Disclaimer; I do not own Wild Kratts. Or Kate who belongs to WildKrattsSuperFan1.
It was a warm summers day, and it was a little past noon. The skies in the distance, showed rain that would come once night hit.
The Tortuga -HQ and home of the Wild Kratts team- sat nicely in a clearing of a large forest. The Kratts were in Austria, currently observing the Kingfisher bird.
Though, at the moment, the Kratt brothers were playing badminton with Aviva, Koki, Kitty(Laura), and Kate. The only ones who weren't playing, were Survivor the lion, and Jimmy Z.
Survivor didn't play, mainly because he was a lion, and it was slightly impossible for him to play.
JZ on the other hand, was just more in the mood for playing video games, then to come outside.
Jimmy currently sat in his chair in the main control room, playing around with his controller, trying to figure out how to beat his latest high (and I mean HIGH) score.
As he was about to finish his level, a beeping sound came from the computer, and the large screen that took up most of one of the walls, was blinking.
JZ sighed, and saved his game, before turning it off and checking what was going on. The beeping sound, was an incoming message, though it was more like a voice mail...
He clicked a few buttons and opened the file, and his eyes widened upon seeing who it was.
"I'm... gonna... win!" Kate, the six year old girl, was able to make out as she swung her racket, hitting the birdie. She was in the middle of the badminton game, against Kitty.
"No... you're... not!" Kitty Carlo laughed back, hitting the birdie with her own racket. The birdie flew over the net, at a quickening speed; but Kate was prepared.
Kate swung her racket, and hit the birdie back, to quick for Kitty to strike back. Kate had won!
"Or... maybe you will..." Kitty said blinking, looking to the birdie which had scored the final point.
"I've learned from the best." Kate said with a grin, looking back to Aviva, who was cheering along with Koki, and the bros.
"Nice try though, Kit." Chris said, as he took the racket from the blond girl.
Kitty laughed, "Losing to a six year old... one of the weirdest things that's ever happened to me..."
Chris smirked, "Well, Kate's not going to be so lucky when she's playing with me..." he said, as it was his turn.
Kate giggled, "Says you!"
"GUYS! EVERYONE! AHHHHHHHHHH!"
Everyone blinked, and looked over to the gang plank that came out of the Tortuga's door. Jimmy was shouting in panic or excitement, as he ran, then tripped, then ran over to them.
"What? What?" Martin asked quickly, wondering what was wrong.
"We just got an email!" JZ squealed out, trying to catch his breath.
"Okay, we'll read it later." Aviva started, "We're in the middle of a game here, J-"
"NO! You guys don't understand!" Jimmy said, practically jumping up and down. Survivor was watching JZ with curiosity; Surv knew that Jimmy usually only got this excited when there was a pizza involved.
"Apparently we don't." Koki said, slightly annoyed, "So tell us what's so important about this email, already..."
"IT'S FROM THE PRESIDENT!" Jimmy shouted.
"WHAT?" Everyone screamed and dropped what they were doing, and ran into the Tortuga to see this for themselves. Jimmy followed.
Aviva opened the files again, as everyone surrounded her, looking at the large screen. Sure enough, a voice mail/email was there... from the president.
"Martin and Christopher Kratt," he started, "I need to speak with you... something has come up and you need to come to DC immediately."
'There has been some suspicions about your current rivals; Gaston Gourmand, Donita Donata, and Zachary Varmitech. We need to discuss them as soon as you get here.'
'We have also reached words you have a scientist with you. Aviva Corcovado. Apparently she is a Stephen Hawkings of our time...'
Aviva smiled; it was nice to be recognized.
'And, we have also found out you have a shape shifter among you, Laura Wilkinson-'
Everyone glanced at Kitty.
'The scientists of NASA have become suspicious of her, and wish to run tests...'
Kitty huffed. Why was it always people wanting to do tests on her? Why couldn't they ever just appreciate her powers, just as they were?
'I suggest you Kratts bring both Aviva and Laura with you. As well as Koki Cambrick and Jim Zantel (A/N; I know, I know... totally made those last names up! XD). Bring no one more, no one less. And again, I shall repeat; get here quickly.'
And the message ended, and the screen resumed it's normal home page.
Everyone's mouth hung open a little. Was this really happening? The president really wanted to see THEM? This was to good for words.
"This is so cool!" Kate started, jumping up and down, "No! This is better then cool! This is AMAZING! No, it's-"
"Kathrine... wait-" Aviva started, also very excited but realizing something else.
Kate just kept going, "Just imagine! Meeting the president! I'm going to have him sign my journal! And my forehead! And-"
"Kate!" Aviva raised her voice a little, and Kate froze and looked up at her. Aviva sighed, "Mi'ha... you can't come with us..."
Kate blinked, "But... why not?" her voice edging on sadness and disappointment.
"Because President Dainen(A/N; again... making up names here XD) said we could only bring Chris, Martin, JZ, Koki, Kit and myself..."
"But... but..." Kate felt left out honestly. I mean, who wouldn't? Finally, though, after a bit of pouting, she decided in her mind it would be for the best, "...ok..." she mumbled out.
Chris put a hand on Kate's shoulder, "We're sorry. We'd bring you if we could..."
"Wait..." Martin started, a thought hitting him, "Who's going to watch Kate if we're all gone? It's not like Survivor can..." his glance trailing over to the lion.
Koki blinked, "That's a good point... we just had a Zach attack on the Tortuga last week... and Kate isn't safe with that weirdo on the loose..."
As the group talked it over, Kate reached over and pet Survivor's ear and whispered, "Well... at least we'll be together..."
Survivor understood, and licked her hand gently and hummed.
"You know..." Kitty started finally, "I think I know the perfect person to watch her..."
Brushing the sweat, and reddish brown hair from his eyes, Donte Wilkinson sighed at finally finishing loading all the stacks of hay into the pickup truck.
It had been a normal morning, with the same routine... until he heard a sound of engines powering up above him.
Donte's eyes widened as he quickly backed up, as the Tortuga landed right on the dirt road that lead up to the farm house.
Donte was half expecting aliens or something, until he remembered it was what his sister's new home was. So, he wasn't surprised when he saw Kitty walking out of the door down the gang plank towards him.
"Sure are dressed up for a visit, sis..." he said, with a crooked grin.
Kitty laughed slightly, "What, this?" she motioned down to her blue dress that went down to her knees, and her pale grey jacket. Her hair was also up in a curly bun, "This is for the visit to the White House..."
Don blinked, "The what now?" he shook his head as if he heard wrong, "Did you say the White House?"
"Yes, I did. But that's not why I'm here; I need you to babysit for me."
Donte gave her a questioning look, "And you had kids, when?"
Kit giggled, "She's not mine, but none the less I need you to watch her for us." and she added, "Also I need you to watch Surv, my lion."
He sighed, "You know I don't like kids much, right? I'm not even sure how-"
"Great!" she said without letting him finish, "We'll be back in two days!" she then turned to the door, "C'mon Kate! Survy!"
Kate poked her head out of the door, pulling a small pink suitcase behind her as she headed down.
"Love you Mi'ha!" Aviva called after her.
"See ya Kate!" Chris said with a wave. Survivor pranced out after Kate, already familiar with the sights and smells of the Wilkinson farm.
Kate finally was standing right in front of Donte, Kitty beside her. Kate blinked and looked up into the pale blue eyes of the man that was going to watch her... he was tall... and strong looking. Slightly intimidating to a six year old.
She swallowed hard, and looked over to Kit, Kate's eyes almost pleading not to leave her there.
Kitty sighed and leaned down to hug Kate, "We'll be back in two days, 'kay?"
Kate nodded and hugged her back, "See ya Auntie Kitty..."
Kit finally released the hug, and headed back up the gang plank. Donte called after her with a laugh, "Don't forget to tell Marty I said hi!"
"IT'S MARTIN!" Martin's voice came yelling out of the Tortuga.
When the Tortuga finally took off, there was a silence between Kate and Donte. They both slowly looked at each other.
"I-I'm Kathrine..." Kate said slowly.
"Donte." Don answered, going back to the pickup truck.
"Wait! Where are you going?"
"I gotta drop this stuff off. I suggest you go inside the house and make yourself comfortable... or somethin'. Just tell Olive why you're here and so on..." his voice trailed off as he hopped in the truck, and drove off down the dirt road.
Kate exchanged glances with Survivor; Donte would take some getting use to...
She turned around to see a large house of in the distance, up the dirt road and up a hill. First thought Kate had was that Donte was a terrible babysitter to leave her out in the open, in the middle of nowhere.
She looked around. Kate really was in the middle of nowhere; it was just endless country, filled with fields and crops. There was a forest with black trees that covered the opposite side of the road, but Kate didn't pay much attention to it.
Kate dragged her movable suitcase behind as she started up the road. It wasn't very long before she notice a group of horses in a fence nearby.
Okay, maybe the sitter was lame. But the sights were cool!
Survivor raced ahead to the front door of the house, and started scratching at the door. Suddenly though, there was barking, and a sheep dog that was brown and white ran up to the lion.
That was new, Survivor thought. Last time the lion was here, there were no dogs.
But the sheep dog seemed nice and playful, as it ran around him, then ran over to Kate. Kate pet the dog once or twice, before pulling her bag up the stairs onto the porch, and knocking.
And that's that! ^^ The first chapter! *sighs in relief* Now to get to the second chapter...
Hoped you liked it! Please review! Need the reviews! NEED THEM!
