Professor Calamitous walked into his hideout and shook his head. Man, time travel really takes a lot out of you. The consequences of the changes he had made in the past would show themselves in a matter of minutes. He walked over to the bar and poured himself a nice glass of scotch. He strolled over to his leather chair and took a seat.Ah, this is the life. I can't believe I didn't think of this plan sooner. Time travel is great! He took a sip of his drink and flipped on a few monitors attached into his wall. He smiled as he saw he world slowly change, as well as his hideout. It appeared that he now ruled the world. He looked at the map that represented Retroville. He grinned even wider when he saw no sign of Jimmy Neutron. He stood up and walked towards the bathroom. As he walked away, he failed to notice a dot that represented Jimmy Neutron appear somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean.
Back on the hover car, Jimmy, Cindy, Sheen, Carl, and Libby were staring in awe as the world around them started changing again. The sky turned dark and started raining. They could see missiles being fired in the distance. Even the beautiful Bahamas in front of them turned into a fiery mass of destruction. Within ten minutes the changes stopped.
"Amazing. Now that the changes have stopped, I think I can turn off this force field," Jimmy said as he pushed the button.
"Jimmy, maybe we should dock at that island and figure this out," Cindy suggested.
"Good idea," Jimmy said as he flew over and landed. Everyone got out of the car and looked around. Jimmy looked at Goddard's screen, which was still focused on Retroville. All that was left was a pile of rubble. "It seems that since none of us were born, nobody was able to stop Professor Calamitous from ruling the world. Now we're stuck in a post-apocalyptic nightmare," Jimmy said as he looked at a flaming palm tree.
"What do should we do Neutron?" Cindy asked.
"Well, it looks like my lab is destroyed," Jimmy replied as he stared at Goddard's monitor. "I might be able to construct a primitive time remote from the raw material of the hover car, but it will take some time."
"How long?" Cindy questioned.
"Two days, three tops. Then we can go back in time and stop Calamitous from killing our parents.
"Alright guys, listen up! We're going to be here a little while. Sheen and Libby, go look for some water. Carl, try finding some food. I'll get to work on a shelter for us. And Jimmy, get to work on that time machine. The world's counting on us, guys!" Cindy shouted.
Jimmy stared at her, his eyes glazed over and his jaw drooping a little. Cindy turned around. "What is it, Neutron?" She started shaking her head and rubbing her temple.
"Well, that was kind of hot," he said, smiling a sheepish grin.
Cindy walked over to him and was about to chew him out, but smiled. "Ok, this is not the time! We'll talk about this later. Just get to work!" Jimmy still stared at her. "Now!"
"Uh, yes ma'am!" he said as he got to work. Cindy smiled, and then went off to gather some sticks to build a shelter.
Two days later Calamitous was prancing around, still excited about ruling the world. He grabbed a cigar and jumped into his chair. He turned on the monitors and laughed as he saw the destruction that he had caused. It's like Christmas! He was about to go out for a swim when something on one of the screens caught his eyes. He dropped the cigar from his mouth and gasped. "What the hell! Neutron!" He grabbed a microphone and his voice came over the intercom. "Guards 1-20, report to main floor, room A immediately!" he shouted. Within moments twenty guards were assembled in front of him. "Gather your weapons and head to the rocket immediately! Neutron is alive!"
Meanwhile, Jimmy was still working on his time remote when Cindy walked over. "How's it coming?" she asked.
"Pretty good. It's very primitive, but I did the best I could without my lab," Jimmy replied as she sat down next to him.
"A time machine can be primitive?" Cindy joked.
"Well, it doesn't have as many functions. I put in a pause button incase we have trouble fighting Professor Calamitous. Unfortunately, it will only last a few seconds. We should be able to leave in a few minutes."
Cindy stared at the sky as Jimmy worked. "Remember the last time we were stuck on an island?" she asked in a flirtatious tone.
"Yeah, we were so young then," Jimmy stated while staring off into space.
"You know it was last year, right?" Cindy asked, a little scared.
"I know, but we've grown a lot since then. Some better than others," Jimmy said while eyeing her.
"Just finish the time machine," she said, giggling a little. "Hey, look at that!" she shouted.
Jimmy looked up from the remote and saw something flying right towards their island. "Go bring the others back here. Hurry!" he yelled while frantically turning his wrench and pressing buttons on the time remote. "Move!" he yelled when Cindy just stood there.
"Open fire!" Calamitous yelled from his chair. The rocket let loose a barrage of bullets just as Cindy, Libby, Carl, and Sheen ran up to Jimmy.
"Hurry Jimmy!" Cindy screamed as bullets flew past her. She and the others fell down and covered their head with their hands.
"One sec!" Jimmy shouted as he input the proper date. "Owww!" Jimmy exclaimed as a bullet grazed his arm. He dropped the time remote as he clutched his wounded limb.
"Idiot!" Cindy yelled as she dove for the remote and pressed the ACTIVATE button.
