Well folks, here's chapter six. Enjoy! :)

Fair warning though, the dream scene gets pretty disturbing. You have been warned!

(Btw sorry this was on a hiatus! I was just kinda busy and procrastinating on it.)

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

At the moment, it was 5:50 AM in the morning.

Gumball was sleeping peacefully in bed, dreaming about him and his girlfriend. (like usual)

IN THE DREAM.

Gumball and Penny were walking in the park, while the sun shined down in a beautiful way.

"Oh over there's a good spot." Penny said, as she pointed over to the tree nearby, with the perfect shade.

Gumball was carrying a backpack, which held their lunch. He would've gone for a picnic basket, but there weren't any at home.

The two went up the small hill, and sat down in the short grass under the tree.

Gumball placed the backpack down as well, and pulled out their food.

The two then ate their sandwiches, talked, mostly stuff that always seemed heavenly in Gumball's dreams half the time.

Before Penny could react, Gumball pulled her into a kiss, while also dropping his half eaten sandwich onto the ground.

The kiss lasted for at least somewhat of a minute.

Gumball let go, stars now appearing in his eyes. "I love you.."

Penny smiled. "I love you too.."

They stared at each other lovingly (I think), as it felt like they were floating in space.

Gumball however began to frown, hearing faint romantic music in the distance starting to.. Distort..

"Gumball? Are you okay?" Penny asked, confused by his sudden reaction.

"Uh.. Do you hear that?..."

Gumball looked behind him, seeing it looked a little bit gloomier, unlike the sunny bright day he just saw five seconds ago.

"Penny?... What's going on?..."

As soon as he turned to face his girlfriend, he screamed.

Penny was now a dead corpse lying against the tree, a blank expression on her face.

"Oh my gosh no! Penny!"

Gumball was terrified, not knowing what the heck was going on.

Feeling something.. Warm.. He looked down, fear being pretty much the only thing on his mind.

Red blood was on the ground in a puddle. It was also covering him as well.

Shaking in fear, he looked over at the food they were just eating.

Blood covered the food as well, and meat was sticking out of the sandwiches. Human meat.

This was definitely not the scene he was just living.

Remembering the kiss, Gumball nearly gagged with disgust. He kissed a corpse.

"Wait.. D-Did I?..."

He looked down at his bloody hands again. Oh no.. I didn't...

"Oh my god! Is that Penny up there?!"

Gumball noticed the crowd down the hill, looks of horror on their faces, including anger.

Mr. Fitzgerald was part of the crowd, distraught and angry. "P-Penny..."

Gumball began to back away, but was soon kept in place by an unknown force.

He tried to move, but he couldn't. He was forced to watch the angry, horrified crowd come up the hill.

Mr. Fitzgerald held his dead daughter in his arms, very, very distraught.

However, glancing to the side, he was at the verge of erupting like a volcano in anger.

"YOU!"

The man grabbed Gumball by his sweater collar, nearly close to strangling him.

"I-I didn't do it I swear!" Gumball choked out, struggling to breathe.

With anger, Mr. Fitzgerald threw him to the ground. "LIAR! YOU KILLED HER!"

"I didn't!" Tears began streaming down Gumball's face, the unknown force still keeping him in place.

Mr. Fitzgerald looked over at his dead daughter with sorrow, and noticed the 'food' there as well.

"You're insane..." He muttered, anger clearly still in his voice.

Some people suddenly grabbed ahold onto Gumball by the arms, keeping him from running off.

The crowd then dragged him back down the hill, and towards what appeared to be a car.

One of the people opened the trunk wide open.

Gumball widened his eyes with fear, realizing he was going to get stuffed into that trunk.

He tried to escape, but the people forced him inside.

Before he was in the trunk, Gumball screamed bloody murder, well, ironically, as everything faded to black.

*real time*

Gumball quickly woke up, hitting his head on the top of the bunkbed.

He breathed in and out slowly, fear still present in his eyes like in the dream.

What the heck kind of dream was that?!

"Gumball are you okay?..."

Darwin was standing in his bowl, awoken by the sounds his brother was making.

Gumball sighed. "I'm fine.. It was just a nightmare..."

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"...Yeah... But it's kinda personal..."

"We could talk in the bathroom if you want.."

"I guess that's fine..."

The two quietly went to the bathroom, shutting the door behind them so they wouldn't wake anyone else up.

"Okay, so what happened in that nightmare?" Darwin asked.

"Well.. It started off normal.. I was eating lunch with Penny at the park... We kissed N' stuff... But things got weird after that.."

"How weird? Like, Penny had one antler or something?" Darwin raised an eyebrow with confusion.

"No. I mean, there was romantic-y music in the distance.. It.. Distorted.. And everything got gloomy.. But when I turned around to look at Penny she... She.."

It was hard to say that sentence to be honest. Gumball really couldn't imagine the thought of Penny being well, dead.

"She... Was dead. There was blood everywhere... And she had this blank look on her face.. I was covered in blood... Uh.. You don't wanna know what happened to the lunch.."

Darwin could probably imagine what happened to that. He nearly shuddered at the thought. "Then what happened?.."

"This crowd and Penny's dad was there.. Mr. Fitzgerald was really mad at me.. He called me insane.. And well, that crowd wouldn't let me go, and they stuffed me in a trunk.. I was screaming.. That's really it.." Gumball finished, still shaken up by that scene.

Darwin noticed tears beginning to fall down his brother's face, in which he quickly comforted him.

"Hey it's okay.. It was just a dream.."

"But what if it actually happens?... What am I gonna do?..."

"That won't happen.. If it does, then we'll figure a way out of it."

"Really?.."

"Yeah.."

The two quickly hugged, Gumball still crying.

"Don't worry.. I'm sure nobody'll know what happened to Tobias.." Darwin reassured, which made Gumball cry even more.

They went back to the bedroom, and climbed back into their beds.

"'Night Darwin."

"Goodnight Gumball."

However, Gumball turned to face the wall, tears still streaming down his face.

What broke his heart most, was that he was practically lying to his own brother.. Darwin didn't know about the others yet.. Heck, he didn't even know about the other timeline either.. And to be honest, Gumball really didn't want to see that look of betrayal his brother would probably have on his face.

To be honest, he hated this.

And that was, chapter six. Was it good? Bad? Let me know.

Also, I deeply apologize if any of you got disturbed by the dream segment. It was supposed to kind of.. Be a symbolization thing. I'll let you guess what that symbolized.

With all that now said, see you in the next chapter!

And don't forget to leave a review! I appreciate those! :)
