Disclaimer: Nooo. I don't own Jimmy Neutron.

A/N: Well guys. Here's an update. I don't know when there will be an update of love last anytime soon. I'm really out of it [I'm sick…]. So originally I had a totally different story planned but I think it will go so that It will match the prologue. I don't know really how well this is written, and I apologize if its completely crap. But on the plus side I made it longer! So, guys, I have a deviant Art. This story is also on there, and when I have time, eventually love last's will be on there also. I'm practicing drawing so, if anyone wants me to follow them on there or if anyone wants to follow me there, my username is xxieatedyourpiexx. Well. Hope you enjoy.(:

Chapter 1: Dictators, Marriage, and Memories

My hands slid over a rim of a chair, while my eyes remained closed. No one was going to recognize me, which was obvious. I didn't look the same as before and on top of that I am supposed to be dead. My small hometown, which had been up to recently, a peaceful city, was now the most dangerous city in the country. No one at work really understood why, of all cities, a leader like dictator would start in Retroville, but it was known that if he wasn't stopped, he would eventually try to conquer the country and then the world. I took a deep breath and slowly sat down.

My mission was to blend in. Although Retroville was dangerous, it still had many of its old charms. I was making a 'Life' here. I would work undercover, directly for the man in charge of all this mayhem. Our government though wanted to make sure that I looked as normal as possible. Since I had last lived in Retroville, my appearance and name had changed. Instead of Cindy Vortex I was Alena Taylor. My first name was about the only thing I actually kept. My blonde hair had been dyed a midnight black and my emerald eyes were now a soft baby blue. My boss, Shaun Declan, had thought of what I might need. I had a brand new home, a decent car, a 'stable' job, and even a husband. I had been unhappy to hear about the husband part but it was nice to have someone to work with. That way if I went down, he was going down too.

I opened my eyes and smiled at my surroundings. An older man walked up to me and smiled down at me. "New to town? I've never seen ya before. Though I'm shocked to see a new person, no one seems to want to move here. Have any idea what you want?" he said. I looked up, trying to prevent myself from smiling. It was Sam. Oh I missed the Candy bar. I missed it so much.

"Oh yeah. I just got here, haven't even been to the new house yet. My husband and I got transferred here for some reason. It was good money though, and since we're newlyweds we needed the money. Any suggestions for what I should order?" I said. It was a weird feeling saying the words 'my husband'. Sam studied me.

"So you must be the new couple that moved into the old Neutron house. Those Neutron's, it's not the same without them here," Sam said with a sigh. "Anyways, my person favorite is Tropical Paradise. Pineapple-strawberry ice cream covered in tropical fruit with whipped cream and nuts covering it." He said his sigh this time more blissful then the last.

"The Neutrons? What happened to them?" I asked slowly. I knew Jimmy was gone, but what happened to his parents.

"Oh the Neutrons left about three years ago. Their son, Jimmy, died with his girlfriend in a boating accident. It was tragic. The boy was a genius and the girl was beautiful. The two were destined for a great life together, anyone could tell that. They never found the two kid's bodies, but it was pronounced that they were dead. It was a sad moment for those two families. I took about a year for the Neutrons to leave, but they did. Haven't been back since, and the house has been empty since they left. The Vortex's though, the girl's family, is still here." He told me. I stared at him. So that's how the story was told to them? I was told Jimmy had just disappeared and that no one knew where he was. My heart felt pain as I stared up into the older man.

"I think I'll have the Tropical Paradise then." I said softly. Sam nodded and walked away. I looked around at who was actually in the Candy bar. I was waiting for my 'husband' and for I knew he was already here. I looked at all the people there, and then started realizing that I knew these people. My eyes locked onto one person in particular. Libby Folfax was sitting in the middle of the room hand in hand with someone. I couldn't tell who she was with, but I knew that was Libby. I desperately wanted to go up to her and hug her. I knew I couldn't, a complete stranger coming to hug you, would just be entirely creepy.

"Ms. Taylor?" I heard a voice say. I quickly turned around, coming face to face with an extremely handsome man. "You are Alena Taylor right?" he said in a low voice so that only I could hear him.

"May ask, who are you? I just moved here with my husband, so I don't understand how you would know me." I said, trying to sound annoyed. He was very handsome, I could not deny that. His hair was dark brown almost black color and he had dazzling hazel eyes. His smile was adorable. His smile, it looked so much like Jimmy's smile. In fact, his face shape was exactly like Jimmy's. I blinked. No this wasn't Jimmy it couldn't be.

"Well isn't it obvious, I'm Mr. Taylor, Timothy Taylor to be exact. Your husband." He said. Right this man was my husband. I looked away.

"Oh right. Sorry, I wasn't given any pictures or names. I was just told to come to Retroville, go to the candy bar, and sit down to order. Then I had to wait for you. " I said, my voice strained. He nodded.

"Oh well. Sorry to hear that. I was given that information, your boss should have given you my details." He muttered. I sighed. Stupid stupid Shaun. Just then Sam came back to the table, holding my Tropical Paradise.

"Here you go ma'am, one tropical Paradise," he started. His eyes darted to the man sitting in front of me. "I presume you're her husband? Would you like anything?" he asked. Timothy shook his head.

"No, I think I'll take some ice cream from my wife. I had a few things I had to do before coming here, but we are both very tired and think we might be heading to our new home." He said smoothly. Sam nodded and walked away. I looked at my ice cream and took a spoonful. It tasted amazing. They certainly did not have this last time I was here. That was for sure. "Any idea where our home is at? That was one of the details the boss didn't tell me." He said. I stop eating my ice cream.

"Sam, the ice cream guy, said it was the old Neutron home. He said that was the only empty house here that actually was livable. Sam said they left three years ago. Their son and his girlfriend pretty much disappeared." I said softly. Timothy stared at me, a look of discomfort arising in his face.

"Right, well, um. Maybe you should get that in a to go cup or something? Let's go to this new house of ours. I'm curious to see it." He said softly. I nodded and got up.

"Um, Sam isn't it? Can I have a to go cup or something? My husband and I are anxious to look at our new home." I said softly. Sam stared at me, and then handed a cup.

"Do you need someone to show you there?" he asked. I bit my lip. I already knew where it was, but I couldn't say that.

"Uh sure. Thanks that would be nice." I said reluctantly.

"Carl! Hey Carl!" he said. I looked over to see a red head man and a lady turn their heads. The man had been holding a spoon up to a little girl as if he was trying to feed her ice cream.

"Yeah Sam?" Carl said. I studied 'Carl' and felt my stomach drop. It was Carl Wheezer. There was no doubt about that.

"Remember how they were saying you were getting neighbors in the old Neutron place? This is your new neighbor, uh," he stopped.

"Oh um Alena Taylor. That's my husband over there. We just moved here." I said. Carl smiled at me and nodded. I relaxed. He didn't recognize me. So far this was good. I led Carl over to my table and started filling the cup with the ice cream. "Honey, this is Carl. He's our next door neighbor, he's going to show us to our house." I said, my voice trying to hide the fact I knew this man from the past. Timothy stared at him, and then stood up to take his hand.

"I'm Timothy Taylor. I see you have already met my wife. Thank you so much for offering to take us home. Maybe tomorrow night you and your family could come over for a barbeque?" he said. I stared at Timothy. Did he also know Carl already? Was this actually Jimmy?

"Nice to meet you. The name is Carl, Carl Wheezer. My wife, Alva, is over there with our daughter Ellie." He said, his voice filled with pride as he mentioned his wife. My heart started to beat fast as I stared at my old friends.

"Who ya talking to Carl?" A young man said behind Carl. Carl turned and grinned.

"Well somehow, we got new neighbors. They are the Taylor's. They just moved into…Jimmy's old house." Carl said, hesitating at Jimmy's name. I glanced at Timothy, checking to see if he was showing any emotion towards that. He wasn't. I sighed, maybe this isn't Jimmy.

"Oh well then. The name is Sheen Estevez and this is my wife Libby." He said. Something in my chest relaxed. So Libby had married Sheen after all. That's good. I smiled.

"It's nice to meet you all." I said softly. Oh god this was going to be hard. I glanced over to Timothy and surprisingly I noticed the same expression. Maybe it was him? "I don't mean to sound rude, but can someone show us to our home. We drove our way here and I'm actually ready to crash." I said. Carl looked up.

"Oh right, yeah. Well then let's go!" he said. I dropped a five dollar bill on the table, motioning to Sam so he would see it, and then pulled Timothy with me. It was time to start my new life.

A/N: Well how was it? Crappy? Good? Boring? Tell me….
