so Gus and I took a plastic bag, the food processor and Mom's acid cream jars to mix a potion strong enough to save mankind from the deadly menace. At least we thought so, until the solid blob started making unholy, screeching noises, the bag with its contents growing, swelling over the Flames of Hell which we had summoned over our stove. It threw us for a loop of sheer, alchemic terror. We simply could not believe we had failed! What had we done wrong? Had we been too careless, too callow? Too blue-eyed about powers our young minds were not yet able to grasp? Had we just unleashed an even bigger threat upon humanity?

And how should we battle the evil forces without the pentacle of Estee Lauder?

As soon as we realized our shocking mistake we got a candle and tried to seal the first deadly wounds in the plastic fabric of our banning hex. Up to this day I do not know what happened then. We must have done something wrong with the magic seal we dropped on the bulging bizarreness, because as soon as the wax hit the thin fabric, the only thing separating us from the evil forces of hissing, gurgling demons, the barrier was torn apart like a teenage magazine in a puberty tantrum because they just posted yet another photo love story where your idol gets to make out with some unknown, ugly nobody.

The Charged Energy of Chaos and Destruction exploded, all over the

They stared, wide-eyed, consumed by shock and terror until Gus started leaving his side and heading for the door. Shawn noticed his friend's attempt to escape immediately because in the first moment of agonizing fear they had clung to each other, shaking with what they knew would be soon-to-come consequences. Now one of them fled the scene of crime and Shawn whirled around, the look of betrayal and anger evident on his face. "Gus!"

"I just remembered, I still need to do my homework, I gotta go..."

"You can't just go! You gotta help me clean this up!"

"Sorry, Shawn," Gus paused by the window, making sure Henry's squad car hadn't turned up yet and slipped outisde. "Good luck!"

"Gus? Gus!!"

His only answer was the banging door and a piece of ocher splatting on the ground.

Oh great.

So much for their brave attempt to turn yearn into the power source of the next generation. He figured Gus would never make much of a scientist.

Being troublemakers Shawn knew exactly what Gus looked like after he had gotten into a fight. Or merely stumbled and fell. Or had been stuffed into a locker. Or had fallen yet again into the painful, overall category of bullying.

It didn't look anything like this today. Gus just stood there and plucked his stained shirt that looked like he had been chased around and fallen into a puddle of mud.

Or pushed.

"Look son, being a good shot, being quick with a pistol, that don't do no harm, but it don't mean much next to being cool-headed. A man who will keep his head and not get rattled under fire, like as not, he'll kill ya."
– Unforgiven


Like most teenage boys Shawn Spencer thought guns were neat. Therefore he was thrilled when his dad finally said it was about time he learned how to handle one. Henry built a shooting-range and Shawn had a soft air at first and when he got better and better he was taken to the range at the station.

The first time Shawn fired a real gun he was surprised how heavy it was. And how loud. He had expected it to be more like in the movies, to sound like in the movies but that day he learned that in the movies this was all they were: sounds. The real gunfire rang in his ears and dazed him, his arms shook from the unexpected kickback and that was when he felt the power of a weapon. Not the power of coolness or the power depicted by action heroes but the sheer, brute and ugly force of the real world.

His knees weakened from it and when the target zoomed in and Henry told him "Congratulations, son. You just shot the hostage." he felt sick for two days straight.

We have gathered here today to mourn for the sudden, unexpected loss of a beloved family member. And even though we lack a body we can bury we will have a most respectful ceremony. Also, a funeral feast.

Chairman Meow. Chairman Meow was a cat. But he wasn’t just a cat, he was my cat and he was loved. He vanished under mysterious circumstances. Some claim he ran away... but he wouldn't because, as I just said, we shared a bond of love. Others say he has been abducted by aliens... evil tongues even proclaim he was the victim of a murderous attack. But I know that is impossible, because he would have scratched anyone’s eyes out. Chairman Meow had the sharpest claws in the whole neighbourhood. But he didn’t come home to bring me alien eyes.

Actually, he didn’t come home at all.

It is my firm belief that Chairman Meow is at a better place now. He has reached the next plane of existence and the hope of spotting him on the next episode of PSI Factor has not subsided yet.

Goodbye, Chairman Meow. You will never be forgotten.

And I know, one day I will find out what happened to you.

"You think you can throw stones at me, Spencer?"

Shawn didn't really have the chance to reply because he wasn't too keen on getting toilet water into his mouth. Besides, the sound of the flushing blocked out everything else. He was pulled up again, roughly, confronted with a very angry Jimmy Nickles whose ugly face was way too close for Shawn's liking. "See what happens when you throw stones at me?"

"Lemme go!" He was scared. And angry. And worst of all, alone.

"No, Gus, I'm tellin' you, it is possible." It is more the anger than the neccessity that makes Shawn rub his palm over his cheek again and again. He knows the dirt is long gone and that he was lucky because there is no visible graze. It feels like a graze though because being pushed into the dirt is not fun. "We just take your ExperimentMaster3000 kit, build a rocket that can fly very fast and send him back to the dinosaurs. Then a mammoth will chase him all day long."

Oh yeah, he would definitely love seeing Jimmy Nickles being chased by a mammoth.

He dawdles, not too eager to get home so soon because his dad always knows when he's angry and he always wants to know what is going on. He can't let his dad know what's going on because he knows he'd probably send him back out there to face Jimmy. Oh yeah, dad would send him back out there even if Jimmy swung a bat, Shawn was convinced of it. Face his fears, come up with solutions. He snorts and angrily kicks a stone out of the way, pulling his bicycle along.
