~Crys~

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

THIRD??! I think you mean second, cuz it's just Emerging- Oh, right. *facepalm* Sorry, I just can't think of any other interesting plotlines that DON'T involve violence(gory), gore, bloodshed of ANY kind, murder, animal cruelty, horror, or death. Blame me if you want, but if you want to stop reading it, I understand. PLZ try to understand. My mind is a corrupted place; I'm not sure how to replace that stuff with good stuff. PLZ, NO angry mobs!!!!

Here's a LOOOOOONNNG-awaited update of this fic! Enjoy it!


Emerging Compassions

Chapter 12: Drawing Conclusions
(Cindy's POV)


“So, what are ya saying, Neutron??” I wanted to know, annoyed.

“Do you 2 not see what's displayed upon VOX's screen?!” he snapped, gesturing towards the screen behind him, “You're each harboring a future generation in the making!”

Libs and I both looked at the screen and gasped; we saw that the scans Jimmy had made on us revealed that there was a developing child within both of us! Luckily, this was happening when I was 17 and Libby was 18, so we were more prepared to have a child than we would be if we were 14 or even younger!

After I regained my composure a few minutes later, I demanded of him, “C'mon, there's gotta be SOME explanation for these unexpected pregnancies of ours, Neutron!”

“Okay, okay!” Jimmy gave in, “We should probably take a recap of what's happened in the past 6 months, starting with the Jet Fusion rescue mission and what happened before we met Commander Baker.”

“You're right, Nerd-tron,” I noted, “Remember, we'd landed on that island we were stranded on when you and I were only 11, and we'd started to explore and search for food while I'd lagged behind you guys. Then I suddenly fell into a hole, and halfway down, I felt a strange, uncomfortable breeze on the lower half of my body, then landed in a very dark room padded with pillows. I'd landed on my stomach, but I found that uncomfortable, so I turned over to be on my back.”

“Oh, yeah!” he recalled, “I remember that happening to me, too! And I think I remember landing on top of someone while on my stomach...”

“That was me you landed on, Freak Brain,” I informed him firmly.

“I figured that... Don't you remember that strange sensation right after we'd landed on eachother? It only lasted a few seconds, but I think that was enough for you to conceive. That was when you pushed me off, then moved out of the way as Sheen, Libby, and Carl joined us. I couldn't see even the hands in front of my face, but I could tell by my hearing that the same thing must've happened to Sheen and Libby.”

“Oh, yeah! I remember that!” Sheen pointed out, “I immediately started to enjoy myself, but Libby pushed me off of her. Then we moved out of the way as Carl landed in that dark room with us, then Goddard followed.”

“That must've been when I conceived, too,” Libby recalled, “Then Commander Baker spoke up.”

I just chuckled to myself as I remembered the look on Jimmy's face when he found out he wasn't wearing anything from the waist down except for shoes. Then I couldn't hold it in anymore, because I burst out laughing like crazy.

“Oh, you think that's pretty funny, don't you, Dork-tex?!” Jimmy snarled, marching right up to me.

“Uh, YEAH!!” I told him, mimicking his facial expression from 6 months ago.

Then he too started laughing to himself, trying to hide it from me, as I'm sure he was realizing how ridiculous he must've looked with that expression on his face. A few moments later, he also burst out into hysterical laughter, I soon joining him almost immediately.

But our enjoyment was short-lived, because an alarm resounded on his main computer screen, clearly signifying trouble in Retroville.

He regained his composure quickly and groaned, slapping his forehead, taking a seat in front of VOX, and typing furiously, “What's the problem NOW??!”

A few minutes later, something appeared on his screen that turned his frustration into fear in a split second...

[Zoey <3]

The bright green hurts me eyes! besides that, this was a good chapter. update soon!

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

Here's Chapter 13!! Enjoy!!


Emerging Compassions

Chapter 13: Trouble In Our Midst...
(Libby's POV)


I saw that shocked look on Neutron's face and asked, “What's so shocking, Neutron??”

After typing a few more moments, Jimmy fearfully replied, “Calamitous and Gorgeous have escaped from jail!! There's no telling what havoc they're capable of wreaking on the entirety of Retroville, and eventually, the world!! We need to find out where they are and discover what sort of plot they're planning to unfold in the near future! Let's go!!”

Sheen, being the immature guy that he was, even though just a BIT more mature than at age 12, excitedly proclaimed, “To the rocket!!!”

Somethin' tells me we shoulda found out what their plan was before we started to actually search fo' 'em..., I thought begrudgingly to myself as we climbed into his rocket and blasted off. It wasn't long before we began our search for them, starting in the closest place they could be: in suburban Retroville.

We all got out of the rocket and Cindy asked, “Now what should we do, Neutron??”

“We should try to find a way in...,” he told us thoughtfully, looking around some for a few moments to search for a panel or pressure plate that could let us in somehow.

“Who knows? We COULD be here awhile...,” Sheen muttered, still having the same short attention span as he did in the past.

Then he apparently saw something, because he instructed, “Watch this!” He pressed the unobvious pressure plate on the wall of the house and an automatic door opened up in the ground next to the house that led via a diagonal, metal passage to the interior of the lair.

“This looks like fun!! BANZAI!!!” Sheen immediately hollered as he slid down the passage into the lair. Once there, he hollered again, “C'mon, guys!! Whatcha waitin' for??”

Jimmy just shrugged and muttered, “Ah, what the heck??” Then he slid down shortly after Sheen did, exclaiming, “Yaa-HOOO!!!”

“I'm next!” Cindy said, and slid down after him, shouting, “WHEEEE!!!”

“Right behind ya!” I yelled excitedly, and slid down, too, yelling out of pleasure, “Waaa-HOOO!!!”

“Wait for me!” Carl hollered, and was the last to slide down the passage.

Once we all got to our feet, I asked, “See anything, Neutron?”

“Nothing aside from his numerous old inventions,” he observed.

“Wow, they must be somewhere else, then,” I heard Cindy mutter. Then she started giggling a bit, saying, motioning for Jimmy to approach her and one of her hands on her slightly protruding stomach, “Hee, hee!! I feel movement!”

“What is it, Vortex?” Jimmy began to ask, then exclaimed, placing his hand on her stomach with her permission, “He or she's moving?? Wow!”

“Yep, that's the miracle of life for ya right there! That's our child, Neutron! Isn't it exciting??” she informed him excitedly.

“Yes, it is! I guess the most embarrassing accidents turn out to be the greatest blessings in life!” he told her gladly.

“Yes, I agree,” I put in, feeling movement in my stomach, as well, “It IS a wonderful gift, but we need to focus on why we originally came here.”

“Libby brings up a good point,” Jimmy added firmly, “We need to find out where Calamitous and Gorgeous are hiding, and they're not here, so let's get going!” With that, he pressed a button on his watch and we were all teleported back to his rocket. We all got in and blasted off again.

While on our way to our next destination, Cindy suggested, “Couldn't you use your radar screen to search for them so we'd find them quicker, Neutron??”

“Great idea, Cindy! I don't know WHY this didn't occur to me before,” Jimmy complimented her, then used his radar screen to do just that.

Then he muttered, “Just as I thought!!”

“Where are they, Jim?” Carl wanted to know.

“Just where they were 6 years ago when we had to rescue Jet Fusion: the Himalayas of Asia!” Jimmy informed us.

“They're with a bunch of Asian cats?!” Sheen guessed dim-wittedly.

“No, Ultra-DORK!!” Cindy snapped, “The largest mountain range in the world, where Mount Everest is!!”

“Sheen,” I told him firmly, “Just shut up, okay??”

“Sorry,” he said as we closed in on the Himalayas...

[CjIiNmDmYy]

I really like this chapter, Em! BTW, sorry for not replying...

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

I'm currently working on Chapter 15, so I'll go ahead and post this one. Enjoy!


Emerging Compassions

Chapter 14: The Journey Eastward
(Sheen's POV)


As we traveled east towards, whatever that place is called, I got insanely bored, even at age 18. “DANG IT!!” I complained after 30 minutes had gone by, “How much LONGER?!!”

“For the last time, Ultra-Dork, SHUT UP!!” Cindy snapped at me, then muttered, “Dang, I'm sure craving some pickles and ice cream...”

That sounded disgusting even to me, who absolutely loved ice cream, and informed her, “Okay, that's nasty!”

“Deal with it, ya moron...,” she sharply told me.

“That's quite enough outta you 2, Sheen, Vortex...,” Jimmy scolded us while keeping his focus on what was directly in front of him.

“Sorry, Jimmy./Whatever, Neutron...,” we told him in unison.

Then Libby said, covering her mouth, “I think some of that nausea is still hangin' on from the first trimester...” Then she leaned over the side of the rocket to her right and barfed, again.

“Yeah, I noticed,” Carl put in, looking behind him at her.

Cindy looked to her right and asked her, “Are you okay, Libs??”

“Yeah, I think so...,” she managed to say when she was finished.

After yet another 5 minutes had passed, I was STILL bored to the extreme! So I griped, “GAH!!! I am SSSOOOO bored!!! Jeez!!” Then I looked over to my right at Carl and saw that the dude had fell asleep, snoring loudly. Then, another 10 minutes later, I found my boredom too much for me, so I fell asleep right then on the spot.

We both woke up suddenly when something large hit the rocket from out of nowhere!

“Jimmy, what's HAPPENING?!!” Carl shrieked as the rocket began to shake uncontrollably.

“That missile has been following us ever since we began to pass over the Himalayas! I've been trying to avoid it, but it kept following us for the past 2 hours! Now we're out of fuel, and it's finally hit us! Hang on as we plummet into the Indonesian rainforest!!” Jimmy exclaimed fearfully, trying to steer his rocket into a clearing so it wouldn't get too damaged by the landing.

We hit the rainforest floor some 20 seconds later.

As we crawled out, he wanted to know, “Is everybody okay?!”

“Ow, my scapula!!” Carl moaned, rubbing his back.

“I think so, Neutron...,” Cindy muttered, looking over at Libby as she crawled away from the rocket, “You okay, Libby??”

Rising to her feet, she responded, “Yeah, I'm fine, Cin.”

“I'm fine, in case anyone was wondering!!” I snapped, my arms folded after I'd risen to my feet.

“Are you okay, Sheen?!” Libby asked me worriedly.

“I just said I was fine, Libby-licious!” I informed her.

“Don't call me that!” she hissed.

“Sorry,” I muttered under my breath.

“Hey, I was just kiddin'! Sheen, you can call me whatever ya like, cuz we're together as a couple!” Libby teased me, nudging me playfully.

“Oh, yeah!” I realized, then wanted to know, “I forget. Are you and Cindy a couple yet, Jimmy?”

“Uuuhh... Heh-heh, um, NO!!” he replied hesitantly, laughing nervously.

“Um, yeah! What he said!” Cindy put in supportively, though hesitantly.

“Hmmmm... Somethin' tells me you ARE...,” I told them, a suspicious look on my face.

“I think he's right, you 2,” Libby said, looking at both Jimmy and Cindy and glaring at them.

“If you aren't a couple, then why are you always flirting with eachother, writing eachother love notes, sitting together at lunch, constantly texting or calling eachother, and making out when you're alone?” Carl asked suspiciously.

“I guess we've been found out, Cin,” Jimmy informed her, blushing deeply.

“So much for hiding it!” Cindy admitted with a sigh.

It looked like Libby had some sense, cuz she reminded us, “Are y'all forgettin' where we've landed?!”

Quickly getting to his senses, he cleared his throat and announced, “I'd better check the rocket for damage. We could be here a while if it's bad...” He then checked it for any damage. He apparently came upon some major damage, cuz he told us, “When the missile hit my rocket, it sustained major damage to its exterior and some of its interior. It looks like we're stranded here until I can find a way to fix that and find some alternative fuel that'll get us to the Himalayas, then later to back to Retroville.”

Boy, were we in for a big adventure there or what!!

[Zoey <3]

Aww cute Chapeter!

[CjIiNmDmYy]

Cool, cute, craving for the next chapter. The three 'C's.

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

Enough fooling around! Here's Chapter 15!!


Emerging Compassions

Chapter 15: Trying To Survive the Jungle
(Carl's POV)


“Oh, GREAT!!” Cindy groaned, “If I'm not back by 5pm, my mom is gonna KILL me!!!”

“What is it, Cin?” Libby wanted to know.

“Ugh... I'm gonna miss my piano recital if I don't make it back home by 5!!” she snapped, utterly annoyed with herself.

“Cindy,” Jimmy firmly told her, “Our only transportation is heavily damaged, and we're halfway around the world, 12 time zones ahead. We may never get back if we don't act now!”

“So, what are we supposed to do, Jimmy??” I asked him nervously.

Ever the impatient guy, Sheen interrupted by saying, “We should get on the monkeys' good side so the monkey god will be pleased and help us get back!”

“Oh, PLEASE!! What good is that gonna do, Ultra-Freak?! There's no such thing in the first place!!!” Cindy barked at him, highly annoyed with him.

As if on cue, Sheen started acting all monkey-like, screeching like crazy while trying to get their attention and dancing funny.

“Libs, control your boyfriend, PLEASE!!” she urged her friend.

Libby walked up to him and grabbed his wrist while saying sternly, “Sheen, would ya knock it off, please?!”

“Sorry,” he muttered under his breath.

“That was creeping me out, anyway, Sheen,” I put in, my arms folded.

“Guys, focus!!” Jimmy urgently informed us, “While we're here, we might as well set up camp. I can tell we're gonna be here for quite a while.” With that, he pulled out his hypercube-thing and pressed a button on it, sending out a bunch of camping stuff, food, and extra clothes. Then he added, “Always be prepared for any eventuality!”

“Let's just hope the monkeys don't get our food, Neutron,” Libby said, a worried look on her face.

“Don't worry! I've coated with an edible spray that we like and we can eat but the native fauna won't be able to and will hate it from the start. And no, Carl, it's nothing you're allergic to,” Jimmy additionally told us.

“Whew!” I breathed with a sigh of relief, wiping my brow.

“Besides, if they DO try to get it, Goddard will scare them off!” he said.

“That's great an' all, Neutron, but it is SO humid here, and it's not doin' my skin any favors! I feel like I need to to go take a dip somewhere...,” Libby sighed, wiping her forehead with the back of her hand and looking around.

“Wait a minute! Is that a waterfall somewhere nearby, Jimmy?!” Cindy gasped, putting a hand to her ear.

After listening himself for a few moments, he exclaimed, “Leapin' leptons, it IS a waterfall, and where there's a waterfall, there's bound to be a lake underneath it! C'mon, guys!!” He then led us, following the sound, to where the water source originated, just several hundred feet away from camp.

Then Cindy protested once we were there, “Um, what exactly are we supposed to wear?!! None of us brought swimsuits!”

“NO problem!!!” Sheen proclaimed excitedly, and ran behind some shrubs and trees nearby. We heard some rapid rustling in the brush, then saw him run up an inclined rock that jutted out a few feet over the lake, and he yelled, jumping into the lake in a “cannonball”, “BANZAI!!!!!!!!!”

The splash from his dive got all of us soaked to the quick, triggering Cindy to holler angrily at him, “Hey, WATCH it, Ultra-DORK!! We're soaking WET!!!”

“Then ya might as well come in! Besides, it's really hot and humid out, so let's take a refreshing dip, shall we??” he yelled back at her after he'd resurfaced.

“Sheen, are you NUTS?! No! Are ya even wearing anything?!” Jimmy shouted at him.

“No,” he replied, “Just c'mon already! Or are you guys just 'chicken'?? Bawk, bawk, bawk, buck-awk!!”

“Grrrrr!!!! I'll show YOU I'm not 'chicken'!!!” Cindy growled furiously, and did exactly as Sheen did a few minutes before, making a large splash, as well.

“Girl, you're crazy!!!” Libby shouted at her, then thought to herself some. Then she shrugged and muttered, “Ah, what the heck? Hold on! I'll be in in a minute!” A few minutes later, she too jumped off of the rock and into the water with Sheen and Cindy.

“Wait for me!” I hollered, and mimicked the others' actions several minutes before. Then I ran breathlessly and jumped off the rock into the lake, as well. After I resurfaced, I muttered, “Ow, my scapula...”

We looked to the shore again and saw that Jimmy was by himself, fanning himself with Goddard's assistance. Then I called after him, “Aren't ya coming, Jim??”

“If you think I'm insane enough to perform such an inane stunt-,” he started to snap, but only to have Cindy playfully snap back at him, “Jeez, Neutron, are you gonna do it or are ya just gonna be 'chicken' about it?!” She then proceeded to make squawking noises about the whole matter.

I could tell that made him pretty annoyed, because he firmly responded, “Okay, okay, ENOUGH of that! Fine, I'll do it!!” Then he walked into the brush and came running out in the buff a few minutes later and jumped into the lake with us.

After he'd surfaced, Sheen asked us, “Now, doesn't this feel refreshing compared to the hot, hot air???”

“Yes, it does, but if my mom knew I was skinny-dipping with boys my age, she'd have a FIT!” Cindy put in. I could tell she was kinda nervous when she said that.

“I do admit; this IS rather refreshing, but we need to focus on what we need to do here. There's no telling what Calamitous and Gorgeous are up to by now...,” Jimmy informed us firmly.

“Well, Cindy's the one who brought it up,” Sheen told us, trying to be helpful, “The lake, that is.”

“Wha-?!” she started to hiss at him, then admitted, “That is true...”

“Yeah,” Libby agreed.

Then, suddenly, some screeching was heard from a short distance from the shore.

“I know that noise!” Cindy exclaimed, then pointed into the jungle ahead of us with her hand shaking, “M-M-M-Monkeys!!!” She then ducked under the water until only her nose, eyes, and hair were visible.

Shading his eyes and squinting, Jimmy muttered, “They're not doing what I think they're doing, are they?!!”

“I hope not, Jimmy! Hey, is that my shirt?!” Sheen exclaimed, pointing at one of them making off with it.

“And are those my JEANS?!? Those are designer jeans they're making off with!!” Libby shrieked in shock.

“I'm glad it's just us here...,” Cindy muttered, “I'd be utterly HUMILIATED if any of our friends saw us here!” Then she shouted, “Get those MONKEYS!!!!”

Seethingly mad for the first time in my life, I ordered, “CHAAAAAARRRGE!!!!!!”

“After them!!” Jimmy demanded, charging after them with us swiftly following close behind him and Goddard.

[okmeamithinknow]

Why are they always naked?

[Zoey <3]

Yeah I did..

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

Now, THIS dilemma is gonna be solved in this chapter RIGHT away! No worries! Here it is!


Emerging Compassions

Chapter 16: Adaptation to This Humid Ecosystem...
(Jimmy's POV)


This has GOT to be the most humiliating experience I've ever been through..., I begrudgingly thought to myself as we ran in hot pursuit of those monkeys that stole our stuff.

One of them stopped long enough to mock us by blowing a strawberry at us, then ran ahead and joined his buddies again. I couldn't help but notice that he was wearing my red t-shirt backwards.

Cindy just blew one back at him as we continued to pursue them, though not without some of us gasping for breath as we ran.

“Uh, Jimmy?” Carl gasped, “Can we stop for a minute? My legs are chafing, and I need OXYGEN!!!”

I stopped long enough to respond back and say, “Carl, you're letting them get away! C'mon!!” With that, I started running after those monkeys again.

Out of the blue, Cindy cracked, “Neutron, isn't that big head of yours getting rather heavy?!”

“Cindy, aren't you getting a little old for that particular type of taunting??” I wanted to know, getting just a tad out of breath.

“Oh, yeah...,” she muttered, “Not that good for a relationship like ours...”

Then I added just to tease her playfully, “Isn't that stomach of yours getting just a TAD heavy for ya??!”

“Oh, Jimmy, you're such a kidder!!” Cindy replied, giggling.

“Uh, guys? I don't know about you, but I can't see OR hear the monkeys anymore...,” Sheen put in breathlessly, catching his breath.

The rest of us stopped with him, as well, to catch our breath, too.

“I think Sheen's right,” Libby pointed out, just barely gasping for breath, “I can't see or hear them, either...”

“Neither can I...,” I mused, “We might as well give up on the chase.”

Finally catching his breath, Carl added, “Besides, didn't you bring some spare clothes in that infinite-space-thingy of yours along with the camping stuff?”

“Hey, you're right!” I noticed approvingly, “Carl, you're a genius!!”

“But I thought they made us hot in this jungle, Neutron,” Libby reminded us as we headed back to camp.

“Good point,” I noted, then turned to Goddard and asked, “Goddard, what's the temperature?”

He then displayed on his screen: “115°F.”

“Holy Heisenberg!!” I exclaimed, “No wonder we feel just fine now! We'll save them for when my rocket's fixed and we head for Mt. Everest.”

“Good idea, but what should we do for now?” Cindy wanted to know.

“I believe, as to avoid overheating ourselves, we should just stay the way we are. But if you don't feel comfortable doing that, you're all welcome to make yourself something out of the native flora to cover yourselves up. I prefer the latter to the second option, though. Too much needlework for me,” I told them informatively.

“Well, not fo' us! C'mon, Cin! We've got some sewin' t' do!!” Libby said, grabbing Cindy's arm and leading her into the forest about 50 feet away from us.

As for me, I immediately began work on my wrecked rocket with Goddard's help. Carl and Sheen weren't far off, arguing about who knows what.

Some 30 minutes later, Cindy and Libby emerged from the jungle flora wearing some garments created from the jungle's mega-flora. “So, what do ya think, Jimmy??” Cindy wanted to know, striking a fashion model pose, just as Libby was.

I took one look at her and gasped, “Cindy, you look so... FABULOUS!!!”

Then Libby hollered to Sheen, snapping her fingers to get his attention, “Oh, Sheen!!”

“Yeah?” he questioned, turning around, then really looked at her and exclaimed, “Whoa, BABY!!! I sure got me some hot tamales right there!!”

“I think Elkie would look equally as hot in that outfit!” Carl shyly interjected, looking at his feet. I was pretty sure he was picturing his Swedish friend in the same outfit as Cindy and Libby. Surprisingly, he was a lot slimmer at age 17 than at 11.

The 2 girls then snapped their fingers at us again to grab our attention with Cindy snapping at us, “Hey! Pay attention, all 3 of you!!”

We shook our heads vigorously and returned to reality. Then I inquired, “What is it, ladies?”

“We made some stuff for you boys, too,” Libby informed us, and brought out some handmade garments they made for us, similar to what they wore, only they were more masculine and didn't include the upper half they were wearing.

“How do we know whose is whose?” Carl asked.

“Simple. We wove each of your first and last initials into the belt portion of these loincloths,” Cindy explained helpfully, “Plus, they should all fit securely around your waistline and cover you up decently without riding up or sliding down or off of you.”

“Gee, thanks, ladies!” I thanked them with Carl and Sheen voicing generally the same thing, “That was very thoughtful of you!” Without another thought, we slipped the garments on without any problems.

Then, as a token of thanks, I gave Cindy a brief kiss on her lips, after which, she just blushed and said softly, “Thanks, Jimmy.”

Little did we know we were being watched...
