Ok, here is another New, Spongebob Fanfiction, and I hope that you like this story.

A/N: This is based off the episode, SB-129, here's my idea about how the clones were made, which I believe are actually androids.

I do not own Spongebob Squarepants, or any of the characters.

Days Squidward locked himself in the freezer.

Spongebob and Patrick had spent days searching, looking for Squidward, their friend who came up missing, after searching jellyfish fields for their six limbed friend, but didn't find him. When finally, once they had called out a search team, they found him, stuck in the freezer, frozen, and locked, there was no way of getting inside there, and by now, they knew that Squidward Q. Tentacles, was dead, or so they thought.

They had a small funeral at the Krusty Krab for him, you would've thought they would close it after all there was practically a dead man in the back of the restaurant, but, as you guessed it, that didn't happen, the restaurant stayed open and it was alway busy.

Every now and again Spongebob would look back at the freezer and cry, thinking why couldn't he have saved his friend. Surely Squidward screamed for help once he figured out that no one was going to come for him, at least, not while he was alive, why couldnt he hear him? He wished he had but knew it would be impossible, not that he was far away at the moment, but because the freezer door was pretty much sound proof.

Three Years Later

What could happen with in three years? A Lot, and today was the day of one of the greatest elections Bikini Bottom would ever have, a battle of two candidates fighting for the spot of the new Mayor of Bikini Bottom.

"Can ya believe it Spongebob! This is gonna be the election of the century, who are y'all voting for?" Sandy asked, Spongebob smiled, "Uh, I, I don't know yet," Spongebob said, "Well, I hope y'all figure it out soon." She said, "This is gonna be great." Sandy said, "Yeah, I just, wish that Squidward were here with us to see it for himself." Spongebob said, Sandy rubbed Spongebob's back, "Awe, I bet he'd love to be here too, but he's in a better place." Sandy said, Spongebob smiled, "Do you really think so?" He asked, "Absolutely." Sandy answered, "Now, come on before the line gets too long." She said pulling Spongebob with her.

"Hello Ladies and Gentlefish, I am so glad that you all could make it to this probably, once and a lifetime opportunity, it's not everyday we have an election as fiercesome as this one," says a senate, "Who is ready to vote!" She shouts, the crowd goes wild, but she calms them down, "but first, we'll let the candidates say a few last words." She says.

Two guys stand up, each on their own side of a stage, "First up, Kevin M. Fisher" says the lady, then a fat blue fish, like the old mayor, walks up to the stand, "Greetings my fellow citizens…" the fish talks for about ten minutes, saying why he should be mayor, and telling them to vote for him, and once he is done, the senate comes back up.

"That was an amazing speech mr. Fisher." She says, "Thank you, Catherine." He smiles at her, "Next we have, Gary F. Copper." She announces as a skinny purple fish walks up to the stand, waving his fin around as the crowd screams.

Once the crowd calms, the fish clears his throat, "Now, I am not going to waste time to greet you lovely fish, no let's get straight to the point, ok, you all want a mayor who will keep your home safe, not just your home but you, and your family and friends, you want good doctors, and scientists, and trust me when i say, if you vote for me, you will have it all." He said looking around before stopping and staring at the only sponge in the crowd.

He purposely stares at him, "All of your problems will be solved, you will have the job, or home, or even boat you've always wanted if you voted for me," all his words sounded good, but what use was there that he had for any of those.

"Healthy, and alive is something that you want also, but not only for you, got a friend who is sick, or perhaps, frozen?" At the sound of that,Spongebob's eyes widened, clearly interested, "Do you want to see your friend again?" He asked, Spongebob unknowingly nodded, Gary smiled, "All you have to do is vote for me." He says throwing Spongebob a blue pen.

Spongebob stares down at the pen thinking, maybe this guy could bring him back. Sandy knocks Spongebob out of his trance, "I don't trust that Gary guy, one bit." Sandy huffs as she and Spongebob walk off, "I mean the other guy is where it's at, I mean just think, these guppies would get a better education." Sandy said.

Spongebob on the other hand was still in his trance, until Sandy snaps her fingers in front of him, "Spongebob, are y'all listening to me?" She asked, "I'm going to vote for him." Spongebob plainly said, "Wha?" Sandy questioned, Spongebob looked up at Sandy, "If he can do what he says he can, than I don't see what the big deal is, if what he says is true, then he has my vote." Spongebob said.

Sandy's jaw dropped, "Y'all can't be serious," she said shaking her head, "I am dead serious," "This is about Squidward, isn't it?" Sandy asked tapping her foot.

"Well, who else would it be about?" Spongebob asked, Sandy shook her head, "Y'all are out of ya mind, I'm sorry ta have ta break ya heart like this, but, Spongebob, Squidward is dead, he's been dead for three and a half years now," Sandy said, Spongebob shook his head, closing his eyes, refusing to believe it somehow, even though she was right.

"Don't say that," he said, "Spongebob, we all know it, you do too, y'all went to his funeral, he's dead, frozen in the freezer in the back of the Krusty Krab," Sandy yelled, snapping him out of it, "Even if they could get em outta that freezer, they couldn't bring em back, he's been dead for three years, that thing he was sayin' was just ta getcha to vote for em, he should know that it's impossible to bring someone back from the dead." Sandy explained.

Spongebob looked to the ground, he knew she was right, "But what if, I can't just stop believing, can I?" He smiled, Sandy sighed smiling, "Fine, vote for em if you really want to." She said as the two stepped in two separate booths.

After a couple of minutes, Spongebob finally stepped out of the booth, and was greeted by the candidate himself, "Hello there young man, how was your day, I hoped you voted for me." He said wrapping his arm around Spongebob.

"I sure did, Mr. Copper, is it true, you can revive anyone?" Spongebob asked, Gary nodded his head, smiling, "Ahh yes, it is very true, do you have someone that you'd like to bring back?" He asked, Spongebob nodded taking out a picture from his wallet, it was a picture of Squidward and him at his birthday party, Spongebob had his arm out towards Squidward who was running away from Spongebob.

The candidate took the picture, "Is this him?" He asked, "Yes sir," "Is he your boyfriend?" He asked him, Spongebob's face struck disgust at the thought, "Ew no, he's just one of my best friends," Spongebob said, "Right, sorry about that, so tell me what's the issue with him?" He asked Spongebob.

"Well, he's frozen in the back of my work place for about three and a half years, we can't get him out of the freezer, and if you could, you could bring him out and unfreeze him, and bring him back." Spongebob said, "Ah yes, of course," Gary rolled his eyes.

Sandy then stepped out of the booth, looking for Spongebob, "Alright, Spongebob let's get…. What in tarnation?" Sandy questioned looking at the running candidate talking to a very familiar sponge.

Sandy walked over to them, she didn't like the way this guy was looking at her friend, she didn't like anything about him, Sandy wrapped her arm around Spongebob's arm, "Come on Spongebob, enough chit chat," Sandy said, "but, Sandy wait," Spongebob said looking at her, Sandy looked back at the purple fish, squinting her eyes, "and you must be his girlfriend," he said, Sandy's eyes widened, "Of course I am, who else would I be?" Sandy barked.

Spongebob cocked his head to the side, "Sandy?" "No questions, dear, come on let's get goin" Sandy said yanking his arm, 'Dear?' This was strange even for Sandy, "Look I don't know what y'all've been tellin him, but whatever it is just stop it!" Sandy yelled, the fish looked at Spongebob, "She's a real keeper, huh?" He asked Spongebob.

"Huh?" Spongebob then looked at Sandy, "Oh, yeah she is, you bet," Spongebob said, "Well I best let you two get going, and hey kid, why don't you call me sometime, here's my number." Gary said handing Spongebob a card.

"Yeah thanks Gary, now me and my 'boyfriend' have ta get goin" Sandy said dragging Spongebob with her.

Once they were outside the building, Sandy let go of Spongebob, "So, I'm your boyfriend, huh?" Spongebob questioned putting a smug smirk on his face, "You should've at least taken me on a date first." Spongebob laughed, Sandy punched Spongebob on the top of his head before turning around and looking at the building.

"I really don't trust that guy Spongebob." Sandy said, "He's bad news, y'all should stay away from em" Sandy said, "Why, he seems like a nice guy to me." Spongebob shrugged,"He may seem that way, but he's not, I can tell he's got something up his sleeve, but I don't know what it is." Sandy said.

"Well he's pretty nice to me, which is twice more than all the previous mayors." Spongebob said, "Which is also strange, of all the fish in the place, why was he looking at y'all? I mean, not that y'all ain't fascinating, y'all are ta me actually, but something aint right with that guy," Sandy shook her head.

Spongebob huffed a chuckle, "What!" Sandy shouted, "Nothing, Sandy" he shook his head.

Few days later

It was said all over the news, Gary was now the new mayor of Bikini Bottom, and since that was the case, Spongebob had to go to him, to see if what he had said was true.

"Mr. Mayor, a Mr. Spongebob Squarepants is here to see you sir." Reports the intern through the speaker. The fish grinned, "Great, please, would you send him up?" He asked, "Yes sir." She fed back.

A pink fish looked down from the big front desk she was sitting at, to the little sponge in front of her, "This way Mr. Squarepants, the mayor had been expecting you." She said stepping down and leading Spongebob down the hall to an elevator.

.

"Go right through those two doors, and you'll be there." The lady said stopping in front of the door, she turned around to look at Spongebob,"Thank you miss." The lady said nothing she just rolled her eyes and walked away leaving Spongebob alone.

Spongebob took a deep breath, taking a bit of time to straighten out his shirt and tie, then he walked through the door where he was greeted by the mayor himself.

"Agh, there you are, Mr. Squarepants, finally!" The mayor praised shaking Spongebob's hand, "Woah, your hands so cold." Spongebob admired, "Well thank you, I did just stick my fins in a bowl of ice water." He said, "Really, but isn't that cold?" Spongebob asked, "Of course it was." The new mayor laughed.

"Uh, so congratulations with becoming the new mayor, I hope you're as good as the last one." Spongebob smiled, "Thanks, Spongebob, now let's get down to business," the mayor said sitting down at his desk, "Please, sit." He gestured to an empty seat in front of him.

Spongebob sat down, "So you want me to revive your ah, friend?" Gary asked, "Oh yes sir, could you actually do that? Sandy doesn't believe you guys can do it, she says it's impossible, even with all your science and technologies, you couldn't possible bring someone who's been dead for three years back." Spongebob said.

"Well, this Sandy girl you know, doesn't know everything, does she?" Gary questioned, "Well, she uh, kind of does, she is the smartest one in Bikini Bottom, and the whole world if you ask me, she is a scientist you know." Spongebob smiled.

"She is, huh? But she can't know everything, like how the world spends, or why our clouds are flowers." He said, "hmm, I don't know, you have to ask Sandy." Spongebob said, the mayor rolled his eyes, "Well she doesn't know but it is very true we can revive almost everyone." He said.

"Well, if you are right, could you bring my friend back?" Spongebob asked, the mayor rolled his eyes, "Yes, of course." He answered with annoyance, "but first you have to let me take a look at this friend of yours." The mayor said, "Yes sir, follow me!" Spongebob shouted taking Gary's hand and running him down to the Krusty Krab.

.

"It's a good thing the Krusty Krab's closed today," Spongebob said as he was unlocking the doors the to the restaurant. Spongebob led them to the back of the restaurant to see Squidward, "Here he is," Spongebob said gesturing to the freezer, "Hey there Squiddy ol' pal, we're going to get you out of here." Spongebob said wiping frost off the glass showing Squidward's frozen face.

"Wow kid, he sure is frozen." The mayor said, "Isn't he? He's been that way for three and a half years, until now, when you can revive him." Spongebob said, "Yes, about that, before we can do anything to him, we got to get you to sign a few papers." He said, "Papers?" Spongebob questioned.

"Yes, here I have them with me, all you have to do is sign three lines, and then we can proceed." He said, "Well, if it's to save my friend, which I shouldve done three years ago, what do I have to lose?" Spongebob asked as he signed the papers.

'Everything'

The mayor casted down an evil glare, and which Spongebob hadn't noticed, "Well it's been nice doing business with you, we will, revive your friend, in the meantime, why don't you go home and rest, and in about, say 5 days, come do this place, and we will have your friend looking good as new." Gary said handing Spongebob a written address, "Can do, five days, that's how long it will take, I'll have my friend back in five days!" Spongebob shouted out, "Now, run along son, and I'll see you soon." The mayor waved as Spongebob ran out of the Krusty krab to let the guys do their job.

Once Spongebob was gone, the mayor pulled out a phone and pressed it against his ear, "We've got him." He said before he hung up his phone, he then started to laugh, "This town will be mine." He announced out loud.

And scene!

Well there goes one chapter, and the others will soon follow after.
