Gumball, now Warrior-Cat, has become an overnight sensation. As he goes out fighting crime, he'll meet someone that he didn't see it coming.
Chapter 4: I'm Warrior-Cat (Part Two)
Gumball's P.O.V
After one night of me getting my ass kick while saving a man against street thugs, I become an overnight sensation. Someone from the diner had recorded the whole thing and put it on YouTube.
A few people saw the fight on YouTube, call their friends to watch it and call their friends to watch it. And so on and so on. By then everybody in the city of Elmore, quite possibly the world, had seen the video and that keep the viewers increasing.
Then, before you know it, I was already on the news.
"Breaking news. We're interrupted for this message. Just moments ago a video was posted of a brutal beating of a man by three local gang members then someone dress up in a wet suit and beaten the guys in a showdown. Who is this man?"
It went from every radio.
"Who is this mysterious stranger? Is he friendly or a menace? That what everybody will like to know"
To every stores and restaurants.
"We have given a theory: Is there a superhero out there? That's what everybody's been talking about."
To every workplaces.
"We had given a full detail. Yes, the Superhero theory is real."
And eventually, it went to the school.
Members from Darwin's club and Anais' club were seeing the report by someone's iPhone, including them.
"Here are some people who had witnesses it." The woman turns his attention to a bystander from the diner. "Sir, what can you tell us what you saw?"
The bystander stated "Yo, girl. It's like this. I was walking down the street minding my own business and I just saw these fools beaten the hell out of a old man. But that's not all what I saw. I saw someone wearing a driver suit, walked up to him, and beat the living hell out of them. I mean sure, that guy was all jacked up in the head, but he was awesome! I recorded the whole thing. See look check it out."
He shows the record of Warrior-Cat battling the thugs. The kids at school were all in awed.
The woman questioned "And did get the name of the man of the video?"
The bystander answered "Yeah, dude, call himself "Warrior-Cat." The woman faces the camera "And there you have it folks, the masked man that everyone been talking about call himself Warrior-Cat. If you like to see this, check on the video in YouTube."
The kid who had the iPhone then go to YouTube and clicked on the video. As they were seeing it, they couldn't tell if it's real or not. Not even Darwin and Anais.
"We have given a statement from the police if they knew about this."
The police chief said "We have no knowledge of whoever it is, but we give our thanks to the mysterious Warrior-Cat."
For the first time in my life, I feel like a real hero just like in the comics.
Tobias and Rachel was watching the news on the t.v with his family.
Tobias' mother, Teresa Wilson, said "This kid is going to died."
Tobias replied "Are you kidding me, mom? That guy kick ass!"
Harold Wilson said "I agree, son."
Teresa shouted at them "Are you both kidding me? This kid had taken the law in his own hand like a public menace! Jesus, first the two mask heroes and then this kid?"
After that fucking night of me being hero, I gain some confidence as I swaggered in the hallways. I didn't care what people think of me; I was a rock star. With the bruises on my face, I have the balls of becoming in with the crowd, even thought people sees me as a nobody. I was still wearing the suit underneath my clothes like all superheroes do.
In my class, everyone is talking about my alter-ego about what happen, and no one even tried to suspect me.
The next day, in class, everyone's been talking about Warrior-Cat. They played the video again so everyone can see. While everyone was watching it, Gumball kept quiet through the whole time, not breathing another word to anyone. It was fun until she came along with a hollering.
"Class! Sit down and shut up!"
The class sated down and looked at their teacher. She was giving her lesson, but the students didn't want to heard her; all they talked about was Warrior-Cat. As he was taking notes, Gumball just happens to be listening on Carmen and Teri's conversation. Carmen leans in onto Teri and said "So anyway, a friend of mind give me a copy of the video. I couldn't believe in at first, but after seeing the whole video, it made a lot of sense."
Teri questioned "But who is he?"
Carmen answered "I heard that it's probably some activist trying to make the world a better place."
Teri suggested "I heard that he lives in the sewer or at the bottom of the ocean, because of that diver suit of his. Living and surviving on germs and viruses I don't want to know." She shudders at that thought.
"What makes you think he's a he?"
"I don't know. He sounds like a he, but with a hind of a woman's voice."
Gumball thought What? I do not have a woman's voice! He rises an eyebrow. Do I? And what's with that talk about me as an activist or living at the bottom of the ocean.
Masami steps in and commented "I heard that he's not human."
Molly steps in and suggested "I heard that he doesn't have a face."
Carman pointed "It's the mask."
Masami questioned "Then why does he wearing a mask?"
Teri freaked "Probably trying to hides his tentacles and squid like forms!"
Gumball thought Oh my god. What a cry baby.
Masami said "And what's this guy name again? Was it Mad-Cat?"
Molly guessed "Kick-Cat?"
Teri guessed "Bat-Cat?"
Molly, Carmen, and Masami rises an eyebrow and hushed in union "Bat-Cat?"
"Yeah. Bat-Cat." Nodded Teri.
Masami asked "He's a cat. How can a cat becomes a bat, Teri?"
Teri guessed "An experiment accident?"
After hearing that, Gumball made the mistake of his life. He blurred "Its' Warrior-Cat! His name is Warrior-Cat!" His outburst had got the entire student looking at him with suspicious, even the teacher. Gumball looked right and left from his eyes and discover that they were watching him. He was so embarrassed. He said to everyone "Sorry. Sorry. Please continue, Miss Simian."
I tired to cover my frustration and secrets by eating leftover meatloaf with the family. Every night was meatloaf because it was the only thing dad can make. If mom wasn't working all the time, we wouldn't have meatloaf night.
Richard said "So, uh, this Warrior-Cat guy, is he around here in the neighborhood?"
Gumball quickly lied "I...guess so, but have you guys seen it?"
Nicole answered "I seen it a couple of times at work with my co-workers, and they ask me of what I think of it. He was okay, but I think it's kinda of stupid of someone of someone dressing up like that and fight crime."
Gumball said "Yeaah, but mom, the guy is a hero. He save a man from being beaten to death."
"Yeah, with a baseball bat and a trashcan lid. Speaking of which, when I came home, I saw the trashcan lid is gone. Have you notice that, Richard?"
Richard answered while eating his food "No, I don't think so. Must have been stolen."
Nicole continued "Anyway, Gumball, have you look at the package that I have left on you bed?"
Gumball swallowed "Yeah, I been meaning to talk to you about it." Gumball took it out from his pocket, revealing a small taser gun. "Why would you-"
Nicole explained "I notice the bruises on your face; some of them weren't there when I left for work. Did you get mugged again?"
"No."
"Are you being bullied at school? Is it Tobias again?"
"Uh, sometimes, but these bruises weren't from him."
"Look, sweetheart, I don't want to see you getting mugged again or worse. I almost lost you and I'm giving you for protection. I love you, Gummypuss."
"I love you too, mom."
Poor mom, she's even worse than dad when he's with by my side every five minutes when I first got injure. I kinda feel bad for lying to her, including my entire family.
Every night, while my family is busy doing what they were always doing, I spend my time wearing the costume and patrolling the streets, but who say that you didn't need to patrol the streets where you can just go building to building?
Gumball, dressing in his Warrior-Cat costume, climb on a building and look at the streets for any signs of danger.
I had made a Facebook account for my other self and after that, I had already have 10,000 friends. As for Gumball Watterson, I have only have four friends, two of them are my siblings.
Whenever I don't see any danger like a man getting beaten again or a woman being rape against her will, I jump to the next building. I got to say it feels great when you risk yourself jump from building to building.
Warrior-Cat jump from building to building, getting the urge. However, he stop when he saw a building that was way too far for him to jump.
Then again, maybe jumping to smaller buildings and patrolling the streets will be less risky.
Warrior-Cat exclaimed "Fuck no!"
Warrior-Cat then exit out of the building. He walk through the streets where people he walk on cheered for him. A guy high five him as he walk pass him. Another one rise his fist in the air while shouting his name as respect. A group of girls squeal and cheer at Warrior-Cat.
Warrior-Cat smiled underneath his mask "They love me."
You want to know what's the best thing about being a hero? It's the respect of that you deserve. Anyway, ever since I set up a Facebook account for Warrior-Cat, I have been getting message from everyone telling how awesome I am and getting cries from them about a situation they're expressing. But the one I'm about to do is far most challenging than saving a damn kitten or saving a man being beaten to death. I got it from an anonymous tip. Actually, I wouldn't say anonymous, I would say I got it from a awesome girl.
Flashback: Elmore's Diner
After class, Gumball had invited Penny to join her on the diner that he and his siblings always hang out. They order their favorite milkshakes, and Penny order a chocolate milkshake just like Gumball.
Penny said "So this is where you guys hang out?"
Gumball answered "Yep."
Anais took a slurp from her drink and replied "You never hang out here, Penny?"
Penny answered "Nah, the cheerleaders would never agree to go to a place like this?"
Gumball guessed "Because of Masami?"
"Exactly. She said that it'll ruin her perfect body. Perfect body, my ass. That girl is getting a bit chunky."
Gumball surprisingly said "Why, Penny Fitzgerald, you never said something bad about Masami."
"Well, lately she's been giving me the business because I keep messing up the moves during practices."
Gumball said "I don't care what she said; you have the perfect moves that any cheerleaders can ever have."
Penny smile warmly "Thank you, Gumball."
Darwin asked Gumball "Say, me and Anais are going to get our milkshakes refill, you want to refill yours?"
Gumball answered "No thanks, Darwin."
Darwin and Anais both grab their empty milkshakes and goes to the counter, leaving Gumball and Penny alone in the booth.
Penny said "Must be great to have Darwin and Anais on your side."
Gumball replied "Well, they're okay, but-"
"But what?"
"Its just that my siblings are always seem to climb on top before me. Anais got the best grades in her class and Darwin always set a world record and breaking them at his swimming practice. Not only that, my family always talk about how they're good at everything."
Penny said "Well, it's not like my family. You know the details, my dad always hate you for being around me and such. My mom always plan food on the table and we wait for him to come home before we eat. My little sister is not the typical genius than your sister, and my cousin, well, is just my cousin. The thing about your family and my family is that you're always involve in dangerous adventures, while my family sit around here like a boring average family and my dad being threatened-"
Gumball stopped "Wait, threatened?"
Penny gasped as she covers her mouth "Oh, shit. You weren't suppose to know that."
"What do you mean threatened?"
"Forget about what I said."
"Penny, I'm your friend. You can trust me."
Penny sighed "Okay, but you can tell anyone about this. Lately, my dad has been involve with one customer. I think he's name is Demon. Anyway, Demon and his gang try to settle with my dad of building a warehouse for their operations. However, my dad knew too much and threatened him if he tells anyone. He has been going to the police, but every where he went, he sees one of Demon's goons on a street and looking at him."
Gumball said "Sounds like you're dad's in trouble."
"Yeah. Sometimes, I wish that someone out there in the city can see this and stop them."
Gumball guessed "Like Warrior-Cat?"
"Yeah, like Warrior-Cat."
Flashback Ended
Well, Penny, your answers is about to be praise. Thought Gumball as Warrior-Cat.
I found out where this Demon guy might be after a ran in with one of his guys. I follow him on an apartment.
Warrior-Cat enter a building and goes to the fifth floor. He walk the hallways and saw a giant rat standing at a door. The rat notice Warrior-Cat coming and remarked "Hey, asshole, Halloween isn't for another few months."
Warrior-Cat said "I came here for Demon. Are you Demon?"
The giant ran shouted "Fuck no! I'm his cousin! Demon's inside, but I won't let you come near him."
"I need to talk to him about something."
"Your funeral, man."
The rat step aside and Warrior-Cat enter the room. The room was fill with seven people; six large and deathly rats and one skinny rat woman. They were doing drugs and meth. The two people, the male rat and the female rat, were at a couch. Warrior-Cat notice that the t.v was on and were filled graphical games. They stopped and turn to Warrior-Cat, except for the rat who was playing video games.
Warrior-Cat started nervously "I-I'm here to see Demon."
One of the gang asked "Are you here for the girl? Maria here needed a massage, isn't that right, Maria?"
The woman with the gigantic breasts said with a seductive tone "I'm Maria. Are you here to massage my tits?"
Warrior-Cat began to get lost at the huge breasts he was seeing, but shake it off, regaining his focus. "I say, I'm here to see Demon."
The male rat, who was still playing video games, replied "Get the fuck out of here."
"Well, listen, I have a message from a girl of her father you know. Penny Fitzgerald."
The man stop playing his game and raise up from his couch. "Oliver's daughter?"
Warrior-Cat nodded nervously "Y-Yeah. S-So you're Demon?"
The entire gang of Demon begin to walk slowly on Warrior-Cat.
"L-Listen, she told me of what you guys been doing to her dad, and I'm telling you to stop."
Demon asked rudely as he walk to him "The fuck you say, homo?"
"You heard me. Leave Penny's dad alone or I'll break your fucking neck!"
Demon walk to him, then Warrior-Cat took out his taser gun and launch it on Demon's rat face. He scream as the electricity was coursing through his body, scaring Maria. Two of Demon's goons both grab Warrior-Cat's arms while Demon feels his face burning up from the taser gun.
He shouted "Motherfucker taser me!"
Demon took out a huge knife from his back and declared "I'm going to end that asshole by cutting out his bal-"
Before he finish, something from his back hit him like three times. The rat leader falls down on his back, revealing three ninja starts on his back. But that wasn't all. There were two teenager, the same age as Gumball, appear to them out of nowhere. They were both wearing a white Japanese kimono with a white mask that covers around their eyes. One was holding a large katana, and the other with ninja stars.
Warrior-Cat said in shock "What...the...fuck?"
The teenage boy asked "All right, assholes. Which one of you guys will be second on our list?"
Looks like Gumball just got trouble during his mission, then the two masked heroes that Gumball had heard just came in time. Who are they?
