It was a beautiful day in Dimmsdale, California. Timmy Turner was walking home from his boring school. He was bummed out after his fairy-obessed teacher, Denzel Crocker, unreasonably gave him another 'F' during pop quiz. Hopefully when he gets back home, he can have his fairy-godparents, Cosmo and Wanda to grant his wishes to make him feel better.
"Another boring day of school," Timmy said, "But I'm glad the nightmare's over."
Suddenly he bumped into someone's legs without looking which causes him to fall backwards on his behind. He looked up and saw Vicky before him.
"Hey, twerp," she said with an evil grin, "guess what you'll be doing before you go home to you mom and dad?"
Timmy had a nervous smile. "Uh... give you a cupcake, so you'll stay away from me?"
"Better than that," Vicky answered, "You're going to be Doidle's running meat." She took out a bottle of meat sauce and poured it on Timmy's head. Then, Vicky's dog, Doidle, appeared behind her legs, growling at him.
Timmy screamed and ran off. Doidle began chasing him, barking. Vicky wickedly laughed at Timmy's humiliation. "Running meat," she chuckled, "I love this one."
At the edge of town's construction site, Doidle lost track of Timmy and sniffed around for him. Timmy hid behind the steeled wall, watching the dog walked off.
"Phew," he sighed in relief, and then, he cleteched his teeth in anger. "Vicky and her stupid dog!" he replied, "All I wanted was to go home in peace!" Then he lowered his voice calmy and sighed again, "What could be worse than this?"
Suddenly, he heard a strange sound. It sounded like a bunch of faint playing drums.
"Uhh.. why do I hear drums? Is Buddy Rich in town?" Timmy asked himself. He walked up near the construction site, following the sound. As the sound grew louder, he realized that it came from the dirt wall. He stared at it for a moment after the music stopped. "Maybe it came from there," he muttered to himself. He noticed a shovel near him and started to dig onto the wall.
He heard his shovel hit something hard. He looked into the hole and noticed a chest handle. He made the hole bigger and pulls the chest out of the wall.
"Wow! A treasure chest!" Timmy replied excitedly, "I wonder if there's any treasures in there!" He sees a lock that locked the treasure chest.
"How do I get it open?" he asked himself. Then, he gets an idea. He took the shovel and slammed the lock open as hard as he can. He took the lock off of the chest. He lifted the lid open and sees nothing but grey sand.
"A bunch of sand?" he replied angily, "I found the treasure chest, and all I find is sand? This is so lame!" He looked into the chest and noticed something is buried underneath the sand. An upper-left, dark-brown corner of wood which he stared at. He dugged away a few itches of sand away and picked up a rectangle-shape item. He slided the sand off of the item which is revealed a board game that entitled 'Jumanji.' It looked jungle-like, and it has a hunter, a monkey, an elephant and a rhinoceros on it.
Timmy became amazed of it with his eyes wide open. "Wow... A board game!" he replied, "But why would anyone wanted to bury a board game here? Ah, who cares! I'm gonna take it home!" He carried the board game and began to run back home.
Two construction workers, who were eating early dinner, watched him run out of the construction site.
"Why does he smell like meat?" one of the construction workers asked, munching on a sandwich.
The second worker who is mute shrugged.
Timmy finally arrived at home, entering his bedroom. He noticed Cosmo and Wanda, playing cards.
"Got any tens?" Wanda asked.
"What's a ten?" Cosmo asked stupidly?
"Hey, guys," Timmy said, "I'm home."
Cosmo and Wanda turned to him. "Timmy! Welcome home, sport," Wanda said, "How is school?"
"Terrible and boring as usual," Timmy answered.
"Did Crocker give you an 'F' again?" Cosmo asked.
"Doesn't he always?" Timmy replied.
"And why do you smell like meat?" Wanda wondered.
"Why do you think I smell like meat?" Timmy asked angrily.
"Oh, oh! I know!" Cosmo replied, "It's Meat Day! Wanda, you didn't tell me it's Meat Day!"
"Cosmo, there's no such thing as Meat Day," Wanda told him, "It's because of Vicky with the meat sauce that done it."
"Exactly," Timmy replied, "Like she did this to me last week!"
Wanda patted on his shoulder. "Aw, don't worry, sport," she assured him, "Maybe a few wishes oughta cheer you up."
Timmy jumped on his bed and placed the game board on the sheet. "Actually, there's something I want to show you guys. I found this."
The fairies floated over and sees the game.
"Jumanji?" Wanda said, "Where did you get that?"
"I found it at the construction site on my way home," Timmy answered, opening the game. He sees a dark-green orb in the center of the hard board. "Neat. This looks cool! You guys want to play?"
Wanda floated next to him. "Now, Timmy," she said, "You have to be careful with this board game. I can sense magic from this game, and I don't like it."
"I can sense it," Cosmo said, "But this game looks cool! Maybe I can play..."
Timmy opens a gray that is the bottom of the board and sees four game tokens and two dice in it. He took out two pieces which looked like a white rhinoceros and a black elephant, staring at them.
"Wow... which one should I choose?" he wondered.
Before Wanda warn him, he heard his dad's voice calling his name which startled him to drop the tokens which magically took their positions at their start spaces. Wanda gasped silently, knowing that she was right about the game while Cosmo scratches his back with his wand.
Timmy closes the game and hidden it under his sheet. "It's my dad," he said, "I'll be right back. Don't touch the game." He ran out of the room as quickly as possible.
"Of course we won't touch the game," Wanda said, "This game is dangerous anyways."
Cosmo, scratching his back with his wand, turned to her. "What game? Did you say something?"
Wanda sighed in annoyance.
Timmy went downstairs and sees his parents in their beach suits, carrying their suitcases.
"Guess what, son?" His dad said, "we're going to 'all parents leaving their kids for one day' beach!"
"What?" Timmy replied.
"And don't you worry," his mom said, "You can have some good time with your babysitter, Vicky." She opened the door, revealing Vicky with her hands on her thighs.
"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Turner," she said sweetly, "And don't you worry. I'll take good care of the twerp- I mean, uh, the little angel from above."
Dad smiled gratefully at her. "Well, I'm so glad you will."
"And we'll be back tomorrow afternoon," Mom said.
"No, wait!" Timmy replied, "You can't leave me!"
"Bye, Timmy!" His parents replied, zooming out of the door in one huge zoom.
Vicky waved at them. "Bye, Mr. and Mrs. Turner!" Then, she turned to him wickedly. "Ok, twerp. Since we're gonna play a game. And it's called, 'TWERP GOES TO BED WHILE I WATCH TV!'" She laughed wickedly as Timmy made a worred face, not going to say anything at all.
Timmy returned to his room, sitting on his bed, staring at the Jumanji game. Wanda appeared beside him and asked, "Timmy, you're still thinking about playing that dangerous game?"
"Wanda, it doesn't look dangerous," Timmy assured, "What could possibly go wrong? Besides, I've already contacted a friend who will play with me."
"Ok," Wanda said, "Who did you invite?"
Suddenly, a pink portal poofed out of nowhere and appearing out of the portal was Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius.
"All right! Jimmy! You're here!" Timmy replied excitedly.
"You called me on the Recaller, Timmy," Jimmy said, "What can I do for you?"
"Jimmy, look what I found!" Timmy said, showing Jumanji to him. Jimmy made an annoyed face, looking at it. "You called me for a board game?" he asked.
"I just wanted you to play with me," Timmy said sadly, "Besides, Vicky's babysitting tonight..."
Jimmy sighed reluctantly, "Well, all right. But you could've at least mention it in the Recaller, instead of sounding like it was urgent."
"Uh... well..." Timmy said nervously, "...Yeah."
"Well, ok, then," Jimmy said, "Let's play the game. Where did you get it?"
"I found it at the construction site," Timmy said, "And it was in the treasure chest."
"Odd," Jimmy said, "Why would anyone want to bury a board game in the treasure chest?"
"And also, Wanda said that this board game is evil," Timmy chuckled in disbelief.
Jimmy examined the game closely. "Hmmm... It doesn't look evil. Just an ordinary board game."
Wanda groaned. "But I assure you boys that something dark is in that game."
"Don't be silly, Wanda," Timmy said, "Now, let's play the game."
"Have you read the instructions?" Jimmy asked.
"Who needs instructions?" Timmy said.
"Well, we can't play if we don't know how to play," Jimmy told him, "I don't see instructions or anything on this board."
Timmy noticed a message on lid door side. "Maybe this might be the instructions."
He placed his hands on the tokens that stood on the start spaces, and tried pulling them off, but they wouldn't come off.
"Weird, why won't they come off?" Timmy asked.
Jimmy ignored him and read the instructions, "'Jumanji. A game for those who seek to find a way to leave their world behind. You roll the dice to move your token. Double gets another turn. The first player to reach the end wins.'"
After Jimmy finished reading it, he said with a shrug, "Well, it sounds simple enough."
"Yep," Timmy said, taking the dice, "What could possibly go wrong?" He rolled the dice, and it showed three. He was about to place his hand onto one of the tokens, but the rhinoceros token magically moved three spaces on its own. He and Jimmy's eyes were widened.
"Did you just see it move all by itself?" Timmy replied.
"Maybe its magnified," Jimmy said.
"I don't think it's magnified, Jimmy," Wanda said, "I have a bad feeling about this."
Cosmo, still scratching his back, wondered, "You still saying something, Wanda?"
Then, Timmy said, "Hey, Jimmy! Look!" The attention was turned to the green glass orb in the center of the board. Something began to fade in, showing them green letters. Timmy began to read the message, "'Splintered rafters all around. Duck them or they'll pin you down.' What does that mean?"
"Maybe it's some kind of a clue," Jimmy answered, "But.. I just don't understand it."
Then, Cosmo cried out, "Ouch! Something hit my head!" Jimmy, Timmy and Wanda looked back and noticed a small beam of wood on the floor.
"Um, Timmy?" Jimmy asked, "Does your room has wood?"
"Um... no?" Timmy uneasily responded. Then, Jimmy felt a struck on his head. "Ow!" he replied, "Something hit my head!" He turned and saw another beam of wood.
"What is this? Raining wood?" Cosmo asked.
"I don't think it's raining wood," Jimmy said nervously, as an eerie, cracking sound of wood was heard from above, "I think it's..." Before he finished the sentence, a few more wood fell from the ceiling.
"FALLING WOOD!" Timmy screamed as more and more fell from the ceiling faster than before. Everyone else screamed along with Timmy, running to avoid the falling wood.
"Quick! The game! Get the game!" Jimmy screamed.
Timmy ran toward the game which is covered in piles of wood. He dugged through them as fast as he could until he sees the game and retrieved it. He avoided a huge wood before it hit him.
"It is raining wood!" Cosmo screamed, avoiding the falling wood, "Timmy, you could've wished for umbrellas!"
"You can't protect yourself with an umbrella from the falling wood, you idiot!" Wanda cried.
"Cosmo, Wanda!" Timmy cried, "I wish the falling wood would stop!"
Cosmo and Wanda held their wands up, letting them sparkles once, but the sparkles died out on them.
"We can't, sport!" Wanda replied, "Somehow, we can't use our magic to interfere with the magic that is coming from the board game!"
"Never mind the wishing stuff!" Jimmy replied, running toward the closet, "Everyone into the closet!" He opened the closet door, letting Timmy and the fairies in. He rushed in and closed the door as the falling wood continued to fall down.
Meanwhile, downstairs at the living room, Vicky heard a couple of thumping noises while sleeping on the couch. She woke up, sounding like she's grumpy. "Hmm... What is that noise?" Then, she shrugged and put a pair of headphones in her ears. "Well, probably the twerp being miserable. Music to my ears" She chuckled evilly and went back to sleep while listening to music with her CD player.
A moment later, the falling wood had stopped. The closet door was opened by Jimmy. He pushes the door as hard as he could with all of the wood that was piling by it. He looked around Timmy's room which its floor was covered by piles of wood. "Leaping Laptons!" he replied, "I thought Timmy's room was always a mess but this is a lot worse!"
"I heard that!" Timmy cried out.
"Ok, guys," Jimmy said, "The coast is clear."
As they came out, Wanda said, "I sure do hope that Vicky didn't hear any of this."
"I'm sure that she wouldn't care," Timmy said.
"You see, Timmy?" Wanda said, "I told you something is wrong with that game!"
"Yeah, Timmy," Cosmo replied, "There is something wrong with it! You haven't read the instructions, and the board game doesn't look good with green!"
"Your holograms are right, Timmy," Jimmy said, "This game is more dangerous than we expected. Somehow, the falling wood must've came out from the game."
"No way, Jimbo," Timmy said, "Don't be such a sore. Maybe the wood from my bedroom ceiling just fell off for no reason."
"You just don't get it," Jimmy replied in frustration, grabbing the dice, "I know that the falling wood came from the game, I'm sure of it. Now, let's put the game away before anything else happens. Unless, of course, if you can play by yourself."
Timmy turned his head to the left for a moment. Then, he turned back to Jimmy, sighing in sad tone. "Ok, I understand," he said, holding out his hand, "I'll put the game away. But first, could you give me the dice?"
"Sure thing," Jimmy said, reaching out to hand the dice over. But Timmy titled his hand sideways, causing Jimmy to drop the dice on the board game. Jimmy gasped as Timmy chuckled.
"Timmy! How could you do that!" Jimmy replied angrily.
"That is not what we meant about putting the game away!" Wanda cried.
"Who says anything about putting the game away?" Timmy said.
The dice showed eight, and the elephant token began to move eight spaces. The message appeared on the orb as Jimmy began to read it, "'In the jungle you must wait until the dice read five or eight.'" He looked up at Timmy in the worried look. "I don't like the sound of it..."
Then, Timmy screamed horribly as Jimmy's hands began to absorb into the orb. Jimmy screamed when he noticed it.
"Cosmo! Wanda! I wish Jimmy wouldn't get suck into the board game!" Timmy screamed.
"We can't! Remember?" Wanda replied, "We can't interfere with magic compare to this magic in the board game!"
Timmy grunted in frustration, "Then, I have to grab him!" He tried grabbing Jimmy, but it was too late. Jimmy was already sucked into the orb in the center. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Timmy screamed as he cried his tears out.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Cosmo cried out.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Wanda screamed out.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Dark Laser who appeared out of nowhere screamed.
Everyone stopped screaming and looked at Dark Laser.
"Hey, why are you here?" Wanda replied, "You're not in this story!"
"Um... uh..." Dark Laser muttered, "I thought I could join in screaming with you."
