She was the last one to go. As she looked at Numbuh 86, she felt a sudden pang in her heart.
"Stop! I don't wanna gooo!"
Numbuh 86 looked sadly at her. "I'm sorry, Numbuh 3...You know the rules...But, well...I...Um...Thank you...for...being my friend...You and Numbuh 12 were my only friends..." she closed her eyes and muttered, "They're going to kill me for this..." then she turned back to Numbuh 3 and smiled, an attempt to be rude, but to no avail. "Goodbye, Numbuh 3. You WERE a good operative!"
She expected a plunger to come to her face, so she was surprised when, instead, a helmet went to her head.
"What? What are you-" But then her memories were going...Leaving her...And then everything went blank.
Kuki Sanban went to school unable to recall a lot of these past few months. That same morning her parents had asked her why she hadn't slept at the treehouse...Since WHEN did she have a treehouse?
She entered the room just in time to receive a dirty look form her teacher.
"Ah...Kuki, just in time. I know it's pointless to ask, but have you done your homework?"
Kuki looked in her bag. "Sorry...I guess I didn't do it last night!"
Her teacher sighed. "I know, Kuki, you have not done it the whole year...When you actually CAME to school!"
Kuki was confused, but she just shrugged it off. The teacher was always exaggerating anyway.
When she got home, she went straight to her room and tried to remember what she had done for fun these past years. She had watched Rainbow Monkies Babies...But that had been when she was seven...What had she done when she was eight? or nine? Ten? Eleven? Twelve? Nothing...All she remembered was school and visits to Japan...That was it.
"Mom...What did I do for fun when I was younger?" she asked her mom when she walked in.
"Hmm...Well, you played with those Rainbow Monkies dolls...You watched TV...Went to amusement parks...Played with Mushi...Oh, and you played with your friends!"
"OOH! What friends? Sally? Justin? Kalsey??" she asked excitedly.
"No, no! I can't REMEMBER the last time you talked to them! Why, you're always playing with those four children! So delightful...What were their names? Well, of course there was that adorable Wallabee...And Hoagie...I can't remember the other two at the moment...But why aren't you at the treehouse now?"
"Mom! I'm thirteen! I'm too OLD for treehouses!"
"Oh...That's right, you told me about that!"
"Wait, Mom! Who was the second boy you said?"
"Oh...Hoagie Gilligan? Sweet boy, always loved to try my cooking...Which is more than I can say about my FAMILY! Hmph!" she left, leaving Kuki to think.
Hoagie Gilligan...DID she know him? Yes, she did have VERY distant memories...A sort of chubby kid in class...Smiling as he was introduced to his classmates while she got up and waved excitedly...Why had she been so happy to meet him? Why? Did she really hang out with him like her mom said? Or were they playing a trick on her?
No use worrying about it now. She wouldn't see him until tomorrow anyway. She pulled off her green sweated and...Plop! Out came a small, red book. The words Kuki Sanban were on the front. She opened it and flipped to a random page towards the end.
Morning: Today HE will leave us...He'll forget us and that'll be that...But why him? Why does this happen? I don't wanna lose him...I DON'T! Why can't he just say, "Ya know what? I don't feel like doing this cruddy thing!" I feel so alone...
Night: He's gone...I stood there and watched him leave...It was so painful...That guy I've known for so long is gone...I guess I should say it here because I never said it in real life...I love you, so goodbye...I guess soon I'll have to forget you too.
Kuki blinked. "What? So...Hoagie tried to forget me somehow? But why would he do that?...Hmm...Maybe we were dating! And he broke up with me! And...I just watched him walk out my door, knowing this was goodbye?"
(A/N: Kuki has GOT to stop reading so much romance novels. XD)
Kuki ran downstairs and asked Mushi, "Hey, did I have a boyfriend?"
Mushi grinned. "You sure did! But, then..."
Kuki was already off, shouting, "It's okay, Mushi! I know!"
"You...do?"
The next day Kuki was out the door at seven, complete with Hoagie's address. He was about two blocks from an old treehouse...She supposed this was the one her parents had mentioned.
"Hiya!" she smiled cheerfully at the man who answered the door. "You may not know me...
The man interrupted. "Oh! Kuki! It's been a while, hasn't it? Hoagie's upstairs sleeping...Would you wake him up?"
So Kuki went upstairs and entered the first door. There was a boy sleeping. She went over and poked him, then whispered, "Hey! Wake up!'
The boy rolled over and looked at her sleepfully. She couldn't believe she loved him...He couldn't be much older than 10!
He blinked. "Huh? AHHHH! NUMBUH...KUKI'S IN HERE!! GET OUT, TEENAGER!" he grabbed a gun and shot mustard in her face.
She wiped it off and glared at him. "What was that for? And what were you about to call me?"
But the boy wasn't listened. He was staring, horrified, behind her. She turned and saw the chubby boy she remembered.
"Tommy, do you HAVE to attack the only girl ever to come visit me?" he turned to her. "Sorry, my room's this way..."
They went to his room and sat on his bed. "So, Hoagie...Miss me?"
"Um...Why would I miss you? I just saw you yesterday..."
She gasped and jumped up. "You broke up with me yesterday!?! No wonder I can't remember! I'm in denial!"
Hoagie blinked. "Break...up with you? We were never dating!" he sighed and shook her head. "At least...I don't THINK we were..."
"WHAT? You can't remember!?!"
"A couple of months ago I woke up and I couldn't remember a lot of things I used to do...I couldn't even remember my friends!"
Kuki groaned. "It happened to me, too. Yesterday, as a matter of fact. I woke up not remembering anything pertaining to fun...Then my mom mentioned you, and I found this!" she showed him the page in the diary she had read last night.
He read it, then stared slowly and deliberately at Kuki. "And you think this 'He' is me?"
"Well, who ELSE would it be?"
He shook his head, then looked at the paper she had used as a bookmark. "What's this?"
She couldn't help the childish grin that grew on her face. "Well...I found it in the diary on some other page! What's it say, anyway?"
He read it out loud. "'It's been a couple of years...We still have many years left, but time flies when you're having fun...So I'll write it now...' This was written about three years ago!"
Kuki squealed. "OOH! Read it, read it!"
He grinned and continued. "'This may be a song, but it has a hidden meaning only you and the others will understand...Then again, maybe even they won't understand it...Because it's all about us.'"
Kuki couldn't hold back the excitement. "OOOH!!! Sing da soooong, sing it!" Her English was getting worse, as it always did when she was excited, but she didn't care.
However, Hoagie shook his head. "No way I'm singing this! YOU wrote it, YOU sing it!"
She frowned. "FINE! We'll read it together!"
Simplicity, what it means to me
Although you do not get it yet.
Playing little games, dancing crazy
Are all things I can now.
I may seem to be childish now
But it won't last forever.
I may get on your nerves
But soon we won't even remember.
You'll be you and I'll be me,
But in two different worlds;
So please let me breathe!
Funny times, our friend's behind
Only we could find that funny.
Tea for two, swimming in the pool
That's the guy I'm used to.
I may seem to be childish now
But it won't last forever.
I may get on your nerves
But soon we won't even remember.
You'll be you and I'll be me,
But in two different worlds;
So please let me breathe!
You may not understand,
But I need to hold your hand.
I need to feel like I'm protected, yeah yeah.
I want to be able to enjoy our little romance,
Before we lose our memories,
Before I lose everything, ooh!
I may seem to be childish now
But it won't last forever...No, it won't!
I may get on your nerves
But soon we won't even remember.
Oh, soon we won't even remember!
I may seem to be childish now
But I'm just hiding my fears.
I do often embarass you
But it's the only thing that let's me go on!
I may seem to be childish now
But it won't last forever.
I may get on your nerves
But soon we won't even remember.
You'll be you and I'll be me,
And in two different worlds;
But still connected at heart.
"Wow! I'm a GREAT poet!" she grinned sheepishly. "Um...What did it mean?"
Hoagie rolled his eyes. "Apparently we HAVE to forget...That would explain why you wanted me to say no...But when?" he looked at her. "What was yesterday?"
"Uh...Monday?"
"No, was it anything special?"
"Oh, my birthday!"
"I lost my memories on my birthday, too! That CAN'T be a coincidence! Kuki, we gotta read your whole diarty!" he flipped to the first page and started reading. "'Today I come to America...It big. Mom say I should write diary, so I will...' Blah blah blah..." he flipped through pages. "Oh, here's something! 'Today I turn 8 and they take me somewhere...Say I am to be operative...Four other people there...One quiet, one nice, one serious, and one mean...He call Kuki "cruddy girl"...What's that?'"
"I wonder what an operative is?" Kuki wondered.
Hoagie shrugged and turned to the next page. "Today they accept all of us. I learn names of people. Quiet one Abigail Lincoln, nice one Hoagie P. Gilligan, serious one Nigel Uno, and mean one Wallabee Beetles. They tell us we Numbuhs...I Numbuh three!
Abby, or Numbuh five just keep to herself, though she help Kuki a little...Hoagie, or Numbuh two, talk to me although he get bored easily. Nigel, or Numbuh one, just roll his eyes and talk to Hoagie or Wally. Wally, or Numbuh four, says "Cruddy girl!" When I asked what cruddy is, he say, "STUPID!" I understand THAT! So I take Super-Boxing-Rainbow-Monkey and ATTACK! Everyone find it funny...I hope I made friends!'"
"Nigel Uno? You mean that kid with the sunglasses?"
"Yep, that's his name...I don't know an Abigail Lincoln though..."
"I know my mom mentioned a Wallabee, but I don't know him..."
"I do! He's my best friend!"
"Really?"
"Yeah, we met when we were around seven. But last month I met him again, and ever since then we've been close! In fact, he's coming over tonight!"
"Awesome! I'm coming too! But first, we've gotta talk to Nigel!"
Can you guys PLEEEASE help me with the couplings? You CANNOT convince me to change the 3/4 pairing, but you MAY be able to persuade me with the others...Especially if you ask for 2/Cree. However, I already wrote up to chapter six...Right now there's hints of 2/5 and 1/5, so it'll probably be 2/5, since Cree is a little bitch in this fic...sobs I made her sooooooo meeeean!! XD
