The Chronicles of Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl
A Simpsons Fanfiction Story by Cartoonfan88
3. Arrival
The ride in the van took longer than Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl had expected it to be. So much so, they had already begun to envision possible outcomes of their arrival. Stretch Dude envisioned that he would already find nerds and teachers that he could play pranks on, while Clobber Girl envisioned that she would already meet girls her age and make friends who had the same interests, and had their own superpowers.
After what seemed like a eternity, the van came to a stop, and our heroes stepped out of the car to get their first glimpses of their new home. Their expectations were blown away when they saw the school, a large, medieval-fashioned castle. Already, Stretch Dude and planned pranks involving the castles length and height, while Clobber Girl had already planned out map in her mind of the school.
The two men led the duo to the castle doors, and after opened it for them, turned around and left them, expecting them to walk in by themselves. They both hesitated for a while, until Stretch Dude said "What's the matter sis? You afraid?" "Not afraid, just nervous, I mean, what if we came in and all of the school began to descend on us? We have no knowledge of their attack strategies" said Clobber Girl, in a intelligent, but nervous kind of way.
Clobber Girl took a deep breath, and said to Stretch Dude "Only one way out of this scenario" and began to enter the castle, Stretch Dude immediately followed. As they both entered the castle, they noticed that it was a lot more advanced than the exterior. Gone was the medieval look in favor of a lot more hi-tech, advanced look.
The second they entered the castle, a melody sounded, and they a number of students entering the lobby. They were all wearing the same clothes (grey from top to bottom), all had the same style of haircut (short and flat) and all had the same, mindless stare on their faces. All this made the duo feel very uncomfortable, as the kids who looked at them gave them negative stares and silent words of disapproval.
"Are you Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl?" asked a girl. The duo turned around to face the person asking the question. She looked 15 years old, and didn't wear the same clothes that the other students were wearing; in fact, she was wearing the same kind of clothes that you would normally see on a average 20 year old, Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl both nodded in reply.
"Well, that's a relief, at least y'all looking safe and sound" she said, adding a laugh. Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl looked at each other in confusion, "I'm sorry, and you are?" said Clobber Girl. "Ah name, well, my name is Emiliana Toresco a.k.a Toros" replied Emiliana. "I know your aliases, but what are your real names?"
"The spiked haired one is my brother Bart, and my name is Lisa" replied Clobber Girl. Bart didn't say a thing because he was looking at Emiliana, and he was completely stunned by her looks. "Oh sorry about that, it's actually my fault" said Emiliana, Clobber Girl looked confused, "You see, that's my power, any male that looks at me immediately becomes entranced, and I can do the same for a female…" she briefly opened and closed her eyes, and Bart was back to normal, he looked confused on where he was and what exactly he was doing.
"Sorry about that Bart, I was in a staring contest with a friend of mine and I kinda used my power to win, and forgot to change it" said Emiliana. "Don't worry about it, if I didn't feel a thing then it's ok" replied Bart. Emiliana smiled, and then said "Well then, I guess I better continue on then, I was sent down here to actually give you a tour of the place, so lets get moving before someone notices that we're wasting time". She immediately began to walk off and the duo followed her.
They progressed down a hallway while Emiliana began to mention facts like why Lanning built the school (to help develop super-powered individuals) and how the interior of the castle was made. As they progressed, two kids passed them and began to murmur things under their breath, but they clearly called them "Weak" and "Useless". Emiliana heard this, and to reassure the duo said "Don't worry about them, AC's always act like that to people".
Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl were confused at what she said, so she clarified it for them. "AC is short for Advent Children, a term coined by Lanning for the kids who were born with their powers, just ignore them, those kids have no personality and no emotions, all they want to do is just keep becoming more powerful". "So then what are we?" asked Stretch Dude. "Well, you can just call us, that is people like me and you, who weren't born with powers but received them later on in their lives, super-power individuals" replied Emiliana.
Later on, they came to a door where Emiliana said "Damn, that's right, I was supposed to introduce you to your group" Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl were confused. "Ok, you see, we're all bunched together in groups, that's for when we practice our powers and who you share a room with."
She knocked on the door and a male voice asked who it was, Emiliana replied "You know who it is, just open the door", the door opened after that. They all entered the room, and saw a male near the door trying to perfect a set of metallic tentacles and a female reading a book. Emiliana announced the two new arrivals, the two other people in the room looked at them and went back immediately at what they were doing before.
Emiliana took Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl to meet the other two members of their group. The boy was simply called Octo, namely because of the tentacles, which were additions to him via a comic-influenced Scientific experiment. The girl was named Mimic, who had the power to transform into anyone she desired, and have that person's special ability.
Emiliana showed the duo there rooms and said to them "Sorry, I forgot to mention that Octo and Mimic aren't very sociable." Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl apologized, and Emiliana continued "Also, I'm in charge of you guys, so don't get into any mischief, or it'll be my ass on the line". She then said good night, and turned away, leaving the duo alone.
Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl then turned to face each other. "So Lisa, are we home?" said Bart. Lisa paused for a moment, then replied "I'm…home" Stretch Dude smiled, at least the one person who he had shared some feelings for was ok. They each turned away from each other and went to bed, each thinking that their time here will affect them for the better…
