Hello! Bonjour! Hola! And all other forms of saying hi. This is Chapter 9! This story has gotten a lot of support, and I really appreciate it! A special thanks Rin Fang, randompandattack, RR, chipmunk4reals, gery900, and K.C. Ellison. You guys and girls ROCK! By the way, if you like Looks Can Be Deceiving, please check out my other story. It's called Angel, and I've only got 2 or 3 reviews so far. I would sure like a few more. Just go to my profile, limegreenpandagirl, and you'll find it. Thanks in advance!
P.S. Just in case you're curious, in Chapter 8, the dance part was inspired by the song Fearless by Taylor Swift. It just came to me, and stuck! I don't own the song, but you should check it out too. I don't own Fairly Odd Parents. (I sure wish I did, cuz it's such a funny show!) However I did create Jenny. She is my OC.
Chapter 9
Jenny arrived back at Anti Cosmo's castle at 9:30 after a lovely dinner at Timmy's house and a movie at the theatre. She smiled briefly, remembering the delicious roast beef, potatoes, and green beans Timmy's mother had prepared, and how nicely she had been treated. Timmy's parents had welcomed her into their home with open arms, willing to talk with her as though they had known her since birth.
And the movie had been great. She and Timmy had chosen an action movie, that kept them on their toes. They had sat in the very front row and shared a jumbo tub of popcorn. Jenny sighed wistfully as she remembered touching Timmy's hand a few times as they had both reached into the tub to get some of the buttery goodness. Timmy had even gone so far as to put his arm around her at the very end when the last scene made her cry.
Suddenly a creak made her jump and snap back to reality. Rolling her eyes, she called out, "I know you're standing behind me."
"Getting more observant. That's good." Anti Cosmo stepped out of the shadows and smiled evilly. "No, I'm not getting more observant. I've been here for over a year. I know the drill for when I'm late." snapped Jenny impatiently.
"Really? A whole year? How wonderful! We should have celebrated." Anti Cosmo said with joy, poofing up a plate of crumpets smothered with jam. He offered Jenny one. "Crumpet?"
Jenny shoved the plate away from her face. "Celebrate? What's to celebrate? Congratulations, you've owned me for a year, keep up the good work?" she grumbled, mockingly acting happy.
"What has caused this sudden change in attitude Jennifer?" Anti Cosmo asked in surprise. He had not been expecting this. "Could it possibly be because of Timothy Turner? Are you 2 getting a little bit too close? You seemed VERY happy dancing with him in the rain."
"What are you talking-" Jenny started to say, but then realized what was going on. "You were spying on us?"
"Yes Jennifer, I was watching you and Timothy. I have never liked Timothy because he is a scheming, immature boy who has destroyed every single attempt I have made at world domination. He is my worst enemy."
Jenny snarled furiously at Anti Cosmo. "Good! You don't deserve to rule the world anyways."
Anti Cosmo chose to ignore this comment and continue speaking. "I have noticed how much Turner trusts you, which is good, because now I have made a fool proof plan to capture Timothy Turner and finally have world domination!" After this, he let out an evil laugh that echoed throughout the castle. "And it involves…You."
"Oh no!" Jenny cried out angrily. "There is no way that you're making me betray Timmy. We trust each other."
"Which is exactly why I need you, Jennifer." Anti Cosmo coolly stated. "Timothy trusts you. You can get close to him, and then, when he least expects it, pounce like a cat! And he shall finally be out of my way!"
Defiantly, Jenny spoke bluntly. "I'm not doing it. You don't scare me anymore Anti Cosmo. In fact, I'm SICK of you! I'm sick of your chores, I'm sick of your cruelty, I'm sick of you calling me Jennifer, and I'm sick of your threats. I can't believe that I was so stupid to actually believe that you could be trusted, when in reality, you're nothing but a big, fat, British accented, JERK!"
"Jennifer…" Anti Cosmo started to speak angrily, but Jenny interrupted him. "What are you gonna do? Huh? Go ahead, break my life chain if you want. Because I would rather die then betray Timmy."
Not wanting to be anywhere near Anti Cosmo, Jenny swung the door open and started walking out. But she had just stepped outside when Anti Cosmo said casually, "What if I told you I could fix everything?"
Jenny paused and turned around. "What?"
"Jennifer, I know that becoming a Bornagain was hard on you. Your family and friends didn't recognize you, or want anything to do with you. You had nowhere to go. I can change all of that." Anti Cosmo's voice was cool and persuading. "I can't make you alive, but I can make everyone love you again. You'll be able to live with your family and hang out with Hannah, your best friend. Everything will be as it was before you drowned. But you have to help me first."
Jenny closed the door again and faced Anti Cosmo. She folded her arms across her chest and glared suspiciously at him. "You can turn things back to the way they were?" she asked skeptically.
Anti Cosmo nodded and placed a cold blue hand on her shoulder. His green eyes stared almost hypnotically into Jenny's hazel eyes. "I can make you happy."
Thoughts raced through Jenny's mind. "Should I? Or shouldn't I?" She was on the verge of saying yes, when suddenly she heard Timmy's voice. "If you ever need help, I promise I'll be there for you."
Instantly her memories of Timmy overflowed in her mind. Meeting him in class, talking at lunch, telling their biggest secrets, dancing and eating ice cream in Freeze, having dinner with his parents, and sitting beside each other in the movie theatre. "He would be there for me, so I should be there for him." Jenny decided. So still looking into Anti Cosmo's eyes, she spoke her decision.
"I'm already happy. I don't need you to turn things back to the way they were. In fact, I don't trust that you would do it anyway! So I'm not betraying Timmy." Then without a final word, she walked straight past Anti Cosmo to head to her bedroom. Anti Cosmo was left dumbfounded. When he finally found his voice, he glowered and whispered threateningly, "You just made a huge mistake Jennifer. A huge mistake."
The end of Chapter 9! Well, what do you think? Was Anti Cosmo being sneaky or what? hehehe, he's such an evil little anti fairy. But so awesome to watch. Please read and review! Until next time! Bye!
