Okay, this is my first Family Guy story, so don't be too harsh on me. It's just an idea I thought up a couple of weeks ago. Unlike most episodes, this story has a single conflict. Warning: Much of it centers around Meg, so don't say I didn't warn you..
Summary: When Lois goes too far, Meg runs away from home. Little do they realize that the consequences are beyond their comprehension. Now her family has to search for her, but do they really want her back? And what is she going to do now?
It was a typical Griffin family morning. Lois was cooking toast, Stewie was working on his ray gun, Brian was reading the newspaper, Chris complained about the evil monkey in his closet, and Peter was wolfing down all the food. But Meg was nowhere to be seen.
"Huh, I wonder where she is." Stewie asked Brian. "Normally, she's crying her eyes out at the table because a boy rejected her for her ugliness."
"All right, Stewie, that's enough." Brian, the family dog, chided, and went back to the newspaper. "Huh, so Bush is asking for a troop increase. Wonder where that idiot misplaced his brain."
"Come on, who would you prefer, Al Gore?" Stewie laughed. "Besides, at least with a Republican, I can get a permit for my ray gun. Should have shot Clinton when I had the chance…"
"Come on, Lois, don't you have any more food?" Peter complained, stealing from Chris' plate.
"Honey, you know money's been tight, and you can afford to lose some weight." Lois replied. "Dr. Hartman warned you that you're at risk for diabetes."
"Yeah, you're not the only one who's hungry!" Chris agreed, looking at his mom. "Mom, do we have any froot loops?"
"Hold on, honey, let me check." Lois replied. She opened the pantry, but all 5 boxes were empty. "Peter, did you eat all the cereal?"
"No, I left a cup or two." Peter protested. "Besides, I got hungry watching that rabbit finally get the Trix."
"Huh, you'd think those idiots in Washington would get rid of these ridiculous expenses." Brian muttered to himself. "Seriously, spending 5 million dollars to teach kids about Canada?"
"Honestly, why do you care about politics?" Stewie rolled his eyes. "I'm going to take over the world in a few years away. Well, assuming I can fix that mind control device from the fat man thinking it was food." He grinned. "Hey, Brian, I bet you 5 bucks I can lock Meg in a closet."
"You're on." Replied Brian, shaking his hand. Stewie ran up to her room. "Course, I forgot to tell him she's hiding from Neal again." A few seconds later, Stewie screamed, running back into the kitchen. "Jeez, what happened?"
"I saw her in her underwear, okay!" Stewie. "God, she's even uglier than I thought. Least it wasn't as bad as that time I walked in on Bill and Monica."
Flashback
"Now with this new mind control ray, I can force the president to do anything I choose!" Stewie exclaimed. He walked into the room, smirking. "Oh, Mr. President, I have a… oh, dear god!"
"Ah… this isn't what it looks like!" Clinton protested, covering himself with White House papers. Stewie was dumbfounded and fainted on the ground. "Well, that was easy. Come on, Monica, I'm not done yet."
End flashback
Meg walked into the room, quietly crying. "What's wrong, Meg?" Brian asked. He was the only one in the family, it seemed, that cared about her, though he too pulled pranks on her from time to time.
"Today was the worst day ever!" She sobbed. "Connie told the whole school that I slept with 10 guys! After that, Ted and Marsha started a food fight and they all threw the food at me! I told the teachers, but they just laughed and called me ugly."
"Don't worry about them; they're idiots." Brian sighed. Honestly, the way her parents ignored her was pathetic. If they didn't do something, they would regret it along the line. "This is your last year of high school and then you'll be in college." He let Meg cry on her shoulder.
"Meg, we all know you're making this up to get attention." Lois sighed. "Now clean yourself up or you aren't getting dessert."
"Yeah, stop being such a whiny bitch." Peter sighed. Meg ran out of the room, crying even harder.
"Mom, why does she cry so much?" Chris asked stupidly. "I heard that when women cry, they're on their period."
"Nah, she's just a bimbo." Peter giggled.
"Where are you going?" asked Stewie, watching Brian get up from his chair.
"I'm going to talk to Meg and you're coming with me." Brian stated, dragging the protesting Stewie behind. He threatened to use his ray gun, but Brian took it out of his hand.
"Come on, when did you become such a softie?" asked Stewie. "Why are you dragging me here? I don't want anything to do with her!"
"You either come with me or I'll tell the world about your make out session with Rupert."
"You swore never to mention that again!" Stewie struggled again, but was too late. They saw Meg crying her eyes out rolled in a ball in the corner of the room. "I must say, I can see why no guys like her. She's just too needy! Maybe if she was more like me… Ha! Sucker!" He ran off before Brian knew what was happening.
"All right, I've got to help her. Wait, what's the smell? It smells like… a female dog. No, no, remember what happened last time."
"Brian, me and the guys are going out for some beers!" Peter yelled. 'Want to come? We need a… what was that word?… Drunk driver!" Brian smiled and ran towards them, all thoughts of Meg exiting his mind.
Meanwhile in his room, Stewie was currently talking to Rupert. "This could be my chance!" he exclaimed. "She could help me kill Lois! They obviously don't get along. Sigh, I really wish the fat man didn't step on my mind control device. Blast! I can't get this ray gun to work. Damn the Chinese and their cheap parts!"
After a few more minutes of tinkering, he finally got it to work. "Finally! Well, if this worked against Bertram, it'll certainly take care of Lois. Wish me luck, Rupert! I'm about to make my first step to world domination!"
He spotted Lois walking towards Meg's room and followed. He silently opened the door and spotted the two shouting at one another. He aimed his ray gun towards Lois' head and just as he was about to get a shot off, she backhanded.
"Wow, I never thought Lois was that violent." Stewie laughed. "Maybe she's on her period. How anyone can stand women is beyond me." Stewie aimed again, but was distracted by Lois systemically beating Meg.
Meg tried to fight back and punched Lois in the jaw, making her angrier. Lois took out a random whip and began hitting her with it. She fought as best she could, but eventually submitted. It seemed like forever until she stopped. "Don't ever call me that again, you worthless whore!" she snarled. "If anyone learns about this, I WILL kill you, understand? Fearfully, Meg nodded.
Stewie hid behind the door as she stormed out, admittedly afraid. He clutched his ray gun tighter, wishing it was as powerful as he last one. Once she was gone, he checked Meg's pulse, and breathing. "Well, she'll be fine." He shrugged. "She's going to need some new clothes, though. Ha! This is just the thing to finish Lois off! Together we will have unlimited potential. Wait, why am I using her as an apprentice? Ah, well, beggars can't be choosers. Hmm, I think it's time to work on that dark lightning device I have so I can slowly fry Lois. What fun!" he ran out, grinning about his new schemes for his older sister.
But little did he know that someone else was watching and had schemes of his own for the poor girl.
Sorry if it seems out of character, but Lois has admitted she doesn't care for Meg and it's necessary for the plot. As for who this figure is, you'll find out in the next chapter.
