Prologue
It was an icy cold day when the thirteen year olds were called to Stark's Pond. It was always cold when they were split into the four different villages because it always happened on December 31st, the last day of the year. Not too long ago, the new mayor of South Park had decided that the population was increasing too much so he ordered that the town be split into four villages and that anyone the ages of thirteen through eighteen would be split up into the villages to work. After they turned eighteen, they would be free to go on about their own lives. Hardly anyone made it that far though; most of the teenagers had dropped dead from exhaustion or starvation. That day, every thirteen year old in the town would be split into a village where they would begin their cruel five year destiny. The crowd of young teenagers looked up at the oak tree of a man who was glaring down at them.
"I have gathered you hear today so I can divide you into one of the four villages, Earth, Fire, Air, and Water." The man started.
"We already know why you're here!" A pudgy boy by the name of Eric Cartman yelled out.
The man ignored Eric and continued talking,
"You will have everything you need, clothes, water, shelter, and food if you earn it."
"What about love and affection?" A sullen looking girl named Bebe Stevens asked.
"Love and affection? Who needs love and affection?" The man snorted.
"You apparently." A runt of a boy named Kyle Broflovski muttered. If the man heard him, he showed no notion of it and he pulled out a clipboard. After clearing his throat, he began to speak again,
"Heading to the Earth Village will be, Kenny, Clyde, Token and Jimmy."
"No girls?" A boy covered by an orange parka asked. Everyone knew that Kenny McCormick was a notorious ladies man.
"No girls." The man confirmed before continuing on,
"Heading to the Water Village will be, Eric, Wendy, Tweek, and Heidi."
Kyle and Stan gave a small cheer when they heard that Cartman wouldn't be on their team.
"I hope we're on the same team." Stan whispered to his super best friend.
"Heading to the Fire Village will be, Kyle, Craig, Token, and Jason."
"Heading to the Air Village will be Stan, Bebe,"
"Why can't Kyle and I be on the same team?" Stan butted in.
"Because, it will cause a distraction." The man said with annoyance, he was clearly fed up with all the outbursts.
"As I was saying, going to the Air Village are, Stan, Bebe, Butters and Rebecca."
After the man finished, everyone put on their village's designated uniform and started to load their matching their uniform buses. The Earth Village people wore a white yellow jumpsuit with pictures of green leaves on it. The Water Village people wore tan jumpsuits with pictures of blue waves on it. The Fire Village people wore grey jumpsuits with pictures of flames on it. Last but not least, the Air Village people wore white jumpsuits with blue clouds on it.
"I'll miss you." Stan muttered throwing his arms around Kyle while Wendy and Bebe were doing the same. After everyone had said their goodbyes, the buses drove off to what the young teens would soon consider hell.
