Here we go, first chapter of my fic. :D I'm sure you'll get the general idea of the story.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Codename: Kids Next Door ©Mr. Warburton. I also do not own blue plaid loafers or a giraffe named Jeraldo.
And on with the story! :D
"Now don't forget to water the plants every day,"
"Got it, Mom."
"And give Joey his medicine; or else that cold will never get better!"
"Okay, Mom."
"And don't open the door to strangers… or, or answer the phone to any numbers you don't recognize!"
"Mom!" Mrs. Beetles looked at her son. "I've got it," Wally said. She smiled. "I know. I'm just so worried, leaving my fourteen year old here alone for a whole week? Are you sure you don't want us to stay?" He closed her suitcase. "Don't worry, Mom. I've got it all under control. You and Dad just go on your cruise! I have Mr. and Mrs. Uno about a block away, not to mention Numbuh 2's- er, I mean, Hoagie's parents, just down the street." Mrs. Beetles thought a minute. "And the Sanbans a few blocks over." Wally's face reddened. "Yeah. Them too."
The Beetles walked out of the house to the taxi on the street. "Be good, my little wombat!" Mrs. Beetles kissed Wally's forehead. He winced, but looked up and smiled. "Love you, Mom." Mr. Beetles put a hand on his shoulder. "I need you to be the man of the house, son! Love ya!" Wally put a hand on his Dad's arm. "Love ya, too, Dad." Wally watched as his parents climbed in the cab, waved, and drove away.
As soon as they turned the corner, Wally jumped up. "Yeah! House to myself for a whole week!" He hummed a rock tune as he went inside.
Hmmmm, shorter than it looked on Microsoft Word. :/ Ah, well. Introductory Chapters usually are.
Read on, child... read on... :D
