RWT: I hope so… Well while he's gone… All right as a disclaimer, I don't anything! EVEN THE PLOT! This story has been posted on this site by author Ryu who kindly gave me permission to post it after it has been taken down years ago due to the script format. So anyway… Even if my beta-reader is off somewhere right now, please enjoy the story!
It was a normal day. Johnny Bravo, was playing a game of tennis in his backyard.
And when I say tennis it would be where he would have the ball shooter shoot out a ball, and he would try to hit it by throwing tennis rackets at the ball, all the while yelling "pull"! After some time of doing this, he runs out of rackets.
He snapped his fingers. "Aw man! Now I got to find them all again!" He whined as he set out to look for the rackets.
Just as he was about to go search for them, he heard the annoying laughter of his next door neighbor, Carl.
"Oh, hi Johnny. Isn't it a beautiful day?" Carl greeted. "It makes me want to laugh with joy. I think I'll do it again. Hahahaha-"
Johnny grabbed his neighbor by the collar. "What do you want, geek boy? Can't you see that I'm busy?"
Carl brought up a finger. "I HAVE noticed that you were playing tennis a little, shall we say, incorrectly."
Johnny looked around and notices the rackets and balls all over the place. He then turned back to Carl. "What's your point?"
Carl laughed again. "Only that I used to be a champion player of badminton. I could show you a few pointers, old pal of mine." He said with his geeky smile on his face.
Johnny raised an eyebrow. "Did you say badminton?"
Carl's smile disappeared when he had now just realized the error of what he just said. He had completely forgotten that Johnny was an excellent badminton player, and a bad winner to boot. How he was able to play badminton and not tennis was another mystery.
Carl thought quickly. "Uh… I have a shiny new gizmo."
Hearing the words "shiny gizmo", the thoughts of badminton disappeared from Johnny's head as he promptly let go of Carl. "Shiny gizmo...Ooh…"
"Yep. It's at my house. Want to come over and see?" Carl asked with his geeky smile once again on his face.
"And I'll be seen at your house?" Johnny made a quick pose. "No way,"
"Aw, c'mon Johnny. It'll be fun."
Johnny posed again. "There is no force on whatever forces there are that'll make me want to…" He paused to flex again. "…Hang out with you!"
After finishing his sentence, Johnny's mother, Mama Bravo, called out to him from the kitchen. "Johnny! Mama needs you to take out the garbage!"
Johnny then suddenly grabbed Carl. "What're we waiting for! Let's go!"
-Carl's house-
So Johnny runs all the way to Carl's house at lightning speed. When they finally reach it, he drops Carl, and runs inside the house. Various breaking of items can be heard. Carl quickly runs inside just in time to stop Johnny from looking at a vase and almost tossing it over his shoulder.
"I can't find your shiny invention anywhere!" He said as he digs through another pile of junk.
"It's in my room, as where most of my inventions are."
Hearing this, Johnny quickly ran upstairs. Carl quickly followed suit.
"Ooh, it IS shiny." Johnny said as he spotted the invention.
Carl panted a bit before walking over to his gizmo. "It's not just any invention. Allow me to introduce you to what I would affectionately dub: "The fan boy delight!"".
Johnny was obviously not listening. "So where's the invention?"
"I'm pointing to it."
Johnny flexed. "Right, what'd I say?"
…
"Anyways, this fine machine will allow you to visit any world that you could possibly desire, even world of fiction. For example, should you want to visit Captain Kirk on his many epic adventures, all you need to do is insert a Star Trek video DVD of your choice, and then enter the portal…"
"Can I visit Baywatch? Ooh, babe-a-licious." Johnny interrupted, dreaming of all the hot babes there.
"Um, yeah, although I don't see why you would want-" Carl didn't finish his sentence since Johnny was trampling him.
"I want to visit Baywatch! I want to see Pamela Anderson!" Johnny cried out as he got off Carl and went through Carl's discs.
"Don't be silly, Johnny. I don't have any Baywatch episodes."
Johnny stopped searching through Carl's many discs and faced his neighbor. "Come again?"
"But I DO have a video game with lots of pretty girls. Have you ever heard of Harvest Moon?"
"No,"
"It's a great game!" Carl started enthusiastically. "You see, you star as this farmer named Jack. In it, you get to choose the name of your farm, your dog, and the main character. Chickens, sheep, and even cows can be named. You must embark on a quest of farming, daily chores, making friends, getting married, and many other responsibilities…"
Of course, Johnny wasn't listening at all. "And you said it has pretty girls in it?" Johnny interrupted.
"Well, yeah, but that's not the-"
Carl doesn't have a chance to finish, as Johnny has just grabbed the Harvest Moon game, and tossed it into the machine. Since Carl had made activation simple, Johnny pushed the big red button, and jumped inside of it.
"Johnny! Wait! I haven't even tested it yet!" Carl cried out too late. He then shrugged. "Well…What harm could he possibly do? I'll just monitor him through the communication device that came with the portal. It's a good thing I used the same chip that was in my dream machine. Isn't science fun?"
So Carl attached the communicator to the machine, and listened in, all the while holding the guidebook to "Harvest Moon: Back to Nature".
-Mineral Village: The farm-
We now see Jack talking to the Mayor Thomas about what he has to do to stay in the village. As he was speaking, a loud yell can be heard from the sky. They both looked up, only to see a rather large muscular man falling towards them. Mayor Thomas jumped out of the way just in time, but Jack wasn't so lucky. His body broke Johnny's fall.
"Ow! Where am I? And what is this lumpy thing I'm sitting on?"
"Get off me!" Jack cried out in a muffled voice.
"What? I can't hear you. Speak up!"
"GET OFF ME!"
"Oh I'm sorry, I still can't hear you. Let me get off of you." Johnny apologized as he picked himself up. "Now, what is it you were saying?"
Jack tries to get up himself but falls back down. "OW! I think my leg is broken! How am I going to run the farm now?" He cried out both in pain and dismay.
The mayor shook his head. "Hmm, that's quite a shame. I wonder what we should do now. The red clad man then thought for a while. "Oh! I know! This young man who just fell from the sky can help you. He looks like a strong and intelligent man. I think he'll be a great help to you." He turned to Johnny. "So, what do you say?"
"Sure. Alright. But only if I get to meet pretty girls." Johnny agreed dubiously.
The mayor looked confused at this. "Pretty girls? We have a lot of those in the village, if that's what you're saying."
Johnny looked closely at the Mayor. "Hey, aren't you supposed to be in the same town as those Powerpuff chicks?"
"What? I'm afraid I don't understand." Thomas said in much puzzle.
"You're the Mayor, right?" Johnny asked as he made a random pose.
"Yes,"
Johnny flexed again." And this is Townsville, right?"
"No, this is Mineral village."
"Then where are the Powerpuff girls?" Johnny asked as he posed again.
"The who?"
Jack raised his brows. "I don't know who these Powerpuff people are, but you must be thinking of another town. This place is called Mineral village."
Johnny looked at the mayor. "Why didn't you say so?"
"But I did." Thomas responded.
"No you didn't! I would've remembered."
"Oh, well, sorry about that."
"It's alright. As long as there are pretty chicks around, Johnny's happy." Johnny said as he made another pose.
Jack, all the while, was groaning at Johnny's stupidity.
"Well, it's settled. I'm Mayor Thomas. This is Jack, the owner of this farm. What's your name?" The mayor said as he brought out his hand to shake Johnny's.
"Johnny," He posed before shaking the mayor's hand. "Johnny Bravo."
"Well then, allow me to give you two the grand tour of the village. Just follow me."
"In case you've forgotten, one of my legs isn't working at the moment." Jack popped in annoyance.
"Oh, that's right. Sorry about that. Johnny, could you carry him?"
"But I don't want to!" Johnny objected in a whiny voice.
"Now, now don't you want to help Jack out?"
"Um...No, not really."
"Don't you want to meet the villagers?"
"Um... No, not really."
Jack crossed his arms. "Then I suppose you're not interested seeing any girls, either."
At the sound of "girls", Johnny quickly picked up both Jack and the mayor. "What're we waiting for! Let's go!"
During the tour, Jack manages to stop Johnny from running, and allows the mayor to start the tour.
"This is the blacksmiths shop. Go there whenever you want a tool upgraded, or if you want to make a present or something." The mayor started when they stopped by the blacksmith's shop. Johnny then raised a hand.
"Yes?"
"Did you say, presents?" Johnny asked.
"Um… yes."
Johnny then ran inside. A few seconds later, comes out. "Hey! I don't see any presents!"
Jack rolled his eyes. "It's because you have to make them yourself." Idiot!
The mayor then walked over to the winery. "Moving on, right next to it is the winery. You can buy wine from Manna, the Dukes wife. Just don't eat from the vineyard and everything will be…" He suddenly noticed that Johnny had disappeared. "Johnny? Where did he go?"
Jack pointed to the vineyard.
Johnny was eating the grapes. "Mmm, juicy!" He mumbled as he continued to stuff his mouth with the berries.
"Johnny! Stop eating those!" The mayor cried out in shock.
Johnny halted and looked at the mayor. "But I found them on the vine."
"That might be true, but those belong to somebody else. I'll cover for you this time, but try to be more careful in the future." The mayor said as Johnny walked over to them.
Johnny nodded. "Yes, sir. " He then whispered to Jack, "Haha! He likes me better than you!"
Jack just rolled his eyes on the comment.
After the tour ended, the three were back on the farm. Jack now had a cast on his leg and was leaning on a crutch.
"It's a good thing that the doctor was working today. I'm also glad that it was just a sprung ankle." The mayor said as he pointed to Jack's cast.
Jack looked at Johnny. "Did you really have to play with his tools!"
"He said that I was special." Johnny countered.
Jack then chuckled at what the doctor REALLY meant.
"Well, you know where everything is and what to do. I wish you two the best of luck." The mayor said as he waved off.
When the mayor left, Jack looked around at the pile of weeds and lumber pieces that were around the farm.
Jack rolled up his sleeves. "Well, we have a lot of work ahead of us. We might as well get started."
Johnny was playing with the puppy. "Okay, I'll be here if you need me."
The farmer frowned. "I meant that WE have a lot of work ahead of us. I'll start gathering the lumber pieces. You can start pulling the weeds." He then started to pick up some of the wood lying around the field.
Johnny didn't want to work but he couldn't help noticing that there was a weed in front of him. Due to his lack of intellect, he thought that the weed was making fun of him.
Johnny looked at the weed with a frown. "You're talking to me? I said, you're talking to ME? I know you're talking to me, so, are you talking to ME?"
…
"So that's how you want to play it, do you? I'll show YOU a thing or two!" He roared as he yanked out the weed, then throws it out, which magically vanishes.
He notices this. "Cool!" He then pulls out another weed, and watches the same results. "Double cool!"
He made a pose. "I have magical powers!" He said excitedly as he continued to enthusiastically pull out the weeds.
Meanwhile, Jack has just finished bringing all of the lumber into the shed, fed the dog, bought some seeds, got the horse, and all of the other stuff he would normally do on his first day in the game. However, since his ankle was sprung, it took him somewhat longer. He was now returning to the barn.
"I sure hope that Johnny managed to finish with those weeds." He said to himself as he hobbled towards the entrance of his farm.
He couldn't help but feel surprise when he saw the completely cleared fields. "Wow, Johnny, you actually did it. You even managed to till the ground. How did you do it?"
Johnny looked at him with a confused face as he held up a dead gopher. "What are you talking about? I was critter hunting!"
Jack slightly chuckled. "Well, as long as it's done." He then hands Johnny a turnip. "Here, take this to the pond that's by the spring and drop it in there. It'll be an offering to the Harvest Goddess. I'll start planting these seeds."
That'll keep him from messing up anything.
-Pond-
"I wonder how could throwing vegetables into a pond cause someone good luck."
He made a pose, the turnip on his hand. "Some people can be pretty stupid." He looked at the pond. "I bet it's a wishing well!" He took a penny out of his pocket, and threw it into the water. "I wish to meet a pretty girl. Oops! I forgot about this." He then chucked the turnip in too.
Two seconds later, the Harvest Goddess appears before Johnny in all her splendor.
"Hello, Johnny, I thank you for the gift."
"Wishes really DO come true!" Johnny exclaimed as he grabs the goddess and dips her.
"Excuse me, but what are you doing!" The goddess demanded.
"You came from the pond like the lady of the lake. Allow me to be your, knight in shining armor."
The goddess was furious but she controlled herself. "I'm feeling generous today. Leave now, or I will be forced to punish you!"
"I got a better idea. How about you and me do a whole lot of loving?" Johnny suggested impulsively.
ZAP!
"Insolent human! You dare use a lousy pick up line on me?" The goddess roared as she floated back to the pond.
Johnny was totally singed from the sudden lightning bolt that the goddess conjured. "Shocking relationship," But he just shook it off. "But never mind that. How might I prove my worthiness to you?" He asked after making another flex.
"By being a good worshipper,"
"Does that mean you'll go out with me if I do?"
"NO!"
"I'll do it!" Johnny said as he sped back to the farm.
The goddess shook her head. "Why did this village let such an idiot in here? I hope I don't see him again." She then went back to the water.
-Farm-
It was evening now, so Johnny just went inside the house.
Jack was cleaning up the dishes. "What took you so long? Not that I'm complaining."
"I just saw a beautiful chick, and she said that if I be a good worshipper to her, she'll go out with me."
Jack slowly put the plate and sponge down. "Johnny, what does this "chick" look like?"
Johnny placed a finger on his chin. "She had pretty green hair, purple eye makeup, and she came out of the water when I threw a penny and a turnip in it."
Jack's eyes bulged in surprise. "You mean, THE Harvest Goddess actually appeared before YOU!"
Johnny nodded. "Yep, and she was pretty." He grinned as he made a pose. "Not as pretty as me, of course, but pretty close."
"I just hope you didn't anger her or anything." Jack said with worry. He then turned around to see Johnny sleeping.
…
"Oh well. I might as well turn in."
-Next day-
It was six in the morning. Jack rose out of bed, refreshed from his sleep. He tried to wake Johnny, but to no avail. So he went outside, greeted the police officer who told him to be on the lookout for any suspicious character, filled his watering canteen, went back inside, and then poured the contents on Johnny's face, instantly waking him.
"Aaah! Flood!" He yelped. Johnny jumped out from the sofa. He then saw that it was only Jack. "Hey! What's the big idea waking me up like that!"
"As a farmer, we must wake up every morning to do our chores."
"What's your point?"
Jack shook his head. "Never mind," He then handed the blond some money. "Can you take that to Lilia and pick up that chicken from the poultry farm? I have to wait for Barley to bring the horse to me."
"Alright, but there better not be anymore chores."
"With that great job you did yesterday, all we need to do is forage." Jack replied.
"Alright, but you better be right." Johnny said as he waved off.
As long as I keep him doing simple chores, there's no way things can go wrong. I mean, what can be so hard about picking up a chicken egg?
-Poultry Farm-
Meanwhile; Johnny arrived at the poultry farm. He went inside, and saw Lilia in the kitchen, and Rick watching the fireplace. Johnny walked over to Rick.
"So, what's on?"
Rick looked up from the fireplace and faced Johnny. "Oh, hi Johnny, I heard about you from the mayor. I hope we can be great friends."
Oh great! Another Carl!
"Can I help you?" Lilia asked.
Upon seeing Lilia, Johnny ran over to her. "So, what's a nice young lady like you doing in a farm like this?"
Lilia giggled. "You're quite the charmer, aren't you?"
"That's why they call me Johnny, the chick magnet."
Rick suddenly stood up. "Hey! Stay away from my mother!"
"Beat it, geek face."
"Mom! Make him go away!"
"Oh Rick. You can be such a baby sometimes." Lilia said as she handed Johnny a chicken. "Here's what you wanted. That'll be 1,000 gold."
Johnny takes the chicken and takes out some gold from his pocket. "I don't have any gold, but I DO have this money." He then hands the money to her.
Lilia giggled. "You're such a kidder!"
He made a pose. "Well, I got to go. There's a lot of chick watching to do." He then walked out of the door.
"Wait for me, Johnny!"
Johnny turned around to see Rick running over to him. "What do you want!" He then noticed that Rick's voice seemed slightly different.
"It's me, Carl! I'm using this telepathic link through my machine to communicate with you through Rick. That way, I can help you out wherever you go! YAAYY!" Rick-Carl said happily.
After hearing this, Johnny grabbed him and threw him to the river.
Upon hitting the water, Rick normalizes. "Ah! Help! I can swim but someone help me!" He cried out as the current carries him away.
"Geek,"
Just as soon as he turns around, he notices a young woman looking at him quizzically. She had pink hair, red eyes, and a red skirt with a white top and black vest.
The lady smiled at him. "Hello. I'm Popuri. The mayor has already told us about you and Jack."
Johnny suddenly grabbed her and dipped her. "Did anyone ever tell you that you have such pretty eyes?"
"Really? Most people think they look odd."
"I like them. They're all nice and shiny."
Popuri was feeling uncomfortable with both her position and what Johnny is trying to say. "Um, could you let me go?"
"You promise not hit me and run away?"
Popuri raised a brow in confusion. "Um, sure."
Johnny then let her go. "Good. Anyways, the name's Johnny, Johnny Bravo."
"I know. The mayor already told me that."
"Is your hair naturally pink?" Johnny asked from sheer curiosity.
Popuri didn't hear his question as she looked at the river. "Um, why did you throw my brother in the river?"
"Cause he was being a jerk."
Popuri frowned at this. "My brother is always acting like that! He's always so overprotective and mean!"
Johnny pointed a finger at her. "You talk funny."
Popuri then just looked at him in puzzle.
"So do you want to go out?" He then suddenly shielded his face. "Don't hit me!"
"But I just met you."
"Well when you've met Johnny, you've met the best." Johnny said as he proceeded to pose.
"Well, I'll think about it." Popuri said giving some interest at the thought.
"Okay, but don't take too long. The harvest goddess already said that she'll go out with me if I'm good enough."
Popuri was confused for a moment. She then laughed. "Oh, it's a joke! Good one!" She then walked away.
Johnny eventually leaves and reaches the farm. He puts the chicken in the coop, and read a note that was attached to the door. The note said that Jack had gone to the hot springs and will be back soon.
Johnny made a pose excitedly. "Hot springs? I'm there!"
-Hot springs-
He walks to the hot springs, and notices Jack talking to this other woman. She had dirt blonde hair, blue shorts, a white shirt, and a purple vest. He walked over to the two and dips the girl.
"Hi, Want to find out why I was named mister congeniality?"
"Johnny! Put Karen down!" Jack said in alarm.
"Don't worry, Jack." Karen said calmly. "I can handle this." She then grabbed the branch nearby and…
BONK!
"Ow," Johnny said as he collapsed to the ground.
Jack looked at the fallen Johnny. "Can't say that you didn't deserve it."
"Jack? Let's finish our talk over by the mountain."
Jack nodded. "Alright," He then turned to Johnny who was up again. "YOU, stay here. Enjoy the springs or something."
So both Karen and Jack leave, leaving Johnny to perform all types of dives inside the hot spring.
RWT: Actually I think this will have faster uploads since I have the whole copied file in my folder. Though I need to find a way to make that "he made a pose" less annoying…. Hmmm… Please review!
