The puppet dances on his strings

Disclaimer- I do not own Kids Next door

Father

I control him. His every move is dictated by me. With every battle, he brings them closer to me, and still they follow him. They don't even realize that they are being led right in to my clutches. The fools. He and he alone knows the plan, and he does not realize the full plan. They will all die, despite what I said. Die or become puppets. All they are is snot nosed kids. They would never dare defy me, especially when they realize their leader has already bowed to me.

One more battle, one more move, they are right where I want them. "Tonight, we move for the attack. Take no prisoners. If they bow, they help fight. If they don't bow or if they don't help fight the rest, they die," I tell the delightful children. Poor, misguided Nigel. He played right into my hand. He would deliver the Kids Next Door to me, if Abigail could still live. I told him yes and he believed me. She will be the first to die of many. She will never give in. The first to fight back, the first to die.

The moonbase is shutting down for the night. It is the time to attack. "Uno, get up. We move now," I tell the leader. He gets up and leaves the tree house, walking down to my mansion.

Abby

What is that fool doing, leaving this late? He is an open target. I climb out of bed to follow him. He goes into the delightful children mansion. I slip in behind him, the hairs on the back of my neck standing up. I follow him into a room, where we come face to face with Father. I stay up in the rafters, waiting to see what happens. Nigel bows to our archenemy. What is he doing? He is a traitor, and as much as it hurts, I have to do this. I brought the ray gun with me. I aim at the most important person in my life, and prepare to fire the shot. Father nods to the left, and Nigel turns around, aiming his weapon. When he sees it is me, he lowers the weapon. Father misses not a beat, grabbing Nigel's ray gun and firing at me. It hits me right in the chest, surely a fatal shot. I fall from the rafters in to Nigel's arms. My vision is blurry and my breathing shallow. "Abby? Abby, can you hear me?" Nigel's concerned voice reaches my ears.

"Why, Nigel? You gave up everything… for this?" I say, in between breaths.

"I wanted to be with you, Abby. I did it so you would be spared," he answered.

"Nigel, I, I love you," I say.

"Abby, I love you too," Nigel says. I close my eyes for the last time.

Nigel

Abby closes her eyes, and her breathing stops. She is still in my arms. Tears run down my face and I turn to Father, the evil in red. "You will pay!" I said. I had brought two ray guns. As I pull out the other, Father fires the other, hitting me in the leg. I fire at him, and knock his ray gun from his grasp. He grabs it back up, and fires again, this time into my back. The blast knocks me unconscious.

Father

The fool tried to fight back. He is out of the way now. I call my children and send them to the moonbase to obliterate.

Nigel

He actually thought he had killed me. It takes more than that to take me down. I craw to the chair and pull myself up. As soon as I am steady, I leave the room with one objective. To find and kill Father. I find the control room and see him inside. I open the door and aim at him. Just as I fire, he fires. Our shots barely miss and hit the other in the heart. I see Father drop as I drop. In the last few seconds, I am happy. I realize I will see Abby again.

Delightful Children

Their deaths did no good. We took moonbase and soon after the rest of the KNDorks fell. The delightful empire is unstoppable!
