Chapter 45: doom Doom DOOM!
(In the Stoppable Home)
The villain zips through time, trying to hurry to the barrier when suddenly he feels a hand grab at his ankle. He looks down at his ankle and gasps as he sees Jesse grabbing onto him and he had a feeling he knew what the next thing he would hear is.
Jesse says, "Give me Cindy!"
The villain sighs as he knew it and says, "Let go of me! All I want is out the blasted bubble!"
Jesse says, "Not with Cindy!"
The villain flash ages Jesse's hand into a skeleton causing an immediate release but no sooner than he was free, Jesse's hand grew right back. He says, "You know, I really hate that trick of yours."
Jesse says, "Give me Cindy and you'll never have to see it again."
The villain says, "Somehow I doubt that…" He puts on a burst of speed to put him out of Jesse's reach again. He looks forward to see the barrier rapidly appearing before him and knew that it was extremely dangerous but if his idea worked, he would be free!
The villain does a full body blast to push Jesse back, sending him backwards through time for a few moments, which buys him enough time to begin the first step of his plan.
The villain first had to find a weak spot in the shield, preferably one that wasn't too ravaged by time storms or he might still be destroyed getting through.
The first part, finding a weak spot was easy enough as the entire thing was one big wall of chaotic time. The next part though was a bit trickier for the very same reason.
The villain finally spots the most stable spot over the Stoppable house; ironically it looked to be almost directly over the very spot where the other timerider had perished years ago in the past from the point in time where he was.
The villain then creates a circular of focused time to act as a safety bubble and just barely large enough for him to sit down comfortably in since he wasn't going to be taking Cindy along with him.
The villain then turns as he puts a different type of time bubble around Cindy and grins darkly as he thinks, "Soon, if my plan works I will be out of this accursed place and have finally defeated that guy who has been chasing me everywhere and saying…" His thoughts are interrupted as he hears Jesse say, "Give me Cindy! I won't allow you to harm her or use her for your own evil little plans! She has family and friends that love her and I swore long ago that I would never let my two best friends down."
The villain cocks his head to one side, grinning evilly as he allows Cindy to wake up from the temporal deep sleep that he had cast upon her. It was a trick that timeriders could use to keep their timeline identities from being discovered.
The villain says, "So… since you said family and friends, does that mean you love Cindy too?" He makes the bubble holding Cindy cloudy from seeing in but clear to see out as Cindy shakes her foggy head, her eyes going wide and instantly alert with the words, and thinks, "Jesse!"
Jesse looks the villain straight in the eyes as he says in a serious voice, "Of course I love her! She is my best friend and there is nothing that I wouldn't do for her!"
Cindy's eyes nearly pop out of her head while her right hand quickly goes to cover her mouth as she gasps. She knew that Jesse cared about her and that he would do anything for her instinctively but to actually hear him say it. It made her cheeks go bright red and can see that the bubble she was in seemed to be like a one-way mirror but she didn't know if Jesse could hear her as well so she stays silent even as the villain says, "So you admit it! You love the girl… did you see the hot babe that she will grow up to be or did you miss that?"
Cindy wonders when that happened and figures that it was probably when she was knocked out. Still curious about Jesse's answer she leans up against the bubble to hear the answer.
Jesse says, "I saw and I also heard your plans for her! I will not allow you to use her as a sex slave!"
Cindy thoughts shout in her head, "WHAT? I would never be anyone's sex slave!" She balls hands into tight fists and thinks it is time that she tried to get out. She punches the wall but there is no discernable effect. She tries to punch harder and faster with the same effect. She even shouts, "Let me out!" in hopes that it will spur Jesse to take action.
The villain had made sure the only thing Cindy could do was listen, as he wanted to really and truly torture her if his plan succeeded. He says to Jesse, "Oh really? You're telling me that you haven't even thought about having sex with your girlfriend?"
Cindy stops pounding on the bubble, blushing as if she had been the one to be asked if she would have sex with Jesse as her boyfriend. She knew she would try to wait until they were married but… if the chance came up, she wouldn't resist it. Then thoughts of her mother and father disapproving such a thing popped into her mind and she sighs.
Jesse says, "What does any of this have to do with returning Cindy?" He felt a bit hot under the collar with his cheeks a little red. He did not like the villain's questions but as long as Cindy was in the bubble, presumably one that he could crush her or instantly age her to dust in. He would play along with the game, for her.
The villain eyes Jesse, seeing just how uncomfortable he was making the guy and says, "She IS your girlfriend right?"
Jesse shakes his head and says, "No, she is… she is my best friend in the whole world. She is closer to me than even Mindy. It would… be as her father would say, 'awk-weird' to even think about something like that. So please, give her back to me."
The villain shakes his head and says, "Not quite yet… I'm prepared to return her, unharmed to you if you'll keep answering my questions."
Jesse says, "Fine then, ask away but remember your promise."
The villain just smiles evilly and says, "I will. Now, have you ever thought about having either of them as your girlfriend? Maybe even both? After all, why guy could resist having two beautiful girls by his side, day in and day out…"
Jesse cuts him off as he shouts, "They're not like that! It… it isn't like that with them! They're my friends. I have their back and they have mine. I respect them and they respect me. They wouldn't see me in that kind of way, I imagine it would be like dating a brother to them."
The villain says with a wicked sneer in his voice, "So… you have thought about dating the two of them then?"
Jesse shakes his head and says, "No. I am certain that Mindy loves me as a close friend or family member." He is cut off as the villain says, "And what of the other girl, Cindy? I think you love her enough to… want to date her, but why don't you then?"
Cindy is lightly trembling as she waits for the answer that would make or break her heart.
Jesse is silent for a long time as he looks down at his feet before he looks up, meeting the villain in the eyes and says, "I don't know how she feels. If she has feelings for another like her sister does, then I will just stand by and be her friend, supporting her like I always have and will support her."
The villain laughs and says, "All this fight from you! All over a girl and you don't even know if she could ever love such a freak like you! You, who can heal from any kind of damage instantly! I can only imagine what your own family thinks of you! Hahahaha!"
Cindy's eyes water up moments before tears flow down her cheeks and she says, "He isn't a freak… I have never thought for a moment that ever was."
She then decides to step up in her attempts to get out and with a silent 'BOOM-FLASH' she turns on her full mystical monkey powers instantly instead of letting them build up like she normally did. She didn't have as much control over her powers but it did feel more powerful than normal for some reason.
Cindy roars primal like in monkey sound before smashing her twin glowing fists into the bubble, causing ripples to appear.
The villain doesn't notice the tiny ripples as they hadn't gone all the way to the surface yet and says, "You know I'm right. You don't think you have a chance do you? You know how beautiful she will become and you know that she is too good for you!"
Jesse says, "You might be right that I may never be loved by Cindy in that special way… She may have even have thought me as a freak before… She may even go on to marry, have kids just as her sister will… I doubt she will ever learn that I care deeply for her but there is one thing I am certain about."
The villain says, "Oh? And what is that you freak?"
Cindy stops for a moment to hear Jesse's answer with her twin glowing hands full of mystical power.
Jesse flares up in his temporal power to a brilliance that made the villain quite unnerved before he says with focused determination, "I will never let my friends, Cindy or Mindy… or even their family down. Whatever the cost because it would more painful than anything to lose their trust in me."
Cindy softly says, "Oh Jesse… I do trust you, with every fiber of my being and all my heart and soul… that's why I love you so."
Unknowingly both Jesse and Cindy move as one, with moving towards the villain with fist drawn back to punch him and Cindy doing the same.
However, the villain had been waiting for Jesse's attack. Hoping to goad him into attacking him and sends Cindy's bubble right at the temporal storm that was a part of the shield.
Jesse's eyes grow wide he realizes that the storm could destroy Cindy in a moment! He pushes himself like he'd never pushed himself before and flies past Cindy's bubble to put himself as a shield between the storm and her.
Jesse it hit with the bubble containing Cindy like a person being hit with a bowling ball being thrown hard at them. He is thrown back with his arms around the bubble instantly trying to enhance the shield around it to protect Cindy, weakening his own shield in the process.
The very violent temporal energies viciously attack Jesse's body, clawing and trying to destroy him.
The villain grins as he sees his plan happening exactly the way he had planned. He even makes the bubble containing Cindy clear so that Jesse could see inside, allowing the bubble's silence ability to also be turned off as he figures it would be more painful if they could hear each other.
Jesse's eyes go wide as he sees Cindy, flared up to full mystical monkey power with her fists pounding on the bubble as she shouts, "NO! JESSE! Noooo! Please! Forget about me and save yourself!"
Jesse weakly smiles at Cindy as he says, "I can't Cindy… I can't do that… If I must… ugggh… go saving your life… then I… nnnnnnngh willingly make that sacrifice."
Cindy's tears flow down her cheeks heavily as she says, "No! Don't be like that! Please! I couldn't bear to lose you Jesse!"
Jesse shakes his head as he says, "You… will be alive… oohhhh and that is what… uuuuuuhh counts… just tell my family… nnnnngghhhh I have no regrets."
Cindy is crying even more as she pounds against the bubble hard, creating ripples all over it as she shouts, "No! NO! NOO! Please Jesse! You can live! You MUST live!"
The villain pushes the bubble, forcing Jesse deeper into the temporal energies that eat at him. Yet his own temporal energies force the stable time to become even more stable as he tries to force it that way to keep Cindy safe.
Cindy looks at Jesse, watching up to half of him be destroyed and healed again in and instant but the look on Jesse's face told her that he was suffering greatly. She wondered how anyone could survive such agony without giving up and just letting him surrender to the pain. That was before she realizes that Jesse wasn't going to let go, surrender was not an option no matter how painful it was because he was doing it for her sake. He was protecting her.
Cindy stops pounding on the bubble as she leans her head forward, resting her forehead as close as she could to Jesse's and says tearfully, "No… please… Jesse, I am… I am not worth it. You are worth more than me…Let me go and save yourself… Please? For me?"
Jesse grunts as he heals his throat back long enough for him to say, "Sorry Cindy… you have… more people… who'd miss you… than me."
The villain grins as he notices that Jesse had broken through the inner shield and stabilized a path to the outer shield. Since Cindy's bubble was in the way and he saw a huge gaping hole in Jesse, he summons his own bubble and form it into a shape of a bullet with grappling spikes at the end.
The villain 'pops' the bubble containing Cindy and fires himself at the two. However, Jesse sees what the villain is doing and says, "Farewell Cindy…" as he uses what is left of his arms to push Cindy away from harm just as the villain then fires himself clean through the center of Jesse's temporal-wrecked body with the hooks digging into Jesse's body to pull him towards to surface with him but the violent energies quickly destroy the flesh of Jesse that had been pulled along. The bullet bubble rides the stabilized path up to the exit of the time bubble even as the villain laughs evilly in celebration, "Ah last! At last! I have left the accursed Stoppable home and destroyed that damnable guy who chased me through time itself for that girl!"
Meanwhile Cindy manages to 'swim' of sorts back to where all that she could see of Jesse was his hand that was halfway up to his elbow, which was still sticking out of whatever it was that the villain had shot himself into.
Cindy softly says to herself, "Please… please be ok… please be ok Jesse…" before she pulls on the hand. Tears flowing down her cheeks, as she fears that she had lost her best friend before she had ever gotten the chance to tell him that she loved him.
AN: Well everyone, I hope you enjoyed this emotional little chapter. I wonder if anyone shed a tear for Cindy or Jesse in this chapter? What did you think of the evil way that the villain tortured Cindy with information about Jesse's feelings, yet not letting her return the feelings? Do you think he knew that just surviving and knowing… would be worse than any physical pain he could unleash? What do you think of the conversation between Jesse and the villain? What did you think of the way that he had one last 'shot' at Jesse as he made good his escape? Was it emotional watching Jesse and Cindy's last words together? Do you think there is a chance that Jesse will survive? Will Cindy be able to survive without Jesse? Do you think she would want to?
