Ben: Welcome back folks! After a looong break by the author…

Ben: Well after a long case of 'Writer's block' A mysterious draft has undergone the C Squad and now they must let go most of the members in the group. What will become of everybody? Who will stay?? Who will go??? Find out in Chapter 21: The Draft!

Mike yawns and walks to Washu who busily typing away at her computer. She suddenly turns to face him.

"Oh! Umm heh, heh, sorry Washu…I didn't mean to-" Before he could finish Washu shows him a piece of paper. He takes the paper and looks at it. He looks at her.

"A draft.." He said with sadness. Suddenly Washu jumped off of her cushion and into Mike, hugging him tightly.

"Please Mike I don't want to leave!!"

"I uhh…I thought you'd be happy to go back to Okayama."

He said looking down at her. She looks up at him with her green eyes.

"Argh! Not the eyes!" He said covering his eyes.

"No Mike I'm serious. I miss them all over there but…I like it here." She said hugging him even tighter. He smiled and hugged back.

"I'll see what I can do."

*~~~~~~~*

"Attention everyone. Mike has an announcement!" Larry announced the large group of CET members. Mike walked in front of them all and smiled a weary smile.

"As you all know I called this meeting on an important note. A draft has been issued and we must now relieve most of you off of satellite 5555. I know this is sudden but once I announce your name you are directed by law to leave CET and return to whatever you were doing before." Mike sighed sadly. And began to read the list.

"Mario Mario, Sonic Hedgehog, Manic Hedgehog, Dr. Hawkins and Officer John McClaine." Mike hated this, out of the whole job he despised this part. Mario hugged Luigi goodbye. Sonic, Manic and Sonia had a group hug and John gave Peter a small pep talk with a smile. Larry showed them to the portal as they waved one last time before they went to the transport room.

Sonia waved and bit her bottom lip. Peter put his arm around her tightly as he waved himself. Mike sighed, he hated himself. He felt as if it was his fault.

"It isn't your fault Mike.." Mike turned around to see Washu standing there with a solemn face. Mike did his cheesiest 'I'm alright smile'. Washu hugged him again and whispered in his ear. "We'll see them again…and thanks for squeezing me in.."

"Hey what are friends for?" Mike whispered back to the genius. A red light next to a red phone where the main computer was started to ring and let out a buzzing sound. Mike sighed knowing it was from the chief. He walked over to the phone and picked it up.

"Cartoon Enforcement Team base number 5555, Mike speaking." Mike said into the phone. He listened as the person in the other line talked to him. He only nodded and mutter a yea or a yes once in a while. After a few minutes he nodded and hung up the phone. He sighed and shook his head.

"Is anything wrong Mike?" Larry asked. Mike shook his head with a slightly confused smile.

"No, we're getting someone transferred here though." Washu looked at Mike a bit oddly.

"I thought the chief wanted less members on the force." She said. Mike shrugged and then heard another buzzing sound. Someone was at the entrance. He walked to the entrance and pushed a button on the wall to open the door. There in front of him stood another man with red hair. He wore pink clothing that looked like nothing he'd ever seen before.

"You must be the new arrival." Mike said with a smile. He extended his hand to him, the other man smiled and shook his hand.

"Yes sir, I am Kurama. I have been sent here to see if I could help." Mike nodded and showed him inside. Soon he rounded up everyone in the main computer room again to introduce the new member.

"Alright, everyone this is Kurama. He's gonna be with us from now on so get to know'em." Just as Mike finished his announcement, he heard the alarm go off. "Well that's our cue guys!"

Ben: Well it seems they lost a few people, but they'll never forget them. At the same time they gained a new member. What will happen on this mission? Find out on Chapter 22: Mike and The Humanoid Typhoon!
