ACxOCU Ch 27. Unaverage Inception.
(Menthis slowly comes to and sees he's on a medical table.)
"Wha…where am I?"Asks Menthis groggily looking around.
"Hey bud." Says Stewie walking.
"What happened?" Menthis asked, looking around.
"Your brain's sick bud and me and Junior are going to go inside your dreams to see what's up." Replies Stewie.
*Like that movie Inception?" Asked Menthis.
"Well…yes I'm kinda happy I don't have to explain anything to you." Replies Stewie.
"That movie sucked." Remarks Menthis.
"Well…I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on that one." Replies Stewie.
"Wait, if this will be like Inception don't I have to be asleep why'd you let me wake up?" Menthis asks curiously.
"Oh that's the magical thing I can get you to go back to sleep any time I want no anesthetic needed using my magical dream stick." Replies Stewie.
"What the hell is a magical dream stick?" Asked Menthis.
"Oh it's nothing but just a." Begins Stewie but he suddenly pulls out a baton and hits Menthis on the head with it knocking him out, "God that felt good especially since he looks like his asshole brother."
"What did I say about mentioning him, especially around people?" Asks Junior walking in.
"Oh there's no reason to worry he's completely out." Replies Stewie.
"You said that last time too, how sure are you this time?" Junior asks.
Stewie turns around seeing a unconscious Menthis now slumped over fall off the table, "Pretty damn sure." He says, " He may have a concussion later but that's easier to cure than his twisted ass dreams."
"Are you ready to do this?" Asks Junior picking up Menthis and putting him back on the table.
"Yep programming the machine now." Replies Stewie pressing buttons on the keypad then he takes out the helmets for the machine giving one to Junior and they put them on then Stewie flips a switch sending them inside.
Inside Menthis's dreams.
(They appear in a pitch black room with a dim light in the center area that illuminates a figure who just stands there singing let you down by NF sadly.)
Feels like we're on the edge right now...
I wish that I could say I'm proud...
(They get closer and see it's Menthis who's singing Stewie then puts his hand out to signal Junior to stop walking.)
I'm sorry that I let you down..
I let you down...
(Suddenly fog from nowhere starts to circle Menthis and begin to shape into figureless creatures that begin to swirl around Menthis.)
All these voices in my head get loud!
I wish that I could shut them out...
I'm sorry that I let you down..
Let you down...
(Suddenly TV screens flicker on around Menthis and show scenes from Menthis's past but the other figure in the videos is unrecognizable.)
Yeah, I guess I'm a disappointment!
Doing everything I can.
I don't wanna make you disappointed!
It's annoying...
"This is so fucked up." Says Stewie to Junior as they watch the scenes on the TVs.
I just wanna make you feel like everything I ever did.
Was never tryna make an issue for you!
But I guess the more you thought about everything.
You were never even wrong in the first place, right?
"Stay vigilant." Says Junior to Stewie.
Yeah, I'ma just ignore you, walking towards you!
With my head down, lookin' at the ground, I'm embarrassed for you!
Paranoia, what did I do wrong this time? That's brothers for you...
(The singing Menthis begins to cry.)
Very loyal? Shoulda had my back but you put a knife in it...
My hands are full, what else should I carry for you?
I cared for you, but...
(The TVs then cut out and the fog begins swirling around Menthis faster.)
Feels like we're on the edge right now..
I wish that I could say I'm proud...
I'm sorry that I let you down...
Let you down!
(The fog swarms around Menthis and he dissapears.)
"That was something." Says Stewie.
(Suddenly everything gets brighter and they find themselves in front of an orphanage.)
"Huh this must be something of significance let's go in." Says Stewie and they both head into the building.
(In the building they head straight into a bedroom area, seeing a young Menthis playing in the corner by himself when a group of kids come up and the kid in the center kicks over the toy blocks Menthis was playing with and the other boy shoves Menthis back to the ground when he gets up. Another boy who they can't fully recognize comes in after and helps Menthis up after the kids leave he then proceeds to help Menthis rebuild his blocks.)
(The scenery flashes and now they find themselves in the dining area now. They then see a young Menthis sitting at the corner of the room eating breakfast by himself, when the same kids from earlier walk in and proceed to harass Menthis and throw his food on the ground then laugh and walk away almost instantly the unrecognizable boy comes up and shares his food with Menthis.)
"I'm seeing a pattern here that little boy might be Mathi-" Begins Stewie.
"Don't say it here, it's too dangerous here to do that." Says Junior cutting him off.
"I'm still not sure what's so dangerous about a name." Replies Stewie.
"A name is believed to hold power right now that boy is an irregularity ; they don't exist anymore on our plane." Explains Junior " But here is like a lane between real and not real so saying their name especially in his dreams will be as if you are reminding him they existed."
"Look at you with the know-how." Replies Stewie with a sly smile.
"Yeah, yeah but I think we have an idea of what could be going on here." Says Junior.
"Sure why not?" Replies Stewie already ready to go.
"Fine, we'll try to figure out more if we can later." Says Junior arms crossed.
(They both wake up in the real world.)
