Since Blitz was small, his father forced him to train to become the best circus performer.

After several failed shows, Buckzo knew he had to think of solution, quickly.

Buckzo and Mammon ended up making a deal. Buckzo could use Mammon's son, Fizzarolli for his circus acts as long as he got half the profit in return.

Fizz was actually quite excited for this opportunity. He didn't see it as a job, but just another way to have fun.

Once Fizz and Blitz got paired up for a circus act duo, they really hit it off and immediately became best friends.

They did everything together.

They had sleepovers, played pranks on the other circus imps, took the horses nightly on joyrides, their fun was practically endless.

Until things began to change.

Fizzarolli became the star performer of the circus and everybody loved and adored him. He was the perfect circus imp. Even the other circus imps loved Fizz. Buckzo even went as far as calling him his very own son. And right in front of Blitz too.

Over time, Blitz began to feel left out. Just shoved to the side and left in Fizz's shadow. Blitz never hated him though. He still cared for Fizz and they were still best friends as the years went on.

Though they gradually began spending less and less time together due to Fizzarolli becoming more and more in high demand for other performances.

Fizzarolli was having a blast though. Practically the time of his life.

Once they reached their teenage years, things began to take a different turn.

Blitz had started to develop a crush on Fizzarolli.

His very first one ever.

Since this feeling was all brand new to him, he wasn't exactly sure how to act on it. So he tried his best to not let it show.

That became hard though, when Fizz would give him hugs or even just kindly smile his way. Blitz couldn't help but blush every single time.

Fizzarolli was oblivious to Blitz's feelings for him. He had no idea at all.

Which made things extra awkward once later on, Fizz made the suggestion that he and Blitz become friends with benefits.

The subject took Blitz by surprise, but he definitely didn't say no, given his romantic feelings for the imp.

But this only made things harder for Blitz. This only increased his genuine feelings further. So any time he would happen to see Fizzarolli flirting with other imps, he couldn't help but feel jealous in a way.

Blitz knew he couldn't go on like this forever. He had to do something.

So he decided to confess his feelings for Fizz on his birthday.

C'mon, Blitzo! You can do this! Just give Fizz the note and flower, and everything will be fine. . .

The imp worked up the courage before leaving his tent to go and confess his feelings to the star circus clown.

"Blitzo!" Barbie called out, "You're suppose to be helping me with mama! You know she's not feeling well."

"I know, Barb. I'll be there in a few minutes. I just gotta take care of somethin' first." Blitzo replied.

Barbie then noticed the letter and flower, "Ah, I see. Finally telling Fizzarolli your feelings, hmm?" she teased her twin.

"Sh-Shut up, Barb!!" Blitzo said all flustered as he walked away.

Once Blitzo finally reached the party tent, he peaked inside to see if Fizz was there yet.

And he was.

The star was being showered with gifts and affection. Even received a birthday card from Buckzo that read, Wish You Were My Son.

The longer Blitzo observed Fizzarolli, he couldn't help but lose the courage he once had moments ago.

I. . . I don't think I can do this. I mean, look at him. He's a star! And I'm. . . I'm just nothing. . . Fizz would never feel the same about me. . . Besides, I'd only bring down his image. There's no point. . .

Fizzarolli then finally noticed Blitzo peaking in and waved over at him with a big smile, genuinely excited to see his best friend.

Blitzo made the decision to not go through with the confession and immediately walked away.

As he did, he bumped into another circus imp who was carrying the birthday cake with all the candles ready and lit.

Unfortunately, the imp fell down with the cake and the candles lit the tent up into blazing flames immediately.

Everyone spread out into a panic.

Fizzarolli tried to make his way out, but stumbled upon some fireworks in a box that unfortunately blew up right in his face within a split second.

The entire tent was gone.

And Fizzarolli was terribly wounded.

His horns were now gone, as was one of his legs. And the rest of him was burning away to the bone.

Fizz saw his best friend not too far ahead and reached out for his help, but Blitzo turned the other way while holding one of his eyes.

Fizzarolli didn't understand why.

Why his best friend in the whole world left him for dead. . .

Blitzo unfortunately didn't know what else to do but run for help. He tried finding an adult to come help Fizz, but everyone seemed too busy running around in a panic to really pay attention.

In the mist of it all, Blitzo saw his mother's tent go up in a blaze as Barbie was right outside of it. He immediately ran over to check on them.

"BARBIE! - Are you okay? Where's mom?" Blitzo asked.

"MOM IS DEAD, BLITZO!" Barbie cried, "I couldn't get her out in time! She tossed me out! I overheard what some other imps said. YOU STARTED THE FIRE! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU! MOM IS DEAD BECAUSE OF YOU!" the twin yelled.

Blitzo was taken aback for a moment as his eyes welled up with tears, "B-Barb. . . I-I didn't mean to. . ."

"WELL, YOU DID! ALL BECAUSE OF YOUR DAMN JEALOUSY OVER FIZZ!" Barbie shouted before running off.

Blitzo looked around at all the chaos before him.

I. . .did this. . .?

Before leaving, he saw his mother's skull pendant on the ground and took it with him.

I'm sorry, mom. . .

~Note~
Just to clarify, I'm aware Mammon and Fizz are more than likely not actually related at all. But I just thought it'd be interesting to write about as if they were. Feel free to shoot some ideas for this down in the comments too!! Hope you all enjoy!! :3
