Ch. 1 A New Student

...

Life as we know it is not so simple when things get completely out of hand. That is what happened to me and a few of my friends this past year. We have been through countless of situations that put our very own lives at risk. I have seen many things that could make grown men cry and some that shake the earth's very core. But there is always one person behind it all.

The Town of Elmore had had its' ups and downs for the past year or so. When the down side rose up, it was one small blue figure to throw it back down. Accompanied by his friends on numerous occasions, they struck down the force of evil. But one day, when they were trying to stop a powerful being from breaking free, a mad tyrant named Tyrone slowed their progress and thus freed the very force they were trying to stop. Fortunately, the being wasn't fully free and had to lay back to regain his strength. The heroes were soon fleeing for their lives when the being sent out his minions which he called, Servants, after them. It has been over a year now. And they have had no words of the being's progress. The heroes have a break for now, but they still worry if the being will strike at any moment with full strength. The Town of Elmore is about to be in for a surprise soon enough...

"And that concludes my essay!" Gumball said as he looked up from reading a piece of paper. The kids looked on at him with strange looks. Gumball expected a round of applause, but none was given.

"Gumball, that was a very long and the most boring story I have ever heard in my life." Ms. Simian said.

"But Ms. Simian! What I wrote down was what actually happened to me!" Gumball complained.

"Mr. Watterson, I told you the subject of your essay and you failed to comply with it. It is an F for you." Ms. Simian said as she stopped twirling her pencil in between her fingers.

"But-" Gumball began.

"No buts, Mr. Watterson. Now go sit back down!" Ms. Simian ordered. Gumball groaned and dragged his feet to his desk.

"I believe you dude." Darwin said with a smile.

"Darwin, you were there with me when all this happened." Gumball said.

"Which is why I believe you!" Darwin said smiling ever so highly.

"The only people who believe us are Penny and Carrie." Gumball said as he shook his head at his fishy friend.

"But we were suppose to write about what happened to us over the summer." Penny whispered to him from the next seat over.

"Man... 8th grade blows..." Gumball said.

"Mr. Watterson!" Ms. Simian addressed sharply. "Would you like to share with the class?" Gumball shook his head.

"It's still about my story." he said.

"Well, we don't need to hear anymore of it!" Ms. Simian barked. The bell rang over the children's ears. The class hurriedly got up and rushed out the room.

Gumball concentrated into his mind.

'Linel... you there?' Gumball asked in his thoughts.

Your teacher is a real loud mouth...

'That's Ms. Simian for you. She has been like that for, I think, over 740 years?' Gumball explained.

Your town was still in development when she was young I guess...

'Maybe... I don't really care anymore.' Gumball sighed.

Either way, you are 13 years old now and you have been mostly paranoid over the summer... Limbo seems to be up to something, I agree. But we can't really say for sure...

'I still want to know... there have been minor reports on the news that involved the military and those creatures.' Gumball said to Linel.

You should focus on your life at the moment... When things get out of hand, you will be the first I notify...

'Of course I am. You live in my head.' Gumball frowned.

"Dude, you okay?" Darwin asked snapping Gumball out of his thoughts. "You are making all these strange faces." Gumball smiled to him.

"It's nothing." Gumball said.

Gumball and Darwin walked down the empty hallway of their school. Summer was over and they both had graduated from the 7th grade. Gumball barely passed by one point on his report card. He sighed as he kicked an empty can down the hall.

"What's the matter, dude?" Darwin asked.

"Well... it has been over a year now. We don't know when HE is going to strike!" Gumball said.

"Who's 'he'?" Darwin asked as he rubbed a fin on his head from confusion.

"Never mind..." Gumball said. "Come on, let's get to the cafeteria before the good food get's eaten up." The two boys jogged down the hall, jumped down the stairs and headed for the cafeteria.

As they entered the cafeteria, they were greeted with a surprise. Their classmates were gathered around someone. Chatter was among them. Gumball and Darwin exchanged glances and decided to get a better look.

"What's going on?" Gumball asked Terri as they walked up.

"There is this new kid I have never seen before! I think he is an exchange student!" Terri said with excitement. Gumball and Darwin exchanged glances and squeezed their way through. It was a difficult task, but they managed. Once they got through, Gumball fell on his face and Darwin landed on top of him.

"Whoa, easy there, guy." a voice said. Gumball knew that voice. He peeled his face off the floor and looked up. His eyes widened.

A purple cat with blazing purple eyes stood over him. He was wearing a full white hoodie but with a black cartoonish black skull that looked as if it was spray painted on him. He also wore black baggy jeans. Big DJ headphones hung around his neck.

*"Sup?" the cat greeted.

"Clin? What are you doing here?" Gumball asked as he dusted himself off. Clin shrugged.

"Nothing. Was just seeing how your school is." Clin said. The crowd went quiet. Gumball heard whispers behind him.

"How does Gumball know him?" a kid whispered.

"Are they cousins?" another said.

"Maybe he is Gumball's long lost brother?" another said. Clin looked at the crowd.

"Come on, dudes. Let's talk in private." Clin said as he pushed Gumball and Darwin by the crowd. Unfortunately for them, the crowd stalked them through the halls. "Ugh, am I really that big of a deal?" Clin asked.

"It's just that they have never seen another feline other then me and my mom." Gumball said as he stuffed his hands in his pockets.

"Really?" Clin pondered this.

"So what have you been up to?" Darwin asked. Clin shrugged.

"I am actually here to check up on you." Clin said.

"Oh, you don't need to. I am fine." Darwin said.

"I am talking about Gumball." Clin said.

"Why are you checking up on me?" Gumball asked raising an eyebrow.

"Because, it has been over a year since HIS goons have been sent out after us." Clin said.

"Causing trouble again?" a voice said as Gumball was about to reply. They looked up and saw Nary. The pink cat with emerald eyes was tapping her foot impatiently. She wore a pink tank top that revealed her mid section. She wore skinny blue jeans and black sneakers with white laces.*

"What are you waiting for?" Clin asked her with a bored look.

"For you to come back to the training grounds. You are the heir of our clan and yet you refuse to study on ninjutsu even more! I don't understand why?" Nary asked with a sigh.

"My ancestors are teaching me." Clin said. "I've gotten better since they helped me. They were right about the way my father teaches. So they improved it in a more fun way."

"By doing practical pranks around town?" Nary said as she walked toward them. The crowd behind them were even more curious, but they stayed where they were. "I heard what the store owner of the hot dog store said. 'They had mysteriously been replaced by twigs.' Ring any bells?" Clin, Darwin and Gumball chuckled.

"Did you really?" Gumball asked trying to hold back a giggle.

"You should have seen it." Clin said with a wink.

"Dude, excellent!" Darwin said. Nary cleared her throat to get their attention.

"We need to get back before Master Eroku tans our hides!" Nary said.

"So you followed me down to the school." Clin said with a sly grin.

"I know that look. Don't even think about proving me wrong." Nary said as she narrowed her eyes.

"Admit it, you wanted to break free from Master Eroku's teachings as well." Clin said. Nary looked away.

'Dammit.' she thought.

"Well, now that we are here, let's-" Clin began. But they were stopped by a screeching voice.

"What is going on here!" Ms. Simian barked. The grotesque baboon shambled her way through the crowd and set her eyes on Gumball. "I should have known."

"Who's the freak show?" Clin whispered to Gumball.

"That is my teacher, Ms. Simian." Gumball whispered back but with a groan as well. He knew what was coming next.

"And who are you two?" Ms. Simian asked as she set her eyes on Clin and Nary.

"Oh.. uh... we are umm... cousins!" Clin said.

"You are Gumball's cousins?" Ms. Simian asked as she glanced between Gumball and the two unknown felines. "I hardly doubt it."

"Listen, grandma." Clin said. The kids gasped. Clin ignored it and kept on going. "You have to forgive us. We just wanted to check up on him. He's been feeling very ill for the past few days." Ms. Simian's face was red now. They could have swear that they were seeing steam coming out of her ears.

"What... did.. you call me...?" Ms. Simian asked as she was ready to blow. Clin scratched his head.

"Err... I uh... I mean... forgive me dude, but we will talk more after school, bye!" Clin said quickly. He raised his hands and threw down smoke bombs. The hall was soon engulfed by smoke. People coughed as the smoke began to clear. Gumball waved away the smoke and looked around to see Nary and Clin disappearing around a corner.

'Well, I am in trouble now...' Gumball thought as he turned and looked at a now steaming mad Ms. Simian.

"They said they were your cousins... am I correct?" Ms. Simian asked with an eye twitch.

"Err... yeah?..." Gumball said. 'Uh oh...'

"7 hours detention for you, Mr. Watterson!" Ms. Simian screeched.

'Knew it...' Gumball thought with a defeated look.

"As for the rest of you! Get back to class!" Ms. Simian barked. The crowd quickly dispersed. "Mr. Watterson... you are coming with me to the principle's office!"

Gumball sat in a small single chair as the hairy Principle Brown yacked away.

"...It is high time you take major responsibility!" he said.

"But Principle Brown, it's not my fault they appeared!" Gumball argued.

"Nonsense, I heard them strictly say that they were your cousins!" Ms. Simian said standing next to Principle Brown.

"Mr. Watterson, you are the most mischievous student we ever had! Besides your father." Principle Brown said. "I am afraid you left me no choice. If you don't stop your mindless little pranks, it'll not be a detention for you. But expulsion." Gumball was confused by the word 'expulsion'.

"What's expulsion?" Gumball asked, tilting his head.

"It means you will be permanently removed from school." Principle Brown said as he took off his glasses and used his fur to wipe them clean.

"You mean, like no school? At all?" Gumball said with his hopes up.

"Forever and ever." Ms. Simian said.

Dude... you won't be able to spend quality time with your girlfriend...

'Really?' Gumball replied with horror.

Yep... and no career for you...

'How do you know this stuff?' Gumball asked the voice.

I pick up on these things...

Gumball was panicking now.

"Thank you for your time, Mr. Watterson. We will give a phone call home and tell them what we have discussed. Now if you will excuse me, I have some business to attend to." Principle Brown said. The door opened behind them as if on cue. Gumball turned around in his chair and felt his heart skip a beat.

'Oh no...' he thought with horror.

Seems like school is going to be a little more difficult now...

Gumball was least expecting this. Standing in the door way was a familiar figure he knew all to well. The very person who he talked about in his essay.

A big buff looking velociraptor in a business suite walked in to the room. After him was a young looking tan ferret woman. The velociraptor looked down at Gumball and he could see his eyes glint with pure hatred.

"What are you doing here!" Gumball hissed. The ferret looked at the velociraptor and he nodded.

"Mr. Watterson! I will not have you shouting at the new student's parents!" Principle Brown said.

'New Student?' Gumball thought. The two stepped aside and Gumball felt his jaw drop to the floor. In walked a blue feline. He wore a zip up blue jacket with whte strings hanging from the hood and dark blue baggy jeans. His eyes were closed but his expression was in a huge grin.

*"Hello! Good day to all!" the boy said cheerfully. Gumball's fists clenched.

This cannot be good for us...

"You..." Gumball said venomously. The boy looked his way, but his eyes stayed closed as did the grin. There was a long silence.

"Do I know you?" the boy asked tilting his head.

"Cut the charade! You know exactly who I am!" Gumball said.

"Mr. Watterson! Enough of this! Leave now before you scare away our sucker..errr I mean... company." Principle Brown said.

"Principle Brown, I can assure you, you do not want him hanging around the school!" Gumball pointed to the boy.

"Leave... NOW!" Principle Brown shouted. Gumball sighed and walked past him, but not before glaring at the boy. Time slowed as he walked by him. The boy opened his eyes just a little and Gumball could see that there was only a white blankness in them. The grin now turned into a sneer. Gumball closed the door behind him and stood in front of the door for a good long minute.

"Move along, Mr. Watterson." Ms. Simian said as she walked out of the room and down the hall.

Don't let it get to you... we will bust him for who he really is... but for now you need to get to detention...

Gumball said nothing and walked down to Ms. Simian's classroom to begin his detention.*

Principle Brown smiled to the strange but rich looking parents.

"You must forgive me, Gumball can be quite a handful. Now then, your child wants to enroll in this school?" he asked. The velociraptor nodded. "Can I ask your names?" Principle Brown asked.

"Excuse us for not being so chatty." the velociraptor spoke. His voice was deep and boomed through Principle Brown's very core. "We have recently moved from out of our home country and are very unsure of what to do. My name is Tyrone."

"Charmed, I'm sure." Principle Brown said as he studied the beefy dinosaur. He then looked to the ferret. "And yours?"

"You can call me Julian. Me and my fiancee heard about this school so much and I feel it is right for our son to attend." the ferret said with a smile. Principle Brown looked down to the feline that has his eyes closed. He was facing their way, but he was unsure if he was staring directly at him.

"Sorry if ask, but is there a reason why your son has his eyes closed?" Principle Brown asked.

"Not at all. You see, when he was little he accidentally fell face flat into a puddle of nuclear waste. It burned out his eye color and pupils. But he can still see rather well. He just prefers to keep them close so as to not frighten the others." Julian said.

"Is that so? Mind if I take a look?" Principle Brown asked, his curiosity peeked. Tyrone and Julian looked at each other and smiled evilly.

"Be our guest." Tyrone said as he stepped aside. Julian stepped aside as well. The boy walked up to the desk.

"It is rather rude to ask, but since I am a nice guy, I'll let you look." the boy said with a smile. Principle Brown shrieked when the boy opened his eyes. The boy's cheeks had dark lines zigzagging down them and a dark circular vortex appeared behind him. Principle Brown fell off his chair, scrambled up right and raced past them to the door. He tried opening it but the door wouldn't open. He planted himself against the wall as the boy turned his head to him.

"W-what are you!" Principle Brown asked in horror. This boy made his heart skip every beat. Something was off about this family. 'Monsters...' he thought. 'They are truly monsters!'

"What's the rush? You did say you wanted a look." the boy said. He turned to him. "My true name is Limbo... but you will address me in this place as Victor. Understand?" something shot out of the vortex and wrapped around Principle Brown's body. "Or I'll rip every strand of your hair out. Bit... by... bit." Victor closed his eyes and the vortex vanished along with the lines on his cheeks. Principle Brown stayed where he was. Petrified. "Now then... what class am I in?" he asked. Principle Brown gulped.

"Y-y-y-you are in Ms. Simians class..." Principle Brown said shakily. Victor smiled and leveled his face with his.

"Is that where Gumball is?" he asked. Principle Brown nodded. The boy known as Victor nodded and held out a hand behind him. A dark portal opened "If you tell anyone about this, I'll make sure that your whole life will be painful and miserable." he spun cheerfully on his heels and marched through it. Tyrone and Julian stepped in after him without saying a word. The portal closed and Principle Brown was left in a petrified state in his lonely and quite office he used to call his sanctuary.

Sorry it took so long for me to get this story published! I had a lot of complications that couldn't be left ignored. Also, I had to study for final exams. Thankfully, I was exempted from the rest and only had to do math. Yay me!

Anyway, hope you enjoyed it! I am writing this completely from the top of my head, so if you have any ideas that could make it more interesting for everyone, P.M. me! :D
