Part II

Chapter 1 – The Aftermath

Kyle awoke. His head hurt. 5 years had passed since that fateful day, and it haunted him every waking moment of his life. Was a drunk now, depression and desolation overcame him. The world was destroyed, it looked like a movie. He stumbled around. The only alcohol left was bad liquor, which left a horrid taste in his mouth.

“Well that was a pretty big plot twist,” a voice said.

“Who is it?” asked Kyle.

“Long time no see,” Timmy said as he flew in.

“Go away, you only bring memories of pain.”

“Stop it!” yelled Timmy. “Stop blaming yourself for Gwen’s death! She’s gone! There is nothing we can do. We need to avenge her death, destroy Megatron, and save the world!”

“That’s a damn big to-do list.” Kyle said.

“Always cracking jokes,” Timmy said, “you disgust me.” And flew away.

Kyle sat there for a moment. “Wait!” he yelled after Timmy, “I have an idea.”

Chapter 2 – A New Hope

“Remember how we first acquired superpowers?” asked Kyle. You could almost hear the wheels turning within his head.

“A needle. I’m not following you on th-” Timmy paused, “Oh shit, I’m not taking another needle in the ass.”

Kyle laughed, “I was just making those big to be a dick, it’s actually only needing to be like 4 millimeters in diameter.”

Timmy lunged at him.

“I hate you so much!” said Timmy, “Those hurt so much, almost as much as that Ostrich’s pen-” he paused, “yeah, his pen. His ‘pen’ hurt a lot.”

“Was it one of the infamous pens from the Pen 15 club?” asked Kyle

Timmy paused, “Shut up Kyle,” and flew away.

“I should begin to prepare those needles shouldn’t I,” Kyle said, and went off.

“So Timmy, these are ready. Do you want the first one?” asked Kyle.

“Sure,” Timmy said, and readied himself. Kyle inserted the needle into Timmy’s wing, and it didn’t hurt at all.
