Chapter Five: A Brad Burb Welcome

"Why Brad! There you are!" the clone spoke, "We've been looking all over for you!"

Brad quickly uncovers his face and begins to look around, "Are-are you talking to me?" he asked, his voice trembling.

"Why of course I'm talking to you Brad," the clone responded, placing a hand on his shoulder, "Who else would I be talking to that would be wearing such a spiffy outfit?"

Brad sweat drops, "Uhh, yeah, about that-"

"Now Brad, no need to explain why you're out of uniform," the clone cut off.

Brad cocks his eyebrow, "Uniform?"

"Yeah Brad," the clone replied, "You're not wearing your tan jacket, what's the deal?"

Brad shifts uncomfortably, "What's the deal?" he repeated, "Well you see-"

"No need to explain Brad," the clone interrupted raising his left hand in silence, "I understand, besides, we should be getting back to the others now."

Brad gulped, "The others? Look uhh...Brad, I don't mean to be rude but I really have to be going-"

"Going?" the clone responded, "Nonsense Brad, you know that us fellow Brad Burbs only travel in a pack!"

"We do?" Brad questioned staring at the clone's confused face, "I-I mean of course we do."

"Well come on Brad," the clone replied, placing his arms around Brad's shoulders, "Let's go!"

"Oh somebody please help me," Brad thought as he was dragged into the darkness.

Meanwhile: At the Burb Residence

"Open up Brad, we know you're in there!" a police officer spoke.

After ten seconds of silence the police bursts into the house.

One police officer turns to the others, "You men, search the upstairs of the house; you men, the backyard. I'll do this floor."

"Alright sir," the officers respond.

"Crap," the Brad clone thought from inside the pantry, "If the cops see or hear me I'm toast, there has got to be a way to escape, but how...?"

"Dad?" Johnny spoke from outside the door, "Dad? Are you okay? Where are you?"

Suddenly a hand reaches out from the pantry and grabs Johnny. The clone quickly forces Johnny into the pantry and covers his mouth with his hand.

"Don't move," the Brad clone states.

Meanwhile: Back at the Giant B

Brad was dragged deeper and deeper into the darkness.

"Come on," Brad thought to himself, "There's got to be some possible way that I can escape this."

The clone releases Brad from his grip; Brad begins to shiver.

"Oh no, he's found out the truth-he knows I'm not one of them, I'm doomed."

All of a sudden, the lights flicker on as seven Brad Burb clones pop out from behind couch.

"SURPRISE!" they shout, springing up from behind various furniture.

Brad stands there unable to move.

"Well don't just stand and stare Brad," one of the Brad clones spoke up, "This is a party for you."

"For me?" Brad asked, eyeing the door, "But-but why?"

"Because Brad," another clone stepped forward, "It's your birthday."

"My birthday?" Brad managed to speak out, "But if we're all clones then shouldn't you guys-I mean, us fellow clones throw a party for all of us?"

All of the Brad Burbs stand there in shock.

"I guess we never thought of that before Brad Burb clone 1," one of the clones responded.

"Wait a minute," a clone called out from behind the couch, "I'm Brad Burb clone 1!"

The clone behind the chair comes out of his hiding spot, "You are not!" he spoke, "I'm Brad Burb clone 1, you're Brad Burb clone 6!"

"That's a lie!" the couch clone shouted back.

"It is not!"

"Look guys," Brad Burb clone 5 spoke, "It's obvious what's going on here."

"What's that?" Brad Burb clone 2 asked.

"One of us Brad Burb clones...is an impostor!"

All of the Brad Burb clones gasp as Brad desperately tries to inch his way out of the room.

"There's only one way to settle this," Brad Burb clone 5 spoke.

"What's that?" Brad Burb clone 3 asked.

"We're going to have to all take the official Brad Burb test, and see who the master of weeding, watering and soup really is," Brad Burb clone 5 responded.

"But how is that going to help us catch the impostor?" Brad Burb clone 7 spoke.

"Easy," Brad Burb clone 5 responded, "Whoever is the master will be able to weed, water and soup out the impostor, now let's get going."

All of the Brad Burb clones exit the room, leaving a terrified Brad behind.

"I have a bad feeling about this."

Author's Note: It was sad to find out that Brad Burb and his family were deleted from Sims 3 shortly before it was released, but hopefully this long-waited for chapter of "It's Raining Brad Burbs" will help to ease us fellow Brad Burb lovers' pain.
