"Come on Gumball, time to go to bed." A tired Nicole said, taking her 5 year old son up the stairs.
Gumball pouted, looking disappointed. "Aw but I wasn't done yet! I gotta finish the battle of Shark Guy and Tiger Thing, the best most action packed adventure ever!"
"You can finish playing tomorrow sweetheart." Nicole opened the bedroom door, and led him to his bed. However, the younger cat wouldn't go to sleep.
"Can you read me a story?" He asked, stars appearing in his eyes. "I promise I'll go to bed!"
The older cat sighed, grabbing a storybook from one of the many messy parts of the room. "Alright, but you're going to sleep after this okay?" She watched, as little Gumball crawled into his covers quickly, looking at her with excitement. "I'm ready." He said with a grin, now in bed.
Nicole smiled, as she sat on the end of the small furniture, the book revealed to be Sleeping Beauty.
"Ooh is this the story with the huge awesome dragon?!"
"Yes sweetie, calm down." She opened the book and began reading, showing him the illustrations every so often as well. Gumball soon stopped her however, seeing the picture of the evil witch as the giant fire breathing dragon over the castle.
"Woah look at how big it is!"
"I see," Nicole said, smiling as Gumball went on about dragons, more or less how cool it would be if he could be one. However, he frowned, which she had noticed. "Gumball are you alright?"
He perked up again, sitting up in his bed. "Yep! But I just remembered that everybody hates dragons and thinks they're no good bad guys. Ooh what if I was something else cool? Like uhh.. That fire bird thing! What's it called again?"
"A phoenix?"
"Yeah a phoenox! They can go through fire and stuff and it's super cool too! And everybody likes them!"
"Do you want to hear the rest or?"
"Nah it's fine!" Gumball replied with a smile, as Nicole sighed, putting the book back where it had been.
"Goodnight sweetheart." She turned off the light and closed the door, leaving the younger cat to rest. However, he did the opposite.
Gumball became worried, the smile disappearing off his face. Quietly, he got out of bed, and picked up the storybook, glancing at the dragon picture again. The red fire in the drawing illuminated in the darkness, the image showing utter chaos. In sorrow, the cat looked down at his paw. "Am I supposed to be the big scary dragon monster?.."
He slowly moved a few fingers, seeing red light flicker out of them. He only had these weird occurrences for almost a week, each being out of control. The cat wanted to tell his parents about it, but he was almost afraid to. What if they assumed him like the dragon in the scenario? Like the people in the story, being afraid of him? Or angry?
Gumball shook the thoughts off, feeling tears prick his eyes. He soon crawled back into bed, leaving the storybook on the floor at the page.
It was better to keep it a secret.
It'll probably go away soon.. Then everything's gonna be okay again..
Present day...
Screams.
Dangerous magic.
Evil witch.
Not a good combination in anyone's eyes. People were panicking, some already on the ground unconscious from getting hit, pure chaos.
Elizabeth only laughed at this sight, as she continued her reign of terror upon the town. She soon noticed a rather familiar face return. "Oh, so you've come back."
"Well no dur I did!" Gumball was seen standing in front of the mist dragon, looking at her angrily. "You're hurting innocent people!"
"THEY ARE NOT INNOCENT!"
The witch struck magic at him, which he was quick to dodge.
"They are! What happened to you was YEARS ago, you have to accept that!"
"YOU DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!"
Magic struck harder, Gumball narrowly avoiding it. He sighed, tried to run closer to attack. This, appeared to be a mistake, as the dragon suddenly threw him into the side of a house, the alive people around him startled.
Elizabeth cackled, but was cut off by a rock hitting her in the body. "Agh! Who threw that?!"
"I did."
Nicole stood amongst the crowd of citizens, a look of fury.
"Oh I remember you, you're that horrid excuse for a mother of that brat aren't you?"
"Don't you dare call my son that." The older feline approached.
"Brave I see. But not for long." Elizabeth smiled, as she sent magic hurling towards the other.
Gumball crawled out of the him-sized hole in the wall, frightened seeing this. "Mom no don't!" He ran as fast as he could towards her, hands out as he tried to stop it from touching her. Thankfully, he was able to, wincing a little as it disappeared into his paws.
"Sweetheart I'm fine. Go to your siblings and let me handle this, please."
"Mom no, you don't understand! Its me that has to fight her!" He pulled her away quickly as more attacks were sent. "You'll get hurt!"
"Your safety is more important! I don't want her hurting you-"
Gumball's eyes widened, as he saw a huge wave of red magic hurled towards them. "MOM WATCH OUT!"
He tried to jump up and protect her, however, his efforts were futile. Fear was written onto his face, as Nicole fell over, shocked by this amount of power. The younger feline watched with horror, as she stopped moving. "..Mom?..."
Anais nearby had tears seen in her eyes, as did Darwin, though barely noticeable due to his ghost like figure at the moment.
"Well, what do you know?" Elizabeth and her dragon flew over Gumball, her with a heartless grin. "She was a horrid excuse. And so are you! So weak and pathetic! All you ever do is run and hide it seems! How do you expect to get anywhere at this rate?" She cackled, preparing her attack. "And to think I actually believed you would be the perfect tool to boost my magic."
The cat did not say a word, only staying still in his place, head titled to the ground.
"Well? Any last words before I destroy your measly little existence?"
"..You."
"..Wha?.." The witch raised an eyebrow, pausing her move. "That's pretty poor last words are you sure you don't want to pick something els-"
"You did this."
Gumball looked up, expression nothing but utter rage. Red magic soon swirled around him, eyes giving a faint red glow. Everyone watched with awe, as the magic soon grew, the feline lifted up into the air. "It was you that caused me all this."
The red mist formed and shifted behind him, as what looked like red flames appeared, transforming into a large bird like creature, with red glowing eyes.
"What is that?.." Darwin questioned, confused yet shocked by the situation.
"You really don't read anything." Anais face palmed, annoyed. "That's a phoenix. One of the most powerful creatures in fiction."
The mist phoenix creature screeched, as Gumball narrowed his eyes, getting closer to the witch. Suddenly, he flung an attack at her, catching Elizabeth off guard. "All you ever did was make me suffer.. And for what? To hurt innocent people that weren't even around? To get that plastic little trophy? You earned nothing for this."
Elizabeth scowled, as she made the mist dragon fight. "You don't understand you brat! All you people are is disgusting monsters that would watch innocent people die!"
"THAT'S LITERALLY YOU!"
He and the phoenix avoided her moves, being faster than the dragon. Gumball soon created waves of red magic and hurled them at her, the other having a difficult time fighting them. The feline and phoenix flew higher, and he punched her directly in the face.
"YOU'LL REGRET THAT!" She created a large fist and threw it down upon him, the cat surprised by this. However it didn't stop him.
The battle continued for a while, each throwing attacks at each other more deadly and dangerous than the last. Citizens had to back away and hide for their safety, Anais and Penny cautious while Darwin tried his best to keep away in order not to get dragged in.
After minutes of a tough fight, Elizabeth blasted red magic out of her hands, directly aiming at Gumball's face. He was quick to do the same, each throwing all they had. The wind around them was getting hectic, blowing around as they battled.
"I wish I never even THOUGHT of using you! You only push me down!" Elizabeth fought harder.
Gumball struggled, but tried to keep going. "You're evil what do you expect?! You're literally throwing lives in danger here!"
"Why did you even ask for my help in the first place if you knew I gave you those powers?! My plan was obvious!"
"Because you," He stumbled a bit, as his magic got closer. "gave them to me in the first place! You should've thought over your dumb plan you know!"
"You have no experience like me! You're weak!"
"YOU'RE LITERALLY 500!"
"YOU'RE JUST A CHILD!"
This made the feline angrier, their surge of magic getting at a dangerous level. He stretched his paws out farther, the phoenix screeching as it fought the dragon. "You're nothing but a monster! All you care about is yourself!"
"You cared about yourself too!" Elizabeth shouted. "You hid your magic for YEARS and for what? 'oh they're gonna kill me boo hooo'!"
"THAT'S NORMAL!" He shouted back. "I HAD A DUMB DETECTIVE GUY COME AFTER ME BECAUSE OF IT AND HE THREATENED MY FAMILY!"
Elizabeth for the first time in years felt.. Scared.. As her magic was draining. "What?"
"I'm not letting you hurt anyone anymore.." Gumball's powers only got stronger however, much to the witch's surprise. "And you won't be bothering me either!"
The cat threw an enormous amount of magic towards her, Elizabeth screaming as it was too much for her. Magic lit up all around her, blinding everyone but Gumball as the dragon exploded.
Everyone uncovered their eyes, shocked to see that the witch had become nothing but grey dust, the bits falling onto the street. They looked up at the cat, who in question was breathing heavily, clutching his chest as the phoenix calmly set him down onto the ground, before disappearing back inside of him.
He soon fell onto his knees however, looking horribly tired. Gumball tried standing back up, as his siblings and girlfriend were quick to help him. "I'm fine guys, don't worry.."
"Are you sure?.." Penny asked, as she helped him up. "You look really tired and worn out.."
"Yeah, I'm okay.." He stumbled slightly, as he walked over to Nicole and the other unconscious citizens, beginning to fix them back to normal. "Oh hey where's Darwin's body?.. I still gotta fix that.."
"Gumball I don't think you sho-"
"Just give it here.." He said, cutting off Anais. Reluctant, his sister gave him the goldfish's still slightly injured body, as he tried to concentrate.
Darwin coughed, as he was thankfully returned back into his body, though noticed that his eye hadn't returned back to normal. "..Um.. Dude?..."
"I dunno how to fix that.." The others grew alarmed, as the feline fell over unconscious.
"Gumball!"
They were quick to try and carry him, confused and worried about his health.
"What do we do? Is he.. Croaked?..." Fear was seen in Darwin's eyes.
"I don't know.. He could just be really tired.. I mean he kinda did just fought a power hungry witch so.." Anais raised an eyebrow, as a pair of arms picked Gumball up, but grew relieved. "Oh thank gosh mom's okay.."
"We'll have to wait and see." Nicole said, as she carried the younger feline, Darwin and Anais following her as Penny went to her own family to check their safety. "He's been through a lot, so I take it it's him just taking all his energy out."
"So we just wait until he wakes up?" Anais was uncertain of this, worry on her face.
"Unfortunately, yes. He needs rest."
The three made their way back home, each concerned for the sleeping Gumball.
