Mistakes and Regrets

Chapter 1

It was a dark stormy night in Fair city, and it was also right after the evil Dr. Two-brains had escaped from prison once more. Wordgirl had given up on looking for him because it was late and she was getting extremely tired. She de-transformed in an alleyway and walked home with Bob. On the otherside of things, Dr. Two-brains just arrived at his layer and had started working on his next evil plan. His henchman where frolicking around, not following directions. He sighed "Henchman, go get ready for bed. I have some late night planning to do." They nodded and went to their room. Then, Dr. Two-brains would make his way to the chesse vault only to see a Wordgirl doll with the written definition of trust on it. "Hmm? A doll?" He was making his way to throw it away, but something was telling him he couldn't throw it away. Instead he just set it on the couch and continued planning. The next day at 11:46 a.m., Wordgirl busted in Dr. Two-brains layer. "Ah ha! I found you Two-brains! Now what cheese scheme are you planning this time?" Dr. Two-brains smirked "Well Wordgirl, I am planning to turn the community talent show stage into cheese! Ah haha!" Then, Wordgirl saw the doll on the couch and started flooding with tears. "Y..you...you" She just ran and hugged Dr. Two-brains. "W-what is this? Is this a new form of crime fighting because I will never sub come to it!" She continued hugging him "No no its just... " Dr. Two-brains smiles a little bit "Go on, I'm listening" she stopped hugging him "Let's just continue this another day" Dr. Two-brains agreed and let Wordgirl leave, as he side eyed the doll, "Why is this doll so special to her...? What made her feel emotion?" He picked up the doll and looked at it again. He looked at the definition of trust written on it and set it back down as he went to take a nap. While sleeping Two-brains has a dream about Steven Boxlighter in his lab, making a grilled cheese sandwich. As he started eating the sandwich it felt as if Dr. Two-brains was now in Steven's body. Wordgirl would walk into the lab with a present. "Hey Professor!" Wordgirl beamed as she exclaimed that. "Need need..wait I'm free! I don't have cravings!" Wordgirl gave a soft smile "Your messing with me, right?" Steven looks at Wordgirl "Yeah Becky, I am!" She smiled as she handed Steven the present. "Why thank you, Becky!" He opened it, it was the doll, the very same one, Dr. Two-brains found earlier. "Oh, Becky, why did you get me this...?" "For being the best mentor on earth!" Steven smiled, before Two-brains woke up from the dream "Oh...that was a dream...one that I will treasure forever..." He would look at the photo of Steven and Becky on his cheese dresser as he got up and made himself a cheese sandwich. He picked up the doll and held it close to him until his head walked in on him. He threw the doll at a wall and looked at them "Hiya boss, watcha doing?" Dr. Two-brains put his hands behind his back and stated "N-nothing! Now leave!" They left and Dr. Two-brains picked up the doll again. The doll now had a cracked eye "...no big deal...it adds character..." he lied to himself. "*sigh* I can feel myself slipping away, again. This time I might go back to being Steven" He would think about that for a second "Going back to being Steven is something I could never do. At least not with all these cheese cravings on a daily basis." Then he remembered how much Wordgirl looked up to him "Forget it, I could never. Not after what I have done to her." He set the doll back down and took out a box of letters "*sigh* I can't run away from my problems forever..." he open the first of the letters. These letters were ones that he wrote to Wordgirl before it happened. "I'm losing myself, but the transformation would keep me alive..." he set the letter down and had a good cry. After a little while he dicided it would be best to go and steal cheese to get Wordgirl's attention so they could talk. They both needed a break from the norm, it feels like every day at least to him, he is a mouse running around a maze looking for cheese. As he got ready for this robbery he thought it would be best not to tell his henchman, to avoid unnecessary backup. When he got to the store, his plan was to just walk in and take cheese. Sure it was basic, but it was simple and didn't involve inventions or rays. As he started stealing the cheese something knocked him out cold. It felt like someone was caring him somewhere and when he woke up someone was treating his wounds. Two people could be heard talking outside "After the rat attack he might as well be a goner, I'm sorry Linda." The person that was treating him look him in the eyes "Good, your awake. I tried to treat your wounds the best that I could, but the scar is still there, but on the otherside of things, your leg is healed!" He got up "Yep its healed alright." A little girl was calling a name "P-Professor Boxlighter...?" He looked at his body "Great, another dream..." Someone put their hand on the little girl's cheek "Dear, he may be dead." The little girl pushed their hand off "I'm not giving up yet! Professor. Steven Boxlighter?" Steven looked at the little girl "Yes dear?" The little girl ran and hugged Steven "Mommy said you were dead..." he stopped hugging her "Well I'm clearly not. . . dead. . ." "Well, Becky and Anazing Guy are dead..." A tear would fall down Steven's face "Let's have a moment of silence for the fallen as we may not have the chance to have a funeral..." Everyone remain silent. "We're happy that your alive Steven, by all means...! We thought you were a goner..." An older woman looked at him and smirked "Then it must be, Black Magic an old witches curse." As he started getting chased he ended up in his lab seconds before the transformation. "Oh this is going to sting..." the lights blacked out as all he felt was pain. "Need more CHEESE! YES YES!" He also had an awful headache. Then suddenly he woke up on the floor of Wordgirl's headquarters. The headache was gond as he heard a faint voice, "Huggy! Get him some water!" Wordgirl looked at t hff e now awake, Two-brains "Hey...we arrested your henchman but, you wernt with them...did something happen...are you alright? I found you on the floor of the grocery store out cold." Two-brains glanced at her not really being able to say anything gave a weak thumbs up to her question. Huggy came back with water and Wordgirl handed Two-brains the water. As he drank it Wordgirl continued asking questions "What was that about? Who did that to you? Why were your here still at your lair? Why was a robot leg next to- OH I THINK I KNOW WHO DID THIS!" Two-brains looked at her once more "Shh" Wordgirl looked at him "Sorry..." Wordgirl then went to Tobey's house and knocked on the door. As Ms. Mcalister answer Wordgirl exclaims "Hello Mrs. Mcalister! Your son Tobey violated the most important rule of being a villain, 'Never Backstab a Fellow Villain' as this rule doesn't apply to me because I am a hero, it is still not okay." Mrs. Mcalister nodded and grabbed Tobey as Wordgirl left. Wordgirl returns to her lair only to find Dr. Two-brains still on the ground and Huggy making food. Wordgirl went into her play room to record a video for her parents, she de-transformed into Becky Botsford and started recording "Hey mom and dad! Bob and I are going to be late tonight, Violet wanted me to help her with a school project." The real reason that she was recording that video was because with Two-brains in her headquarters, she would have to stay here a while. Sure he wasn't causing trouble or wreaking havoc, but if she left him here over night something might happen. All Two-brains could think about in the moment was 'Don't fall asleep, no more sleep...! Sleep equals Steven...!' Wordgirl looked at him "You alright there Doc?" Dr. Two-brains looked back at her "I'm fine...I think I'm just going to let the mouse brain takeover for a little while." As he went into a trans his second brain glowed green and a few minutes later, Squeaky was in control. As Dr. Squeaky-Brains was running around the room like crazy, Wordgirl sighed "I wanna lock him up but, it wouldn't be fair. His human side isn't in control, he can't control what happens when his mouse side is in control. He can only observe..." Huggy got the idea to make Squeaky not want to be in control anymore. Wordgirl threw a piece of cheese at Dr. Squeaky-Brains to distract him while, her and Huggy thought of a plan. Wordgirl nodded to Huggy's plan and went to Two-brains henchman. When the two arrived with Wordgirl they looked at Squeaky-Brains and Squeaky-Brains got extremely excited. "HUMANS WORK FOR SQUEAKY NOW!!!" As the two henchman willingly grabbed Squeaky-Brains brains Wordgirl smiled a bit. "We want our old boss back..." Squeaky-Brains souned annoyed "Ugh fine..." as his second brain glowed again Two-brains regained Control and the henchman were sent back to jail, while Two-brains wasn't.
