Chapter Two: Sudden Changes, Chaotic Future

Just then, Bart walked into the room. He was whistling a tune happily while not looking at Lisa directly. "Bart, check out my new bracelet," pointed out Lisa as she was going to show him her new bracelet. Suddenly her eyes widened in shock, why was Bart staring at her in such a weird way?… Bart seemed to be in a state of tranquillity as he continued to gaze at Lisa in a seductive way…

"Ohhh, Lisa…" He moaned, "You look so pretty today… Did you put on some perfume?" Lisa panicked as he approached her like a tiger stalking his prey…

"Cut it out," yelled Lisa, "You're just being weird today, you know that, Bart?"

"All the better to look at you with," murmured Bart, ignoring Lisa's words. He was about to throw himself at Lisa, suddenly… Marge yelled something to Homer. Taken aback, he shook himself and returned back to his normal self… But Lisa was creep out by her experience… What in the world had happened to her? The sooner she could take off her bracelet, the better! But she was in for an even nastier shock.

"I can't take it off!" she cried desperately as she tugged at the cursed magnet... But it wouldn't break! Instead, it clung to her yellowish skin like a metallic leech. Finally, she gave up in despair, it was no use… "Lisa! It's time to go to school!"

It was even worse when Otto, the Springfield bus driver, pulled up in front. Instantly, all the boys wanted Lisa to sit with most of them! Even Nelson, the Springfield Elementary bully, offered to sing Lisa a serenade of love unrequited. But Lisa refused; she wasn't used to boys pouring out their desires to her… Just then, she caught the eyes of a new student… The new boy had short black hair, a dreamy expression and a shy smile… He waved at her. Strangely, he wasn't obsessed like the other students were; it was like he was immune to her spell.

But Lisa felt a pulling of her heart, she yearned for him… She wanted to know him.

"Hi, my name is Lisa," she smiled as she introduced and seated herself next to him, "What is your name?" The cyan of his eyes was like the long-lost jewels of the sea.
"My name is Damien Thessalonians Monroe. But just call me Damon." His pale face flushed pink. "I hope that I didn't bother you just now, my family has just moved here to Spring-Brooks. And my father has said that I needed to study English for my exams."

"The name of this town is Springfield and the state is Middle-Western Arizona, I've lived here all my life." corrected Lisa, ignoring the wails of the other males in the bus. She felt an uncharacteristic giggle well up within her, but she suppressed it.

Immediately, there was a loud explosion as the magnetic field of the Earth went haywire! The Earth shook as the magnetic field caused nearby planets to be attracted to it and the Sun was being repelled by the results! But unfortunately, nobody knew what had just happened to the infrastructure… Except one person!
"Good glavins!" shouted the scientist, Professor John Frink as he watched the sky, "It's the collision of the heavenly scopes!"

"What was that?" shouted Damon as a huge shockwave shook the entire solar system. The cosmic boom caused traffic jams and buildings to shake on their foundations globally. Otto couldn't control the bus and it swerved dangerously on the highway, missing several cars. "I don't know!" yelled Lisa, even her high IQ couldn't calculate what had happened just then. She held her seat grimly. All the children screamed in terror as the bus was skidding towards their doom! Without realising it, Damon had put his arms around Lisa in protection. "I'll protect you," he promised Lisa… Just as the school bus came to a halt! Immediately, Damon realised what happened and withdrew his hands in pure embarrassment.

Luckily, the bus stopped just in time and no one was hurt but what had happened to society! The national icon for Springfield, the Power Plant, was leaking radioactive waste into the rivers because of the cracks in it, the Springfield Prison collapsed and several criminals escaped (including the evil Snake). Buildings collapsed and many people were trapped. Cars collided into each other and many of the animals, wild and tame from the Springfield Pound ran free once more… Oh what chaos there was! Luckily, most of the people escaped from the bus. Lisa looked around her, Damon seemed to be concerned, "Are you hurt," he asked her.
"No, it's just… A feeling I have. Many people need to be found…"

Bart looked around him, "Aye Karumba!" he exclaimed, "Look at that!" Lisa and Damon turned as a hunched man approached them, it was Principal Skinner! But he looked different. His usual two eyes had mutated into three! And he sprouted vines and roots like a hideous plant. "I-I-need-help, I drank-from-the ri-i-ver." The Principal rasped horribly as he pointed to a nearby stream full of glowing green substance. "Eugh!" yelled Damon, "You're not even human! What are you?"
"I am a mutated MAN PLANT!" roared the former human. "I need food!" His mouth flew open as the children saw his many fangs. "And I have decided who is going to be on the menu! LISA!" Skinner approached Lisa hungrily, but without warning, he couldn't stand Lisa's presence, "AARRGH! Am not immune to magnetic force fields…" He slid away quickly while moaning about meat.

"Let's get out of here," said Bart, Lisa and Damon couldn't agree more.
"Somehow, after drinking from the polluted streams of Springfield, the people have turned into semi-monsters!" yelled Lisa. Sherri and Terri spoke up,
"What am I going to do?" they said in unison, speaking as one.
"I got a great idea: LET'S RUN!" yelled Milhouse like a childish baby.
"No, we shouldn't run. As long as we stay near Lisa's bracelet, we are safe from the creatures!" said Damon, asserting himself.

"Says who?" Bart yelled at Damon, he didn't like this bossy new boy.
"Says I." Damon yelled back, he didn't like Lisa's brother either. Damon seemed furious at Bart. "If we all stick together, we should be safe…"
"Should be or would be?" retorted Bart angrily.
