Looking For Home Chapter Two: Lost And Unfound

(A/N: Picture this: An ocean views right off the shore of a Mediterranean island. It's calm, except for the occasional wave. Unfortunately, the bubbles and the sudden surfacing of a male figure break the calmness. Its Jimmy.)

His head shoots out of the water and spits some out like a fountain. He's panting and gulping for air. He looks around as if he thought he was being followed. He looks toward the island.

"Greaaaat!" he said to himself sarcastically.

Soon another figure, this time Cindy, exploded out of the water gasping for air. Jimmy glanced at her, then shook his head.

"Every time I'm around you, I end up in the ocean!"

Cindy, still out of breath, glared at him.

"Well, where the heck are we, Nerdtron? I mean, Neutron."

Jimmy shrugged. He looks around then takes a deep breath and dives back under the water. Cindy looks around under the water while still above the surface. She can't see a thing, because the water is too murky.

"Jimmy?" She whimpered.

She finally gives up and starts to swim toward the island. On her way she notices a cluster of bubbles, so she stops and starts to examine the bubbles closer when she sees something under the water moving. Her eyes get large when she feels some thing grab and release her ankle. She started to scream when what ever it was started to surface. At least she does until Jimmy turned out to be the one causing her grief. When he appeared in front of her he had a big smile on his face. Cindy, however, went from a look of fear to a look of frustration in about three seconds.

"What?" he asked innocently.

"Nothing!" she snapped.

"Oh, good, I thought I scared ya or somethin'. I didn't scare ya, did I?" he said with a sly smile creeping across his face.

"NO! Maybe. I don't know, a little, I guess."

Jimmy started to laugh at her choice of words.

"Oh, Jimmy, just move!"

She pushed him out of the way and started swimming toward the island again. Jimmy scowled at her and sticks out his tongue.

"I saw that!" she yelled over her shoulder.

Jimmy was taken aback but recovered quickly. He dove back under the water; he swims quicker under water, and got to the beach of the island before Cindy. Of course, he was more out of breath than her.

When she finally got up on the beach with him, he just smiled and flopped down to rest.

"What took ya so long?"

"Oh, just shut up!"

Cindy sat down beside him while Jimmy laughed.

(Back In Retroville)

"Okay, I found it!" Sheen yelled.

He was sitting at Jimmy's big computer in the lab. He stared up at the giant screen, smiling broadly. Libby ran over to him excitedly.

"What did you find?" she asked eagerly.

"Huh?"

"What did you FIND? You said you found something. What was it?"

"Oooh! An Ultra-crystal."

"A what?"

"An Ultra-crystal. In my game Ultralord vs. the clam-hoppers!"

"ULTRALORD!" Libby began, slapping her forehead, "Sheen! You were supposed to be searching for the Mediterranean location!"

"Huh? Oh, yeah, that! I found that a while a go."

"WHAT? Why didn't you tell me?" she asked snatching the collar of his shirt.

""I-I-I d-don't know. I'll b-bring it up if y-you want."

Libby released his shirt.

"Sorry, Sheen."

He nodded and turned back to the, luckily, paused game. He minimized it and brought up the Google site. It was already on the Mediterranean mini site.

"Thank you."

Sheen nodded again and leaned back so Libby could see it better. She read on the site (www.islandguide.biz/mediterranean) (real site);

The Mediterranean islands offer a rich variety of sights, cultures, cuisines and cultures. Nowhere on earth is so much history concentrated in and around a single sea. The Mediterranean is the birthplace of western civilization and there is plenty of archaeology left to see along with some of the best beaches, walks and nightlife in the world.

The Mediterranean diet is particularly healthy with its reliance on olive oil, fresh vegetables and fish. There are strong themes running throughout the different cuisines of the region reflecting the historical background, agricultural traditions and climate. For example, pitta bread served with humous (crushed chick peas, olive oil and tahini) and olives is a common snack served from Greece to North Africa.

The Mediterranean climate is sub-tropical and generally pleasant. Summers are hot and dry, with seasonal strong winds from North Africa. Winters are generally mild but wetter with occasional stormy conditions. The normally placid Mediterranean Sea can be whipped into a surprisingly rough body of water outside the summer months.

"Amazing." Was all she could say.

Libby sat back and sighed.

"Okay, now we have to find which island. That shouldn't be so hard, how long could that take?"

Sheen shrugged.

"Look it up."

Libby nodded and type in 'Mediterranean islands' then hit search. She clicked on the first one that listed islands. When the site came up, her jaw dropped. The site was (en. (real site). Some of the islands were as follows; Italian islands Sardinia, Sicily, Ischia, Capri, Procida, Pelagie Islands, Lampedusa, Linosa, Lampione, Tuscan, Archipelago, Elba, Pianosa, Capraia, Gorgona, Giglo, Montecristo, and Giannutri.

"Okay, its official. I'm bored."

"Maybe Goddard could just find them." Sheen suggested.

"Sheen, that's just… actually, that might work." Libby said shocked that Sheen would think of something like that.

"Yeah!" Sheen smiled, "and if he can't then we could transport Goddard and the hovercar to the Mediter… whatever it was called."

Libby hugged him laughing.

"Sheen when did you get so smart."

"Oh, that's easy, ya see a long time ago I decided that being a genus would be to much pressure, so, I disposed of my very scientifical mind with TV and sugar. Or at least half of It." He said the last part dramatically and then winked at his now happy girlfriend.

(Back to the island.)

While Sheen and Libby were trying to find out about the Mediterranean, Jimmy and Cindy found fresh water and started to build a camp. It was one small house with two even smaller rooms. (Not anything like their two separate high tech tree houses like on the episode 'Stranded.') After they finished with the house they stepped back to admire their handy work.

"Nice." Jimmy whispered to himself more then Cindy.

Cindy had the opposite reaction, she snarled her nose at the hideous shack.

"Uck!"

"What?" Jimmy asked insulted.

"That, that, thing. It's a monstrosity."

"Well, I like it."

"Well, you would. Monstrosities like to stick together."

"Is that why you wear those clothes?"

Cindy couldn't think of a come back so she just gave him the evil eye. Jimmy rolled his eyes and smiled. He had got the evil eye from Cindy so much it didn't bother him any more.

"Look, Cindy, if you don't like it you don't have to sleep in it." He said matter-o-factly.

"As if. I'm not going to sleep out here!" She retorted still glaring at him.

Jimmy sighed and looked up at the sky.

"It's getting late I'm gonna hind some grub then I'm going to bed."

"I don't care what ya do!"

"Fine! I just thought you should know, so you don't get worr…uh…so ya don't think you're alone."

"Yeah right! I don't know if you know this, Neutron, but I CAN take care of myself. And I definitely don't need YOU to look after ME!"

"FINE!"

"FINE!"

Jimmy stoked off, very much angry with 'that little B'.

When he finally got back, Cindy was in the shack on her side…Crying? He knocked on the wall.

"Knock. Knock."

"Go away."

" Brought you some fruit." He held up a string of different types of fruits."

"Not hungry."

Jimmy sighed and lied the fruits on the foot of her makeshift bed. He turned and walk into his side and lied down. She did need him, she was just to proud to admit it. Then again, so was he and he knew both facts. He took a deep breath 'I'll figure this out somehow' he thought and with that still on his mind his eyes grew heavier and he slowly fell asleep.
