Chapter 4: Meanwhile, In the Real World

Nicole was freaking out. She had no idea where Gumball and Darwin were. She looked all over the house, in the backyard, and the front yard. She was worried and yet angry at the same time. Then, a knock at the door caught the female cat's attention. It was Anais, who Nicole thought was up in her room. "Where were you?" Nicole asked. Anais replied, "Mom, Gumball and Darwin are…" She paused. "WHERE!?" Nicole screamed impatiently. "Um, I really don't know how to explain this. Uh, they are inside a video game." Anais said expecting her mom to release another round of angry outbursts. "What? That's impossible!" Nicole said shockingly. "Well when Skips is involved, it's not." Anais said nervously. Nicole did not wait, she jumped into her car to see Skips.

"How?" Nicole said yet again astonished. "Why?" She asked. "Gumball went in there to save the person he loves." Skips said calmly. "Who?" Nicole asked. "Penny." Skips said hoping Nicole wouldn't get angry. The word "Penny" repeated in her head. Did her son really love the antlered peanut? Is he really willing to risk his life to keep her safe? She couldn't believe this. She just couldn't.

"Skips, take me in." Nicole demanded. "Why" Skips asked. "To get my son out of that dangerous place!" Nicole said. "Nicole, you can't take him out of there until he finds Penny, he won't go." Skips tried to convince her to not to go in. "Well let me get Darwin." Nicole said trying to convince Skips. "Gumball could die without Darwin's help." Skips told her. Thiis made Nicole even angrier. "LET ME IN!" Nicole was getting impatient. "Ok, but don't stop or get in Gumball's way, he will avoid you because he is going to think you are gonna take him out of there." Skips instructed. "Ok." 3 2 1 Nicole was now in the game.

Nicole opened her eyes, everything was now 8-bit. "OK. Let Gummypuss find his girl then get them out of here." Nicole said to herself. "I shouldn't try to draw much attention." She yet again said to herself. She found herself in brown cloth. She pulled up some cloth to cover her head to hide her identity and started searching for her sons.

Anais was home in her room. Sitting on her bed. Wanting to help with this serious problem. She had no ideas. Until, she came up with one, she snuck past her sleeping father, climbed onto her bike, and headed for the school. She was about to create an invention that would help her family in that deathtrap role-playing game.
