Hi! And here is chapter 4!

WARNING. This chapter like the others contains not so friendly violence and blood.

Also, THIS DOES NOT TAKE PLACE IN THE CANON.

The memories in this chapter DID NOT come from the show, I made them up, along with the characters that Gumball and every other canon character interact with.

Anyway, with that said, enjoy the chapter!

"I'll come back at around three."

"Alright! See you then!"

Nicole left the building, and went off to work.

The teacher looked down at Gumball, who was interested with the paint splatters on the wall, consisting of red, purple, green, yellow, and blue.

"You like the colors?" She asked.

"What's the name of this one?" He asked, as he pointed at one of the colors.

The teacher looked at the color, then looked back at him.

"That one is red." She replied cheerfully.

Gumball looked up at her, with a bland, yet creepy look.

"I like red."

The teacher was taken back a little by the sound of his voice, which sounded emotionless to her.

"Are.. You ok?" She asked, worry appearing on her face. She had never dealt with this before.

"Yep!"

He suddenly was back in his happy, cheerful mood, which was a little relieving for the teacher.

"Well.. If you need anything.. I'll be over there.." She said awkwardly, as she went over to clean up a spill on the floor.

As Gumball looked around the place, a shiny object in a bin caught his eye.

He went over to it and pulled it out from the bin.

With curiosity, he looked it over.

The object was a shiny, golden like toy car, which yes, was real gold.

"Hey!"

Gumball turned, to see a young little girl, about the same age as him, with her hands on her hips and an angry expression on her face.

"Give it back! That's mine!" She shouted, as she pointed at the toy car.

He looked back down at the car, then back at her.

"Okay?.."

The girl was a chocolate colored bear, with bows at her ears, and had pink, heart like pads on her hands.

Telling by her clothes, her family was rich.

She snatched it out of his hands, still glaring.

As she walked away, it fell out of her pocket, which had not been zipped all the way.

He looked at the toy, deciding whether to tell her or not.

The girl quickly turned around, with a still angry look on her face, as she noticed her empty pocket.

Seeing the toy on the ground, she grabbed it again and glared at him.

"What?.."

"Your trying to take it again aren't you?!"

Gumball gave her a confused look, and shook his head no.

"No.. I'm not doing that."

Thinking the response as a lie, the girl continued to argue.

"Liar! You didn't tell me it fell out so you could grab it with your filthy hands again!"

Gumball was now a bit frusterated, since she kept giving excuses.

"I didn't."

Everyone else in the room was looking at the two, with confusion, and also interest to see what would happen.

"STOP LYING!"

The girl stomped her foot on the ground in a spoiled brat way.

"I'm not lying. I'm telling the truth." He said, with a bit of an annoyed look now.

"LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE!" She shouted, which caught the attention of the teacher.

"What's going on here?"

The teacher looked at the two, waiting for an answer.

The girl stomped again, and threw a hissy fit.

"He's trying to steal my toy!"

"I'm not trying to!"

The teacher sighed, since this was a common occurance in the preschool.

"YOU ARE!" The girl shouted, her yelling being able to be heard from across the room.

"AM NOT!"

"Stop arguing you two.." The teacher sighed again, with an annoyed look on her face.

Now very angry, the girl charged towards Gumball, and the two began to fight each other.

"Kids stop it!"

The teacher tried to pull them apart, but failed in doing so.

Gumball grabbed a pencil of the ground, and took the girl by her arm.

She continued to yell and kick, but began to cry in pain, since her arm was starting to hurt.

"Ow! Let go of me!" She yelled, still kicking to get away.

The girl stopped, as she noticed the now emotionless look on his face, and gray lifeless eyes staring at her.

"S..Stop it! Stop being creepy and let me go!"

She still kicked and hit, with anger and pain on her face.

The teacher stood frozen in shock, not knowing what to do.

Then, in a matter of seconds, Gumball raised the pencil up, and stabbed the girl in the arm.

The pencil pierced through, and reached the other end.

She let out a gianormous scream, as she felt the pencil in her arm.

The other children around them screamed as well, and began to back up, fear now written on their face.

And finally, the teacher had a look of horror on her face, her mouth shaped like an o.

"TEACHER HELP ME!" The girl cried, as Gumball continued to stab her.

Now getting back to her senses, the teacher quickly grabbed Gumball by his other arm, and flung him to the shelf, the pencil also leaving the girl's arm.

Gumball let out a cry of pain, as his body hit the shelf hard, making most of the things on it wobble and fall off.

The teacher quickly grabbed the medical kit, and wrapped a bandage on the girl's arm.

All the other children gathered behind the teacher, trying to get as far away from Gumball as possible.

Realizing what he had done, he backed away, and ran out the nearest exit, tears building up.

He shut the door behind him quickly, as he stood in the empty playground around him.

More tears began to come, as he heard them inside.

"Is the monster gone?..." One child asked, still frightened and worried.

"Oww.." the girl began to cry, as the pain continued.

"Don't worry children.. Everything's ok.. It's over.."

The teacher kneeled on the ground, and hugged the children around her.

Seeing this, Gumball turned away, and began to silently walk away, away from the building.

He walked along the edge of the road, as cars went by.

One car stopped next to him, and a lady rolled down her window with worry.

"Hey are you ok?.. Where's your parents?.."

Tears continued to stream down his face, as he told her everything that happened.

A bit shocked at first, the lady gave a sincere smile.

"Come on, I'll take you to your folks. Do you know where they work?"

Gumball thought for a moment, as he remembered earlier about his mother saying something about a 'rainbow factory'.

"The 'Rainbow Factory' I think.." He replied, a little hesitant at first.

The lady unlocked her car doors, and let him sit in the back.

Sitting down, he noticed a person lying next to him, and politly smiled.

"Don't mind Fred back there, he's dead." The lady said, letting out a small chuckle.

Gumball's ears quickly went up in alarm.

"Wait he's dead?! Then that means.."

The lady looked at him with a smile, not bothered by this.

"It's ok kid, I'm a psycho too."

Still a bit disturbed, he decided to overlook this factor.

Soon they arrived at the factory, and the lady parked the car.

As soon as they stepped out, the lady kneeled down, now eye to eye with Gumball.

"Before you go in, I just want to tell you something. Ok?"

He nodded, and let her continue.

"Whatever you do, don't tell anyone, or hint, about your insanity. It can lead to big consequences, and.. Can lead people to.. Be harsh.. And.. Be very, very mean, or.. Even.. Kill.."

Gumball frowned at this, but let her continue.

"Promise me you won't tell?"

She put her pinkie out, signifying they were going to pinkie promise on this.

"I promise."

He put his pinkie in hers, and they both agreed.

"Now, the door's over there. Maybe I'll see you next time?.."

The lady got up and went back to her car.

"Maybe." He replied, as he began to head inside.

The lady smiled, and looked at the dead corpse in the back.

"He's a good kid, right Fred?"

"..."

"Yeah, that's what I thought you would say."

Gumball walked around the building, looking for Nicole.

Co-workers would often look at him with a concerned, yet confused look on their face.

He was stopped by a cloud man, who wore a black suit and looked like a dark cloud.

"Where is your parents?" He asked, with a booming voice.

A bit frightened by the voice, Gumball reluctantly answered.

"In here..."

The man looked around the area, and finally spotted a cubicle in the corner.

"Nicole. Word with you please."

Gumball watched, as his mother came to them, with a bit of a surprised and worried look on her face.

"Is this your child?" The man asked.

"Yes. Sorry Mr. Yoshida."

Nicole looked down at Gumball, with a worried look still on her face.

"Gumball sweetheart, what are you doing here?.."

"Can we talk about this later?.."

Nicole sighed.

"I'm so sorry Mr. Yoshida.. I promise it won't happen again."

Mr. Yoshida nodded.

"Its fine. I'll let you go for today."

"Thank you."

She took Gumball by the hand and walked out of the building.

As soon as they got into the car, Nicole began to speak.

"Ok, tell me now."

A little nervously, he answered.

"Preschool... Wasn't.. That good today.."

"Is that why you came?"

"Well.. It was kind of a bit.. Annoying.. There's a bunch of children there that yell at me all the time, including the teacher.." He said, lying.

"Fine. I'll find another preschool.. Ok?.."

"Okay.."

After that day, it was hard for Nicole to find any preschool at all, since most did not look appealing to her.

But for Gumball, most of the teachers that they came across gave him a worried glance, worrying that he might try and do something to them like at the last preschool.

Of course though, Gumball never told Nicole about what really happened, keeping his promise he made with the lady, and also worrying that she might react the way he wouldn't want her to.

After several years, he sometimes came across some of the children that used to be at the preschool, who would often flat out ignore him, or try to walk away a little faster.

Gumball casually walked down the sidewalk, with his hands in his pockets.

Being only eight years old, he could only walk around the blocks closer to the house.

He was a little bummed about Darwin not being there, but he knew that Darwin was with Richard having some bonding time, so he didn't interfere.

As soon as he crossed the road, he saw a girl about his age about to walk past him.

She looked familiar to him, the clothes, the species she was, it wasn't until then he realized that it was the spoiled girl from a long time ago.

Seeing him, she shrieked a little in surprise.

"You!" She said, a bit disgusted.

A bit alarmed, Gumball took steps back, and no longer had his hands in his pockets.

"Don't think I don't remember you.. I still remember what you did.." She hissed.

She rolled up her sleeve, revealing a long stitch going up her arm.

"I had to get nineteen stitches from that stupid pen-"

Gumball quickly ran off, not wanting anyone else to hear.

"Hey! I'm not done talking yet!" She yelled.

He widened his eyes, as he noticed the girl was now running after him.

He jumped over a fence, expecting her to not follow.

But instead, she did.

"Get back here!"

He jumped another fence, and she did too.

"Just leave me alone!" He shouted, as he continued to jump over fences and bushes.

"WILL YOU JUST STOP ALREADY!"

She finally managed to catch up to him, and pulled him down to the ground.

"Finally. I got you." She said, huffing.

Gumball looked at her with worry in his eyes.

"Now you better not run off again.."

He raised his hands up in defense.

"Please.. Just.. Leave me alone, ok? That was a long time ago, and I don't want anything to do with that ever again.." He said, trying to get her to stop.

"You scarred me for life.. This stitch still haunts me.." She said, a little more calmer now.

"Look, not to make you more mad, but I don't want to deal with this again.. I just want to forget about it.."

The girl looked at him with a confused expression.

"So you're not a psycho anymore?"

Gumball sighed, and tried to explain.

"I'm just trying to keep this.. Secret ok?.. I don't want my family to find out.. Especially my brother.."

"Especially your brother?"

"Yeah.. Especially my brother.. He means the world to me.. And I don't want to screw anything up with that stupid memory.."

The girl began to frown, but in a feeling bad sort of way instead of a mean way.

"You really care about him.. Huh?.."

Gumball looked down, with a bit of sadness.

"Yeah.. He.. He would probably freak out.."

The girl looked down as well, with concern on her face.

"You know what? I think I owe you an apology.."

He looked up at her with a confused expression.

"Why do you have to apologize?.. I'm the one that stabbed you with the pencil.."

The girl looked up too.

"But I was the one who started it.."

"Apology accepted."

He gave her a smile, which made her feel a little better.

"So.. What's your name? I never actually learned it.."

The girl smiled too, and fixed her sleeve.

"Julie. My name's Julie. And yours?"

"Gumball. You know, like the candy."

She laughed a little.

"Huh. Interesting name."

The two began to talk for a while, and now were both smiling.

"Oh, I better get back home. My Mom's going to kill me if I don't come back soon." Gumball said, as he noticed the lighting change.

"I'll see you later Gumball!" Julie said, as she walked back home too.

"Bye!"

He smiled to himself, knowing that at least he finally made amends with her.

"Wow.. That was touching.." Darwin said, with a bit of tears in his eyes.

"I tried to make it not sound like a drama, but your welcome." Gumball replied, shrugging.

"Still though.. That's really sad.."

"But.. I'm still not done yet." Gumball said.

"After a while, It sort of just.. Happened.. Like when we gave Claire that happy ending.. I mean, I.. I can't help it sometimes.. But.. I try and keep it.. Secret still.. Since you know, you.."

Darwin smiled and lightly patted his shoulder.

"It's ok. At least we know how it happened."

"So that's the story huh."

Gumball and Darwin jerked, and looked over at the other side, where they saw the students watching them.

"What the what?! How long have you guys been there?!" Gumball asked, panicking.

"The whole time." They all answered.

"And you too Anais?.." Gumball felt a bit betrayed a little.

"Not in a bad way of course, but.. You were keeping this from us all this time?.." Anais said, with a bit of concern on her face.

"That means we had a psychopath among us all this time?..." Idaho said, with a bit of anger in his voice.

Gumball began to back away, with fear and panic still on his face.

"Guys wait, It's still Gumball! We don't need to get angry about this.." Darwin said, with a bit of nervousness on his face.

"This needs to be stopped.." Banana Joe said, with no funny tone in his voice.

Gumball, Darwin, and Anais, were now worried about the mob of students that were now getting angrier.

"Get him!" one of the students shouted, as the mob got closer.

Gumball continued to back away, and bumped into a figure that he didn't see.

Fear still on his face, he turned around, to see the figure was...

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Oh no! Cliffhanger! Sorry I'm keeping you anticipated, but this chapter is long enough.

Like I said in the beginning, the memories in this chapter, do not exist in the canon.

Josie, the teacher and children, and the lady with the dead body 'Fred', are characters I made up.

Anyway, next chapter will be.. Interesting.

With that said, see you guys in the next chapter!

INSANITY CHAPTER FIVE WILL COME OUT IN DECEMBER.

Sorry.. You'll have to wait to see who the figure was then.

I hope you're patient.

See you later!
