Chapter 24: The Wish
Ambulances arrived at Elmore Junior High, to take Injured Principal Brown to The Hospital. Gumball, His Family, and His Friends Darwin, Penny, and Carrie decide to Go to The Hospital. Inside one of The Ambulances, The Band-Aid's try to help Nigel, as they hook him up to those Hospital things. Nigel lifts his head slowly, then looks at The Window to The Ambulance. His Vision is Blurred, then see's a Some Cars behind him. He then said in a Very, Very Weak tone, "Gum...Ball." Then, Brown's head falls back down on The Mobile Bed, Not doing anything else. The Band-Aids noticed Brown is still Not Moving, as One of them grabs The Defibrillators to try to Shock his heart to work. The Band-Aid guy rubs The Defibrillators together, then places them on Brown's Chest. The Band-Aid shouted, "Clear!" Then, shocks Brown's Body. But Doesn't work, so he Tried again. "Clear!" Said The Band-Aid once again, but Still didn't Work. They try it One more time, But never worked.
The Ambulances arrive at The Hospital, along With Gumball and Darwin's Family, Penny's Family, and Carrie. The Band-Aid Doctors rush Principal Brown into a Hospital Room, As One of the Doctors told The Visitors, "Sorry, Nigel can't be bothered with Visitors at the Moment. We are going to do what we can, to help him. You can all spend the night here. We will notify you to know what happens during our Job." Gumball is Super worried, he tells his Mom, "If he Dies, It will be all my Fault." Gumball starts Crying, and is Hugging his Mom. Nicole told Gumball as she shushes him, "There would've been nothing you could've done for this to happen. Things Happen for a Reason, and we can't change what happens." Nicole tries to comfort his son the best she can, telling him, "It's Okay, I'm here." Gumball tells his Father, "Dad, Call his Friends. They need to know about this." Gumball continues Crying, while hugging his Mother. Gumball would Blame himself, If anything bad happened to Brown. Nicole got worried about her son, She told Gumball, "I thought you Never Liked him." Penny puts her hand on his Shoulder, then told Gumball, "I think It's time we tell them all, What Marcus did to him in his Life." Gumball calmed down after Penny kissed him on the check, then said, "Everyone, I'm going to tell you all something Principal Brown told me Never to tell. But, You should all know what happened." Gumball tells them a Long Story about What happened in their Quest, and What Brown told Gumball back in The Chamber. As he told on, Time Passed. Everyone was surprised at this, Gumball continued on about What Marcus did to Nigel, that caused him to be the man he is today. (Emotional Music plays During Gumball's Story, as The Voices of The Characters can't be heard.) Gumball then tells Everyone About their Journey, and How Much Lives were lost, Like Columbus and Joshua's Parents.
In The Hospital Room, The Doctors are washing The Blood off of Nigel, from his Battle with Marcus. Then, is Put on a Hospital Bed, to try to help him. A Mask was placed over his Mouth, They did X-Ray's on him, and The Band-Aids got shocked to find something bad inside of him. Oh, and They got some guys to Repair his Glasses too.
It turned Mourning, as Everyone woke up from Slumber. Gumball looks at The Clock, then sees it is 9:35 A.M.. One of The Band-Aids went into The Visitor Room, then Gumball asked with a sad worried tone, "Is Brown Okay?" Miss Simian freaks out, then asks the same thing Gumball asked earlier, while shaking The Band-Aid Guy. The Band-Aid sighed, then waited 10 Seconds to tell. (So it would have a Pausing effect for anyone who reads This.) The Band-Aid finally spoke to everyone, "We did all we could. Nigel Brown is Alive..." Gumball got relieved, But The Band-Aid continued, "But, We found some shocking results while fixing him. Nigel will Live for The Rest of his life. But we did some Surgery on him Last Night, and Found this." The Band-Aid is now holding The Bullet that Shot Principal Brown. He then tells everyone, "We found this in his Back." Gumball corrects, "That's Impossible, He was Shot in The Chest." The Band-Aid tells Him, "True, But the Bullet missed his Heart and Crashed into his spine on impact." Gumball looks Puzzled, then asks The Doctor, "Are you saying, It Shot his Spine?" The Doctor tilted his head down, answering Yes. Then tells Everyone, "He will have to be in a Wheelchair for The Rest of his Life, For he will Never walk again." This made Gumball Super sad, then covers his face as he cries. The Band-Aid tells Everyone, "He is awake, and wants a Visit someone in here Named: Gumball Watterson." Gumball runs out of The Hospital crying his heart out, The Wattersons started to follow Gumball. They spot Gumball on the Side-walk out of The Hospital, as Gumball is making a scene. The Wattersons try to comfort Gumball, as he tells them, "It's my fault this happened. If I talk to him, He might blame me for all of this." Darwin tries to cheer him up telling him, "It's not your Fault, It was Marcus." Gumball corrects while still crying, "It's My Fault Marcus did this to him. I never asked for this to happen, Even before I started to like him." Nicole hugs Gumball, then tells asks Him, "Do you want to wait for a week before we leave?" Gumball thinks to himself, then shakes his head up and down, Yes.
The Band-Aid walks back into The Room Principal Brown was in. Nigel asked, "Where is Gumball?" The Doctor told him, "He didn't want to see you. He got sad, then left. I'm sorry." Nigel asks, "How long am I going to be here?" The Doctor tells him, "A Week from yesterday."
One Week Later.
Inside of Elmore Junior High, a Furry Slug in a Wheelchair enters The Office. He sighs in sadness, then rolls into The Office. The Office has a Stack of Empty Boxes, so He can pack up everything he owns in it, Because he got Fired. He hears a Knock on the door, as The Slug tells someone, "Come in." The Person who entered The Office is a Anthropomorphic Cloud with a Pony tail, Rainbow Shirt, and Sandals. He is a Friend to The Slug. The Slug said, "Oh, Hello Steve." Steve asked The Slug, "So, You Packing Principal Brown?" Nigel sighs, then tells him, "That's not who I am anymore. I must accept the fact I've been fired. Yes, I'm Packing. I don't belong here, so I am leaving for good." Steve asks, "Where will you go?" Nigel sighs again, then tells him, "I don't know. Where ever the Wind blows me I guess. Can you help me Pack?" Steve agrees to help Nigel pack up his things. Just then, a Baboon comes into The Office next, then asks, "Mind if I help?" And they let Miss Simian help them both. A Few Hours past, and Nigel is down to his last possession. His Painted Diploma. He speaks to it, "I would've kept this Job if you were real. Your no Use to me now." Both Lucy and Steve look at Brown awkwardly, then Steve said, "And I thought Me and My Friends can talk to walls." Brown continues talking to The Fake Diploma, "You Helped me Cheat my way into getting this Job, But It's time to say Goodbye, My old Friend." Nigel touched it, then surprisingly felt something popping out of The Wall. He Notices a Picture Frame over his Painted Wall, He then says, "That's strange, I never put in a Picture Frame over it." Brown takes the Frame off, then looks at The Wall in Surprise. He said to them, "The Fake Diploma, It's Gone." Steve looks at The Frame with Something on it. He Examines it, then gasps with surprise. Steve tells Brown, "This is Real." Nigel got shocked then said, "What? No, It can't be." Miss Simian looks at it too, then tells him, "This is a Real Diploma!" Brown grabs The Frame, looks at it, then gasps to Find an Actual Diploma of Education in The Frame. Nigel is astonished as he says, "But, How? I never did anything to Earn it." Steve spots a Note Taped behind The Frame, then tells Nigel, "There is a letter behind it." Nigel turns The Frame around, then see's An Envelope. He takes the tape off, and opens The Envelope. He Finds a Message on it, that is meant for Brown to see. He Reads it, and it says, "Dear Reader, this Message is for Nigel Brown. If you are not Nigel, leave this Message alone or Give it to him. Dear Nigel Brown: If you are Reading this, then you found The Letter. Ever since I met you, I thought you were Boring and Mean. But I was Wrong. I wanted to make it up to you, for being a terrible student to you. I never realized you did this Because of Marcus. So back in the Chamber when The Keepers let us make our wishes with The Chrysalis of Power, I wished you up An Actual Diploma so you don't have to worry about losing your job. I had to, because I Pity you for our rivalry. I hope I've Earned your Trust and Friendship for doing this. If that's not enough, I wish I could find another way, but I'm going to accept I'm Leaving Elmore. Take Care of Yourself, and Never Give up. Sincerely: Gumball Tristopher Watterson." Nigel finished reading The Letter, then he smiled as a Tear drops onto The Paper. Miss Simian asks Her Ex, "Well, What does it say?" Nigel whispered, "He did this, For me?" Nigel stops weeping tears of happiness, then tells Miss Simian and Mr. Small, "We need to get to The Airport Fast. I Need to find Watterson."
Okay, There could be 2 Chapters left to Finish after this. So I wanted to have one Happy Ending finished, But there is One left to do. I will do it soon. So, Will Principal Brown get to see Gumball one last time, before he leaves? Find out next time.
The Double U out.
