A/N: here's chapter 3.

            "Goddard, will you please be quiet?  It isn't even thr--" Jimmy's sentence had been cut off by a sense of dread.  Something was wrong.  He knew it.

            He quickly changed into a sweater and some long jeans, and then hurried down the stairs and out the door.  Something was driving him towards the park, like he just had to go there.  He ran down the cold, empty streets until he was panting at out of breath.  At two-thirty in the morning, the town of Retroville seemed lonely.

            When he finally made it to the park, Cindy was already sitting on a bench, waiting for him.  He ran up to her to initiate conversation, but she beet him to the punch.

            "Neutron, when you got up this morning, did you feel like, like something was…"

            "Amiss?" he suggested.  "Yeah.  Do you think somethi--"

            Jimmy was cut off by a low rumbling sound.  He and Cindy both looked up to see something in the sky.  It seemed to have a green-glowing haze around it.  It had wings, jets, and a large fuselage, so it was obviously some kind of flying vessel.  But that wasn't frightened Jimmy.  Rather, it was the fact that the whole ship was shaped like a giant chicken.

            Jimmy started to back up, but didn't take his eyes from the sky.  "No, no.  It can't be…" he muttered under his breath.

            After the ship had passed, Cindy looked behind her to see Jimmy and Goddard running in the opposite directions.  She sprinted to catch up, and as she was faster, achieved the objective easily.

            "Jimmy?  What was that thing?"

            Jimmy shook his head.  "I don't know for sure, but remember last year when we fought the aliens?"  he and Cindy slowed down and eventually stopped.

            "Yeah, what about them?" she asked.  But she knew what the boy genius was getting at.

            "I think the Yolkians are back." Jimmy whispered.

            Cindy shook her head.  "That's crazy.  I thought we taught them a lesson," Cindy reasoned.

            "Me too." Jimmy really didn't want to talk about the possibility.  "So, Cindy?  Let me see that ticket."

            Cindy quietly laughed under her breath.  "Here's the ticket, but that's not what I wanted you to come here for."

            Jimmy looked on, confused.  "Well, then what is it?" he glanced at the ticket and saw that Cindy had indeed gone to Retroland the day before.

            "Um, w- well Neut- tron," she studdered, "I really wanted to- to tell you that- that um, well, the thing is, I- I don't know how to explain this, but, I- I sorta, you know, kinda li--" she was cut off by the sound of footsteps on the concrete pathways.  The two turned to see…

            "Sheen?"

            "Libby?  What are you two doing here?"

            They didn't respond, rather, Sheen pointed a menacing finger at Jimmy.  "There is Neutron.  Capture Neutron."

            Cindy leaned toward Jimmy.  "Uh, what's he saying?  And what are those weird helmets their wearing?"

            Jimmy shrugged.  "I don't know.  But those helmets seem to resemble the ones that our parents were wearing before they were almost sacrificed to the giant chicken."

            "So what do you suggest we do?"  Sheen and Libby were beginning to advance on them, arms outstretched as if ready to hug.

            "Run for it," Jimmy replied before he turned and sprinted down the street.
