1Hello everyone. I hoped you enjoyed the first chapter, because now it's time for chapter 2. But before we get into that, there's a few things I want to mention that I should have addressed in chapter 1.
First of all, I do NOT own KND. KND belongs to Tom Warburton, Curious Pictures, and Cartoon Network. I do however, own the characters of Numbuhs 273 and 600, the plot, and all development and expansion of Patton's character.
Second, Numbuh 273 is Canadian, but she enjoys talking in Japanese every now and then because of her otaku like nature( so essentially, she's sort of a weeaboo).
And third and finally, this is set in a Post-TREATY environment, where the GKND nor the SplinterCell exist.
So now that we've got that out of the way, let's move onto the next chapter!
Chap.2:Alpha
An hour or so after the battle's finish, hammering and buzzsawing could be clearly heard throughout the bridge as operatives began to repair the damage done by the teens. Elsewhere near the computer station, Rachel, Nigel and Abby all stood there, conversing their most recent encounter with the teens.
"Man, those teens sure put up a fight", Abby commented as she stretched out her back, Rachel nodding in agreement.
"Yeah", Nigel chimmed in suspiciously. "But didn't you find it odd that-"
The Sector leaders sentence however was abruptly cut off by the sound of two loud voices entering the room. Turning around, the three friends came to witness both Fanny and Patton coming down the stairs, bickering like no tomorrow. Sighing, Rachel crossed her arms as her two friends came to stand in front of her, the bickering immediately ending as they did.
"So, I assume you have a report, or is that arguing what you two would call flirting", she asked sarcastically.
"Well everythin' was going fine until freezer boy started shootin' wildly into the air at the teens" Fanny shouted angrily.
"We were cornered and to take abvasive action! Besides, you would've done the same thing if you were in my shoes", Patton angrily replied back.
"No I wouldn't", she barked back.
"Just admit it, I was right", he barked back.
"Fine! I was right", she replied.
"Thanks. I was right, wasn't I" he replied in a devious tone, the smirk on his face only agrivating the Irish redhead once more.
"Why you little-", she began to hiss as she went to grab his neck.
"Anyway", he said as he walked over to his superior. "Are you alright Rachel?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine", the young blonde replied sweetly.
"You're sure?", he asked in a concerned tone.
"Yes", she replied in a slightly
annoyed tone.
"But what if-"
"Just relax Patton, I'm fine. You worry way too much about me", sh replied as a devious smirk apperared on her face, causing the young Drill Sergeant to blush in emberassment.
As this little scene played out, Nigel and Abby could not help but look at each other with looks of amusement and disbelief as Fanny slapped her hand to her forehead in annoyance. Suddenly though, the doors opened once more. Turning around, the British bald boy and the spunky African-American sighed in releif upon seeing the rest of their team walking down the stairs in a hurry. Those teammates were Hoagie P. Gilligan Jr., or Numbuh 2, scientist and pilot of Sector V, and Kuki Sanban, or Numbuh 3, nurse and distractionist of Sector V. Followed by them were Wallabee Beatles, or Numbuh 4, hand-to-hand combatanist of Sector V, and Alex Dawson, or Numbuh 273, mutant of Sector V. Once down the stairs, the four friends quickly ran over to the small group of five in a worried fashion.
"Oh, thank goodness you guys are okay!", replied Kuki as she mauled Abby.
"I agree with Kuki-chan. I'm so glad you guys are okay", Alex replied in a releived tone. "Except for you freezer boy", the mutant brunette stated, her voice immediately switching from a releived tone to a bitter tone.
"The feeling's mutual",, the raven haired boy replied in the same bitter tone.
"Aside from that, I'm glad to know that you guys are okay", replied the British bald boy.
"Ah don't worry Numbuh 1, we're okay", Hoagie replied chipperly. "But man, you should have seen the fight! First I punched them, then I whacked them, then I-"
"Two-Seventy-Three just put up her guard sheild, didn't she?", Wallly asked in a suspicious tone.
"Welll...yeah", the plump pilot replied. "But if she hadn't, I would've punched them, and then I woul've whacked them", he continued as both Nigel and Wally sighed in annoyance.
"Well getting past that, 86-chan, are you alright?", Alex asked in a concerned tone.
"I'm fine, and don't call me that", the Irish redhead barked at her 'friend'.
"Rachel-san?"
"I'm okay", the young blonde replied.
"Abby-sama, are you okay?", the mutant brunette asked as she took the braided beautys hands into her own, her brown eyes now shaped like big, bulgy, anime puppy dog eyes.
"Relax girl, Numbuh 5's fine", the spunky African-American replied calmly.
"Are you sure?", her hyperactive friend asked. "Because if not, I can help. I can make you food, I can comfort you, I can-"
"She's fine!", the seven friends replied in an annoyed manner.
"Alright, sheesh", Alex replied in a sassy tone as she let go of her friends hands.
"Man, that was some fight though, huh?", Hoagie asked in a tone of disbelief.
"It was, but didn't you guys find it odd that they'd just attack at random?", Nigel asked suspiciously.
"Come to think of it...I did",
replied the young Supreme Leader in a suspicious tone.
"Me
too", the young Drill Sergeant replied in a smimilar
tone.
"What do you think they wanted", Wally asked in a curious tone.
"I'm not sure, but they obviously wanted something", Rachel replied as she cuffed her chin in suspicion, trying to analyze what they could've possibly wanted.
"Well maybe they didn't want something. maybe they just wanted to bug us", Kuki replied calmly.
"I don't know Numbuh 3. The teens actions are more coarse, but just like Father they always have a reason behind what they do", Patton sternly replied.
"Maybe they wanted something you're keeping top secret", Nigel suggested.
"Impossible. There's nothing we're keeping under lock and key right now", Rachel replied calmly.
"You sure about that girl?", Abby asked, thingying an eyebrow in suspicion.
"Positive", the young blonde replied. "Unless of course", she began to say as she turned towards her Irish friend with a look of suspicion.
"Hey don't look at me. I learned my lesson from the last time", Fanny remarked in a slightly annoyed tone, recalling the time she had not told anyone that the Recomissioning Moduel was still operational.
As the conversation progressed, Alex walked over towards the computer system, beginning to throughly examine the mahcine as she began to move her hand across the keyboard in hopes of getting a vision. A unique gift bestowed on her in addition to her telekinisis was the gift of foresight, which had recently grown in power to show her not only visions of the past, but also visions in her sleep. The mutant brunette sighed in disappointment, upset that visions had come to her. But upon touching the monitor screen with her hand, she suddenly felt a a giant shockwave come over her body.
Shortly afterwards. Alex found herself floating in some sort of abyss, her body feeling as light as air as it continued to fall into nothingness. "Where...am I?", she thought to herself as she opened her brown eyes, beginning to take in her surroundings. Upon opening her eyes completely, she came to face a monitor errily close to the one on the bridge. Standing herself up straight, the mutant brunette them became confused as to what appeard on screen. What appeared on screen was the image of a stern looking boy around her age dressed in gold and purple, a light purple scarf covered his mouth and a black and blue mask covered his eyes.
"Good day Kids Next Door operatives. Since I am inclined to keep my identity a secret, I shall be known to all of you as Alpha", the boy replied sternly.
"Alpha?", Alex thought to herself as she stared at the boy, frightened by the aura she sensed from him.
Suddenly though, Alex woke up to find herself in Abby's arms, she and everyonelse had concerned looks on their faces as they eyed her.
"Hey girl, you alright?", Abby replied in a concerned tone.
"Daijoubu", she replied calmly, all the while muttering the phrase for 'I'm alright' in Japanese.
"What did you see", Rachel asked in a curious manner.
"I saw a monitor screen", she began
as she sat herself up. 'And on that monmitor screen I saw a boy
about our age dressed in gold and purple.
"Did he have a
name?", Nigel asked suspiciously.
"Yeah...he called himself Alpha", she said.
"Alpha..., Rachel replied, interested by merely just the boy's name. Suddenly though, she heard a panicky voice ring through her ears only a few seconds later.
"Sir! All Kids Next Door computer systems have gone offline!", Herbie shouted in a panicky tone.
"What!? How is that possible", Rachel asked in a tone of panic and disbelief.
"I don't know", Herbie replied in a similar tone.
Suddenly though, the blank monitor screen returned, playing the image of a boy wearing gold and purple. The image caused much confusion amongst operatives present on the bridge, with the exception of Rachel and her small group, who recognized the image described to them from their friends vision. Alex in particular was stunned as she clamped her mouth to her hand , a mix of disbelief and horror clearly detailed in her brown eyes as she did so.
"I'm gonna take it that's da' guy you saw", the braided beauty asked in a suspicious tone as Alex nodded her head.
"That's him...that's Alpha...", the mutant brunette replied in a frightened, almost whispered tone.
"Good day Kids Next Door operatives. Since I am inclined to keep my identity a secret, I shall be known to all of you as Alpha", the boy replied sternly, causing all operatives present in the room to stare at the screen in curiosity.
"As of now, I'm certain all of you are wondering why it is that I've hacked your system? Well to answer that question, I called here to inform you of the teen attack quite recently. You see, the thing is...I sent them to attack you", he replied in an arrogant tone that caused a stir of surprise from all operatives present in the room.
"Yes...I pretended to be Father, and sent them up here to cause mischief. Not because I wanted something, but so I could use them as a warning. Not to the organization as a whole, but to one person in particular. And that would be your dear Supreme Leader miss Rachel McKenzie, Numbuh 362", he replied in a stern tone that caused the young blonde and everyone else( particularly Fanny, Patton, and Sector V) to gasp in shock.
"Now I'm sure some of you might feel that this is merely because I don't like a girl in the role of Supreme Leader. But believe me, it goes beyond that", he continued in a bitter tone.
"It's not to much that you're female, it's what you've done that's angered me enough to take action. Your mistakes and pacifistic views have cost this organization its reputation and even its very existence on several occasions. In fact, with the way you run it, I'm surprised it's still standing", he continued.
"I can't sit idly by and let this continue anymore. But instead of attacking you, I've decided to start you off with a warning Numbuh 362. Either step down from your title and return to being a spy, or else...That is all", he finished as the transmission ended.
Once the transmission ended, many operatives in the room began to chat in a panicked tone, all of them in shock of what they'd just seen and heard. As this went on, Rachel continued to stand there in shock as she began to absorb everything that had just been said to her, her beautiful face switching from a look of shock to a look of stern determination as she did so.
"That bastard", Nigel
replied as he watched this scene unfold, anger clearly detailed on
both his handsome face and in his British accented voice.
"I
know...he's such a tacky dresser", Kuki replied in a sassy tone
that caused the rest of Sector V to stare at the little Asian girl
with looks of complete anger and disbelief. "What?"
"Sir", Patton said in a determined tone. "Let me and my team take him on. We'll have this jerk hunted down and arrested faster than you can say-"
"You will do no such thing", the young blonde replied bluntly, causing the young Drill Sergeant to stare in complete shock. "But Sir-"
"I said you will do no such thing Numbuh 60, is that clear", she sternly asked as she turned her head to slightly face his gaze, watching him sigh in disappointment after a short moment of silence.
"Yes Sir", he said in a disappointed tone.
"Sir...what are we goin' te' do", Fanny asked as she stared at her leader, concern clearly visible in her voice as she did so.
"Call a meeting", the young Supreme Leader replied in a stern tone that surprised her small group. "I want every Kids Next Door operative at the Super Convention Center in 0500 hours...all of you must be aware of the plan of action I've decided to take for this situation."
