Well, I do have to say that I appreciate all the support of my readers. Thanks a bunch guys. Also, I am currently planning my next fanfic.

You know what? I'm not even gonna say that I don't own the Amazing World of Gumball. Oh dag nabit!

"Carrie? Penny? What's going on here?" Nicole asked as she made her way up the stairs.

"Thank god you're here! Look Mrs. Watterson, there is no time to explain, we have to get out of here!" Penny stated as she and Carrie were still holding the door.

"What? Where is Gumball and Darwin? And why are you leaning on a door? And why are you… eh… bleeding Carrie?" Nicole asked.

Suddenly, the door burst open, knocking the two girls down. Nicole saw Darwin, though he had red eyes instead.

"Darwin?" Nicole asked.

"Why, it looks like the mother came to sort things out." He said with a dark twisted voice.

"Darwin, what happened to your voice?" Nicole asked as the two girls came over too her.

"Why, you obviously don't know me. Nicole Watterson, I am the person who will be putting an end to your misery." He said.

Carrie and Penny dragged Nicole back as Darwin was about to hit her with a large book. Nicole looked on with her horror as one of her children was now this… thing.

The trio were about to exit the mansion, but the door slammed shut.

"HAH, your only escape has now been blocked. What now?" He said.

Penny tried to open the door, but it seemed as if it was glued shut.

"What happened to my son you monster!" Nicole yelled at Darwin.

"Your son is perfectly fine, I am just borrowing his body." Darwin said.

Nicole felt enraged at this ghost that was hurting her babies. Without warning, she then ran towards him and pinned him on the ground.

"I swear on everything that I have ever done and ever believed in, you will not hurt my baby!" She said as she used all her force to keep him down. She wanted to punch this being. She wanted to get her boy back, but she knew it would only hurt Darwin and not this monster.

"Carrie, does that book have anything we can do to get him out of Darwin?" Penny asked.

"Give me a second." Carrie said as she flipped through the book.

"Can't you get the ghost out manually?" Penny asked.

"He was too strong in Gumball, I don't think this will be any different." Carrie said.

Nicole was still pinning him down on the ground. Suddenly, Darwin's eyes changed as he stared at Nicole.

"Mom?" He asked.

"Darwin?" Nicole said.

Nicole slowly let go of him as he got up. He looked very happy to see her that he ran towards her arms. Nicole hugged Darwin, nearly crushing him to death.

"I told you to call me. I knew this was a bad idea! Where's Gumball?" Nicole said.

"Look, we can explain everything later, but right now we have to get out of here." Carrie said.

"The front door is shut, how are we supposed to get out?" Penny asked.

"Maybe there's another way out." Carrie suggested.

"Look, I am getting you kids out here, but I need to know now, where is Gumball!?" Nicole asked.

"Mrs. Mom, Gumball is, um…" He began.

"Look, Mrs. Watterson, I swear we will tell you what happened, but right now, we really need to find a way out." Penny said.

"Look, for the last time, I will help you guys out, but I have to know, what happened to Gum…" She began as Darwin finally told her.

"He's dead. He's dead ok! We tried to save him. But the ghost killed him. He possessed him and committed suicide with an axe. Mrs. Mom, he's dead. And the others too. There were six more. They are all dead too. They were all killed!" Darwin said while crying in Nicole's arms.

"Gumball's dead?" Nicole asked. She turned towards Penny and Carrie, who were looking down in sorrow.

Nicole's eyes started to water. She realized that one of her sons was dead. She couldn't believe it, but yet, how could these kids lie. She then fell to her knees. She was about to start sobbing when she realized that another one of her sons was right in her arms. She knew she had to save these kids. With a lot of willpower, she held back her tears and looked determined to find a way out of there.

"Look, we should find a way out of here. I see there are a bunch of doors. Are there any that you guys didn't go through?" Nicole asked while standing up and holding Darwin, her face still showing a sign of anguish and sorrow.

"That door up there in front of the stairs." Carrie said.

"But that's the last place where Carmen… you know." Penny said.

"Well, is there any other place that could be an opening?" Nicole asked.

Nobody had an answer.

"So we head there. It could lead to the roof, which we might be able to get out from." Nicole suggested.

So the four went up the stairs, trying not to tumble in the darkness. They reached the door and Nicole grabbed the handle. She pulled with little to no force and it opened up.

"That's strange. Before, it felt like it was glued shut." Penny said.

The four then entered the door. The found themselves in the master bedroom that Carmen had recently been in.

They looked in the room, nothing really catching their eye until they saw a staircase.

"That could lead to the roof!" Darwin said.

"Well then, let's go. I'll take front. You kids stay behind me. If you see anything, tell me." She said, taking charge. She was determined to save them.

They executed their plan, with Nicole first and Carrie last, still holding on to the book. They made their way up the stairs. It led up, then stopped and went left, then went left again, before reaching a doorway. Along the way, it seemed to get darker and darker. Nicole, fumbling around in the dark, slowly turned the doorknob as she led the way inside. They were inside a big room. There was nothing in it. The walls were a creamish color. The floor was made of wood. All there was in there were curtains for plenty of windows.

"Windows! We can finally get out of here!" Darwin said.

"Darwin, we are on the third floor, how are we supposed to get down without hurting ourselves?" Penny asked.

"We can tie the curtains!" Carrie suggested.

"So then, start taking them down." Nicole said.

The four then commenced work. They yanked curtains off and started to tie them up together in the ends. They soon formed a 25 foot long curtain rope.

"Wow, that seemed like it took less than expected." Penny said.

Darwin then went towards a window and opened it up.

Outside, it was raining and stars illuminated the sky. He breathed in some fresh air.

"Finally we can get out of here!" Darwin said.

They threw down the rope, holding on to one end as the other hit the ground.

"Alright, who is first down?" Nicole asked.

"I'll just float down there and make sure to help anybody on their way down." Carrie said as she flew out the window.

"Ok, so I'll go next." Darwin said. He grabbed onto the curtains and carefully made his way out the window. He then slowly climbed down.

"Alright Penny, it's your turn." Nicole said.

"No, you go first Mrs. Watterson, I feel like I might fall, and I think you'll be strong enough to catch me." She said.

"Well, ok then." Nicole said as she grabbed the curtain and slowly made her way down.

Penny was about to grab on and get out to, but she felt like something grabbed her leg. She turned around to see Gumball holding onto her foot, only it wasn't Gumball.

"You didn't think I would let you get away that easy!" He said.

He then pulled her foot causing her to go off balance. The curtain fell over the window sill as the others saw it fall.

"What's happening?" Nicole asked.

Carrie immediately gave the book to Darwin and flew up inside as she saw Penny's predicament.

The possessed corpse of Gumball was dragging Penny down and in the door. Carrie flew towards her and grabbed a hold of her arms. She tried to pull her free, but Gumball was too strong.

"Let me go, he's just going to use my body to escape and start killing the people of Elmore. Get out, shut the window, and do the curse. My time is over!" Penny said.

"I am not letting go of you!" Carrie said.

"Carrie, the needs of the many surpass the needs of the few. You have to go and do the curse so that nobody else in Elmore will be hurt. Please. I don't want my family to die." She said.

"Well I don't want you to die!" Carrie said, using up all of her strength.

"Don't worry, I will be ok." She said.

At that instant, Carrie lost her grip as Penny was dragged inside the doorway. The door slammed shut. Carrie tried to open it, but it wouldn't budge. She wanted to help Penny, but she knew that we Penny said was right. It had to be done. She flew out the window and closed the window. She made her way back down and grabbed the book from Darwin, who asked her a lot of questions.

"Carrie, what happened to Penny? Where is she?" He asked.

Carrie had to ignore him for now as she opened the book to the page of the curse. Nicole and Darwin looked on as Carrie began to chant out in some different language. As she began however, Nicole and Darwin noticed that the door was opening, showing what looked like Penny to get out, but her eyes were red.

Carrie stopped in mid chant.

"Guys, go and close the door and keep it shut, we can't let that thing leave in Penny's body." Carrie said.

"But we have to help her!" Darwin said.

"Just do it! Penny sacrificed herself already. Just do it, for her sake." Carrie said as she continued the chant. Both Nicole and Darwin ran up to the door and slammed it shut. The force behind the door was incredible. Darwin's strength dwindled and Nicole was losing hers at the same time.

Carrie continued the chant that seemed to emanate a green mist. It soon enveloped the entire mansion. Nicole and Darwin were still keeping the door shut, but they were losing their strength fast.

Carrie's voice started to grow louder and louder. The mansion then began to glow green as Nicole and Darwin fell and passed out with exhaustion. Carrie looked on in horror as the door opened with the possessed Penny about to take a step outside, but the mansion then burst with a greenish glow, unleashing a huge gust of wind. The front door slammed shut. There was a large banging on the inside of it, followed by a dark and twisted voice.

"I WILL GET OUT OF HERE. MORE OF YOUR FRIENDS WILL DIE! MARK MY WORDS!" It said.

Carrie knew that this would never happen. The curse would not only keep him out, but it was impossible to go in. Carrie tested this by flying up and attempting to open all the windows, but they felt as if they were glued shut, and even she couldn't fly through the walls.

She came back down to find Darwin and Nicole awake.

Nicole was on her knees. Her eyes started to water as she let the thought of her son dying set in. She couldn't live on. She was saddened deeply and didn't want to move. She broke down right there in a burst if tears. Darwin leaned on her and began to do the same. They were both full of sorrow and depression as they kept weeping for their lost family member.

Carrie went somewhere else however. She flew over to a cliff that was near the mansion. She realized that she lost a lot of friends. She looked at the book, realizing that it was the key to letting that monster free. It was the key to unleash pure hell throughout Elmore. She then looked back at the large drop below her. Using all of her strength, she lobbed the book over the cliff. She saw it land in a large lake. It sank down under the surface. She floated away from the cliff.

The book sank all the way down into the lake. It landed on the underwater surface. The book started to dissolve in the water from being very old and fragile. The pages dissolving completely. All the unknown knowledge, whisked away by the water.

The rain came down much louder. Lighting struck down, thunder following in its wake. The night was one that Nicole, Darwin, and Carrie would never forget. The night that one Halloween Party became a murderous nightmare.
