, since he had not yet learned to teleport. At the moment, the only thing he was capable of was summoning small projectiles and making items teleport. But, his teacher told him that he still had tons of potential.

Timpani: "Okay, remember! Make eye contact! And don't forget to tell them how wonderful they are. People love compliments! And just make sure to be yourself....but not to much."

Jacq wheeled himself over.

Jacq: "Dimentio, I'm really proud of you. And...and I bet dad's proud too."

Dimentio looked at his younger brother.

Dimentio: "You'll be alright on your own, right?"

Jacq: "Of course! I have Rose taking care of me!"

Rosemary shrugged, obviously not wanting to be there.

Rosemary: "Yeah...."

Everyone except Timpani walked off. Dimentio's train arrived. He picked up his bags and looked at it.

Dimentio: "This is really happening."

Timpani: "Yeah....I'm so happy for you. All your dreams are about to come true."

He then suddenly turned to Timpani.

Dimentio: "Come with me!"

Timpani: "Huh? Where?"

Dimentio: "To Flipside. To see the ancients! Come with me."

Timpani: "Wait, really?"

He nodded.

Dimentio: "Yes. Timpani, please, come with me, To the Town of Flipside."

She slowly looked around, before nodding.

Timpani: "Alright! Now, hurry up! We're gonna miss the train!"

The two quickly boarded the train, and were off for Flipside.

Once the train arrived, they were welcomed by so many cheerful faces.

(AN: Music Start)

Crowd: "One short day
In the town of Flipside....."

Timpani: "Oh! I've always wanted to see Flipside!"

Crowd: "One short day
In the town of Flipside....."

Dimentio and Timpani started looking around.

The place between dimensions..... it was so beautiful!

Crowd: "One short day, In the Town of Flipside!
One short day, full of so much to do.
Every way
That you look in Flipside
There's something exquisite
You'll want to visit
Before the day's through!"

Dimentio excitedly looked up at the tower.

Dimentio: "There's a tower as tall as a redwood tree!"

Timpani: "Dress Salons!"

Dimentio: "And Libraries!"

Timpani: "Shops!"

Dimentio: "Museums!"

Timpani and Dimentio: "A hundred strong....

There are wonders never seen before today!"

Timpani: "It's all grand!"

Dimentio: "And it's all grey!"

Timpani and Dimentio: "I think we've found the place where we belong!

I wanna be here and feel the joy!"

Dimentio: "So I'll be back for good someday!"

Timpani: "To make my life and make my way!"

Timpani and Dimentio: "But for today, we'll wander and enjoy...."

Crowd: "One short day
In the town of Flipside

One short day
To have a lifetime of fun!

One short day-"

Timpani and Dimentio: "And we're warning Flipside

Now that we're in here

You'll know we've been here

Before we are done!"

Timpani: "Come on Dimmy! Let's look around!"

(AN: Music Stop)

Timpani grabbed Dimentio's arm and pulled him into the nearest antique shop. She looked through all the items.

Timpani: "Whoa! All stuff in here is like, super rare! Oooh! Dimmy, check this out!"

She pulled up a black and white comic's mask.

Timpani: "It says here that this porcelain mask was made thousands of years ago, representing a perfectly balanced mix between light and dark."

She looked over at Dimentio.

Timpani: "You know, if you wore this with the purple and yellow clothes I gave you, you'd look like some cool Jester! Plus, with your Magic, you could be even cooler. I can see it now! 'Dimentio, the Charming Magician!'

He chuckled and took the mask in his hands.

It was smooth. He put it on and faced her.

Dimentio: "How does it look?"

They both giggled as he took it off and ran his hand over it.

Timpani: "I can see you like it. I'm gonna buy it for you! You're welcome."

She snatched it out of his hands and ran up to the register.

Dimentio: "No, you really don't- .....aaaaand, she's already buying it."

She walked back to him and smiled, handing the mask over. He chuckled and put it in the same bag he had the purple and yellow outfit she gave him in.

She took his hand and together, they went back outside.

(AN: Music start: 2:25)

Crowd: "What a way to be seeing the city,"

Timpani and Dimentio: "Where so many roam to..."

Timpani grabbed Dimentio's hand.

Timpani and Dimentio: "We'll call it home too."

Dimentio smiled back at her.

Timpani and Dimentio: "And then, just like now
We can say...."

They both looked into each other's eyes.

Timpani and Dimentio: "We're just two friends...."

Dimentio: "Two good friends."

Timpani: "No.

Two BEST friends....."

His eyes went wide, before he melted into a smile. Never has he felt so.... at home.

Everyone: "Sharing one wonderful
One...... short....-"

Random resident: "Merlon will see you now!"

Dimentio and Timpani smiled at each other.

Everyone: "DAY......."
