“Why Did You Save Me? You’re The Bad Guy.”

Summary:

What if….Lucy was the one to nearly fall to her death while General/Sweet Mayhem was the one who saves her?

Notes:

Yeah despite it not being good unlike the first movie, The LEGO Movie 2 is one of my all time favourite movies.

With a catchy soundtrack, the plot twists being really good and the characters are also really good too.

But right now, I’m going to cover a scene you’ll know too well.

And that is the scene where after their fight, General Mayhem’s face is revealed and Lucy saves her.

So yeah enjoy the fanfic everybody!

Side Note: this fanfic is based on a deleted scene for this movie which is General/Sweet Mayhem saving Lucy from falling to her death.

And yeah, it actually did happened in that deleted scene.

Work Text:

Lucy was able to sneak through the walls of the castle as she hears General Mayhem telling a joke to two royal guards.

“So, then the centaur says, that’s not the half I’m talking about.” She said which causes the two guards to laugh.

After hearing the conversation, Lucy talks to her boyfriend Emmet and his new friend Rex Dangervest on the headset.

“Okay, target detected. I’m closing in.” She said to the two boys.

Meanwhile both Emmet and Rex are going through the tunnels in order to get to the wedding cake that the wedding’s going to be held at.

“10-4, good buddy.” Rex said to Emmet

“10-4 you, good buddy.” The master builder said to his new friend.

“Your the good buddy, buddy.” Rex said again.

then the two of them sees Bruce Willis {who you guys don’t know died back in 2020. R.I.P Bruce.}

“Is that Bruce Willis?” Emmet asked.

“Hey, guys.” The action star said to the two boys.

“{laughs} Good one, Bruce Willis!” Rex said while Lucy is getting annoyed at their conversation.

So after a giant bunny and a giant carrot hops through the castle, this gives Lucy the opportunity to go to the suite, and deactivate the weapon that’s setting up a forcefield.

“Go to the bridal suite without getting brainwashed. Think hard thoughts.” She said to herself.

But then while saying “Brood” 4 times, she is stopped by one of the royal guard.

“Did you just say brood?” The guard asked her.

“No, bride! I need to see the bride.” Lucy said while lying to him.

“I’m sorry, no entry allowed. Who are you?” The guard asks her again.

“Who, me? {laughs} I’m your worst nightmare!” Lucy replied.

“You’re me when I’m late to school, and i forgot my homework and my pants are made of pudding?” The guard said while being confused at what she said.

“No, i don’t.” Lucy said.

So with no other choices, she kicks the guard in the face.

Which knocks him out!
————————————————————————————————————————————————
After that brawl, she puts on his costume and knocks him out with a lollipop staff.

So that she can disguise herself as a royal guard and blend into the environment until the time is right.

Then she goes to the bridal suite where she sees General Mayhem having a chat with the queen.

“Mayhem! Is everything in order for the ceremony?” Queen Watevra asked her.

“Yes, i will operate everything here from this home entertainment centre.” General Mayhem replies while pointing at a Phone.

“There it is.” Lucy said to herself upon seeing the phone.

Then she watches as Batman and the queen continues to flirt with each other.

“They brainwashed Batman. Wow they’re good, because he is dense.” She said to herself again.

But luckily while walking towards the phone, The Ice Cream Man stops the two of them from saying “Totally” a lot.

“Final totally. And end it. We gotta get upstairs. The show’s starting.” He said to the newlyweds.

“Mayhem, do the boopity-bop-bop.” The queen tells the general.

Then the lighting in the room turns dark as behind the wall of it, is a elevator.

“Bring down the house, my queen.” General Mayhem said to the queen.

“This house is about to get tore up.” Queen Watevra said.

Before the elevator closes and sends them to the top level of the wedding cake.

And once their gone, this gives Lucy the opportunity to knock Mayhem out with a lollipop staff and deactivate the phone.

But before she can, it turns out Mayhem expected that she would be here and proceeds to point the sticker gun at her.

“We’ve been expecting you.” The general said to Lucy.

“Then expect {takes down two more guards} the unexpected!” Lucy yelled.

And so with the two guards down, it looks like there’s going to be a brawl between Lucy and General Mayhem.

“Did you expect this?” Mayhem said while shooting stickers out her gun at the master builder.

“Yes!” Lucy said while trying to hit Mayhem with the lollipop staff.

“Well, i expected your expecting our expecting.” Mayhem said while stopping Lucy from deactivating the phone.

Which leads to her get knocked out and landing on a couch.

“And i expected your expecting of my expecting your…..wait, now I’m lost.” Lucy said while constructing a giant piano mallet.

In retaliation, Mayhem makes a baton by using two talking stars.

Then they both swing their weapons at each other.

But this causes both of their weapons to be destroyed.

“I feel dizzy.” One of the star said before it vomits out rainbow glitters.

So without their weapons, the brawl pretty much became a fist fight.

And to make matters worse, during the fist fight, Lucy accidentally dropped the headset that she needs to use to talk to Emmet and Rex.

And without it they pretty much think that she’s been brainwashed by the peoples of the Systar System.
Just like their other friends. Which are Benny, Batman, Unikitty and Metalbeard. ————————————————————————————————————————————————
Then the battle takes a turn for the worst as the two of them starts accusing eachother of who attacked the other one.

With Lucy accusing Queen Watevra and the Duplos for attacking Bricksburg.

While Mayhem accuses her of having Bricksburg attack the Duplos.

Then they start to accuse each other of who started the war in the first place!

And just when the battle couldn’t get anymore worse, Lucy pulls out a heart bomb.

“Well, now I’m gonna end it.” Lucy said.

“Hello!” The heart bomb says while Lucy spins in around.

But just when it was about to hit the phone, Mayhem pushes it away like it was a volleyball.

And then….

{Boom!}

The explosion not only caused Mayhem to hit the ground.

But it also caused Lucy to almost fall off the platform.

But luckily she was able to grab onto a beam at the last second.

A beam that was starting to fall apart.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
She didn’t know what happened, all she could remember was getting hit by the explosion alongside Mayhem.

And now she’s clinging onto the orange beam of the platform.

And by the looks of it, if she let’s go then it pretty much means that she’s going to fall to her death.

But she isn’t going to give up on this plan, so she tries her best to climb back onto the platform.

But the more she tries, the more chance that the beam will fall apart and send her to her death.

And even when she was about to grab the edge of the platform, she couldn’t reach it do to how limited her movement was while holding onto the beam.

“Hopefully, it can’t get any worse.” Lucy said to herself.

But then she hears Mayhem getting up from the explosion and sees her shadow moving towards her.

And this causes her to think that if she reaches her then she’s going to kill her.

By shooting her in the face with a sticker gun which would cause her to let go of the beam and fall to her death.

So she tried grabbing onto another beam in order to pull herself back up to safety before Mayhem can get up to her.

But by the time she nearly grabbed onto the second one, it was too late.

As Mayhem was already here.

“Oh great, what are you going to do? Shoot me?” Lucy asked angrily.

But instead of pulling her gun out, Mayhem reaches her arm out to Lucy.

Much to Lucy’s shock.

“Quick, take my hand, before the beam is fully broken.” Mayhem said.

This causes Lucy to have a million question on her mind.

Like why is Mayhem doing this?

Why isn’t she attacking her, even though they had a fist fight a few minutes ago?

Why is she suddenly being nice to her?

And why is she trying to save her.

But those were the questions that Lucy could think, before suddenly the beam breaks.

And she begins to fall to her death.

This is it.

She was going to die.

She was going to die by falling.

But then, while she was screaming and before she hits the ground.

She was suddenly grabbed by someone as she begins to be pulled back to the platform.

Then she takes a look at who saved her.

And much to her surprise, it was General Mayhem using all of her mights and strengh to take her back to the upper platform.

“You’re actually saving me.” Lucy said.

“Well, i couldn’t let you die after what happened.” Mayhem said to her.

Then once they get back to the upper platform, they both began to breathe over a near death experience that Lucy had.

And after a minute of just breathing, Lucy talks to Mayhem.

“Can’t believe you saved me. Thank you General Mayhem.” She said.

“Actually, general Mayhem is not my real name.” The general said.

Then she takes off her mask and reveals her face to Lucy.

Which causes her to be more surprised about her.

“My real name is Sweet Mayhem. Plus I’m also shocked that you do care. I knew there was some sweetness under that darkness.” She said to Lucy while being happy.

“But your the bad guy, okay? Bad guys don’t save heroes.” Lucy said being confused.

“Maybe in your world. But here, we don’t see it that way.” Sweet Mayhem said.

“Ok, I’m still confused about what’s going on. Are you guys telling the truth about not being evil?” Lucy asked.

“Yeah, and I’ll only explain it to you if you come with me.” Mayhem said.

While Lucy was a bit Skeptical about going with the person who attacked her, it seems like she has no choice.

And so she and Sweet mayhem enters the elevator as it goes up to the wedding.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
Now it was time for Sweet Mayhem to blow up the truth bomb.

“For years, we’ve tried to join you, to play with you. But you’ve always pushed us away. Now all of our fighting has brought us to the brink of Armamageddon.” Sweet Mayhem said to Lucy.

“You mean, you knew about Emmet’s dream too?” Lucy asked.

“Yes. But this wedding can change all that. Bring us together and stop Armamageddon. It’ll make everything awesome again.” She replied.

and so once they step outside of the wedding cake, lucy sees how everyone is happy for the wedding.

Then comes the most biggest secret ever.

As when Lucy and Mayhem looks at the queen.

She turns back into her original form.

And it turns out to be the heart that Emmet made when the Duplos came to Bricksburg 5 years ago.

And with this information out of the way, Lucy starts to feel how wrong she was of accusing the Systar System as the bad guys.

“The queen was form Emmet.” Lucy said being shocked.

“Those bricks inspired our world. We exist because of you. You started it.” Sweet Mayhem said to Lucy.

“We started it?” Lucy asked.

“You started everything. We look up to you. Always have.” The unmasked general replied with a smile.

And so jsut like that Lucy begins to smile as well.

“Thanks again, for saving my life back at the bridal suite, Sweet Mayhem.” Lucy said to her new friend happily.

“Your welcome. As that’s what friends do, they look out for each other. And they care for each other.” Sweet Mayhem said.

And so the two of them hug.

Until they are interrupted by the arrival of Lucy and Emmet’s other friends.

Which are Unikitty, Metalbeard and Benny.

“Wyldstyle!” Metalbeard said happily.

“Where have you been?” Benny asked Lucy.

“Oh, you guys aren’t brainwashed?” Lucy asks her other friends.

“Brainwashed? No! We’re just happy. It’s so much more fun here.” Unikitty replied to the question.

“There are so many more spaceships on this adventure! And yet not nearly enough.” Benny said.

“Wait, if you guys are good, then who’s the bad guy?” Lucy asks Sweet Mayhem.

“Oh, Let’s not worry about who the bad guy is now, as we still need to get through the wedding.” She replied.

“Ok, if you say so, friend.” Lucy said as she feels relief about how wrong she was.

But what everybody doesn’t know is that there was a bad guy after all.

Not just any bad guy, but a twist villain by the name of Rex Dangervest.

Aka Emmet from the future.
