Hero Origins – Stick of Truth
Hi guys, I wanted to write this for a long time now and I'm finally bringing myself to do it. Is the story of Stick of Truth from the point of view of my new kid, this story will be a prequel of my other fic "A Hero in Need." SoT is a long game, so I'll go only for the main parts of the story and I won't write word for word what happen in the game, I'll do my own interpretation of it. Hope you like it :3

"That's right, I'm so happy"
"What about you? Are you excited too D…?"
"What's up?"
"He is asleep"
"It has been a long ride"
"Yes, but it's finally going to be over, or should I say a brand-new start"

New Kid P.O.V
A knock on a door made me wake up, I look around me and I don't recognize where I'm. I think hard and remember that we were in the middle of moving, I must have fall sleep. I hear the knock again follow by my mom voice
"Honey, are you dress?" She said
I check if I am and I'm dress, it would be weird if I wasn't
My parents enter the room "Hey kiddo, how do you like your new room?" My dad asks
I look around again and there's not much, but I think I can fix it good
"I'm glad that you like it" My mom said after I didn't answer
"Son… Do you remember why we came to this remote town in the mountains?" My dad asks
I do… I wish I didn't
"He doesn't remember" My mon whispers to my dad
"He doesn't remember at all" My dad whispers too
I can hear them. There is no way I could forget…
"Well hon, we are finally here, we want you to have tons of friends and that you can grow like a happy kid" Mom said
"So, go out and have an adventure son" My dad said and give me 2 dollars "In case you need it"
We stay like that for a moment, my parents waiting for me to reply
"Yes, we love you too" My dad said sarcastically and leave my room
Mom kiss me on my forehead and before leaving said "Have fun hon"
I put my money on pants and grab my cellphone. I might as well go out; dad will get mad at me if I don't. I got off my room and down the stairs and before going out mom waves at me goodbye while dad reads the newspaper
I step outside and the cold air hits me making me shiver. I hate cold, I'm only wearing a blue tank top, jeans and sneakers, we are at the end of summer and it feels like we are in the middle of winter, brrr…
"Help, help!" I hear nearby
I look around and in front of the neighbor's house two kids are fighting, one with a wooden sword dress like Peter Pan and the other with an actual hammer dress weirdly and with a tiara
"Someone, help!" The kid with the tiara yell
Looks like they are in some kind of game, I probably shouldn't get involve and I start walking away
"Aaahhhh!" I heard and look back
The kid with the tiara was on the floor while Peter Pan was hitting him strongly with his sword. It looks too real… I gasp as I saw the tiara kid bleed a little from the attack from the other. I run at them quickly and hit Peter Pan hard onto the snow
"What? Not fair" The Peter Pan kid said and ran away
I help the tiara kid stand up and he smile at me
"Thanks kid, I didn't know he had a health potion" He said
A what?
"I don't think I seen you before" The tiara kid said "Oh! You must be the new kid"
I suppose, I moved here a few hours ago. I point to his wound in his head
"This?" He says "Don't worry, I'm ok, I had worse. Thank you for saving me" He says but still worries me "The grand wizard has been waiting for your arrival, he lives in the green house, over there" He said pointing to the house next to this one
The grand wizard? It must be something about their game, but he has been waiting for me? Why?
"He told me to take you there as soon as you arrive, do you want to come?" He said
I don't know. If I go, they'll probably get me into their game and it looks like they are very physical about it… I really don't want to play a game like that. I'm about to tell him no but he looks at me with puppy eyes… God dammit, he is too cute, I can't say no to someone like him…
I nod and he smiles "Great, follow me" He says and grab my hand and walks me to the other house "My name is Butters, well my name is actually Leopold, but I like Butters better, and I'm a paladin, so I'm Butters the Merciful. I live in this house and that means we are neighbors" He says
So, Butters… I can see why they call him like that, he is so sweet that you can make candies of him
"Where did you live before coming here?" He asks and wait a little after I don't answer "Do you like Colorado?" He asks and wait "Looks like you don't talk a lot, don't worry I can talk for both of us" He said smiling
We arrive at the wizard's house and Butters rings the doorbell
"Well, here we are. Hey new kid, I was wondering if you… want to be friends…" Butters said nervously "I don't have many friends, so I was wondering if you want to…"
Butters suddenly seems very small. He looks like a super sweet kid; I wonder why he says he doesn't have friends; I think he'll be one of the popular kids. I don't have a reason to say no
I nod and Butters face lit "You mean it?" He asks and I nod again "Thanks, I promise to be a good friend, if you need anything just talk to me, ok?"
He looks happy and I'm happy too, I glad Butters was the first person I meet in town
The door finally opens, and I see a kid morbidly obese in colorful robes at the other side and the only thing I can think of is… I love his hat
"All hail the grand wizard" Butters yell
"So, you are the new kid" The wizard says "Your arrival was foretold by Coldwell Banker. I am the wizard king. But the time to talk is not nigh. Let me show you my kingdom"
The wizard walked into his house signaling me to follow. That looked so scripted, I wonder how many times he practiced it
"His name is Eric Cartman, everyone calls him by his last name… sometimes he is nice" Butters said after the wizard was out of sight
Sometimes?
"Hey, what are you two waiting for? Come on!" Cartman yell at us
"We should go" Butters said and got in
I walk through Cartman's house, I wave at his mom only to get scold by Cartman telling me that she is not part of the game. We reach his backyard, it was decorated like a medieval kingdom, there were 3 more kids there, a kid with a helmet in front of a trash can filled with makeshift weapons, Butters tell me his name is Clyde, another kid inside of a pen with a cat, Cartman say his name is Scott Malkinson and he has the power of diabetes, whatever that is, and finally a girl in a Zelda costume from Twilight Princess, who apparently is a guy, his name is Kenny and I can't understand what he says
"What do you thi…?" Bitters tried to say
"Shut up Butters" Cartman interrupted him "So new kid, before you can play with us, you need to select a class"
I still don't understand what this game is about, but alright, what do you got?
"You can choose between a Warrior, Mage, Thief and Jew" Cartman said
Say what?
Butters give me four cards describing each class. The warrior is a tank with the ability to deal more damage the more defense he has, that's OP. The mage uses a wide variety of spells to inflict bad status on the opponent, that's good. The thief has high attack and deal more damage to bleeding targets, so bleeding is a big part of the game. The Jew is a mischievous class and only bad people play it… What? Who wrote this?
I don't want to make other kids bleed, the bad status sound fishy and I'm not Jew, so I think we have a winner. I give 3 cards back to Butters and give the warrior card to Cartman
"A warrior, huh?" Cartman says "Alright, now you must tell us thy name"
I remain silent as per usual, Cartman face grew annoyed as time pass
"Hey Eric" Butters whisper to him "I think he doesn't like to talk"
"What? What a weirdo" Cartman whisper back, but I can totally hear them "What? What did you say new kid?"
I didn't say shit
"You say your name was Douchebag" Cartman said
What?
"Are you sure you want to keep the name Douchebag?" Cartman said
Oh, I see…
"Very well. I, the Wizard King, welcome you, Douchebag the Warrior, to the Kingdom of Kupa Keep"
"Hurray" Butters happily yelled
This is going to be a long game…
Cartman give me the warrior basic costume and I walk back inside to change in to it, on my way back I see that Kenny is looking at a flower near the door, I grab it an give it to him, he giggles and he gives me a muffled thank you
"I see you manage to befriend the breathtaking Princess Kenny, good on you" Cartman says
"The warrior armor looks good on you" Butters says
"Yeah, whatever" Cartman says "Now that you have your armor you need a weapon, go buy one at our weapon shop"
I walk to Clyde, he is polishing his wooden sword
"Are you interested in a wares weary traveler?" He says "Or maybe do you want to hear some tips and rumors for a dollar?"
Tips and rumors are always good at the start of the game, so I pay for them
Clyde takes my money and say "Don't waste your money on tips and rumors"
Of course…
"Here is your sword, noble warrior" Clyde says giving me a short wooden sword "Is one dollar"
I give Clyde the rest of my money and Cartman walk to us
"Great, you have procured a weapon, now is time to teach you how to fight, now with the bravery of a noble knight, beat up Clyde" Cartman said
"What?" Clyde said
"Kick Clyde ass, Douchebag" Cartman said
"Why? I did everything you told me to" Clyde said
"I'm the king Clyde, and the king wishes to be amused. Go on Douchebag, kick his ass" Cartman said
We move into an open area of the yard, everyone in the Kingdom came to watch us fight. Clyde had his sword and a shield, while I only had my sword, Cartman explained how the combat works, but before he was over Clyde launched himself towards me, I blocked him with my sword and jump back
"What the fuck Clyde, I haven't finish talking" Cartman yelled
But he didn't listen, he thrusted his sword again at me and I evade it this time, I swing at Clyde but he blocked it with his shield, he pushed me back and used that opportunity tackle me and throw me to the ground
"Is over New Kid" Clyde said
He raised his sword to finish me off, I didn't want to lose, so I throw a snowball to his face, he defended with his shield and I use that time to get back up, I slam myself into his shield making Clyde lose balance, I hit his sword off his hand and then proceed to launch a flurry of slashed into his shield, he could only move back until he hit the fence, he fall down already losing any hope to win. I prepare to stab him and launch my attack, until I saw tears forming in Clyde's eyes and fail my attack on purpose, Clyde looked surprised at me
"OMG I think I see blood!" Cartman yelled "Yeah Douchebag, Clyde is your bitch. Haha"
The fight was over, Clyde was confused, everyone thought that my final attack actually hit Clyde. I lend my hand to Clyde to help him get up, then I move it to the side of his stomach so he could pretend that I hit him, Clyde realized that and went with it, because if he didn't do it Cartman would probably make us fight again. Everyone returned to his places and I when with Clyde to the weapon shop
"Why did you do it?" He asked me
I shrug my shoulders. I didn't want to hurt him and it looks like he didn't want to fight.
Clyde sigh and gave me back my money "Now we are even" He said
I smile at him and he look away
"Douche, if you finish talking with your whore, we have somethings to discuss" Cartman yell at me
I look at Cartman annoyed
"Just go already" Clyde said annoyed too
Sigh… this actually is going to be a long game…
