Chapter 11:

Disclaimer: I do not own WordGirl. WordGirl is owned by Soup2Nuts and Scholastic.

Hey fellow WG fans! It is Christmas Vacation and I plan to make the most of it! This story has been driving me crazy. The reason? Well, because it has been gathering dust for over a year now. I just reread it like the other day. I mean it is O-K, so I will see if I can keep it going and possibly finish it. :D Thanks for all your support loyal reviewers.

Dedication: This story is dedicated to the Lord and my little sister. I love you both so SO VERY MUCH.


WordGirl and Huggy took off in hot pursuit.

"Ok Huggy, the help guy said something about the city's power plant being in trouble. So, you know what villain that probably will be?"

Huggy scratched his head.

"Cheep?" The monkey shrugged.

"No, not Granny May. It will probably be the Energy Monster, right? You know because it is always attracted to electricity?"

"Squeak! Squeak!"

Huggy was never much for WordGirl's villain trivia.

"Ok! Ok! We will just see when we get there!"

In a flash, the two arrived at the power plant. WordGirl was rather shocked to see no Energy Monster.

Huggy gave her a proud look as to say 'well who's wrong now'.

It was a very strange scene. Lifeless wires were all over the ground. The workers were all frantically running around. A huge hole was on the side of the building. WordGirl quickly rushed in through the hole.

"What happened here?" WordGirl asked a nearby power plant worker.

The familiar power plant lady greeted WordGirl and began to explain. "…So, these two guys with a mouse logo on their chest who said they "were NOT Dr. Two Brains henchmen" came and stole the most important device in the entire factory!"

"What device?" Now WordGirl was really curious.

Why would Two Brains steal a power plant machine?

"It is the Orbiculate Electricity Generator. It looks like a big circular hoop! Without it the city could be powerless for months!"

"Whoa! Now that does sound pretty bad." No pretty princess for months?

No way!

WordGirl was going to find the Doc and stop him.

"No worries! Huggy and I are on the case! Come on CHF!" WordGirl cheerfully announced and grabbed her sidekick.

Honestly, WordGirl wanted to stay at the power plant and investigate, but any minute from now recess was about to end. Urgh… school, just thinking the word made her cheeks grow hot. She had gotten an F on a history report, made a scene about it, and fought with Tobey. Though, the one thing she couldn't get over was how Tobey actually helped her out. It was just strange, even for Tobey.

Then, the guilt set in.

"Oh come on! Why am I feeling guilty?" WordGirl thought.

Her conscious just wouldn't let her have a break today. The whole scene of her fight with Tobey was on replay in her mind.

It wasn't the first time.

The similar thing had happened not long ago when WordGirl teased Tobey alongside Ms. Powers. The guilt was still there, but never once did the superhero apologize to him. Mainly out of the fear of letting anyone in the city (including Tobey) think that she even remotely cared about him…Which, of course she didn't.

She just couldn't help but feel a tad bit sorry for him. He had a notorious bad guy background… but Tobey wasn't all bad. Becky witnessed it today. Of course, Theodore 'Tobey' McCalister III was a notorious villain himself with the whole 'sending evil robots to destroy the city' thing, but still WordGirl always thought if any villain were to change it would most likely be… Tobey.

The superhero sped through the air as fast as she could trying to get to school. Huggy was holding on for dear life.


A blaze of sparks flew out from beneath the tarp. Dr. Two Brains was madly at work on the device. His henchmen stood a distance away watching and wondering, what he was creating.

Suddenly, the sparks ceased and the doc gave a loud cackle.

"It is finally finished, boys." Two Brains came out from beneath the sheet and pulled his goggles back.

As soon as he did, the mousy scientist started a new task. Running off, Two Brains began gathering his belongings and stuffing them in a suitcase.

"Are we going on vacation, boss?" The talkative henchman questioned.

The doctor, with arms full of supplies, stopped in front of his henchmen.

"No, we aren't going on vacation!"

Dropping the suitcases and equipment in a disorderly pile, Two Brains brushed off some sweat. Then, he quickly ran over to his covered invention and grabbed the tarp.

"Henchmen, we are going back into the past." The scientist pulled off the cloth to reveal a huge circular machine hooked up to a complicated generator with a small computer-like control pad on the bottom. A mix of oohs and aahs could be heard from the talkative henchman as the two marveled at the beautiful invention.

Dr. Two Brains ran over to the device.

"Henchmen, this is a time machine. We are going to use it to go back in time and steal that cheese statue. Once we get it, we will head back through this time machine's portal and that should take us back to our present time. When we get back I will eat that statue and rub my victory in those other second rate villains' faces. Sound good?"

"Um…sure boss," the talkative henchman answered very nervously.

"Now to set the date…Hmmm…" The scientist scanned the machine looking for the control panel.

"Ah here we go."

"Um…today's date is May 12 and the year we are going back to…is 1853 and that should do it!"

The doc had finished typing in the date and the time machine flicked to life. (Similar to a star gate portal) The center of the machine flashed an immensely bright blue light. The light swirled in circles like a whirl pool.

"Mwhaha success! Alright henchmen, lets-" The scientist was abruptly cut off by the rushing of wind coming from the machine. Suddenly, the blue light began to spin faster and faster and FASTER! His feet started to drag closer to the glow. Dr. Two Brains eyes grew wide,

"Oh no."

The suitcases and equipment flew into the portal.

"Whoa! Boss…."

The two henchmen suddenly were snatched into the portal.

Dr. Two Brain felt the ground slip from beneath him. This was definitely NOT what he intended to happen. Out of nowhere, one of his rays came from behind and caused him to lose his balance. He fell too close to the wild time machine. Within an instant, the current pulled him into the hole.

"Ahh!"

Wooosh!

*BOOM*

In a flash of light and an ear piercing crackle, the abandoned warehouse settled into silence.


"AHK!"

WordGirl placed her hands over her ears in agony. All she could hear was ringing. The superhero slowly lowered herself onto a nearby building, feeling dizzy and stunned.

Setting her sidekick down, she quickly sat beside him.

"Squeak?"

"Huggy, you wouldn't believe what I just heard."


Ooo...The portal is working...duh..duh...DUH! Haha it took me SO long just to write this little bit of the story :P. I was under a HORRIBLE case of writers block.
