Sorry for the late update, I've been busy with everything. But this story is finally wrapping up so any suggestions would be fantastic!
"But what about older me?"
"Older you should be fine and come back to at any moment but come on we gotta go!"
They ran back into the school building quickly pushing their way through the crowd
"Whoa where's the fire?" yelled a tall boy glaring at them
"Geez look out!" another girl growled
They ignored the ongoing comments as they made it to the middle of the dance floor
Cindy looked around carefully trying to see through the dimly lit room
"No sign of older you or young BG, but I see.."
"You see..?
Something caught her attention and she focused on it intently
You see what?!"
"Libby!"
"Really...Libby?" he replied annoyed
"Cindy! You don't know how happy I am to see you!"
"Can't you two save your little girly get together until you know… after WE SAVE THE FUTURE"
"Can it Neutron! Libby here was actually following young BG"
Jimmy turned around "Wait, so you know where they went?"
"Yeah I saw her lead older Jimmy into that hallway over there" Libby pointed "But I had to come back to find you guys for backup because she's got Sheen and Carl!"
"Oh man are they okay?"
"For now, but I don't trust her.. she's completely whack"
They followed after Libby as she led the way
Even though they were running it seemed to Cindy as though everything went by in slow motion. She saw a blur of colors as she raced by everyone's brightly colored dresses and tuxes. Her chest rose and fell steadily as her heart raced against her. She was worried that it might be too late and all their hard work this far was a complete waste. She felt a twinge of guilt as she thought of how she betrayed her future self. She didn't want to end up alone and bitter like she had seen herself earlier when BG took over Retroville. That wasn't her. The spark that was once there was diminished and she couldn't bare the thought of that becoming her new reality.
She then looked over to the boy running right beside her. A look of determination was prevalent on his face. She was happy to know that he was as adamant about saving their future as she was. It was probably because he didn't want to end up being BG's slave or some mindless robot but maybe just maybe, he wasn't too disgusted by the fact that he ended up marrying her after all.
Sheen and Carl stood waiting at the end of the hallway
"Hey guys! Where's older Jimmy and young BG?"
They just stared back blankly
Libby put her hands on her hips "Can't you see I'm talking to you two? the least you could do is answer... rude "
"Kill. them. Kill. them." They began to chant as they walked towards them
"Err..Libs, I don't think they're here to talk" Cindy backed away cautiously
"They've been hypnotized!"
"Geez state the obvious why don't ya Neutron? Can't you put that big brain to good use like I don't know maybe helping us out here!" She retorted taking a karate stance
He pressed the button on his watch repeatedly
"Crap! Needs to recharge"
"Kill. them. Kill them. Kill them." Sheen and Carl walked closer
Libby turned to Jimmy "Alright could you hurry up and think of a plan before uh we don't even have a future"
"Think.. Think.. Think.." Jimmy muttered while closing his eyes
"Brain blast!"
"Libby do you still have your CC?"
"Yeah! I don't see how it'll help though.."
"Oh you'll see.." He smiled "Can you give it to me?"
Libby handed him the CC, as he took it from her he looked down at it confused "You put a glittery case on it?"
"I thought it could use some flair"
Jimmy rolled his eyes as he proceeded to dial
Goddard showed up on the hologram call
"Hey boy! I need you to come here quick! Sending you the coordinates now" he pushed send before hanging up
Cindy grew frustrated "How is your dog gonna help us?
"Guys! They aren't looking like they're joking right now" Libby gulped as she watched them continue to approach
Suddenly Goddard flew into the hallway where they were
"Goddard! Sheen and Carl wanna see your new trick so go show em! Play dead boy!"
Goddard then blew up into a thousand pieces causing Sheen and Carl to fly backwards and land roughly on the ground
"Okay girls! Let's make a run for it!
They rushed to the other end of the hallway not knowing what was waiting for them on the other side.
Jimmy had the same question on his mind that Cindy had earlier
Is it too late?
