Chapter two

Bam looked in the mirror and rubbed his chin a little after having just shaved. This wasn't by far the first time he ever shaved off his trademark goatee, but every time he did shave it off it seemed so strange to him when he looked at himself in the mirror. He looked at his reflection some more, taking it all in. He then reached up and pulled down some of his hair into his eyes and proceeded to study it for a few seconds. After standing there in front of the bathroom mirror focusing on himself for a little while, Bam let out an elongated sigh and then left the bathroom.

"Phil! Ape!" He called out as he walked down the hallway

He entered the living room and stood there until his parents came into the room.

"You need something sweetie?" April asked

"Um yeah actually. I need you guys to do a favor for me."

"Anything." Replied Phil

Bam rubbed his newly bare chin and thought briefly "Ok Phil I need you to go find me some new clothes. Something like completely opposite of what I would normally wear."

"Ok. Where should I go to find these clothes?"

"I don't know. The Goodwill. Where ever. Just find something you wouldn't expect me to wear."

Phil nodded his head and then Bam looked at April.

"Ape I need you to get me some hair dye."

"Alright. What color?"

"Um… the lighter the better. Probably something like your hair color. Oh and I, um, am going to need you to actually dye my hair for me."

"Alright. I can do that."

"Oh and I'm going to need some kind of make up. There are certain things that I need to cover up."

"Ok I can find something."

"How soon would you need this stuff?" Asked Phil

"Like right now." He said making a pointing motion toward the floor "I have to get out of this house, but I can't go out looking like this."

"Oh we understand, Bam." April said as she hugged him "We're glad to help you out."

"Yeah…" He sighed and pulled away "And I'm going to have to come up with another identity too. Something that has absolutely nothing to do with Bam Margera. I can't give myself away at all."

The next few hours Bam and his parents worked on giving Bam a whole new appearance and identity. April shook her head as she ran her gloved hands through Bam's dye-soaked hair, making sure that all of his hair was being covered evenly with the dye. She could not believe that she was actually standing there doing that for him.

"Ok Bam. You just have to let that sit in for a while and then I'll rinse it out for you."

"Ok cool." He stood up and started to walk into another room

"I can't wait to see how it turns out. I'm a little scared, but I can't wait."

"Yeah same here." He let out a slight laugh

Phil came inside carrying a couple bags full of clothes he bought from the Goodwill. He went to where Bam was and sat the bags down by him.

"I uh wasn't quite sure what to get so I just picked some things I knew would fit you. Just go through it and see if there's anything there."

"It's probably all shit but oh well. I just need something to go out in right now to begin with. I can buy something when I go out."

Bam dumped all the clothes out onto the floor in front of him and began to rummage through the piles he made. April made a comment about him not dripping dye on the clothes, which caused him to roll his eyes and snicker a little. Soon he had enough clothes picked out that he thought would work well enough for him. He separated the clothes he picked out into another smaller pile and then carefully looked through that pile to see if he could put together a couple outfits for himself. He picked up a few articles of clothing that he picked out and held them in his hands.

"Great these will work. Thanks Phil."

"You're welcome."

He took the clothes into the bathroom and sat them on the counter. He then looked from the clothes and at his reflection in the mirror. With a nod of his head he mentally said goodbye to his familiar old self. What he would see in the mirror after his complete transformation would be a whole new person. A whole new identity. A whole new him. He was a little scared to embrace this new persona and appearance he was adopting, but he knew he could handle it. He was more than ready for it.
