Hey guys! I will be posting one more part today, though it's going to be a little bit shorter than this one. I hope you're enjoying it!

The operatives of Sector V snuck around the Moonbase as if they were playing hide 'n' go seek. Abby knew that lately the Teens had been planning attacks on the Moonbase, so majority of the Moonbase operatives would be defending the KND Headquarters. However, in front of the power core, there seemed to be a few serious-looking Moonbase guards.
The smallest creak of the floorboard (curiosity of Numbuh 2) caused all six guns to be pointed at them. "State your name and business!" Numbuh 398 said.
"More like names," Numbuh 35 stated, seeing five silhouettes. He narrowed his eyes.
"We're Numbuhs 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 from Sector V; we mean no harm," Nigel stated calmly, holding his hands up. The guns lowered.
"What are you doing here?" Numbuh 116 asked, sighing afterwards.
"Do you know how much energy the power core generates?" Hoagie asked, changing the subject.
"Oh, about twenty-billion fold to power the whole Moonbase," Numbuh 24 answered, thinking it was an innocent question. "There's even a few spare back-up generators that can power just that much. They even come in pocket size! Probably the best 2x4 technology Numbuh 74.239 ever made."
"Interesting," Hoagie said, drawing out the word. He gave a slight nod to Nigel, who merely smirked.
"Now," he said quietly, for he feared being overheard. The guards were shocked to see all the operatives of Sector V, one of the most loyal (albeit disobedient) sectors, pull out M.U.S.K.E.T.s and point it at them. Before they even had a chance to raise their guns, they fired. Covered in mustard, they fell to ground, dropping their weapons. Hoagie hacked the control panel, forcing the doors to slide open. He went in, finding the pocket sized power generator Numbuh 24 talked about. Tossing it to Nigel, they made their exit using jetpacks.
Standing up, Numbuh 116 reached into her waistband, grabbing a walkie-talkie. "Come in Numbuh 60; come in Numbuh 60, over," she said.
"We're in the middle of a battle, Numbuh 116! What is it? Over!" he exclaimed, noises of war against the teens going on in the background.
Numbuh 44a and 44b closed the door to the power core. "I'm afraid we've been betrayed by Sector V. They just stole a pocket sized backup power generator, over," she said.
"Sector V? Are you serious? Over," he answered quickly.
"Of course I'm serious! Over," she said.
"I'll see what Numbuh 362 wants us to do about it, Numbuh 116. Over and out."
There was a zap as Hoagie managed to install the power generator into the Recommissioning Module. "I got it! Ha! This should overpower eleventy-billion fold worth of energy by a long-shot," he said.
"Good job, Numbuh 2! Now if we can just-" Nigel began, but got cut off by a frantic knocking at the treehouse door.
Before anyone made a footstep towards the door, they heard Numbuh 60 shouting, "Open up, traitors of the Kids Next Door! We've got you surrounded!"
"Traitors?!" they all exclaimed, giving worried looks to each other.
"You heard me! Open up! I'm giving you one last chance!" he exclaimed.
"There has to be some misunderstanding, Numbuh 60! We would never betray the Kids Next Door!" Nigel shouted.
There was silence, until Numbuh 60 and his team busted down the door to the treehouse. They quickly found the members of Sector V and pointed their guns at them. They put their hands up. "Misunderstanding?! Come on, you deliberately stole a power generator from the power core!" Numbuh 60 stated.
In a moment of weakness, Nigel said, "We're using it to recommission Sector Z, alright? I found out who they were and what happened to them last week! We can get them back. You have to believe me!"
"Wha- that's ridiculous, Numbuh 1! Why would you need a power generator that produces that much energy to recommission Sector Z, if you're telling the truth that you know."
"Because, the only way to override they're, um, current state, we need more than eleventy-billion fold worth of energy!"
"I thought I told you guys to leave it alone."
Numbuh 362, followed by Numbuh 86, came from behind Numbuh 60's team. "I came as soon as we defeated the teenagers," she told Numbuh 60, who nodded. She then turned to Sector V. "Look, I don't believe you guys betrayed the Kids Next Door, but I still think you're asking more than you can get!"
"Give us a chance, Numbuh 362. We think we've figured it out! At least let us try," Nigel said.
Soon enough, they were all marching towards the Delightful Mansion. Nigel and Rachel (Numbuh 362) were in the front. Once outside the enormous house, Rachel shouted, "Delightful Children from Down the Lane, this is the Supreme Leader of the Kids Next Door! Open up now and we will hold our fire!"
"I hope yer right about this, Numbuh 1," Fanny (Numbuh 86) murmured.
Many footsteps could be heard from inside the mansion, getting louder as the neared the door. When it opened, The Delightful Children from Down the Lane were in the doorway.
"To what do we owe the pleasure?" they asked suspiciously in perfect unison.
"A little thing called the Recommissioning Module," Nigel said, holding it right in front of them and cranking it. A bright light zapped them blasting both the DCFDTL and Nigel backwards. As Nigel was flung back, he sent everyone else behind him falling as well.
