Virtual loveChapter 3: Katie keeps trying
Numbuh 1 followed Numbuh 5, but he couldn't get his dream out off his head. He knew many dreams often looked real, but this one was different. This dream didn't only look real; it wasn't normal either. Numbuh 1 had the feeling Katie had really tried to contact him. But come on, why would she do that by penetrating his dream? And what did she try to say before Numbuh 5 had waked him up? He knew it was important. But he didn't know what it was. Anyway, he had to fight those Delightful Dorks now. There was no time for dreaming.
"The Delightful Children are destroying the Treehouse," Numbuh 5 explained. "And their machine is so big and strong that we can't fight them. We really need you, Numbuh 1."
"But maybe that means we have to contact the Moonbase for reinforcements," Numbuh 1 said.
"You're right. Go and contact the Moonbase. We will keep trying to stop the Delightfuls."
Numbuh 1 ran over to the room where Numbuh 65.3 always gave the team their missions, while Numbuh 5 ran over to the room with the giant TV screen. Because that's where the Delightful Children were destroying the Treehouse at the moment.
She entered the room and she couldn't believe what she saw. The whole room was destroyed. Numbuh 2 and Numbuh 3 were lying on the ground. They probably were unconscious. Numbuh 4 was sitting next to Numbuh 3, holding his weapon. The Delightful Children were gone.
"Numbuh 4! What happened here? Where are the Delightful Children?" Numbuh 5 ran over to her teammate.
"I don't know, Numbuh 5. It happened so fast. Their giant machine had a big claw, which destroyed the whole room. It hit Numbuh 2 and Numbuh 3 too. They're unconscious. What should we do now?"
"I think we have to wait until Numbuh 1 has contacted the Moonbase. We need reinforcements."
"Okay…" Numbuh 4 turned his face to Numbuh 3 and whispered: "Numbuh 3, please wake up."
"What's the matter? Something's wrong with Numbuh 3?" Numbuh 5 asked.
"Ehm, I don't think so. I'm just… worried, that's all." Numbuh 4 blushed.
Numbuh 5 grinned.
"Hey! It's not what you think! I was gonna check if Numbuh 2 was okay too!" Numbuh 4 said angrily.
"Okay, whatever." Numbuh 5 was still grinning.
Numbuh 1 contacted the Moonbase and soon he saw Numbuh 362 on the screen.
"Hi Numbuh 1, what's up?"
"Numbuh 362, we need help! The Delightful Children From Down The Lane are attacking the Treehouse. They are too strong. Can you help us?"
"Of course, Numbuh 1. I will--"
Suddenly Numbuh 362 disappeared from the screen and it turned black.
"What the-- NO! Numbuh 362, can you here me?" Numbuh 1 asked while hoping that his thoughts weren't true.
Suddenly a person appeared on the screen. And it wasn't Numbuh 362.
"Katie! O no, not again! What's going on here? Am I dreaming again?"
"No Nigel, you're not. I'm trying to contact you again, because I have to tell you something. But if you wanna know what, you must come to me. Come to me Nigel, come…"
Katie raised her hand at Numbuh 1, but he still thought he was dreaming or something like that.
"No, no! This can't be happening! Katie, what are you doing on that screen? I have to contact the Moonbase! My team is in danger. You here me? In danger! So go away from the screen!"
But Katie kept calling him. "Come to me, come Nigel…"
"Stop that! Are you crazy Katie? If you don't stop, the Treehouse will be destroyed! Together with my team and me! So stop that nons--"
Suddenly a giant claw came through the wall and destroyed it. It almost hit the screen, but suddenly it headed for Numbuh 1 and gripped him.
"ARGH! Let go off me!" Numbuh 1 yelled. He didn't look at the screen anymore, but Katie was still there. She looked angrily at the claw.
Katie's POV
Darn! Failed again! Stupid claw, it broke the contact with my Nigel. That claw will kill him. I have to help him. But how?
Normal POV
Katie disappeared from the screen and suddenly she stood in front of it. She had travelled from the computer-world to the real world. She ran out off the room to search Numbuh 1's teammates. It was the only way to save him. Suddenly she turned around and looked at the hole in the wall, which the giant claw had made. She grinned and thought: 'Or not?'
"Well well, it seems that Nigel and his little team-mates can't fight our newest machine, can they?" five monotone voices said at the same time.
Numbuh 1 tried to get loose off the claw, but it held him too tight. He couldn't escape.
The claw came from a giant machine. It kinda looked like the one the Delightful Children used in Operation: G.R.O.W.U.P. But this time it was stronger. Numbuh 1 had immediately noticed that when the claw grabbed him.
The Delightful Children brought the claw near them and said: "And what are you gonna do now, Nigel?"
Numbuh 1 ignored the question and yelled: "What have you freaks done to my team-mates?"
"O, don't worry. They are fine. We think."
Meanwhile Katie ran over to the machine, without the Delightfuls noticing her. While standing near the giant machine she thought: 'If I have the gift to travel to computer-worlds, then why shouldn't I have the gift to travel to this one?'
A few seconds later she disappeared and travelled to the computer of the Delightful machine. She already knew what she was gonna do.
Meanwhile the Delightful Children brought the claw nearer to them and suddenly another claw appeared out off the machine.
"Say goodbye, Nigel," they said.
Suddenly something weird happened. The second claw raised to the Delightful Children and not to Numbuh 1.
"What the-- Hey! Stop that!" The Delighful Child with the same hairstyle as Numbuh 4 pushed a few buttons, but the machine started wiggling and suddenly the claw, which was holding Numbuh 1, let him go.
After a few seconds it looked like the machine was broken and suddenly it collapsed.
At the same moment Katie suddenly appeared next to the machine and grinned, because she was the one who had broken its computer.
But Numbuh 1 didn't notice her. He quickly ran into the Treehouse to find his teammates. Maybe they were in danger.
Katie looked angrily at him.
Katie's POV
What the-- I thought he'd at least see me now! But he didn't even thank me! But I'm not angry with him. I know why he didn't see me. Because of his teammates. His teammates seem to be more important than me. So I just have to get rid of them and then I shall finally have him for myself…
A/N: O no! Katie starts turning evil! grins evillyMaybe you guys don't know her like that but hey! It's just a fanfic! Sometimes I describe people but not how they really are. Anyway, I hope you liked this chapter. And please don't mind the mistakes. I have the feeling I have lots of them in this chapter. Please review!
