Chapter Three: Stroke Away From Death

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The End Is Near,Summer Days

All The Great Things Go Away

Feel The Cold Comin' 'Round Again

Everything's Gonna Change Again

Numbuh 3's blank,lilac eyes stared out the now fogging up window.Tears brimming at her eyes,She missed Numbuh 4 and wanted him back.Numbuh 1 and Numbuh 5 had just recently arrived at the station.Numbuh 1 muttered as he paced around,Numbuh -46 was sitting awfully close to Numbuh 13.Numbuh 5 shook her head.

"Pacing ain't gonna do you any good ya know,Numbuh 1." Numbuh 5 quirried,Numbuh 1 turned around to face his team-mate,A exasperated sigh escaping his lips.Numbuh 2 was still trying to fix a toy model.After all,Numbuh 4 had been in the hospital for a couple of days,Yet to Numbuh 3 -- It seemed like monthes.

Numbuh 3 sniffled,wiping away tears as she turned to face everyone.She had always wished Numbuh 4 were here.Atleast then maybe things would percieve a little better.Just a little better.Still wiping away tears she turned her gaze to Numbuh 1 and Numbuh 5.

How can they be so happy?After everything thats gone wrong they remain that way....

Numbuh 3 thought sadly as she turned her attention back to the window,The rain pouring down harshly..It reminded her of the tears that fought their way to the surface,Only to be shed in pure utter silence,Never to see the end of this pain and torture called life....

Down Another Day

Down Another Day

Numbuh 2's attention dircected on Numbuh 3,a sudden feeling of guilt washing over him.He stood up and walked over to Numbuh 3 before placing a hand on her shoulder in a futile attempt to atleast comfort her from this pain.

"Theres not much anyone can do about what happened to Numbuh 4,No one can play God.No one can bring him back now."

Just at those words,Numbuh -46 was beginning to twitch uncontrollably,He leapt from his seat and grabbed the second in command kids next door operative by the collar of his shirt.Shaking him violently.

"Don't you EVER mention that name again!" Numbuh -46 screamed,Feeling everything inside turn to fire.Numbuhs 3,1 and 5 stared in utter shock,Numbuh 13 stood up and grabbed Numbuh -46's arm to keep him from doing anything drastic.

Numbuh -46 was losing total control,He kept jerking around not relizing Numbuh 13 was holding onto him -- In a attempt to stop him.Numbuh 2 whimpered as Numbuh -46 continued to thrash,At one point going to roughly sending his team-mate spiraling to the floor.Numbuh 13 felt her world going hazy from the impact of the hit,Numbuh -46 started to go back to reality.

"Numbuh 13!" he yelled,Despite the gasps filling the entire room...

Oh,The Winter I Adore

Summer's Gone Forever More

Some Days You Come Back To Me

Seasons Change,And Set Me Free

Numbuh 2 backed away as Numbuh -46 approached Numbuh 13,silently kneeling down beside her he tried to wake her up.But yet to no prevail.Numbuh 3's mouth hung open in shock,Everything was becoming so violent -- So twisted.She wasn't sure which was reality anymore.

Down Another Day

Down Another Day

Oh Why Why Why? Did this have to happen???WHY!?

Numbuh 3's mind screamed,She wasn't sure what happened next before all she knew,Everything had just...twisted and it all went black.

Don't Have To Bore You With Details (I'll Never Let You Down)

And Every Morning,The Sun Rise (Will Never Let You Down)

If I Could Hold You To My Road (I'll Never Let You Down)

When She's Cold In The Ocean (We'll Never Let You Down)

9:00,That Night...

Numbuh 3 was tossing and turning,Beads of sweat forming on her upper brow.It was coming back,the horror that replayed itself -- The horror of what happened to Numbuh 4.

"There ain't no such things as cruddy monsters!" Numbuh 4 shouted,he was stomping up towards the door,The others telling him not too.Just as his hand had landed on the handle the door flew open,The australian boy sent flying backwards into the wall.His eyes barely cracking open,Two shadow like creatures stood there in the door way,Both had pairs of reptilian feet and peircing red eyes.They each roared,Numbuh 4 could only look up and scream.

It was like a whirlling tornado,The creature had grabbed him before he could grab his wepon.It tore into it's shoulder,tore into the raw flesh and meat..Blood spilling rapidly over the floor,His screaming not stopping.His screaming growing louder from the agony,The wound seemingly and rapidly growing worse and worse until all faded to black....

Numbuh 3 bolted up in bed,Sweat pouring down rapidly..Her lilac eyes scanning the black room,There was nothing there.No blood.No monsters.Breathing heavily she slid from the bed and headed towards the bathroom...

The End Is Near,My Winter Fling

Change Is Melting Everything

Now It's Time,To Sing For Love

Season Come,Season Go

The bathroom door opened,Numbuh 3 sighed and opened the cabinent.Various bottles lined the shelves,Reaching in she plucked a random one from the shelf.Not knowing that it wasn't a drug or sleeping pill but 'Poison'.Sighing she took a small plastic cup and poured the green liquid into the cup,Groggily she tilted it to her lips and let the oddly mint- tasting liquid slip down her throat.

Down Another Day

Down Another Day

Her world was suddenly spinning,The cup fell from her hands to the tile floor,Clutching the side of the sink she glanced into the mirror.Her reflection as well as the room starting to twist and distort,It was like the room was blown apart and she was being dragged up into the whirling,black winds of a fatal hurricane.

Don't Have To Bore You With Details (I'll Never Let You Down)

And Every Morning,The Sun Rise (Will Never Let You Down)

If I Could Hold You To My Road (I'll Never Let You Down)

When She's Cold In The Ocean (We'll Never Let You Down)

The bathroom was spinning but soon enough was becoming a sea of red,Numbuh 3 was starting to gag..Sickening,red-hot green liquid emerging from her throat and out her mouth.Spilling over the now non-exsistant floor.Her face paling and her body starting to shake,She was falling farther and farther,The darkness consuming her slowly.

I Keep Saying Goodbye,Saying Goodbye

Keep Saying Goodbye

And She's All Thats Coming Back,She Keeps Coming Back

She Keeps Coming Back

I Keep Saying Goodbye,Saying Goodbye

Keep Saying Goodbye

And She's All That Keeps Coming Back,She Keeps Coming Back

You Keep Coming Back

The room was spinning violently,Ever so violently.Numbuh 3 was in a daze she felt herself falling,Faster and faster.

All my fault..All my fault he's gone...

Kept ringing through her now numb mind,She was falling to deep,Way to deep in the darkness.There was no way to save her -- No way to stop it now.

Don't Have To Bore You With Details (I'll Never Let You Down)

And Every Morning,The Sun Rise (Will Never Let You Down)

If I Could Hold You To My Road (I'll Never Let You Down)

When She's Cold In The Ocean (We'll Never Let You Down)

Everything seemed to face,The darkness faded..Everything was normal again.Numbuh 3 was as white as a sheet of paper as she dropped to the floor,Barely breathing and she knew it was her fault.Her fault Numbuh 4 was gone.

Now just like Numbuh 4,She was a stroke away from death.....

Down Another Day

Down Another Day

(We'll Never Let You Down)

Down Another Day

Down Another Day
