An Official Nym Net Fan Fiction, by Brandon C. Butler

TED-CHI GOES TO JAPAN!

"Heya' Nym, whatcha' doin'?" CodeRat asked.

Nym was doing something or another and CodeRat had just pulled off a 17 Hit Custom 
Combo on Street Fighter Alpha 2. It had taken him a while but he didn't mind because 
he was a little rodent and had nothing better to do.

Nym replied, "I'm looking for the address to Nintendo HQ in Japan. I want to sneak 
in and talk with Mr. Miyamoto."

CodeRat looked confused, which was normally Ted-chi's look, but CodeRat didn't think 
he'd mind him borrowing it.

Ted-chi was off watching anime and overheard Nym somehow.

"Hey Nym, you know Miyamoto lives in Japan, and you're going to need someone to talk 
Japanese, so I was wondering..."

Nym broke in, "Oh, of course, you can come. If you don't mind..."

Ted-chi looked excited, normally CodeRat's look, but he didn't think he'd mind if he 
borrowed it.

"Really!?!? Woohoo! Nihon gaming-time!" Ted-chi shouted.

"Shhhhh! Keep it down!" CodeRat said.

Ted-chi was too busy 'Woohoo-ing' to realize he was missing his anime's climax.

***

Uncle StoveTop woke up around 4:00 in the evening, about an hour before Nym was 
getting ready to go to Japan. He rubbed his eyes and opened the attic door.

"Morning UST!" said Nym.

"We're gonna go to Japan!!!" Ted-chi blurted out.

"Shhhhhut up!" CodeRat said.

UST looked tired. "Oh, okay. Goodnighhhhhh... DID YOU SAY JAPAN!?"

It was too late. UST burst into the attic and came back down in 5 seconds flat, complete 
with Hawaii Shirt, Gold Chain Necklaces, Sunglasses, and a suitcase stuffed with 15 
boxes of StoveTop Stuffing.

Everyone burst into laughter at this obviously funny scene, and UST blushed then quickly 
said, "Hey!"

***

During all this happy time Myn, who was currently a permanent resident of Macross City 
was trying to think of a way out. He was getting sick of hearing Minmei sing. He needed 
some real games (Myn likes lame games, but seems to see quality somewhere in them...). 
And most of all, he needed a change of underwear!

"That stupid fire head Nym!" Myn exclaimed. "I'll show him who's the king of coolness 
when I figure out a way out of here! He'll be sorry!" He seemed to be talking to himself 
as the camera panned out of Macross City...

***

"Chrono Trigger?" Nym said as he readied to check it off the list.

"Chrono Trigger, check!" Ted-chi said.

"PlayStation?"

"PlayStation, check!"

"Parappa Cap?"

"Parappa Ca... huh?"

Ted-chi stopped, and looked around... He didn't see it anywhere!

Nym repeated, "Parappa Cap?"

"Nope, uncheck!" Ted-chi said back sadly.

Nym was starting to get worried.

Just then, Nym's mom walked in with Tamagotchi. "Bee-beep! Bee-beep!" Tamagotchi beeped, 
followed by Nym's mom saying, "It's on your head, sweetie."

Everyone took a deep sigh of relief.

"Is that all?" Ted-chi asked.

"Yeah, that's all." Nym said.

"Woohoo!" said Ted-chi as he ran for the living room. (Robotech was coming on, you know!)

***

Myn looked up and noticed the sky turn a strange color. It turned white, then black, 
then flashed, and who was that!?

"It's that fire head Ted-chi!" Myn yelled.

Just then, Myn got a brilliant idea. An awful idea. Myn got a brilliant awful idea!

Suddenly, as if a cue for a plot twist, some smooth jazz started playing.

"What in the-" Myn said, "You moron writer, it supposed to be EVIL music!" The music 
changed after a halt to evil organ music.

"Ahhh, much better!" Myn said as a smile came across his evil face.

Now he knew what he could do to leave here!

***

Ted-chi was really getting into this anime for some reason. The others looked at him 
funny and he just kept laughing and jumping up from the couch jumping and kicking and 
puching with the action.

But, in reality, Ted-chi had been trapped in Macross City, by none other than Myn! He 
had swapped places with Ted-chi and he was now in Ted-chi's place trying to mimic what 
he thought Ted-chi was like. (Myn was not good at acting, but he was good at looking 
like anybody else.) It wasn't working very well though, because Nym walked over and gave 
Myn a funny look. But, Myn had to resist punching Nym "by accident" until his full scale 
plan went into effect.

"Would you cut that out!?" Nym said in frustration as Myn almost took out a ceiling fan 
with a high kick.

"What's it to you!?" Myn inquired.

"Well, you want to go to Japan, don't you?"

Myn hadn't known about this, but it was fitting well into his plan.

"Oh yeah, sorry. I'll be good." He said.

Nym wondered back into his room and looked at the others.

"Something's not right." Nym said.

CodeRat asked, "What is it, Nym?"

"Ted-chi isn't acting right... He didn't know about the Japan trip... that bothers me. 
But, if Myn is in Macross City, then how...?"

Just then, UST walked in and said with a mouth full of StoveTop with Black Olives, "WHAT'S 
UP GUYS!?! WANNA PLAY KIRBY SUPER STAR!?"

"SHHHHHHH!" They all replied.

"What'd I say?"

Nym said slowly, "Myn is here we think."

UST's brown StoveTop colored eyes heated with anger.

"LET ME AT EM! I'LL KILL EM! I'LL KILL THAT WHITE OLIVE PEDDLER!" UST yelled.

They all jumped UST.

"Quiet you fool!" They all said in a whisper.

***

Myn was starting to worry... Was his plan going to work? It had failed last time and the 
time before, and that other time and the time before that and... well, you get the idea. 
Basically, Myn was worried.

"This stupid anime! Why don't the bad guys just kill those robots!?" Myn yelled forgetting 
Ted-chi loved this show.

Just in time too, because Nym and the others came in to "talk" to Myn.

Myn turned his head just enough to see and dodge Nym's masamune "Nymedge".

Myn leapt out of the way, and was then hit in the face with a "running wheel" from 
CodeRat's cage!

Myn's world started to fade, (it was a heavy mouse wheel) and spin, but not before he heard 
UST say "Gotcha!"

***

It wasn't that Ted-chi didn't mind Macross City, he felt right at home, but on the inside, 
he though about missing Japan. Little blue sparkling anime-style tears welled up in his 
eyes and he burst into tears.

Just then, someone layed a hand on his shoulder.

***

"Nym! Guys! But, how...?" Ted-chi almost screamed with joy.

UST smiled a little smirk as he pulled Myn's frowning face out of a black bag.

"How did you do that, Myn? That was a dirty trick! I thought I'd never go to Japan!" he 
yelled.

Myn smiled, as he frequently does. "I knew you wanted to go to Japan, and I took my chance 
to keep you here. But, these other fire heads kept me from doing it."

Ted-chi pulled a book out from behind him.

"NOOOOOO! ANYTHING BUT THAT!" Myn screamed.

It was Spell for Chameleon, a funny fantasy book. (Myn hated quality, as if it were a bad 
thing.)

Ted-chi opened the book and held it out. Then Nym grabbed his masamune and motioned for Myn 
to touch the "linking window" in the book.

"Please no!" Myn yelled.

It was no use. He touched it.

Myn was gone. (For now, until we need an evil plot again.)

Ted-chi was excited... He ran back through the "Nym Gate" as the others had dubbed the 
gate that Nym created to go to the Macross City.

***

Everyone was excited, including CodeRat. (He would get to try some Japan game code cracking 
for a change!) They were all on the way to the airport, when Nym smacked him self on the 
forehead.

"I forgot the passports!" Nym yelled.

"Don't worry, I got it all covered..." UST said smoothly.

"What do you have in mind?" The others said.

"You shall see..." UST replied as they got out at the airport.

***

As they walked up to the counter, the clerk stopped them.

"May I see your passports?" He asked.

UST then opened his suitcase and pulled out a brown robe. He put it on.

"You don't need to see our passports..." He said in an odd voice.

"I don't need to see your passports..." The clerk replied.

"We can go on without them..."

"You can go on without them..."

"The rat doesn't have to ride in the luggage compartment."

"Your rat doesn't have to ride in the luggage compartment."

"Move along..."

"Move along. Move along."

UST pulled the robes hood down and said, "Wasn't that cool? I saw it in that Star Wars 
movie!"

They then ran down the aisle of the plane and found their seats. Ted-chi was so thrilled. 
He'd finally see Japan!


The End
(For now anyway.)
