CHAPTER 10
Title: Mom? Grandpa?
"Ok, we're here, sweetie", someone said, parking the car in what seemed to be a cave with two metal double doors.
"Are you sure this is grandpa's home, mom?", some other person said, while stepping out of the car.
"You can bet it is", the first person smiled an evil grin.
"But why is that you had to take me through the window?", the second person asked.
"Cindy, dear child, I wanted this to be a surprise for you", the first person replied.
The first person got closer to the iron doors, its shadow revealing it was none other than Beautiful Gorgeous. Her hair was up in a tail, and her eyes were fake green in contact lens. Her lips were painted and there was non other difference. She looked exactly like Cindy's mom, but her suit was the same as always, black leather. Beautiful walked more closer to the cave, she put her hand on a hand recognition scanner and then she pressed a red button in a control box and the metal doors started to open. When the doors finally opened, she snapped her fingers and a big, muscled and black dressed persontook the role of driving the car.
Cindy stood still, watching as the car drived away and turned left of the mountain to reveal a huge parking lot with a bunch full of old 1955 cars. Beautiful snapped her fingers again to get Cindy out of her trance, and she motioned her to walk in. Cindy, as obedient as she was, followed.
They walked through the hall, all covered with metal, until they reached another two metal double doors. Cindy kept thinking why was it the cause of so many metal doors and how this place reminded her of someone that she couldn't remember at the moment.
Beautiful pressed a button placed on a speakerphone and this one blinked.
"Coming!", someone yelled from the speakerphone.
The two doors opened, revealing an old tiny person, with two big glasses on his eyes, bald head and a moustache. He was wearing a white lab coat and leather black gloves.
"Here is she, father", Beautiful said, as she pointed at Cindy. "Now, could you please stop bothering me? I have a life".
"Stop your nonsense!", he said, moving his hands quickly, apparently trying to hit Beautiful. "I need you to take care of her. Don't you see? She's the key to get Neutron!".
"Excuse me? Who are you?", Cindy asked.
"Oh! ... Sorry, dear. I must have forgotten you were--- errr, uh...", he said.
"Here?", Cindy asked.
"Yes, yes. Thank you. I'm your-- errr... someone help me here... it starts with a 'g'", he grumbled.
"Grandpa?", Cindy asked again.
"That's right, my child", he said, making a scene as he pretended to whip out a tear from his face, "Calamitous, grandpa FinbarrCalamitous".
"You look so... tiny!", Cindy commented.
"Oh, that's what all my psychiatrists said, and many other people", Calamitous said, his face red as a tomato, trying to show embarrasment. "Come, come, give old grandpa a hug!", he said, extending his arms and walking over to Cindy. He fell to the floor.
Cindy laughed.
"Haha! You're funny! Just like Jimmy!", she giggled.
Beautiful Gorgeous rolled her eyes, and made a face of disgust.
"Jimmy? Neutron!", Calamitous yelled. He got up from the floor, and he faced Beautiful. "How many times did I have to tell you not to let her stay close to that Neutron kid?", he yelled.
"I can't help it! She goes to school, with him, with her friends, she goes to the Candy Bar and she met him many times in many places" Beautiful said.
"So, that's it, huh?", Calamitous said, as he turned around and he eyed a glare to Cindy.
"What's wrong?", she asked, a little scared.
"I must tell you the truth, my dear", Calamitous said. "You see, this boy... Jimmy Neutron is--- errr... uhh...".
At the mention of Jimmy, Cindy's eyes showed hearts and she couldn't stop squealing. "He is the most beautiful and cute and caring thing in the hole universe?", she asked, shaking her hands quickly in the air.
Calamitous waited until the response. "Yeah, yeah... that's it...", he nodded. "Errr--- NO!", he realized. "No, he's evil!".
"Evil?", Cindy asked.
"Yes. He's showing his good side now, but, deeply inside... he's bad, very evil and his inventions, are purely and entirely evil too!", Calamitous explained.
"Oh, man! That Goddard!", Beautiful made a hole scene trying to keep terrified.
"Come here, my child, and I'll tell you more about Neutron", Calamitous said, as he motioned Cindy to enter his lab.
Cindy did as she was told, still not believing that story.
Jimmy Neutron? Evil?
