Hero Origins – Stick of Truth
I said I didn't want to write word for word the story, but I did exactly that with Cartman. Maybe I don't like to write him. Well, hope you like it:3

Douchebag P.O.V
After the fight with Clyde, Cartman call me, apparently, he wanted to show me something, we entered his tent and there were tons of junk, mostly props they probably use for the game
"Here it is, the reason why human and elves are in a never-ending war, The Stick of Truth" Cartman said
In front of us there was a common branch on a pedestal with a light bulb shining above it
"A few days ago, we took the Stick from the elves. Our kingdom was dying, but now it thrives. For whatever control the Stick, controls the universe"
Ok, let me see if I understand. The game is about human vs elves for the control of this branch, because the team who has the branch can make the rules. I must admit, is a good premise
"Don't gaze it too long. Its power is too much for mere mortals" Cartman said looking away
Ok…
"Now that you have seen the Stick, let's discuss your dues"
What?
"Being a member of my kingdom cost 9.95 for the first week, 4 dollars of which is tax deductible"
I have to pay you to play, what?
"ALARM, ALARM, ALARM!" Someone yelled from outside
"Someone has sounded the alarm" Cartman pointed the obvious
"ALARM, ALARM, ALARM!" Butters entered the tent screaming
"What's wrong?" Cartman asked
"The elves are attacking" Butters said
"Oh my god, defensives positions" Cartman yelled and ran outside
"You should come too Douchebag" Butters told me and ran outside too
I went outside and saw an army of kids in green costumes, Kenny and Scott were already battling and Clyde came to us
"Give us the stick humans" One of the elves said
"Fuck you, drow elves. Come and get it!" Cartman yell at them "Clyde guard the Stick of Truth while we defend the fortress"
"Aye, Aye" Clyde said and went inside the tent
"Aye, Aye? We are not playing pirates, Clyde" Cartman said "This is your chance to prove yourself Douchebag, hold of the assholes elves at all cost"
I don't like Cartman bossing me around, but I want to help the other kids. I look around and saw 3 elves on fancier costumes that were more likely to be their generals, Kenny was fighting one near the entrance and Butters was fighting another on the other side of the yard, Scott was fighting the last one near the house but was struggling to keep up
I run to help Scott who was about to be taken out by the elf, I hit the elf on his side making him move away from Scott
"Thanks, New Kid" Scott told me
I nod and help him get back up. The elf looked was a warrior with the same weapons as Clyde, so I knew what I need to do, I slashed continuously his shield to break his balance, but he stayed strong, he tackled me back and attacked me with his sword, I managed to block it at the last second with my own, the elf was stronger that I though, it was silly to think the same strategy would work on everyone. The elf was on the offensive while I could only defend myself, I couldn't think of anything as he keep attacking me, that was until Scott launch a surprise attack and managed to make the elf drop his shield, the elf shocked by this tried to move back, but I managed to give him the finishing blow knocking him down
"That was rough, wasn't it?" Scott said panting
It was, I thought I was going to help Scott, but he ended saving me
"I need to rest and eat something. You go and help the others" Scott said as he sat on the snow
I went to help Butters who was fighting the elf general and another elf
"Hey New Kid, I can use a little help" Butter said as he saw me
The general had a long spear that he used to keep Butters at bay, while the other attacked with a bow, Butters only had his hammer, so he had no choice to be on the defense
"I can beat the one with the spear, but every time I see an opening the other shoot at me. I tried to make him waste his arrows, but because we are running in circles, he just picks them back up" Butter said
I nodded, this was a tough fight for a single person, but now that we are together, we can beat them. We run to opposites sides with Butters running near the spear guy to draw him to him, as soon as they started fighting the archer elf prepared to shoot, but before that I throw a snowball at him to distract him. I started to attack the lone archer, the general heard us and try to come help him and that opening was all Butters needed to beat him up, I managed to finish with the archer quickly, in close range he didn't stand a chance
"You are good Douche" Butters told me
I know how to defend myself, I'm more impressed that a nice-looking boy, like Butters, is as strong
"We are almost done, let's go help Ken" Butters said
We run towards the other side of the "kingdom" were Kenny was battling the last general on his own, we ready our weapons when suddenly…
"Retreat, Retreat!" The general yelled
"What?" Butters said as the elves started to run away
We stand still not knowing what happened. It wasn't a lose fight for the elves, all the people on our team was tired and they could easily sweep us. We reach Kenny who was confused as us and Scott join us soon after
"Take that assholes elves! Better luck next time!" Cartman yelled taunting the other kids
"Emm…" We heard someone from behind as Cartman continued
It was Clyde getting out of the then, he had a lot of bruises and looked tired… Oh no, don't tell me…
Clyde got near us "It's gone"
"Huh?" Cartman stopped
"The Stick of Truth, the elves got it" Clyde said
"THAT WAS YOUR ONE GOD DAMMED JOB, TO GUARD THE STICK OF FUCKING TRUTH!" Cartman yelled venomously
Clyde was terrified, while everyone else took a step back
"Clyde… you are hereby, BANISH FROM SPACE AND TIME!" Cartman yelled at Clyde
"What? You can't do that" Clyde said
"Yes, I can, I'm the Wizard King and I do whatever I want" Cartman said
"I'm your only warrior, Butters can't fight on the front lines alone" Clyde tried to reason
"You WERE our only warrior" Cartman said looking at me
Oh shit…
"You are replacing me with the New Kid!" Clyde said
"His name is Douchebag and you shall address him like that" Cartman said snickering
Clyde look at me full of rage
"Fine!" Clyde yelled and took of his helmet and threw it at me "Take it! I don't need it anymore!" Clyde yelled and leave
Before leaving Clyde look at me one more time, he was crying. I didn't want this to happen, he didn't deserve that. Yes, they took the branch, but it looks like Clyde fight to the bitter end to defend it. This isn't his fault, if it was someone fault it should be Cartman's, he didn't do anything through the entire invasion
Cartman pick up Clyde's helmet and hold it in front of me "Here Douchebag, take this helmet as welcome to our kingdom"
I was furious. How dare he take that. I was about to hit him, but Kenny stopped me, I looked at him and he just shook his head. Even without words I know what he was saying. I wasn't going to beat Cartman…
I took the helmet and put it on
"It looks good on you" Cartman said and I just growl at him "But we don't have time for this, we need to recover the Stick of Truth, we'll have to assembly our entire army to do it"
"But our three best men haven't reported for duty" Butter said
"The new kid can take care of that" Cartman said "Douchebag, I want you to go through the neighborhood and find our three greatest allies, Token, Tweek and Craig"
I don't know who those are
Cartman gave me three letters "Give this to them and they'll know what to do. Now go my warrior"
I look at the letter not knowing what to do. I don't know if I want to keep playing this…
"Butters go with him" Cartman said
"Alright" Butters answered "Let's go Douchebag"
We leave the kingdom with Butters leading the way
"We should go with Tweek first" Butters said as we walk "He'll be the easiest to talk"
I just follow Butters as I look at the floor depressed
"Then we should go to Token, I don't like his guard but maybe we won't meet him"
Mmm… This is why I don't like to make friends…
"And on the way back we can go to Craig's, what do you say?"
All is going to end the same, there is no reason to try…
"Douche…?"
I bump into Butters, I didn't realize he stopped
"Are you ok?"
What?
"You are crying"
I am? I touch my face and there were tears. I look at Butters and he had a worried look
"Are you feeling guilty of what happened to Clyde?"
I looked away and nod
Butters hugged me "Don't be, that was in no way your fault, they got us, no one expected them to sneak for the stick"
I took off Clyde helmet and watch it closely. I don't think he would forgive me
"Also, Clyde is a very nice guy, he won't hold a grudge against you"
"You think so…?" I say with a low and broken voice
"I'm sure" Butters said and grab the helmet and put it back on my head "But first we need to get back the stick and then we can talk Cartman into letting Clyde comeback, and then you can return that helmet back to him, right?" He said smiling
I nod and clean my tears
Butters giggle "You have a very cute voice"
I TALKED!? Holy shit, I did talk… Why? I haven't spoken in years… I look back at Butters smiling. I close my eyes and remember everyone back at the kingdom, Clyde, Scott, Kenny… Maybe… Maybe things will end differently this time
"Are you ready to keep going?" Butters said and I answered with a smile "Great" Butters smile too
End of chapter 2
So, I'm in my room, alone, writing fanfiction, at new year eve, while everyone of my family are outside eating tacos and drinking alcohol… I'm happy here :3
I like how the story if going, or how the characters are ending up. Writing a prequel is harder than it looks
Well, as always, hope you like and see you next time :3
