In the adult AU (the 10 years later when the Nigel and Wally saw their negatives again)
Did the negatives kidnapped their kids?! (That’s what I believe what happened. Sorry if I didn’t read that right or understand what was happening)
If so, how did the originals gotten them back?
You mean this pic, right?
Yes, NegaWally (AGAIN I'M NOT WRITING THE REVERSED NAMES BECAUSE IT MAKES MY BRAIN HURT SO I'LL JUST ADD A NEGA BEFORE THE NAME DEAL WITH IT) had Penny and Sami kidnapped from their world and taken to the Negaverse. Mostly to trick Nigel and Wally and force them to go back to the upside down for a final showdown.
And then, there's this little thing... how to say it...
Sami doesn't exist in the Negaverse.
And NegaWally wanted a "spawn" to brainwash, someone with his same blood who could one day take control of their world and rule it with NegaPenelope on their side still guiding them.
Because in this world, NegaPenelope is NegaWally's second, NOT NegaNigel (and this makes him MAD).
But then, why take Penny too? Easy: because even if people are the opposite of each other, somehow the power and capabilities stay the same. So, if NegaPenelope can be a good ally for his cause, with some forcing Penny could become one, too.
Also let's remember that NegaHoagie, NegaAbby and NegaKuki are all dead, somehow, so they're out of the picture.
The only one remaining are these.
[tw: death mention under the read more and end of my Negaverse]
There is a final showdown that will take place between them, but somehow the Negaverse people will block the pool passage just after Nigel and Wally are in, so it's just these two against the others.
Stuff happens but the main point is: NegaWally finds out NegaKuki had a kid and that NegaNigel killed them and gets MAD. He tries to kill him but ??? gets between them and gets killed before NegaNigel. Nigel and Wally keep fighting them, using this new hostility between their other selves against them, while Sami and Penny take care of NegaPenelope.
More stuff happens and NegaWally is about to be hit but NegaNigel gets inbetween and dies protecting him. This makes NegaWally REALLY mad (for the first time he shows emotions for someone) but after some fighting he accidentally gets hit to death too.
I imagined this last scene of NegaWally dragging himself to NegaNigel's body, managing to hold his hand while letting out his last breath.
Nigel and Wally get the kids and go back to their world, but for a while they don't talk to each other and also need some therapy; it's not really good to see yourself die in front of your eyes.
Fake.
He imitated someone in an old show he once saw. Something about space and evil people conquering it and one day they meet their "nice" selves who defeat them... yeah, sure...
As a teen he had a thought of growing a real one, but he needed a "baby face" as much as he could to have people fall for his "redemption". And it worked!
Until he was taken in again.
But as he got freed once more...
He went for the real stuff. And something told him his counterpart would hate it.
He was right on that.
I got to know what's going on with Nega!Joey and Nega!Wally. What's their relationship like? How is their home life? What was Joey doing while Wally was unavailable? How and why did Joey join DNK ? Would Joey even have remembered his brother if he went away for years while he was a baby?
Again: sorry for using regular names and sometimes putting "negative" before, I already have problems with spelling, and doing that with inverted names is just impossible (cries in chaos).
[Warning: abuse, manipulation, violence]
Before we start, a little thing: the DNK actually stopped existing after operation P.O.O.L., and the kids decided to create something that could resemble the KND... buuut never actually worked because kids in that world are just too bad. So they called themselves Kids Next Door but did little to nothing to save kids.
Penny was the one that, after convincing Wally, would bring the DNK back and keep it running even after Wally got incarcerated again by the GKND, that, in this world, ACTUALLY want to save planets from unruly kids and cruel adults. They actually believe kids and adults can live together and cooperate.
That being said, let's jump to NegaWally and NegaJoey.
Their family is a mess. Their father never spends time with them and actually thinks they're just mistakes and hates them to the core. Their mother tries her best to take care of them and protect them from Sydney, who won't hesitate to beat them, Wally especially.
In this AU, the main reason Wally created the DNK was so his father would finally calm down and look at him as something more once he would have kids work for him.
It didn't work, so he just went on and became even more unhinged and cruel to everyone.
When he was captured and sent to the Broccoli mines, he had time to study a new plan to take control of his minions and the world again.
Meanwhile, Joey was left in a worse household, his father being even worse, drinking and beating both of them.
Joey would grow up resenting him, resenting his mother, who he saw as a "pathetic passive coward" and his brother, who was always brought up as a joke because he failed his domain.
He joined the KND to escape his house, and after a bit no one would DARE to joke about his brother, because he would beat the shit out of them.
He doesn't talk, and doesn't know ASL, so no one can communicate with him... but Penelope.
Penelope was the first one who actually talked about his brother as a hero, as someone to look up to. She was the only one he allowed to talk about Wally around him.
Wally returned home at 17, after 7 years in the mines, and he looked... different. He was calm, collected, didn't look like the ruthless leader everyone talked about. Well... until he broke his father's arm in front of them when he tried to hit him. His mother didn't allow Joey around Wally while he was at home after that, and Wally didn't seem too interested in Joey. He was more interested in Penelope, actually.
Negative Sector V 2.0 would be the key to lure the normal kids and teens into their world again, but this time it was the GKND of BOTH sides that would help stopping NegaWally again and this time, they would put him into a catatonic state so there was NO CHANCE he would try and do anything else.
Years pass, the DNK are still running because Penelope kept them up, using Joey as she pleased since the boy was in love with her.
He's now cruel, violent, a silent rage ready to strike, ready to do anything for her, even... find a way to free Wally again.
The plan was started by Penelope, Joey would take "care" of any guard around and Nigel would finally wake Wally up so he could take his final revenge to the world. Both worlds, actually.
Joey was having second thoughts, and actually tried to stop Wally. To keep him under control, Wally forced him to kill their parents and burn their house down, just to then love bomb him so that Joey would see him as the only person in the world to depend on.
Nigel and Wally (in your negative sector V AU) are on the same basketball team??😭
How does Nigel feel about this exactly? Does he try to act like everything is fine and continue on with the sport? Does Wally constantly taunt Nigel and make his presence known around him? Or does Nigel just try to avoid Wally like the plague?
(This is such angst material for my bald son and I’m in for it)
This took so long sorry!
Lizzie is always at Nigel's practice, watching him from the seats, so Wally has to be careful if he wants to get closer to him.
Unfortunately, he managed to.
