Loss and Gain?

Nigel stood in the rain too. Watching his girlfriend walking into her house with Hoagie. He had seen it all. Heard it all. Hoagie was in love with Lizzie. Bared his soul to her. And she was ready for the possibility of never seeing him (Nigel) ever again.

we have to go on when we lose those we love, Nigel's mind replayed Lizzie's words, we have to or we'll wither up and die Hoagie.

Nigel couldn't feel the tears falling down his cheeks; it was raining too hard. But he knew he was crying. His body soon racked with sobs as he cursed himself for sneaking out of the DCFDTL mansion to see Lizzie.

Mushi Sanban meanwhile listened closely to what was being told to her.

"So you understand?" Mr. Boss asked her.

"Kuki caused an accident and the KND blamed her?" Mushi asked still unsure of everything Mr. Boss was telling her.

"And the police did tell you that they tracked the last call to be from the Moon Base," Mr. Boss reminded her and Mushi nodded, "so you understand what I'm telling you?" he asked her.

"But you're bad," Mushi said in response.

Mr. Boss growled.

"The KND caused your sister's death!" Mr. Boss exploded, "my daughter and son are dead too!"

"Fanny and Paddy?" Mushi asked tearfully.

"Yes," Mr. Boss said softly.

He suddenly felt a hug.

"I'm sorry Boss Man," Mushi told him.

Mr. Boss pushed into the back of his mind the lies he had told his newly adopted child and hugged her.

Abby and Cree walked around one of the teen ninjas secret bases.

It was now Noon the following day.

"I always thought I'd only view this place in hatred," Abby said as she watched teens go about their daily job of destroying the resistance made by children and child lovers.

"The KND is a hypocrite unto itself," Cree said frankly, "they talk about better lives for children," she stated, "but have no facilitation, no plan to take care of you once you get older," she pointed out, "the adults however," she said, "take care of all of those on their side," she said proudly, "I toiled for years at the KND," she remembered, "and what did I get?" she asked hatefully, "the thirteen-year old boot and the choice to be a typical memory erased teenager or one with memories of her time in the KND."

"Are you glad you chose the latter?" Abby asked her sister.

"You bet I am," Cree declared, "especially since I can remember and now spend time with Maurice," she said awestruck.

Abby suddenly stopped walking.

Oh no, Abby thought.

"What did you tell him?" Abby asked.

Cree wondered what Abby was talking about. Then she smiled.

"Abby I know you like him," Cree said.

"He's an undercover KND agent," Abby revealed.

You could suddenly hear a pin drop.

"Abby," a voice said suddenly.

Abby looked up to see Maurice. He was right beside several teenagers and Father. All of who now wore furious faces.

"You've killed me," Maurice said in disbelief.

And that was all he got to say. A fireball from Father silenced him forever.

Numbuh 365 sat at her desk and looked over paper work. Sometimes she wondered what the difference was between her job as leader and a real job. Then she quickly admonished herself. Such thoughts never fitted with a KND agent.

Suddenly someone ran inside. Numbuh 365 looked up to see one of the undercover teenage operatives.

"Uh hello covert Numbuh…" Numbuh 365 started.

"Maurice is dead," the undercover agent told her.

Numbuh 365 was shocked silent.

"Abigail Lincoln former agent Numbuh 5 of sector v betrayed him," the undercover agent revealed.

"WHAT!" Numbuh 365 screamed, "where is she?" she demanded.

"She's with the teens now," the undercover agent said sadly, "she was seen at a teen ninja secret base together," she told Numbuh 365, "I even heard Cree barely two hours ago being excited about her sister changing sides and cursing the KND," she said.

Oh God. Abby's faith is coming true. But that means… NO. I will NOT allow it, Numbuh 365 thought.

Ninth Statement Made

Thank you everyone for your reviews. Mr. Boss only has two children in this fic (both currently dead). The redhead with Numbuh 4 was supposed to be Jerry Rassic. But I think his hair might be brown not red like I initially decided, if so I'll amend the summary as such. I'm certain that there were a few shocks and surprises in this fic for readers. Thank you all for reading and please review.
