(Marsh Residents)
Stan played a game on his phone until he heard someone knocking at his window.
Stan turned his head and saw Tweek and Kyle looking into his room.
"Open the window," Kyle said.
Stan got off of the bed and opened his window. Kyle and Tweek both climbed in.
"Stan, where the heck have you been?" Kyle asked.
"Ugh! Yea, I thought we were all going to meet up at Butters's house an hour ago?" Tweek asked.
"I can't go to Butters party; my parents grounded me," Stan said.
"Not anymore."
Stan, Kyle, and Tweek turned their heads and saw Leslie standing in the doorway while she twirled her hair.
"What are you are talking about, Leslie?" Stan asked reluctantly.
"I convinced mom and dad to let you go to Butters party… you are still grounded, but at least you get to go out with your friends tonight."
Stan was stunned to hear this.
"T-thanks, Leslie," Stan replied.
Leslie smiled.
"You're Welcome…well, I gotta go. Have a good time, Stan."
"What was that all about?" Kyle asked.
"What do you mean?"
"There was this weird energy between you and Leslie. Has she been whispering commercials into your ear while you were sleeping? I was worried that she would be doing that when you said your parents adopted her."
"Ah, come on, Kyle. That's not fair. Leslie hasn't been acting like an ad since we freed her, Jason, and Gary from those clone tubes." Tweek said.
Kyle was hesitant to believe this.
"Stan, you agree with me about Leslie, right?" Kyle asked his best friend.
"I don't know what to think right now, Kyle. Let's get to Butters house before it gets Dark.
(Testaburgur Apartment)
Leslie rang the doorbell to the Testaburgur apartment.
Wendy's twin sister, Angelica, opened the door and looked curiously at the girl in front of her.
"Can I help you?" Angelica Testaburgur asked.
"Is Wendy home? I wanted to ask her some questions about my Brother, Stan." Leslie asked.
"I didn't know Stan had a sister. What's wrong with him?" Angelica then smiled as a thought came to her head.
"Does he want a real girlfriend instead of my stuck-up sister?"
Wendy then came down the stairs and pushed her Twin sister out of the way and out of sight.
"Sorry about my sister, Leslie. Come on in." Wendy said as she gestured for Leslie to follow her upstairs.
Once the girls reached Wendy's bedroom, wendy closed the door and sat down on her bed, and patted the spot next to her.
After Leslie sat down, she looked at some of the pictures in Wendy's room; some were wendy's with her family; some were of wendy's and her best friend, Bebe Stevens, and the rest were of Wendy's with her boyfriend, Stan.
One of the pictures, in particular, piqued Leslie's interest. It was of Stan, wendy, and the little dark-haired girl standing in front of a Burned down apartment building.
Wendy noticed Leslie starting at the picture and smiled.
"My parents took that picture a week before we all moved back to south park, and you came back to life." wendy said.
"Why did they take this picture?" Leslie asked.
"Two monsters were destroying our new town in Wyoming, and because of the destruction the two demons were causing, our building caught on fire. Angelica, my parents, and I got out quickly, but my younger sister Peggy got trapped in our apartment while we were escaping. After we got out, I told stan what had happened, and against everyone's advice, stan ran into the still Buring Building and got Peggy out of there before the building finally collapsed. My parents were so grateful for stan saving Peggy that they wanted to take a picture afterward so none of us would forget."
"I didn't know stan was so close to your family," Leslie said.
"He always has been. Stan and I have known each other since we were in diapers. I started developing feelings for him in preschool. Since our dads were friends in high school so our families had always hung out together, and this only made stan, and I grew closer as well as our families. He's been the son my parents had never but always wanted, and he's been like an older brother figure to my little sister, Peggy.…what did you want to talk about, Leslie?"
Leslie sighed.
"Wendy, based on what you've just told me, Stan sounds the perfect brother I always wanted, but ever since i moved in with him, he's been avoiding me, and he shuts me out whenever I try and get close to him."
Wendy noticed Leslie's face beginning to show signs that she was hiding something.
"There's more, isn't there?" wendy asked.
"Last night, I tried to comfort stan after a nightmare. At first, he just seemed a little annoyed, but then when I tried to get close to him and talk about how I saw him as my brother, he got so angry with me and kept shouting at me to get out of his room and how I would never be his sister."
Leslie then looked down again.
"The most hurtful thing he said about me was when he compared me to my former self."
Wendy put her hand on Leslie's shoulder.
"Im sorry, Leslie. I'll talk to stan about this; you don't deserve to be treated like that."
"No, please don't. I just got him to like me by convincing our parents to let him go to Butters party tonight. If you talk to him about it, then it'll undo all goodwill I have made with him. I just want to know if there is any reason why stan might be hostile towards me lately because it can't be because of the stuff I did as an ad. After all, if it were, then stan would never have freed me from the w.a.s.p cloning facilities; he would have just left me there."
Wendy then noticed Leslie beginning to smile.
"Ya know…when I found out that I was going to be adopted by Stan's parents, I was excited because I was going to be in the same family as the boy that saved me; I wanted to show how grateful I was to stan by being the best sister I could to him. I just wish I knew what I was doing wrong."
"You're not doing anything wrong, Leslie. Stan is the love of my life, but he's not perfect. Like 90% of men, he can be a self-absorbed asshole…but at the same time, it's not entirely his fault that he's been treating you so poorly. Before you got adopted by stan's parents, they had another daughter named Shelly. Did stan's parents tell you anything about her?"
"Not much; they're still moving her stuff into the attic. All I do know is that she's locked up in a mental institution. They didn't tell me why, though."
Wendy sighed, then got off her bed and got out a photo of stan and handed it to Leslie.
Leslie's eyes opened wide as she saw the stan in the picture who had an enlarged black eye and multiple bruises all over his face and body.
"Wh-what happened to him?!"
Leslie noticed how angry Wendy looked after she asked that question.
"Shelly happened." wendy said with powerful anger in her voice. "She would abuse stan for the smallest thing. She had gotten away with it for years."
"But if that happened, then how come our parents didn't do anything about it?"
"As shitty a person as Shelley was, one thing she was good at was being a master manipulator plus, as you probably figured, randy and Sharon aren't the smartest people around. I wanted to do something about it, and I almost did once, but Shelly caught me in the act and stopped me. She said if I ever tried doing anything like that again, she would beat up not only me but my sisters too, and I hate to admit it, but I was genuinely scared of her after that, and I stayed that way for a while. Then it looked like things had changed; Shelly had been calm and less aggressive than it looked like she and Stan were finally getting along, and I was happy for him. But soon after, stan and his family moved to that stupid marijuana farm; Shelly was beginning to transform back into her old self. Stan came to visit me one day, and when I saw him all beaten up and bruised, i knew there was only one person who could have done that to stan. I wasn't just going to sit back and let the only boy and I had ever loved get beaten up and treated like shit again by his abusive sister and didn't care what she would do to me, i took a picture of Stan well, I wasn't looking then sent a copy to the police. A few days later, they arrested Shelly, and she was sent away to a Psychiatric hospital."
"I-i had no idea. No wonder he's been so aggressive towards me… it's all because of her!"
"Well, let's just be glad that she's locked away and will probably die in that place," Wendy said as she took the picture back and put it away.
"So what do you think I should do to get stan on my good side?"
"It sounds like you've already begun building a bridge; that's good. I'm meeting up with him tonight at Butters party, so I'll try to put some ideas in his head about you and him bonding…as Brother and sister, of course. If you try to take stan away from me, Leslie, I will kill you and make it look like an accident."
"Relax, Wendy. My heart belongs to Craig Tucker and no one else. Anyway, thanks for giving me some perspective." Leslie said.
"No problem, Leslie."
As Leslie was leaving the room, she stopped in place and looked back at wendy.
"One last thing, do you know the name of the hospital that Shelly is residing in?"
(Stotch Residents)
Tweek, Stan, Kyle, Butters, and Cartman watched an old science fiction movie from the 1950s.
"Guh, this movie is so stupid; why did you pick this Butters?!" Cartman said.
"Back off, Butt for Brains! Butters wanted to have a sleepover and watch a movie of his choosing before his birthday tomorrow night! That's what he wanted to do, and that is what we are going to do!" Kyle said in his usual irritated voice.
"Thanks, Kyle. I sure wish Lizzie could have come too; that way, the whole gang could be here." Butters said.
"She wanted to come, but her moms took her with them to visit her grandma in Bismarck," Kyle replied.
Tweek was about to say something but stopped himself when he felt his phone vibrate.
He looked on his phone and saw that he had gotten a text from his girlfriend, Millie Larsen; it read: Whatcha up too, Boo?
Tweek smiled then began to text back: Nuttin, just hanging with the guys, you?
After a few seconds, Tweek got another text from Millie, which read: Look outside.
"You ok, Tweek?" Stan asked his friend.
"Ya, I just got this weird text from Millie. She wants us to look outside." Tweek replied.
Butters smiled.
"Oh good there here. Hey Eric, could you help me get a family-size bag of Cheezy puffs out of the basement?" Butters asked.
Without answering, Eric ran to the basement door and opened it.
"Butters, you Dumbass! I can't see the bag anywhere down there." while Eric was saying this, Butters got behind him and kicked him down into the caller, then locked the door behind him.
"Hey, Let me out!" Eric shouted from behind the locked door.
"O don't worry, Eric, I will...tomorrow morning." Butters then took out a small remote and pressed the central button, after which eric's constant banging and yelling couldn't be heard.
"Wow, How did you get him to shut up, Butters?" Kyle asked.
"My parents installed soundproof systems in all the rooms of our house. Now we can enjoy time with our ladies while Eric is stuck in the basement with my dad's smelly laundry."
"Wait, why did you invite him at all if you were just going to throw him in the basement?" Tweek asked.
Butters smiled evilly.
"Because I want this night to be special, and I just knew it wouldn't be unless I knew for a fact Eric would be stuck down there knowing we were having a good time while he's down there all alone."
"Butters, that's pure evil. I'm impressed." Kyle said.
"Thank you, Kyle. Now, if you guys would be so kind as to let our ladies into my abode."
"But what if your parents wake up and see all our girlfriends here?" Stan asked.
"Not to worry, before you guys came here, I put some Tylenol pm in their food. They'll be asleep for hours."
Kyle then opened the door, and the first to come in was his girlfriend, Bebe Stevens, Who flung herself into Kyle's arms. Next came Wendy Testaburger, Millie Larsen, and Lola.
Lola ran over to her boyfriend and kissed him lovingly.
"Happy pre-Birthday, Tiger."
Butters blushed as his girlfriend said this to him.
"So what are we waiting for? Let's party!" Bebe said.
"Righto," Butters said as he turned on his parent's stereo and party songs began to play.
Everyone else began to dance with their romantic partner. As stan danced, he unknowingly showed off his superior dance moves by taking wendy by the hand, then lifted her and spun her around in the air two times before catching her and safely putting her back into her feet.
"Wow, Dude. I didn't know you could dance like that." Kyle said.
Wendy, who was still a little dizzy then said: It's my Booboo Bear's unique secret.
Stan then caught wendy before she fell over while everyone else continues to dance.
Stan laid wendy on the couch just as she was getting her senses back.
"You ok, Babe?" Stan asked.
"Ya, im ok."
Wendy tried to get up. She would have fallen over if not for stan catching her again.
"Why don't you rest here for just a little while," Stan suggested.
Wendy noded then rested her head on Stan's shoulder.
"So, how's Leslie?" Wendy asked.
"She's okay. She just moved into Shelly's old room."
"So what kind of sibling bonding have you've been up to? Did Leslie paint your nails while you were sleeping? That's something I always wanted to do if I had a brother."
"To be honest, I have mostly been avoiding Leslie whenever I can," Stan said while looking away from his girlfriend.
Wendy narrowed her eyes at stan.
"Stanley Tiberius Marsh, that's like you at all."
"Wendy, don't say my middle name in front of everyone else."
Wendy ignored what stan had said and continued admonishing her boyfriend.
"Stan, you shouldn't make Leslie feel like she's unwanted, not after all the horrible things she's been through. Do you know she came to my family's apartment earlier today to talk about your treatment of her?"
" She did what?!"
"Yes, she did. She told me that all she wanted from you was the sibling bond she had always dreamed of."
Wendy noticed the look of shame on stan's face then pulled him closer to her.
"But I also told her that it's not all your fault, that there were other reasons for why you were treating her that way."
"What do you mean?"
"Stan, it's evident that you're not entirely over the abuse shelly put you through, and I think those unresolved feelings of pain you have inside of you may be why you've been so hostile towards Leslie Lately."
Stan looked away from wendy for a moment. Wendy put her hand on his cheek and turned his head back.
"Don't feel bad, Bobo Bear. Now that we've identified the problem, we can fix it."
Stan smiled back at his girlfriend.
"Why do you stay with me, wendy? You're so smart and forgiving while I'm just some dummy who keeps-"
Wendy put her index finger against stan's lips.
"Stan, only an idiot like you wouldn't realize how special a person you are. Stan, I love you because I know even though you can be a self-absorbed asshole at times, your still overall kind, brave, caring, sweet, and just an all-around great guy who I would never want to live without."
Stan noticed wendy began to Tear up, so he pulled her into a hug which she returned immediately.
"I love you, stan," Wendy said as she snuggled up against stan.
"Please don't cry, wendy. I love you too. Listen, im sorry I was a dick to Leslie; I'll be a better brother to her…and a better boyfriend. I know I haven't been spending as much time with you as much as I should be."
Stan couldn't see wendy's face because she was resting her head on his right shoulder, but if he could, he would have seen her smiling evilly as he said this. Meanwhile, the other couples were having their romantic moments. Bebe pulled Kyle into a kiss; Millie and Tweek held each other while slow dancing while Butters and Lola were having their moment in Butters's bedroom.
(Butters bedroom)
Lola covered her boyfriend's eyes.
"C'mon, Lola, let me see what you've set up," Butters said.
"Oh, all right."
Lola took away her hands and showed Butters a small blue box on his bed.
Butters opened the box and found a bronze band with a blue stone at its center.
"Lola, it's beautiful. What's this for?" Butters asked as he put the ring on.
"It's your birthday gift, silly.
I wanted to get you something special for your birthday; I saw you admiring that ring in the jewelry store a few weeks ago, so I saved it up so I could get it for you."
"Lola, you didn't have to do that."
"Yes, I did. Butters, your the nicest guy I have ever dated. You treat me like an actual person instead of just some piece of arm candy."
"Oh, Lola, I-"
Lola's kiss-cut off Butters before he could finish his reply.
(The Basement)
Cartman sat at the top of the Basement, eating from a spear bag of cheese puffs.
As he grabbed another handful of the snack food in his hands, he noticed a large portal open at the bottom of the staircase.
Vapula flew out and started the fat boy in the eyes.
"Aw shit!"
Before Eric could even get up, Vapula grabbed him then broke his neck!
