I do not own The Amazing of Gumball.
Enjoy!
"Goodbye, Tana" Richard said, walking out of the limousine on the opposite side of the street.
"Bye, Richard. Oink" She said, before getting in but she watched him until he got into the house, before the car drove away.
"I'M HOME!" Richard said, in hot alien suit.
However, they moment he walked in, he felt like he had just come through some kind of barrier because it suddenly felt different inside the house.
"HEY, DAD!" Gumball said, as both he and Darwin were playing videos games in the living room.
He looked at both of them and was stunned.
Gumball wasn't wearing his usual Night clothes which was a white and red sleeved t-shirt with red shorts, instead he was wearing silk Pj's and he wasn't the only one who were wearing that, Darwin was wearing silk pants and fuzzy slippers.
"Looking sharp, boys" He said, surprised.
"Thanks. Mom took us out shopping yesterday" Gumball said.
And that's when Richard noticed the new console and the game, they were playing.
Wasn't that the game he had seen adverts of, but the boy's did not have console or money to play?
"KIDS! IT'S TIME TO GO TO BED!" His wife said, before appearing in pink silk PJ's.
"Awww" All three of them said, as they packed away or turned off what they were doing.
Both Gumball and Darwin want upstairs to get ready for bed while Richard joined than later and was stunned to walk passed Anais room and see a play set he had never seen before, before walking into his bedroom.
"Richard. When did you come back?" Nichole said, she didn't even notice her husband shout.
"Just now" He said, "I see, you all want shopping"
"Oh, this? This is just small" Nichole said, "The money, you put in yesterday really helped the family. I took the kid's out shopping and we even have cell phones now"
"Oh" He said, maybe he was too stunned by the feeling as if he had stepped into an alternate reality to process anything.
Than Nicholes phone rang, which she had hooked up to alert her if her kids were on theirs, past their bed time and shouted.
"GO TO BED! I KNOW YOUR ON YOUR PHONES!" She yelled.
The texting stopped.
Everything was so different.
Richard wondered if he was really gone for four days.
We'll tomorrow, he can finally send some time with his family.
Ch 6: Beware the Paparazzi
The bus was here and all the kid's walked out the door in their new clothes and eyes glued to their smart phones.
Suddenly Anais laughed, Gumball had just sent her a meme he had created and she gave him a heart.
All of them walked onto the bus and did not even notice Rocky.
"Whoa, looking good!" Rocky said.
"Uh, huh" Darwin said, still glued to his phone.
All three of them were so busy that they didn't even notice, those who they walked past compliment them.
However, when they sat down, that's when they all pulled away from their phones.
"Wait. When did we get on the bus?" Gumball said.
Anais gasped and said. "Quick! Put your phones in your pocket or bag! We could lose years if we stare long enough!"
She had heard of people who just stared at their phone all the time, she didn't know that she was in danger of becoming one.
Gumball immediately put his in his pocket.
However, they all saw Darwin's eyes slowly go back to his phone screen.
"NO!" Gumball said, grabbing his brother's phone and putting it in his pocket. "This is for your own good! We don't want a repeat of last time!"
And Darwin momentarily turned into a monster but then managed to control himself and say. "Your right. I just need some air"
"You look good, Gumball" Penny suddenly said.
"Oh..thanks" Gumball said, trying to be cool and failing miserable, he wore sunglasses on top of his head, a red and black chequered shirt, denim jeans and sneakers.
He looked incredibly good.
And then Clayton made himself know since he was sitting next to her and they were treated to a jealous death glare.
"Dude. Why are you even mad at us?" Gumball said, surprising him. "You binned our usual clothes. Do you think we can find a sweater like that, anymore? Or Darwin's shoes? We won't even be dressed like this if it wasn't for you!"
And Clayton was left speechless but still mad.
"WHO WANTS OUR PHONE NUMBER!" Darwin suddenly yelled.
He just couldn't help himself.
However, all three were surprised when most of the kids wanted their phone number now that they actually had modern day phones and looked incredibly cool.
However, when they were nearing the school, Banana joe yelled. "LOOK! MR WATTERSON IS ON A BILLBOARD!"
They all looked and found it was true, he was advertising a new energy drink.
"An Energy Drink?" Anais said, "Dad didn't tell us he was advertising an energy drink."
"How many people, do you think have seen it already?" Gumball said.
"I bet a ton" Darwin said.
But then, all three heard an ominous gong.
"What the hell was that?" Anais said, both of them could not answer her but they were creeped out as well.
They did not know that it was sound of a celebrity's worst nightmare.
The Paparazzi.
#School#
All three of them enjoyed the attention they got as they walked down the halls to class, nobody would dare make fun of their clothes now.
They entered the classroom.
Their teacher was very surprised to see their new attire.
"Good morning, Miss Simian" Darwin said, as her mouth was open.
Over the weekend, she had time to cool down and really think about it.
What were the chances that the Watterson actually had money to sue? They were still walking around in cheap clothes she could easily find in a discount store.
But seeing their new more expensive clothes, all doubt left her in a blink of an eye.
"Welcome class" She said, "Allow me to take the register"
Than the class started, however, it didn't take long for the cancer known as texting to grip the class and Gumball jeans, to start vibrating none stop.
"Mr Watterson..." She said, indicating for him to hand whatever was in his pocket to her.
However, she was stunned when he got out two brand new touch phones from his pocket and placed in her hands.
They were both so much nicer than her flip phone.
"You'll get them back at the end of the day" She said, putting them in her draw before continuing class. "As I was saying-"
That's when Tina Rex noticed something at the corner of her eye that she wouldn't have noticed if she wasn't so tall.
"Miss Simian. There is a guy climbing up the pipe" She suddenly said.
And that was all the warning they got before a blind flash of a camera light assaulted them, almost blinding them all.
"Next headline for the Elmore local celebrity kids." Said, a guy who had a camera for a head. "Children of Model Richard Watterson attend class"
"WHAT THE! WHAT!" Suddenly Gumball said, recovering however Darwin had yet to.
"Who are you? This is a class!" Miss Simian said.
However, the guy did not go away instead he took more pictures.
She pulled the blinders down.
They thought they had gotten rid of him.
They were naïve.
Instead they found out, he had two long sticks with him which he used to once again appear at the window, 5 minutes later.
Miss Simain ended up drawing all the curtains and doing class in the dark.
However, the moment the bell rang for break and both of them made the mistake of going outside, they were assaulted by the man flashes of light.
"Next scoop! Gumball and Darwin Watterson, play outside just like everybody else!" He said.
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU AND WHATS WITH THE FLASHING!?" Gumball said.
"Name's Press Paparazzi" Said, the guy. "I'm the photographer of what people would call a trash tair magazine. Your dad is now famous enough for me to stalk you"
Both of them were horrified.
"HEY!" Suddenly a voice said, making them all turn around and they saw it was Tobias.
"Don't take pictures of them. Take pictures of me" Tobias said, as both Gumball and Darwin found took the chance to escape.
"Im, sorry but who are you?" Said, Press.
"Tobias. Tobias Wilson" He said.
Recognition flashed in his eyes which boosted Tobias ego.
However.
"Are you perhaps related to celebrity JK Wilson?" Said, Press.
Tobias paused and said. "Urm, no. My dad name is Harold Wilson. He's a psychologi-HEY WHERE YOU GOING?" seeing that he was leaving.
"Look kid. I don't have time to waste on a nobody" He said, shocking him to core. "I'm paid to capture people, the public actually recognises. That's how I get paid." than he left to try and find his target.
However, he ran into Anais instead.
Suddenly she was blinded by a flash of camera light.
"WHAT THE! WHAT!" She said, who was this guy?
"Anais Watterson, how does it feel to be four and be in a class above your own brothers?" Said, the man.
Anais tried to escape but he ran after her.
The day she feared had come.
She feared that a complete stranger would come to the school and kidnap a child due because of the shocking lack of security around the school but she didn't know the person would be stalking her!
Suddenly she turned a corner and was about to pass a door when she was grabbed by a hand that pulled her inside.
However, before she was could scream an orange stubble went over her mouth.
Wait, she know the orange stumble!
She looked up to find she was captured by Gumball and Darwin, they watched as the man want by, before releasing her.
"Good, he's gone" Gumball said. "For a minute there I thought he could smell our scent."
"Who is that?" Anais said.
"He said that he was Press Paparazzi" Darwin said.
And that was all Anais needed to know before she got out her phone and started dialling.
"Who are you calling?" Gumball said.
"The Police." Anais said, "We have grounds to have him arrested"
Than the call went through.
"Hello" she said, "I would like to report a breaking a entering. A fully-grown man with a camera for a head just walked into school and started stalking me and my brothers and taking pictures."
Both of her brothers smiled.
However, what she heard next stunned her.
"NO! HE'S NOT THE PHOTOGRAPHER FOR PICTURE DAY!" She said, but then the line hung up.
All of them froze.
"I forgot that this town's police is a complete joke" She said, "We're on our own"
"Maybe, he'll go away if we ignore him?" Darwin said, before all three of them bravely ventured out and made their way to class.
Class was safety.
However, the moment they were away, he pounced.
Nowhere was safe and all three were going half blind.
Unfortunately, students near them were going half blind.
The teachers finally stepped in and throw him out.
However, this was all in vain because when the bus came to take them home, everybody on the bus was stunned to see the man get into a car, that had a huge camera on it and started snapping photos.
So many vehicles crashed into each other from the light alone and the police had to step in and book him.
Luckily, they were all alive enough to make their own way home.
"People. could have been killed!" Donut Sheriff said. "You're going to be behind bars for several days minister" handcuffing him.
"We'll. Can I at least take my laptop and charger?" Said, Press.
"Odd, request. But sure" Donut Sheriff said, actually letting him have it.
He was than shoved into a police station and uncuffed before being put behind bars with his laptop and charger.
To make the police more incompetent, there was actually a plug socket in the cell.
Than they left him alone.
Every one of them left the room.
"Morns." He said. "They are lucky there is so little crime in this town" he opened his laptop and put it on.
However, instead of the boot-up screen there was something else.
The screen was split into many screens, showing all the cameras he had set up.
These cameras were in the Watterson home that he had set up while Richard was out jogging.
He had been doing this for years so of course, he had been very fast about it.
He watched Gumball, Anais and Darwin walk into the kitchen, looking shaken.
"Kids! What happened!" Richard said.
"Some lunatic chased us around the school, taking pictures and almost made the bus crash" Gumball said.
"But lucky, he's behind bars now" Darwin said, "So we won't hear from him, ever again"
"So, what are having tonight?" Anais said.
"Chinese" Richard said.
None of them know they were being watched.
Press started to laugh evilly as his camera lenses zoomed in and he said.
"Next scoop. Model father allows his kids to have Chinese."
He'll, make lots of money from this.
And scene!
Next chapter, the whole family gets the eerily feeling that they are being watched and it proves true when their classmates mysteriously know what they have been up in their own home thanks to a magazine. Review/fav and follow!
