Chapter 9: Fights, Pain, and Gain!

~ (On a hill outside of South Park)

"This is what you wanted to show me?" Kyle asked looking up at the sky on top of a hill in the middle of the South Park woods.

"Not necessarily yet. What I want to show you is at night" Cartman replied.

"We're going to sit out here till nightfall?" Kyle asked in a bored tone.

"No we're going to have a picnic till night" Cartman responded as Kenny took out their specially prepared lunch basket.

"Well I guess a picnic sounds like a good idea" Kyle said as he crawled a bit closer to the other two.

"I invited Stan this morning but I don't think he'll get the message or even want to read it if he did" Cartman said as he started taking things out of the basket.

"By the way Cartman… what's up with you?" Kyle asked as he took a sandwich for himself.

"What are you talking about?" Cartman asked.

"You haven't sworn yet and you're being nice to us" Kyle responded. Cartman shrugs taking a bite of his sandwich.

"I don't know. Just feels right" Cartman replied sighing.

"It's pretty creepy if you ask me" Kyle said as he took his own bite of his sandwich. Kenny watched them as they were talking while he just ate what he could.

"Well you know what else is creepy Kahl? What about the fact you're adopting a critical attitude?" Cartman stated with a glare.

"What are you talking about? I'm not critical!" Kyle stated angrily.

"Yes you are! Allow me to give you an example. That time Kennih baked that cake for Karen's birthday. You made fun of that cake right to Stan when he was still normal! Kennih was miserable for weeks!" Cartman shouted. Kenny piped up as the conversation turned to him.

"Well maybe I am a little critical but that doesn't mean I've changed!" Kyle replied.

"Yes I'm pretty sure it does" Cartman mocked as he took another bite.

"No it doesn't fatass. Besides Kenny only baked that cake for 3 hours. Not like his whole life went down the drain" Kyle angrily stated crossing his arms over his chest.

"You made his dreams crash down the drain you heartless dickhole!" Cartman shouted. Kyle scoffed.

"Me a heartless dickhole? Says the kid who made a teen eat his own parents!" Kyle responded.

"I may have been psychotic in the past, but at least I'm good enough to admit what I am and what I've become!" Cartman yelled.

"You aren't good enough for anything! Sure you might have gained a quarter of a soul in the short while lately, but that doesn't make up for all the crimes you've committed over your life! Face it Cartman you're a spoiled vain kid who has everything! Why don't you try living like the rest of us!" Kyle vented out. Kenny stared in shock at Kyle for such an outburst. Cartman remained looking down.

A few awkward moments pass by as Kyle calms down. Kyle and Kenny looked towards Cartman when a shuffle admits. Then Cartman returned his attention upwards to him. His eyes were evident with tears and some seem to have already started trailing down his face.

"I may have everything my mom gives me. I may have committed crimes I don't regret. I may be vain. I may not live the same way the rest of you do" Cartman started then shook his head while he wiped his tears. He looked Kyle straight in the eyes as more tears filled his eyes still.

"But I still have feelings…." Cartman stated then he turned walking off into the woods behind them. Kyle and Kenny stared for a while after he left.

Kenny then stood up and put everything away into the basket. Then he turned his attention to Kyle. "I knew this would happen" Kenny stated to Kyle.

"What you knew he was going to walk off crying?" Kyle asked.

"No I didn't expect the crying at least…" Kenny responded.

"Then what did you expect?" Kyle asked.

"For someone to not understand him. All Cartman needs is someone to understand him…" Kenny muttered as he took the basket and started off towards home. Kyle quickly followed him.

"Shouldn't we go get him?" Kyle asked.

"No. Not yet. We'll let him blow off some steam from that fight. He'll be alright" Kenny replied.

"If you say so…" Kyle muttered as he looked down putting his hands into his pockets.

Vivian: What do you guys think? Do you think Cartman's this way because no one understands him? I mean look at the facts. He's rejected in school by peers. Kyle and Stan much less hate him. Kenny's more the avoider. His mom is the only one who pays any real attention and she's a crack induced whore! :I I think that's the reason Cartman's so mean and resentful.

THIS IS THE STORY OF FUTURE REFERENCE! (PLEASE READ IF ANYTHING ELSE!)

Backstory for this story: Liane is a hemorphodite, but she can get pregnant. She did not receive little Eric till he was 5 years old. A woman named Anne Triumph is Cartman's birth mother. Anne was resentful and negative of Eric. She wanted nothing to do with him. She beat him for three years so he's afraid of anyone getting too close. He doesn't believe in true love. After his 5th birthday, Anne decided she was done with kids. She sent Eric off in a box addressed to a little town known as South Park, Colorado. The box arrived and was sent to Liane's doorstep with a note. Liane read this note~

Dear Liane,

I cannot stand raising our kid anymore. Yes I know shocking news we have a child together. His name is Eric. Give him whatever you want, I sure as hell am not anymore. Have a fun time raising the little bastard!

From, Anne Triumph

Thus Liane took Eric into her care.

Future note: Anne is arriving in South Park again, but at what cost this time? XD
