Part 2: Return of Old Friends
Numbuh 65.3: Uh, it's...
Numbuh 362: Spit it out, Herbie!
Numbuh 65.3: Here, hold on. They wish to speak to you.
Numbuh 362 rubs her eyes out of irritation.
Numbuh 362: Uhhh, fine. Patch them through.
Numbuh 65.3: Patching it through now!
Numbuh 65.3 patches the video through on the monitor. Much to everyone's shock, especially Numbuhs 1, 2, and 5, there are four figures on the monitor; Chad, Cree, Tommy, and an unknown figure in hand and ankle cuffs with a bag on his/ her head.
Numbuh 2: TOMMY! What are you doing with them!?
Tommy: Hoagie, there is a lot we have to explain to you! Please, let us talk to you guys. It's important.
Numbuh 362: What's this about Tommy? You aren't an operative anymore. You know that I can't let you dock on the Moonbase unless it was an extreme circumstance, especially with teenagers.
Cree holds up two discs in front of the camera.
Cree: These... are the extreme circumstance, you'll want to watch these. Trust me, I know this may seem bad, is being here, but this is beyond important.
Numbuh 5 slams her hand on Numbuh 362's desk. She stares at Cree angrily, but notices something different different about Cree. She has a small scar on her right cheek, and another on her left arm. Her eyes also seem a little different than usual, they seem warm and loving.
Numbuh 5: Two things! One, why should we trust you?! Two, why do you look different from the last time, I saw you?
Cree's eyes begin to tear up, something Numbuh 5 rarely ever saw Cree do.
Cree: Abby... This is beyond important. Please, let us talk face-to-face.
Everyone is weirded out by the tenderness in Cree's voice, as this is not a side Cree most have them have seen in a long time.
Chad: She's telling the truth guys, please let us land, we'll explain everything.
Numbuh 362: Very well, land in the hangar and come up to my office, all four of you.
Chad: Understood. Over and out.
Chad cuts the video feed, and a suspicious Numbuh 362 turns to everyone else.
Numbuh 4: You're letting them in the Base?
Numbuh 362: If they could find another way to attack us, they would. Besides, we all know Tommy Gilligan would never work with Cree for sinister motives.
Numbuh 2: Maybe, I'm just nervous. It seems odd that they would all show up this conveniently.
Numbuh 1: Agreed, but I want to hear what they have to say, as well as know who was under that hood. Did anyone notice what the person was wearing?
Numbuh 5: I don't know, it almost looked like active Battle Ready Armor the Teen Ninja girls wear. But, why would Cree arrest a teenager? She's a fugitive too. She knows this won't pardon her.
Numbuh 362: Regardless, I agree with Numbuh 1. We need to hear what they have to say. Sector W, Numbuh 10. Why don't you guys go home. Get some rest, we'll publish a report of the scavenger hunt tomorrow. Sector V, stay with me. We'll see what's up with this.
Everyone in the room: Yes, man.
As the four agents leave, the remaining operatives remain while also snickering at Numbuhs 83 and 84, as well as 10 and 363 holding hands.
Roughly five minutes pass before the four figures from the ship enter the room.
Numbuh 362: Alright, What is this about?
Suddenly Chad, Cree, and Tommy run at and Numbuhs 1, 2, and 5 and give them tight bear hugs. Both Chad and Cree have tears in their when they hug Numbuhs 1 and 5.
Numbuh 2: Umm, Tommy? What's going on? I mean I know Chad was an undercover, but he still harbored anger towards Numbuh 1 about Galactic Kids Next Door, and Cree's a traitor.
Tommy: Because, they are the true Chad Dickson and Cree Lincoln.
Sector V and Numbuh 362 all look dumbstruck by Tommy's comment.
Numbuh 362: I'm sorry... what?
The hooded figure: Blah, blah, would you littles brats explain this already? I don't have all day!
Everyone looks over at the hooded figure, recognizing the voice; it sounds just like Cree. Tommy walks over to the hooded figure angrily.
Tommy: You be quiet! Let them have their reunion! She lost three years of her life because of you! You ruined KND careers far more than you can possibly know!
Cree: It's okay, Tommy. Much as I appreciate you coming to our defense, I want you to take that hood off of her. That'll make it easier to explain.
Tommy: Very well.
Tommy removes the hood, revealing it to be a figure who looks almost in every way like Cree, but there is something different about her. Her eyes, they look dead, as if they have no soul. Numbuh 5 looks in shock at this Cree, as if she knows this Cree.
Numbuh 5: Now this is the Cree I saw at the Treaty incident. What is...wait a minute. You're not Cree! You from the Negaverse, ain't ya?!
Sector V seems to be in disbelief at the mention of the Negaverse, a thorn they believed they had removed from their side. Numbuh 362 looks as if they are talking nonsense.
Negative Cree: Three years, and you just now figured it out Crabigail?!
Numbuh 1: You monster!
Cree: You have no idea. Abby, When was the last time you went to the Negaverse?
Numbuh 1: We had a run in with them last summer. When they tried to kidnap us to conquer our world. But, thanks to Numbuh 4, Negative 86, the Little Traitor Dudes, Eizzil, and Daddy. They had decided to all change their ways for the better of everyone.
Negative Cree: Ah! What did You brats do?! You took the top dogs and turned them into kid-loving wussies?!
Numbuh 4: It didn't take much. Thankfully I was able to fight the Negative Sector V, and that Negative 86 is nicer than our 86.
Numbuh 362: Um, why am I just now hearing of this, and who are the people you just mentioned?
Numbuh 1: Well, the Negaverse is essentially everything our world is not, or at least it was at the time, we had convinced them to change after Negative Four was dethroned. As for the people we named they are the opposites. Daddy is everything Father is not. The Little Traitor Dudes are the opposite of the Delightful Children. Eizzil is reverse Lizzie.
Numbuh 362: Wow.
Negative Cree: You brats don't realize what you've done!
Numbuh 4: What? What have we done?!
Negative Cree: You took a beautiful place and turned it off into a freak show!
Numbuh 5: You haven't even seen it changed. And you ain't gonna, neither. Numbuh 5's gonna make sure you rot in the darkest cell in the Arctic Prison.
Numbuh 5 puts the hood back over Negative Cree, then slams her head into the floor, knocking her unconscious. She turns to see the smiling face of her sister.
Cree: Abby, I missed you.
Numbuh 5 looks at Cree with tears in her eyes.
Numbuh 5: I missed you too, Cree. What happened to you?
Cree: This will explain what happened to me. It's a lot POV footage, but you'll understand.
End of Part 2. How many of you are surprised by this twist. I will update the story soon. Please read and post reviews, I'm curious to read what you guys think of the story.
