A commercial was then shown which was in a movie theater where everyone was enjoying themselves as the screen was getting dark and a man was eating his popcorn until The X's came, sitting right behind him.
"Looks like we made it just in time." Tuesday said.
"And not a minute to spare, and the movie's about to start!" Truman added.
"I guess we'll sit here, in this row," Mr. X told his family. He then sat down, blocking a couple of seats behind them and they got up to move to a different spot. "Wait a minute! Something's missing."
"He's right!" Mrs. X added. "We need popcorn and we need it fast!"
"You wait here in this row while I go to the concession stand and come back with popcorn," Mr. X told his wife. Good thing I've brought a five dollar bill."
"Wait a minute, that five dollar bill isn't going to buy popcorn for each of us!" Mrs. X replied.
"She's right," Mr. X then told his family. "It's gonna take ALL of our five dollar bills, that means popcorn and some change for each of us!"
"That means change for each of our five dollar bills." Tuesday replied.
"And the credits are rolling fast!" Truman cried out.
"This looks like a job for a 20!" Mrs. X proclaimed.
"A 20!" The X's cheered together.
"Wait a minute... What about drinks?" Tuesday then asked.
The family then murmured together in agreement.
"Nickelodeon." An announcer's voice said.
"Can't... Move... Feet stuck to floor!" Mr. X complained.
The man sighed to the spy family.
"We're not cartoons, we're Nicktoons." The announcer continued.
The commercial then ended.
Ben was soon on the phone with someone, sipping some coffee, not aware that the show was back. "Listen, Hazel, I understand you're busy with Snooper and Blabber, but surely we can work something out," he said, asking someone out on a date. "How's next Saturday night?"
"Uh, Ben? We're back on." The cameraman called to the narrator.
"Can't you see I'm busy right now?" Ben replied.
"You know you can be replaced." The cameraman reminded him.
"Oh! Uh, I'll call you back," Ben said before hanging up and standing up with his papers. "Erm... Previously, we see the amusement park Ed Land, World, Universe, whatever it was called, and it turned out to be a success, while General Specific was at home watching the beloved reality show classic: America's Got Talent, and saw famed Japanese pop band: Shoyu Weenie! And that's when he formed a plan, using the Mad Scientist's teleporation ray-"
"Angry!" The Angry Scientist corrected off-screen.
"Yeah... And then brought out the star of the band, Jidou Jinnouchi, to scout out and trick Alexandra into thinking he's her beloved soulmate: Henry Chan!" Ben continued. "Then he's gonna trick their friends into thinking that he is Henry so they don't interfere with General Specific's plan..."
"All right, do you even HAVE a purpose?" General Specific complained to him. "They can just read the other parts of the story, you know, it's not like this is an actual TV show or anything."
"So?! This is my job!" Ben replied. "And it builds character! I don't tell YOU how to run YOUR job, do I?"
"No..." General Specific grumbled.
"Why is everybody ganging up on me in this story?!" Ben asked.
"Calm down..." Private Public told him.
Ben took a couple of deep breaths and drank his coffee to calm him down. "Okay, okay, I'm calm... Now, back to the story..." he then said.
The others looked to him and the story soon went back on track for the next chapter.
Chapter 3: Caught and Capture
Jidou was in the city, looking for Henry and Alexandra; it was good thing that General Specific gave him pictures of them so he will know what they look like. So far, he didn't have much luck, but he tried to sneak around like a stealthy ninja while he went to work. Renee looked over from the alley before shrugging and going back to sleep with Top Cat and the gang.
Jidou looked over and eventually, he found Henry and Alexandra as they went into the house together. "Gotcha." he then said once he spotted his target. He was then thinking about how to capture them.
"I think I'm gonna take a shower and go to bed, I feel wore out." Alexandra said.
"I wouldn't blame you, we all had a big day today." Henry said to her.
"It sure was," Alexandra replied. "I can't believe that Eddy's scam was a success."
Henry soon unlocked the door, yawning and coming inside the house with Alexandra.
"So, there they are... Now, I just gotta think... How to do it?" Jidou muttered to himself.
Alexandra went straight to the bathroom while Henry went to go to his room, feeling exhausted since he had to help the Eds get the amusement park together.
"Hmm... Wait a minute... I got it!" Jidou said to himself once he came up with a plan.
Henry went straight to his room to get some sleep and his brothers and sisters were all already asleep while Alexandra would be showering.
"This is my chance." Jidou said to himself. He soon went to do his plan now that it was a good time for it.
Alexandra finished her shower and put on her PJs. "Ah, that's much better."
Jidou soon stalked over to the Chan household as Alexandra was on her way to bed. He then quietly opened the window and sneakily went inside. Alexandra brushed her hair down and soon went to get into her bed since she lived with the Chan family now after meeting Mystery Inc and moving into Cartoon Network City. Jidou took a deep breath and knocked Alexandra's bedroom door.
"What do you want, Stanley?" Alexandra rolled her eyes. "I'm too tired to hear any jokes right now."
"It's me, Henry." Jidou replied.
"Henry? I thought you were going to sleep?" Alexandra said. "Also, your voice sounds different."
"Uh... I just couldn't stay away from you..." Jidou said innocently. "Could I come in?"
"Well... I guess so..." Alexandra shrugged but soon yawned. "Mm... I'm a little beat though."
"Erm... Yeah, it was a big day for all of us." Jidou replied.
"Tell me about it... What did you want?" Alexandra asked. "Can't it wait until morning?"
"I just want to talk to you for a second." Jidou replied.
"All right, what is it?" Alexandra asked.
"It's very important..." Jidou said. "I want you to meet me in the park alone tomorrow at 12:00."
"Seriously, Henry, this couldn't have waited until tomorrow?" Alexandra asked.
"I have a surprise for you." Jidou said to her with a wink.
"Well, all right," Alexandra smirked to that. "I'll see you tomorrow at 12:00."
"It's a date." Jidou smirked back.
"Well, I'm going to bed," Alexandra then said. "See you in the morning."
"See you..." Jidou said a bit mysteriously. "Trust me... It'll be worth the wait."
Jidou then walked away. One down, one more to go. Henry was fast asleep.
"Hmm... I'll probably have to get back to him later..." Jidou said. He then went to get out of the Chan household as quietly as he could.
Luckily, no one seemed to notice him.
General Specific and Private Public then waited back at the government base.
"Shouldn't you be getting home to Trixie, sir?" Private Public asked. "You know how she gets when you're late."
"She'll be fine," General Specific replied. "I told her that I had an important meeting with the other Generals."
"I just hope for your sake, she believes you, unlike your anniversary last year and you forgot with that same excuse." Private Public said.
"Why don't you get a girlfriend already, Private?" General Specific rolled his eyes.
"Well, um, actually, I like this one woman." Private Public said sheepishly.
"Who is it?" General Specific asked. "Please tell me it's not some Mary Sue girl."
"Oh, no, sir, it's... Um... Please don't scream." Private Public replied.
"Out with it, Private!" General Specific demanded.
"It's Femme Fatale." Private Public revealed.
"...Her?!" General Specific asked. "But how-"
Jidou soon came back.
"Ah, you're back," Private Public said. "Did it go okay?"
"I'LL ask the questions here, I'm the General!" General Specific glared before looking to the Japanese boy. "So, did it go okay?"
"I have plans for the girl, but I don't know what to do with the boy yet." Jidou explained.
"Hmm..." General Specific glanced at him.
"Sorry, sir; I'll think of something." Jidou promised.
"You had better soon, but nice work with the boy," General Specific grinned. "Maybe you could join our organization."
"I don't know; I'll think about it." Jidou shrugged.
"Well, you better think of something soon, who knows how much time we have to make my brother jealous?!" General Specific replied.
"I will get to it in the morning." Jidou promised.
"You better," General Specific said. "Now you're dismissed."
"Uh... Where do I go though?" Jidou asked.
"Oh, right," General Specific replied. "Private?"
"Erm... I made a little room for you here with a bed and your own bathroom... General Specific told me to." Private Public said.
"Hmm... I guess that'll be fine... I guess it's better than sharing a room with all my brothers and sisters..." Jidou sighed to himself. "If only Sakae could see me now."
"Go." General Specific told him.
Jidou bowed to the two men and soon went to his new room away from home.
"Think this will work, sir?" Private Public asked his boss.
"It has to, Private." General Specific replied.
Private Public looked unsure, but the two men soon turned in for the night as it was quite late.
Evan fell fast asleep, though he found himself thinking about Onyx until the next morning as he seemed to had fallen in love at first sight from the girl he just met at the amusement park. Trixie was then cooking up breakfast for her family. General Specific was still asleep and Evan soon came in, saluting his mother.
"I'm ready for breakfast, Mom, sir!" Evan saluted. "Also, I couldn't wake up Dad... I guess he had a long night."
"I guess that meeting with the other Generals took a long time." Trixie replied.
"Probably," Evan shrugged. "Uh, can I sit down now?"
"At ease." Trixie told him.
"Okay, good!" Evan sighed, putting his arm down and soon sat down at the table once he was allowed to.
"You must've had a lot of fun last night, huh?" Trixie asked.
"It was the best time ever." Evan blushed.
Trixie soon scooped him up a bowl of oatmeal.
"Thanks, Mom..." Evan said, about to eat it until the berries in his oatmeal seemed to make a heart shape and he saw Onyx's face in the center of it. He then rubbed his eyes and saw the berries back to normal before he soon went to eat his breakfast.
"That reminds me though, I'm thinking of going back over to George Washington Military Academy for a while, you remember that place, right?" Trixie asked. "Jennifer Stone was the Cadet Captain."
"Huh? Oh, uh, yeah, I remember her, Mom." Evan replied.
"I think I should go back sometime, it's been a while..." Trixie said. "I was there a while. You were very young at the time, and Jennifer looked up to me. She's a Cadet Captain now."
"Must be impressive." Evan said.
"I believe so, yes," Trixie nodded as she sat down, getting herself a bowl of oatmeal and sat with her son. Ah, military school. Brings back memories for me when I became a student there."
"I can't wait to go to military school." Evan said.
"It's tough, but I know you can handle it." Trixie chuckled.
Evan continued to eat his breakfast.
"So, did anything interesting happen at the amusement park yesterday?" Trixie asked him.
"Well, I met this amazing girl at the Tunnel of Love." Evan replied.
"Oh! You met a girl, huh?" Trixie asked.
Evan blushed a bit, but nodded to his mother.
"What's her name?" Trixie asked.
"Calls herself Onyx," Evan said. "Onyx Mitchelson. She's a bit of a bad girl rebel type, but she's actually pretty cool."
"I never thought I'd see the day," Trixie sighed a bit. "My baby boy is becoming a man."
Evan blushed a bit from that.
"Well, I hope I can meet her sometime." Trixie smirked playfully.
"Y-Yeah, sure, Mom." Evan replied.
Soon enough, General Specific woke up and put on his general's uniform, then came down for breakfast.
"Well, look who's awake." Trixie said to her husband.
"I had a long night," General Specific mumbled. "Morning, son."
"Morning, Dad." Evan saluted.
"At ease." General Specific told him.
Evan nodded and soon sat back down once he was allowed to.
"So, I'll be going out for a while today," Trixie told them. "You boys will behave while I'm gone?"
"Yes, ma'am." General Specific and Evan replied.
"Spa Day?" Evan asked his mother.
"Oh, you know it, son," Trixie smirked. "I'm going to be going out with my best friend, Kari MacArthur."
"Aunt Kari?" Evan asked. "I haven't seen her in so long."
"Well, she lives in the city with her son," Trixie said. "You two were the best of friends, almost like brothers."
"Oh, yeah," Evan smiled in memory. "We used to play a lot when we were kids."
"You sure did," Trixie said. "I'll say hi for you. I'm sure you can find Brick around the city though, but it's a big city."
"Yeah, there's so many people here, it's crazy." Evan nodded to his mother.
"You boys better behave, I'll see you later." Trixie told them as she left the house to go to the spa.
"Son, I can't wait for you to see how brilliant your old man is once those Hulk Teens are captured." General Specific grinned to his son.
"You're trying that again?" Evan asked. "Are you sure that it will work?"
"The plan I have won't fail." General Specific replied.
"Where have I heard that before?" Evan smirked to himself.
General Specific just glared at his son who shrugged. The two soon went to keep eating their breakfast while Evan thought about Onyx.
"Dad, how did you know that Mom was the one?" Evan asked as he sighed a bit.
"Well, son, I always loved a woman who was rough and tough and doesn't take crap from anyone," General Specific replied. "That's when I first met your mom."
"That's when you fell in love?" Evan guessed.
"More or less..." General Specific said. "Military School can change a person sometimes."
"I'll bet." Evan replied.
Back at the military base, Private Public was checking up on Jidou, making sure that he was all right. Jidou wasn't in bed, but instead, he was awake, and was cleaning up a bit.
"Uh, you all right, son?" Private Public asked.
"I usually have to clean up around my space whenever I wake up early." Jidou told him.
"Oh, that's fine," Private Public told him. "I could've had one of the other men clean it up for you since you are the guest."
"Um... Okay..." Jidou said to him as he stopped what he was doing.
Private Public then had one of the men clean up the room for Jidou. Jidou looked around as he came inside.
"So, your father and siblings..." Private Public said. "You have any other family?"
"Well, I guess there's my cousin, Natsuki Shinohara," Jidou said. "She's 18 and has a very close friend named Kenji Koiso. There's also my great-grandmother who I was very close with, Sakae. She'll be turning 90 very soon. Out of everyone in my family, I probably like Natsuki and Sakae a lot better than my father."
"Well, what about your mother?" Private Public asked.
"She died a long time ago..." Jidou said.
"Oh... I'm so sorry..." Private Public said to him.
"It's okay... Father says she committed suicide... But I think he beat her to death." Jidou said softly.
Private Public winced at that. Sure, his father General Public was tough on him, but he would never beat his son nor his wife, Major Public.
Jidou held his stomach. "You have any rice?" he then asked. "I'm very hungry."
"One of the Majors is a chef, so he should be here soon." Private Public told the boy.
"Thank you." Jidou replied.
"So, how many brothers and sisters do you have?" Private Public asked.
"Together, there is ten of us," Jidou said. "Like that Chan Clan from China. There's me, then Jikiru, Juki, Jiruchi, Juka, Jurietta, Joichi, Jitan, Juwa, Junri, and Jouto."
"Oh, wow. That's a lot." Private Public replied.
"Yes, I know." Jidou said. He then looked at the time and went to get ready to meet up with Alexandra.
"So, do you have a plan for the Chan boy?" Private Public asked Jidou.
"Yes, I do." Jidou replied.
"Just be careful around him." Private Public warned.
Jidou soon walked off.
"Oh, that poor boy... I wish there was something I could do for him..." Private Public said to himself.
Meanwhile, Alexandra was at the park, waiting for "Henry".
"Where is he?" Alexandra sighed. "He said to meet him here at noon."
Jidou poked his head out from behind as he was sneaking around. Alexandra sat down on a bench, crossing her legs and arms, a bit impatiently.
Jidou soon crept up right behind Alexandra, grabbing her into a hold and soon gave her a nerve pinch which made the former mean girl pass out. "One down and one more to go."
Alexandra was soon brought back to the military base, still knocked out, and was soon in a cage. Private Public looked a little guilty for this happening, but he didn't say or do anything as Jidou carried out his assignment.
Henry was now in the city, looking around for Alexandra. "Alex, where'd you go?" Henry asked himself, looking into the beauty salon.
Ms. Bellum was shown to be there, getting her hair done by HIM of all people.
"Not there either," Henry frowned. He then asked everyone if they had seen Alexandra, but so far, it seemed like no one had seen or heard from her today. "Where is she?" he then sighed before stopping for a minute and looked around as if he felt that someone was following him.
No one was there. Henry glared as he had a feeling he was being followed, but kept on going until he sat on the bench to wait for the bus. Jidou soon came to sneak up behind Henry to knock him out like he had done with Alexandra earlier.
Henry then jumped out of the bench and looked at him, asking, "Who are you?"
"Never mind that right now... I'm going to help you." Jidou said, reaching out for the boy.
"Help me with what?!" Henry glared.
"You'll see soon enough." Jidou told him.
"I don't think so," Henry glared, grabbing his arm. "What are you up to? And I want the truth!"
"I'm sorry, I can't tell you that." Jidou replied.
"Well, too bad because I'm not going anywhere with you, and you can't make me," Henry glared at Jidou. "I bet you took Alexandra from me."
Jidou blinked at him, unfazed. "Yes, I did."
"I should've known..." Henry glared as his eyes flashed green. "Why did you do it?"
"Because I was asked to, and I need help for me and my family." Jidou told him.
"Likely story!" Henry glared. "Tell me where she is and maybe I won't beat you to a pulp right now!"
"My boss was right," Jidou whispered to himself. "He IS a tough one to get."
"I SAID ANSWER ME!" Henry glared. "YOU WANNA DO THIS THE HARD WAY?!"
"You won't like it." Jidou said.
"Well, yeah, you took the only girl I've ever loved away from me!" Henry glared. "So you better spill or else, and I REALLY don't like solving problems with my muscle all the time despite what you were probably told about me!"
Jidou sighed as he rolled up his sleeves to reveal bandges. "I really hate to do this, but you've left me no choice since you won't come peacefully."
Henry just glared at him.
"What now?" Henry glared at Jidou. "You're gonna make me feel sorry for you now after what YOU did? Sorry, I don't play that."
Jidou ignored him and unwrapped the bandages to reveal markings on his arms.
"You're just showing me your tattoos." Henry huffed.
"No, they are not," Jidou told him. "They are scars from my father's physical abuse."
"What?" Henry asked.
"He doesn't care about us," Jidou said. "He even beat my mother before she committed suicide."
"What does that have to do with my girlfriend?" Henry asked.
"Because I want to make my boss happy," Jidou said. "And if you're not going to come peacefully, then I have no choice."
Much to Henry's shock, he saw the teen make hand signs and his hands glowed blue.
"What are you...?" Henry asked.
Jidou appeared right in front of him and attacked him with one hit and made him fall on the ground.
"I'm sorry... But you've forced me to do this..." Jidou said as he soon grabbed a hold of Henry to take him to the military base where General Specific and Private Public worked in.
General Specific was dancing for joy as he got one of the Hulk Teens. Private Public danced with him, but a bit awkwardly.
"I'm back." Jidou glared as he soon came back with Henry, handcuffed.
"Now I've got both of them!" General Specific cheered. "Kid, you're amazing!"
"Um... Thank you... I think." Jidou replied.
"Put him in the cage with the other one." General Specific demanded.
"So, it was you all this time!" Henry glared and soon saw Evan. "And who are you?!"
"Evan Specific," Evan replied. "I'm his son."
"Evan... I saw you at the amusement park!" Henry glared.
"I didn't want to come here actually..." Evan said out of guilt. "Dad, don't you think this has gone too far?"
"Who cares? Finally, I'll be better than Tolack!" General Specific grinned. "It's all I've ever wanted!"
"What now, sir?" Private Public asked.
"We throw a party now, that's what!" General Specific told him.
"You mean you aren't already?" Evan rolled his eyes slightly.
"You won't get away with this!" Henry glared at General Specific.
"I already have, and you won't be there to stop me!" General Specific laughed.
Evan looked at Henry in guilt while General Specific celebrated his victory. Henry soon saw Alexandra and hugged her, glad that she wasn't horribly hurt.
"We got to get out of here," Henry told Alexandra. "Alex, you think you can grab my phone?"
"I can try." Alexandra replied.
"Trying is better than not at all," Henry said. "My mother always said that."
Alexandra soon tried to reach for Henry's phone. "Uh... I think I have it... I can't grab it though..."
"That's not my phone." Henry blushed bashfully.
"Huh? OH!" Alexandra said, moving her hand, blushing herself as she kept trying. "Okay, that's definitely it," she then got the phone out of his pocket. "Okay, now what?"
"Okay, text one of our friends." Henry replied.
"Which one?" Alexandra asked.
"Um... Double D!" Henry suggested.
Alexandra soon quickly texted Double D as fast as she could, looking nervous with Henry. She then sent the message, hoping he would receive it and maybe text back. The phone accidentally slipped out of her hands, landing on the floor.
"Oh! Sorry, Henry." Alexandra frowned.
"It's okay, at least you got the message through." Henry coaxed.
"I just hope that they get it." Alexandra replied.
"Me too, Alex." Henry replied.
