Chapter 2: Opposites Attract
Kenny opened his eyes; feeling slightly dazed and dizzy. He could see that the room was lighter than what it was the last time he had his eyes open. It was now Saturday morning. The sun was beaming its warm sunshine rays into the room; bouncing off the walls and back onto Kenny. He lifted himself up and scratched his head even though he seemed half asleep and quite tired.
He went to scratch his chest but his fingers created friction against something. He looked down and was shocked to see that he was wearing clothes. As his gaze went further, he realised that he was completely dressed in clothes; shirt, trousers and socks. His shirt was red in colour and had an incredible amount of black graphic styles on it. Kenny had never seen the type of design that was on his shirt before but they were of very strange styles. Looking down further, he noticed his trousers were actually a blue pair of jeans covered in white graphics that went right down both sides.
As he stood back up onto the bedroom floor, he walked up to the mirror. It took him a few minutes to realise that he had something on both his arms. As he jumped to the shock of it, he pulled up both sleeves of his shirt to see that he had what looked like long tattoos running down both his arms. On one side, a white tattoo and the other side, a black tattoo. He tried to rub them off but they wouldn't disappear. Scratching them as hard as he could, he pressed his fingers down onto his arm to try and at least scratch them off. But all his attempts failed. Just as he expected, they wouldn't come off.
Confused by this whole incident, he put his orange jacket back on, zipped it up tight and walked out of the room. As he slowly walked down the stairs, he had a weird buzz in his body; shaking slightly and becoming almost warm in a way. He was shocked to see the other three boys lying on the floor all asleep as he got down to the last step.
"Hey……guys…wake up!" Kenny spoke; as he shook Stan and Kyle to try and wake them up. But nothing happened. Suddenly, Kenny heard a noise coming from the kitchen; as if someone was in there.
Kenny carefully tip-toed his way through the living room, making sure to not get heard by whatever was in the kitchen. As he peaked around the corner, he saw nothing. He revealed his whole body out into the open of the room's end point to find that no one was there; it was silent. Taking a huge sigh of relief, he turned back around but immediately stopped as he bumped straight into someone.
"Hi there, I see yer' quite surprised by all this eh?" A boy with blond hair spoke.
Kenny screamed under the thickness of his jacket and ran off. But as he turned his head around, another boy was standing exactly in front of him as well.
"There's no need to panic about all this, it's alright." The other boy with blond hair spoke.
Kenny ran off into another direction; screaming for his life. He ran back into the hallway.
"GUYS…GUYS!..." He yelled out to try and wake up the other three. "There's two big kids in the house and they don't look very nice...and well……they look exactly like me!"
Surprisingly, the two boy strangers did look exactly like identical; each having scruffy blond hair…like Kenny, each having hazel-coloured eyes…like Kenny and also having the same facial look…like Kenny.
Kenny looked back up and was horrified and frightened at the fact that the two boys were looking down at him; standing right next to where he knelt.
"Do you humans always act like this when you see something like this?"
Kenny ran out of the house; still screaming. The two boys looked at one another with puzzled looks on their faces.
"Ageliss…you did say this was Kenny McCormick didn't you?"
"Course I did Divelia…THAT IS him."
"Heh, oh well we best go after him before he does something stupid."
"I agree, but first, get rid of that sleeping thing you put on these three."
"Sure, no problem."
Ageliss and Divelia who appeared to be now in human form, walked out of the house. Divelia clicked his fingers and slowly, the other three boys woke up.
Meanwhile, Kenny was hiding in a group of bushes; trying to keep his shaking and noises of fear to a minimum. He hadn't even realised that the two boys he saw earlier looked just like him; he was full of fear too much to even realise it. It didn't take Ageliss and Divelia long to find him. As they stood in a not-so-far distance looking at a group of shaking bushes, they looked at each other. Ageliss opened out the palm of his hand and using some kind of mental ability, was able to lift Kenny up into the air; allowing him to hover freely in mid-air. Ageliss pulled Kenny towards him and Divelia as Kenny screamed lightly at what the heck was going on. As Kenny stopped just in front of the two, he looked at them with fear all over his face.
"PLEASE…don't kill me…I'm just a kid…please!" Kenny pleaded with the two as he continued to hover in mid-air by the power of Ageliss' mental grasp.
"Kenny…we're not going to kill you…we just want to talk."
"T-talk? About what!"
"About why we're here…we've got some very thorough stuff to tell you."
"Well will you let me go then?"
"Will you listen to what we've got to say then?"
"YEH…SURE…whatever you say."
Ageliss carefully placed Kenny back on the ground. Kenny wasn't sure whether to run as fast as he could or stay. But for the sake of it, he decided to stay.
The two boys made their way to a nearby log and sat down on it whilst Kenny stared at them in confusion and fear.
"Alright…you want to know what's going on Kenny?" Divelia asked; expecting what Kenny was going to answer.
"Errrr…yeh…sure."
"Alright here we go……" Ageliss cleared his throat (something that he had never done before in human form) and resumed speaking. "First off, we're not human. We're not of any creature you know of or don't know of in this whole Universe. Us two are actually from two separate dimensions."
"Two separate dimensions?"
"Yes…we're both brothers but we born in separate existences. My brother Divelia was born in what you call Hell…whereas I was born in what you call Heaven."
"Wait a minute! Are you two like the sons of God and the devil or something coz' I thought that was just a load of s---!"
The two boys looked at each other. "Ummmm…well no not exactly. To be honest, we don't have a father…or a……mother to put it that way; we were just born."
"OK…so who are you two then and what are you doing here?"
"Well as you may have already heard…I am Ageliss; sole Guardian of Heaven and all in it whereas my brother Divelia here is the sole Guardian of Hell. We both travelled to this dimension and to this world in order to find you. A terrible TERRIBLE spirit is about to strike on this planet and you are the only one who can defeat it and stop it from taking over every bit of existence that lives within the natural Universe."
Kenny looked at them; eyes widened and mouth wide open. "Holy s---! What kind of f---ing story is that!"
Ageliss and Divelia looked at each other and stood back up. "Walk this way Kenny; we have something to tell you." As the two boys walked down the snowy field, Kenny followed; remaining in-between the two of them.
"You see Kenny. There's a reason why everything exists as it does…a supernatural reason!"
"Supernatural? What do you mean?"
"Well…it all started about 300 million of your Earth years ago. On that day, four separate dimensions were created in order to balance out the existence of all life, energy, matter and space in the very Universe; Heaven, Hell, your Dimension and the 4th dimension."
"4th dimension?"
"Yes…the 4th dimension is a cold, dark, lonely, baron emptiness. Unfortunately, it was there that gave birth to one of the most darkest and cold-hearted spirits of all; a spirit of immeasurable evil."
"Wait a minute…I thought Hell was supposed to be like one of the most evillest places that exists."
"Yeh…YOU THOUGHT that…but it's not true."
Kenny was confused even more now. Divelia continued. "Heaven and Hell are like two opposite mirrors that reflect everything that exists in this Universe. One of light and one of dark. What you thought were Heaven and Hell…don't even exist."
"But wait a minute…I've been to both Heaven and Hell in my life…how can you say they don't exist."
"Because they're not the real Heaven and Hell!"
Kenny stopped walking. Those words stunned him and shock flooded onto his face. "They're……they're not real?"
"No……those two places were simply cover-ups."
"But…but it doesn't make any sense. Why?"
"Because it's the only way to hide the truth……"
"What truth!"
The two boys stopped and turned back around to face Kenny. Ageliss sighed and took over speaking.
"That the three dimensions are slowly collapsing; falling apart as time passes."
"Collapsing?"
"Over the past 100 years, me and Divelia have been sensing very dark evil detections coming from the 4th dimension. What we feared…has happened. The evil spirit that we mentioned…has broken free from his prison."
"What do you mean?"
"The evil spirit that goes by the name of Xerok was once imprisoned in that dimension for trying to conquer all three dimensions and take control of all existence in the Universe. He was eventually defeated and sealed up within the tightest of gaps within the 4th dimension. However by some unfortunate sense of bad luck, he's managed to find a way out of that dimension and is now was once more trying to fulfil his desire of ultimate power and control."
"So why don't you two go and beat him."
"The problem is…is that we alone can't beat him……we need your help Kenny!"
"ME? Are you out of your f---ing mind? I can't fight this……this thing; especially after what you've told me."
"Don't worry Kenny. That's the reason why we're here!"
"That's right. A prophecy was once told to us that a child of incredible spiritual energy would one day be born in this dimension and would be destined to destroy the evil spirit; using both the powers of Light & Dark as his aid. That child…is you Kenny…and the Light & Dark energy of aid…is us two."
Kenny's worried face soon lifted. "So…do you mean that I have some kind of new powers now because of you two!"
"To put it in simple terms…YES."
Kenny stood in silence and slight shock for a while before he leapt up from off the ground; yelling a huge 'WOOHOO!' that filled the surroundings with his voice.
"That's f---ing awesome!"
"Well what did you expect? Didn't you even notice how we look now? Because we three are now alike in power, we're also alike in physical appearance."
Kenny walked forward to look at both Ageliss' and Divelia's face. He soon realised that they looked just like him, except for the fact that both of them were 4 years older than what Kenny was.
"Woahhhh……so that's what I'm gunna look like in 4 years?……f---ing awesome!"
Thirty more minutes had passed. Kenny and his two new 'alter ego' looking friends were walking back the other way back up the snowy path.
"Well now that we've told you everything Kenny, there's just one more thing for us to show you."
Ageliss and Divelia suddenly vanished. Kenny was shocked and stood on the side of the path looking left and right.
"Hey, where did you guys go? Hey…hello?"
"Don't worry Kenny, we're here!"
Kenny turned back around but no one was there. "Where's here?"
"Here's here!"
"Where?"
"RIGHT HERE KENNY…inside you."
"Huh? Inside me!"
"That's right. Technically speaking…we're mentally and spiritually inside you. Because of this, we can talk to you and you can talk to us at anytime; just as long as we're in here though."
"COOL…God I can't wait to show the guys this…they'll be so jealous."
"Ummmm…I don't think that's such a good idea Kenny. You must remember that since we took your human form and we are from another dimension after all, you're the only one who can see us. Nobody else can see, hear or touch us at all."
"Nobody?"
"NOBODY!"
"Alright cool…I guess that'll be nice in a way."
"Kenny! KENNY…DUDE!"
Kenny turned around to see Stan, Kyle and Cartman waving at him; already starting to walk up to him from a distance. "GUYS!"
Kenny walked over to where the other three boys were stood. "Hey guys, what's up?"
"Dude…Kenny; we've been looking all over for you. We were really worried about you man."
"Oh sorry guys, I errrrr guess I wanted some fresh air so I must have got up early and went too far on my walk."
"A walk…God Kenny you're so stupid."
"Shut up Cartman…at least he's done more exercise than you fat boy!"
"ANYWAY…I feel alright now. I don't know why I felt the way I did but I'm all better now."
"You sure dude…you still don't look good."
"Nah, I'll be fine."
"OK…come on, we three saw some moving vans parked outside a house; we think a new family or sumin are moving in."
"Cool…let's go see!"
And with that said, the four boys walked back down the path and back towards the residential area of the town. But now Kenny knew who and what he was now; he was no ordinary kid, he was now different in more than one way. And it would be soon that he was to learn just how different he was and what exactly Ageliss and Divelia had done to him that night.
