Chapter One

Beep-Beep-Beep

'Everyone please report to the Med Lab immediately!' rang Numbuh 1's voice through the speaker.

5 minutes later

Numbuhs 1, 2, 3 and 5 arrived at the Med Lab in their PJs looking very sleepy in the Med Lab surrounding a bed in which Numbuh 4 was laying on, wrapped in bandages, barely conscious due to heavy injury.

'Why are you waking us up at 3am in the morning Num – oh…' Numbuh 5's words faded away as she saw Numbuh 4

'What happened Numbuh 4?' asked Numbuh 5 as some trained KND operatives; experts on medicine were doing their best. The rest of the team only heard gurgling sounds as Numbuh 4 made a desperate attempt to talk.

Numbuh 1 answered for him, 'Take rest Numbuh 4' turning to face the team 'He was on a top secret KND mission which you shouldn't ask me about … since I that information only Numbuh 362 does. He was late in retrieving the gadget x. Sector P was sent on a search mission and they found him but he was injured and the rest is as you see before you'.

'What's Gadget X?' asked Numbuh 2

'Look, I said only Numbuh 362 knows about that' answered Numbuh 1, 'so I really don't have a clue'

'But why did they send Numbuh 4? Asked Numbuh 3

Numbuh 1 stared as everyone started to shoot question to him, until finally he just pressed a button on the Supuh Big Computer that reached any KND headquarters around the world.

Numbuh 362 appeared on screen. 'Numbuh 362, we want to know what happened to Numbuh 4' Numbuh 1 asked.

Numbuh 362 looked around the room 'Alright. You see Numbuh 4 knows the underground school route like the palm of his hand. I guess it's mainly due to the various number of times he escaped from school. I contacted you 3 days ago to inform you about Gadget X but the only one in the room was Numbuh 4. I told him and he readily agreed to take on the mission by himself. I tried to protest but he won so he went by himself. I thought it would be a simple mission, just to retrieve Gadget X but it seems to be guarded by a number of things that we're not sure of. The underground lair appears to be un-plotable on all of our KND two-by-four detection technology. So I want you 4 to get Gadget X. I'm sending Numbuh 31 to substitute; Numbuh 31 specializes in the same categories as Numbuh 4.'

'What Gadget X?' Numbuh 2 asked again

'It's a top secret thing the adults have developed over the past 5 years'

'What does it do?' asked Numbuh 1

'The only thing we know is that it can disguise anything and by anything, I mean anything. We know it can do a lot of other stuff but we haven't figured out that yet'

'So when do you want us to go on this mission?' Numbuh 5 asked

'You go to school today as usual and pretend nothing is wrong. You should not speak of your mission to anyone not even your fellow operatives since you may never know who could be hearing you or who could be a spy; then after dark, you break into the school. Numbuh 31 will come here at 5pm' Numbuh 362 said, 'So does anyone have any questions?'

'Can we get back to sleep?' Numbuh 3 asked sleepily

Later that day

'What are you two doing?' Numbuh 5 asked at she walked into Numbuh 1's room.

Numbuhs 2 were standing in front of the mirror desperately trying to tame his hair and Numbuh 1 was glaring at him; tapping his feet obviously annoyed; Numbuhs 2 immediately stopped as he spotted Numbuh 5.

Numbuh 1 still had that annoyed expression on his face and said to Numbuh 5 'Numbuh 31's photograph and password to initiate code of recognition came by email just now. Numbuh 2 just realized how pretty Numbuh 31 was' Numbuh 1 added.

Numbuh 5 chuckled and said, 'Well you better think fast you smooth operator cause Numbuh 31 just arrived. Numbuh 3 is just showing Numbuh 31 her Rainbow Monkey collection.'

Numbuh 2 gave a great yelp 'How do I look?'

They walked into Numbuh 3's room. Numbuh 3 was dragging Numbuh 31 around her room. She was presently showing Numbuh 31 her crimson and black Rainbow Monkey (There was a whole new brand of multi-colored Rainbow Monkeys).

'Look we really need to get ready for this mission' said Numbuh 1

'Sure thing' Numbuh 31 said, looking like she'd be anywhere but in Numbuh 3's Rainbow Monkey filled room.

Numbuh 31 had stepped out from behind a huge Rainbow Monkey (Numbuh 2 had rubbed his hand over his hair trying to act cool). Numbuh 31 had fair skin; dark red hair tied a ponytail at the back of her head (Numbuh 5 couldn't see what all the big fuss was with Numbuh 2 – Numbuh 31 seemed pretty plain and normal); she wore a black full-sleeve top and black pants; she was holding a black piece of cloth as well.

'What's with all the black?' asked Numbuh 1, for some reason he still seemed annoyed about something

'Oh, didn't Numbuh 362 tell you? We're supposed to wear black on this mission as camouflage' Numbuh 362 said.

They took off by bikes loaded with KND weapons (to not look suspicious) to the school around 5:10pm. They arrived 10 minutes later to the block where the school was located.

Numbuh 1 stepped up to a manhole cover and tapped it at a few places (like a password). The cover loosened, Numbuh 1 pushed it aside with his foot and looked inside, it was complete darkness

Numbuh 1 put on his flashlight (which was on his helmet) and jumped in. The others just stared at where he jumped into

'Well, what are you waiting for? Come get in here you guys!' Numbuh 1 yelled from somewhere in the darkness.

The rest jumped in (covering the manhole behind them). They expected to land in stinky dirty pipes but they landed on smooth grounds, in fact, too smooth. As soon as they landed, they slipped and landed one on top of the other.

The walked for what seemed like 20 minutes until Numbuh 31 said 'Do we even know where we are going?'

'Yes we d–' started Numbuh 3 then suddenly she stopped, everyone turned to look at her.

They could see Numbuh 3 leaning on the wall and the falling through it, like she was leaning on water. The others sprinted to the dark wall. Numbuh 2 banged his hand on the wall only to draw his hand back quickly like he touched coal

'It's freezing!'

'What are y–' started Numbuh 31 then she too sank through the dark wall.

Numbuh 5 examined the wall and said 'It seems ta an enchantment' Numbuh 5 thought for sometime 'Wait! Say nathing! I think we sink in when we use the letter after 'N''

'What 'O'?' Numbuh 2 asked before he too fell into the wall

'Numbuh 2, Numbuh 3, Numbuh 31, can ya'll hear me?' Numbuh 5 asked while pressing her ears to the wall

Numbuh 1 joined her 'Say ss … um … say things!'

They only heard muffled sounds coming from the other side. 'We'll find a way to help ya'll auta there' Numbuh 5 shouted

On the other side of the wall

Numbuh 2 stumbled through the now bright yellow wall; he looked around the brightly lit room. There were bright yellow walls and ceiling. The floor was white marble; there were posh furniture in the room which was carefully decorated. And in the middle of the room stood two boys about Numbuh 2's age whom he didn't recognize immediately. They had the same puzzled look on their faces as they looked at each other and at Numbuh 2.

"They look oddly familiar" thought Numbuh 2 as he looked at them "Just can't put my finger on it". He looked down at what was tickling his ankles. He noticed he was wearing a dress.

'Huh? I'm wearing a dress!' Numbuh 2 said in a voice he himself didn't recognize. He touched his face and head. His face seemed normal but he wasn't wearing his pilot's cap and he had his hair in two ponytails at the side of his head. 'I'm … I'm … a GIRL!'


A/N: Well that was my first chapter 1, I couldn't find out what to call the chapter, so it's just 'Chapter 1'. What'd you think? Please leave a comment … please? You can suggest some stuff that I can improve. This is my first Fan Fiction too.
