A Plan
Thanks for reviewing again. It's nice to know some people aren't bored with this horrible fic.Since I won't get anymore reviews here it goes!All my love,–Katie–
No own Jim.
The sunlight warmly danced on his shoulders and dried the last remaining drops of water. He breathed in the air around him, it seemed to have a refreshing taste to his pruned skin. He had finally gotten his turn at a shower. He dried himself off and got dressed. He found everyone talking when he got back. He shook the last remaining wetness from his hair as he smiled at the army in front of him.
" Everyone ready?"
They shook there heads yes, and just about he was ready to dial April, her face appeared on his watch.
" Jimmy. Are you ready?" he nodded his head yes as he ran his hand through his hair.
" I'll be there in a moment.." she said smiling widely. The connection was cut off a second later. Just then in the distance he heard a loud ROAR! And a vehicle that looked like a limo without wheels pulled up in front of them. Judging by that both of the Gorlock vehicles he had seen that day had no wheels he figured Gorlocks traveled mainly by air. The door to the green limo opened, April appeared. Her fangs were shiny, and Jimmy noted that she wasn't wearing her Gorlock uniform. Her helmet with the horns had been removed and her green hair was spiked a little bit, she wasn't wearing the 'army' look. Jimmy wasn't actually sure what it was, but kinda looked like a green dress. So that's what he would call it. He had never seen April like this, and he had to admit, it was defiantly a surprise. She smiled at him warmly.
" Come on Jimmy, if we don't hurry father will be very upset.." she said as she motioned for them to join her in the large limo. Just as he was about to protest it grew! So big that it would defiantly fit every single last person, and maybe a few more. He stared wide eyed. She smiled again. He shrugged and climbed into the vehicle and everyone else followed. April nodded that he should sit in the front seat next to her so he did so. The interior was decorated in a very dark green and was very spacious and inviting. Betty walked was the last to board just before April. She gave Jimmy a very funny look and sat in the back somewhere. April finally climbed in and sat down next to him. Just then she closed the door and signaled the driver. With a roar they left the ground. Jimmy looked out the window.. A very desolate planet indeed. From up here it certainly seemed there was nothing there but the city. He studied the approaching lights but his eyes did not stop there. They kept going off into space.
" Your worried about her aren't you?" April asked.
" Who? Cindy? Well yea. They did kinda threaten her life.." he replied quietly. " Which one is the planet you saw.. Her.."
" The white one.." she said as she pointed at the farthest planet.. The planet that he had thought he had seen Cindys' image painted on. He tore his eyes away from the white planet in the distance and studied the city that had appeared beneath them. Green lights decorated the buildings and sure enough everyone was riding on those flying motorcycles. She smiled at him.
" What do you think?" He just nodded in approval. They soon arrived at a palace that towered over them. The King's residential palace was in front of them. He looked at April.
" I have convinced the King to give us an audience.." she said. The limo came to a complete stop.
" Right.." he said. The door popped open. Warm scents of tantalizing food filled the air.
" Alright. Everyone out!" she smiled. " Jimmy you can wait with me.. Besides my father will be wanting to meet you..."
" He has met me.."
" No I mean.. Meet you now, not as a 10 year old boy.." she said smiling. He just shrugged.
" Okay, whatever.." Soon it was just them.
" Here we go.." she grabbed Jimmy's hand.
" Here we go.." he replied as he nodded. Together they exited the limo and then she signaled the driver and it dissapeared into the distance. She lead him into the towering palace in front of them. The interior had grey marble decorating almost every inch, and several green chandeliers hung from the ceiling. She led them through the lavishly decorated hallways with ease..
" For a girl whose never been here before you sure know your way around.."
" Who said I've never been here before?" she asked as continued to lead him around by his arm.
" Okay, that was a little weird.." he raised an eyebrow. She just rolled her eyes and lead him down another hallway. This had pictures of famous Gorlock warriors covering every inch of the walls. It was like the eyes watched them. It was starting to creep him out a little bit.
" Are we almost there?"
" Yes. We are here.." they stood outside a large door with an image engraved into the center. It was a Gorlockan helmet. She knocked on one of the knockers.
" Come in!" a voice bellowed. She looked at Jimmy and messed with his white shirt and strained it out a bit and messed his hair up a bit.
" Perfect." She smiled and kissed his cheek and then opened the door. His heart was beating ten million miles an hour.
Aprils' father sat in a rather large chair at the end of the room. He was wearing a crown. All of a sudden everything made sense. Aprils' father was the King.. Which meant April was the princess! No wonder she had so much influence over the armies of Gorlock. She went over to his side and donned her own crown and kissed her father on the forehead.
" Father this is Jimmy Neutron.." she motioned towards him. He kneeled down on one knee.
" Your majesty.." The King signaled for him to rise and come towards him.
" Ah yes. I remember you! You are the earth boy that helped us destroy Meldar are you not?" Jimmy nodded. " Yes. Earth scum. I remember you quite well. You have grown my boy. Perhaps you are not as much as a weakling as I first thought.."
" Thank you Sir.. But as much as I would like to discuss this your daughter says you know how to help me.."
" You will address my daughter as Princess CHYYAAA!" She winced at the last part and glared at her father a tish.
" Princess CHYYAAA has said you may know how to help me get a friend of mine back.."
" Yes my boy, indeed I do have a plan. My daughter here has made it quite clear how much she wishes to assist you in rescuing your friend, and of course I can not let her go alone, that would be far to dangerous. But before I tell you the plan, you should have knowledge of what has occurred over the past few days so have a seat earth boy..." Jimmy did as he was told. A large screen dropped from the ceiling and a picture of Gorlock appeared on the screen. There were two planets to the side of it, and there was no white planet.
" As you know there is a planet just two down from ours that is pure white.. It appeared there about a week ago in Gorlock time which is about the same as earth time.. So probably about a week or more in earth time.." he said as he gestured to the empty space that soon was filled by the appearance of the white planet. " As you can see, it just formed itself. Now, I have my doubts, but I seriously think that it was under the influence of something called A white crystal.." Jimmy cocked his head to the side. He had heard of blue crystals.. And crystals.. But white crystals?
" What is a white crystal you may ask?" Jimmy nodded. A picture of a white element appeared on the screen. A white crystal.
" A white crystal is a special crystal formed by the joining of two powers.."
" So if two people join power.. This forms?"
" Correct.. And also it is one of the deadliest weapons in the history of weapons.. And it's value is priceless.. It is practically indestructible.. Not even an 'atomic bomb' could destroy it. But I am afraid that is what is holding your dear earth friend captive. Two people with numerous power have formed this white crystal, and made this new white planet with it's power, and they have decided to take your little friend.. And the only way to help her, would be to release her, and the only way you could really save her and yourself would be to destroy it.." he said numbly.
" How am I supposed to do that?"
" The only thing that could destroy the white crystal is if you don't want to use it.."
Jimmy cocked his head to the side.
" What do you mean?"
" For instance, if I held such power in my hands the crystal would sense that I enjoyed the power and would get more powerful but you.. If you hold it, it will become weak if your mind doesn't send the message that you enjoy it's power, then and only then will the hard coating start to melt and you can toss it on the ground and it will explode into a million pieces.." he paused. " The explosion is a very powerful thing.. I suggest that when you decide to destroy it, if you destroy it then you should be as far away from the actual explosion itself.. Because the implosion of a white crystal would have enough force to kill an earthling like yourself.." Jimmy stared wide eyed.
" Alright. Now whats your plan?" he asked as he leaned forwards.
" I sent April to that planet yesterday and she learned from a mysterious voice that the white crystal was being held in a large show room in the west wing of the main palace..."
" A mysterious voice?"
" A voice that spoke, but never showed who owned it.." she said looking at him.
" Anyway as she was wandering the halls she found a jail cell with your earth friend in it.."
" YOU DID! YOU MEAN.. SHE'S ALIVE!" he cried joyfully. The King raised his hand.
" Yes. She was fine I believe.. And so April will bring a few of our best warriors and you can save your earth friend as she distracts the guards that are stationed all over the planet, and you will break into the room where the white crystal is held, and you will break the case, and you will destroy it..
" That's easy enough... but April..if it's so heavily guarded, how did you get out safely?" Jimmy asked.
" Simple Gorlock theory Neutron... After all I am a princess I know many old Gorlock warrior tactics.." she said as she smiled at him.
" Your friends will also help you fight the guards, after all you and April and a few of my loyal servants will not destroy the numerous amount of them there.." Jimmy nodded.
" Sounds perfectly reasonable!" he smiled as he stood up.
" It's a deal your majesty.." he stuck his hand out and shook the King's hand.
" Well I'm hungry! Let's go eat with everyone else!" April smiled and walked over to Jimmy and grabbed his hand. The King nodded in approval and she lead Jimmy out of the room. She closed the doors behind them.. Then,
" JIMMY YOU DID IT!" she squealed and hugged him tightly. " I knew you could! I knew you would! Oh Jimmy he likes you! I know he does!" she kissed his cheek and then blushed and he did to.
" Er.. It wasn't that hard.." she just smiled.
" You know your smooth.." and she laughed again. When did April become so confident of her English? How did she know these 'hip' phrases? As much as he was thankful for April.. Something really smelt fishy. Literally! The halls smelt like fish. Maybe Gorlock wasn't that different from earth after all.. They walked into a huge ballroom with tables at the far end. There was enough room in there for six armies.. She motioned over to a banquet table and he could see Libby and them sitting in the center of the room. He walked over to it.
" What is this stuff?" he pointed at a green jell in front of him.
" You know. You probably don't want to know. But you need to eat. Your starving. I can see it in your eyes.." she dished a spoonful of the green goo on his plate. He winced as he grabbed a fork and a cup. He looked into the pitcher of liquid. Water. Thank heavens.
" April? Are you sure none of this stuff will poison us?" he asked as he poured some into his cup.
" I've done some studying. I'm positive.. Your friends are over here.." she pointed to a table in the distance. She lead him to his friends. They sat down. Everyone was staring at the crown perched on top of Aprils' head.
" Everyone. This is Princess CHYYAAA!" he stated simply. Everyone stared at her.
" Hello." They responded.
" But you guys can call me April.. I prefer it much more.." she said as she smiled.
" Hello April.." They responded again. She smiled as she cut into her food. Jimmy just looked at her. April had failed to mention she was a princess...
He cut into his own food and grimaced as the gooey green gloop slid down his throat. It actually didn't taste to bad he thought as he put another spoonful in his mouth. Everyone was content eating there food and soon everyone was full. It was now time for her to fill everyone in on the plan. She had done this, and a few people protested, but she reassured them how the plan would work. Filling them in on every single detail. Finally everyone was content with the plan. Just then some eerie music filled the room. She smiled.
" It appears the Gorlock Band has decided to entertain us.. "she nodded towards them. It sounded like a weird collision of Rock, Polka, and Yodeling. An eerie cry from a trumpet like instrument filled the room, but instead of a high pitched sound it boomed shaking the walls.
" I love this song!" she cheered them on. They played louder and faster.
" Care to dance?" she yelled over the increasing music.
" SURE!" he yelled back as he took her hand and they waltzed about the room. So far Gorlock certainly didn't seem so bad.. Maybe her people really weren't as dangerous as he once thought.
