"Is he awake yet?" Sickness asked, still panting from the run.

"No. He's still, Ach!, out."

"Shit. It's been twenty minutes."

"We don't even know what Cartman's done to him. He could be out for hours." Mysterion said as he came into the base.

"Yeah, kid's been with Cartman, and we all know how much he hates humanity." Falcon said, appearing in the corner.

Stan opened one of his eyes, just enough to see several people staring at him. Immediately he shut the eye, and played dead. 'They're the ones who were against The Coon.' He could hear several people talking to each other, in a corner.

"Is he awake yet?" Someone called across the room.

"Not yet Kyle." A gravelly voice answered, seeming irritated.

'This is my chance! If I can convince them that I have no idea who they are, and that won't be so hard, they won't realize!' Stan opened his eyes and stared at the people before him.

"He's awake Kyle." The owner of the gravelly voice, a boy with a green question mark on top of his cloak, said.

A boy in a green hat ran to Stan's side. 'So you're that bastard Kyle?' He thought to himself.

"Stan!" Kyle said, excitement creeping into his voice.

'Time to milk this amnesia thing.'

"Where am I?" He said, sitting up despite the pain in his head.

"You're at the base. We were able to save you from Cartman."

"Who's Cartman?" Stan asked, watching as the cloaked boy glanced at a dark figure.

"You don't know Cartman? He's the guy who kidnapped you."

"Uh… you're Cartman?" Stan asked.

Kyle stepped back, and walked over to the cloaked boy, and exchanged a glance with him. The cloaked boy raised an eyebrow. "Can you remember anything?"

"I remember The Coon, and being brought to some building, but nothing else."

The room was engulfed in silence for several minutes. 'Wow, much easier to lie if it's the truth.'

"Uh… Kyle, come with me for a few seconds?" A blond boy asked his leader.

"Wait a minute Timmy, I'm trying to think."

"Now would be a good time."

"Fine."

"What is it?"

"That's not Stan."

"What do you mean 'that's not Stan'?"

"The Coon changed him. I went into his thoughts, and he was thinking about convincing us of something. He called you a bastard with his thoughts."

Kyle stared at him for several moments, before saying "Does he have amnesia?"

"Yes, I think that's the only reason that The Coon could change him. I'm sorry. We should tell the others, before he does anything that we might regret."

"Can we make him remember?"

"Maybe. Usually amnesia ends when they see something familiar. Maybe that's why The Coon was taking him to Tom's, to test if it really worked."

"Get Mysterion. Of all people he would know what to do in a problem like this."

Timmy walked back down into the basement, and when he returned Mysterion was next to him.

"What's wrong?" Mysterion asked.

"Stan's not normal."

"I guessed that."

"No, I mean not just the amnesia."

"I know Kyle."

"How?"

"Why would The Coon bring him to a spot where he would obviously be ambushed, and just teleport away without caring that he left a hostage behind?"

"Uh…"

"He wouldn't."

"So what do we do about Stan?"

"Restrain him?"

"Dude, we're not Cartman. We don't 'restrain' them!"

"Then what, pray tell, do you have in mind?"

"Convince him, who we are?"

Mysterion stared at him, as if he had three heads. "What?" Kyle asked.

"You're joking. They've already convinced him who we are! He'll think that we're the evilest people ever, Cartman is the best person, and he'll want to kill us all!"

"How do you know?"

"It's obvious. The Stan we knew is trapped inside this… New Stan."

"So what do we do about New Stan?"

"I have no idea. If Cartman did this then Stan will be 100% against us. And if I know Cartman he'll be mostly against you."

"So, what do we do?"

"We can't convince him to join us, Cartman already did. We can't restrain him. Taking him to places that hold memories doesn't seem to help, Cartman tried it. I don't know what to say Kyle."

"We have to bring Stan back!"

"Kyle, if there was a way that I could save him do you think that I wouldn't?"

"I don't know. My mind is a little fucked up right now!"

'First Stan gets kidnapped, then he gets kidnapped again with Damien. Then Cartman does who knows what to him, and makes him forget his entire life. Then he trains Stan to hate us! What's gonna happen to him next?' Kyle wanted to say, but he knew not to.

He remembered the Casa Bonita event. Kyle didn't want to have his party without an acquaintance. This time the person missing was his best friend. And he wasn't missing. He was right there.

But he wasn't Stan, thanks to Cartman. He was different. He wasn't the Stan that he knew. This was a kid that Cartman manipulated. 'First you give me AIDS. Then you pit me against my best friend. I will kill you Cartman.'

"We have to help him get back." Kyle said more to himself then Kenny.

'Get the hell away you evil bastards!' Stan thought, tempted to say it aloud, as they started trying to get him to remember his life, or as Stan thought the lies.

'No, I have to do what The Coon said. Once I kill Kyle, I can go back.'

"Remember when you became really emo after Wendy dumped you? You even joined the Goth Kids, and acted real creepy for a week." A small British boy, named Pip said.

"When the hell was that?" He had been told that his old self worked for The Coon, not them.

"Does he remember anything?" The boy named Kyle said, coming back in.

"Only his name, and Cartman taught him that." A boy in dark clothing, who seemed to disappear into the background at times, said.

"Stan, remember me?"

'No, but I know that you have to be captured.'

"No, I don't remember you." Stan said starting to get irritated. How many people were going to ask him if he remembered?

Mysterion glanced at Kyle and shook his head. 'Are they onto me?'

"Stan, what did The Coon say to you?" He said in a dark gravelly voice. Stan felt the headache's grow worse just by hearing him.

"I…uh… can't remember."

Mysterion whispered something to Kyle, who had a sad look on his face. 'Why is he so sad? He has his captive.'

"Guys, Stan is a working for Cartman." The words burned into him, and he stared in shock at Mysterion.

'How did you know?'

Kyle watched in horror as Stan launched himself at him. His best friend wrapped an arm around his neck. "You better be watching Coon." He could hear Stan mutter under his breath.

"Stan, what the hell are you doing?" Kyle asked.

"The Coon said he needs you."

"Why are you working for Cartman?"

"He saved me from you assholes!"

This was definitely not the Stan that Kyle knew. This Stan was Cartman controlled, and would stop at nothing to do whatever Cartman asked him.

"Saved you? We saved you!"

"What are you talking about?"

"We saved you from Cartman! You were kidnapped, and taken to his base, then we tried to save you. We failed and Cartman got Damien, and then we tried again and we finally succeeded."

Stan seemed to wince, and stepped back from Kyle. He gripped his head, and slowly stepped away. "What the hell?" He asked no one. Stan's eyes closed, and he collapsed onto the floor.

Kyle stared at him. Mysterion walked over and rested his fingers on Stan's arm. For a second his face was clouded, and disappointed. Suddenly relief flushed into his eyes. "He's not dead, just unconscious."

"Where did you learn to do that?"

"I've seen enough people try to check for a heartbeat while I'm waiting to die. The waiting sucks so I just watch how people react to a little boy dying. It's actually interesting."

"Kenny what do we do?"

"I think that's what made him collapse earlier."

"What made him collapse earlier!"

"Memories. For some reason, his mind won't let him regain any memories. When he starts to remember he shuts down. There's no way to get the old Stan back."

"No! There has to be a way! He's Stan! He came up with a plan, and got me Cartman's kidney before, I can come up with a plan to get back his memory."

"This isn't normal amnesia. Do you really think Cartman would be smart enough to come up with this plan?"

"True, he is stupid."

"Not stupid, but not clever. He is good at evil plans, but he wouldn't think of this plan, if Stan would just remember by seeing places and people his plan would fail, and we'd have him. If I'm right someone in Cartman's army can control minds better than Timmy could even attempt. Because they ruined Stan's mind."

"So Timmy can cure him?" Kyle hung to the hope that maybe, his best friend could snap out of it.

"I guess… we could try." Mysterion said doubtfully. Kyle knew that this wouldn't work, but he would do anything in his power.

"How do you know so much about Cartman's plans?"

"I'm Mysterion. I think ahead. The second that Cartman asked me to join him, I called a friend. He's on the inside."

"And he didn't save Stan?"

"He was waiting for the right time. Still is."

"What right time!"

"When I need him here, he will come. But since you asked, most of these things I know from my friendship with Fatass. But my spy did tell me one thing."

"What?"

"Jimmy is working for Cartman, and he has powers. My spy doesn't know what powers, and when he does he will tell me, but I think you can guess. He was there when Stan started losing his memory."

"So… It's Jimmy."

"Yeah."

"Can you ask your spy to kill him?"

"No, we're not Cartman. We don't kill in cold-blood."

"He made my friend forget his entire life, want to kill us, and makes him like Cartman."

"Still didn't kill him. I'm not letting you snoop down to Cartman's level."

"He's too low a level for me to hit!"

"No Kyle. You're reaching it. You want to kill Jimmy, when you don't even know the full story. Why do you think Cartman sent Stan here? Once Stan did something like this, he expects it to break our spirits. We can't let him do that to us. We have to keep fighting, but Kyle if you react to this in blind anger he'll think that he won."

"I just can't believe what that bastard did."

"You're better than him Kyle."

"Mysterion!" Clyde said running up the stairs. "Stan's talking about something. A memory."
