Can you believe this story is over a year old and at nearly 2000 views?! That's a lot of people! Anyway, I'm sorry it took me a while to update! Without any reviews/follows/etc, I don't have a lot of motivation to keep writing! Knowing someone took the time to review or follow the story makes me realize that there's an audience who wants to read!

Spongebob's House, 124 Conch Street, Bikini Bottom, 11 AM, Day 8

"Spongebob! Spongebob!" yelled the pink starfish running towards the windowed pineapple.

"Hey, what is it buddy?"

"I don't know how to get food!"

"What do you mean?"

"My microwave isn't working! I wanted to make a thing of InstaKelp!"

"What did you do yesterday? My power's been off since then."

"I didn't realize it. I went to the Krusty Krab for lunch and dinner."

"What about breakfast, pal?"

"I had a muffin!"

"But Patrick! Didn't you realize your lights were off?"

"Yeah, but I thought it was going to stop. Why can't everything go back to normal?"

"It will. We just need to give it time. Come on inside, I have a bagel with your name on it!"

"Ok.. Happy Sunday."

Police Station, Bikini Bottom, 1 PM, Day 8

Chief Priss was in his office with mayor Mliffly. The mayor had driven to the station to meet with Priss regarding the sudden loss of power across the town.

"I still say we send someone over to Grouperton and see if they have power," said Priss.

"And who would you send?"

"Myself, Fred, Nancy, a few other people."

"People would think their law enforcement is abandoning them."

"We have 284 cops in this town. I think people will be alright for a few days."

"[Chief Priss, we have a situation!]" said Officer Chris Flounder.

"[What's going on?]"

"[Civil Unrest...]"

"[I'll be right there!]"

"Bye, chief Priss. I hope this passes quickly," said Mliffly. Al Priss ran out of the room and drove downtown with other officers in riot gear.

Dun, dun, dun! Well, civil unrest in Bikini Bottom! Thanks for reading! And remember to REVIEW, LIKE, AND/OR FOLLOW THE STORY! I enjoy writing. However, it gets a lot less fun if I don't have a reason to... If I know someone read the whole story and is interested in it, I'll keep writing for them, and for everyone by extension. So please, please don't be a passive reader! Be an active reader if you like the story! :)

Update 9/6/15: Hi! It is me! Anyway, the original creator of spongebob(Stephen Hillenburg) is coming back to make the show! He worked on the episode Lost In Bikini Bottom/TutorSauce. I found them hilarious when I randomly saw them one day! In fact, I wrote details into a chapter of this fanfic(Squidward mentions catching Scott's pedicab). Anyway, the new episode tomorrow is about Patrick going into the world of business(I'll bring any little details from that into this story). I'm forgetting if that one is by Hillenburg, but I do not think so. Condensed Version: New spongebob episodes on labor day. Original show creator returns for new season Friday the 18th. Will work details into the story!
