"Wahahahaha!" Clyde bawled, horrified, as he found himself in his usual red coat and blue mittens.
Kyle was simply horrified as a five-year-old Ike ran up to him, babbling useless words. "Ike?" He said breathlessly. "Stan? Cartman? Kenny?!"
Kenny waved to him, face obstructed by his orange parka. Stan ran up to him, Wendy in tow. Tears rimmed her eyes. The swell in her stomach was gone, and she was back in her pink beret and purple coat and yellow pants. "My baby..." she whispered.
A new car pulled up. But instead of adults, a ten-year-old Token Black and his wife stepped out of the car, looking horrified. Cartman was sobbing, literally crying, as his blue and yellow hat crumpled in his yellow hands. "Where's mah Elleh?!" He bawled. "Elleh! Meeeeeem!"
Tweek began hyperventilating. "Tyler's gone! –ngh- I can't find Tyler?! Where's Tyler?! Oh Jesus, where's Annie?! Annie! What if she got eaten by werewolves?! What if that gas took him?!" A shrill scream pierced the air. "This is way too much PRESSURE!" He slammed his head on the countertop below him, screaming profanities.
"Guys, Guys!" Kyle yelled, scrambling on top of the counter. "Everyone calm down.."
"Loo, loo, loo," Butters gasped, rubbing his knuckles together. Damien Thorn blinked and gawked as Pip found his accent back.
"We've been turned into kids," Kyle announced, "It was...probably the gas?"
"But the crack in the wall's gone!" Token supplied, pointing.
"The...The air's clear," Kevin said shakily. "The gas should've been..."
"You all have ten hours...
Ten hours to regain
Ten hours to remain
Little children, when fun was fun
Until the sun sets, then your day's done
You're grown-ups again
Leading your normal lives
Unless you choose to stay
Just call out, just say
You'll be like this, then, you'll be young
I've given you a chance
To fix all you've done!
To make your lives better
To make no mistakes
Time's running out
So enjoy your day!"
The Hall bustled with life as the voice disappeared. Yet, as they did, a certain calm washed over them. Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny exchanged glances. Kids again.
Clyde glanced at his old gang—Craig, Token, and Tweek, and offered them a shaky smile. Kids.
They all pushed out of the hall, those with children forgetting, separating into the roads that led to their former homes. Kids.
Sheila and Gerald met their sons, Kyle and Ike, smiling as if they'd never grown and moved out. Kids.
Randy and Sharon met their son, Stan, and Shelly greeted him from upstairs. Kids.
Lianne (is that her name?) Cartman welcomed her poopsie, hugging him, stroking his hair, and handing him a bag of cheesy poofs. Kids.
Stuart and Carol Mccormick met their son by yelling, throwing bottles at each other. Karen was crying in her mother's arms. Kevin said hi to his brother, Kenny, and they both left home with Karen in tow. Kids.
Mr. and Mrs. Tweek handed their son a much-missed thermos of coffee, which made him shake in relief and pleasure. Kids.
Kids.
