Chapter 16: Keeping Evil at Bay
E.P.D (Elmore Police Department)
"Man I'm hungry." Officer one said
"How about we gets some coffee and doughnuts." Officer two to said them. Doughnut Sheriff glared at officer two. "Uh did I say Doughnuts I mean Subways, let's go get some subways."
The conversation was interrupted when a damage Mega Cat enter the police department while dragging the unconscious Dr. Brown. Everyone look at him while he walked towards to Doughnut Sheriff and drop Dr. Brown in front of him.
"Here's Dr. Brown." Mega Cat said to Doughnut Sheriff.
Mega Cat starts leaving this place. But before he step outside Doughnut Sheriff Call him out.
"Wait Mega Cat. What about Dr. Simian?"
"She got away." Mega Cat said exiting out
Three Days Later…
Mega Cat felt so empty inside that he lock himself into his room at Watterson labs staring into space. His family and friends wants to try to cheer him up but he wants to be alone. Dr. Simian had escaped with two very dangerous allies and he had no idea where to start looking. The fighting would surly start again and once more innocent lives would be at risk. As he continue stare in blank, he heard a knock from his door.
"I told you I'm not coming out!"
"Gumball it's me, Carrie."
"Oh, but still I'm not coming out."
"Come on Gumball you've been inside your room for three days. Can you please come out so we can talk?"
"No!"
*Sigh* if you're not coming out then I guess I'll just have to come in and make you come out."
"Good luck with that because I lock the door so there is no way you could-" Gumball was debunked when Carrie phased through the door into his room.
"I should have seen that one coming." Gumball said to himself. "Look I'm sorry but I'm not in the mood to talk."
"I understand but I also understand the talking about it is the only way you'll feel better."
*Sigh* okay fine…it's…it was all in vain. Simian is out there and she is going to try again."
"Yeah she will. But think of all the people you saved this time. Countless people would have died if you hadn't been there. It made a great deal of difference and was most certainly not in vain."
"But Carrie…I had her. I could have finish her when I had the chance…but I couldn't."
Carrie sighed deeply and said "If you had killed Dr. Simian would have been any better than her and her kind? Also it would not have been the end of anything. Dr. Simian is only one woman and there are any number of misguided people ready to take her place. All we can do is keep fighting and hope to keep evil at bay."
Gumball was speechless but Carrie smiled. "Oh and um here your mother told me to hand this to you." She handed Gumball a package which turned out to contain several cards and letters. One was signed by all the victims that were being torment from Millie and another was signed by a group of people Mega Cat had saved the Savage Woods. Ben's name was the biggest.
"When did this come?" Mega Cat asked quietly.
"Just now; this was with it." She laid down a yellow scarf and Mega Cat couldn't help but smile. Her loner twin sister could comfort him without even showing up in person.
"Thank you Lexy and especially you Carrie. I forgot what was truly important."
"It happens to the best of us."
Gumball nodded and hug her for being a true friend. Carrie was surprise at first but then she hug him back. After a few moments they look of each other with a blush on their cheeks.
"Well um…are you ready to come out?" Carrie asked Gumball while blushing
"Uh yeah I'm ready." Gumball answered her while blushing.
Gumball got up from his bed and unlock his door. As they got out of his room, his family rush in to see Gumball out of his room.
"You feeling okay Gumball?" Dr. Watterson asked Gumball
"Actually mom I feel more than okay. I feel fantastic because Simian had better be ready because when she strikes again I'll be there to stop her but I won't be doing alone you guys will be on my side. As long we can fight we'll be in front lines opposing the forces of evil."
