Hello! And here is good ol' Chapter 2!
Marcie and Jordan Williams are owned by me. I do not own Tawog whatsoever. Only those OCs.
Warning this chapter contains some swear words, fight scene, and blood.
If you don't like this kind of thing, maybe this isn't the chapter for you..
With that said, Onto the chapter!
It was eight o'clock in the morning.
Marcie sat in the Kitchen, as she drank her cup of coffee.
Another day..
She went to the living room and sat on the couch, as she watched the morning news.
Gumball was sleeping on the right side of the couch, still wearing his normal clothes.
Hearing the TV, he woke up sleepily, and let out a yawn.
"Good morning." Marcie greeted.
Gumball groaned and slept on the other side.
"Not much of a morning person huh?" Marcie let out a little laugh.
After a few minutes, he finally got up, and let out another yawn.
"Good morning." Marcie greeted again.
"I'm pretty sure I heard you the first time." He said, a little annoyed.
Marcie let out another laugh, and got off the couch.
"Are you hungry? I can make some pancakes if you want."
"Eh, ok."
Gumball shrugged a little, showing he was still a little tired.
Marcie went to the Kitchen, and began making the promised pancakes.
Gumball sat upright, and began changing the channel on the TV, looking for something to watch.
Marcie's phone rang on the coffee table, which was droning out the cartoon Gumball was watching.
Annoyed, he looked over at the Kitchen, but Marcie was quite busy at the moment.
He then picked it up and answered it.
"Yes?.."
"Marcie?"
Recognizing the voice from yesterday, he answered quietly.
"Um.. Marcie can't come to the phone right now.. She's kind of busy.."
"Wait who is this?"
"A friend?..."
He heard a sigh from the other end.
"Can you tell her I'll be at the house in an hour?"
"Ok.."
"Thanks."
Gumball hung up, and put it back on the table.
Marcie came back, with a plate of three pancakes in her hand.
"Did you answer my phone?.." She asked.
Gumball quietly nodded, hoping that he wasn't in trouble.
"Well.. Who was it?.."
"Your brother.. He told me to tell you he's coming in an hour.." He replied.
"Did he get suspicious?"
He shook his head.
"No. I told him I was just one of your friends."
Marcie sighed in relief.
"Ok then. Well here's the pancakes."
She gave him the plate and sat back down on the couch.
"So what are you watching?" She asked.
"Just cartoons." Gumball said, as he took a bite of the food.
"Coming up next, The Amazing World Of Gumball!"
His ears went up, as he heard what the announcer said.
Marcie looked at the TV in worry.
Crap! Uh..
"Marcie?.."
Responding to her name, she quietly turned to look at him.
"Yes?..."
"Was that my name they just said?.. And.. Why am I on there?..."
She sighed, knowing she would have to explain.
"I should of.. Said this earlier... But..."
Marcie took a deep breath, preparing for what to say.
"That's... Your show..."
Gumball's ears went back down, as he looked at her with confusion and worry on his face.
"What... What are you talking about?..."
Marcie sighed again, knowing again that he would not really understand.
"You see... You're... Not really... How should I say this.."
She turned to the TV, as she watched the intro play.
Marcie looked back at him, and finally got the courage to speak.
"You're.. You're a cartoon character.." She said, finally getting the words out.
Gumball continued to look at her with confusion and worry.
"But.. I don't understand.. You can see me..."
Marcie looked down. She wasn't prepared for that sentence.
"Are.. Are you saying I'm not real?..."
She noticed tears beginning to build up in his eyes.
"Gumball?.. How exactly did you get here?.. Can you tell me?.."
He sighed, and finally revealed the answer.
"I.. I was having a normal day... And.. Then it got weird..."
Marcie turned to the TV, and noticed the episode playing was shown to be the same thing he was talking about.
"First... The car crashed... Because all the other cars in the parking lot suddenly.. Drove into us.."
She continued watching the episode, which shown the cars driving into the station wagon, and landing them all into a pile.
"Then everyone got mad at me.. Cause I was playing with the window..."
The scene was shown on the TV as well.
He's.. Talking about what happened in this episode...
"These weird subtitle things appeared below me in the videogame store... And they made Darwin upset..."
Marcie listened, and watched the TV at the same time.
After several minutes, she realized how he got into the real world.
"I.. Saw another way out... So I went through it.. And.. Then I got here..."
Gumball finally finished, and looked up at her with some sorrow on his face.
"I.. I'm so sorry... That.. That sounds terrible..."
Gumball pulled her into a hug, as tears were now streaming down.
The doorbell broke the moment, as it was pushed several times.
"Coming!"
Marcie stroked the top of Gumball's head, as he continued to hug her.
"It'll be ok.."
"Promise me I won't lose you too.."
"I promise."
They broke away, and Marcie went to the door.
She put her finger to her lips, signaling Gumball to not make a sound.
He quietly nodded and hid on the couch.
Marcie opened the door, with a smile on her face.
"Marcie!"
Jordan hugged Marcie with a grin on his face.
"Hey Jordan! What's up?"
Jordan let go and continued to smile.
"You know, just making money like usual. And what have YOU been up to?"
"Same thing. But.. There's other things too."
Jordan gave her a goofy smile.
"Are you going to let me in any time soon?"
Marcie stepped aside and let him in.
"Of course! You are my brother after all!"
He stepped inside, and whistled at the sight of the place.
"Wow Marcie, you really keep things tip top shape. Like you always do."
He playfully jabbed her in the arm with his elbow, which made her laugh.
"You know me, the organized person of the family!"
Jordan went to look at the Kitchen.
Marcie went to the couch quietly.
"You ok?" She whispered.
Gumball nodded, not making a sound at all.
"Marcie?"
She quickly stood up with surprise.
"Oh hey Jordan! Just checking for any dust! I hate dust!"
Jordan smiled, and let out a laugh.
"Sounds like you do."
Marcie nodded, and laughed as well.
Ok Marcie.. Now's your time..
"Say.. Jordan?"
"Hm?"
Jordan leaned on the doorway of the Kitchen, still smiling.
Marcie twiddled her fingers through her hair, showing she was a bit nervous.
"I have a question.. How would you react if you saw.. Something.. You wouldn't see before.."
Jordan raised an eyebrow.
"Like?"
Marcie thought of examples.
"Um.. Like.. Bigfoot.. Or.. An alien?.."
Jordan laughed at the examples.
"Marcie Bigfoot and aliens don't exist! They're a myth!"
Marcie gave a look of annoyance.
"Yes, I know that. But what if you saw something like those things?"
Jordan thought for a moment.
"Well, I'd be surprised.."
Marcie took a deep breath.
Jordan looked at her with confusion, and was frowning a little.
"Marcie why are you asking me this? Is there something you want to tell me?.."
She nodded.
Jordan stopped leaning on the doorway, and listened.
She took another deep breath, and sighed.
Jordan raised an eyebrow, as Marcie waved over to the couch.
"So.. I was just driving home yesterday.. And.. I saw a weird thing on the road. At first I thought it was a ball one of the children in the neighborhood left, but.. I.. Was wrong.."
She looked over at the couch, and waved over to it again.
"What? Did you get a dog or something?"
Jordan was a bit confused, and a little annoyed, since she wasn't downright saying it.
He heard her whisper something, but he couldn't make it out.
Marcie stood up, and stepped forward a bit.
Jordan's eyes widened a little as Gumball finally came out.
"Jordan.. This is Gumball.. And Gumball, this is Jordan.." Marcie said, introducing the two to each other.
"Uh.. Hi.." Gumball said, as he waved a little.
Jordan had brown hair like Marcie, along with brown eyes. His hair was a bit messy and scattered in some places.
He wore a green short sleeved shirt and red sports shorts with a white stripe on the sides.
"Marcie.. Where did this come from.."
Jordan was no longer smiling.
Marcie looked at him nervously, not expected a reaction like that.
"Marcie where did it come from! Answer me gosh darn it!"
Gumball stood back a little, a little hurt about being called it, and a little alarmed.
"Jordan calm down.. I can explain.."
"Then explain!"
"I found him on the road ok?! He told me he came out of a void and landed here!" Marcie said, nervousness still on her face.
NOTE: Swear words here. Be warned. Ok read on.
"Void?! What the hell Marcie! Are you out of your god damn mind?!"
Gumball now was standing behind Marcie, with alarm still on his face.
Marcie was now angry, and shielded him from Jordan.
"Jordan stop it!"
"Marcie when are you going to freaking learn not to pick up things like that! That thing could be lying about some damn void! What if it's from Hell for crying out loud!"
Marcie continued to shield Gumball, and was still angry.
"Don't assume that! And stop swearing at him you potty mouth! He's only twelve!"
"See Marcie?! You're getting attached to it now!"
"Jordan I'm not leaving a kid to die by himself ok?!"
"There you go again! Always doing crappy decisions and causing more hell for everyone!"
NOTE: Another warning. There is a fight in the next scene, with blood. So PLEASE BE AWARE. Ok read on.
Marcie then pushed him to the wall, which sent Jordan sliding down to the floor.
He then got up and punched her in the face, sending her flying towards the couch.
"Marcie!"
Gumball ran to her side, with panic on his face now.
Oh no oh no oh no...
His pupils turned to dots, as he noticed blood coming from her mouth.
She got back up, and gently pushed Gumball back.
"No Gumball.. Stay out of this.." She said, blood still dripping from her mouth.
She then punched Jordan back, causing his nose to bleed.
"Ok now you done it!" Jordan yelled.
He punched her again, sending her into the coffee table, which was made of glass.
It shattered, and glass fell onto her, some cutting her.
Gumball watched in horror, as Jordan walked up to the table and was about to smash it onto her.
He quickly ran to Marcie and tried to move her away.
Angrily, Jordan threw the table down, as he grabbed Gumball by the legs and threw him to the wall.
Gumball tried to get off the floor, but ended up falling to the ground.
Jordan grabbed the table again and smashed it onto Marcie.
Marcie stroked the top of Gumball's head, as he continued to hug her.
"It'll be ok.."
"Promise me I won't lose you too.."
"I promise."
Remembering the flashback, anger began to enter him.
His head and body began to melt, along with his eyes and whiskers, making them blurry and hard to see, and for his pupils they were gone.
Claw-like hands replaced his normal paws, and dripped his color.
Marcie turned and looked at him weakly in shock.
Jordan noticed him as well, and began to walk towards him angrily.
A low growl escaped Gumball, as Jordan got closer.
Now with energy, Gumball limped to Marcie, and shielded her from her brother.
"Heh. think you can scare me?"
Marcie smiled weakly.
"Get away from her.."
His voice was now deeper, and sounded sort of demonic.
Jordan began charging at them, but was stopped by a weird kind of web, which made him stuck to where he was standing.
"What.. What the hell is this?!"
Gumball carefully picked Marcie up, which to him felt like holding a pillow, and quickly limped to the door.
"You won't get away with this! You hear me?!"
He ignored Jordan's yells, as he was more focused on getting Marcie some help.
Pedestrians shrieked in surprise as he came outside, and fearfully took steps back.
The people noticed Marcie, and now were more frightened.
"Oh my god.. Is that Marcie?!" A jogger girl exclaimed, with worry and fear on her face.
"What on Earth happened to her?!" Another person exclaimed as well.
Now reverting back to his normal self, Gumball continued to hold Marcie in his hands, which still felt like a pillow.
"Please.. She needs help..."
The jogger girl quickly ran to their aid, and called 9-1-1.
As the ambulance arrived, along with a police car, neighborhood children were surrounding Gumball, bombarding him with questions.
The ambulance workers put Marcie on a stretcher, and put her inside the truck.
"Excuse me?"
Gumball looked up to see a policeman looming over him.
"What happened here?" He asked sternly.
The children stepped back so Gumball could answer.
"Marcie was with her brother.. And she was introducing me to him.. But.. It ended up a fight.. A really bad fight.."
The policeman looked at the house, then back at him.
"Where is the brother?"
"He's in the house.. I managed to stop him before he could hurt Marcie even more.."
Gumball fidgeted a little, since he had no idea how the officer would respond to this.
They all looked at the door, hearing Jordan's yells inside.
The children began to cower behind Gumball, as the yells were getting louder and louder.
Jordan came out of the house, with anger on his face. He escaped.
Seeing Gumball, Jordan got even more angry and tried to charge at him, only to be caught in another web.
The children looked behind, seeing Gumball's hand covered in a drippy color with some webbing attached to it.
"Woooaah..." The children murmured, as they surrounded him again, and once again bombarded him with questions.
The policeman handcuffed Jordan, and put him in the back of the police car.
Seeing the ambulance drive away, Gumball tried to follow it, but was stopped by the policeman.
"Hold on, how exactly are you.. Alive?.."
Ignoring the officer, Gumball ran down the sidewalk, worry on his face.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Whoa! Well this chapter was long! 2000 words?!
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
I changed the rating on the story since it has you know, swear words and blood, so.. it is now T.
See you in the next chapter!
INFO
-In this universe, there are two entrance/exits in the Void. The first leads to Elmore, while the other leads to the real world.
-Jordan is known for being cheerful, but is also known for anger issues and overthinking things, hence why he was fighting Marcie like that.
There is also an 'incident', that happened between the two long ago, and he has not let go of that since.
-Since passing through the second Void entrance/exit, Gumball now has the following abilities.
-Super strength! (kind of like Superman, Super girl, and all the other strong superheroes)
-Webbing (kind of like Spiderman)
-Turning into a melted, blurry kind of.. thing at will. (sorry no superheroes really have that so.. eh.)
-Stretchiness! (like most cartoon characters would have)
-And finally, shape shifting! (like in the show sometimes)
-Gumball now knows he is a cartoon. It is learned of that in this chapter.
-Jordan is now in jail. I'm still deciding if he gets released in the next few chapters.
-Marcie is now in the hospital, due to the injuries the fight gave her.
-Well.. Now Gumball knows some swear words now.. Sorry.
-The neighborhood children are fine with Gumball in the real world. In fact, it makes them excited, happy, and fascinated.
END OF INFO.
