You were expecting an update on my recent stories I was writing? TOO BAD; FRY x AMY TIME! In all seriousness, though, it HAS been a little while since I've gotten back into the swing of writing this story. I don't know WHY I took so long in getting to it, but I apologize! Anyway, the story has now been updated for your reading pleasure! Enjoy.
"It's me again, your lovely Nibblonian narrator. As you may recall, our hero Phillip J. Fry had just arrived in the future, but his way of exploring it was different now that he had met a Martian girl known as Amy Wong and a robot named Bender. Okay, so maybe it's not too different, but as you recall, the one known as Turanga Leela had been sent in the wrong direction while Bender takes Fry and Amy into hiding. And where did they go? Why don't we tune in and see?"
"The Head Museum?" Amy said as she, Fry and Bender arrived at a nearby building.
"Well, it's free on Tuesdays, and besides, I told you that's where we're going, didn't I?" Bender said as he lowered one of his eyes.
"Uh, actually, you just whispered random gibberish and then said, 'Come on, let's go', and just took us there. You never actually said where we could hide." Amy said.
"Ah, come on, the museum is free on Tuesdays anyway. And besides, we're running from a Cyclops that wants to get Fry for running away from his destiny, don't we?" Bender crossed his arms.
"What's the Head Museum?" Fry asked, raising an eyebrow.
"What is the Head Museum? What were ya, stuck in the past?" Bender frowned as he laughed, then paused, "Oh I'm sorry, you were stuck in the past..."
"Come on, let's just go in before anybody else sees!" Amy hissed/whispered as she dragged the man and robot in the museum.
As they went inside, Fry looked pretty amazed, yet freaked out as he noticed shelves upon shelves of heads inside.
"Welcome to the Head Museum! I'm Leonard Nimoy!" A head said in the center of the room.
Fry double-taked as he noticed the very head that talked and smiled, upon recognizing it. "Spock? Hey! Hey, do the thing!"
Fry, in his excitement, did the Vulcan salute from Star Trek. Leonard gave a chuckle in amusement as he said, "I don't really do that anymore. No body, as you may see."
"Right... sorry, it's just... I'm a fan of your works." Fry said in surprise as Amy raised an eyebrow.
"You'll have to forgive him, he's a little new to the future." Amy said. "He doesn't know what happened the last thousand years."
"That's all right. It's rare to see someone who remembers the old days." Leonard Nimoy smiled.
"Why wouldn't anyone remember you on Star T-" Fry raised an eyebrow as Leonard Nimoy yelped.
"Don't say those words together in the same sentence!" Leonard panicked.
Fry blinked in confusion. "What words?"
"I can't say them out loud! Believe me, it's best you don't utter them in public." Leonard said.
"Well, how can I not say the words if you can't tell me what they are?" Fry frowned.
Bender paused as he snapped his fingers. "Oh, let me guess! Is it... Kingdom Hearts?"
"No." Leonard frowned.
"Mission Impossible?" Bender asked as Amy sat down and sighed.
"No." Leonard turned his head slightly.
"Havodavocalf?" Bender said.
"That's not even a word!" Leonard raised an eyebrow.
"Onomatopoeia?" Bender said as he pulled a dictionary from his compartment and pointed to the word. "And that IS a word, by the way."
"Who would say a word like that?" Amy asked.
"I don't know, but it sounds fun to say." Bender chuckled.
"On-o-ma-toe-pee-a." Fry said slowly... before chuckling. "Hey, you're right! It does sound fun to say! Onomatopoeia, onomatopoeia, onomt-"
"Star Trek!" Leonard almost screamed out loud, before hastily whispering. "The words are Star Trek!"
Fry shook his head in shock as Bender frowned, crossing his arms. "That was going to be my next guess."
"Wait, why are those words banned? Did they rename the show?" Fry raised an eyebrow.
"No, they didn't rename it. It's not the words that are banned, it's the show altogether!" Leonard explained. "Heck, I'm not even supposed to be alive in this timeline, and yet here's my head explaining all this to you!"
"The show... got banned?" Fry said in horror.
"It's been many years, but a fandom war escalated in the 23rd century and long story short, the world decided that it was better off without the show in their lives. While I do miss the old days, things are just what they are right now." Leonard Nimoy said. "Anyway, most of these celebrities you see should have died in their respective years, but they found a way to resurrect famous celebrities from the dead in the 22nd century! You want to learn how that happened? Well, it's a funny story, let me- hey, excuse me, where are you going?"
Fry was finding himself running off in terror as Amy looked concerned. "Fry? Fry, wait!"
Amy looked concerned as she ran after Fry, but as she headed out the museum, she noticed that he was nowhere to be seen. Amy looked around anxiously as Bender came out after her. "Sheesh, you think he'd want to explore more of the place..."
"It's not that! He's a 20th century boy lost in a almost about to be 31st century world!" Amy frowned. "Who knows what'll happen if that Cyclops catches him!"
"Aw, do I sense a sentimental love for the human?" Bender gave a chuckle as Amy glared.
"Knock it off! We only met for a day! I'm just worried he'll be captured! Come on, we got to find him before that Cyclops does!" Amy said as she started to run off.
"Right behind you, sister!" Bender said as he started to follow behind the pink wearing girl.
"What kind of a world am I in where Star Trek is banned from the world?" Fry said to himself. "Why would the Earth do that? Did they ban other classics too?"
It was then Fry had found himself slowing down a little as he noticed someone nearby. Fry yelped as he noticed Leela was looking around the area. Fry yelped as he lifted up a sewer grate and dived in. Leela blinked as she turned around, but noticed nobody was around. Leela frowned as she started to move on ahead.
Fry sighed in relief as he started to climb down the ladder as he sighed. He quickly stopped as he looked around in shock. For in front of him were buidlings that looked like they were ready to collapse.
"Good Lord! What is this?" Fry whispered as he started to walk in the ruins. As he kept walking, as he looked closer to the buildings, he started to recognize some of them. "Is this... what my home looks like now as opposed to a thousand years ago? It... can't be..."
Fry continued walking, little realizing what was going on above ground.
Next time, as Fry explores Old New York, Amy and Bender are on the search for Fry to save him from a certain Cyclops! Will they succeed in finding each other? We'll be right back!
