Chapter One: A Brand New ChapterNigel Uno looked at the building towering in front of him. This was the new K.N.D. moon base; only it wasn't on the moon. At 23 years old he had to wonder what in the world he was doing standing in front of a building like this.
But...for almost thirteen years of his life it had been his home.
Taking a deep breath he grabbed the hand of his fiancée, Lizzie, and began to walk towards the door.
Sensing his nervousness Lizzie tried to calm him down. "Don't worry Niggie," He cringed at the nickname, "This is a simple reunion. We'll be going to our high school one soon."
Nigel nodded and kept staring at the doors looming ahead. "I know it's just that...well I haven't seen any of these people in a long time. I wonder how much Numbuh's 2, 3, and 4 have changed?"
Lizzie nodded wondering herself. She had liked all of her fiance's little friends. Except for that horrible number 5. Just thinking about the girl made Lizzie's blood boil. But they wouldn't even be seeing her tonight. She was a ghost in the past she couldn't remember.
She smiled sweetly as Nigel held the door open for her. She failed to notice his exasperated look.
Nigel hated being Lizzie's fiancé. But everyone had expected them to grow up, get married and have a wonderful family. And he was never one to let people down.
But I did...I let her down...
Shaking the thought from his head Nigel made a silent promise to himself that he would enjoy this blast to the past regardless of annoying fiancés or miserable memories.
With that thought in mind Nigel Uno walked into the building and to what would become a brand new chapter of his life.

Kuki stood by the punch bowl bored beyond belief. Where had her husband gone! He was supposed to be enjoying this with her. After all this was their childhood. Right on cue Wally walked up and put an arm around her shoulder.
"Sorry 'bout that. 'Ah was looking for any of our old friends."
"Did you find them?" The Japanese girl and become calmer over the years but she was still a little girl at heart. Her hair was now half way down her waist and for tonight she had it up in an elegant knot. Not to mention wearing a nice light blue Chinese style dress.
"Nope. Not a one." Wally hadn't changed much either. He wasn't quite so quick to fight as he had been when he was younger but the heart of fighter still beat within him. He was wearing a simple black tux for the occasion.
"Do you think we'll see-"
"No."
She sighed and looked at the ground. "We never see her anymore."
"She don't even know who we are."
"She...she...might remember."
Wally could hear the tears in her voice. Knowing this was a touchy subject for his wife he quickly changed the subject.
"Hey look! It's Numbuh 1! And he's with...Lizzie." The last word came out with a disappointed tone attached.
Kuki's head, however, snapped up and her face brightened. "Really?!"
He nodded and pointed to the door. Kuki turned and cocked her head to one side.
"Why's he with Lizzie?"
Wally simply shrugged his shoulders and the paired made their way over to the couple.

"Numbuh 1!" Nigel lifted his head at the sound of his old codename. He searched the room until he saw someone that looked like an older version of Numbuh 4 walk toward him.
"Numbuh 1! How ya been?"
Nigel smiled. "Good to see you Numbuh 4. Have you seen anyone else from our old team."
Wally's smile got slightly larger and he stepped aside to reveal Kuki. She smiled. "Hi Numbuh 1!"
Nigel looked at her, wide eyes hidden behind those sunglasses he still wore. She sounded so much older. "Numbuh 4!"
He eyed the ring around her left finger suspiciously before turning to Wally to see a matching ring on his left hand.
"You got married!" He scooped them up into a hug before either one could re act.
When he let them go they were both blushing. "Yeah, uh, we just got married a year ago but we've been datin' since high school."
Nigel smiled. "I'm glad some of us got a happy ending." Lizzie's scowl went unnoticed by the group.
"Numbuh 1..." Kuki reached her hand out to comfort the British boy but he shrugged it off.
"It's no big deal..." He didn't sound like it wasn't a big deal but neither decided to push it. Nigel changed the subject. "Has anyone seen Numbuh 2?"
Three heads shook.
"I wonder where he could be?"
"Hey guys!"
The four whipped around to see a young man with red hair walk toward them. Nigel was the first to recognize him.
"Numbuh 2!" His draw dropped. And with good reason.
The boy had changed. He was no longer the short chubby boy from the tree house. He was taller then the rest of them and he was a slightly more muscular version of his teenage self. His hand was joined with the hand of a pretty young lady Nigel didn't recognize.
"This," Hoagie gestured to the girl, "Is Brittany, my girlfriend."
A chorus of hey went up and Brittany shook hands with each of the members.
The lights dimmed suddenly and the room got quite as the new Numbuh 274, a young boy with blonde hair and lots of freckles, got up on stage.
"Ummm...hi. Welcome all retired Kid's Next Door."
Nigel coughed. "Retired...that makes me feel old."
Wally and Kuki nodded in agreement.
The blonde boy continued.
"We have a real special treat for you guys tonight. I wonder if any of you will recognize her..." He walked off stage and the curtains opened to reveal a very pretty African American lady. Her hair was straight and reached about a foot past her shoulders. She wasn't dressed nicely like most of the people. Instead she wore a blue t-shirt and jeans. Sitting sideways on her head was a pink hat.
Kuki gasped and Wally grabbed her hand and both looked over at Nigel. He was staring at the girl with a blank look his mouth hanging limply open. He seemed to come back to reality as she began to sing. She had a beautiful voice.
"Numbuh 5..." The words were barely a whisper escaping Nigel's mouth as he sat in trance.
Because beyond the shadow of a doubt he was staring at the one and only Abigail Lincoln.

Well this is my first shot at a K.N.D. fic. Let me know what you think. Flames will be used to roast Lizzie cuz I really don't like her.
R&R!!!!!!!!!!
