A/N: In case y'all haven't figured this out, my story kinda follows A Sitch In Time.

I sit cross legged on the floor. Rufus 3001 comes and stands next to me.

"Hope, your mother wants you," he tells me.

I nod and get off the ground. I enter my parents' quarters.

"Hope...?" Mom calls helplessly; then "There you are."

I smile as I look away from her eyes; beautiful, yet useless. The Supreme One took her sight from her in a battle.

"Hope, I'm beginning to think it's time for you to take a place on Team Possible," she says, running a hand through my auburn hair.

I smile; at age 12, I'm already helping my uncles and parents; I've been waiting for this day for so long.

"I think I'll let your father and Monique take you on the next mission," she says, equally excited.

I squeal happily as I rush to hug her.

"Thank you," I whisper. "It's what I've always wanted."

She smiles and lets me leave. I rush out of the room, ready to tell Rufus Prime. I know he'd be willing to go with me on my first mission.

Rufus Prime was the first of the Rufus dynasty. He's been part of my family longer than I've been alive. He's been a member of Team Possible since my dad bought him at a store called "Smarty Mart". I wish I could have seen such a store; it supposedly had everything at low prices. I was born a few years before The Supreme One took over. So even if I'd seen such things; I was too young to remember them now.

I reach the MoleRats Suite and find Rufus Prime in the center of the many hairless rodents.

"Rufus Prime!" I call out breathlessly.

He squeals happily and leaps from his pedastal. He crawls into my pocket;just as happy to be there as surrounded by adoring desendants.

"I get to go on my first mission," I whisper to him.

He croons happily.

"Wanna go too?" I ask, knowing that he's considered a veteran among molerats.

He nods vigorously and burrows deeper into my pocket. I smile. I've gone up in status here in the few minutes it for my mother to make a decision. I can't wait to go and battle evil.
