"That means I can''t use my powers if I''m not willing to sacrifice myself!" Lu said with frustration. "You''re out of your mind."
"If you can''t, you''ll die anyway," Lolita La''ra said. "I have given you the protagonist powers that I have read from mangas and comics. So, yes, you have to be more altruistic than you are now in order to use your powers. And also, it seems I have created a villain for you. Do you see that porcelain boy over there? Yes, she is. She will probably be your villain, just because I stole her first kiss."
"What did you do?" Lu stood up from the ground and helped Oatmeal up. "Why did you kiss her anyway? Oh, you mean you had to give the powers that way. But wait a minute, you didn''t give the powers by kissing. And I still can''t even use them."
"She was naked, and I couldn''t control myself," Oatmeal said.
"She was a boy!?" Lu exclaimed.
"She was nineteen. At that age, some people start families in some places. I won''t apologize for my sexual attractions. I would have even made out with a cat, since all beings have the same attractive, feminine, humanoid-like shapes. I don''t care."
"You''re beyond anything..." Lu said.
"It''s not the time to chatter about these mundane things. First, we must figure out a way for all of you to survive. Fight her, and I am going to get my clothing fixed."
Lu WoWood looked at the destruction and said, "I can''t fight that thing."
"You won''t need to fight La''ra. You need to destroy the meteor-spear thing. After that, I can be your boyfriend, since you are into these things."
"Oatmeal!"
"I am just making things up, since I know I am mad. Now, go and find a way to destroy the meteor-spear thing, while Lolita La''ra is focusing on me."
Lu WoWood waited for a minute and then left. Oatmeal was standing on the street, and the crowd was seeing only the aftermath. It seemed to Oatmeal that the crowd couldn''t see the Magicka of Lolita La''ra. Or, did they even see Lolita La''ra? She didn''t mind those questions, when Oatmeal found Lolita La''ra in front of her. "She is not used to handling infinity, that''s the reason she must be angry. It shouldn''t be from my French kiss, should it?"
Lolita La''ra was in front of her, wearing elegant clothing with a modern design and kingdom aesthetics. Her Magicka was near her. The Magicka dashed, in a snap of a second, and was about to punch Oatmeal in the face. Seeing the punch, Oatmeal thought, "I should stop reading Jojo!"
The Magicka punched her face so hard that she broke apart the street! Oatmeal couldn''t block the subsequent punches, and she was beaten mercilessly. Lolita La''ra came near Oatmeal, seeing her on the ground. "Why didn''t you die? Why didn''t you fight back?"
"Because it''s against my religion," Oatmeal said, waking up.
"What is your religion, then?" Lolita frowned.
"I..." Oatmeal said, looking at her. "I am a coward."
"You are pathetic. In the meantime, I have learned to control the powers you have given me. If I were a human, this kind of power would destroy me into a bunch of dust. But since I am a porcelain doll, I can resist this infinite power. Why you brought me and gave me those powers is beyond my understanding, though. But I can control it however I want. I have found my motivation; I will use this power to create my own universe and live happily ever after with King Lea."
"Can you please help Lu WoWood destroy the meteor thing at least? That would be lovely."
Lolita La''ra looked up at the sky, and the meteor was almost going to hit the ground. "Oh, this? I can give you a hand."
Lolita La''ra snapped her fingers, and in a snap of a second, the meteor-spear thing hit the ground so hard that it destroyed all the buildings, streets, and its power exploded every corner of that side of Toronto.
"I should have spawned Pinocchio instead!" Oatmeal said, finding herself lying under the soil. The power of the meteor had pushed her so hard that she found herself in the depths of the soil. It was as if she was lying in a tomb or something. She looked around and said, "It''s complete darkness. This porcelain boy made me realize something. Every time I give my powers to someone, however poor they may be, they always end up destroying the fabric of life, no matter what! Or, I haven''t met someone who isn''t power-hungry in eternal possibilities. I don''t want to generalize, though," she said, starting to dig her way up. "I will get out of this dark soil and figure something out."

She looked around and did not find anything destroyed on the surface. There were no city though, only wildereness and animals doing their own thing. "How long have I been sleeping under the soil? Thousand years, ten thousand years? Those years are meaningless to me, but I wonder what happened to Lolita La''ra? That means I have fullfiled my promise of not using my powers for a week. Let me see what is she doing? I guess she was just sitting in a throne and having an elegant pose like a true cliche villan but let me see."
Oatmeal simply decided to be near Lolita La''ra and it simply happened.
She was in a beautiful garden, the sky was purple, and there, she saw two strangers in a garden. Oatmeal walked towards them and decided to learn their names. Their names were Lea and Lolita. When she looked around, Oatmeal saw the garden, but nothing else in this universe. When she was at the door, waiting for someone to greet her, no one did. So, Oatmeal went in, jumping off through the door. She saw purple flowers in a row and a small building at the center of the large garden. She shouted at Lolita La''ra, "Hello, La''ra, did you miss me!?"
As she said that, Lolita La''ra spawned in front of her. "Who are you? Do I know you?"
"What''s going on here? Don''t you remember me, Lolita? We fought for a short time, I think, ten thousand years ago? Are we in another dimension or something?"
"Who is this man, La''ra?" It was King Lea, who looked old but attractive to see. She had gray purple hair and wore luxurious white clothing. She looked like an attractive king who had spent the rest of her life in peace.
"My fight with Lolita La''ra didn''t finish, so I have come to bring it to an end," Oatmeal said, but hearing those words, they didn''t like Oatmeal''s attitude.
"Don''t start talking about war. We have been living here, in peace, for eons. I don''t want to hear those words here," King Lea said.
"Lolita, what happened to you?" Oatmeal didn''t understand what was going on and thought, "That makes sense. She must have erased her whole memory just to be with King Lea. And time is nothing for me, but to Lolita, I think she simply forgot about our fight. That makes sense, at least, for me."
"What happened to me? I am just serving my beloved King Lea, that''s all. I wonder if you are an inter-dimensional alien or something? How did you learn about me and this place, which is very hard to find?"
"I am... I have known some gods, I guess."
"Oh, I see," King Lea said, "Strangers don''t travel across this dimension, which Lolita La''ra created for me to live in, forever. And I find this place simple, fun, and satisfying." King Lea was smiling as purely as she could, which Oatmeal simply wanted to know about their inner psyche, for fun.
"That''s awesome," Oatmeal said, leaning against the stone wall. "I hope she''s not manipulated by Lolita La''ra''s powers. Let me focus on her emotional realm."
"...I wish she won''t leave this place. I, King Lea, am desperate in Lolita''s claws! I have been living in this place for eons, and I just want to die peacefully. That doll is not going to stop loving me, no matter how hard I try to escape this heavenly prison. Help me, traveler, oh, help me, bring me the peace I''ve been looking for..." King Lea was thinking about these things and, at the same time, saying, "Everything is awesome," to Oatmeal!
Oatmeal then looked at Lolita La''ra and decided to know about her inner psyche, and... And... AND... There was nothing in her psyche, and her inner realm. Oatmeal decided to focus on her again.
"..."
That was all Lolita La''ra was thinking, or feeling about. She was simply nothing.
"Oh, well..." Oatmeal said. "King Lea, it was an honor to meet you and your servant, Lolita La''ra. Can you show me the way to leave this purple dimension, because I couldn''t find the exit? Can you show me, King Lea?"
"I can-" Lea''s words were cut off by La''ra.
"I can show you, follow me," Lolita La''ra said, smiling.
Once Lolita La''ra left through the exit door and stepped outside, Oatmeal grabbed King Lea from behind and ran in the opposite direction of Lolita La''ra. Oatmeal thought, "Psycho doll has trapped this man. I will help her! What should I do? What should I do? Oh, I will throw her as far as I can."
Oatmeal said, "I will throw you so fast that you will turn into a bunch of dust, and will reincarnate into another life, I don''t know."
King Lea said, "Hurry then!"
Oatmeal threw the king afar. In a snap of a second, King Lea turned into a bunch of dust by penetrating the atmosphere of the dimension. Oatmeal looked proud of what she did, and when she looked back, the Magicka, Oatmeal fought eons ago, appeared out of nowhere and hit her in the neck. She found herself lying on the floor, and Lolita La''ra was on top of Oatmeal, stepping on Oatmeal''s butt.
"What did you do!?" Lolita La''ra exclaimed.
"I gave her a peaceful death, which is what she wanted! You can''t make people live forcefully just because it''s your crush," Oatmeal replied.
"It was not my crush, it was my father! I was dependent on her! What have you done? How will I be protected now? Who will take care of me now? What about me now?" Lolita La''ra asked, her voice filled with desperation.
"I thought you were the one taking care of the King. I now see that it''s vice versa," Oatmeal said.
"I don''t want to be alone! I don''t want to be alone!" Lolita La''ra kept saying, and at the same time, her Magicka was punching Oatmeal repeatedly. Being sickened by Lolita''s actions, Oatmeal grabbed the Magicka and kicked it in the chest, and the Magicka hit the house.
"Lolita La''ra, I have given you almost an infinite amount of power, and yet you are still such a crybaby. Haven''t you realized that only you can help yourself? No one will save you from your broken perspective about yourself," Oatmeal said.
"I want my parents!" Lolita La''ra shouted. "I need my parents. I will kill you and torture you forever just because of what you did to me. I want my toys back!"
"Then bring it on," Oatmeal said, taking a position to fight back.
