Chapter Five: Numb

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

The numbness took over her body as the blood spilled over the bright green sheets of her bed,Numbuh 3's eyes were now glassy as she sat there..A strange smile formed across her face as the knife that she wielded in her shaking hands dug deeper into the tanned flesh,The silver blade was twisting as it sliced through veins and soon arteries.The glassy look never leaving Numbuh 3's face.

Until a familier voice broke through her thoughts.

"Numbuh 3!"

Numbuh 3 snapped back to reality,Shaking slightly she could feel the warm,Sticky blood dripping onto the bright green sheets.Her lilac eyes now filmed with tears turned to the person who had called her.Numbuh 1. He seemed to be staring at her from behind his sun glasses,A hand shaking perpetually violent.

"What're you doing?"

Numbuh 1 demanded,worry still lacing his voice.Numbuh 3 whimpered slightly as she instantly drew the blade from her skin,The same sharp feeling of pain cutting through her like a hot knife through butter.Numbuh 3 was scared now,Numbness now taking over her entire arm.She couldn't feel her fingers.She couldn't feel anything.Numbuh 1 sighed.

"Numbuh 3,I know you miss him.But how far is this going to go?"

Numbuh 3's head was bowed in shame as Numbuh 1 shook his head and walked out for a couple of moments before returning with a roll of some sort. He pulled off a long strip of bandage and wrapped it around Numbuh 3's wound.She was losing too much blood as it was.

Numbuh 3 seemed scared but she held back the tears that threatened to come,Numbuh 1 shook his head and silently exitted from the room,Not really noticing the sudden dilemma that befell his team mate,The door closed.

"I never felt so numb...."

She thought sadly as she turned towards the mirror,Her reflection coming out dark and distorted,Just like she felt right now.

"So you want to join the bad side?"

Mr.Boss leaned over his desk looking at the small blonde headed Aussie,Numbuh 4 nodded looking up at the adult.This seemed to be the only thing that he actually thought he'd fit for.Besides,They didn't seem to be so bad.

"Alright kid,If you think you're up for it."

Mr.Boss muttered,His dark thoughts directing on the young operative.Numbuh 4 was now right where the Villans had wanted him.Numbuh 4 forced a smile as the knap sack was still slung over his shoulder as he turned and started towards the training room.

"Those blasted Kids Next door..WILL meet their downfall...."

Mr.Boss muttered darkly as he watched the dark brown oak door open and then swing closed as Numbuh 4 stepped through them.

"I felt so paralyzed..Like there was no feeling left in my body....."

Numbuh 3 wrote in her journal,The plushies were now in a heap in the center of the floor,Strapped to some kind of pole.A box of matches on the nearby table.

"And we have the execution..."

Numbuh 3 muttered as she picked up the matches and lit one of them,Slowly heading for the plushies at the same time,The door flung open.

"NUMBUH 3! WHATS GOING ON!?"

Numbuh 1.
The match instantly went out as Numbuh 3 turned to Numbuh 1,Her eyes glassy for a moment before she fell to her knees sobbing wildly.

Numbuh 1 sighed and stepped out,Numbuh 3 obviously needed her privacy.

Numbuh 3 felt so alone.She had never felt so Numb in her entire life.

Numb.

The retched word echoed through her head as the tears spilled rapidly over her pale face,Choking on the tears she just sat there on the hard wood floor.Crying.When would this pain and numbness end?
