I don't on KND
Numbuh Four and Mashi stared each other in the eyes. Mashi grinned evilly.
"You askin' for trouble?" Wally asked.
"You gonna give it to me?" Mashi asked. There was a brief moment of silence and Wally said nothing. Mashi then continued…
"Of course not…because... you're... chicken." Wally clenched his teeth and growled.
"That does it! HEEEYAAA!" Numbuh Four cried. He held his arm back and thrust it forward to punch Mashi when a hand grabbed a hold of him.
"Wha?" Numbuh Four looked up to see who had grabbed him, only to see it was Numbuh One. He was frowning.
"Numbuh Four, may I see you in my office please?" He asked. He let go of Numbuh Four and left to his room.
"Aw crud." Numbuh Four said. He pouted as he followed Numbuh One to his room. Mashi grinned evilly. Everyone poked their heads out of their room to see Numbuh Four following Numbuh One. They looked at each other before emerging from their rooms and quietly rushing to the outside of Numbuh One's door. Mashi smiled.
"This is just too easy!" He said. He stayed where he was. In Numbuh One's room, Nigel had just sat down at his desk. Wally had just entered.
"Close the door Numbuh Four." Nigel said in a stern voice. Wally did so and everyone outside leaned their ears against the door.
"Have a seat." Numbuh one said. Wally sat down in front of Nigel. Nigel sighed. He had his hands clasped together and folded on his desk.
Numbuh Four, I'm sensing some tension between you and Numbuh 202, care to explain?" Numbuh Four kept his mouth shut and scowled.
"Numbuh Four…"
"Ah ain't got nothin' to say." Wally shot back. Nigel peered over his sunglasses.
"You know, you could get in big trouble for threatening to injure a fellow Kids Next Door Operative. I would have been forced to do something drastic like exclude you from future missions for a certain period of time had I not stepped in when I did, and you know we need you."
"Yeah roight!" Wally said rolling his eyes.
"You'd just get Mashi to replace me and you know it!" He cried. Nigel frowned.
"That was uncalled for, Numbuh Four." He said in a monotone voice.
"Whatevah!" Wally said. He kept his head turned away from Numbuh One.
"Look, I know you don't like Numbuh 202…"
"What gave you that idea!" Numbuh Four asked sarcastically with a hing of anger in his voice.
"BUT! You can at least try to get along with him until his assigned to his new sector. He just moved here, remember? Do you think you can handle that?" Nigel asked. Wally rolled his eyes.
"Oh sure! I can handle it!" Wally cried, throwing his hands up. He stood and began pacing the floor.
"Ah can handle the fact that he's totally playin' all my best friends!Ah can handle the fact that everyone's fallen for the guy just because he's taller than me, faster than me, and maybe even smattah than me!Ah can handle the fact that he's got the others wrapped 'round his finger and he's ready ta 'urt 'em as soon as he gets the chance!Ah can evenhandle the fact that everyone's treatin' me loike ah'm one of da cruddy Delightful Children, all because Ah'm trying to protect 'em! Oh, yeah, Numbuh One,Ah think ah can handle it!" Numbuh Four cried. He was pacing throughout this whole speech and his face burned red with anger. Numbuh One looked at him calmly.
"It sounds… like your jealous Numbuh Four."
"WHAT! Oh!" Numbuh Four cried out in disbelief, slapping his ownforehead with his hand.
"Not you too Numbuh One!" He cried. Numbuh One folded his arms.
"You just said that you think Numbuh 202 is taller, faster, and smarter than you, and since those are traits you seem to desire, it sounds like your jealous!"
"WHAT!AH DON'T WANNA BE NOTHIN' LOIKE THAT CRUDDY IDIOT!" Wally shouted. He pointed to Numbuh One.
"He's got you hooked too!" He cried. Nigel stared at him.
"Calm down Numbuh Four."
"Calm down! CALM DOWN! 'OW CANAH CALM DOWN WHEN ALL MY FRIENDS ARE AGAINST ME! Kuki thinks ah 'ate her when it's the exact opposite! Abby thinks ah wanna foight 'er when that's the last thing on my mind! And Hoagie won't even talk to me! AND YOU……" Wally paused and stared at Numbuh one with huge eyes. Everyone outside the room looked at each other sadly. Wally really sounded upset. Maybe there was more to this Mashi character than they thought. They turned and looked at Mashi, who was doing something on his PDA. They heard Numbuh Four sigh inside the room.
Ya know what? Ya roight Numbuh One. Ah'm jealous, okay? Ye 'appy now?" Wally asked. He walked back over to the chair and slumped down in it. Numbuh One frowned.
"Well, you'd better straighten up your act Numbuh Four, or else I really WILL be forced to exclude you from present missions."
"Whateveah!" Wally said. He stood up.
"Can ah go to my room now?" He asked. Nigel sighed.
"Yeah, you're dismissed Numbuh Four, but just try to deal with Numbuh 202 for now, okay?" Numbuh Four turned his back on Numbuh one and said nothing as he exited his room. Everyone was standing around him. He frowned.
"What are you guys doin' here?" He asked, looking at them. Hoagie and Abby looked at each other.
"Uhhhh….I DROPPED A QUARTER! Yeah! That's it! And these guys were helping me find it!" Hoagie cried, dropping to the ground. Abby discreetly allowed a quarter to slip from her pocket and hit the floor. Hoagie saw it.
"Got it!" He cried standing up. He laughed nervously.
"Come on Numbuh Five, let's go." He said. He and Numbuh Five left and as they did, Numbuh Five said…
"Numbuh Five wants her quarter back." Hoagie pouted and gave it to her. Wally frowned and looked at Kuki.
"And what about you?" He asked. Kuki frowned.
"Wally, I'm sorry. I should have thought about…I uh…I didn't mean to hurt your feelings." She said sweetly. Wally blushed a little but still looked mad.
"Who said my feelings were 'urt!" He asked in frustrationi. He pushed passed her and went to his room.
"Wally…" Kuki whispered.
