Kenny woke up the next day in his bed, the sun rising and shining brightly through his window, blinding him.

Kenny gets up, "What the hell happened?" he rubs his head, that's when he remembered everything.

Everything about Butters, about the rooftop, about his death. Kenny's eyes widen, "Shit!....Butters....he's...." Kenny covers his face with his hands, "Shit!"

Kenny ran downstairs, only to see his family crowded around the TV. Kenny raises an eyebrow; it was odd to see them all so quiet and together.

Kenny sat down next to Karen and asked, "What's happening?"

His sister looked up at him, a big frown on her face, tears streaming down as well, "W-We're watching the TV. They say that M-Mysterion's dead."

Kenny was shocked; the news knew!? How!? The sun had gone completely down, and a new day had started, how was his death being reported!?

That's when Kenny realized, the body, he had always wondered what happened to them, he never knew, he just assumed they despawned or something but it was still there! How!?

Kenny got confused before shaking his head and pretending to be sad, "Oh, that's...terrible...."

He felt Karen hug him; he knew her and his persona had grown close, him being her protector and all. He sighed, "It'll be okay, Karen. Everything will be fine."

On the other hand, his parents seemed to be happy, not a care in the world as they watched the news show the dead body of the person that was threatening them to be good.

Kenny knew they were his parents, but man, were they asses. Kenny then got up, as Karen let go and went to her room.

Kenny sighed again and pulled his parka hood over his head, tightening it, before heading outside.

He had wanted to take Butters on that date yesterday, but now it was September 12, and for all Butters knew, he was dead.

Kenny kept walking; he just wanted to be out of the house, to think, what's next? He had hurt Butters, and his own mind tried to kill him.

What does he do now? What does he say!? He'll never look at Butters the same way again, not because he was Professor Chaos though, no, because he had hurt him. Kenny had hurt his beloved Butters; his guilt was eating away at his soul, Butters was doing better, there had been a Chaos incident for a week, and Kenny had just probably ruined that.

What would Butters say? Would he be afraid of him now? Should he talk to him? How?

Kenny sat down on the road curve and thought, Butters, his poor poor, Butters.

Butters, on the other hand, was staring wide-eyed at his TV as the news spoke about Mysterion's death.

He didn't understand, what happened!? He didn't kill him, he didn't even touch him. What happened!?

Butters held his head, fingers in his hair, as he tried to think of an answer, but there was none.

Butters wants to cry but didn't have time to even think of it cause that's when he heard the happy voices of his parents from their bedroom; they were celebrating.

Butters walked over to their room and peeked in. His parents were pouring wine and chanting, "Mysterion's gone! We are free! Praise the killers."

Butters couldn't believe what he was hearing. Were they joking!? What was wrong with them!?

Butters couldn't believe it; they were just reverting back to how they were before, they didn't learn anything.

Butters felt more tears fall. He wanted his boyfriend, no matter how hard those punches were, he didn't know it was him, he just wanted someone who cared and would protect him. He wanted Mysterion.
