Jeff's Quest For Love Part I [It happened sometime after the events of the War Against Giygas. Ness had returned to peaceful Onett, Paula was back in Twoson, and Poo was back in princehood. Unfortunatly, Jeff was right smack dap back in his boarding school. The boarding school wasn't exactly his problem, however; Jeff loved to learn. It was that it was spring time and the old saying always spread across the school like a forest fire: "Love is in the air". Even Jeff's most annoying of teachers fell in love too. It seemed everyone did, except Jeff. Even Tony had a girl friend. Unfortunatly, Jeff was the last one to realize this too. We now find Jeff lying on his bed after classes had finished.] Jeff: Ugh... I hate spring......... love? PHEWIE! [Suddenly Tony kicked open their door and seems to dance on to his bed] Jeff: (thinks) If he wasn't my best friend, I'd shoot him just for being perky... Tony: Oh man!!! That was great!!! Jeff: What was? Tony: My girl friend gave me a kiss!!! Jeff: SAY WHAT?! [Jeff bolts right up from his lying down state] Jeff: Since WHEN do you have a girl friend???!!! Tony: Since I met her... exactly 5 months ago... why? [Jeff flops back down on his back] Jeff: Nothing in particular. [Jeff sighs and turns over, putting his pillow over his head.] Tony: On this up-coming Saturday, I'm taking her out on a moonlit stroll! [Jeff groans.] Jeff: Who's the lucky lady? [Tony grins] Tony: Kimmy [Jeff chuckles] Jeff: Kimmy Thompson? The fat girl in science class? Tony: No, Kimmy Black, the girl in our math class [Jeff just about dropped dead upon hearing this. Kimmy Black was tall, blonde-haired, blue-eyed, and extremely beautiful. She was also friendly, and nice to be with, however, she didn't even know Jeff exsisted.] Jeff: Y-you gotta be jokin'?! Aren't you!!??? Tony: No... not a bit [Jeff sits upright] Jeff: Oh man! How'd you get to talk to her? She always ignored me! Tony: Oh, I tripped in the hall, and she helped me up. Love at first sight, Jeff! I'm tellin' ya! Magic was in the air! Jeff: (mutters) I'll tell you where you can stick yer magic! Tony: Pardon? Jeff: Oh, nothing... nothing at all... [Later, the next day... Jeff and Tony are walking down the hall together to their last class: Math.] Tony: Geesh, I don't get any of this Math stuff. Jeff: I'll tutor you later... [Suddenly Kimmy Black comes running up to Tony] Kimmy: Hiya, honey! [Jeff nearly dies on the spot] Tony: Oh, hey... Kimmy: I heard you need some tutoring! Tony: That's okay, Jeff here decided to-- Kimmy: Nonsense! C'mon! We're going to be late! [Kimmy nabs Tony and runs to the class, leaving Jeff fuming] Jeff: I hate love... [Later that day, after class, Jeff is sitting on the roof of the building. It's his favorite thinking spot. True enough that the teachers and workers told him not to go up there a lot, but that never stopped him, so they just let him up there.] Jeff: Stupid Tony, Stupid Kimmy Black, Stupid Love!!! [Jeff kicks a tiny rock off the building's roof] Jeff: Stupid ME!!!! Why would I EVER think girls would ever like me!!??? [The next day: Saturday. Jeff decided to go see his dad in his lab] Jeff: What happened to mom? Dr. Andonuts: I thought I had allready told you this story at least 30 times now? Jeff: Maybe when I was 2 or 3... but I don't remember... Dr. Andonuts: She was building the prototype phase distorter and attempted to go back in history. There was no extreme power surge, but she traveled roughly 3 seconds forward in time, and her body was completely destroyed. That's how I knew when you kids went to the cave of the past. Jeff: Oh.... dad is there come curse that comes to us male Andonuts that just makes girls hate us? Dr. Andonuts: No! of course not! It was because of love your mother and I built a space station with NASA once! [Jeff twirls around and stares at his dad] Jeff: You and mom built a space station?!?!?! Dr. Andonuts: oh! Deary, yes! I remember it like it was merely yesterday! The space colony: NOAH. Jeff: WOW!!! What was done on that colony??? Dr. Andonuts: You mother tried to find cures for sicknesses or ailments. She made many successes. Unfortunatly, she tried something even I couldn't understand. Making a genetically altered being that's main DNA code would make all humanity invincible to sickness or injury, even the thought of death would be vanquished. However, the government cut our funding, and made us return here. They were afraid of the project. Jeff: What was the project, dad? Dr. Andonuts: Using a series of tests, we made a genetically altered... well, a clone of you... basically... he's sort of... your older brother. Jeff: WHAAAA?! You did all that neat stuff and didn't tell me? Why not?! Dr. Andonuts: I was hoping that the project would be left alone forever. It's frozen right now... we called the project: CodeName Blur. The child is alive, and so is his prototype... which I'd prefer not to discuss.... Jeff: Why? what's so wrong with the prototype, dad? Dr. Andonuts: It was a bionic dinosaur who was beyond control. The government nearly cut us off there, but forgave us after we froze it. [Dr. Andonuts sighs] Dr. Andonuts: You can't tell any of your little friends about the colony! Please!!! Jeff: I'll try, dad! I'll try! But someday I'm going to that colony and meeting my older brother. [Jeff runs off before Dr. Andonuts can deny him that right. Later, at school. Jeff flips open his door to his room, and sees Kimmy and Tony kissing! But instead of noticing (or caring) Jeff just hops to his bed and begins drawing what he thought the space station might look like] Tony: Jeff! I--err... she was helping me study.... Kimmy: Err--Yeah! Jeff: Shush!!! I'm working!! [On his drawing, Jeff labels where he thinks the the prototype dinosaur lies and where Blur lies. He wrote "ProtoDino" and "Blur" on his blueprint.] Jeff: YEAH! That's what it HAS to look like! Tony: What, WHAT looks like? Jeff? [Jeff shows Tony the picture without thinking] Tony: Wow! Neat! Do you intend on using that picture for the school talent project? Jeff: What? No! Goodness, NO! Tony: Why not? It'd win first prize! It looks AWESOME!! Kimmy: What is "ProtoDino"? Jeff: I can't tell anyone. I'm sworn to secrecy. Tony: Oooo!!! A secret project!!! Way cool! Jeff: I can't tell ya much, except this is a space colony.... blueprint. Kimmy: That's great! I think you should enter it, Jeff [Jeff Writes NOAH on the bottem, then looks at Kimmy] Jeff: How do you know my name? Kimmy: Everyone knows you! You were all over the Winters' newspapers! Jeff: I... was? [Tony takes out a bunch of clipped newspaper articles that Jeff reviews, every scene looks familiar, blasting UFO's, Mooks, Dogs, Great Crested Bookas, and so on.] Jeff: Wow, that brings back memories. Kimmy: Yeah! All the single gals wanna date you, but they're too shy to ask! Jeff: Well, the feeling is mutual. Besides, I'm not interested in love or girls. Science is more like it to me! Kimmy: Oh, poohy! Oh well, I'm sure they'll get over it... [On Monday, the talent project entries were due....] Tony: C'mon, Jeff! Turn in the space station design! It's wicked! Jeff: Well, I don't suppose their is any harm in that... [Jeff drops the picture into the submission's box.] Jeff: But the odds of winning are the same as the Starmen.net funfests! 100 to 1! Tony: Don't be so pessimistic, Jeff! [Later that day... Jeff is walking down the hall to his room after classes and bumps into a girl, who drops her books] Jeff: Oh man! I'm so sorry! Girl: Oh no! I am too! I didn't look where I was going! [Both scramble to retrieve the books, and Jeff looks at her, she has deep blue eyes hidden behind thick glasses, long flowing blonde hair, and a slight hint of a blush on her cheek. Jeff, on the other hand, IS blushing] Jeff: I--err... Girl: My name is Amy Bagel! [Jeff just about dies] Jeff: The daughter of Dr. Bagel? The guy who lives in Bageland? Amy: Yes, why? Jeff: I'm-- Amy: Jeff Andonuts! Everyone knows you! Jeff; I didn't know Bagel had a daughter! Amy: He does! I'm adopted though... he's a bit weird... Jeff: Trust me, I know. Amy: D-do you have a g-irl f-f-friend? Jeff: No.... why? Amy: No reason... by the way... I have a couple broken things in my room, could you come and fix a couple today? Jeff: Sure! I'm free right now! [Jeff goes straights to work on the broken items, and in a snap, the intire room is fixes up perfectly again] Jeff: All taken care of! Amy: Oh my! Well, you'll probably have to come and visit at least once a week... I'm accident prone... Jeff: Sure, how about every... Saturday? Amy: Great! [Amy gives Jeff a little kiss and runs to her room with a little wave, and shuts the door slowly. Jeff stands there, totally stunned. Jeff then, is hit by some super-speeding object, which knocks him flat, and turns out only to be Ness] Jeff: Ness! What's up? Ness: Paula and Poo have been kidnapped by Bagel! [Amy's door opens a crack] Ness: That flippin' mad man is at it again! He also stole some large rock from a musem! [Jeff gets up] Jeff: Yeah! Let's put an end to Bagel once and for all! [Amy's door flies open, and Amy leaps between them] Amy: NOOO!! Don't hurt daddy!!! Ness: "daddy'???!!! Amy: Bagel's my father! And I know he's a bit odd but he's a nice man! [Suddenly the TV from the teacher's lounge can be heared] TV Voice: I am doctor Bagel! I am now going to the space colony, NOAH, and if all the world leaders do not turn over total power to me... I shall release the prototype Blur upon this planet, and he'll tear everything to pieces! Ness: What is the Prototype, Blur? Jeff: A bionic dinosaur with about a million times the destructive power as a bionic kracken... Amy: Daddy...... don't do it... Ness: Let's go! We gotta save Paula and Poo too, y'know! Amy: You're not going in there without me! I'm coming too! Ness: I've allready done some recon, and as it turns out, Bagel has a rocket ship allready loaded up! C'mon let's go! To be continued...
