Hey guys! I've decided to completely redo this story. So... yeah! I promise the chapters will be longer this time!
October 24th should have been a normal day for fifth-grader Wallabee "Wally" Beatles, AKA Numbuh 4 of the Kids Next Door.
Wally woke up as usual, but for some reason he was just so tired. He hadn't stayed up late the night before or anything, but he thought nothing of it. But when he rolled out of bed, he felt so weak that he couldn't stand up. He eventually pulled himself up and carefully walked downstairs to the kitchen.
"Good morning," his mom said.
"Morning," Wally mumbled. He sat down at his usual spot at the table and coughed a little bit.
"Are you feeling sick?" Wally nodded as his mom put her hand on his forehead. "You're running a fever. Drink some water."
He reached out for the glass, accidentally hitting the table with his arm. It hurt more than it should have. "Ow!" he hissed, grabbing his arm. It was definitely going to leave a bruise, even though he didn't hit it that hard.
"Maybe you should stay home from school today," his mom suggested. She had seen the whole thing and was getting worried. "I'm going to take Joey to preschool. Will you be okay by yourself?"
Wally nodded. "I'll just watch TV in the living room."
"Call me if you have any problems." His mom took his three-year-old brother outside, leaving Wally. She would be back in about half an hour.
Wally quickly abandoned his breakfast, as he wasn't hungry at all. He slowly walked to the living room and lay down on the couch, hoping to get some more sleep, but he couldn't because everything hurt. So he watched the news on TV until his mom came back.
"Feeling any better?" she asked him.
He shook his head. "But I feel like I'm going to puke." Wally got up and walked to the bathroom, where he did just that. When he came back, he collapsed on the couch again.
"Everything hurts," he whined.
"Take some Tylenol." He did, but it didn't help much.
After an hour, he had thrown up 5 times, and the pain was getting worse. His mom had no choice but to take him to the doctor.
Sorry if he's a bit OOC. I haven't seen KND for a reaaaaally long time, unfortunately. That was pretty short (still longer than before)... I've taken up a habit of thinking that chapters are pointless and stopped doing them.
