If you read the "Return of the King" chapter, this chapter continues that story. Plus, What if Peter was "different?"
Description: The Hero becomes the "Villain." Peter is now on the run by Freedom City. The kids in South Park use their superhero personas to go after him. Part 1 of 4.
After a frenzied search for Newton, Unikitty and Newton were having some time together at a cafe.
POOF!
When everything cleared, a purple hedgehog came from floating down.
"Magi-Chan?" Newton said.
"Newton?" Magi-Chan said. "Thank goodness all of you are here!"
"What seems to be the problem?" Unikitty said.
"You may not believe it, but Peter has betrayed us!"
"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?" Newton mouthed out loud.
"I know it's hard to believe, but you need to get everyone in South Park and meet me at the town hall."
Soon, the entire town of South Park gathered around the main hall.
"I wonder what's up?" A woman whispers to her husband.
Magi-Chan appeared in front of everyone.
"Peter has betrayed you! He's planning to put Chris-Chan back as mayor of Freedom City and renaming it CWCville!" He said.
"What?"
"This can't be!"
"But we trusted him!"
"I know you have questions, but we need to head over to Freedom City to discuss what happened further!"
With an instant snap of his fingers, Magi-Chan brought everyone to Freedom City. The people of South Park looked around. Wanted posters of remaining members of Christine's army were everywhere. Peter was the main target though with a 15 million dollar bounty.
"Wow, 15 million?" Kyle said. "How can one person cause so much?"
"The point is," Magi said. "Is that Peter betrayed us. We're in the town hall discuss things further."
When everyone arrived at the town hall, all of Peter's friends from the resistance were drawing out plans.
"He can't have gone far," Sonichu said. "He is very, very smart. He would often lead us to wild goose chases."
"I think he ditched his phone," Rosechu added.
"Hey, excuse me..." Newton began.
"Or Peter might give us false information and will lead us to some trap so that he can finish all of us off!" Punchy said.
"HEY!" Newton yelled.
Everyone grew silent and looked at Newton.
"What happened?" Newton said.
"I got this whole thing recorded on video." Bubbles said.
FLASHBACK...
It was the Freedom City's Battle Royal.
Music: "Battle Royal" from Pokemon Sun and Moon.
"Here at the Battle Royal, the crowd is filled to the brim with excitement! Now let's meet our contenders!"
Peter showed up in the green corner.
"In the Green Corner, we have Peter sending out Mimikyu!"
A gray-colored Mimikyu popped out. It was a rare alternated-colored version that many trainers called a Shiny.
"In the Yellow Corner, we have Steve sending out Charizard!"
A Charizard belonging to Steve appeared in the yellow corner.
"In the Red Corner, we have Tristan sending out Rotom!"
A fire/electric Rotom appeared.
"An in the Blue Corner, we have Courtney sending out Gardevoir!"
Courtney called out Gardevoir. An overhead view of the battlefield is shown.
"The Battle Royal begins now!"
A fighting clang is heard as the battle began.
"Can we fast forward?" Newton said.
"Alright." Bubbles said.
Everything fast forwards to the key moment. After the contest, Peter went up to the leaders of Freedom City.
"I've been thinking..." Peter said.
"What?" David said.
"Maybe Christian Weston Chandler isn't as bad as we think he is?"
That sent everyone into hysterics.
"WHAT?!" Courtney said. "Christian's a smelly-ass man who lives with his mother and gets banned frequently in numerous places!"
"He knocked Michael Snyder down with his van!" Alex added.
"He blamed ED on the drawing he drew on Megan and him making out!" Steve continued.
"He demonized me in his comics!" Mary Lee Walsh said.
"He treated all of us badly!" The Chaotic Combo said along with Sonichu and Rosechu. "It's all about him and not us!"
"And worse of all..." SNT summarized. "Was that he blamed others for his failures and not himself!"
"STOP TALKING ABOUT CHRIS-CHAN!" Everyone shouted.
Peter still tried to make himself loud and clear.
"Anyway, I've done some digging. Chris-Chan has been abused by his parents at a young age, and after being locked in his room by an abusive babysitter, he was unable to speak for 6 years."
"BORING! He's cruel, evil, and that's it!" Anna said.
Peter only spoke louder.
"While his father was alright with him, his mother was a hoarder and used suicide as threats for Christian and her husband. When Christian's father died, her abuse on Christian escalated. Christian can no longer sleep in separate rooms, being forced to sleep next to her in case she wanted something. And when Christian tried to resist, his mother got super pissed and wrecked everything he owned. All for just sleeping separate to her."
The video ended there.
"Huh?" Newton said.
"I ran out of memory." Bubbles said. "But after that, Peter became enraged that we didn't sympathize with Christian and called us predators. He then went on to say that he wanted to apologize to Christian for all of this. To which we refused. Now, we have no traces of him anywhere."
"But Peter seemed to know what he's talking about," Newton said.
"Yes, but Christian is a horrible person, and we cannot trust Peter to change his errors," Sonichu added.
"We sent his former friends to go look for him, but they turned out empty," Magi-Chan added.
"We'll go look for him!" Newton said.
"Really? You would do that?" Wild said.
"Yes. I need to find him and..." Newton began before making up a lie. "...bring him to justice!"
"Huh?" Everyone in South Park said.
"Come on, we can't expect Peter to explain his side?" Newton said.
The people of South Park soon knew what Newton is talking about and pretended to go along to.
"One question," Cartman said. "How are we going to take on Peter? He's smarter than all of us!"
"Do you play superheroes?" Magi-Chan said.
"Yeah, so?" Stan said.
With a touch of "magic", Magi-Chan used his "magic" to turn the kids of South Park into superheroes. Mainly, the ones they made up.
"I'm the Coon!" Cartman said.
"Human Kite!" Kyle said.
"Toolshed!" Stan said.
"Call Girl!" Wendy said.
"Super Craig!" Craig said.
Let's skip all of that now. The superheroes all did their battle pose.
"So what do you guys call yourselves?" Newton said.
"Coon and Friends!" Everyone said.
"Wait, isn't it Freedom Pals?" Chris said.
"Let's not start that up again..." Karin groaned.
"We made up our heroes to fight for crime and a chance to be in a movie." Call Girl said.
"Like the MCU?" Johnson said.
"Yes, we're currently working on phase 1 with a Coon Netflix series," Toolshed said.
"Did you get a lead on Peter's location?" Newton said.
"We last saw him heading into the forest," Magi-Chan said.
When our heroes arrived in the forest. They heard a man screaming for help.
"We got to help him!" Call Girl said.
The Coon and Friends arrived at found a chained up Robert Downey Jr lookalike if he gave up on life and started drinking. They soon released him.
"Thanks. Some weird guy who blames me for killing his parents chained me up here." He said in a bubbly tone.
"Who was that?" Human Kite said.
"He was wearing a black hoodie and was wearing a dark blue knit cap. That's all I know." He said.
"Wait..." Newton said, thinking about the description. "That's Peter! Why would he hold this guy hostage?"
"Didn't you hear?" Chris said. "The guy said that Peter accused him of killing his parents."
"That's not Peter at all. I know! Someone's trying to frame him!" Unikitty concluded.
Everyone looked at her.
"Really?" Super Craig said.
After freeing the hostage, no signs Peter was found. Coon and Friends returned to Freedom City.
"No sign of him?" Sonichu said.
"No. We found a person that was held hostage though. He claims that Peter held him there." Coon said.
"That gives us more proof that Peter did indeed betrayed us." Rosechu summarized.
As Rosechu continued her long-winded speech, Newton walked over to Call Girl and whispered something to her. Call Girl checked the phone of the man that Peter held hostage.
"According to his phone, he was a hitman hired by some person named Kellie to assassinate... Peter's parents?!" Newton read to himself.
"We better show the evidence to Magi-Chan right away." Call Girl said.
"Wait!" Newton said, stopping her.
"What?"
"We need to dig up more info," Newton said. "We can't just show texts between Kellie and that guy."
Before anyone can say anything further, one guard of Freedom City arrived up to Magi-Chan. He whispered something into his ear.
"Thank you, Benjamin. Everyone, we got a sighting of Peter!"
Everyone chattered to each other.
"Follow us!" Sonichu said.
Peter
I was in some sort of open space good enough for a battlefield. That was when I saw them.
The followers of Chris-Chan. They called themselves "The Resistance". All they are just going to do is to be like Chris-Chan. Although Freedom City was acting like that already.
"Peter!" Their leader Kellie exclaimed. "I was so worried about you! We were just in the middle of launching our attack on Freedom City when we found you!"
"I... I..." I stammered.
"Get hands off him." Another voice said.
I turned to find Magi-Chan along with the members from Freedom City behind me. My friends were there also.
"Peter, you're safe!" Stan said, now dressed as a handyman.
"Stan!" I said.
"It's not Stan! I'm Toolshed!"
"Yeah, whatever."
"Join us, Peter. And we can rid of Freedom City's evil rule!" Kellie said.
"Be careful Peter, that person has no heart!" Angelica Rosechu said.
A handful of more people came out from Kellie's side.
"There you are, Peter! I was worrying that you might run off again!" Night Star said.
A flame bird who looked like Kazooie from Banjo-Kazooie flew from the sky.
"Squawk! I'm glad you're okay, Peter. You must be so lucky! Squawk!" Flame said.
A Rosechu came in from flying.
"Yay! We got our brother back!" Zapina Rosechu said.
"B-Brother?!" Cartman said, dressed as his Coon persona.
"You scum!" SNT said. "First you kidnap him, and now you lie to him? He's our friend, not your brother!"
"You are mistaken. Peter is our sweet brother. You may not have him." Night Star said.
"I never said I was your brother!" I said.
"Come home to us, Peter!" Magi-Chan said.
"Our side is your home!" Kellie said.
"P-Peter?" Butters said, dressed as a supervillain stammered.
"He's our friend!" Zapina said running in.
Everyone looked at me. Usually, this would be a difficult choice, but I knew exactly what to do.
"I... won't turn against anyone," I said.
"Ah, so you are going to explain how you see the positives on each side?" Courtney said.
"No, both of you are as equally as bad as Chris-Chan himself. The followers of Chris-Chan simply became tyrants for their pleasure while Freedom City has been enslaving ponies, Pokemon, and autistics. Even those who did not participate in the battle. I made up my mind, I'm not going back to either of you." I stated.
"I see what you're doing here Peter..." Magi-Chan said. "You're trying to manipulate us!"
"No. I'm stating the fact."
"Then allow me to fight," Kellie said.
"Everyone, attack!" Magi-Chan ordered. "Are you ready, everyone?"
"I was born ready!" Kenny said in his Mysterion persona.
"You jerks, I'll kill all of you!" Super Craig said.
"You're coming with us, Peter, understood?" Call Girl said.
"Resistance, prepare for battle!" Kellie said.
"Peter, you better be praying a prayer." Night Star said.
"Squawk! Let's do this!" Flame squawked.
"Yay! We're going to take Peter home!" Zapina said.
Both sides started fighting. I decided that it was time to flee.
After Peter's escape, both sides stopped fighting.
"Everyone! Spread the word! Peter is lost to us!" Kellie said.
"Everybody in Freedom City should know that Peter has betrayed us!" Magi-Chan said. "If he sets foot in this city again, he will be beheaded for treason!"
"Yeah!" Everyone said.
As everyone left to return to their respective bases, no one noticed Peter's friends silently leaving the battlefield in Peter's direction.
So yeah, that's it. Peter's now the "bad guy."
