Time Fixers: Nicktoons of the Future

Episode 12: Search for the Five Crystals

Plot: The Nicktoons are framed by thieves that look just like them and are quickly pursued by the Guys in White. Worse, their parents are kidnapped by the Syndicate, who demand they locate the Five Crystals that the original Nicktoons had hidden years ago and bring them in. Now the Nicktoons must find the crystals in three days to save their parents while the Cadets buy them some time from the Guys in White. But when journeying those worlds to search for these Crystals, they discover an old acquaintance from Jimmy's past.

Part 4

Back in the vast wasteland of Antarctica, the real Darry laid on the cold snowy ground unconscious, wearing his normal attire without his winter clothes, but still has his fishy appearance. He groaned in pain until something licked him on the face, making him laugh.

"Goddard!" Darry said with a smile, happy to see a familiar face. "Good to see you, boy." But then he looked around to see no one else in sight. "I just wish I knew where we were. Where is everybody?"

Goddard whined and darts his head over. Darry gasped and gets up. "Did something happen to them?" he asked when he felt a sharp pain on his head and rubbed it. "Ugh, I feel like someone hit me with a hammer."

Then he felt a gust of snowy wind blow past them, nearly knocking him off his feet. Though the cold chill didn't bother him despite the low temperature. "At least being cold-blooded now has its perks."

Goddard barked at him and Darry responded, "I know. I gotta find them, but how? I don't even know where to start looking."

Goddard barked again and ran past him through the snow. He barked once more. Darry understood, "Do you know where they are?"

The dog barked and whirred some more as he continued running through the snow. Darry smiled and chuckled. "Then you lead the way!" he shouted before running after him.

Goddard kept sniffing, attempting to track a signal to where their comrades are held captive. Darry covered his eyes to prevent the snow from falling in his face until he heard more barking. He dashed off. "Where are they, boy?" Darry asked. Goddard responded by lifting his front leg and points his head down. Darry rubs his eyes, realizing they are in front of a polar icecap and Goddard was pointing at the cold water. "Do you mean..." Darry began asking nervously. "They're in there?"

Goddard nodded and barked, pointing at the water. "But I can't go in there." Darry insisted as he back away. "I can't swim! And that water is below freezing!"

"Arf! Arf!"

"It has to be thousands of feet deep! Not even a human can survive down there, you'd have to be a-" Darry's eyes pop open and looks at his hands and feet, remembering he was still a fish creature. "Oh right."

He dipped one foot in the water, but quickly took it out as he felt a small chill. He turned to Goddard and said in a brave tone, "If I don't make it back, take good care of my mother and sister." Goddard tilted his head and Darry closed his eyes and suddenly jumped into the freezing waters.

Inside the ocean, he floated inside the water and opened his eyes to see where he was. He glanced around and smiled. "Hey, this isn't so bad." He said to himself. As a fish creature, Darry was able to breath easily underwater and his newly formed fins helped him swim through.

He dives deeper into the ocean to find where his friends are hidden. He plunges deeper and deeper, but stops in his tracks. Not very far from here was a large underwater dome at the bottom of the sea. Darry guesses it's another of the Syndicate's lair and where they were keeping his father and the Nicktoons as well. He swims downward to reach the lair where his friends are.

Inside the lair, Jimmy, Timmy, Danny, SpongeBob, Tak, and the fairies were still imprisoned in their cage. "Got any fives?" Tak asked Poof as he, Cosmo, Wanda, Timmy, and SpongeBob played a card game.

"Poof!" Poof shook his head and Tak draws another card.

During this, Jimmy is at the corner of the cage, watching the dome they're inside when he asks Danny, "You think the kids are alright?"

"If they're anything like us, they probably are." Danny responded. "But honestly, I'm just as worried as you are, knowing the kind of danger they're in, trying to find those crystals we hid so cryptically."

"By the way, Neutron," Timmy wondered, "Where did you hide your crystal?"

Jimmy's eyes widen nervously until he glanced away and answered, "In my lab. Where else?"

"That's not what Sheen told me." SpongeBob pointed out.

"You mean you hid the crystal somewhere else?" Tak asked suspiciously. "Where?"

Jimmy sighed and slid down against the bars. "I hid it...I hid it somewhere memorable...on the day I nearly changed my life."

"You're not talking about that day, are you?" Danny asked in surprise.

"Correct." Jimmy said depressively. "I hid it...with her."

"It appears that your children's three days are up," Calamitous spoke, making Jimmy and the others turn and face him and the Syndicate.

Danny held onto the bars saying, "What do you want now, Calamitous?"

"Just here to bring you a lovely farewell present." Calamitous answered as the door opened behind him. "The three days are up, yes. But it would seem that your children succeeded in bringing what we desired."

Suddenly, the rest of the Syndicate walks in and behind him were the Toybots dragging in Tammy, Tommy, SpongeTron, and Cindy (all of whom regained consciousness) still tied with Brats large pink ribbon.

Everyone behind the bars gasped in horror. "Tommy! Tammy!" Timmy cried with the fairies expressing the same reaction as him.

"SpongeTron!" SpongeBob yelled out.

Cindy groans and lifted her head just for Jimmy to fully recognize her. "Cindy?" he asked confused, but shocked.

Spotting Jimmy, Cindy gasped, but suddenly frowned, "Oh lookie here, if it isn't the man who ripped my heart to pieces. Surprised to see me after all these years?"

"Surprised to see you after a long period of time, but not as much as for our reunion to be during this sort of predicament." Jimmy responded with a sheepish chuckle.

The ToyBots dump their captives aside. Boss Huggles walks up to Calamitous and hands him SpongeTron's kiddie box containing the crystals. "Here ya go, Boss," Huggles grinned.

Calamitous smiles and snatches the box from. "Now, now," he chuckled at Tommy, Tammy, and SpongeTron "Isn't it nice that children do what adults tell them to do? Hmm…there's one thing I forgot, of course! If you retrieved the crystals, I'd let you see your parents again."

Next, the bar opens and Tommy, Tammy, SpongeTron, and Cindy are flung into the cage with the others. As soon as they went inside, the bars quickly close.

"Hey!" Tommy shouted at the villains as he and the others get loose from the ribbons. "You said you would let them go!"

"We said that we'd let you see your parents alive again," Traloc mentioned, "We never said we would let them go.

"That's a dirty trick!" SpongeTron pointed angrily.

"Whatever," Plankton scoffs and hops on top of Calamitous' head as he opens the box. Plankton dives in and takes out the yellow crystal, "The Bikini Bottom Crystal!"

Crocker takes out the red gem from the box, "The Dimmsdale Crystal!

Then, Traloc picks up the orange crystal, "The Pupununu Crystal."

Calamitous sticks his robotic claw inside to grab the green crystal, "The Amity Park Crystal. Hmm, wasn't there a fifth crystal? Where was it again-oh right." He smirks, turning to Cindy still wearing the blue crystal as a necklace.

He reaches through the bars and pulls the crystal off her neck as the string breaks. Jimmy holds her shoulders as a possible means of protecting her, but Cindy just frowns and smacks his hands away.

"The Retroville Crystal!" Calamitous raised the blue crystal in the air, "At last!"

Plankton snickered, "I guess hiding all these gems just to protect your hometowns was a wasted effort, wasn't it?"

While the villains were gloating over their victory, Danny took the moment to quietly ask the kids, "Where's Darry?" noticing he had not been brought in with them. "Why isn't he with you?"

Tommy, Tammy, and SpongeTron look at one another and bowed their heads, not responding. Danny gasped horrified and turns gripping the bars. "Where the heck is Darry?" Danny demanded from the Syndicate, "What did you do to him!?"

"How should we know?" Crocker asked with a nonchalant shrug. But the Toybots secretly giggle sadistically at each other as they smirk.

"And frankly, that doesn't concern us at all." Calamitous answered in the same manner before holding up the two crystals. "Now to activate the five crystals and finally conquer the worlds!"

Meanwhile, Darry was managed to reach the dome. He presses his face and palms against the glass to see he was correct: the Syndicate was there with his dad and friends captive. He gasped, too late as the Syndicate had all five crystals in their hands.

Inside the dome, Danny gripped the bars tightly, furious at what they have done to his son. But knowing there's nothing he can do, he bowed his head in sadness. "What are you gonna do with the Crystals?" Tammy asked the villains.

"It's quite simple really." Plankton said as he held his world's crystal. "First we'll activate their power which will slowly crumble each world, and then we'll use their powers to rule over and perish anyone who dares to stand against us."

"Starting with all of you." Traloc finished as he pointed to the Nicktoons.

Then the kids huddled together with their fathers while Calamitous held his two crystals in the air. "Now let us activate their powers and begin our reign of triumph!"

Traloc, Crocker, and Plankton all hold their crystals up as well, as the crystals all began to glow brightly as they power up. As the heroes all watch helplessly, thinking it was the end, something strange happened; the Bikini Bottom Crystal suddenly let out a small yellow spark from the tip that caused it to suddenly power down.

"What?!" Plankton asked as he shook the crystal, but still nothing happened. "What is the meaning of this?"

The glow of the crystals faded, not reacting to the Bikini Bottom Crystal. Calamitous takes the yellow gem from Plankton and examines it. "It seems that you didn't reach the end of the bargain," Calamitous said, throwing the dull crystal aside. "Where is the crystal? The REAL one?"

"That...That is the real Bikini Bottom Crystal." Tammy hesitantly answered.

Calamitous growled and asked SpongeBob, "Where is the Crystal's location?"

"We found it at the Krusty Krab," SpongeTron answered for him.

"He's right." Jimmy added. "That's where the crystal was hidden. So that's the true crystal you have in your possession."

"If it is the true crystal, then why is its power not working?" Plankton asked.

Calamitous then glared at the Nicktoons and threatened, "I demand an explanation about why the crystal is powerless and how to make it work again."

"Oh, come now!" a familiar voice rang out. "That's not a nice way to ask!" Everyone gasps to see Darry as a fish creature, standing in the doorway, soaking wet, but alive and unharmed. Tammy, Tommy, and SpongeTron all smile to see their friend alright.

"What abomination is this?" Calamitous said, startled at the creature at stand before him, "Ugh, it's hideous!"

Danny stared at the fish creature in astonishment until he noticed it wearing the same Specter Deflector he placed on his son. "Darry?!" he asked in shock.

"Dad!" Darry shouted with a smile to see his father alive in the cage, but then frowned and slumped over. "I know...I've looked worse."

"I understand now." Calamitous said as he pointed to Darry. "You used the Bikini Bottom Crystal!"

"I didn't use it." Darry said as he crossed his arms. "I just held onto it for a while."

But Calamitous continued, "You maxed out the power of the Bikini Bottom Crystal and now all its power has been transferred to you, ghost child."

"That makes sense." Tak pointed out. "I remember when Jimmy used the Amity Park Crystal and he became a monstrous ghost that went on a rampage."

"Dar! Don't let the Syndicate get ahold of you!" Jimmy warned, "If they have all of the five crystal's power, our worlds will be destroyed!"

But Plankton turned to the Toybots and ordered, "Don't just stand there! Get that ugly mermaid!"

Dynamo zooms toward exit, blocking the ghost boy's only means of escape as Boss Huggles, Shock, and Brat corner him. "Nowhere to run to, fish boy!" Brat chuckles as Darry backs away.

Boss Huggles chuckles, pounding his hammer on his palm. "We've already ruined your reputation, took your friends and father, and your chances of beating us. There's NO one to save you now!"

Just then, a silver object is spotted through the glass dome as its hurls into the dome and crashed through, breaking the glass, and letting seawater burst through. Darry realizes it was the Specter Speeder and the front dome opens, letting out two small figures that look like him. "Have no fear!" Crash yelled, still wearing his Darry costume, "Cuz Darry Phantom is here to save the day!"

But Twitchy pushes him aside. "No,it'smeasDarrytosavetheday! I'mabetterDarry!"

"Heck no!" Crash shouted at Twitchy. "I'm the one who's got more moves and is cooler! I'm the better Darry!"

The people imprisoned in the cage, look at the two Darrys confused. "I didn't know your son knew duplication," SpongeBob said to Danny.

"He doesn't." Danny said, dumbfounded. "And he's not a sponge or a squirrel either."

Then, Yuki comes out of the Speeder, holding the Fenton Wrist Ray as SpongeTron 911, Junior, and Kida come along. "Release my friends, dad, and brother!" Yuki yelled, but stared at the fish Darry, "If…that is my brother."

But as more water poured in and began to flood the room, Traloc shouted, "You little fools! We're all going to drown within minutes!"

"But not without the crystals!" Calamitous shouts as he points at Shock and signals him.

Shock laughs and jumps onto Darry, clinging himself to him. "Hey!" Darry shouts as he struggles to pull the bunny off as he gets shocked. "Let go of me!" But then, Shock suddenly explodes with a loud boom and sends Darry into the wall, falling to the flooding floor unconscious.

"Dar!" Danny cried, gurgling water as it was closing in their cage, making the captives float towards the top. They have to find a way out and fast.

Calamitous grabbed Darry with his claw and dragged him away as he and the Syndicate begin to leave through the door with the crystals. "So long, suckers!" Crocker shouts as he shuts the door behind him.

The Speeder floats on top of the pouring water where SpongeTron 911 dives in. Underwater, 911 looks around and spots the cage imprisoning his friends, who struggled to hold their breath. He swims toward the cage where Jimmy grabs hold of the bars. 911's index finger glows red as he cuts through the bars with a laser.

Jimmy pushes the bars aside and led the gang out of the cage. 911 pointed a finger up to where the Speeder was and swam up as the Nicktoons and kids followed him toward the surface.

The Cadets were in the Speeder, looking at the water to see if they made it. Finally, everyone burst out of the water, gasping for breath, and swim toward the Speeder. Danny and Timmy brought Tommy, Tammy, and SpongeTron aboard first and hopped in. They helped SpongeBob and 911 as Jimmy got on and noticed Cindy. Jimmy lends a hand to her so he can lift her up, but Cindy smacks it away. "I can take care of myself, thanks," she spat in sarcasm as she went inside the Speeder.

"I can see that, especially since you and my teammates got captured by the Syndicate and gave them the last crystal," Jimmy retorted.

"Well, it only makes sense for you to drag me into another one of your life-threatening adventures!" Cindy spat as she wrung out her ponytail.

"Uh guys?" SpongeBob mentioned, pointing at the water that was close to filling the entire room. Danny pushes a button to seal the dome before the Speeder can be flooded. He takes the wheel and drives the Speeder through the hole it previously made.

"Did you get the Bikini Bottom Crystal?" Danny asked his team.

"Yeah, we did." SpongeTron answered sadly. "But Darry was carrying the crystal with him for the whole three days since we found it, and now he has its powers, which explains his ugly fish form."

"Yeah, but we're gonna need it if we're gonna bring Darry back to normal and place its power in its proper vessel."

"But the Syndicate escaped with the crystals- and Darry." Timmy pointed out. "If we don't hurry, they'll get the crystal's power from Darry before we do."

"Which is why we're gonna stop them," Jimmy said to his team, Tommy, Tammy, and SpongeTron, and the Cadets, "Together."

But then Cindy took this moment to ask, "Neutron, why did you leave me all those years ago?"

But Jimmy got annoyed and asked, "Cindy, now is not the best time to-"

"Do you regret it?" Cindy demanded to know.

Jimmy froze, looking at Cindy and glanced away not answering. Danny drove out of the dome and looked at the scanners. "With the Specter Deflector on, I won't be able to detect Darry or the Syndicate."

"You don't have to," Jimmy said, taking out another device.

He pushes the button that shows a map and the machine says, "Crystals located."

"I built this to detect the Crystal's energy signature," Jimmy explained, "In case this was to happen again." Danny followed the device's instructions and drove further into the lair to find where the Syndicate is holding Darry.

Inside another room of the lair, Darry was lying against the wall with his arms and legs tied up with Brat's pink ribbons while he was still unconscious. "Now how are we going to get the power of the Bikini Bottom Crystal out of him?" Crocker asked.

"It's simple really." Calamitous asked as he picked up Darry by his shirt collar and held the Bikini Bottom Crystal in his other hand. "He just needs to react to the crystal and all his powers will go back inside its original vessel."

"And what will we do once its powers escape the boy and go back in the crystal?" Traloc asked.

Calamitous grinned. "We'll dispose of him along with all his family and friends..."

Outside the lair, Danny drives the Speeder towards an opening, but was sealing its doors shut. Danny pushes the gas pedal as the Speeder's thrusters activate and zoom back inside before it closes shut.

They make it back in a room where everyone hops off the Speeder. "Now to find Dar-" but a pink ribbon shot out and tied Danny by the torso. They turn to see it was the ToySquad behind this.

"Think you can foil the Syndicate again?" Boss Huggles asked, "Well, you thought wrong. If you face the Syndicate, you must first face the ToySquad Elite Four!"

Tommy, Tammy, and SpongeTron growl, ready to battle them for payback for what they've done to them. Yuki stopped them, "Hold it. Why don't you let us Cadets handle them?"

"But these guys are pretty challenging." Tommy pointed out. "Are you even sure you can handle this?"

"Please, they're just toys who were obsolete years ago," Kida said, taking out her staff.

"I prefer video games any day than playin' with them varmints," Crash smirked, "Looks like I ain't got no choice."

"Besides, they messed with my brother and you guys," Yuki added, "No way I'll forgive them for that."

"And y'all are still powerless, remember?" Twitchy mentioned with a chuckle as his left eye twitches.

The three Nicktoons glance at each other, but then Tammy answers, "Fine, go ahead."

Danny releases himself from Brat's ribbons and turns to Yuki and her team. "All of you be careful," Danny cautioned the Cadets as SpongeBob and Tak nodded in agreement and ran off with Tommy, Tammy, and SpongeTron, leaving the Cadets to face the ToySquad.

"ToySquad Elite Four, ATTACK!" Boss Huggles ordered.

Shock laughed manically as he hopped at a hyperactive speed. "Letmeshockyou! Letmeshockyou! LetmeshockyoutilyouEXPLODE!" he squealed until Junior grabs Shock.

Junior's face beamed as he cuddles the plush bunny. "Aww! You're the most cutest thing I've ever seen in my life!"

"Hey,whatareyoudoing?" Shock asked as Junior hugged him tighter until he became smothered. "You'resupposedtoletmeblowyouup!" As Junior hugged it tighter and tighter, Shock suddenly blew up in Junior's arms and fell to the ground in pieces while the little sponge stared down in confusion.

Brat jumped into the air and started spinning, letting out her ribbons at once. Thanks to his hyperactive speed, Twitchy was able to dodge through as Kida twirled her staff to deflect the ribbons. Next, Kida shoots a pink beam that zaps Brat as she fell on the ground. Twitchy dashes over and ties Brat with her own ribbons.

Dynamo was driving at fast speed toward Crash, but the sponge jumped into the air and landed on top of him while he drove around, but Crash hung on. "Yee-haw!" he shouted for fun. Dynamo starts twirling around in circles and jumping up and down so Crash can get off him, but the stunt sponge had a tight grip.

Crash then steered Dynamo to the right as he kept driving, but this caused the toy to drive right into the wall just as Crash jumped off, leaving Dynamo a crashed wreck.

"And that leaves the main prize," Yuki smirked as she turned to Boss Huggles, the remaining ToyBot standing.

Boss Huggles cowers away as Yuki comes closer until backed up by a wall. Yuki smiles, holding out his wrist ray. Suddenly, a glow forms around Huggles and he turns into Darry. "You wouldn't harm your own brother, would you?" he said innocently in Darry's voice until he was blasted by the wrist ray.

"Couldn't have picked an easier target," Yuki said calmly, blowing smoke off her wrist ray.

Boss Huggles groans and falls to his knees, changing back into his normal form before falling forward on the ground. Her teammates surround her and they all smile, having won their first successful battle together as the Nicktoon Cadets.

Tommy, Tommy, SpongeTrons 001 and 911, Cindy, and the original Nicktoons ran toward the main door. "Hold it!" Timmy called out, stopping Tommy and Tammy from opening the door.

"What? Are you gonna say it's dangerous and let you guys fight the Syndicate and save the day as we watch pass the sidelines?" Tammy asked.

"We know it's gonna be dangerous, but Darry's our friend and as his teammates, we have to help him," Tommy added.

"And there's nothing you can do to stop us," SpongeTron finished.

"Actually, I was gonna say that you can't fight them without your certain abilities," Timmy said, winking at Poof. Poof smiles and disappeared only to reappear beside Tommy and Tammy. Tammy and Tommy both hug their godparent, happy to have him back on their side.

Jimmy leans toward SpongeTron and reinserts the weapon chip in SpongeTron's back. SpongeTron's body whirred about and stopped. SpongeTron looks at his right arm which turns into a plasma ray to his glee. "You all have grown miraculously as a team." Jimmy told them. "And this time, we'll be the ones to back you up."

"Now to save Darry, revert him to normal, and help him regain his true strength," Danny said, holding out the key to unlocking the Specter Deflector.

Meanwhile, Professor Calamitous was still holding the unconscious Darry as he tried to activate the Bikini Bottom Crystal to take back its power from him. "Come on...come on." Calamitous muttered until the Bikini Bottom Crystal gained a faint yellow glow. "Yes!"

Darry's body began to glow bright yellow as well as his new powers began to leave him.

"It's working!" Plankton cheered as he jumped up. "Soon all of Bikini Bottom will be at my disposal!"

But suddenly, the door was knocked down, and a blast of magical energy was shot at Calamitous's claw, causing him to drop Darry on the ground.

The Syndicate turns and sees Tommy, Tammy, and SpongeTron, now loaded with weapons with the Nicktoons, 911, and Cindy to back them up. "Drop the crystal and let our friend go!" Tommy yelled aiming his magic rifle.

"You all are still alive?" Crocker asked angrily. "Why does that not surprise me?"

The kids hear a groaning noise and look down to see the yellow glow around Darry faded and has reverted him back to his normal form. Calamitous looks at the yellow crystal glowing brightly. "Ha!" Calamitous laughed as he gripped the crystal. "You are too late!"

"Now we have ALL the power of the five crystals!" Plankton said, taking the yellow crystal and holding it up. Then, they hear a loud noise and look at the bottom doors. They burst open and more water pours in.

"Well, it seems our new lair won't hold much longer," Traloc said, holding the orange crystal.

"No matter. We can build a new lair- over the ruins of your worlds!" Crocker pointed out, raising the red crystal.

Calamitous grabs the still unconscious but human Darry. "Since you're ghost-powerless and no longer a vessel of the crystal's power, we don't require your services anymore." Then, he throws Darry into the raising water.

"Darry!" Danny cried and turned into ghost form. He is about to dive into the water, but is blasted by a green ecto-beam. He falls on the ground, the key falling out of his hand and beneath Jimmy's feet.

The Amity Park Crystal glows green as well as Calamitous's claw. "And that was the power of the Amity Park crystal." He said with a smile. "Just watch as the power of your world turns against you."

"Nicktoons GO!" SpongeTron yelled out as his teammates and the Nicktoons charge at the Syndicate.

Jimmy picks up the key from the ground and looks at the water. He grips the key tightly, takes a deep breath, and plunges into the water, Plankton watches Jimmy swim to rescue Darry and spots a giant squid near the lair.

Jimmy grabs a hold of Darry and holds on to him to swim them both back to safety. But before they could reach the surface, a large tentacle grabs his leg. He looks down to see a giant squid with eyes glowing yellow.

Above the surface, Plankton was holding the glowing Bikini Bottom crystal. "This thing not only has power over the seas," he mentioned, "But sea creatures as well!"

Tommy pushes multiples blasts at Crocker with Poof as his weapon as Timmy uses Cosmo and Wanda as his Star Flinger. Crocker uses the Dimmsdale Crystal to make himself disappear before the blasts hit him and reappear again. "It's useless, Turners!" he gloated, "I have the magic now!"

Jimmy quickly tries to shake the tentacle off his leg while holding his breath so he can take Darry and himself out of the water. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't shake it off. The squid takes Darry by the other tentacle. Jimmy attempts to yank himself free when the key floats from his pocket. Realizing what to do, Jimmy reaches out for the key and attempts to unlock the Deflector, but Darry was far from reach thanks to the squid.

Tak, SpongeBob, and 911 were facing Traloc who was holding the Pupununu crystal. "Now behold!" Traloc said activating the crystal's power as an orange glow forms around him, "The terrifying power of the Pupununu crystal!"

The group flinches and tries to defend themselves from the crystal's power. But to their surprise, Traloc suddenly fell to the ground, now unconscious. But unknowingly to them, Traloc was now a transparent and invisible spirit. "This is it?" Traloc asked in disappointment as he looked at himself. "This is the crystal's power? What am I supposed to do now?"

Tak pokes Traloc's body with his staff and looks at the others who smirk. Tak shoots a ray that zaps Traloc's body and lifts him in the air. SpongeTron chops and karate kicks the limp body. Tak does several punches at the back and 911 finishes by shocking him with a taser. Traloc inserts himself back into his body, only to feel the huge pain his body feels from the three. He falls, shaking uncontrollably due to 911's taser. He looks up at Calamitous holding two crystals. "Hey, can you pass me a useful crystal this time?"

Calamitous sighs and passes to him the green gem. "Here. The blue crystal is all I need."

In the ocean, Jimmy was still trying to free himself and Darry from the clutches of the squid, but still could not get out of its grip, and Jimmy was starting to feel unable to hold his breath any longer. Suddenly, a large beam stunned the sea creature on the head, making its release both of his victims. Jimmy looks up to see it was Cindy, holding one of his weapons, who went into the waters to save him. Cindy swims toward Darry and brings him up as Jimmy takes out the key and unlocks the Specter Deflector with it. With a click, the belt fell from Darry's waist and sank into the sea.

Above the surface, Jimmy and Cindy splash out of the water, taking a large gasp of breath as they placed Darry on the ground. Jimmy quickly moves next to him to try and wake him up. "Darry…" Jimmy franticly asked as he shook the unconscious Darry. "Darry!"

"Move!" Cindy demanded as he leaned down toward Darry, pinching his nose and kissing his mouth to transfer oxygen into his lungs.

After a few seconds, Darry slowly opens his eyes as Cindy lets go of him. He coughs out some water and breathes heavily as he sits up. "Jimmy?" he whispers until he looks at his hands and feet to see they were restored to normal human flesh as was the rest of his body. "I'm…I'm normal again."

Jimmy holds his shoulder and adds, "I wouldn't say that." Darry looks at his waist to see the Specter Deflector was now gone. Realizing this, he puts on a smirk.

Traloc regains himself and has possession of the green gem. "Behold the terrifying powers of the Amity Park Crystal!" With the crystal, his hands glow green as he shoots ecto-beams from his palms, blasting SpongeBob, 911, and then Tak.

"Creator!" SpongeTron cried when he and Danny turn to Calamitous with the blue crystal.

"And now to awaken the power of the Retroville Crystal!" Calamitous said, raising the crystal in the air as it shines a bright blue. Everything metal and electronic around the lair glowed and pulls away attracted to the crystal. Machinery and metal form around Calamitous until a blue glow shined, blinding SpongeTron and Danny. They open their eyes to see Calamitous has used the crystal to create a giant heavily armored battle suit.

"So this is what victory feels like!" Calamitous shouted as he laughed evilly in his new suit.

"We can't stop them," Danny said as he and the robot back away, "With the crystals, they're all too powerful."

"That's right. At last, we have beaten you and your worlds are ours to command!" Calamitous said, aiming a large ray gun at the two as it whirs with energy and the inside glows. "Any last words before you perish?" They said nothing as SpongeTron quickly hid behind Danny. Calamitous pulls the trigger and blasts a large beam that incinerates them.

"Danny!" SpongeBob cried.

"SpongeTron!" Tommy and Tammy yelled out. Calamitous lifts up his arm, smirking as he finally got rid of two of his enemies. But as the smoke clears, he gasps in shock.

Danny and SpongeTron were unharmed, but somehow see-through. Confused yet relieved, Danny looks from behind. It was Darry, once again in his ghost form as he let go of the two after turning them intangible. Darry sighs and smiles, "This feels so good after three days."

"Darry!" Danny shouts in relief as he hugged his son. "I was afraid I'd lost you."

"You?!" Calamitous said, shocked to see him as Darry zoomed forward.

"That's right," Darry smirked, "Not the normal me…or the fishy me...but the original paranormal me."

Calamitous uses his large arms to grab Darry, but he just flies away to avoid them. He uses both hands to smack him, but Darry just phases through. "I should thank you for making me normal except for the fact you kidnapped and tried to destroy my dad and friends!" Darry's aura turns bright blue as he blasts multiple ecto-beams from his palms, feet, and eyes.

Calamitous is hit by all direct attacks as Jimmy helps Cindy to her feet. "Cindy…" Jimmy began explaining to her as she wrung her ponytail once again. "I… wanna thank you and... I wanna say that I'm-" but Cindy presses a finger on his lips.

"Save the apologies for later," Cindy interrupted, "Right now, your team needs you and fast."

Jimmy nodded and gets up. "We have to find a way to separate the crystals from Syndicate before their powers are maxed and destroy our worlds together."

Cindy picked up the discarded Pupununu Crystal and stared at it in her palm. "Well, we have one. Does it do anything?"

Jimmy grabbed the crystal and stared at it as he smirked. "Yes...it does. We can't get the Syndicate to release the crystals, but with this, I can make them."

Cindy rolled her eyes and sarcastically said, "You still make a lot of sense."

"Watch over me while I take care of the Syndicate," Jimmy said, gripping the Pupununu Crystal as it emits an orange glow. "I'll be right back." An orange glow forms around Jimmy and he suddenly collapses, motionless in Cindy's arms.

Jimmy reappeared as a spirit and looks over at Cindy and his body. He smiles at her and comments, "I promise that if we survive this, I'll make this up to you in the best way that I can." But Cindy didn't acknowledge him and he just rushed over toward Crocker.

Timmy, Tammy, and Tommy were still fighting against Crocker, but he continues to use the Dimmsdale Crystal to defend himself. He glares at them and states, "You are all making me so angry that I could give you all an 'F'!" A red glow appeared over him and storm clouds appear that strike lightning at the Turners, charring the ground below them with ash, shaped into an 'F'.

As Crocker laughs in triumph as the storm clouds disappear into gusts of wind and lightning, Jimmy runs up behind him and takes a deep breath. "I'm gonna need a shower after this." He comments before walking into Crocker's body. Crocker laughs in maniacal glee until he froze, his eyes turning orange. Tommy, Tammy, and Timmy shook fearfully until they notice something strange about Crocker.

"Don't be alarmed, Turner family." Crocker speaks in monotone. "It is actually me, Jimmy Neutron, taking control of Mr. Crocker's body to make him surrender the Dimmsdale Crystal to you."

Crocker holds out the red crystal and flips it over to Timmy Turner. "Uh...thanks," Timmy said, but creeped out, "I think."

The orange glow escapes from Crocker's body as Jimmy walks out and proceeds to the next Syndicate member. "Huh…what?" Crocker turns to notices Timmy and his kids staring at him. "F!" Crocker yelled out holding out his hand only to find the crystal has mysteriously disappeared. Timmy, Tommy, and Tammy smirk as they held out their weapons and point them at Crocker. Crocker screams for his life as the Turners and fairies chase after him.

Plankton ran pass them and aids Crocker by summoning a large tidal wave. But a glow forms around him and his eye turns orange just like Crocker. He raises the yellow crystal in the air. "I don't need the Bikini Bottom crystal anymore," he said in monotone.

"Thanks!" Darry said as he swoops down and grabs the crystal from Plankton, and uses it to stop the rushing water and turn it into ice to patch the hole. Then he uses the water on the floor to create a small wave.

The glow disappears from Plankton and he shakes his head. "Uh…what just happened?" he finally looked up to see the large wave. He screams as the wave drops down and washes him away.

Traloc blasts an ecto-beam at SpongeTron 911, knocking him to the ground. Tak attempted to fire magic from his staff only for a ghostly green glow to appear over him and begin strangling him thanks to Traloc's ghost manipulation he used with the Amity Park Crystal.

"Drop him!" SpongeBob ordered as he jumped through the air with a karate kick, but Traloc used ecto-beams from his eyes to blast him into the wall.

"I love having ghost powers!" Traloc shouted madly as he continued crushing Tak. "Nothing can ruin this magnificent moment!"

But then, he glows and his eyes turn orange as Jimmy took control of him. He powers the crystal down and releases Tak, who sits on the ground and pants as he stares at the odd sight. "My apologies, Tak." He throws the crystal to him. "Take the crystal and guard it with your life until this is over."

"Sure?" Tak answered skeptically as he took the Amity Park Crystal.

"Watch over everyone until I return to my real body." Traloc instructed. "We just need one more crystal."

Tak nodded until Jimmy left Traloc's body, leaving him disoriented for a while. "What happened?" Traloc asked until he noticed the Amity Park Crystal is gone. "What have you done with the crystal?"

SpongeBob then jumped forward and karate kicked Traloc to the ground. "That's for messing with my friends!" SpongeBob pointed at Traloc knocked unconscious.

Jimmy spots Calamitous still using his mechanical suit to fight Darry, SpongeTron, and Danny. Jimmy grits his teeth and mutters to himself. "Let's just hope I can pull this off." He walks forward, but then grunts in pain when he notices his hands becoming more transparent than before. "And I better make it quick."

SpongeTron blasts with his sonic cannon that hit the arm of Calamitous suit. But Calamitous holds up the Retroville Crystal and SpongeTron suddenly glows blue. The robot's hands suddenly extend out and tie around him, trapping him.

"SpongeTron!" Darry cried when a small object whacks him on the head. "Hey!"

The object came from SpongeTron's slingshot that appeared from his hat. "Sorry!" he called out trying to get out of his own arms, "I…can't control my own body."

"That's the power of the Retroville Crystal," Calamitous explained, "The power of technokinesis. With it, I can control technology at every extend. Behold as Neutron's creation turns against you."

"I'm sorry, guys!" SpongeTron cried as he frees himself and his arm suddenly turned into his laser which he aimed at Danny. "Look out!"

As Danny dodged all of SpongeTron's blasts, Darry glared at Calamitous and shouted, "You're gonna pay for that!" and charged straight at him.

But suddenly, Jimmy rushed into Calamitous and began to take over his body. Calamitous struggled a bit until Jimmy finally took control as his eyes turn orange. "No! Wait!" Calamitous shouted to Darry.

But Darry still punched Calamitous in the face and knocked him and his robot suit to the ground. Darry stood on top of him, holding the Bikini Bottom Crystal. "If you like playing with crystals, I can show you what it was like using this one!" he shouted to the villain.

"Darry, stop." Calamitous insisted as he waved his hand. "It's me, Jimmy Neutron."

Darry froze before using the crystal. He raised a brow skeptically. "Yeah right. How am I sure you're Neutron?" he points at his body cradled in Cindy's arms, "He's over there!"

"Trust me on this. I am Neutron," Calamitous explained, handing Darry the Retroville Crystal. "Just take it. I have to return to my own body before I-" All of a sudden, Calamitous stands up, grunting in pain as he and Jimmy struggle for control.

The glowing orange crystal in Jimmy's palm began flash on and off as it glowed brightly. Cindy began shaking him as she asked, "Neutron, what's going on? Are you alright?" She kept shaking Jimmy, but he did not respond.

Darry watched as Calamitous's suit glowed orange and began to malfunction. Danny looked up at the glowing suit. "That glow," Danny noticed. His eyes widen upon realization. "Darry! That IS Neutron! He's using the power of the Pupununu Crystal."

"It's power is to take control of other people?" SpongeTron questioned.

"Sorta." Danny explained. "Your soul leaves your body, letting you wander around as an invisible spirit, also giving you the ability to take control of someone. However, if you're out of your body for too long, there's a chance you'll disappear."

"WHAT?!" Darry and SpongeTron screamed as they look at Calamitous attempting to retake his body from Neutron.

"Neutron must have possessed the others and took control of Calamitous," Danny guessed, "But that means he's maxing out its powers and running out of energy to fully possess him."

"Jimmy!" Darry shouted to Calamitous. "Forget about possessing him. Just get back to your body before it's too late!"

"Not before..." Calamitous said, handing the Retroville Crystal to Darry. "...giving this...to you." Darry stares at the blue crystal. He was about to take it from his hands until Calamitous closes it with his palm and holds it away.

"Never!" Calamitous yelled, "The Retroville Crystal is mine to command! I'll never give it to the likes of you!" But the orange glow engulfed him as Calamitous unwillingly hands Darry the blue crystal. "Darry, please take it…" Calamitous pleaded, but he yanks it away. "I won't let you interfere this time, Neutron!"

Timmy and his kids watch as Tak, SpongeBob, and 911 came. "We have to find a way to take the Retroville crystal back and separate them before it's too late," Tak cautioned.

"How are we gonna do that?" 911 asked, "Even 001 and the Fentons can't overpower Calamitous' mechanized suit. He's unbeatable!"

"Mechanized suit…" Tommy pondered thoughtfully. "Wait…even if it's powerful, it's still made of electronics and metal right?"

"Yes," 911 said with an annoyed look. "And that's the problem."

"No. Maybe not," Tammy said, realizing Tommy's plan. "Are you thinking what I'm thinking, little bro?"

"Yep," Tommy smirked, "Time for another science project." He goes to the fairies and takes Cosmo's wand. "I'm borrowing this."

"Hey!" Cosmo snapped at him.

Tammy came to 911 and opens his back, searching. 911 laughs, "Hey, that tickles."

"Got it!" Tammy smiled, yanking a small cord from 911. She hands it to Tommy who was holding the crown.

"Now all we need is a power source strong enough to handle Calamitous' suit," Tommy instructed as he wraps the wire tightly around the crown.

"But my power core isn't strong to endure that," 911 pointed.

"Maybe my staff will work," Tak suggested, "But I don't think it's powerful with him holding the Retroville crystal."

"Then, we're gonna have to use a power source that's just as powerful as the crystal," Timmy said figuring it out.

Meanwhile, Calamitous goes to his knees and hands Darry the blue crystal. "I don't think I can hold him any longer," Jimmy said in Calamitous' body, "Dar, take the crystal before it's too late." Darry was hesitant at first, but then quickly snatched the Retroville Crystal away.

"No!" Calamitous cried when he feels a slight sensation going through his robot body. He looks to see Tammy and Tommy holding a newly formed electromagnetic coil with the Dimmsdale Crystal as its power source.

Suddenly, Calamtious' suit becomes attracted to the magnet still glowing orange. Darry and Danny look at each other and nod. They turn intangible and fly into Calamitous' body. Immediately, Calamitous is sucked into the magnet as the Fentons managed to pull Jimmy's spirit out of its vessel.

Calamitous' body is pulled toward the Nicktoons as the Turners hold the magnet. "May I do the honors?" SpongeTron asked flying toward them and his right arm turns into a gigantic gorilla-like fist.

"Please." Tommy said to the robot with a smirk.

SpongeTron grinned as Calamitous heads toward them. With a WHAM, SpongeTron knocks out Calamitous' robot head out of his suit. Without him controlling the mecha or the crystal to power it, the suit falls into pieces.

"Wa-hoo!" SpongeTron cheered until he and 911 are sucked by the magnet. They glare at the twins.

"Sorry," Timmy said sheepishly and pulls out the Dimmsdale Crystal, cutting power from the cord that lets them go.

The rest of the gang ran up to Darry and Danny. "Did we get all of them?" Tak asked, holding up the Amity Park Crystal and Timmy holds up the Dimmsdale Crystal.

"Got them," Darry responded holding up the Retroville Crystal and Bikini Bottom Crystal. Then, he and his father hear groaning from Jimmy as he becomes more and more transparent. "Jimmy! He's in trouble!"

"Jimmy?" Tammy called out as she looked around. "Where is he? Is he okay?"

The rest looked confused unable to see Neutron as Darry and Danny stare at them. "I guess since we're both ghosts, we can see him," Darry guessed.

Jimmy stands up and says, "I need to get back to my body. I'm running out of time."

Darry and Danny nod and carry him to Cindy. Cindy looks up and the gang watches astoundingly as the two ghosts place his invisible spirit back in his own body. The crystal glows bright orange for a second, but stops as soon as Jimmy opens his eyes and sits up.

"Neutron?" Cindy asked him.

"Yeah, it's me," Jimmy said tiredly and turns to his teammates, "So we got them all?"

"Yes," Danny nodded as he and his team held out the crystals, "We retrieved every crystal from the Syndicate and 911's already got them in custody."

"And we couldn't have done it without them," Tak said pointing at Darry and his team.

Darry, Tommy, Tammy, and SpongeTron look at themselves proudly as Tommy rubbed the back of his head, "Aw…it was nothing."

"That's a relief," Jimmy said calmly until Cindy slapped him, knocking him off his feet, surprising everyone.

"What in the world were you doing, Neutron?!" Cindy screamed at his face, "You didn't move for awhile, you scared me to death!"

"Cindy?" Jimmy asked as he stood up, holding his cheek. "I had to do what I needed in order to stop the Syndicate. Though, I'm surprised you cared."

Cindy crossed his arms, turning her back on him. "Hmph! It's no surprise that you care more about stopping the Syndicate than even looking at your own injuries. That's all you ever care about. Working in your lab and saving the world is more important than our wedding!"

"Are you still holding a grudge against that?" Jimmy asked, "Cindy, you knew that we couldn't make it happen, especially since I'm a genius and the one responsible for the safety of Retroville. I couldn't put you in harm's way."

"So you thought breaking my heart was the only way?" Cindy cried out. "Ugh, you're such a clueless idiot! So I guess it's true that you never cared about me one bit!"

Jimmy glared at her and scoffs. "Maybe I never cared about you at all. I don't even know why we ever dated in the first place!"

"Maybe it's better if we never dated and remained as rivals," Cindy ranted on, "Besides, we're better off without each other. After all, I'm a successful world reporter with a great job and a better salary."

"I'm better off without you too!" Jimmy spat out, "I'm a genius, movie actor, and agent of both organizations which I'm also the leader/ founder in one of them!"

"I guess this means we'll be going our separate ways from now on!" Cindy growled, "Which I am fine with!"

"Me too!" Jimmy angrily agreed, "I'm fine with that!"

"Fine!"

"FINE!" They growled and glare at each other's face as the gang was watching the argument this entire time. Suddenly, Jimmy says, "Wanna kiss?"

"Okay," Cindy grinned and the two kissed, once again embracing their love for each other.

Darry, Tommy, Tammy, and SpongeTron look at the sudden romantic couple in confusion. One of the doors in open and the Nicktoon Cadets rush in and stop at what they see. "Eww…" Crash, Junior, and Twitchy both say in disgust.

"Is this what their love is like?" Darry questioned.

"You have no idea." Timmy answered, scratching the back of his head.

SpongeTron stared at Tammy, who was staring at Jimmy and Cindy embrace, and asked in concern, "Tammy, are you okay?"

"Okay?" Tammy asked in a frantic manner. "Of course I'm okay! I'm happy for the two of them. Doesn't that make me okay with that?!" she yelled suddenly at SpongeTron's face making the robot back a few inches from her.

The rest of the Nicktoons look at each other and smile, not only succeeding in finding the crystals and stopping the Syndicate, but finding Jimmy at long last with Cindy once again.

"And thus is the conclusion of the epic tale of the Five Crystals…" Darry narrated with everyone back in HQ. He just retold the tale to Tommy, Tammy, SpongeTron, Yuki, Crash, Twitchy, Junior, and Kida. "All thanks to the team of Tommy, Tammy, SpongeTron, and yours truly. After our adventure, The Five Crystals were sealed away safely in HQ and we learned that we don't need to depend on our abilities to be as great as our parents. But our leadership and teamwork is what makes us, and always will be, a great team."

"Yi-doggy!" Crash cheered as everyone clapped loudly after hearing the story. "That was even better the second time!"

"Yeah! I wish I was in an adventure like that!" Junior said, clapping.

"Uh…Junior? You WERE there in the little adventure, remember?" Kida reminded.

"So what happened with Neutron and Miss Cindy?" Twitchy asked, and then started rapidly asking, "Didtheyleaveeachotheragain!"

"Actually Twitch, don't you remember?" SpongeTron reminded, "We're actually gathered here for-"

"Psst guys! It's time! We gotta go!" Buster interrupted, creaking the door open and wearing a fancy tux. In fact, the Nicktoons and Cadets were all wearing tuxedos and dresses. They smile at each other and stand up to follow Buster in preparation for a special event.

Outside HQ, is a small wedding in front of the building. Everyone is gathered on a white bench. The bridal song is played once again on the organ by Libby Folfax whom she and Jimmy and Cindy's friends attended with more friends of the Nicktoons.

Goddard barked as Junior, the appointed ring bearer, is on top of him holding out a pillow with two rings on top. Behind him, Tammy was throwing small flowers in the air, scattering the petals on the walkway.

Junior goes up the steps to hand the best man, Carl Wheezer, the rings followed by Tammy. She looks to the front seats on the right side to the front of her seat to sit beside her brother and father along with the fairies. They sat beside SpongeTrons 001 and 911 with Tak and Kida. On the left side, Danny and his kids along with Sam are sitting beside SpongeBob and his family.

This time, a SpongeTron robot that was standing on a step-stool was acting as the priest to marry Jimmy and Cindy. "Dearly beloved, we are gathered today to celebrate the joining of this man and this woman in holy matrimony!"

Jimmy smiled at Cindy and was this time genuinely smiling in happiness as he was about to be married to his one true love. "Do you, Cynthia Aurora Vortex, take this man to be your husband?" the SpongeTron asked Cindy.

"I do," Cindy replied.

"And do you, James Isaac Neutron, take this woman to be your wife?"

Jimmy smiled, looking back at his team, at the kids, and turns to face Cindy with a genuine smile on his face. This time he says, "I do."

As soon as they put the golden rings on each finger, the ST-Unit announces, "I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride."

Cindy jumps onto Jimmy and plants a passionate kiss on his lips as everyone applauds. After which, Cindy throws her bouquet in the air. The bouquet flies up and falls into the hands of Yuki Fenton. She grins as she holds the flowers close, but Danny stares in worry.

Jimmy and Cindy hold each other by the arms and run across the hall. Tammy and Junior watch. "Isn't that romantic?" Junior asked her.

"Of course!" Tammy said, grimacing her teeth, "Why wouldn't I think that? Jimmy's FINALLY reacquainted with his true love. It makes me SOO happy to see the two them together!" she finished, ripping her flower basket in half, startling Junior and the mechanical dog.

The gang runs up to the newlyweds as Jimmy helps Cindy aboard his rocket. "Where are you going on your honeymoon?" Timmy asked them.

"We're heading to Venus!" Jimmy said, hopping in the rocket.

"Wouldn't it be easier to go somewhere like Hawaii or Paris?" Danny pointed out.

"Don't you know 'Venus' is named after the Roman goddess of love?" Jimmy informed, making Cindy giggle. He wraps his arms around her saying, "Besides, we have ALOT of catching up to do."

"Oh Nerdtron..." Cindy said as she stared at him with a warm smile. Soon, Jimmy ignites his rocket as he and Cindy blast off. Behind the vehicle are tin cans attached to the back with strings with a sign "Just Married." The Nicktoons wave goodbye as the two flies toward space.

"They really are a great couple." Tommy mentioned to his friends as they waved.

"Well, I guess that means there's gonna be big changes around here," Darry theorizes.

"Yeah," SpongeTron agreed. "New things will be awaiting us as experienced Nicktoons."

"With bigger adventures to come!" Tammy added.

"And more bad guy butt to kick!" Tommy said making karate stances.

"And no matter what we face, the four of us will always be able to face it." Darry added. "And win!"

"CAKE!" Twitchy yelled as they see the squirrel dive head first into the large wedding cake, splattering cake bits everywhere.

Bits of cake and frosting fell on the four Nicktoons. Tommy licks pieces of cake from his hands, but then gags. "Carrot cake? Who eats that stuff?"
