Authors Note: Hi there! I've decided thanks in part to a review that Kyle will be Bill while Stan will be Eddie. I feel that because of this, "Eddie" will be less of a hypochondriac but I'll need some other trait that defines him. I have a few ideas in mind, so shoot me a review! Reviews really help me because it lets me know that you are interested and what people prefer. This chapter will probably be pretty long since I'm trying to get an idea of how I'm going to write this. Hope you enjoy it! BTW they will be aged up to sixth-seventh grade age so relationships aren't as weird.
Kyle POV - 2020
They said it was an accident. That the strong winds of the storm and current of the flood ripped Ike's arm off...but I know better.
This is South Park, nothing is fucking normal here.
I should have just played with him, maybe he'd still be alive if I did. But Stan and I were playing the new FNAF game and I really couldn't be bothered. Ike was just my stupid little brother who wanted me to play pirates with him. I kept telling him no and he finally got so annoyed he went outside to play by himself. All they found of him was his little pirate's hat in a storm drain.
My phone beeped and I looked down
StantheMan: Hey Ky...you good? Havent seen u in school. Want me to come over? (Sent Now)
Me: No thx. Mom wont stop crying and dad gets drunk every night. Ill be back soon, after funeral (Sent now)
StantheMan: :'( Sorry dude. Ill let everyone know ur ok. See u at the funeral (Sent Now)
It's been like this for a few days now. Mom locked herself in Ike's room and won't come out except to make me and Dad dinner, if Dad even comes home. He's coping but not in the best way. Staying out all night at Skeeters getting wasted and stumbling home to cry on the couch is not what I'd called healthy. Neither of them have really said anything to me about it, only told me that he was...gone and that the funeral would be next week. To me, it's no funeral without the body.
I've pretty much holed myself up in my room. For a few days I just cried. He may not have been my brother in blood but we grew up together, and I was his big brother. I was supposed to protect him! Some big brother I was…
After my bout of crying, I've just been sitting on my bed, catching up with school work, thinking. A few people have tried to text me since the incident, I really haven't responded to anyone except Stan. He was there when I was told, he helped comfort me, held me while I cried, but eventually he had to go and figured he'd give us some space. Might as well read my messages now, I need to get over this. I start school again soon and Cartman will beat me up if he sees me crying. He and I aren't friends anymore, not after fifth grade. Now he bullies us (Kenny, Stan, and I) along with Clyde and a few other jerks.
KennyMcDick: Hey bro, heard what happnd. U need anything? Havent seen u in school (Sent 2 days ago)
KennyMcDick: Dropped work off at your front door. Hope everything's ok (Sent Today)
I took a deep breath and responded. Kenny and I have grown a lot closer, especially since he now wears clothes you can understand him in. He's also who I go to tell all my secrets. A lot of them have to do with Stan, and he can't keep a secret for shit anyways.
Me: Will be back soon. Thx for the work. C u at funeral (Sent now)
He immediately responded, as if he was waiting by his phone.
KennyMcDick: Np. BTW Token wanted to talk to u so I gave u his #. U good w that?
Me: It's fine.
I moved on to Butters. He kinda filled the spot Cartman left behind and he's been 10x the friend Cartman ever was. He has his problems, but don't we all? Stan's a closet alcoholic, my mom basically makes me live in a bubble (AN: Making Kyle the hypochondriac even though he represents Bill. It fits), Kenny is poor as shit and his parents are druggies, and Butters...well, he won't tell us, but Kenny says it has to do with his parents.
ButteredBread: Hey buddy, hope your feeling better :). I'm sooo sorry about what happened, and if u need anything u call me! (Sent 1 day ago)
Me: Thx Butters. C u at funeral. (Sent now)
ButteredBread: Yw! Token told me to tell u that we all need to talk bout something. Looked important. Heads up, think he's making a group chat. (Sent now)
Me: Ok (Sent now)
So apparently Token is looking for me? Haven't gotten any text from him yet so it must not be that important.
Kyle has been added to "We Need to Talk" Group Chat
Spoke too soon. Why the hell is he making a group chat and why does he need me?! I'm really not in the mood for this shit. I swear, if it's to help counsel Craig and Tweek I'm gonna flip.
Token has added SuperCraig, Tweekers, KennyMcDick, ButteredBread, and StantheMan to "We Need to Talk"
SuperCraig: Wtf.
Token: We need to talk. NOW! Also, Kyle, how r u?
Me: Dealing. What is this all 4?
Tweekers: Oh gosh, is someone else dead?! Is it Karen? Trish?! IS someone targeting little kids?!
KennyMcDick: Dude, wtf, no.
Token: Something like that…
KennyMcDick: I'm sorry...wha
Token: I saw...something. Idk guys, I think it has something to do with Ike.
StantheMan: What makes you think that?
ButteredBread: Oh gee guys we should really call the police! This sounds serious
Token: No, no police. This is abov them. Remeber what was found with Ike's hat?
I thought about it. Ike's...bloodied hat had been found by the storm drain and inside it was
Me: A deflated red balloon.
Token: Exactly! I was walking home from school today and stopped at CityWok. I was going to go in the bck way to see Ken but…
KennyMcDick: Token, I didn't see you there, wtf r u talkin about? Are you high?
Token: I'm serious guys! I didn't go inside because I saw burning hands coming from inside and and I reached out to help idk but Cartman and his shit for brain friends bumped up behind me on their bikes and I turned around for one second and then I looked back and the hands were gone and there was this red balloon floating there and
StantheMan: Woah, clam down
SuperCraig: *Calm
StantheMain: Not the time dude.
Token: Guys something is going on! I think Ike was murdered or something. Its not right.
