Chapter 28.

The Phantom Terror.

Everyone looked at Gerald in Confusion and Sat around the Hideout Pondering the Questions and their Strange Answers.

Gregory paced the Room back and forth. "I don't get it… This is impossible…. How could Mr. Brovflowski claim to have gone to Washington when he has done no such thing? This doesn't make sense?"

"What could any of this mean?" Asked the Mole.

"What if it's some kind of Code? FUCKFACE!" Asked Thomas.

"Or perhaps A trick from Skankhunts mind." Suggested Kelly.

"The Machine can't be tricked." Insisted Estella.

"She's right." Said, Mark. "If these are Gerald's thoughts then they must mean something."

"But what?" Asked Gregory.

Stan, Heidi, Cartman, Ike, and Kenny had been to the side the entire time, Stan looked back at Gerald who was still Stapped to the Chair connected to the Truth Machine.

Stan thought for a moment then, Against his better judgment, He walked over to Geralds chair, Gerald looked at him. "What?"

"What's going on with you?" Asked Stan.

"What do you mean?" Asked Gerald. "I wasn't in Washington."

"Then what's the Machine telling us?" Asked Stan.

"How should I know?" Asked Gerald defensively.

"What if a part of his Consciousness is at Washington D.C.?" Asked Gary.

"That, Is a likely possibility."Said Marcus Preston thoughtfully. "Perhaps we should try and see."

"Agreed." Said Gregory.

The kids turned back to the Machine and Switched it on.

"Computer." Said, Mark. "How is Gerald here and in Washington at the same time?"

The Phantom.

"The Phantom?" Asked Heidi.

Everyone looked at each other Before Mark made his next Question.

"What is… The Phantom?" He asked.

The Truth Machine didn't answer, Instead, Its screen started to flash things, Diagrams, Schematics, Formulas, and Images.

"What's happening?" Asked Cartman.

Estella stepped up to the Screen. "It's… Showing us." She said.

The Flashing Continued, More Images began to flash.

"What does this all mean?" Asked Tammy.

"It could Take Weeks to decipher it all." Said Marcus Preston.

"Uh… I don't think I like this…" Murmured Gerald.

The Truth Machine continued to Flash the Strange information over and over.

"I think we should shut this off." Said Gregory, Mark pressed the off button but nothing happened.

"It won't let me." He said.

"Gerald." Asked Stan. "What is the Phantom?"

At this, The lights suddenly blacked out, Than slowly the lights turned back on, The formulas flashing resumed like before, BUt this time, Online Advertisements started to be flashed, Gerald was starting to lose consciences,

"What's he doing?" Asked Rebecca.

"He's… Popping up Ads?" Said, Mark.

"Where did the Ads come from?" Asked Briden.

Kenny then rushed to the Outlet the Truth Machine was hooked up to and Struggled to Yank it out, He tumbled back with a jerk, The Plugin his hand, The Machine was shut off and Gerald stopped fidgeting.

"Well… That's over with." He sighed, Everyone, breathed a sigh of relief.

Then the Machine suddenly turned back on Inexplicatly and Gerald shuddered violently again.

"Uh… Kenny?" Asked Stan, Everyone started to back away slowly, As they did, Several red Ads began to shrink and form together into big Red eyes.

"Mr. Brofvlowski?" Asked Cartman. "Is that the Phantom?"

"Yes." Said a voice.

And the Truth Machine suddenly blew to Bits! Pieces of Shrapnel and Sparks went everywhere! The Kids held their Arms up or jumped back, Gerald went limp, When the dust cleared the kids all looked, The Truth Machine was Completely destroyed.

"Well, that leaves a dent." Muttered Estella.

"What the Hell was that?!" Asked Cartman.

"I… I don't know." Siad Gregory. "I really don't know."

Clara sat in her office, Well actually the Mayor Office but you get the Idea, Rubbing her temples together, They said it would be easy to take over this town, Yet so far everything was going downhill… All thanks to that Retarded Dad and his Son's Ex! For they had tried to help him and Skankhunt escape! Then they freed every almost every adult they had and now they had dared to trespass again! Well, at least hist time they almost got us the President.

As she brooded, A knock came at her door.

"Enter." She said, And Nathan and Mimsy entered the Room.

"Excuse me, Ma'am." Siad Nathan. "But you have a call."

Clara turned around. "From who?"

"I think you might know." Said Nathan, As Mimsy placed a laptop on the Table, Clara opened it and turned it on, To Reveal Leslie Meyers on the other end.

"Mrs. Fentazvitz." She said. "You're recent Progress has bean sloppy."

"My Apologies Ma'am." Said Clara. "But rest assured, We will retrieve the Adults."

"That can wait, There are much bigger priorities to attend." Said, Leslie. "You have new Targets, Randy Marsh, Wendy Testaburger, and President Herbert Garrison, They are beginning to pose a threat to the Design, You must find them and eliminate them."

"As you wish." Said Clara. "And what of Brovflowski?"

"He will believe he is safe for now." Siad Leslie. "The Adnet has further plans for him, Aswell as the Irrelevents, Your Targets are Randy Marsh and Wendy Testaburger."

"I shall accomplice this task as you wish." Said Clara with a bow.

"Good." Said, Leslie. "I might be able to lend some helping hands or Perhaps, Our Rivals shall do it for us..."
