Authors Note: Sorry for the long update time! I've been completely swamped with homework. But with summer comming up, I'll be able to update more quickly. In other news, i'm very happy to report that I've broken my own review record! My previous record was 14 reviews for my 7 chapter story "Goodbye Patrick" (which I have now deleted from the site). And now, using only 3 chapters, I have managed to recieve 15 reviews! Now I would like to thank the 5 people who reviewed my 3rd chapter and helped break the record:

sponge-fan: Thanks for the great review! I have read both "Scary School" and all thats been done of "Losing His Past". They're both great! As for the border line thing, your welcome. And thanks a lot for the idea comment!

A. Nonymous: Thanks for the review! I hope that my twist will be interesting.

anonymous critic: Thanks for reviewing! I think that your book will turn out great!

Purpleapostle: Thanks for the great review!


SpongeBob walked nervously through the dark passage's of the hideout. He had found that it was extremely large and that its underground caverns branched of into most of bikini bottom. Since it was a secret place, everything had to be done privatly. They had their own cook, a bank, even a builder to expand the place. At this time SpongeBob would usually be heading to bed, but tonight was different. Tonight he would be going to the reading room. He spent most of his time in the reading room. He enjoyed reading that book of prophecy's. As he approached the door he took a deep breath. What he was about to do would change his life forever. He slowly opened the door, and found that it was very dark. Other then a dim candle illuminating Jerry's face there was no light. Good, Jerry's here thought SpongeBob. "Hey Jerry" said SpongeBob nervously. "Oh, hi SpongeBob" said Jerry in a happy tone. "Remember that question that you asked me last week?" asked SpongeBob. He was reffering to the question of whether or not he would help battle. He had been thinking about it for a week, and now he had an answer. "Yeah, are you still thinking about it?" asked Jerry, who looked up from his book. "Yes, and I decided that I will battle with you" said SpongeBob. "Great!" said Jerry, who then walked out of the room.

The next day, SpongeBob was called to the reading room to meet with the battle squad. Upon entering, he was suprised to find that out of the hundreds of people who lived in the hide out, only about 5 were part of the battle squad, which was the only reason the hideout was there. "Hi" said a red fish. "Hello" said SpongeBob. "Hey SpongeBob! This is Nick" said Jerry happily. "Hi Nick!" said SpongeBob happily. "So are we going out yet?" he asked. "Almost" said Jerry. "We just have to wait for Rick". SpongeBob gulped nervously. "Rick's coming with us?" he asked. SpongeBob was still terrified of him. "Yep. Dont worry, he's harmless" relpied Jerry kindly. "You know how you said that there was a big bunch of guys that came back like him" asked SpongeBob, who was trying to ignore how sick he was feeling. "What happened to them?". Jerry, who was trying to fix a weapon, stole a glance at SpongeBob. "They never came back" he said in a unusually serious tone.

After a couple more minutes of waiting, Rick came into the room. Without speaking he walked slowly up to a wall full of weaponry and took a gun from it. He didnt even apologize for being late! thought SpongeBob angrily, this guys got some nerve! "Hey SpongeBob!" said Jerry, snapping SpongeBob out of his anger. "This is for you" he said, handing SpongeBob a gun. SpongeBob picked it up and found that it was quite heavy. "Listen SpongeBob, this guy that we're trying to kill, he has robots. They're deadly, so keep your eyes peeled for them. They tend to ambush anybody who has a gun" said a voice from behind SpongeBob. He was certain that it was Jerry, but when he turned around, he found that it was Nick. He was starting to like this guy. Just then, they began to climb up the stairs that led them out of the hideout and into battle.


Authors Note: Hope you liked the chapter! The next one will have a lot more action because they're going into battle, and for the little kids that are reading this (if there are any) the violence level will be pumped up a little bit. Again 5 reviews and I update. K, hope you liked it!
