The Mutation Situation
Part 1: Origins
James Issac Neutron better known as Jimmy Neutron was a genius to say the least, he had graduated from highschool at age ten, college at age twelve and is credited by the scientific community as fith smartest person on the planet. At his graduation from college he would run into the father of his old kindergarden friend, General Sam Vortex.
"James its been awhile, how've you been?" General Vortex greeted him with a strong confident voice.
"Uhm...fine."Jimmy replied trying not to seem intimidated.
A few seconds later Jimmy's parents walked up to them.
General Vortex looked up at them, "Hugh, Judy, great to see you again. What's it been?"
"Three maybe four years." Hugh replied happily walking to shake the generals hand.
"What are you doing here?" Judy asked suspiciously while walking to Jimmy and holding his hand.
The General walked up to her, "I came her to see James. There is a project I would like him to over see."
"What kind of project?" Judy asked looking concerned.
The General replied, "Can't talk here, this is top secret meet me at the base and we'll talk." before walking away.
"Sure thing buddy." Hugh said waving while his wife simply looked worried with Jimmy simply staring.
After a long car ride though the desert the Neutrons finally made it.
At the entrance of the base, General Vortex was waiting for them in his uniform wearing his varies medals.
"Welcome Neutrons how was the trip? Thirsty, Hungry?" he greeted them.
Judy looked at him unimpressed while Hugh happily replied, "Sure I could go for a purle flurp, how about you Jimbo?"
Jimmy looked at his father happily shaking his head to indicate yes.
"Excellent his way, we'll grab a quick drink then discuss business." said the general.
After going to the kitchen and reminiscing about the old days the General finally led the Neutrons to the lab.
"Wow is that is that a bozon collider?! And is that a holographic interfacer?!" Jimmy screamed excitedly.
"Yup, we have all the the toys here." General Vortex said with much pride.
"This is what I wanted to show you." The General said a bit more proffessionally.
He then walked them over to what looked like a pile of rocks.
"What is that?" Judy asked.
"That was Captain Nathanal Saunders." The General answered seriously.
"What happened to him?" asked Jimmy.
The General sighed, "On a mission to to repair the space stations outer shell Captain Saunders was hit by a small meteorite cracking his helmet, they were able to get him inside in time and all seemed well until he got home, he began to mutate his skin turning into some kind of organic rock substance, we sent more astronauts to get the meteor fragment and when we brought it here it was emmiting a different form of cosmic energy, our researchers discovered it was from the Van Pattern Belt."
"So what is it you exactly want from our son?" questioned Judy.
"I believe that we can create individuals that can do things normal humans cannot." answered the general.
"So in short you want me to help you create super soldiers." Jimmy commented.
Walking up him the general answered "Yes."
"I'll do it." Jimmy said with a happy expression.
His mother looked at him in shock and asked, " Are you sure about this?"
"Yes mom, this is the opportunity of a life time, I would be hounered to create the next generation of the human race, but I won't do unless you two say its okay."
Judy and Hugh took a moment to talk in private before approaching Jimmy and General Vortex, "We'll let Jimmy do this on condition Sam, you promise to protect our boy, because if you don't Sam you will regret the day you ever came to that graduation. Do you understand me." said Judy in a very threatening voice.
"I promise on my daughters life you have my word." replied General Vortex in a very serious tone.
"Then what are we waiting for. Let's get started." Jimmy screamed excitedly.
Three Years Later, Jimmy was walking down a hall with an angry expression on his face, as he entered the room he saw General Vortex on his phone talking to someone, "Listen sweety I'm sorry I couldn't make it today, I promise I will make it up to you." the phone call ended abruptly, "Hello, hello, ahghhh!" he looked at Jimmy, "Trust me James never have children."
"I'll take that into consideration." replied Jimmy with a serious face.
"Okay James, what do you want?" asked the general while rubbing his forehead.
"I was going to ask what you thought you were doing? The Neutron chamber isn't ready yet." Jimmy said with an angry expression.
"I understand your concern James, but our simulations show that it will work." the general said in a calm voice.
"Ya but I still believe we need to run more tests before we begin with human testing." Jimmy explained calming down.
The general walked up to him, "Listen here James you've been a great help to me, nothing we have now could have been accompolished without you, but men like you tend to be too cautious for your own good, we'll continue as planned."
"But!" Jimmy tried to explain.
"Thats an order." the general calmly explained before walking off, leaving Jimmy with a very frustrated look.
Thirty minutes later the general and Jimmy walked into a room, looking straight ahead at the saftey glass that was supposed to protect them from any radiation.
Beyond the glass was a massive machine with four chambers on its side, four men walked in each entering a chamber.
"Comence final saftey precautions." Jimmy ordered.
"All is well sir." said one of the technicians.
"Input the sample." ordered Jimmy.
A crane carring a meteorite far bigger than the original sample put the new sample in the middle of the machine.
"Comence count down." ordered Jimmy.
The technician responded "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 and engage."
The machine began to turn on causing the meteorite to glow a deep blue and purlple colour.
"All seems to be going well." said the general.
"Ya for now" Jimmy said at one of the technicians he asked, "Hey are you going to finish that?" pointing at his can of orange juice.
"Ah, no sir." said the technician giving it to him while watching him drink it all.
Then out of knowhere the meteorite began glowing brighter making the machine begin to malfunction.
"Whats happening!" shouted the general.
"The meteorite is generating more power than the chamber can handle. Abort it now!" shouted Jimmy.
"We can't sir! its gone critical!" Screamed the technician.
"Take cover!" screamed Jimmy just before the chamber exploded sending out a massive energy pulse.
Two hours before the explosion.
Cynthia Aurora Vortex better known as Cindy Vortex is described as a self driven, overachieving girl. As the daughter of General Sam Vortex, she presents herself with grace and majesty. She always tries to do her best, she joined many clubs and is president for most of them which include Student Council, Tai Kwan Do and Physics. On the day her dad decided to break his promise to her life would change forever.
"Mom, I'm home." Cindy announced excitedly.
"Hello dear how was school?" asked her mother Susan.
"Great, is dad back yet?" Cindy asked.
"Unfortunately not dear, but you could help me prepare his welcome home dinner." Susan answered.
"Sure!" Cindy answered with much enthusiasm.
After spending a few minutes helping her mom prepare for the dinner Cindy waited excitedly, after an hour and a half had passed she decided to phone him.
After the dial rings she asked him, "Dad we're waiting for you, when are you coming home?"
After not liking what she heard, she immediately threw the phone on the ground, "Dads not coming I'm going to go for a run."
Susan tried to comfort her, "Cindy I'm sorry your father didn't show up."
"It doesn't matter, he's never around anyway." she replied before leaving the house.
Cindy liked to push herself when she worked out, she would wear custom weights on her arms and legs, because she was so frustrated with her father she went for a night run around the neighborhood by herself.
When she was on a final lap around the neighborhood, Cindy noticed the clear sky turn dark and cloudy and with hints of blue in she could even grasp what was happening she saw the energy pulse.
"What is that?" she thought to herself.
She looked around to see if anybody was around, but the street was empty there was no one in sight as the pulse drew closer to her she ran from it, but before she could turn her head to see how close it was to her the pulse hit her knocking her forward, sending her flying through the air hitting the ground and knocking her out.
Two hours before the explosion.
Sheen Juarrera Estevez is a hyperactive, loud, flirtatious and easily distracted guy with a bit of an obsession with a fictional hero named Ultra Lord.
He lives with his Father, Grandmother and four younger siblings. Since his father is the only one that works and he has all those mouths to feed, Sheen has taken it upon himself to help his family taking morally questionable actions.
At the back of an ally, two young men are about to meet up.
"Shawn, are you here?" whispered Sheen.
"Ya, did you get the stuff we need?" asked the tall muscular african american boy.
"Its all here, for the job tonight." Sheen answered.
Shawn looked at the contents of the bag, "Okay, go home and get dressed we'll meet back here in an hour."
After their conversation both went in different direction to go and prepare.
Sheen's house one hour twenty minutes before the explosion.
Sheen entered his home a very humble place, his siblings were playing all over while his grandmother was asleep on the couch. He went straight into his room to change.
His room was filled with posters, action figures and videogames of the comic book hero Ultra Lord.
As Sheen got dressed he looked at himself in the mirror and asked himself, "What are you doing sheen?"
He then looked at a picture of his family and thought, "Remember your doing this for your family."
He finshied getting ready and left his house.
Thirty minutes before the explosion.
Sheen and Shawn met again at the same ally.
Shawn brought Sheen to the window of a building connected to the alley, " Okay Sheen this is simple, inside there are the new relaeses of The Ultra Lord video game. We can sell them for double early on the black market while keeping one or two for ourselves."
"Okay, simple." Sheen said nervously.
They used thier equipment to break into the building using a device of Sheen's design to shut off the motion sensors in an area.
They began to plant all sorts of games into a duffle bag, "I think we have enough." Sheen commented.
Shawn as he looked at another crate, "No, not yet."
As he went to it, Sheen shouted,"No, not that one! You'll trip the motion sensors!"
Sheen was to late, because Shawn caused the silent alarm to activated.
Before they new it the police had already arrived shooting tear gas through the windows.A few broke through the door.
Shawn retaliated by taking out a flame thrower and started firing it at the police.
"Shawn what are you doing!" screamed Sheen.
"What I have to!" replied Shawn.
And out of knowhere a cop shot at Shawns tank coausing it to explode and him to be enveloped in fire.
"Ahh! Sheen help me!" screamed Shawn.
Seeing the situation for what is was Sheen ditched the bags, jumped out the window and abandoned Shawn.
As he ran down the street for dear life he saw a few cops pursuing him on foot he thought it was the end of him, then he saw the pulse from behind.
He saw it envelope the cops knocking them out, and as he tried to out run it, going as fast as he could but it eventually caught up with him enveloping him as well.
Thirty minutes the before explosion.
Carlton Ulysses Wheezer, better known as Carl Wheezer is a nervous, cowardly, glutonous, peesimistic, wimpy,pathetic, insecure boy who has an unhealthy obsession with Llamas that could rival Sheen's obsession with Ultra Lord.
He and his family are practically allergic to everything, so it makes his interaction with people and things limited.
Carl was walking down the hallway minding his own business, whistling a little tune to himself when the school bully Butch ran into him, "Sup Weener got the cash?"
"Ahh...Yes Butch." Carl answered nervously.
Carl handed Butch some money, "Is this all you got?"
"Uhm...Yes." Carl answered even more nervously.
"Come with me." Butch ordered Carl as he dragged him into the boys bathroom.
"Drink up, Weener!" ordered Butch as he shoved Carl'shead into a toilet.
"Blurp!, Blurp!, Blurp!" Carl screamed, desperately trying to breath.
As Butch threw Carl to the floor, "Next time Weener bring more money." as he walked out the door, "You should count yourself lucky weener, if it wasn't for me you would have no one to talk to. "
As he left Carl grabbed toilet paper and tried to wipe his face, " I really wish he would leave me alone."
Carl walked himself home alone, because of his health problems many people didn't want to hang around him. A few people would try but he new it was only an act.
Before he went home he went to the local hangout The Candy Bar.
"Hey Sam, give me a six pack of purple flurp." Carl asked the bartender and owner Sam.
"Hey Carl, whats the occasion having friends over?" Sam asked in a cheerful tone.
"Nope." he answered as he paid for the drinks and left for his house.
Carl liked to play a game with himself beat that burp where he would see who could give the loudest and longest burp.
Sadly he didnt have anyone to play with so he would play by himself trying to beat his best.
He entered his room, it was full of llama posters and toys(similar to Sheens room)ready to play by himself.
Before he started he looked out the window and thought to himself, "Man I wish I had friends or at the very least have the power to stop that jerk Butch."
As he played the game by himself, Carl heard a large boom before he could wonder what it was the pulse already hit his house shattering the windows, knocking him into a wall.
Several hours Before the explosion.
Liberty Danielle Folfax, better known as Libby Folfax is a intelligent, stylish, sophisticated, calm, mellow and down to earth girl.
She has a strong sense of family, and is very dependable. Her worst quality is she is abit full of herself and cares way to much about her appearnce.
Libby heard her alarm clock go off, she growned and hit the snooze button.
She then began her morning beauty routine. She would work out and practice gymnastics for about an hour, bathe herself in water purified by speacial oils, spend an hour deciding what to wear, another hour on her hair and finally add a dab of her favourite vanishing cream to her face before getting ready for school.
"Bye mom." she called preparing to exit through the door.
"Hold on! Young Lady!" her mother ordered, "You're not going anywhere until you eat something."
"But mom!" Libby said preparing to defend herself.
"I won't hear any of it, you skipped dinner last night, now sit!" her mother ordered.
Libby obeyed as she nibbled her food, she then looked at her brother who was sitting across from her,
"Where did you get that watch Shawn?"
"None of your business runt." he answered.
"None of that you two no fighting!" their mother told them both. They both obeyed
Shawn told his mother, "That reminds me mom, I meeting up with a friend later so I might be late from school."
"Okay but call if you are coming late." their mother replied.
Libby could hear the engine of the bus coming, " Well thats the school bus, I'm off."
She dashed out the door, "But you've barly touched your food!" her mother shouted.
"Mm mm mm, what am I going to do with that child." she said to herself.
Two hours before the explosion.
Libby was walking herself home from school with a group of friends talking about music, celebrities etc...
She saw her brother meeting up with a boy wearing a Ultra Lord shirt, "Ah guys, you go on ahead i'll catch up."
After Libby left her friends she confronted her brother, "Shawn what are you doing? Are you trying to get yourself arrested?"
Shawn screamed, "Look here runt you dont know what you are talking about!"
"I know what ever your up to is definately not legal." she shouted.
"Just stay out of my business." Shawn shouted.
"Your funeral." Libby said to herself.
Thrity minutes the before explosion.
When Libby got home she woud do a similar routine to her moring one except no excercise, hair styling or outfit hunting.
As she sat on her dresser applying more of her vanishing cream wondering to herself, "I wonder if shawn is okay?"
Before she had anytime to process these thoughts she saw a very bright flash followed by the pulse hitting her house.
In the aftermath Jimmy got out of some rubble and heard a ringing in his ears. As his vision began to clear up, he saw the destruction that was left behind by the explosion.
"What happened!?" Jimmy said in a groaning voice.
A soldier helped him, "The reactor went critical causing a explosion, sir."
As one of the soldier's helped General Vortex he asked, " How many Causalties were they?"
"It's unknown right now sir we are still looking for survivors." responded the solider.
"What about Jones, Mark, Johnson and Stables the test subjects?" asked the general.
The soldier looked at him with a saddened face, "Sir their nothing but ash now."
General Vortex clenched his fist in frustration and asked, "James how could this have happened?!"
Jimmy still disoriented answered, "The cosmic radiation was too great for the chamber to contain."
While speaking, Jimmy's skin changed colour to orange and his hair turned green, every one began to stare.
"What?" he asked.
A soldier pulled out a mirror and held it out to Jimmy. He grabed the mirror and shouted, "No!" before throwing it to the ground, breaking it.
While that was happening the general got a phone call, "Hello,(Other side of phone call) Susan I can' t talk right now there has been and accident(other side of phone call) What happened to Cindy?!"
On the other side of the base the rocky remains of Captain Saunders began to move.
Well that was my first chapter hope you liked it. Looking forward to the reviews.
