Goddard soon ran out of batteries. But lucky for Jimmy and Cindy, it was in a dark alley downtown. They both collapsed on the ground, exhausted.
"Goddard." Jimmy sighed tearfully as his trustful companion shut down. He felt a hand on his shoulder. Placing his hand on hers, he got up and looked at his surroundings. Behind a trashcan, something moved.
"Jimmy? Cindy?" A raggedy female's voice spoke up. A dirty woman rose and an equally dirty man followed.
"Libby? Sheen?" Cindy asked squinting to see their faces in the dawn. "Oh my God it is you!" And they embraced but not for long.
"BRAIN BLAST!" Jimmy gasped, startling everyone.
"We're near the Laundromat right?" he asked urgently.
"Yeah. But I don't think it's that important that we get clean Jim." Sheen added stupidly.
"No, I mean, this is where I made the Laundrotron when I put the nanochip in my jeans. If I can get a big enough charge, I can disable the earthquake simulator!" He clapped his hands in triumph. "But I'll need lots of them, and we don't have much time so lets go!"
About midday, the blue sky was a sight of the past. Horrible, greenish-gray and brown clouds boiled over in the sky reflecting the fire's orange glow. (Morbid, isn't it?) Also by midday Jimmy had fashioned 4 Laundrotrons. Each person got in theirs and walked down the street. On the way people were sending the genius awful looks of hatred. Though he was the only one who could save them, he was also the one who caused it in the first place (A/N: Though we know that is way wrong.)
It's been a while
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been a while
Since I first saw you
It's been a while
Since I could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been a while
Since I could call you
But everything I can't remember as f up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've stretched myself beyond my means
It's been a while
Since I could say that I wasn't addicted and
It's been a while
Since I could say I love myself as well and
It's been a while
Since I've gone and f things up just like I always do
It's been a while
But all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you
And everything I can't remember as f up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've gone and f things up again
Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day
Its been awhile
Since I could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry
It's been awhile
Since I've seen the way the candles light your face
It's been awhile
But I can still remember just the way you taste
But everything I can't remember as f up as it all may seem
I know it's me I cannot blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me
It's been a while
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been a while since I said I'm sorry.
As Jimmy paraded the streets with his friends in his Laundrotrons, he hung his head in shame. Then he heard a small child's voice amongst the still screaming city.
"Go Jimmy! Go Jimmy!"
The distressed genius looked up hopefully to the boy on the sidewalk with his arms held high. His mother whom had stopped running to pick up her child, joined in. Within a matter of moments, a group had formed of Jimmy Supporters.
"Hey Jim," Sheen asked, still trying to get used to walking the Laundrotron, "where are we going?"
"The park. I'm sure Goobot will be there eventually." Jimmy told him with confidence, tearing his eyes from his fan club.
"Well, that's not a problem Jim. Looks like he's been waiting for you." Sheen concluded.
"Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy. Do you seriously think you're going to defeat me, the great King Goobot, with a cloths dryer?" The Yokian king laughed haughtily.
"How do you figure that you're so great when it took you 10 years to come up with a decent plan?" Jimmy shot back angrily. Goobot's laugh ceased immediately. Behind Jimmy and his "fleet" of driers, erupted his fan club with cheers.
"Try me." (Queue dramatic music! Sorry, can't provide any for you.)
From out of the 4 Laundrotrons, rolled a line of carpeting for each. Then Jimmy, Cindy, Sheen, and Libby fired up the machines creating a large amount of electricity. As the four of them were scuffing and scraping the carpet, Goobot was lifting his earthquake generator for one last stomp for Jimmy Neutron. Just as the looming shadow of one foot was upon them, Jimmy shouted.
"Ready. Set. ZAP!" A blinding white and yellow light engulfed them as four mechanical fingers touched the metallic death machine. More screams were heard from Jimmy's supporters as the earthquake generator that nearly obliterated them all, crashed to the ground.
As the dust cleared, Jimmy, Cindy, Sheen and Libby and a dizzy set of villains stepped out. Retroville's surviving citizens burst into applause. When the four bowed down, the League of Villains was escaping into their ship. Jimmy had been anticipating this and rolled his eyes. Whipping his Shrink ray out of his pocket, he shrunk the ship before they could fly away.
Walking over to the miniature ship, he picked them up between his thumb and pointer finger.
"You haven't seen the last of us Jimmy Neutron!" The League shouted the totally clichéd phrase. Jimmy just smiled and crushed the ship between his fingers.
"Yeah." He said, turning toward the rest of them. "I think we have."
Now just wait a minute. It's not over yet! I have to tie it all up in the next chap! I was thinking about using another song that I'm sure anyone knows. The "Hero" song from Spider Man. But that's clichéd too so I won't. I like that word. Cliché.
