A/N: Okay, this has got so many pairings that it may make your head explode. And I suck at my humor. -_- And yes, I am a Dexter/Blossom fan. (Blame Bleedman) Other pairings will include 3/4 and Buttercup/Ace. If you want anymore pairings or your character in the story, just tell me in a review.

ENJOY!


Who Knows?

Chapter 1: Dexter's Friend

"Bring the telescope that way! Yes! No! The other way! Oh for the love of… Don't put that paperwork over there! That's the lunch table; you'll get food crumbs all over all that work from Dexter! Ugh! Why in the world was I appointed this position again?"

"Because you're good at giving orders, Laina?" a worker asked.

"Ugh! It was a rhetorical question! I'm outta here!"

The pale blue haired girl stomped to the elevator, grumbling all the way. Her face was a sight to see. It was so red that she looked like a tomato. Some of the nearby workers turned to stare at her, but immediately went back to their work when they saw her glare. If looks could kill, they would have been ashes.

Laina took the elevator to the ground floor and ran outside; waving slightly to her best friend whose name was Katya. Her friend just looked on, suddenly feeling a wave of sympathy for Dexter. She knew what was coming next.

Laina sprinted to Dexlabs and entered the building. She took a deep breath before entering the genius's laboratory. She looked around and saw a Dexbot coming towards her. She rolled her eyes as she thought of what annoying thing the robot would say next.

"Hello, Dexter is currently busy right now-"

"I don't care if he's busy. I need to speak to him right now and I'm going to whether you like it or not!" Laina ran into Dexter's lab before the Dexbot could object.

"Dexter! I'm gonna kill you!" She ran up to a not so surprised Dexter and grabbed his collar. "You give me so many workers and none of them, and I mean none of them can do anything right! They ruin everything! They're messes! Nuisances! Utter nuisances! You don't look surprised! Why are you not surprised?! Why are you not cowering in fear?!"

Dexter adjusted his goggles back into place as Laina reluctantly let go of his collar to get her answer. As soon as he had gotten himself upright again, he dusted his coat off and cleared his throat. "One, I could hear you shouting at the Dexbot attendant. Two, you do this every second day at exactly 3:00pm and three… I don't have a three, but you see my point."

"Well it serves you right for giving me dumb workers! You deserve it!" Laina argued.

"That may be, but my visitor most certainly did not." Dexter's glance fell upon an area behind Laina. Laina turned around to look at what Dexter was looking at.

It was a boy about the same age as Laina. He had blonde hair that came down to just past his ears. He was wearing a black shirt with a white skull on the front and blue jeans. His shoes were ordinary black and white sneakers.

"Who's this?" Laina asked in a non-caring tone as she looked at her nails.

"This is Brydon. Laina, Brydon, Brydon, Laina. Brydon is a good friend of mine and he has come to consult me with the fight with Fuse. He wants to help us, and since you came in at such a convenient time, you can show him around," Dexter explained.

Laina turned to face the boy genius so fast that she almost lost her footing on the black and white checkered floor. "Nuh-uh Dorkster, there is no way I am showing anyone around here. I have a job to do!"

"Well, you were complaining about all your workers being an annoyance, so this is an opportunity to have a break from them for a little while." Dexter grinned with an evil spark in his eye as he saw the look of horror and defeat on Laina's face.

The girl sighed. "Fine, but I'm not gonna make a habit out of it."

"Okay, beware of monsters and fusions! Laina, I know what you're thinking, so don't do it!" Dexter exclaimed.

Laina's eyes narrowed. "You don't know what I was thinking."

"Ah, actually, yes I do. You were thinking of feeding Brydon to those Destroyusalls down at City Point," Dexter replied.

Laina folded her arms. "I wasn't going to feed him to them. I was just going to let them attack him. It doesn't worry me; I've got my sneak watch so I won't be seen by the monsters and I can just leave him."

"That is where you are wrong Laina. I have made another watch just like yours for Brydon so he can have exactly the same abilities as you. Oh, and one more thing. Brydon's your new work partner," Dexter told Laina, trying to hide his glee on the last part.

Laina, who was almost halfway out the door due to anger, hunched her shoulders and turned around quickly. "You are kidding Dorkster. There is no way I'm working with anyone, let alone one of your friends."

Dexter just grinned and pushed the two teens out the door. Laina was sick of arguing, so she let Dexter enjoy himself… While he still could of course. She'd go back for him later. She smirked as she thought about all the different ways she could torture the red haired genius. She started walking towards the entrance of Dexlabs, but was stopped by a voice.

"Hey, what about me?"

Laina turned around to stare at Brydon with her eyes narrowed. "What about you?"

"Uh, you're supposed to be showing me around, remember?"

Laina rolled her eyes, but then sighed. It was no use trying to ignore him. Besides, she needed to focus all her energy on getting around everywhere, not arguing with some guy she didn't even know. "Fine, let's go. We'll go to Sector V to start with. I need to speak to Blossom anyway."

"That's fine with me. From what I've heard Dexter has a soft spot for Blossom," said Brydon.

The pair walked out the doors of Dexlabs as Laina replied, "Yeah, he does, and vice versa."

"You sure know about the connections of this place," Brydon assumed.

"Well, when you stay in touch with people who know people who know other people, you will always have at least a basic idea of what the heck's going on here," Laina replied.

"Are you good friends with Blossom?" Brydon asked.

"Yep, pretty much. It's the same with her sister, Bubbles. Bubbles is probably Downtown helping the mayor with some important work as we speak. Of course, by important work I mean probably helping him do something with a jar of pickles."

Brydon laughed. "Hey, you aren't so tough after all."

Laina looked at him. "Nah, I save that for Dexter and my workers. They really tick me off sometimes. But the thing I probably save it for the most is Fuse and his minions. They're everywhere. You can never get a time alone without them attacking you. We don't have to worry about that though. We have these cool watches so we're practically invisible from those dumb head monsters."

Laina looked up and saw that they had arrived at the S.C.A.M.P.E.R. at last. She pulled out some taros and gave them to the KND operative. Brydon just stared at her as she did so.

"Uh, what's this going to do?" Brydon asked.

"You'll see," Laina answered.


A/N: Okay, there you go. Review! Remember, tell me if you want any other pairings or your character in the story. I'm sure I can fit them in somewhere.
