I don't own knd or any of the characters with the exception of Vera Palms.
It's been two days since Harvey started his weird story and Numbuhs 83, 84 and 85 are impatient to hear the rest. They have been asking non stop for him to continue but he wouldn't do it until today.
"Please Numbuh 363," pleads Paddy
"Fine! Just stop asking!" Harvey exclaims
Everyone gathers in the main room waiting for the story. Harvey sits in front of them squirming around in his chair.
"You really want to hear this don't you?" Harvey asks
"Well yeah." says Sonya,"also you never finished your truth and you have to."
"Stupid rules," Harvey mumbles, then picks up the volume,"Well then, here's part two of my story,"
Then he starts.
'I woke up a few days later with my head throbbing from where I had hit it on the wall of the cell. I slowly opened my eyes as they adjusted to the dimly lit room. I sat up against the wall and put my bruised hand to my throbbing head. There was a bandage on it'
"Who put the bandage on your head?" asks Sonya
"If you let me continue you'll find out!" exclaims Harvey
She smiles sheepishly at Harvey.
"Sorry, number 363."
"As I was saying, I woke up in the cell."
'Just then I caught a flicker of movement from the opposite corner of the cell. I looked around but saw nothing but a bed made of some straw and a bucket in the corner in front of me. I started to panic.
I felt something staring at me so I looked around even more frantic than before. Nothing was on my left or right, so I looked up. The moment I did my eyes locked with electric blue ones.
I screamed and went into a fatal position. Something flipped over me and landed in front of me. I peeked open my eyes only to lock once again with the electric blue ones of someone else. I screamed again.'
Paddy snickers. All three other members of Sector W glare at him.
"Oh come on, he screamed," exclaims Paddy," TWICE!"
Lee hits him with his yo-yo.
"Please continue Harvey," says Sonya sweetly while Paddy rubs his head.
'Anyways, the blue eyes backed away until I could make out their shape. It was another kid. This one was a girl. She had sickly pale olive-colored skin, long white hair that almost touched the floor, and those electric blue eyes. Her clothes were a torn black tea-shirt over a dirt covered gray shirt with long sleeves, a tattered dirty blue skirt, black tights cut off at the knees and heavy black boots covered in mud.'
"Was she old?" asks Sonya
"Like I already said, she was a kid!" shouts Harvey
"Okay, okay I get it pay attention," she apologizes
'She looked me over then put out her hand.
"Welcome to Father's mansion, or as I call it 'the house of the fire controller'. I'm Vera Palms. Who are you?" she said with a slight Italian accent
I stared at her hand for a few moments before taking it. She pulled me up and I noticed that I was actually two inchs taller than her.
"I'm Harvey McKenzie. Why am I here?" I asked her
Her expression became grim and sickly.
"He knows you're gifted and he will try to turn you into one of those freaks like the kids that threw you in here," she said as she looked at me seriously.
I started to panic again. This meant that my sister would have to fight me.
"What! We have to escape!" I told her while I pulled her to the locked door.
She escaped my grip and took two steps away from me. I looked at her like she was crazy. She took my hand and lead me to the straw bed. She sat me down then sat down beside me. She turned toward me and locked her electric blue eyes with mine.
"Harvey, I know we have to escape. I've been here for weeks trying to and it's near impossible," she motioned to herself," The walls are rock solid as well as the dirt," she motioned to her clothes," and if we disobey we get beaten," she pulled up her sleeve to show a nasty black bruise,"but we will escape."'
"How long had she been there?!" exclaims Sonya
Harvey shrugs.
"About 8 weeks after she was captured she was put in the cell that I appeared in 5 weeks later," says Harvey," So, thirteen weeks or 3 months and one week."
The others stare at him in horror.
"Look things do get better if you let me continue," he says," Can I?"
They nod in unison.
'I stared at her and asked her the most important question in my mind.
"How?"
"We have power controlling practices. That's when we're allowed out of this cell. Now that there's someone else here, I can make a plan to get us out of here," Vera said
"How do I make a difference?" I asked
"Your powers are different so they'll mostly concentrate on you for long enough for me to make at least one good plan," she said yawning
"But I'm useless" I told her
She looked at me with those big eyes and said
"Why the heck would you say that? Just don't act up and they'll actually help you. Then while you get better I can help create a plan to escape. Things just get better when you are no longer alone."
She gots teary at the last part. She gave me a hug.
"So I have to listen to them until we escape?" I asked
She nodded and let go of me. She turned to the wall and fell asleep in the straw. I looked at her and decided that she had to be right and I would get home with her help, so I fell asleep as well next to her.'
"And that is the end of part two of my story" says Harvey
The others stare at him. Then the alarm goes off.
"Kids next door, BATTLESTATIONS!" yells Harvey
And they leave for their mission the only thing on their mind being Harvey's story.
Okay, you can hate this story but this is how I see Harvey or number 363 getting to be who he is. Please Read&Review.
Peace out.
