In the words of Nic Cester "START THE SHOW!"
Ch. 1: 2 months lost…
Mordecai , Rigby, and the new intern Thomas had just finished cleaning up the park from the Exit 9B incident.
"There! That should be everything!" Mordecai saying as he finished removing the debris of a fallen tree.
"Great work Thomas!" Rigby gave a thumbs up at Thomas who was sweating from the repetitive work. "Now we can do what I do best…" Rigby fell into the grass.
"Yeah turn into a steaming couch potato."
"Whatever dude… I did my work so I deserve to lie down." Mordecai and Thomas began to walk away when Mordecai suddenly stopped. He pulled out his phone to see if he had any messages. He stared at his phone with disbelief.
"One hundred-twenty messages?! Who was texting me?!" The answer hit Mordecai like a ton of bricks. All the messages he missed during the two months he was missing suddenly caught up to him "Oh crap! Margaret!" Mordecai took off in a dead sprint to the cart and floored it to the Coffee Shop. Mordecai pulled up and ran into the shop and took a look around. Mordecai saw Eileen serving drinks and some sandwiches.
"Here you go! Enjoy!" She turns to see Mordecai and she drops her now empty tray. "M-Mordecai… You-you're alive?!" The expression on her face was bad enough… the fact that she thought he was dead was even worse.
"Eileen… Where's Margaret?" Eileen could see the worry in Mordecai's eyes as he asked the question.
"S-she hasn't come to work in a long time… like three weeks… She hasn't left her apartment in weeks and I'm scared. She's just been in this daze ever since you left… Mordecai, where did you go?"
Mordecai saw no point in not telling everything so he told Eileen about everything that had happened to him and why he has no bearing on any current events other than what happened to Exit 9B. Eileen's eyes turn into softballs as she is amazed by the tale and can't believe the life Mordecai has on a daily basis.
"So the reason you've been gone for two months is because you used a time machine to travel forward in time to where you could stop a floating head bent on revenge…?" Mordecai was shocked by how absurd his story seemed although Eileen and Margaret aren't involved in the day-to-day events happening at the park.
"When you put it like that…"
"By the way where's Rigby?" Mordecai turns to the sound of the door opening to see Rigby out of breath.
"You… can… suck… a…"
"RIGBY!" Eileen almost tackled Rigby to the ground as she nearly hugs him in half.
"Eileen… too hard…"
"Sorry…" She releases her death grip.
"You're lucky… you had… a good reason… to be … in a hurry…"
"Dude I think you need to lay off the chips and dip. And what'd you do with Thomas?"
"First: Shut up! Second: I don't know because I know he didn't follow me… Did you find out anything about Margaret?"
"Yeah and it's not information I wanted to hear and didn't expect it to be this bad. I need to go see her now." With that, Mordecai got in the cart and took off for Margaret's.
"What'd I miss?"
Mordecai pushed the cart to its limits until he finally got to Margaret's apartment. He went up to the steps and walked up to her door and he knocked. For what seemed like an eternity he just stood at the door waiting and knocking and waiting and knocking and waiting and knocking until the door finally opened.

Margaret's life had been hell for the last two months, her "more than just friend" Mordecai had been missing for two months and had put her into a depression she didn't think she would ever get in. She only ever left her bed when she had to use the toilet and to shower and if it wasn't for Eileen and her parent's help, she probably wouldn't have a place to live either. Eileen brought her groceries and her parents sent her money to pay for her rent and other bills.
All Margaret wanted to do was see Mordecai again… Ever since he left she hadn't been herself… not by a long shot. She even took up the really bad habit of cutting herself to help feel better. Her arm was covered in scars from all the cutting. She had thought Mordecai was different... but to her it was just an illusion.
Suddenly she heard knocking on her door and she decided to ignore it… until the knocking came again, and again, and again till finally she realized that whoever it was wasn't going away until she came to the door. She sat up and got out of her nice comfy bed and walked to the door.
"What do you want?!" Margaret yelled at the person on the other side… before turning from her bright red to a paler shade. "M-Mor-Mordecai…" She reached out as if in disbelief that he was alive. She thought she was dreaming as she moved to touch his face. When she touched his face she instantly realized it wasn't some dream that it was the real Mordecai.
"Margaret I…"
*SMACK*
Right across his face came Margaret's hand before Mordecai could get three words in edge wise.
"Where have you been?!
"Margaret… I…"
"What?! You got no good excuses?! Do you have any idea the pain you caused me?!" She showed her scars to Mordecai who nearly fell off of the railing behind him at the sight. Mordecai was at a loss for words as he had no idea about how much Margaret cared about him. "Of course you have none… What should I expect from someone who was here and then up and leaves?!" She turns to walk back in.
"Margaret, Wait!"
*SLAM*
It was obvious that she wasn't going to believe everything that he said… especially considering Eileen barely believed him and she wasn't screaming in his face. Mordecai thought it best just to head home for now…
Margaret fell on her bed to cry after she chased off Mordecai. She wasn't thinking rationally anymore... and didn't give one damn...
A/N what do you think, you like it? I wonder where Margaret's rationality went...
