Ask AI: Write a sad, creepy, and scary alternative ending to The Emperor's New Groove (2000 film).

Emperor Kuzco, now a more compassionate ruler due to his experiences with Pacha, quickly grew bored of being good. He started drifting back into his old ways. Contrary to the original ending, he never clears out the jungle for his pool but builds a golden palace in the heart of the city, as grand as his ego. One stormy night, the vials of Yzma's potions, left behind in her lair, began to react strangely with the natural elements, causing them to tumble and crash into one another. A large beam of light burst forth from the abandoned lair, flooding the night sky with an eerie glow. Out of this arose a terrifying beast, a fusion of the animals present in Yzma's potion vials. It was larger than anything Kuzco's kingdom had ever seen. Its eyes glinted red, and it shrieked a monstrous roar that echoed throughout the empire. The creature held a vendetta against Kuzco for his part in Yzma's downfall, and it sought revenge on the conceited emperor. This turn of events made Yzma, who was no more than a kitten now, smile with sinful delight. She watched the beast ravage the city from her hiding, silently reveling in Kuzco's misery. The palace storm gates crash open, the once lush and vibrant city now a wasteland. The familiar sight of his kingdom in peril and his people in terror finally shook Kuzco from his prideful stupor. He realized the gravity of his mistakes, but it seemed too late. He reached out to Pacha, who, despite all circumstances, was willing to give Kuzco another chance. Together, they hatched a plan to lead the beast out of the kingdom, but first, Kuzco had to admit his mistakes to the kingdom people publicly, to accept his grave mistakes and show sincerity in atoning them. They succeeded in luring the monstrosity out, but at a significant cost, Pacha was gravely injured, and Kuzco was left alone to face his karma. As a last resort, he consumed one of Yzma's potions, transforming into a fierce jaguar-like creature. Using his newfound strength, Kuzco fought the beast and managed to defeat it. With its last breath, it changed back into the vials of potion that created it. Pacha, unfortunately, succumbed to his injuries, leaving Kuzco alone with his guilt and regret. The kingdom people forgave Kuzco in memory of Pacha's sacrifice. Kuzco transformed back into a human but was left permanently scarred and humbled by the events. From then on, he ruled with fairness and wisdom, always remembering the friend who had given his life for him. The once exuberant kingdom now had a sustained air of sadness, a constant reminder of their faults and the price paid for their redemption. Little Yzma, still a kitten, disappeared into the shadows, relishing the melancholy that now governed Kuzco's life.
