CHAPTER TWELVE: OPERATION TAKE REMY DOWN
Timmy and his godfamily looked stunned. Timmy was the one who first spoke,
"How did you find him?"
"Well," said A.J., "I hope you didn't mind but I've been in the Timmy Cave tracking him down. I'm sorry I didn't tell you but I didn't want you to worrry."
Timmy raised his eyebrows a bit and asked,
"Worry? Why would I worry?"
"Well," said A.J. "I guess I can tell you now; I've just disconnected a bug that was in your room and your parents station wagon."
"Wouldn't it have been easier to call the exterminator?," said Cosmo in all seriousness.
Timmy looked a bit annoyed at Cosmo.
"Not that kind of bug, Cosmoron. A hidden microphone." Timmy paused. "That's explains why Remy knew my every move." Then Timmy added, "Yeah, but won't Remy get suspicious if the bug is suddenly cut off."
A.J. smiled and said,
"Not to worry, Timmy, I took care of that. As far as Remy is concerned, the conversation is still going on. I linked up my computer to the Timmy Cave SuperComputer and I'm running a similation program that mimics the personalities and voices of everyone in this house. I, also, tracked the transmission to Mount Doomsdale."
"Mount DOOOMSDALE?" said Wanda, "Isn't that kind of..."
"Clicheish?" A.J. said, "Yeah, I already thought of that." Then A.J. added, "Buddy, I'm sorry going about into the underground cave and using your computer without your permission, but I didn't want to put any more worry on you."
Timmy smiled, shooked his head and stated,
"A.J. if it were anyone else, I might mind, but not you. I know I can trust you especially in terms of science and techonology. I know that anything that you do for me is only to help me. That's why I don't mind that you gave me that shot that protected me from Forgetcin."
"Well," said Wanda, "this may be all well and good, but now that we know where Remy is, what do we do?" She paused. "And A.J. if Norm escaped to stop Remy like you say, how does that play into it?"
"Actually," said A.J. "just before you poofed me here I was wondering what to do. I really wasn't sure what to do. I was going to get Chester and him and I would have tried to work something out." A.J. smiled and turned to face Timmy. "But this may have worked out better. I was just wishing that I could think like you."
Timmy looked at A.J. strangley and then said,
"Why? Because you want to fail at what you're doing?"
"Timmy, will you stop cutting yourself down," said A.J. a bit exasperated, "I may be the resident genius of Dimmsdale, but I'm not the leader you are and I can't map out strategies like you can."
"That's what I always try to tell him," said Wanda, "he won't listen to me either."
"Well," said Cosmo, "shouldn't we call the police."
Poof, Wanda, Timmy and A.J. looked at Cosmo with disbelief and Timmy spoke up,
"You mean the same Dimmsdale Police Department that I fooled with a painting of a reinassance women; The same police department that thought Francis was a model citizen even as he stole merchandise right under their nose at the Wall 2 Wall Mart; The same....,"
"Okay," said Cosmo, "Timmy I get the point, but that still doesn't solve the problem of Remy."
Timmy thought for a second,
"Well, first of all A.J., how long is that computer simulation going to keep playing?"
"For twenty-four hours; Well, now twenty-three."
"Okay," said Timmy, "That means that we've got until 9:00 P.M. tomorrow evening to catch Remy." He paused. "The best way to catch Remy is to make him think he's won the game, and that nobody can catch him. You've taken a good step in that direction, A.J. with that computer program by the way. Great job buddy."
A.J. smiled with a bit of pride and said,
"Thanks."
"Of course, we're on a timetable," added Timmy, "we have some time, so let's make most of it." He paused. "But I don't want my parents accidently hearing us, so Cosmo, Wanda, Poof, I wish that we were all in the Timmy Cave and that there was a clone to take my place for the next twenty four hours."

Norm was searching for Remy using his magic. According to his magic senses, Remy was on Mount Doomsdale. He was hoping to take Remy by surprise. Buxaplenty's was so obsessed with killing Turner that he wouldn't likely notice Norm's sneak attack on him. At least Norm hoped.
*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Timmy, his godfamily, and A.J. "poofed" into the underground base. Timmy noticed that he was still in bed.
"You poofed my bed in here?", said the buck toothed blue eyed boy.
"Yes, I did,Timmy," said Wanda.
"Then how am I going to help you catch Remy?"
A.J. looked stunned,
"Timmy, I didn't say you were going to physically help me. I said you were going to help me plan it. You're not in any shape to travel up that mountain and take on Remy."
"I've done things when I've been hurt before," objected Timmy.
"Yeah," said A.J., "We all know that. It wasn't a good idea then, and it's not a good idea now."
"Oh, come on A.J., all I need is some crutches...."
"Timmy, No!," said Wanda, "A.J.'s right."
"I'll be fine," said Timmy as he got out of the bed.
"Timmy, get back in that bed buddy, or I will sedate you," said A.J. "and plan this out myself. You know I have no problem with putting a needle in you if it's to help you."
Upon hearing that, Timmy got back into bed.
"Good," said A.J., "now let's get down to business."

Norm was getting close to Remy. He felt really confident about this; he'd escaped from Abracatraz prison, fooled Binky and made a fool out of Jorgen. He was riding high. Until Jorgen appeared in front of with a smoof blanket.
