Crouching Jimmy, Hidden Cindy

The Prologue:

Over the peaceful Shangri-Lama, the moon hangs on its cord in the starry midnight sky.

A figure in black jumps on a roof, silhouetted by the bright moon.

With the speed of a cheetah and the cunning of a fox, the figure speeds across the night like a spear.

Then below, voices ring out...

He's escaped!

Quick, find him!

He must not escape!

But it was too late...

Jumping from the outer wall, he quickly sped from Shangri-Lama until a helicopter came down.

There he is!! Get him!

He grabbed the ladder and was pulled onto the helicopter as it flew away.

As the figure unclothed his black suit, his phone rang.

"Ugh! Now what! Who would be calling me while I am removing my black clothes which I used to escape!" His boast sounded rather quick and fragmented.

"What! Why you call me while I am removing my garments I used to escape... Oh!"

His voice changed from angry to interested.

"So you've found him! Good! Fill me in while I come up with a cunning plan which will be cunning!"

He tucks his phone away along with his cast-off black suit, sporting a yellow ninja uniform and headband, he takes out a picture of a boy with his leg behind his head.

"Soon, Chosen One, soon.. you will pay."

His evil laughter echoed as the helicopter flew away into the night...

WOW!!!

Thanks so much guys. I REALLY didn't expect this much positive reception, especally Yoo Yee's character. I really thought I butchered his character, but you guys made me think otherwise. Although I think some can do his character better. -_-

Really, thanks so much for your positive feedback. ^_^

Now.. what you've all been waiting for...

Part 1 - The Capture

The bright, shining hot sun hangs over the City of Retroville as summer fully blooms. The kids are out of school and enjoying the free summer air and the freedom from mind-numbing dreaded school work, likewise their teachers who raced out of school just as fast to get away from their little, misbehaving, lazy school kids.

And no one seemed to enjoy his summer more than the Chosen One himself.

"Guys, guys, guys!"

A manic preteen came running towards his two friends, Jimmy Neutron and Carl Wheezer, who stood outside Retroville Park.

"Guess what I got!"

"Let me guess," Jimmy asked, "another new Ultralord action figure?"

"Man, how can you guys-"

"Believe me Sheen," interrupted Jimmy, "I think I've seen enough Ultralord dolls to know their yours."

"HEY!," answered Sheen offended, "They're not dolls, they're one of a kind action figure collectables!"

"Well, should've known," he said, rolling his eyes.

"What about Carl's lama doll collection? You never make fun of that!"

"Hey! Stop picking on my toys," Carl defended.

"Alright Mr. 'Oh look at me, I'm Carl and I play with lamas dolls, yadda, yadda, yadda!'"

"Don't even!"

The two pointlessly argued until Libby comes walking by.

"Hey guys."

"Hey Libby," the three gave their salutations.

"What ya guys doin'?," asked Libby.

"Well, I was about to dropkick Carl," Sheen answered

"And I was about to slap Sheen in the face," Carl answered back

"Hey! If anyone's doin' the slappin' around here, it's me! Got it?"

"Got it," Sheen and Carl apologized.

"Uh, Libby, where's Cindy?"

"She's getting ready to leave with her Karate class to a field trip."

"Really? Where's she going?," Jimmy asked

"Some place in the mountains. Anyways I was gonna go visit her house. She leaves in two days. Maybe you guys like to come along?"

"Whatever, Libs. But..."

Sheen scooted right next to her like a filrtious fox.

"You, my dear, are coming with me."

"Sheen, I love you but can ya please stop hugging me?"

"What about you Jim? You gonna come too?," Carl asked.

"Meh, why not?," Jimmy answered, "It's not like anything bad is gonna happen."

"Does that explain that helecopter in the sky?"

Sheen was right. Above a black helicopter flew overhead the kids as ninjas then jumped down in front of them.

"Hey, it's those ninja dudes," Sheen retorted.

Suddenly an weird but evil laugh came out of nowhere.

"That laugh. I know that laugh. It's... It's..."

The boy ninja came down in front of the gang.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha! So Chosen One, we meet again!", Yoo Yee declared.

"Oh no! NINJA!!," Carl scremed in terror.

"Stand back guys," Sheen heroicaly steps foward, "This guy's getting Ultra-whipped".

"Ah-ha! I'd be knowing you'd try a stupid, silly manuver like that which is silly and full of stupidity!"

"Huh?"

"Take THIS!"

Suddenly from his hand he takes out what looked like a gold, circle pendant, which glowed an erie bright yellow.

Sheen, Carl and Libby then froze in thier tracks and became paralyzed.

"Oh no! Guys!!!," Jimmy cried.

"Goddard..."

Before Jimmy could finish his command, from out of nowhere Yoo Yee's ninja's appeared, place small electrical charges and short-circutes Goddard, rendering him immoble.

"No! Goddard!"

"Ha, ha, ha!" Yoo Yee laughed.

"I'll show you!" Jimmy aimed his wacth but then the next second, Yoo Yee appeares right in front of him to Jimmy's great shock. In a flash of a second, Jimmy is down on the ground, dropping his wacth on the floor.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha!! You think you're dog and gadgets can stop us great and powerful fighters? HA! You make me sick like my grandma's bad chicken soup which taste like dirt!"

Jimmy tries reaching for his watch, but is crushed by Yoo Yee's foot.

His anger raised.

"Why you!"

He pointlessly charges for Yoo Yee, but is then stopped by his ninja's and beaten to a pulp.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Now the shoe's foot is on the other end big-headed one with big hair."

The ninja's capture the frozen Sheen, Carl and Libby and take them to the helecopter, with Yoo Yee getting on.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Face it, small legged one, you'll NEVER defeat me! Not with your sciency gadgets nor with your poor fighting skills that wrench like grandma's toenail! NOTHING!!!"

With that, his laughter and his friends fly away into the unknown sky.

The beatened Jimmy staggered to his feet.

"Gotta go to the lab and find their location"

Just as he turned around, standing in front of him, sporting a white karate uniform with a pink undershirt, pink belt and bare feet, Cindy stood shocked.

Excellent introduction! You've woven a lovely tapestry of imagery ^_^
A few pointers, as per usual.

On the midnight starry night like a light bulb, the moon hangs on its cord…


The phrase "the moon hangs on its cord" is superb (I had a jaw-drop moment because it was so stunningly poetic), but the simile "like a light bulb" is clunky and just detracts from the impact of the words that follow. Also, the proximity of the night in midnight to the actual word night is a bit too close for comfort. Maybe something like "The moon hangs on its cord in the starry midnight sky."

the figure speeds across the night like a spear.


Interesting. I hadn't thought of that comparison.

As the figure unclothes his black suit, his phone rings.


You changed tenses here. It should be "As the figure unclothed [removed?] his black suit, his phone rang. (I don't think you can "unclothe" a garment - you can only unclothe in general. Really, you're better off using unclothed as an adjective. Pick a new verb to describe the removal of his clothes :bock:).

“Ugh! Now what! Who would be calling me while I am removing my black clothes which I used to escape!”


LOL! Classic Yoo Yee. I love it.

His voice changed from anger to interest


This sounds find the way it is, but I believe the proper sentence would be "His voice changed from angry to interested."

Putting his phone away and his black suit off, wearing a yellow ninja uniform and headband,


Nuh-uh. Too scrambled. Maybe "He tucks his phone away along with his cast-off black suit"...then go on to describe his new outfit.

His evil laughter echoed as the helecopter flies away into the night…


Mixing tenses again. It should be "His evil laughter echoed as the helicopter flew away into the night...



Anyway, lovely intro. Don't be discouraged by my edits; as usual I'm a tough grader ;)

@Katie: Wow. Thanks so much Rat Lady! :lol:

Yeah, I guess so. I'm used to her hard critiquing. She reminds me of my many English teachers all rolled into one extremley gifted and extrordinary girl! :thumbsup:

Also, the proximity of the night in midnight to the actual word night is a bit too close for comfort. Maybe something like "The moon hangs on its cord in the starry midnight sky."


Hmm... yeah, having that fragment does seem silly. Thanks for pointing that out

Interesting. I hadn't thought of that comparison.


:lol: Thank you.

You changed tenses here. It should be "As the figure unclothed [removed?] his black suit, his phone rang. (I don't think you can "unclothe" a garment - you can only unclothe in general. Really, you're better off using unclothed as an adjective. Pick a new verb to describe the removal of his clothes :bock:).


Yup. My sentense past/present tenses need work. -_- Thanks anyway.

LOL! Classic Yoo Yee. I love it.


^_^

Oh. Right.

Nuh-uh. Too scrambled. Maybe "He tucks his phone away along with his cast-off black suit"...then go on to describe his new outfit.


Another weakness of mines: I had trouble describing his clothes because I don't know what each part of them are called. I REALLY need to read ALOT more. -_-

Mixing tenses again. It should be "His evil laughter echoed as the helicopter flew away into the night...


-nods in agreement-

Anyway, lovely intro. Don't be discouraged by my edits; as usual I'm a tough grader ;)


Thanks alot Mara. My answer is the same as in my response to Katie above. ^_^ I'll try not to.

My major curiosity when I first met you: How and why did you make such a cute-looking self-made singnture of your name? :lol:

P.S. - For those wacthing from the online list, sorry if I took so long. -_-

P.S.S. - LONG, Isn't it? :lol:

My major curiosity when I first met you: How and why did you make such a cute-looking self-made singnture of your name? :lol:

Well, back when I was on the JN forums on nick.com, there used to be this little cat emoticon. I thought it was the cutest thing ever, and every time I signed my name, I'd put the kitty next to it.

When I left nick.com, I wanted to carry that tradition with me, but I wasn't entirely sure how. Luckily, my best friend Emma came to the rescue and showed me how to make a cat out using the keys on my keyboard.

However, " ~Mara = ^.^= " looked incomplete somehow, so I added in some more ~'s and *'s to give it that final flourish ;)


P.S.S. - LONG, Isn't it? :lol:

That is most definitely what she said.
