Chapter 11: The Dark and Endless Night

Inside the Natural History Museum, the four girls move through the exhibits, keeping their eyes and ears open fow whatever had drawn them all here. It dosen't take long before a soft, deranged muttering begins to float through the air. They discover that the source of it is none other then Eric Cartman.

The world's chubbiest dictator is currently standing before a glass case. Inside this case is the frequently mentioned Macabra Skull, a finely detailed clay replica of a human skull, painted with sharp, angle based geometric patterns of black, red, and green paint.

Cartman is gently petting the glass case and muttering to himself when he hears the girls approach. "Who's there!" he demands, tense and on edge. "Is that you Kyle? I'M GONNA KILL YOU!"

It is then that the four step out of the shadows, causing Cartman to become visably relieved. "Oh, it's just you." he states with a sigh of relief.

"Eric Cartman," Numbah 362 states, all business. "In the name of the KND, I am placing you under arrest!"

Eric simply laughs at them. "You think I'm gonna let a bunch of stupid girls stop me?" he mocks while thinking up every vile swear and cuss word he knows. The V-chip in his brain has become so sensitive, he can trigger it just by thinking vile language. Bolts of lightning leap from his hands, striking the four and sending them to the ground in a twitchy pile. All but one, that is.

"STUPID GIRLS!" Numbah 86 exclaims with white hot rage, fire spring up all around her. "LET'S SEE WHO'S STUPID WHEN I BEAT YOU INTO A HOLE IN THE GROUND FAT STUPID BOY!" she rages incoherantly while taking slow, pounding, rage filled stomps closer and closer.

"Stay back!" Cartman demands while firing a bolt of electricity. It landed to the left of the enraged Decommissioning Chief, who's rage was melting the very floor she steped across.

"I'm warning you!" Another lightning bolt, this one explodes to her right, and Fanny continues ahead unfazed, with fire and murder in her eyes.

"RESPECT MAH AUTHORITY!" Now Eric has lost it, his sanity eaten away by fear, rage, power and evil magic. He unleashes a bolt from each hand, both of which strike Fanny directly in the chest. She seizes up, muscles locking in place, then falls to the floor, the fire now extingushed.

Hands still crackling with electricity, Cartman smashes his right hand through the display case, oblivious to the shards of glass cutting into his hand and grabbed the skull.

Several sparks jumped from Eric's hand into the skull, as the buy found himself mesmerized by the seemingly endless pits of black shadows that were its empty eye sockets. The drum beat became louder and louder within his mind as the black, red, and green paint began to glow.

Then, something lit up in Eric's eyes as he slowly realized he was in over his head. The spark of insanity, of madness and hatred and chaos that had burned within Eric all his life suddenly left him. Then, for a just a single moment, a flicker of green fire apeared in the eyes sockets of the skull.

Then the darkness came.

A infinitly deep portal of swirling darkness opened on the floor. The five kids present scrambled to avoid falling in. A green fire could be seen burning in the depths, slowly rising to enter the world above.

Eric gazes into the abyss with a look of both wonder and terror. "here come the drums." he muttered quietly as the defening noise takes over his mind.

Back in the city streets, a make-shift medical center is trying to treat the wounded. Ness and The Doctor are tending to a blond girl wearing a pink dress with a ribbon in her hair, while Dexter and a blond boy in a green uniform consiting of trousers, a waist coat and a bow tie try to fix a tank. A bald kid with an arrow on his forehead suddenly drops from the sky near a brunette girl in a blue dress tending to another patient. He hold the wound Black Cuervo in the crook of his arm. The girl in blue is somehow controlling a small mass of water, causing it to dance through the air before pressing it into the patients wound, which miraculously vanishes. As they leave to continue the fight, the bald kid sets down the super-villain, and the healer gets to work on her.

Everyone stops what they're doing, however, when the ground begins to shiver and shake, as if the very planet itself was quaking in fear of what was to occur. Numbah 2, who was currently having his leg bandeged, mutters, "I have a bad feeling about..."

Just then a towering mountin of darkness, taller then the greatest skyscrapper, burst forth into the sky, obliterating the roof of the Museum. After piercing the sky, the evil monolith stops growing, and sprouts broad, jagged arms that end in clawed hands. Four horns rise from the demon's head as a mouth forms, and fiery red and green eyes, burning with hatred, open.

"I've got to get to the T.A.R.D.I.S.!" The Doctor exclaims apologetically while dropping his current instrument and rushing off.

Everyone within fifty miles watches in horror. The Foster's Friends, the few remaining followers of Cartman, and the two Eds, one of whom is so horrorfied, he drops the laser pistol he had just used to destroy a Cartmanbot sneaking up on the other.

The Monster then flings his arms further into the sky, causing a horde of winged demons to erupt from the same portal from wence he came. The monsterous creatures are so grotesque, I cannot describe them without raising the content rating of this fan fiction to M. They spread across the sky, soaring over the land, hungering for blood and destruction.

An dark, starless night descends across the world, as more and more monsters breach the Time Lock. In the Gulf of Mexico, an enormous winged monster with tentacles spewing from its mouth rose from the ocean's depths. High in the Slavic mountins, another winged titan of evil, this one with a horrible horned head, burst from a mountin like a volcano of darkness, sending hoards of ghosts to cause chaos below. These are the horrors that will ravage the Earth.

In the starless sky above, strange, bio-mechanical starships in the shapes of cuttlefish materialize, their decks filled with stone statues of angels, hands covering their eyes, and weird, spike covered shell monsters. The Moon itself fades to darkness, and in its place in a blood red, warped screaming face, swirling into the abyss of the cosmos. These are the monsters that will spread this evil across the galaxy, reaping entire civilizations and destroying the stars themselves.

The Great Salt Lake begins to bubble, and suddenly becomes a green, icky, bubbly nightmare. Those who were peacefully floating are suddenly dragged beneath the lich, and a horrible horned, red robed skelaton being rises out of the filth, joining the ranks of the countless other abominations now ravaging the Earth.

All, however, obey one master, and he has decided to speak.

All of the world's robots, including the ones in Miracle city, as well as those with even the smallest spark of magic, stop what they are doing, and stand perfectly stiff. Eyes and visual scanners glowing green, they repeat the words spoken by the Demon. Millions of voices, all speaking out the same three words.

"I AM AKU."

A/N: Sorry about the shortness of the chapter, I just really though the unleashing of the monsters should recive its own chapter. Bonus points to anyone who recognizes all the unamed horros.
