Bunny - Battle of the bands

Chapter 5

During lunch the boys discuss the band again, talking about what to improve and what rehearsal schedule should look like.

"We have one week until the bracket starts, which isn't much time, so we should practice 3 times a week. Two on school days and one on the weekend." Kyle says as he draws out a diagram.

Kenny looks at the sheet, "Sounds good to me. Shouldn't we ask Butters if he can make it?"

Cartman scoffs, "He will do what I tell him to."

"You should be nicer to him. He's not a bad person."

"That's the point. He's such an angel and it annoys the fuck out of me."

"Why does that of all things upset you?"

"Nice people are always hiding something."

"If you say so..."

Butters runs up to the lunch table with a sheet of paper. "They just posted all the bands! I have the list here."

The boys gather around Butters.

Cartman smiles, "This will be easy."

"What do you mean? More than half the seniors signed up." Kyle objects.

"And they all suck."

Kenny points at the paper, "I wouldn't be so sure, look."

Kenny points at a band called TCTC. Craig, Tweek, Tolkien, and Clyde.

"Why would that be a threat?"

"Tolkien is a god on the bass. And Tweek has an angelic voice."

"So? We have that too!"

Kenny gives Cartman a questioning look, "Don't get too confident."

"I'm just telling the truth."

After school the boys practice again. This time trying a full song. They chose to do Kenny's song since it didn't take too much and Kenny knew all the words.

Butters sits in the corner of the garage and watches them tune their instruments.

"Alright, Butters. You ready?"

"Yeah." Butters job was to watch and take notes on what could be improved.

"Okay, let's go."

Cartman starts the song off with a slow stump beat, then Kyle joins in on his synthesizer, adding in the wonky sound effects.

Then, Kenny sings the first two lines of the song.

Kenny half closes his eyes and sways a bit while he sings into the microphone. He makes his voice a bit deeper and raspy. Doing his best to sound like the singer.

The first two lines catch Butters off guard. He had forgotten how sexual the song was.

"You let me violate you.
You let me desecrate you."

The air feels like it's been sucked from Butters lungs. He can barely breathe. Nothing in the room is in focus accept for Kenny.

"You let me penetrate you.
You let me complicate you."

Butters felt hot. He raises his arms up and calls for them to stop.

Kenny steps down from the stand, "What's the matter? Did we mess up?"

Butters face goes bright red as Kenny steps closer, "No! I just- I need to go to the bathroom!" He runs out and shuts himself in Kyles bathroom.
