The boys, unaware that Goddard had snuck off to Retroville and shown the footage to the girls, were now back at Timmy's house munching on some pizza that his mom ordered.
"What a great day, thanks for that tip about the salon Turner. I think I'll check it out once we get back to Retroville." Jimmy said. Carl and Sheen nodded in agreement, unable to talk due to their mouths being stuffed with food.
"Ah you're welcome guys. It's good to pamper yourself sometimes. Hey if the girls can do it, so can we. Now to explain to Tootie why I always begged off whenever she suggested it is another matter!" Timmy said, finishing with a laugh.
Back in Retroville, the destructive search for the portal continued.
"When I get my hands on that boyfriend of mine, he will learn some god damn respect!" Cindy cried, her anger seething in her very core.
"Timmy thought he had seen it all before with me and especially with my older sister, but he's about to be proven wrong!" an enraged Tootie replied. They continued to search while a dumbfounded Libby, Trixie, and Veronica just looked on.
"They musta done something major to piss them off this bad." Trixie whispered.
"Uh huh, like I don't know what, and honestly I really don't want to know." Veronica replied softly.
"Jimmy was always good at that. He always found a way to shove his whole leg into his throat!" Libby said barely above a whisper.
"Same for Timmy, he's really smart, but sometimes he does and says the dumbest things." Veronica and Trixie said at the same time.
The boys meanwhile were just sitting back and talking away. Finally, it was Sheen that realized that something was amiss, or rather that someone was missing.
"Uh, where's Goddard?" he asked suddenly. The rest looked around and finally realized that the mechanical mutt was nowhere in sight. Jimmy flipped on his wrist communicator,
"Calling Goddard, where are you boy?" he asked. A few seconds later, they all could hear barking coming from the small device.
"You went back to the lab to recharge? Ok boy, but next time tell me ok?" he said back. That got another series of barks, "I understand boy, just recharge for a little while and I'll walk you as soon as we get back to Retroville. Jimmy out."
In the lab, Cindy and Tootie were tearing the place apart like experts. They didn't care what they tore up in their search for the other "Porta-portal".
"You know, the longer it takes to find this thing, the angrier I get!" Tootie yelled from one side of the lab.
"You're not lying, those boys are as good as dead when we finally get back to Dimmsdale!" Cindy yelled back. The other three sat there quietly, not knowing that if they said a word what Cindy or Tootie would do.
Back at Timmy's, Jimmy had a concerned look on his face as he paced the floor.
"When I was talking to Goddard, it sounded like Cindy and Tootie were yelling and tearing up the lab!" Timmy put his hand on Jimmy's shoulder to reassure him.
"Nah, that's just your imagination running wild. They know nothing of what we said, so stop being paranoid and enjoy what's left of today!"
Jimmy smiled at his old friend, "Your right, it's all just happenstance. Is there anymore pepperoni and mushroom left?" The rest laughed as Jimmy rejoined the game of "D.D.W.F.: At Your Home" they were playing.
The girls were still unsuccessful in their search, so they decided to take a break. Cindy and Tootie sat side by side on the other side of the lab.
"What in the world could have convinced the boys to talk about us like that? Timmy said some very personal things about me and my relationship with my sister Vicky." Tootie said.
Cindy just stared at the floor, "Jimmy didn't have to go on about my cycle and my mom. I know my mom can be a little…harsh at times, but it was totally uncalled for and he must pay!" The two shook hands, then Tootie added:
"But I'm not breaking up with Timmy, I worked too damn hard to get him."
Cindy smiled at that, "I'm not breaking up with Jimmy either, I'm just gonna put the fear of God into him!" The two smiled wickedly, and went back to work trying to find the portal.
While the games went on, Timmy and Jimmy sat off by themselves quietly talking.
"You know Neutron, I do feel kinda bad about what I said about Tootie. She is really sweet 99 percent of the time, it's just that when she's having her period, she can be a real mega bitch. I think it comes from living for so many years with Vicky." Timmy said.
Jimmy sighed and shook his head. "I know what you mean, I've really gotten to know Cindy since we started dating, and she really isn't that abrasive. It's all a front really, I think there was some abuse, just like with Tootie, just not on as big a scale."
Timmy clapped Jimmy on the back and gave him a warm smile.
"We have two great girls you know, I still kick myself for avoiding Tootie when we were younger, but she was so damn creepy. She would follow me around with some sort of genetic tracker, she would scream and holler whenever I was around, and even built a "Timmy Love Shrine" in her bedroom. But she honestly loved me, even when I wasted my time on hounding Trixie."
Jimmy just gave him a stunned look at what he just told him. "Yes, I had the hots for one of my best friends. I'm not proud of it, for the most part, I was shallow back in the day. I was only concerned about looks, and not what was on the inside. But we have since moved on and Trixie really is a nice girl, it just took puberty to bring it out."
Jimmy smiled at his old friend. It was apparent to him the Timmy had really matured since the last time the two crossed paths.
"Yeah we do have great girls. We shouldn't have said those things, but at the time it felt right. It felt like I was getting it off my chest."
Timmy nodded in agreement with his old friend. "You know we're gonna get an ass whoopin' if they ever find out right?" Timmy asked.
"Yeah I kinda figure on that. Those kicks from Cindy hurt, especially when she goes for the ribs, she never kicks me in the head or the crotch, saying she has to protect the income and the next generation!"
Timmy laughed, "Yeah, I always get punched in the gut or the ribs, she never hits below the belt, saying she wants children when we get married."
If the girls had heard what the boys had just been saying, maybe they wouldn't be on this destructive quest. They continued to search high and low, until Tootie saw something out of the corner of her eye.
"Veronica, stand up for a minute please." Tootie said. Veronica immediately stood up and Tootie reached back into a cabinet. She pulled out the object of their search!
"I found it!" Tootie yelled to Cindy.
"Good, now Nerd-tron taught me how to use this once, all you have to do is input the coordinates and throw it down and poof, instant portal."
Cindy set to work in inputting the necessary coordinates, while the rest of them prepared to make the trip back to Dimmsdale.
"When we get back, we have to make a stop off at my house." Tootie said. The others just looked at her. "You'll see why." is all she said. After all the coordinates were put in, Cindy tossed the device to the floor and up sprouted a new portal.
"Well, let's do this!" She said as she stepped through. The rest followed, and they once again found themselves on the outskirts of Dimmsdale.
The boys had finished playing the wrestling video game (with Timmy being crowned "World Heavyweight Champion"), and now were outside throwing the football around. It soon turned into a 3-on-3 game featuring the "Dimmsdale Dingos" vs. the "Retroville Rage". They had fun playing the game and pounding on one another in a full contact game. The game ended with no winner, due to the fact that they didn't keep score, and they were now in the garage drinking soda. Jimmy and Timmy were still nervous, but confident that there was no way the girls found out about what they said.
The girls meanwhile, were hoofing it back towards the McDonald household. Trixie and Veronica had a clue as to why they were going there first, but Cindy and Libby were clueless. They arrived, and found that Tootie's parents were not home. She led them upstairs to what was now a computer/study room. She flipped the light switch on, then off, then on again. The walls spun around, revealing mostly empty spaces. However, there was one space that seemed to conceal a drawer. Tootie walked over and pulled it open, revealing a small arsenal of various weapons and torture devices!
The other girls were speechless at the sight of the weapons.
"But I thought your parents made Vicky take everything with her when she moved out!" Trixie gasped.
"They did, but she left a couple of things here, just in case Timmy got out of line. These, she said, always kept him in line when she babysat him. Let's see if I have my sister's touch." She said, pulling out a medieval flail and handing it to Cindy, while taking out a small flamethrower for herself. It was then that Trixie, Veronica, and Libby surmised that the two boys had done something bad on a monumental scale to have these two resorting to weapons.
As the sun began to descend in the cloudless, late spring sky, the boys were finishing yet another case of soda, while two young ladies were preparing to bring down their bad mouthing boyfriends. The boys had stuffed their entire legs into their mouths this time and they had to pay the price. Their girls still loved them for sure, but they at the same time had to show them just who was boss in both dimensions. The storm was brewing, and this time, Timmy Turner and Jimmy Neutron had no way out…or did they?
A/N: Read and review please. I decided to keep it short so I could get the full impact of Tootie and Cindy's rage in the next chapter. Do Jimmy Neutron and Timmy Turner have a prayer of surviving this, or will the girls go too far to get their revenge? Stay tuned to find out!
