Ch. 4
Gumball arrived at his brothers apartment and knocked, no one answered. He typed in the security code and entered. Everything in the house didn't look like stuff his brother would own, like work out stuff and a keyboard
"Edward? Are you home?" asked Gumball, but he got no answer
(ICS)
"How about baby face Marcos?" asked Lisa
"Are you kidding, NEXT" said Robinson angrily
Mr. Robinson was looking for a new convict for his show
"How about Simon Parker, he killed his mother and law and wife at a pta dinner party with a steak knife" said a tiger
"That's what I'm looking for in a criminal, but there's one flaw. The guy weighs 120 pounds he won't last a minute in the field" said Robinson
"How about those guys who made the suicide pills and robbed a bank?" asked a Robin
"Did they commit suicide?" asked Robinson
"Obviously not sir" said the robin
"Then they're useless" said Robinson
"Well you've got to pick someone" said the tiger
Robinson was watching the footage from the prison break and was impressed by Gumball
"Who is that cat?" asked Robinson
"Sir that's Gumball Watterson" said the robin
"The butcher of Bakersfield. That's the guy I want on my show, get me that cat" said Robinson
"Can't have him" said Lisa
"Why not?" asked Robinson angrily
"You know the rules sir, we can't get military prisoners" said Lisa
"You guys better get me that cat for this Saturday's show, OR YOU'RE ALL FIRED" shouted Robinson angrily
(Edward's Apartment)
A Peanut girl with antlers walked into the apartment carrying shopping bags. Her name was Penny Fitzgerald
"Lights on. Kitchen, coffee and toast. TV, ICS channel 1, it's time for my workout show" said Penny as she put a mat on her living room floor
A muscular man appeared on the TV
"Are you ready for pain? Are you ready for suffering? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then you're ready for captain Freedom's workout" said the strong man
"That's right; America's own, Captain Freedom, 10 time running man stalker champion is here to get you into shape"
"We're going to start with some sit ups" said Freedom
Penny got on the mat and started doing sit ups
"We interrupt Captain Freedom's workout for this urgent message. Yesterday, 45 year old Gumball Watterson escaped from prison. Over 18 months ago he went berserk and killed over a hundred people during the Bakersfield massacre. This man is extremely dangerous. If you see him, contact the police immediately, and now back to captain freedoms workout" said a newswoman
A hand touched Penny's shoulder and she screamed
"I've been getting that a lot lately. Now who are you?" asked Gumball
"I'm Penny Fitzgerald, how'd you get in here?" asked Penny
"This is my brother's apartment, what are you doing here?" asked Gumball
"I moved in last month, they told me the last person who lived here was taken away for reeducation" said Penny
"Oh Edward, up to his old tricks again" said Gumball
Penny attempted to run but gumball kept her from leaving
"HELP, THE BUTCHER OF BAKERSFIELD IS IN MY HOUSE" shouted Penny
"That's it, feel the burn, you know you love it" said Freedom on the tv
Gumball tackled her onto her bed
"Listen, everything you heard was a lie, I was framed. I didn't kill anyone, my crew did" said Gumball
Penny kept trying to get away but Gumball held her still
"Don't hurt me" begged Penny
"Don't worry, I won't" said Gumball as he got up and rummaged through her stuff
Penny got on one of her exercise machines and continued her workout
"Money, I could use money" said Gumball as he grabbed a bunch of cash from a small bin and put in his pocket
"That money won't do you any good if you're planning to go somewhere, you don't even have a travel pass" said Penny
"But you do, and now I do" said Gumball as he took a travel pass out of Penny's pants
"Now where do you think we should go?" asked Gumball
"We?" asked Penny
"I can't let you go now that you've seen me. Now how about someplace warm, I need to work on my tan and heat up my fur. It's so cold and dark in prison" said Gumball "I got it, Hawaii"
"Why should I go with you?" asked Penny angrily
Gumball put his paw on her chest
"Because I'm going to say please" said Gumball as he sank his claws into her shell
"Ow, ow, okay I'll go with you" said Penny angrily
