Neither can I!!!!! :kawaii: :wub: <3

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

Does she not know you're on this particular site? :unsure:

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

:lol:

[SweeneyxxTodd]

My parents don't know I'm on here.

Even if they did, they wouldn't really care. I can do pretty much whatever the heck I feel like doing on the net, as long as it's safe and appropriate.

Natalie know a good deal about this place. I tell her silly or awesome things that happen on here or to people on here, and she's come on a few times and has an account. And Carol knows it exists, but that's about it.

Sometimes I wonder what my parents would think if they knew I spent so much time on a JN fansite and that I considered you guys my real friends, even though I've never met you. They'd probably think there was something wrong with me.

But then I think about it more and realize I don't really care. Even if they knew I went on here, it wouldn't stop me from coming. lol.

This place rocks too much.

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

This place rocks too much.

Phsssshhhht, you GOT that right!!!! And THAT'S why I'm NEVER leaving!

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

DarkTeamRush1, don't you notice you got a PM??

[SweeneyxxTodd]

lol S'ok.

Spam happens. I'm sure Katie won't mind too much.

But *ahem* Yes. Season 4 is coming along great, wouldn't you say so? Can't wait for this obnoxiously long commercial break to be over.

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

My parents didn't know, either, at first. I kept getting on this site at my local Best Buy, & I only had an hour there on account of my bro's karate class not far off. But my mom eventually got curious, & I finally admitted that this site was what I went to at Best Buy. Turns out, she was okay with it, as long as I don't give away any personal info. Now, that I have a Mac in my room with Internet access, I'm on here whenever my schedule allows, which is from 4 to 6 pm on Sunday thru Friday, & as much as I want on Saturday!! Yay! That's how I was able to make up to 900 posts, & counting!!! Yay, again!!!!

Oops, I'm spamming on Katie's topic, like Athena was! *shuts up*

[RocksmySocks]

That was absolutely the most awesome thing I have read ever, besides TOSOT of course.

Katie, I can totally picture all of this happening in an episode.

It was very creative and flowed together nicely.

Awesome job, Katie, and I can't wait for part 2!

Wow, thanks, Gretchen! What a compliment! I'm...really flattered. Thank you.


And thanks for catching up, Mary! I'm glad you like it so far!


OKAY, commercial break is over! Thank you all for the wonderful comments. Without further ado, onto Part 2!




Cindyrella: Part Two

Jimmy found himself standing alone, in a bizarre set of very fancy clothes. “What? What is this?” the boy genius asked out loud, thoroughly confused.

He pulled on the velvety sleeves he was now donned in, and turned his left foot side to side in its new black boot. “It seems that these clothes are modeled after 19th century European royalty, but why in the world am I wearing them? And where is everyone?”

As if in answer, a light beamed down and Jimmy looked up in surprise. He stood in a grand hall, with great pillars and marble floors. The light lead to a table near the front of the hall, where a book lay, its pages opening like magic.

“Of course!” Jimmy exclaimed, approaching the book. “We’ve been put into a story! And it would seem the character I play is some sort of royalty.” He smirked to himself. “Now, to see what is going on with Carl, Sheen, and the girls…”

He flipped to the beginning of the book. “Once upon a time,” he began to read out loud, “There lived a young girl, whose evil stepmother treated her no better than a slave, forcing her to sleep in the soot of the fireplace. This led her stepsisters to give her the cruel nickname of Cin…” Jimmy’s voice trailed off, jaw dropping and eyes widening in panic as he stared at the book. The picture on the first page showed a familiar blonde girl dressed in rags and covered in ashes. Slowly, Jimmy looked down at his own princely attire, realization dawning on him.

The book fell from his hands onto the floor.

“NOOOOOOOOOOOO!”

* * * * *

The rest of the gang found themselves standing in a stone floor dining room. Cindy scowled, trying to brush the soot out of her torn clothes. “What is going on here? Why am I covered in filth?” she asked, angrily.

Libby raised an eyebrow and smirked, twirling her elaborate skirt. There was not a speck of dirt to be seen on the taller girl’s silken clothes. “I don’t know, girl, but I could definitely get used to these threads.”

“Haha, at least you guys don’t look as stupid as Carl!” Sheen laughed, pointing at the hefty boy. “He’s dressed like a GIRL!”

Carl’s face turned beet red as he put his hands on the hips of his yellow frilly dress. “Hey, I’m not the only one cross-dressed here, Sheen!” he accused.

Sheen blinked for a moment, processing that statement, and then looked down in horror. “AHHH!” he screamed, eyeing the lacey purple skirt billowing out from his thin waist.

“Okay guys, let’s chill,” Libby said. “There must be an explanation for this.”

Cindy crossed her arms, frustrated. “I just don’t see why I’m the only one here in the UGLY dress! Even Sheen’s looks better than mine!”

Sheen stopped his freaking out for a moment to blush and twirl his thumbs together. “You really think so?” he asked, coyly, rocking back on his feet. He then shook his head wildly, eyes widening. “AHH! No! I mean, dress bad! Boy clothes good!”

Suddenly, a computerized voice boomed out. “WARNING: STRAYING FROM PLOT. RESTART HAS BEEN INITIATED.”

“Now what in the world does that – ” Libby’s question got cut off as the four children were zapped out of the scene by the same rays of light they were zapped in with.

* * * * *

“OOF!” Carl landed on his rear, as everyone fell over each other back in the dark mysterious place they had earlier found themselves in.

Amidst a great deal of complaining as the gang untangled their limbs from one another’s, Jimmy’s voice broke through. “Guys! Calm down, I think I know what is going on here.”

“Hey, Jimmy’s with us again!” Carl smiled cheerfully.

“And I’m not wearing a dress!” Sheen exclaimed even more excitedly.

“Alright, Neutron, you have ten seconds to explain what just happened,” Cindy said, her eyes steely and her face set.

Jimmy winced. “Alright, alright, here’s the deal. You guys know how I mentioned that transdimensional atomic shift?” There were several blank stares. “Well, er,” Jimmy continued awkwardly, “Someone must have activated it, and now the Anticipatory Entertainer 4.0 has sucked us into the very story it was going to perform for you guys. To make a long story short, we now have to act out the story Cinderella.”

Sheen leapt back in alarm, crying out, “Nooo! Not Cinderella! We’re goners! The aliens of planet Crumbcake will be here any moment, ready to disembowel our souls and teach us to yodel!” He began to sob. “Oh please, say it isn’t so, Jimmy,” he begged, and then dropped his voice to a despaired whisper. “Say it isn’t so…”

Libby rolled her eyes. “Sheen, you’re thinking of Ultralord episode 227 again, aren’t you?”

Sheen blinked, halting his dramatic death sequence. “Oh yeah, I am! I always get those two mixed up.”

Cindy looked a little concerned and more than a little freaked out. “Libby…how did you know that?”

Libby’s eyes widened, but luckily Carl interrupted before she had to begin any explanation.

“So uh, Jim, why exactly were me and Sheen wearing dresses?”

Jimmy looked puzzled. “Well, uh…the A.E. 4.0 would have chosen your character based on your behavior, appearance, and chemical signals just prior to the atomic shift, so…”

“Oh, I get it,” Cindy said. “That’s why I was in rags. I’m Cinderella, because of all you crazies bossing me around back in the lab!”

“What are you talking about, girl?” Libby asked, putting her hands on her hips. “I was merely requesting your help in keeping those two under control,” she said defensively, jerking in a finger in the direction of Carl and Sheen.

Jimmy nodded analytically, tapping his chin with his forefinger. “So Libby, you must be playing the wicked stepmother.”

“I – what?!”

“And that would make…” Jimmy’s face broke into a huge, disbelieving grin, as he turned to his two friends. “You guys are the stepsisters?” He laughed.

“NO!” Carl denied loudly. “Well, maybe…” he added softly.

“I prefer to think of it as ‘Masculinely Challenged’,” Sheen said, buffing his nails up against his shirt.

Cindy suddenly got a huge smirk on her face. “So I guess that means Nerdtron over here must be playing the Fairy Godmother.”

Jimmy shuffled awkwardly, scratching the back of his head. “Uh, well, I think you’re forgetting a character, Cindy…”

Cindy paused, counting silently on her fingers, her eyes moving back and forth trying to figure out who Jimmy could be referencing. Once she realized who it had to be, her eyes bugged out. “Oh no. No way.”

Libby started giggling like crazy.

Sheen gasped. “Jimmy’s a CRUMBCAKIAN ALIEN?”

“No, Sheen…no.” Jimmy rolled his eyes. “I’m the Prince.”

Carl, deep in thought after this revelation, looked up suddenly. “So that means, at the end, you have to marry…Cindy?” A smile began to grow across the chubby boy’s cheeks.

“Okay, look, can we just not go there for a second?” Jimmy asked, irritated.

“Psh, yeah, like I’d ever marry – ”

“Vortex, not now,” Jimmy interrupted. “Right now, we need to figure out a way out of here.”

Cindy crossed her arms angrily. “Of course, your Highness.”

“Alright listen, this whole situation was not supposed to happen yet. Transdimensionalized atomic shifts can sometimes be irreversible, and without having tested its effects on any mammalian species, there is no telling how possible it is for us to actually get back to our dimension,” Jimmy explained, uneasily.

“Well, aren’t you just a little ray of sunshine,” Cindy commented.

“BUT,” he continued, glaring in her direction, “My best hypothesis would be that the program is looking for us to complete the story it has assigned us. Upon reaching ‘The End’, we should be released back into our own universe, no damage done.”

“Uh, hold up there Jimmy. What do you mean by ‘should’?” Libby asked, tapping her fingers together nervously.

“And ‘best hypothesis’?” Cindy added, putting her hands on her hips.

Jimmy rolled his head back in exasperation. “Leaping Leptons, guys, I don’t hear any of YOU coming up with a better plan.”

There was some begrudgingly accepting silence.

“Okay. Now, we all know what happens if we get out of character. That ‘straying from plot’ message booms, and we get sent back here. So please, as hard as I know it will be, just try to stay in character and stick to the storyline?” Jimmy pleaded. “It’s our best chance for getting out of here.”

There was a round of agreement.

“Alright, let’s just get this over with,” Cindy said, eyes set and voice void of any excitement.

The five kids walked toward the pinprick of light once again, and just like before, were each promptly zapped away.

* * * * *

Four of the five members of the gang found themselves back in the story, seated around a wooden table with early morning sunlight shining through the windows. There was an awkward silence, no one particularly sure what to do first.

After a few moments, Libby spoke up. “Cinderella, bring me my breakfast,” she said, in an attempt to get the story going.

“Yes, Stepmother,” Cindy replied, doing her best not to growl the words out.

“Ooo! Ooo! And my Ultralord Season Six Special Edition DVD Box Set!”

Carl, Libby, and Cindy turned to glare at the boy in the purple dress. “SHEEN!”

“WARNING: STRAYING FROM – ”

“Waaaait!” Sheen shouted, throwing his hands out as if to stop the computer. “I mean…! I mean… my pretty… girly… make-up… pink fluffy …stuff!” he quickly amended. Everyone sighed in relief as the Warning Voice died down.

Cindy tucked a loose strand of soot covered hair behind her ear. “Of course, dear Stepsister,” she said, heading out to find their demands.

“And my llama pillow!” Carl shouted after her pleasantly.

“WARNING: NO LLAMAS IN THIS KINGDOM. RESTART INITIATED.”

There was a sudden poof and they all found themselves back in the dark again, this time shouting at Carl.

“Sorry!” the hefty boy cringed, shielding his face from his friends.

Sighing, they all stepped forward again and got zapped away.

* * * * * *

The cycle continued for quite some time. The gang would make it partway through the plot, and then Sheen or Carl would say something to land them straight back at the beginning. After the sixteenth restart, Cindy was just about foaming at the mouth.

“CARL! FOR THE LAST TIME! YOU’RE AN EVIL STEPSISTER! STOP TRYING TO BRAID MY HAIR!”

Sheen laughed at the screaming fest, eager to join in. “Yeah, Carl! Stop – ”

Cindy spun, absolutely livid. “And don’t even get me STARTED on you, UltraDork. If you quote one more line from that stupid TV show of yours –”

“Whoa, whoa!” Libby stepped forward, arms outstretched. “Calm down, girl! Let’s just all try again and –”

“Try again?” Cindy seethed. “Do you know how many times you’ve said that now?”

“Okay,” Jimmy cut in, eyes shut as if trying hard to keep emotions reigned in. “Carl, Sheen, you two are my best friends, but if you don’t at least try to stay in character, we’re never going to get through this. Please. Just…say your lines and we’ll get out of here,” he pleaded.

“Yes, thank you, exactly Jimmy,” Cindy agreed, shooting a glare at Sheen, who was currently trying to balance Carl’s inhaler on his nose.

Libby’s eyes narrowed, and she tweaked an eyebrow all-too-knowingly. “Jimmy?” she mouthed at Cindy, putting a hand on her hip.

“Libby, not now,” Cindy said, a pained expression crossing her face.

“Alright, so everyone promise to try better?” Jimmy asked, staring pointedly at Carl and Sheen. He had apparently missed the exchange between the girls.

Carl shot Jimmy an “okay” sign from atop Sheen’s shoulders where he was trying to snatch his inhaler back from the older boy’s raised hand. “You got it, Jim!” he said, struggling to reach Sheen’s fingertips.

“Yep! No problemo, Cap’n!” Sheen wheezed, his voice strained from supporting Carl’s weight.

Moments later they were all zapped away, for what was hopefully the last time.

* * * * *

Images of the gang enacting their roles flash across the screen as Goddard entered the lab, looking around presumably for his master. He let out a shocked bark upon spotting the A.E. 4.0 up and running. Immediately he ran over to the machine, sniffing the sensor and whining.

Sitting down in front of it, Goddard’s neutronian cranium churned even faster than usual and his bright eyes stared at the scene in front of him. He watched as the story ticked by, cataloging each event on his green notepad screen on his chest.

Cindy scrubbing floors.

Libby yelling at Cindy.

Sheen and Carl chasing each other wearing frocks.

Breakfast spilling.

Cindy cleaning.

The list scrolled by faster and faster. Eventually, they reached:

Messenger arriving bearing royal invitation.

* * * * *

“Oh! Oh! We got a special scroll-y message!” Sheen shouted, racing in clutching the royal invitation and tripping over his skirt in the process.

Carl snatched it from him, his beady eyes skimming over the letter. “We get to go to a baaaall!” he said, a dreamy look materializing on his face. “Oh no!” he gasped, “I have nothing to wear!”

Libby calmly took the letter from her two ‘girls’, glossing over it. “Yes,” she nodded, “Tonight, a ball will be held in the Prince’s honor. Every eligible maiden is to attend.”

Sheen and Carl bounced excitedly, while Cindy rolled her eyes behind their backs.

“I don’t suppose that includes me?” the blonde girl asked, keeping up with her part.

Sheen and Carl laughed mockingly. “Yeah RIGHT!” Sheen said gleefully. “Like you could ever compete with us as a maiden worthy of royalty.” The two boys snickered at her misfortune, the irony of the situation completely lost on them.

“We’re gonna go meet the Prince! Maybe he’ll ask us to dance!” Carl hopped back and forth, a bundle of nervous energy.

Cindy sighed. “I’ll get your gowns ready then, shall I?”

“Yes, you do that,” Libby agreed, shooing her on her way.

* * * * *

Goddard sat, loyally continuing to track what was going on with the humans he cared for.

Cindy poofing up sleeves of three gowns.

Cindy giving gowns to Libby, Sheen, and Carl.

Libby, Sheen, and Carl preparing for ball.

Cindy asking permission to accompany them.

Libby, Sheen, and Carl laughing at Cindy.

Cindy looking sad.

Libby, Sheen, and Carl leaving.

Cindy searching around closets, looking for something.

Still searching.

Still searching.

Goddard extended his neck forward and nosed the monitor of the A.E. 4.0. He whined, watching his friends trapped in his master’s new invention, unable to escape. For some reason, the story had stalled. Something was missing.

Cindy waiting impatiently.

Cindy calling for help.

Suddenly, a light bulb lit up above Goddard’s head. Literally. Goddard leapt up in excitement, and reached upwards to the top of the machine.

Hero music played from Goddard’s speakers as he pressed the bright yellow button, and Goddard found himself surrounded by a sudden wind.

A moment later, the transdimensionalizer sucked him in, and the lab was once again empty.

On the screen of the A.E. 4.0, a very surprised Cindy jumped backwards.
