Hi guys! Here is a fanfic that brings back weird memories for me! Let me explain.

So, this is a rewrite of a VERY VERY old Gumball fanfic I made back in 2017.

Basically, it was cringe.

Today however, it's not going to be cringe. It's going to become a good fanfic! (Hooray?..)

Anyway, the original was pretty weird, so this might be a little weird too.

Keep in mind though, this is a rewrite. So I've changed A LOT of things. Also I added an ending because the original had no ending at all. (Whoops.)

With all that said, enjoy the story!

It was a peaceful day in Elmore.

However, Gumball seemed to be the only one not enjoying the day like everyone else was.

Instead, he was stuck inside finishing his essay, which was 500 words.

"Okay.. What do I have so far.. The.."

Gumball looked at the essay, which only had the word 'the' in a fancy kind of font.

He frowned, since this essay was due by tomorrow.

Darwin walked into the bedroom casually, noticing his brother's dilemma.

"Are you still working on that essay?"

Gumball sighed, slumping over the desk miserably.

"Yeah.. But I can't think.. All I have is the..."

"The.. What?"

"That's just it.."

"Well, you still have until tomorrow, so don't stress too much about it.." Darwin said, trying to reassure him everything was fine.

Suddenly, a loud crash sound was heard, the room shaking a little as if it were some kind of earthquake.

The sound and shaking stopped, leaving the two still standing in there spots.

"What the what?! What the heck was that?!"

Gumball was no longer worried about the essay, instead focusing on what just happened.

The door of the bedroom opened, revealing their sister Anais with a worried look.

"Did you guys hear that sound?"

Gumball and Darwin nodded, still very worried about this situation.

"Where do you think it came from?.." Darwin asked.

Anais shrugged.

"I don't know, but it sounded like it came from the backyard."

Soon, the three went downstairs, and into the backyard.

They gasped, as they discovered the sight before them.

A large crater was now in the middle of the yard, with a single object in it.

"Good thing mom and dad aren't home, they'd probably be freaking out about this.." Gumball said, getting a little closer to the hole.

Before he could go any farther, Anais quickly stopped him.

"Wait Gumball don't! We don't know what that thing could be!"

"So?"

"It could be dangerous!"

"Anais is right.. Maybe we should let Mrs. Mom take care of this.." Darwin said, stepping back a little.

"Wait.. It looks like some kind of rock.."

Gumball slipped his hand out of Anais's, and went closer, much to Darwin and Anais's dismay.

"Gumball wait!"

He looked down into the hole, which contained a singular stone, weird letters carved into it.

"Gumball! Get back over here!" Anais shouted, slightly annoyed.

A bit reluctant, Gumball climbed down into the crater, the rock now a few feet away.

Now closer, he reached out towards the object, his siblings shouts now farther away.

"Gumball what are you doing?! Don't touch it!"

The rock felt warm in his hand, and.. Glowed?

Before he could react, the stone began to glow brighter and brighter.

"Uh.. Guys... I think it's glowing... Like.. A lot.."

"Gumball!"

Everyone's vision soon went white, as the rock was now brighter than ever.


"Gumball?.. Are you okay?..."

Hearing Darwin's voice, Gumball woke up, a little dazed from all of the light.

"What happened?.."

His vision started coming back, as he saw two blurry figures looking at him.

"Well, from the looks of it, that rock isn't normal. It must've been bright enough to blind us temporarily." Anais said.

"Where is it though?.." Gumball asked, his eyesight now working again.

"I.. I don't know.. It looks like it disappeared.." Darwin answered, looking around for any sight of the object.

Anais looked up, noticing something was very amiss, Darwin noticing as well.

"Gumball, you might want to look down." She said, still looking at the amiss thing.

Obeying, Gumball looked down, discovering a very weird sight.

He was glowing.

Okay.. I know this is a little short.. But don't worry, there's more to come.

Anyway, how was that? Did it sound noncringy?

If you say no, then I'll be relieved.

If you say yes, then I'm probably reconsidering my life choices.

Like I said, there is more chapters to this, so be on the lookout for that!

With that said, see you in the next chapter!

Btw, did you see the reference in the beginning? Heh heh.. I did.. (cause I'm the writer of course I saw it) (Hint: Pineapple..)

What's the deal with that object? Is there any peticular reason why Gumball is glowing now? Stay tuned!
