Chapter 4: Descent into Darkness
The past few weeks were hard on Bart. Now that Bartman was gone, it was as if there was no purpose in life anymore. Bart and Milhouse had a falling out because of it. Bart knew Springfield needed a hero but he just wasn't up to it. At the same time, Bart wondered; What would he do now?
One day after school, Bart was at the Kwik-E-Mart by himself, enjoying the last of a giant squishee. He left the store and began his saddened walk home. As he was passing the place where Ms. Glick used to live, he heard the dreaded sound of Dolph, Jimbo and Kearney laughing. His first idea was to run away as fast as he could but when tried that idea, he ran right into Jimbo.
"Where are you going snotball?" He asked.
"Umm. H-H-Home?" Bart answered, He found he was more terrified of the bullies than ever since he retired.
"Not until you help us with something." Jimbo grabbed Bart's hand and try as he might, he couldn't escape it's grip. Jimbo dragged him to the backyard of Ms Glick's house where Dolph and Kearney were waiting with a big toy rocket. It was aimed straight for the church. Dolph approached Bart and handed him a lighter.
"You do the honors or you eat a knuckle sandwich. The choice is yours." He said. With the bullies surrounding him, fist armed and ready, Bart realized he had no choice.
"Please forgive me God. That's your thing right?"
Bart turned on the match and lit the rocket. After a few seconds, the rocket shot up into the sky and did a few twist and turns.
"Oooh." Both the bullies and Bart uttered.
For some reason, the rocket's smoke settled into the term YVAN EHT NIOJ .
"Ahhh!" The group said. "I don't know why, but I wanna join the navy." Jimbo said.
The rocket, finished with it's little show, wedged itself into the roof of the church and exploded. Reverend Lovejoy ran outside to see tha damage.
"Oh not again!" He cried.
The bullies burst into laughter and to Bart's surprise, he was joining them. Sure, Bart loved a good prank every couple of hours but there was a limit to what he would do on purpose. But something inside him awakened with the explosion. Something even more evil than his normal mischief. Bart continued to laugh evilly while the bullies watched.
"Dude. It's not that funny." Jimbo said.
"I'm bored. Let's draw superhero yaoi and force Comic Book Guy to look at it. You coming Bart?"
"Hell yeah!" Bart shouted, wanting to spread his evil even more. The group walked toward town shouting "Yaoi Yaoi Yaoi!"
(Disclaimer: I am not attacking Yaoi. This is just a joke.)
