Kids Next Door: Agenda
Kids Next Door Moon Base
Observatory
4 July, 2005
00.02.00 Before Incident
Chad Dickson, eleven year old Supreme Leader of the Kids Next Door, stood watching the blue marble that was Earth from a viewport within the Moon Base. Chad's face reflected stress and age. The past few months Chad had faced and endured much, the weight of responsibility on his shoulders. Chad had also come face to face with a grim truth, not everyone in the KND was an ally. As seen Numbuh 11, a well-respected operative and personal friend , no one can be trusted.
"I want you to do better than me." Chad spoke those words solemnly. "That's what he said to me." Chad glanced to a nearby statue of Numbuh 100, his predecessor.
"Sir." Chad turned to see Numbuh 35, standing behind him. "It's time for your three o'clock appointment."
"Yes, the diplomats, I almost forgot." Chad nodded. "Best not keep them waiting. The faster we resolve this matter, the quicker peace between us kids and teens can be achieved."
"Remind me again why you want this on the 'hush' and 'hush' sir?" Numbuh 35 asked.
"Because I've risked too much and lost even more." Chad answered somberly. "Are the path ways clear?"
"Give me a sec" Numbuh 35 pulled a small brick-like device with a series of flashing lights. "Numbuh 78 and Sector X have cleared the way. You're ready to make your way to the conference room. The route is a straight shot. From here to there, in between are the offices, computer labs and decommissioning chambers."
"Thank you Numbuh 35." Chad straightened his outfit. "Let's move."
00.05.36 Before Incident
"I see your walking better." Rachel T. McKenzie, the famed Numbuh 362 of the Spy Sector, smiled at her colleague, Numbuh C4.
Numbuh C4 hobbled over to Rachel, the red head wincing slightly at the nagging pang of pain in her knee. "I walking. That's all that counts." Numbuh C4 smirked and gestured to her padded left leg. "The doctor doesn't want me to put too much stress on it, but, eh. I have to if I want to keep up with you."
"Fanny said she'll meet us up at the Computer Lab. She's running late again."
00.37.27 Before Incident
A C.O.O.L.B.U.S. owned by Sector Q landed within the Moon Base. The doors opened and the members of the Sector piled out.
"No matter how many times we come here, the Moon Base never ceases to amaze me." Numbuh 99 smiled, fondly looking out to the crowds of operatives running about on business of their own.
"Alright, if I can get your attention team." Numbuh 416, Dylan Buchanan, the twelve year old Sector Leader called out to his team. "You all remember where we're meeting up later, right guys?"
"At the computer lab." The other five members of Sector Q, consisting of Numbuh 57, Numbuh 58, Numbuh 59, Numbuh 99, and Numbuh 2030 spoke dryly in unison.
"Why do we always have to meet in the computer lab?" Numbuh 58, Gwen Tucker, the resident Sector Q pilot asked as she tucked her helmet under her arm.
"Because I'd rather have you all meet me rather than I have to go and search for you lot." Numbuh 416 said before walking off.
The remaining five operatives stood by the C.O.O.L.B.U.S. "So, I'm just going to be off then." Numbuh 57, Cassandra Adams, the Sector Q 2x4 Specialist said, gesturing to a direction with her thumb.
"Where to?" Numbuh 2030, Nolan York, the other Sector Q 2x4 Specialist asked, hoping to tag along with his best friend.
"Upper decks. I'm actually here to see someone." Numbuh 57 blushed slightly.
"Oo. Do tell." Numbuh 99 slyly stated.
"Shut it man…" Numbuh 57's brows furrowed as she frowned at her teammate.
Numbuh 57 walked off, leaving her team behind. A sudden audible grumble erupted from the remaining operatives. All eyes turned to Numbuh 99, whose hands found his belly demanding substance. "Yeah…I'll be at the cafeteria if you need me guys." Numbuh 99, Garret O'Neal, smiled before running off on his own.
"So. What will the three of us great friends be up to today?" Numbuh 58 shouted gleefully, throwing an arm around Numbuh 59. She shot a glance at Numbuh 2030 who nodded in acknowledgement.
"Oh. I forgot. I promised Numbuh 49 I'd help out with stuff at the Observatory." Numbuh 2030 'recalled'. "I guess I'll leave you two to not get in trouble and stuff. Have fun!" With that Numbuh 2030 hurriedly ran off.
Numbuh 59, Doug Murphy, the resident co-pilot and all around Sector Q Brawler, scratched his chin. "…Did he seem off to you?"
"No." Numbuh 58 changed the subject. "How about we head over to the Computer Lab? Play some video games? That sounds fun, right?"
Numbuh 59 raised a brow. "Um…okay?"
"Great!"
00.05.16 Before Incident
Numbuh 78, Angelie Lemange, Sector Leader of Sector X, watched as her team began discreetly blocking off the hallway between the Observatory and the Conference Room.
Angelie watched as her team's "muscle", Numbuh 34, acted the big strong brute to some newer operatives playing Yipper in the halls. Numbuh 34 chuckled to himself as the younger operatives ran away screaming from the much bulkier operative.
"Man. It's a good thing I'm with the KND." Numbuh 34 exclaimed proudly.
"What do you mean Charles?" Numbuh 42, asked Numbuh 34, Charles, as he began placing caution tape and 'Do Not Go' signs in between corridors leading into the hall.
"Come on. Look at me." Numbuh 34 gestured to himself. "I'd have made one scary bully!"
"I concur." Numbuh 42 admitted. The 2x4 Specialist turned to Numbuh 78, giving her the thumbs up. "Area secured ma'am, ready to go."
"I'll call it in." Numbuh 78 removed a P.I.P.E.R. from her pocket. "Numbuh 78 to Numbuh 35. Bartie. The path is clear. Give the Boss Man the Green to proceed."
00.04.56 Before Incident
"-and then after Job had suffered all of these things, he stuck to his beliefs and prevailed against The Devil. The Lord above rewarded Job for his loyalty, giving him twice what he once lost." Numbuh 3:16, the resident Biblical Advisor of the Kids Next Door preached to a certain bald kid with sunglasses.
"I just asked where the Computer Lab was." An annoyed Numbuh 1 of Sector V shook his head. "I didn't ask for Sunday School."
"Oh…yes…the lab…" Numbuh 3:16 frowned, particularly on the word 'lab'. "I suppose I can show you the way. Please, follow me."
"…I'd rather you just give me directions…"
00.02.59 Before Incident
"Justin, Justin Cavallero." He himself extended his hand. "Teen Diplomatic Corps."
"Infinity. Numbuh Infinity." A tux wearing, sunglass sporting operative shook Cavallero's extended hand. "KND Diplomat. 'The' KND Diplomat."
"I assume I should be flattered, but sadly I am not." Cavallero admitted. "I mean no disrespect, but there has never before been diplomatic relations between us Teenagers and you Kids Next Door."
"That is the past." Numbuh Infinity glanced over Cavallero's shoulder, noting the three heavily armed Teenagers acting as the diplomat's bodyguards. "Today we look to the future. Please, if you would, follow me. Supreme Leader Numbuh 274 will meet with us soon."
"Then lead the way."
00.09.20 Before Incident
"It will go down soon." A decorated operative with blonde hair and the number 501 painted onto her red jersey took a sip from a tea cup. She placed the cup onto its respective plate and glanced across the desk before her to a darkly dressed boy.
"We have our orders." Numbuh 206, the Head of the Spy Sector smirked.
00.01.21 Before Incident
Numbuh 86, a simple nurse in the grand machine that was the Kids Next Door raced through the multitude of complex halls that made up the gut of the Moon Base. "Out of the way!" She shouted, pushing aside an operative wearing bicyclist gear.
00.00.19 Before Incident
Seated firmly behind a multitude of video screens, Numbuh 398 and 116 watched from cameras located throughout the Moon Base. There will be no crime committed on their watch.
Suddenly, the bright screens showing real time shut off.
Numbuh 398 turned to Numbuh 116. "I don't suppose this is a technical glitch."
Numbuh 116 shook her head grimly.
00.01.00 Before Incident
Numbuh 274 walked slowly through the empty hall. Ahead of him held new possibilities. He could only imagine a world peace between both the KND and Teens. But now, now imagination held the possibility to become reality.
00.00.30 Before Incident
Numbuh 274 walked passed the Computer Lab, all those within glanced through a glass window, watching the Supreme Leader.
00.00.10 Before Incident
"Wait, say that again Numbuh 116?" Numbuh 35 asked anxiously into his P.I.P.E.R.
The Incident
Before Chad could react, a sudden force and searing heat smashed against him. Debris scattered every which way, smashing into the interior of the hallway. Chad felt all air leave his body as he rolled away from a battered metal wall. The Supreme Leader lay eyes wide open as he clutched his chest. His ears rang with a whine.
Chad groaned as those in the Computer Lab rushed out to discover their leader on the floor.
"Get A Doctor! Someone Get A Doctor!" Numbuh 416 shouted.
Medical crews made it to the scene soon, moving Chad onto a stretcher and carting him off.
Numbuh 501, the Head of Decommissioning ran out of the nearby Decommissioning Chamber with her team. "Lock it down! Everyone on this floor, quarantine them away from the rest of the Moon Base!"
"Wait what? You can't do this!" Numbuh 362 pushed passed Numbuh 58 and Numbuh 59.
"Yes. I can." Numbuh 501 glared at Rachel. "This is attempted murder. Indefinitely, the Moon Base is on lockdown. No one leaves."
"There's an Assassin on The Moon Base."
Now, you must be wondering why it's a Numbuh 60 and Numbuh 86 story? Well, we're getting to that. In this chapter I alluded to Fanny's involvement and we'll get to Patton in the next chapter. Again, I hope you enjoyed this chapter, leave a review if you want to or not, up to you.
