G.O.O.D vs. E.V.I.L #4

"Code of Silence"

The country of France is one with a rich history. Little did the denizens know that they would soon play host to a battle of good vs. evil of monumental proportions.

"Are you sure about this?" Father asked Jack Spicer.

"Look, I just do what Vilgax says okay?" Jack replied "he frightens me."

"Your own shadow frightens you" Vexus replied "ugh, how did I get stuck working with these incompetent fleshlings?"

"We're not all incompetent, my dear" Dr. Eggman replied "and if Vilgax is correct, soon the world will be ours."

"I'd like to know how Vilgax learned about this computer" Father said.

"His master computer received an anonymous e-mail, talking about a powerful supercomputer hidden somewhere in a warehouse in France" Jack explained "it even mentioned some school, and some kids who may know more about it."

"I don't like it" Father said, "that's way too much information. How do we know whoever sent the e-mail isn't trying to lure us into a trap?"

"If someone is attempting to trap us, I assure you, said person shall pay" Eggman replied "however, we cannot take the chance that the lead is false. Therefore, we'll make our first move; heading to this Kadic Academy, and locating someone who knows about this computer."

"And when we find it, we'll take it over and use its' power to control the entire world's communications" Vexus added.

"And the best thing is, those G.O.O.D fools will never figure out what we're up to" Eggman added.

If only the roly-poly ruffian knew that, at that moment, a jet containing members of G.O.O.D was on its' way to France.

"I've always wanted to visit France" Ben commented, as he peered out the window "it is the home of French fries, after all."

"Actually, I'm pretty sure they make those in America" Ron explained "they just call them French fries for some reason."

"Oh well, at least I can see the Eiffel Tower and all that cool stuff" Ben added.

"So does anybody know why we're headed here?" Raimundo asked.

"Beats me. Apparently, some ex-Plumber that lives here said he saw some suspicious activity and phoned it in" Danny explained.

"How much you wanna bet it's Vilgax and his buddies" Rai asked.

"I'd say that's a safe bet" Danny replied "the question is, what are they doing here?"

"That's what we're here to learn, isn't it?" said a familiar British voice.

"Oh, you can talk" Rai said "I wasn't sure, since you haven't said anything to us the whole trip."

"I've been contemplating things" Numbah One explained "and I don't share my thoughts with teenagers!"

"Dude, you got a problem, and you'd better deal with it!" Rai snapped back.

"Or what? I'm on to you teen!"

"Okay, okay settle down" Danny said, getting in between the two "look, Numbah One, is it? We're a team now, and I don't really understand much about your Kids Next Door group, or their problems with teens, but Rai and I are different. So could you learn to trust us, for the sake of the mission?"

"Very well, but this doesn't change anything" Numbah One replied "once the mission is over, don't expect to see me very much."

"That's okay, I don't like you all that much anyway" Rai replied.

The jet soon landed at a nearby airport, and our heroes decided to view the sights while they searched for the villains.

"Wow, the Eiffel Tower" Danny said, awestruck "you can't really appreciate it until you see it up close."

"I'm gonna take a picture" Ben added "Gwen will want one."

"Why isn't your cousin here again?" Ron asked.

"Ever since she founded her little group, she's been really busy with that" Ben added "doesn't bother me though; less of her is a good thing."

"Hey, I wonder if they have Bueno Nacho in France?" Ron said "although here it's probably called 'Le Bueno Nacho' or something. Hey, you know what they call a grande sized chimerito in Paris?"

"I don't even think they serve Mexican food in France" Rai replied.

"They have to have some kind of American food though right?" Ron asked.

"I hope so, I don't think I can survive without a hamburger" Ben said.

"Royale with cheese" Rufus added, popping out of Ron's pocket.

"Forget about fast food for a moment and let's focus here" Numbah One said "I talked to the KND operatives in this sector, and they told me they saw someone matching Jack Spicer's description at this location" he added, pulling a map out of his shirt and pointing to a spot.

"You really need a more detailed map dude" Ron said, "I can't see what you're pointing at."

"The place in question is called Kadic Academy" Numbah One explained "reports say it's a boarding school that houses all types of students."

"Why would Vilgax be interested in a boarding school?" Danny asked.

"Why indeed" Numbah One replied "that is what we need to find out."

"Are you sure your local Kids Next Door operatives can't find it out for you?" Rai asked jokingly "they seem to know everything else."

"You're lucky I even used KND resources to help you crummy teens!" Numbah One replied angrily "if they found out the true purpose of this mission, I could be in big trouble!"

"Calm down" Danny replied "Okay, we need to get ourselves in that school but how?"

"I got this one covered" Ben said, "it's a good thing I have a grandpa with government connections."
