Chapter Four: Rainbow Monkey Attack!
"Rainbow Monkeys?" Nigel states in shock as he scans the bedroom filled with Rainbow Monkeys merchandise, "Something is seriously wrong here team."
"Yeah," Abby agreed, "It looks like someone got a hold of Numbuh 86's room before we did!"
"You're right Numbuh five, someone obviously destroyed Numbuh 86's old room and replaced it with Rainbow Monkey décor!"
Hoagie turns to the other two, "But who would such a thing?"
"Hmm," Nigel begins to ponder, "Who do we know that likes Rainbow Monkeys…?"
Two Seconds Later at the Restaurant:
Wally is still sitting at the restaurant table, when his pocket begins to ring. He picks up his communicator and talks into it, "Hello?"
"Hey Wally, it's Hoagie."
"Oh hey Hoagie, what's up?" Wally asks, "Did you guys get the keys yet?"
"Well, uhh, see that's the thing," Hoagie begins, "We got inside of her house but someone seems to have trashed her room and replaced all of her belongings with Rainbow Monkey décor. That wasn't you, was it?"
"Me?" Wally squeaks, "Why the crud would it be me? You know I hate Rainbow Dorkies!"
"Still?"
Wally groans, "Just hurry up and grab the keys before I get sick."
"Okay, okay geez, you don't get to tell me twice," Hoagie replies, "Oh, and by the way, if you happen to see Numbuh 3 anywhere, can you tell her to report back to the tree house immediately?"
"Uhh sure, but I haven't seen her all day," Wally lied.
"I know, just in case you do, okay? She's been missing for hours!"
"Alright," Wally agrees as a crash is heard behind him.
"What was that?" Hoagie asks.
"Nothing, I-uhh, I have to go."
"Okay but-" Wally hangs up, Hoagie turns to Nigel and Abby, "Well that was weird."
Wally puts the communicator back in his pocket and turns to Kuki, who is sitting at the table carrying a red Rainbow Monkey in her arms. Fanny is at the opposite end of the table with salad spilled all over her, she glares at Kuki.
"And that's what would happen if Sumo Smackdown Rainbow Monkey wrestled a giant greek salad," Kuki states.
"Super," Fanny responds, wiping the rest of the salad off of her face. She grabs the bowl, now upside down on the top of her head and slams it on the table.
"Geez, tough crowd," Kuki responds.
Fanny stands up out of her seat and turns to Wally, "You know, I thought this was supposed to be a date."
"This is a date silly! Look, there's mints and everything!" Kuki chimes in, holding up a glass bowl full of peppermints. Fanny slaps them out of her hands, Kuki looks down as they scatter on the floor.
"Hey," Kuki states, "That wasn't nice."
Fanny sighs and turns to Kuki, "Look, Numbuh three, as much as I somewhat like you as fellow operative, I'm afraid that you're going to have to leave."
"Leave?" Kuki repeats, "Where am I going?"
"I don't know!" Fanny throws up her arms in frustration, "To the tree house, back to your house-I don't care! Just get out of here!"
"But I don't want to go, after all, my Rainbow Monkeys and I are having so much fun!"
Fanny grabs Kuki by the shirt collar and drags her up to her face, "Listen girly, this is only time that I may ever get to go on a date with Numbuh four and you're ruining it! So leave, before I make you leave!"
"Hey, you can't talk to her like that!" Wally defends.
"Shut-up boy, or you're next!" Fanny screams back at him, her face red with fiery.
"Man, where's a watermelon when you need one?" Wally responds before slumping down in his chair.
"Look, all I know is that Numbuh four told me that he liked me. If he really liked you, than he would've asked you out instead. But he didn't now, did he?"
Kuki looks down at the ground trying to hold back her tears.
"Kuki, wait!" Wally interrupts, jumping out of his seat, "It's not what you think."
"No," Kuki says, trying to hold back her tears; she sniffs, "It's much worse."
Kuki exits the area leaving a hurt, broken Wally behind. Wally sighs and picks up the kitten stuffed animal seated next to him, "Wow," he says softly, "She even forgot Mr. Fluffles, she never forgets him," he adds before hugging the kitty close to his chest.
This was going to be a long evening for both of the Sector V teammates.
