“ | Do you know how sea stars feed, SpongeBob? Let me... show you. Our stomachs extend out of our bodies... Penetrating our prey... and injecting them with enzymes. So that they may be digested externally... I'm sorry, SpongeBob. | „ |
~ Patrick to SpongeBob as he injects him with enzymes and seemingly consumes him. |
“ | Patrick: I haven't forgotten, Krabs. Your Krabby Patty secret formula... IS ME. You stole a piece of me, all those years ago... AND WE WANT IT BACK! Most people know that sea stars can regenerate a lost limb... but few know that in some cases, the lost limb can generate a new sea star. Mr. Krabs: All these years and now you remember? What changed? Patrick: Sea star nervous systems aren't centralized. They're spread throughout our limbs. So when I ate an undercooked Krabby Patty... the memory cells fused with my own, endowing me with my copy's endless nightmares, his anguish, and his lust for REVENGE! Mr. Krabs: Ok, I've been going along with this marine biology stuff, but this seems a little far-fetched— |

~ The Tortured One to Good Patrick, stating its reasons for killing Bikini Bottom's citizens. |
Patrick Star, or more specifically, his clone the Tortured One, is the main antagonist of the SpongeBob fan webcomic The Bikini Bottom Horror.
He is a more competent yet murderous version of his cartoon counterpart, being able to become a monstrous beast that can grab people and dissolve them into fluids that he then dines on. He is also able to clone into multiple Patricks due to his ability to regenerate his body from severed limbs and vice versa.
Biography
The story starts with SpongeBob asking Patrick if he wants to go jellyfishing with him, only for Patrick to ask him if he knows how starfish feed. He then proceeds to eat SpongeBob as he explains, apologizing to SpongeBob after he injects him with enzymes and seemingly kills him. Sandy, after learning this, leaps out to avenge him by slicing Patrick in half. However, this just results in the two halves regenerating to become two Patricks, both of which attempt to eat her. As this happens, Barnacle Boy notices the chaos that the Patricks are causing throughout Bikini Bottom and announces to Mermaid Man that there's evil afoot, only for the starfish on Mermaid Man's nose to turn out to be another Patrick clone, who promptly jumps off his face, ripping it off and causing him to bleed to death.
Sandy manages to make it to the Krusty Krab, where she explains to Mr. Krabs that SpongeBob has been eaten by Patrick and that they need to board up the restaurant before they are too. However, a Patrick sticks a large tendril into the building, smashing a hole through the boards, and grabs Sandy with it, dragging her through the hole. Then the Patrick prepares to kill Krabs, who shifts into his giant crab form to try to kill him. After tearing the Patrick's head off, though, the sea star tells him about how he knows about Krabs cutting off one of his arms and using it to generate a clone, which he tormented for years as he used it to make Krabby Patty meat.
As the Patrick finishes his backstory, a group of Patricks grab Krabs's legs and tear them off. Later, Sandy and Squidward enter the Krusty Krab and see Mr. Krabs overturned, with his legs and claws lying around him in pools of blood. He explains how a Patrick forced him to eat a raw Krabby Patty before a small starfish bursts out of his chest, killing him once and for all. A lone Patrick emerges and Squidward tries to put him to sleep with a song. This Patrick covers his ears and rips them off before turning into his monster form, breaking Squidward's clarinet and knocking him down onto the floor.
This Patrick then turns back into his normal form, now scarred by the bullets fired at him by Sandy and the spaces where his ears used to be. A group of Patricks then surround the two, preparing to kill them both. However, Squidward turns into his monster/Kraken form, killing all of the clones around them. Sandy then decides to shoot the one that killed Krabs, only for Plankton to appear and tell her not to shoot, explaining that she'll want to see where the clone is going. They follow it underneath the Krusty Krab, where a machine hangs from the ceiling.
Plankton explains that the machine is what the tortured clone was hooked up to, injecting it with growth hormones and allowing Krabs to take pieces of the clone's body and turn them into patty meat. Sandy is so disgusted by the revelation that she winds up puking in her suit. Plankton then shows her something even more disturbing: a cult of Patrick clones. The small Patrick clone tugs on a Patrick's robe and says that he has returned. The Patrick responds by telling him that he is too small and unready to rejoin with the Tortured One, and that he must feed some more before returning again. Then a much larger Patrick enters the area, saying that he is ready to rejoin and that the souls that he once fed would now be fed to him.
The other cultists shout "Rejoice" as he leaps into and falls toward the bottom of the pit. Then a Patrick throws Sandy over the edge of the balcony she's standing on, revealing that Plankton had tricked her into going there so that he would be spared by them. After he leaves, a Patrick absorbs her gun and then holds her above the pit, where she sees a large, outer-space-like vortex, which opens up and reveals SpongeBob's face, who tells her to join him and become a part of something beautiful. Beneath the vortex, it is shown that there is actually a large pool of acid, which some grinning Patricks are being dissolved by.
She seemingly considers joining him before wriggling out of the Patrick's grasp and tossing him into the pit, causing him to dissolve in the acid at the bottom. The other cultists are grabbed by dozens of clawed hands that suddenly break through out of the ground, tearing them apart as they happily watch Sandy get grabbed by the hands, which attempt to tear her apart as well. However, she manages to get free by unzipping her suit and escaping with just her helmet. However, more hands grow from the walls of the tunnel she runs through as a crack forms and begins growing in the earth above. When Squidward flies up to get an aerial view of the crack, he sees that there are actually five of them, all forming the shape of a star. At the center of the cracks is the Krusty Krab, which is destroyed as a huge starfish arm breaks through the ground and lands on Larry.
Larry is then torn apart and killed by the tiny appendages of the colossal starfish, which then eats him and stands up above the wreckage of the Krusty Krab, revealing itself to be the tortured clone that Krabs had been using as his source for Krabby Patty meat for years, now also combined with many Patricks. It uses another arm to break through the roof of a building where some survivors hide out, eating Bubble Bass and a few other unfortunate fish. It then attempts to eat a mother and her child, but Squidward grabs the arm with a rope and yanks it out before it's able to grab them, saying to it that its fight is with him.
They engage in a battle, with Squidward tossing the Tortured One down onto the ocean floor, ordering it to stay down. It responds by lifting itself up and causing Squidward to fly into his house, destroying it in the process. In response, Squidward lifts up SpongeBob's pineapple and tosses it straight into the mouth of the Tortured One, causing it to bleed and begin choking as Squidward flies up to finish it off. Meanwhile, a Patrick that had learned about the secret formula's true amount of secrecy and became heartbroken over the realization finds Gary, who nuzzles against the clone's leg. The clone responds with a promise to redeem himself for his wrongdoing and make things right.
Squidward tries to shove the pineapple further down the Tortured One's throat, only for the pineapple to break into multiple pieces and cause Squidward to nearly be pushed into the TO's stomach. When Squidward looks into it, he sees what look like the ghosts of Larry and SpongeBob that try to convince him to give up and let go. The latter also holds a clarinet that he tells Squidward to play so he can let go and join them. As he holds it out, both the ghosts suddenly begin disintegrating and melting away. Suddenly, Squidward sees the vision of a large audience of rotting and disintegrating sea-dwellers eaten by the monster, including Bubble Bass and Squilliam Fancyson, all telling him to let go and play them a final song to bring him peace. Before Squidward can make a decision, though, Sandy shows up to break him out of his trance and hit the Tortured One with a rocket launcher.
Plankton and Karen then show up in a giant mech, the former wishing to redeem himself for what he did to Sandy. He cuts off one of the Tortured One's limbs and burns its wound to keep the limb from regenerating. However, the small Patrick appears behind him to grab him with its stomach and eat him, killing him after his head explodes. Sandy kills the clone, but the Tortured One's limb begins to grow into a new monster and Karen, without Plankton, is unable to go over to burn it completely. So Sandy and Squidward push her over and allow her to self-destruct atop the limb. It attempts to grab hold of Squidward before Karen blows up, but Sandy shoots off the tentacle that it grabs onto and they quickly fly away before they get caught in the explosion.
Chapter 16 reveals that a Patrick had gone over to Squidward's house to attempt to consume him, but it was foiled after Squidward stuck his clarinet into one of its eyes. Outside, he saw the destruction that the Patricks were causing, including the clothes and the dissolved body of SpongeBob, which Squidward lamented over and which triggered his apology for not being a better friend. After the flashback, the Patricks attempt to kill Squidward by eating their way to his brain, but stop when Good Patrick shows up and berates the Tortured One for his supposed ignorance, explaining how nobody besides Mr. Krabs knew that Krabby Patties were made out of starfish meat, which causes Squidward to jaw-drop in shock and horror. Good Patrick then asks the Tortured One why everyone should be punished for something they never knew about, to which it responds by saying that they never asked and tries to kill the good Patrick by smashing it.
Squidward finally blasts off the Patricks attached to him with ink and prepares to take down the Tortured One once and for all, only to see SpongeBob holding on to the arm that attempted to squish Good Patrick. After SpongeBob reveals that he was able to come back to life because of his ability to regenerate via a single cell, he fuses with all of the cells covering all the Patricks and becomes Porifera. After devouring all of the Patricks (except for Good Patrick), he prepares to go to battle with the Tortured One, explaining how what it did was far more monstrous than what was done to it before finally delivering the first punch, officially starting the battle between the two. They both manage to tear pieces of each other apart. As a result, the Tortured One releases its stomach in an attempt to consume him, causing Porifera's skin to melt as he comes into contact with it.
After Barnacle Boy sacrifices himself to make Mt. Bikini Bottom erupt, Sandy (now Mermaid Squirrel) and Squidward attempt to push the Tortured One into the resulting crack in the earth. Sandy tries to save SpongeBob, but Squidward says that it's too late, with most of his skin having been melted off of his body. Inside of the Tortured One's mindscape, SpongeBob (not appearing as Porifera) sees the TO, being hoisted by a machine similar to the one in the Krusty Krab. He explains to SpongeBob his plans to consume everything in the ocean indiscriminately, not caring whether or not anyone he eats had anything to do with his torment. He then grabs SpongeBob with multiple hooks and stretches him out, intending to torment and eventually kill SpongeBob.
However, Gary, finding his way into the mindscape, slithers up his body and bites him, while in the real world, TO's stomach pops open. When Squidward realizes he can save SpongeBob/Porifera, he goes up to him and manages to snap him out of his trance. Porifera, now mostly a large skeleton, lifts up the Tortured One and throws it into the magma-filled crevice, finally killing it once and for all. Porifera nearly goes down with it as the ground where he stands collapses, but Patrick, Sandy, and Squidward manage to grab a small chunk of him before he falls in, which turns into SpongeBob in his normal form and hugs the group.
Personality
Unlike mainstream Patrick Star, who is dumb but kind, this version of Patrick is highly intelligent, but also villainous and cold. He is completely fine with destroying the ocean and everything in it as an act of petty vengeance, even though nobody besides Mr. Krabs and SpongeBob originally knew about the secret formula being him. He is unforgiving to anyone who apologizes, even his supposed best friend, and he even violently tortures many of his victims before killing them. He is also a bully, a liar, a mass murderer, and a complete psychopath.
Quotes

The Tortured One: You devoured my flesh for years without ever even bothering to learn what you were consuming, SpongeBob: I didn't... The Tortured One: but your ignorance absolves you of nothing! Once I've dissolved every last cell in your body, I'll finish Sandy, and Squidward, and the rest of Bikini Bottom. Then I'll grow a new army of stars and we will spread across the entire ocean, consuming everything, indiscriminately like you. But first I'm going to enjoy... Tearing your mind apart! |
