It was nighttime in Animation Acres, and as usual, everybody was fast asleep. All nice and cozy, a sleeping town under the stars of a bright, shiny, blue night. Nobody could be disturbed this night...well...not everybody.

RIIIIIIING!!!!! RIIIIIIIIIIING!!!!!!

Cartman, fast asleep was stirring in his bed. It has been two weeks of listening to that strange sound at night.

RIIIIIIIING!!!!! RIIIIIIIIING!!!!

Cartman groaned and put his pillow over his head. Where is that stupid, STUPID sound?!!!, Cartman thought to himself. 

Suddenly, Cartman's door burst open.

"WHAAAAAT?!!!" Cartman stood up, frustrated and angry.

"It's alright, brother!" Cartman recognized SpongeBob's voice. "It's only me!"

Cartman grew more annoyed than ever. If there was anything he felt he didn't need right now with all the noise in the night, it was his step-brother.

"Ugh, what is it?!" Cartman climbed down from the bed and looked at his alarm clock. "It's 4:01! What gives?" He then got a closer look at his step-brother. SpongeBob was wearing a blue wizard hat, a wand, a fake white beard, jingly cape. "And...why do you look like Gandalf fused with Elton John?"

"Huh?" SpongeBob then looked at his costume. "Oh! This is my wizard costume! You know, for that magic convention I'm going to! That's why I'm leaving early so I don't miss anything!"

"Oh, right." Cartman realized, rubbing his eyes. "Why are you going to that, again?"

"Well, I've been really getting into magic, especially with Ms. Sparkle being an expert at it!" SpongeBob spoke. "In fact, she even helped make this costume for me!"

"Hmph," Cartman snickered. "Next thing you'll know, you'll be her apprentice or something."

SpongeBob thought for a second, not getting Cartman's sarcasm. "You know, that doesn't sound like a bad idea! You think I could?"

Cartman raised an eyebrow. "...Sure."

"Alright then!" SpongeBob grinned. "Well, I just wanted to say so long! What are you doing today?"

"Uh...just stuff." Cartman spoke as he got back into bed.

"What kinda stuff?" SpongeBob asked.

"It's just stuff!" Cartman snapped. "Now, leave me alone! I gotta get to sleep!"

SpongeBob looked confused but shrugged it off. "Okay! Well, I gotta get going! See ya, tomorrow night!"

As SpongeBob exited, Cartman tried to get back to sleep again.

RIIIIIIIIIIIING!!!!! RIIIIIIIIIIING!!!!!!!!

Cartman growled. "I'll take care of THAT, tomorrow for good..."





Riiiing!!!! Riiiiiing!!!!!

Pinkie was resting on the purple couch of her home the next day, when she was woken up by her shaking tail, ringing like a telephone. Once she put it to her ear, it stopped ringing.

"Hello?" Pinkie Pie talked on her tail. "Oh, hi, Eric!...What's that?...You're coming over?" Pinkie walked over to her window. "...Oh, I DO love a good woodland adventure!...Okay, see you soon!" Once Pinkie hung up on her phone, she poked her head out the window, looking at the big blue, cloudless sky. "It sure is a nice day to do something fun!"

All of a sudden, Pinkie heard some snickering. Her eyes went wide open, as she quickly turned her head around...Nothing...she then slowly began walking towards the couch, her eyes darting to every corner. She then leaped under the sofa table.

"Aaaaa-ha! Surprise!"

Pinkie then took notice that nothing was under the sofa table.

"Huh," Pinkie shrugged. "...I guess not today!"

Pinkie then hopped on the blue couch, waiting for Cartman's arrival. But then, Pinkie realized something.

"Wait a minute," Pinkie raised an eyebrow. "This couch was always purple."

"Are you sure about that?" The blue couch asked.

"I'm pretty sure," Pinkie answered. "I mean, I could've swore-"

Pinkie's eyes widened as she turned and saw the blue couch had eyes, a nose and a wild, big toothy smile.

"Surprise!"

Pinkie yelped as she hopped off of the couch, but she then broke into a laughing fit.

The couch then morphed into Pinkie's blue, big brother, Genie.

"Hey, Pinkie!" Genie grinned. "I sure surprised you, didn't I?"

"You sure beat me to it!" Pinkie laughed.

"Aw, come here, you!" Genie laughed as he pulled his little sister in for a noogie, as they both laughed.

"Uh...what's going on?" Pinkie and Genie both looked down and noticed Cartman in their house.

"Oh, hi Eric!" Pinkie hopped down. "Me and Genie were just doing our special game where we surprise each other! And my brother just scored a big one!"

"Come on, Pinkie! Give me some hoof!" Genie reach his hand out.

"Only if you give me some hand!" Pinkie then reached her hoof out as she and Genie began doing a silly handshake.

"Uh...okay," Cartman raised an eyebrow. "So, are you ready to get going?"

"Oh, yeah! Sure!" Pinkie nodded.

"Oh, where are you two headed off to?" Genie poofed between Pinkie and Cartman.

"Uh...well, we're going exploring in the Brisby Forest." Cartman spoke.

"Ah, nothing like a good stroll on a nice, warm day." Genie then poofed into some kind of model as he walked around Cartman, as Pinkie tried her best not to giggle. "But I must say, that coat and hat do not match the scenery, this does not, repeat not meet the fall feeling,"

"I-I'm always cold," Cartman muttered.

"Well, we better get going!" Pinkie then put on a blue saddlebag and walked out the door with Cartman. "See ya, Genie!"

"Remember," Genie then poofed a brown cloak on himself as he called to Pinkie. "To use the force, dear sister. Use the force, the farce! Tell a joke!"





Later, Pinkie and Cartman were walking through the Brisby Forest.

"So, when exactly do you hear this sound?" Pinkie asked Cartman.

"I've been hearing it all night for the last few weeks!" Cartman spoke.

All of a sudden, a loud thumping was heard as Cartman jumped in surprise.

"That sound?" Pinkie pointed to a rabbit sitting on a rock who started thumping his foot on it.

"No, not that." Cartman grumbled as the rabbit hopped away. "But I sometimes see him around thumping his stupid foot..."

RIIIIIIIING!!!!! RIIIIIIIIIING!!!!!!

"Gah!" Cartman pulled his hat over his head. "There it is! There it is! That stupid ringing! Where is it?!"

Pinkie looked around both ways, but then, something went in Pinkie's head that made her grin.

RIIIIIIING!!!! RIIIIIIIIIING!!!!!

 "It's gotta be around here somewhere!" Cartman snapped.

 "Well, maybe it's not around here!" Pinkie hopped around Cartman.

 "Huh?" Cartman asked with his voice cracking in stress.

 "Maybe it's...down there." Pinkie pointed to the grass.

 Cartman leaned down to the grass. "What are you-?" Cartman started.

RIIIIIING!!!!! RIIIIIIIIING!!!!!

 Cartman jumped back by the ringing sound. "Yep, it's down there." Cartman groaned. "But how do we get down there?"

 "Leave it to me!" Pinkie then shaped her hair to look like a drill. Pinkie then put Cartman on her back and jumped in the air.

"Hold on!" Pinkie then dove down into the ground, drilling her way through it and underground.

 A few minutes have passed, and Pinkie was still drilling away.

 "How far are we?" Cartman asked impatiently.

 "We're almost there!" Pinkie spoke. "Soon it will be flashing before our eyes!"

 Suddenly, a bright light shined in their view.

Pinkie's eyes widened. "What is it?"

 RIIIING!!!! RIIIIIIING!!!!

 "GAH!!" Cartman growled. "It's some kind of phone someone put down here!" He then hopped off Pinkie's back, grumbling under his breath. "I'll teach them to..."

 As Pinkie watched Cartman walk towards the phone, something else flashed in her head.

 "Wait..." Pinkie muttered as she looked a bit closer, seeing that the telephone in the distance was solid gold. "...That phone...it looks familiar!"

 Pinkie then accidentally bumped her face into the side of a wall. Once Pinkie shook off the dust and dirt, she looked up saw something that made her jump in fear.

 On the wall was a painting of some kind of horrific creature. It had the head of a horse, and his body was mixed up with all sorts of different animal parts. Pinke got a closer look, and all around the creature were citizens that looked like they were suffering. And Pinkie could tell on the creature's devilish grin, as if he was having so much fun causing misery. She then looked more closely on the painting and saw the creature zapping some kind of...golden telephone. Pinkie instantly turned back to Cartman who was getting closer to grabbing the phone.

 "ERIC!! NO!!!!" Pinkie immediately ran up to Cartman and tackled him to the ground.

"Wha-!...Pinkie!" Cartman struggled to get back up. "What are you doing?!"

 "Stopping you from making a humongous mistake!" Pinkie spoke quickly.

"Hey, relax, Pinkie!" Cartman said, finally smiling. "Did you see that phone? It's golden! We could be rich from this thing!"

RIIIING!!!! RIIIIING!!!!

Cartman cringed at the sound. "I'll cross that certain bridge when I come to it," Cartman forced a smirk.

 "But that's no ordinary phone Eric...This phone," Pinkie pointed to the telephone. "...Is 'The Phone Of Discord'!"

 Cartman looked confused. "The Phone Of Discord?"

"Yeah!" Pinkie spoke frantically. "It was cursed by Discord, the all-powerful and evil spirit of chaos! He could change reality into what he wants with the snap of his finger!"

"How do you know all this?" Cartman asked.

"Me and Genie were once the genies of someone in the Discord days. Strange thing is, he didn't use his wishes to defeat him, he just wanted giant sandwiches. But anyway, before Discord was fully defeated by an all-powerful queen, he used the last of his magic to create a device that rung constantly throughout the land. Annoyed by the sound and afraid of anything Discord touched, they buried into the ground, hoping no one would ever find it...But now, we found it! And we gotta get rid of it as soon as...Eric?"

Pinkie noticed Cartman was no longer in front of her. She turned around and saw Cartman answering the phone.

"Hello? Hello?" Cartman spoke on the phone. "Hey, where's the wire on this thing?"

Pinkie gasped in horror as she swiped the phone from Cartman.

"Eric, look what you did!" Pinkie said frantically.

"What? I answered the phone!" Cartman said.

"Yeah, but answering the phone will cause Discord's power to slowly return and spread across the universe!" Pinkie put her hooves to her face in fear. "A finger-painting baboon told me and Genie that once!"

Cartman raised an eyebrow. "...A finger-painting baboon?"

"Yeah!" Pinkie said in fear. "What are we gonna do? We brought back the power of Discord!"

"Oh, come on." Cartman said, rolling his eyes. "I'm sure that's crazy talk. Were you there when that Discord guy was defeated?"

"I..." Pinkie started. "Well...no...the baboon mostly told us everything."

"Then there's nothing to worry about!" Cartman shrugged. "I'm sure this is just nothing but some crazy gibberish!"

THUD!!!

The underground shook from the sound of something dropping.

"What was that?" Pinkie asked as she and Cartman turned their heads to where it might've came from.

Suddenly, the two heard something rolling through the underground. They both turned around and shrieked as they saw a giant popcorn ball rolling towards them!

"Aagh! What the-?!" Cartman yelped.

"Hang on!" Pinkie immediately had Cartman on her back with the phone as she began running back the way she and Cartman came, up until they finally reached back up to top ground.

Pinkie and Cartman were both panting in relief. "Do you see what I'm talking about, Eric?" Pinkie spoke through breaths. "That phone is dangerous!"

"Oh...come on..." Cartman panted. "It's...it's just giant popcorn!...No biggie!..."

"It's no use!" Pinkie looked at the phone. "The chaos has been unleashed! With no way of us to-"

Pinkie's eyes suddenly widened when she noticed something strange about the phone. Pinkie was frowning, but her reflection on the phone was smiling! Pinkie raised her right eyebrow in confusion, but noticed her left eyebrow raising on the reflection! That didn't make any sense!...Wait...not making sense?...Something brightened in Pinkie's head as she grinned hugely and the reflection frowned hugely.

"That's it!" Pinkie hopped in the air. "Discord's magic is connected to the phone!"

"What are you talking about?" Cartman asked.

"If Discord's magic is connected to the phone, it must mean that is what's holding the last of his magic!" Pinkie grinned. "If we destroy the phone, we destroy Discord's chaos!"

"What? No way!" Cartman swiped the phone away.

"Eric, we have to!" Pinkie tried to reach for the phone. "If we don't, Chaos will corrupt the universe!"

"Like big popcorn balls?" Cartman said. "With something like that happening regularly, I think we're gonna be just fine."

"But that's nothing compared to what's gonna happen later!" Pinkie got Cartman's face. "Once the cotton candy clouds come...that...will be the end!"

Cartman was not phased by Pinkie's warnings, in fact, he was getting annoyed by them quickly. But suddenly, he had an idea.

"You know," Cartman smiled. "You're right, Pinkie. We should destroy this as soon as possible!"

"Really?" Pinkie grinned.

"Yeah!" Cartman said. "In fact, why don't we have a race back to town?"

"A race?" Pinkie asked, excitedly. "Oh my gosh! That sounds fun!"

"We're having plenty right now, trust me." Cartman and Pinkie got themselves positioned.

"Ready..."

"Set..."

"...Go!"

Pinkie then sped off like a rocket through the Brisby Forest, while Cartman simply stayed behind.

Once Pinkie was fully out of sight, Cartman laughed. "Yes, it worked!" He then turned to another path of the forest. "Now, for my own way back to town." As Cartman walked through the path, he didn't notice a few apples fall from a tree behind him...followed by a watermelon...and a pie...and an ostrich...





After a minute or two, Pinkie finally stopped to take a breath. 

"Hoo boy, Eric!" Pinkie turned around. "You better be catching up!"

There was silence. Cartman was nowhere to be found.

"...Eric?..." Pinkie called out. No reply.

Suddenly, Pinkie realized what happened. 

"Ooooh, no!" Pinkie slapped her forehead. "He tricked me! He's going to run off fancy with the phone!"

Pinkie then snorted as she turned back around. "Well, he'll be sorry. I'm gonna have someone take that phone from him whether he likes it or not!"

"Pinkie!"

Pinkie turned to the water and saw her reflection giving her a scowl look. "What's the matter with ya? You're not seriously leaving him with that work of destruction, are you?"

Pinkie looked down for a second. "W-well...it's his own fault! By the time I get help, he'll be begging for us to take the phone away!"

"But is it worth having Eric suffer a bit?" Pinkie's reflection frowned.

Pinkie rubbed her hooves together nervously. "...But...what I meant was..."

"Have you forgotten how horrible things were when Discord was around?" Pinkie's reflection spoke up.

Suddenly, memories of seeing what Discord did flashed in Pinkie's head, as voices started chanting.

Meanwhile, Cartman was walking through a field of flowers, still carrying the phone with him.

"Why did I have to take the shortcut to here?" Cartman hated the girly sight of flowers. He suddenly caught a whiff of their scent. "Then again, they do smell nice."

As Cartman took another smell, he took notice of something black and white in his face...it looked like some kind of tail..? Cartman looked down and saw what the black and white was attached to.

"SKUNK!!!" Cartman jumped back at the sight of the small creature, spooking it. As the skunk scurried away, Cartman noticed the smell he left behind...it wasn't horrifyingly stinky at all!...it was even pink!...it smelled almost like...

"Perfume?" Cartman raised an eyebrow. "Hmph, if this is the real 'Chaos' we have to worry about, then we're all done for!" He spoke sarcastically.

Thump-thump-thump-thump-thump-thump-thump-thump!

Cartman cringed, being startled by the strange sound. He turned and saw the familiar rabbit from before in the distance, thumping his foot.

"Oh, no! Not you again!" Cartman groaned. "Will you beat it?! That thumping is driving me crazy!"

The rabbit then hopped up, high into the air. Cartman looked up seeing how high he was. "Well, that's one way to do it," Cartman looked closely and saw the bunny getting closer, but somehow looking bigger...

"Huh?"

The rabbit then landed before Cartman, making the Earth tremble, causing Cartman to fall over. 

Cartman looked up and squeaked as he saw the rabbit before him was now a GIANT rabbit!

The rabbit didn't look angry, but the oblivious look he had made Cartman more frightened due to him not realizing he changed size.

"Uh..." Cartman chuckled nervously. "Hey...I was only kidding back there!...I...I-I liked your thumping! It was awesome!"

The rabbit raised his large foot and began thumping it on the ground, once again causing the Earth to rumble.

"Whoa!! I didn't mean now! I didn't mean no-o-o-o-o-o-ow!!!!" Cartman yelled as the giant thumping made him fall backwards and roll down the flowery hill.

Once Cartman stopped rolling, he looked up and saw a familiar face that made him groan.

"Eric!" Pinkie grinned. "I'm so glad I found you!"

"...Good to see you, too..." Cartman annoyingly grumbled.

Pinkie helped Cartman up to his feet. "You didn't get into any trouble with Discord's chaos did you?"

"Well, there was a ginormous bunny I ran into," Cartman dusted himself. "But other than that, nothing."

"Not that much...?" Pinkie asked.

"...Yeah...not that much..." Cartman nodded.

"Okay...good..." Pinkie nodded.

"...Yeah...good..." Cartman nodded back.

The two stood in silence.

"GIMMIE THAT PHONE!!!" Pinkie grabbed the phone and tried to pull it away.

"NO!!!" Cartman pulled back. Soon the two were found themselves in a tug of war.

"Eric, you don't understand! Chaos will corrupt the town!" Pinkie struggled.

Cartman yanked. "This chaos isn't deadly, what's the big deal?"

Pinkie pulled back the phone. "Our friends will be in danger! Think about SpongeBob!"

Cartman groaned as he pulled back. "What about him?"

"Well, he's your brother, silly!" Pinkie struggled. 

"He's NOT my brother!" Cartman snapped, holding onto the phone. "He's just my-" 

"SHEEP!" Pinkie screeched.

"My sheep?" Cartman turned around and raised an eyebrow.

"No, look out!" Pinkie pushed Cartman out of the way as a sheep landed on the ground.

Pinkie looked back at the sheep. "A sheep fell out of the sky!" The sheep then casually got up like nothing happened, and began to eat some of the flowers.

"...Why can't annoying stuff be a myth...?" Cartman grumbled, still on the ground.

All of a sudden, another sheep fell on the ground, casually got up and began eating flowers too. Then, another one did the same, and another, and another, and another!

"Where are all these sheep coming from?!" Pinkie asked.

Thunder started to rumble, startling Pinkie and Cartman. They suddenly heard the sound of 'baa-ing'. They both looked up and saw what was up in the sky...

"...It's raining sheep!" Pinkie said in shock. "RUN!!!"

Pinkie then put the speechless Cartman on her back as she began running from the raining sheep as fast as her hooves could carry her.

"Quick, Eric!" Pinkie looked over to her buddy. "We got a forecast of cute and fluffy but it ain't gonna be pretty!"

She tried her best to dodge as many sheep as she could, some almost made her fall and lose balance.

Once Pinkie and Cartman got back through the trees, Pinkie started to think.

"What are we gonna do?!" Cartman said in worry as he tried to dodge more sheep.

"I'm trying to think!" Pinkie out her hooves to her head. "Think-think-think-think!" An idea then lit up in Pinkie's head. "I know!"

Pinkie reached into her saddlebag and pulled out a lamp.

"This is the same lamp me and Genie used to live in!" Pinkie then tossed it up in the air as it's handle got on a high tree branch.

"Genie always said to use this for emergencies!" Pinkie held Cartman's hand. "Hang on!"

In a blue light, Pinkie and Cartman were magically sucked into the lamp. The raining sheep continued to happen for a couple minutes, until it finally decided to settle down and eventually stop.





"...Hey, what's going on?" Realization finally came to Cartman. "Where are we?" His voice stubbornly asked in the dark.

"...Well, remember the whole lamp thing I brought up?" Pinkie's voice nervously chuckled.

"...Wait, we're stuck here?! For a thousand years?!" Cartman's angry tone rose.

"No, we're not! We could get in and out anytime!" Pinkie's voice spoke. "Me and Genie are free, remember?"

"Oh, yeah, forgot about that." Cartman's voice said.

"...Yeah..." Pinkie said in agreement.

"...THEN GET ME OUTTA HERE!!!!" Cartman yelled.

A magical blue light popped out of the lamp as it poofed to reveal Pinkie and Cartman.

"Geez, Eric. You don't have to yell at me all the time!" Pinkie dusted herself off, annoyed with Cartman's attitude.

"Well, you could've explained more what you were thinking!" Cartman spoke. "You almost scared me to death!"

"Hmph, sure." Pinkie said sarcastically. "It's all my fault. All I've been doing all day was save your life!"

Cartman rolled his eyes in annoyance. "Fine. I'm sorry."

Pinkie then remembered Cartman's rather angrier tone from earlier. "You know," Pinkie jumped in front of Cartman as her picked up the phone. "If I didn't know any better, you looked madder than usual."

"No...really?" Cartman asked in a sarcastic tone.

"Oh..." Pinkie knew something was up now. "Something's bothering you!"

"No," Cartman said. "The only thing bothering me is you!"

"Come on, Eric!" Pinkie folded her hooves. "Something happened, I just know it!"

"Nothing happened!" Cartman got annoyed.

"What exactly is peeving you off right now, what?" Pinkie got her eyes in Cartman's face.

"Shut up about my stupid step-family!" Cartman finally blurted out.

"Breakthrough!" Pinkie hopped in the air, as Cartman raised an eyebrow. "Now we're on a roll here! Tell me Eric, what's on your mind?"

"Alright! Alright!" Cartman threw his hands in the air. "I'm having trouble with my step-family...I...I hate the changes...okay?"

Pinkie only nodded in silence.

"I never even asked to be apart of another family." Cartman turned around and sat down. "Who even asked me what I thought of that? Nobody, that's who."

"But Eric," Pinkie put her hoof around him. "You have SpongeBob! He's super fan to have around!"

"Ugh, why am I even talking about this to you?" Cartman stood up. "You have a real brother! You don't know what it's like to have a step-family shoved in your life!"

"Eric," Pinkie jumped in front of him. "A step-family can be as great and loving as any family!...Maybe you should at least give them a chance."

Cartman turned to Pinkie in confusion as she still kept her smile on. Suddenly, Pinkie and Cartman got some kind of scent...it was...a delicious scent.

"Mmmmm," Cartman sighed as he began walking towards where the scene was coming from. "What is that smell?"

"I don't know," Pinkie said as she followed Cartman, also in a trance with the scent.

The two were so smitten by the scent, that they didn't even notice the scent grow fingers, and pick them up by their fur/coat and drag them closer. Once the scent finally put them down, they looked down and saw what the scent was connected to.

"Giant pizza?!" Cartman's mouth started drooling as he noticed that in the ground was an enormous pepperoni pizza slice. And it was sizzling hot!

"How in the humongous world did this get in the ground?" Pinkie looked at the bubbling cheese on the slice.

"Who cares? I am starving!" Cartman grinned as he put his face in the slice, waiting for the delicious taste of pizza...but instead, he got nothing but a burnt mouth.

"YAAAA-OOOOWWWW!!!!" Cartman jumped back from the pizza, and started brushing his tongue, frantically.

"Eric, what happened?" Pinkie jumped to Cartman's side.

"I burnt my tongue!!!" Cartman said with his tongue sticking out.

"...You weren't the sun?" Pinkie asked.

"No! I burnt my tongue!!!" Cartman said again.

"...You turned a pun?" Pinke asked again.

"No!!! I! Burnt! My! Tongue!!!" Cartman said again.

"Hmmm," Pinkie thought. "You know Eric, I think you burnt your tongue."

Suddenly, the ground began to shake as the pizza slice grew more and more bigger, making Pinkie and Cartman jump back as the ground beneath them cracked.

"That isn't ordinary giant pizza..." Pinkie gasped looking at the bubbles bursting from the cheese. "IT'S PIZZA LAVA!!!" She yelped, frantically running around. "PIZZA LAVA!!!!"

"Pizza lava?" Cartman asked before a bubble bursted, causing lava to drop beside him. "Yah!" Cartman jumped back. "Could this get any weirder?"

Suddenly, the skies began to thunder. Pinkie and Cartman looked up and saw giant, pink, fluffy clouds looming over them. They started flashing as a thunderous sound echoed through the forest.

"It's the cotton candy clouds!!!" Pinkie stood back in fear.

Brown liquid started raining down upon them as Cartman got some in his mouth. "...Is this rain chocolate..."

"Chocolate of DEATH! Run!!!" Pinkie began running for her life.

Cartman looked up and saw the sky thundering more. That was enough to intimidate Cartman as he grabbed the phone and joined Pinkie.

Wind started blowing violently as Pinkie and Cartman began running as fast as their feet could carry them. The wind started to blow pizza lava in their path, blocking them from going any further. The wind blew more powerful as it whisked Pinkie off her feet, causing her to grab a tree branch to keep herself from blowing away.

"Eriiiic!!!" Pinkie struggled to hang out. "Quick!!! Take the phone and get rid of it!!!"

"Me?" Cartman called. "W-what about you? You're coming with me, right?!"

"I don't know if I caaaaaaan!!!!" Pinkie shouted back.

Cartman started to get worried. This chaos was getting more and more dangerous! And now, he felt he was close to being alone in the middle of the Brisby Forest while under a chaotic storm! He was getting more and more anxious until somethi-

"Hey!" Cartman looked up. "Who's that talking?!"

...Uh...what do you mean? I don't...Wait, you can hear me?! I'm the narrator! You can't hear me! That doesn't make sense!

"You kind of sound weird," Cartman raised an eyebrow.

OH, GET RID OF THAT PHONE ALREADY!!!!!

Cartman yelped from the narrator's tone, as he looked down at the golden phone, and saw his opposite reflection. He looked up and saw Pinkie struggling for her life as the tree branch started to break.

Cartman then looked back at the pizza lava, with his eyes widened on what to do. He then quickly grabbed the phone as he ran towards the pizza lava, and with all his might, threw the phone towards the lava...but it landed on the edge.

"Awww, what a let-down!" Cartman said annoyance as he then simply kicked the phone in the pizza lava.

He watched the phone slowly start to melt away in the cheesy, sizzling, fiery liquid. Suddenly, the ground began to shake as the cracks started to form back, making Cartman jump back. Once the two separated grounds joined back, the wind ceased, as the cotton candy clouds vanished, revealing a pink and orange evening sky.

Cartman sighed in relief as he looked up at the tree, but saw Pinkie wasn't on it.

"Pinkie?" Cartman hopped to his feet, looking around. "Pinkie, where are you?!"

"Eriiiiiiic!!!!"

Cartman looked up and saw Pinkie happily falling through the sky as she landed on him.

"Eric!" Pinkie grinned as she got up and hugged Cartman. "You did it! You did it, you saved us all!"

"I did?" Cartman looked confused.

"Yeah!" Pinkie nodded. "Sure, you may have started everything, but you made up for it!"

"Wow..." Cartman said to himself. But then he realized something. "But you won't tell anyone about this right?" He said in his usual tone.

Pinkie zipped her mouth shut with a zipper. "Mmm limm am-" Pinkie tried to say but she quickly unzipped her mouth. "My lips are zipped!" Pinkie spoke before zipping it shut again.





Later that evening, Pinkie and Cartman arrived back at her home.

"Are you sure you don't need me to come to your place?" Pinkie asked.

"I'll be fine." Cartman said.

Pinkie did a funny knock on her door as it opened revealing her happy older brother.

"Oh, Pinkie!" Genie said, happily as she and Pinkie hugged. "Good to see you back!"

"Good to be back, brother!" Pinkie said as she and Genie laughed.

As Cartman went on his way, he looked back at Pinkie and Genie having fun, as he thought more what Pinkie told him earlier about his step-family.





As Cartman reached his house, he walked inside and went upstairs where he saw SpongeBob taking off his wizard clothes. SpongeBob took notice of his step-brother walking in.

"Oh, hello, Eric!" SpongeBob spoke, happily. "How was your day?"

"What?" Cartman asked. "Oh, uh...it was fine, I guess."

"Well, it was fun for me!" SpongeBob said, excitedly. "I got to see so many different magic tricks at the convention! I'm hoping I can use magic to cook someday!"

Cartman looked down for a second when hearing SpongeBob talk.

SpongeBob took notice of how Cartman was acting. "Hey, Eric, are you alright?"

Cartman looked back up. "Oh, nothing! I...I just wanted to say, I'm glad that you're back."

SpongeBob wasn't used to Cartman saying things like that, but he smiled. Cartman simply shrugged back.

"Oh, that reminds me!" SpongeBob said. He quickly pulled a skunk out of his magic convention bag, startling Cartman.

"I found this cute little skunk on my way back!" SpongeBob grinned. "But he actually sprays perfume instead!"

Cartman's eyes widened. It was the skunk he ran into, earlier!

"Here, smell it!" SpongeBob held the skunk up to Cartman for him to smell. But instead of perfume, the skunk sprayed a horrid, green, disgusting smell, causing Cartman to fall over from the stench.

SpongeBob looked at the skunk, confused. "Hmm, at least you used to spray perfume." SpongeBob said sheepishly.

THE END
