Chapter 7: Kidnapping by Meldar Prime

"Hey, Jimmy, do you mind when I need to put in a CD for some music?" Libby asked.

"Don't be stupid, Libby!" Jimmy folded his arms. "We don't need that darn music."

"Nerdtron! Don't be rude to Libby!" Cindy sternly said. "She need some music, so say apologize to her!"

"Libby, I'm sorry when I was stressed," Jimmy admitted. "You can put in a CD now."

"Apology accepted," Libby rolled her eyes, then she went over to the ship's radio, put in a CD, and some pop music started playing. "Some music!"

Everyone was singing along, "We're teenagers in America! We're teenagers in America! Everybody lives for the music go-round!"

-In 10 minutes later-

Sheen and Nick started playing the Battleship board game while Carl and Britney played right the Llama's Day Out (from the episode: Hypno Birthday to You).

"Who wants to play?" Cindy asked as she brought the UNO Deluxe Playing Card Game.

"Yeah!" Libby and Gina happily said. "Uno!"

Cindy began to shuffle the deck and deal seven cards face down to each of her friends, and then she stacked right the remaining cards face down to form a Draw pile. She turned over the first card in the Draw pile to create a Discard pile. "Gina, here's the first..."

Team Neutron continuously played these board games (except Jimmy) for over 15 minutes until Jimmy turned to face his friends. "When we arrive at Pisces, we'll eat lunch. And then, we'll play golf or whatever."

"Yeah," Carl said. "Jimmy, Sheen, and I ordered the signature wraps from the Subway restaurant yesterday."

-In 63 minutes later-

The astro-car spaceship flew over a hundred miles after through the Oort Cloud, but it stopped right.

"Dude, what's the hell?!" Nick shocked.

"What's going on?" Britney raised her eyebrow.

All of a sudden, the whole ship began rumbling like an earthquake.

"Oh, dang!" Gina gasped.

"J-Jimmy?" Carl stuttered. "What's happening?"

"I don't know," Jimmy hesitated. "I think engine functions seem perfectly normal."

"Holy shoot!" Sheen rolled his eyes.

"I can't control the ship," Jimmy remarked after checking these controls and trying to use them, but that stuck them.

"Maybe that green tractor beam will explain everything," Britney said after watching through the window from the ship's roof in something.

"Say what?" asked the others.

Cindy looked up at the rooftop window and saw nothing. "Uh, Jimmy? Does a tractor beam come from nothing in the sky?"

"Nope," Jimmy gulped.

A tractor beam sucked Team Neutron and Astro-car right into the source, which revealed itself to be using a cloaking device and was a ship big enough to fit about nine of the spaceship in there. Team Neutron found themselves in the hallway of the giant starship.

"Leaping Leptons!" Jimmy shockingly said, then he saw the interior. "That tractor beam must've come from some sort of starship."

"What would they wanna with us?" Libby asked.

"I don't know, Libby," Jimmy hesitated. "However, we're going to have to stay close together."

Team Neutron carefully walked together while being led by Jimmy. Just then, a floating figure approached them.

"I'm so glad you scum earthlings could drop it," said the dark figure.

"Who are you?!" Jimmy shockingly yelled.

"Hello!" a floating figure evilly grinned. It was a former host of Intergalactic Showdown, the Malexvian Galaxy's most popular game show.

"Meldar Prime!" Jimmy gasped. "What do you want?"

"I'm happy you asked that," Meldar evilly said. "You and your jellybag friends shut down my system, ruined my game show, and permanently canceled my career when I was being forced to be victims of anguished objects in infomercials, courtesy of those disgusting brains. I've been preparing for months for my revenge after I escaped. Vandana, call robots to tie them!"

Vandana (an evil robot minion lady) arrived, holding Jimmy while those robots were holding the others gagged and hogtied. They were squirming and struggling.

"Let us go, freaky robots!" Nick yelled, struggling.

"Don't make me angry!" Cindy added.

"Neutron, I managed to sneak to Planet Gorlock and retrieve my matrix generations," Meldar sadistically grinned. "I also could regain my powers and take back my job from the Brains!"

"Forget it, tuxedo boy!" Jimmy shouted. "Please let my friends go."

"Atta boy," Meldar evilly grinned as he snapped his fingers.

Goddard growled and barked, then he tried attacking the robot, but a giant magnet came from the ceiling, attracting Goddard and taking him away.

"Goddard!" Jimmy gasped as his eyes started crying.

"Bark, bark!" Goddard hardly barked back.

"Goddard..." Jimmy tearfully watched right while his dog was removed from his eyesight.

"Vandana, put them all into a jail cell!" Meldar declared.

"Yes, sir!" Vandana agreeably said as she carried these human teenagers to some unknown place. They attempted to get free, but they couldn't; she was too strong for them. She and the other robots took Team Neutron to some sort of prison cell, which was big enough for all of them.

"Hey!" Nick shouted. "Put us down, you bucket of darn bolts lady!"

"I don't think so," Vandana rudely said. "Meldar already ordered me to lock you all in here."

Vandana threw these human teenagers right into the jail cell and landed right on each other.

"Ow!" Carl painfully whined. "My scapula!"

"Whatcha gonna do to us?!" Libby demanded.

"You jellybags will launch right into space to absorb a whole bunch of black holes, and your stupid robot dog will evaporate into scrap metal with a mechanical mongrel. You all can't do anything!" Meldar evilly grinned. "Furthermore, you'll never be trying to escape anywhere, and it resembles you're all despair now."

"What?!" Jimmy shockingly yelled. "Are you crazy?!"

"You heard me, scum earthling!" Meldar proclaimed. "Because you twerps destroyed everything!"

"Good-bye! Bye!" Meldar and Vandana began evilly laughing, then getting away.

"Dammit!" Jimmy retorted. "What have I done?"

"Oh, man! We're all screwing up!" Sheen mumbled as he fell onto the floor.

"I want to go home!" Carl shouted.

Team Neutron was sitting right in the prison cell, feeling hopeless. Cindy explained to Jimmy and Britney about their encounter with Meldar, the space rock, etc.

"Jimmy, what was Goddard doing?" Cindy wondered.

"We're supposed to rescue Goddard and get him out of here," Jimmy replied.

"It should've seen that coming," Cindy rolled her eyes.

"Cindy, are you still in love with Jimmy?" Britney asked.

"Hmm, just in a complicated," Cindy replied.

Sheen and Libby played a harmonica song after they found them on the floor.

"I know why the caged bird sings," Gina looked sad.

"The caged bird sings with a fearful warble of things unknown but longed for still, and his tune is heard on the faraway hill, for the caged bird sings of freedom," Britney sorrowfully replied. "Maya Angelou."

Cindy walked over to Gina, who resembled she was crying or something.

"Gina, are you okay?" Cindy asked as she put her hand on Gina's shoulder. "What's wrong?"

"Y-Yes, I'm okay," Gina sniffled. "I've missed Royce, but I don't want to worry about him. And I love him so much. He and his parents went to Fiji on vacation so that he would return home after New Year. I'm sure he will be great."

-In earlier nine days-

"I wanna tell you something. My parents and I will fly to Fiji tomorrow morning. For visiting my grandparents' house on vacation," Royce remarked. "Don't worry, princess; we'll return home after New Year. Unfortunately, I can't send you a text message due to being overseas, so I'm still thinking of you all the time."

"All right," Gina smiled. "I hope you guys have to enjoy taking a trip to Fiji."

"Yeah, thanks," Royce smiled as he waggled his eyebrows, and then he wrapped his arms around Gina in a warm and intimate hug for one and a half minutes. "My parents think you're a great person we've met. I love you so much, princess."

"Welcome! I love you too, honey," Gina snugly said after she hugged Royce back, her face blushing and feeling warm-hearted. "I realized you're such a wonderful guy I've ever seen. And my parents think you're amiable and funny."

"Yeah, I know," Royce smiled as he kissed Gina on the lips after letting the Korean girl go. "Bye, sweetie."

"Bye, Royce," Gina smiled after she kissed Royce back. "Have fun on vacation. I'll miss you..."

"I'll miss you too," Royce flirtatiously said, then he carried Gina in his arms, playfully spinning like a carousel ride.

-At present-

"Gina, I understand how you feel," Cindy said before facing her friends. "Guys, I guess we're really up the creek this time."

"Come on, everyone, don't feel so bad," Libby admitted as she stopped playing the harmonica for a minute. "Jimmy didn't mean to get us absorbed into space, nearly get a bunch of planets blown up, and then have us captured by one of our worst enemies."

"She's right," Carl said. "After all, what would Llama Boy do?"

"Well, let's think about that, Carl!" Sheen proclaimed as he approached Carl. "Maybe just SPIT ALL DAY?!"

"Calm down, Sheen!" Libby softly said. "Maybe he's onto something. Carl, what would Llama Boy do?"

Carl thought for a moment. "I... I DON'T KNOW!"

"Dammit, fat boy!" Sheen angrily yelled. "You are so stupid and pathetic!"

"Sheen, stop it!" Libby sternly said.

"Nuh-uh," Carl shook his head. "You're the pathetic one."

"Oh, really?" Sheen sarcastically said. "Oh, look at me! I'm Carl Wheezer! I can't play any sports because I'm hubby, have numerous medical problems, and am obsessed with stupid llamas! I always do repeatedly!"

"At least, sometimes I got bad grades, and I have a dad," Carl spat. "I kicked out of a basketball team!"

"That's it!" Sheen yelled as he threw a harmonica onto the floor, then brutality pushed Carl. "You want a piece of this, Wheezer?!"

"Bring it on, Estevez!" Carl shouted as he pushed Sheen back.

"Will you both stop fighting, please?!" Nick declared as he gently pushed Carl and Sheen, which quickly subsided. "Dudes, this isn't helping anything!"

"Let me at him, Nick!" Sheen angrily yelled. "I'm gonna show that darn llama-loving jerk what for!"

"Sheen, I think Nick's right," Libby said. "You need to stop it and be mature, y'know."

"Look, I'm mature enough!" Sheen proclaimed. "I'm not a crybaby! Carl is!"

"I'm not! You lied to me!" Carl shouted.

"THAT'S IT!" Sheen menacingly yelled, then he jumped right and started attacking Carl. "I'M GONNA FRICKING KILL YOU!"

Sheen and Carl were viciously fighting each other, so Nick kept attempting to break up the fight, but with no luck.

"Oh, my gosh...!" Gina shook her head. "Sheen is always getting into trouble in school."

"Yes, he got numerous times for lunch isolation this year," Cindy sarcastically said. "And he also got F-grades on his darn quizzes sometimes."

"Yeah, girl," Libby added. "He tends to cheat on their students while on the exams."

"You're getting big trouble, Ultra-freak!" Nick shouted.

"Carl! Sheen! Will you stop fighting over it?!" Jimmy shouted before turning to the outside of the jail cell. When that was occurring, some bashing and beating up took place. "Who's there?"

All of a sudden, the cell door thrashed open, and everybody stopped what they were doing. An enigmatic figure stood precisely where the door was.

"Stay calm, and don't panic," said the odd figure. "Don't worry, and I will get you all out of here."

"I know that voice...," Cindy said. "It can't be..."
