Chapter 2: Message Recieved
It had been 3 days since his friends have left. Jimmy had been deep in thought of way to communicate with them. Since he and Cindy partnered up, they had been trying countless ways to find a way to rescue them. They didn't want to just fly into space without a lead.
Cindy: We've been trying all day to find a way to rescue them. I think we need a break.
Jimmy: Take a break if you want, but I'm not stopping until we have a clue as to where they are.
Cindy: You especially need a break. You've been up for 3 days straight trying to find them, so sit down with me and have lunch.
Jimmy: I told you. I'm not stopping until I find them.
Cindy: You of all people should know that you should rest, otherwise you will lose focus and won't think straight.
Jimmy: I know, but the more breaks I take, the less likely I'll see them again.
Since Cindy mentioned the it, Jimmy started to feel weary. He realized that he hasn't eaten or slept in the past 72+ hours. It was starting to take a toll on him.
Jimmy: I guess I could sit down for a second. What do you have?
Cindy: I made some pb&j sandwiches, since we were gonna busy for a while.
He immediately starts scarfing down one of the sandwiches and finishing it in less than a minute.
Jimmy: That's the tastiest food I've had in days.
Cindy: (Chuckles) That's the only food you've had in days.
Jimmy: (Yawns) Thanks for dinner. I didn't think you had a nice side.
Cindy: Ha ha. Very funny. Anyway, you should probably get to bed.
Jimmy: No... I gotta...find them.
Out of strength, Jimmy falls asleep, and accidentally falls onto Cindy. She considered waking him up, or walking him to bed, but decided to enjoy this moment, since she secretly loves him and he felt very warm. About an hour later, she carried him to his bed back in the house, and then headed back to her place for the night.
Jimmy wakes up that next afternoon feeling curious as to how he got there. After getting some food, he decided to head back down to the lab to continue working. He decided to intercept any on-coming radio waves again. This time however, he got a transmission by a planet he hasn't heard of before called Zeenu. He then saw it was an audio message, but he wanted to invite Cindy over and get Goddard too.
Once they were over Jimmy started to explain.
Jimmy: I got an interesting signal from Zeenu, and I was able to find an audio message in the soundwaves. Judging by what it is, it might have a lead as to where they could be.
Cindy: Wait a minute. What makes you think it's a lead. For all we know, it's just a coincidence that this is happening at the same time as Llama Boy and Ultra Dork flew away.
Jimmy glared at her for a second, but then continued.
Jimmy: Let's take a listen to find out what it is.
He plays the audio on the computer, and much to their surprise, a voice that closely resembles Sheen is heard on the audio. In the background is heard laser fire.
Sheen over audio: Jimmy! Can you hear me? This is Sheen. Carl and I are stranded on the planet named Zeenu. You can probably get the coordinates by this message. I warn you though. This planet is easy to get to, but hard to get out of. You'll need assistance with you to get to us. The robots here are heavily armed and they will shoot to kill! I beg you. Please come and help us. We're sorry to steal your rocket.
Jimmy and Cindy listened in silence wondering what he'll say next.
Sheen over audio: I also realize that this message is transfered all over space, and this isn't for you, but if you live in a world conquered by evil, rise up! Break out! Fight for your families! Fight for your friends! There will be loss and sacrifice. But we can't back down just because we're afraid. That's when we need to stand the tallest. Push through until the battle's won!
As soon as the message ended, Cindy and Goddard looked at Jimmy wondering what he was thinking. Jimmy squinted his eyes shut for a second, but let tears out soon after. Knowing this was right Cindy embraced him feeling that he was sad.
Jimmy: It's one thing to be lost in space. I didn't anticipate them being in a war. Anything could happen to them between now and if we get there.
Cindy: I have a feeling they'll make it between now and WHEN we get there. Don't lose hope. We'll find them in no time so let's get some people and get packing.
Jimmy: No! I can barely trust myself that you won't get hurt, but I can't let others get involved in this situation. We gotta get going.
Cindy: The more people we have, the better chance we can take on the bad guys, save your friends and get outta there.
Jimmy: I'll need to think about it. Thanks for coming though. It means a lot.
Cindy: No problem.
To Be Continued...
AN: I'm leaving it to the viewers. Would you rather it just be Jimmy, Cindy, and Goddard, or do you want more characters, and if so who? Let me know in the reviews.
