South Park: Bloodline's, Book 1: Shadows Over South Park

The Calm Before The Storm

The alarm clock buzzed, startling Tweek awake, he looks around the room half asleep.

Tweek: "Great, another day of school" Tweek muttered

He rubs his eyes.

Tweek: "Why does this always feel like the end of the world"

Tweek drags himself out of bed, hands trembling like usual.

Tweek: "ok Tweek, just breath, its just school" Tweek says to himself.

Tweek peered out the window to look at the view from his bedroom.

Tweek: "South Park looks so peaceful in the morning" Tweek says to himself, trying to calm his nerves

Tweek: "But why do I feel like something bad is going to happen" Tweek says in a paranoid expression

Tweek gets ready for school and heads downstairs for his morning coffee.

Mrs Tweak: "Morning Tweek" Tweek's mum handed him a cup of coffee.

Mrs Tweak: "Big day today, huh?"

Tweek: "Yeah, big day," he replied, taking a sip. "why does coffee never calm me down" Tweek thought.

As he stepped outside the front, the cool air hit my face.

Tweek: "Alright, I can do this" Tweek whispered

Tweek saw Kyle and Stan at the corner.

Tweek: "Hey guys!" he called out, trying to sound normal.

Kyle: "Morning, Tweek" Kyle said, smiling. Ready for the first day?

Tweek:"Yeah, totally," He lied. "Why does this day feel so wrong?"

They walked to school together, passing the familiar sights of South Park.

Tweek: "Everything looks the same," He noted, "But why does it feel all different?"

Kyle's phone buzzed and he frowned

Kyle: "Did you hear about Ronnie?" He asked. "He went missing last night."

Tweek: "What? No way!" he gasped. "That's... that's creepy."

Stan: "Yeah," Stan said looking concerned "people are saying he just vanished. left a weird note or something"

a chill ran down Tweek's spine.

Tweek: "Why does this stuff always happen here?"

They all reach the school gates, Tweek takes a deep breath.

Tweek: "Here goes nothing," Tweek muttered to himself "just another day in South Park."

Little do they know, the calm was just a façade. The real storm was just beginning.

The school hallway buzzed with the usual chatter and laughter.
