Chapter 2
'I'm … I'm … a GIRL!' Numbuh 2 exclaimed. The two boys walked over to him … or should I say her?
Numbuh 2 looked at the two boys; the first boy was thin and weedy looking with black hair hidden under a baseball cap. He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with black jeans. The second boy was a rather good looking one, with a fair complexion, rich bright red hair flying over his shoulders as he walked over to Numbuh 2. He was wearing a white vest under a maroon jacket with dark-blue jeans that had the word 'Bloo' over one pocket.
'Numbuh 3? ... Numbuh 31…?' Numbuh 2 asked surprised 'What do you think happened?'
Numbuh 31 said 'Well isn't it obvious? This must have Gadget X's technology. It must turn us into our polar opposites … So that must be why Numbuh 3 is all sulky…' sounding as if pointing the obvious … which of course, he was
'Look we need stop all this staling and find a way out of here' said Numbuh 3, he sounded extremely mature. He had his hand in his pocket and anyone could guess he was doing some serious thinking
Numbuh 3 finally spoke 'There must've been something we all said that activated this … thing.
Numbuh 2 walked over to him 'Yes Numbuh 5 said there was a letter we said that activated it, "O"'
Suddenly, they all heard Numbuh 5's voice so clearly as if she was standing so close to them. They all jumped as they heard Numbuh 5 say 'Numbuh 2, Numbuh 3, Numbuh 31, can ya'll hear me?'
A second later, they heard Numbuh 1 say 'Say ss … um … say things!'
They all (Numbuhs 3, 31 and 2) ran to the wall and started talking at the same time:
Numbuh 2: Get us outta here!
Numbuh 3: HELP!
Numbuh 31: HELP! PLEASE GET US OUT OF HERE! NUMBUH 1! NUMBUH 5!
(The rest was un-understandable)
'We can't hear ya'll … we'll find a way to help ya'll auta there' Numbuh 5 shouted
They heard Numbuhs 1 and 5's footsteps fade away
'I noticed that they were careful enough to not say "O"' Numbuh 3 said
Numbuh 1 and 5
They were walking away from the wall that Numbuhs 2, 3 and 31 disappeared into (They had marked it with a big 'X"). They walked to what seemed like five minutes.
Numbuh 5 stopped suddenly, causing Numbuh 1 to crash into her, 'Did you hear that?' she asked in a hushed voice
'N – No…' Numbuh 1 said 'I mean yes…'. Then suddenly, he too heard something moving towards them, with deep breathing. Numbuh 1 was shaking with fear; Numbuh 5 was standing transfixed, squinting in the darkness at the spot where the noise was come from.
Then suddenly, a short dark figure stepped out from the shadows, Numbuh 1 and 5 screamed on the top of their lungs 'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH……….!'
Back at the Med Lab, just after Numbuhs 1,2,3,5 and 31 left
Several operatives were bending over Numbuh 4, as they had just finished operating on him. They were waiting for him to recover, and just then Numbuh 4 stirred. Everyone cheered. Numbuh 4 tried to sit up and then said 'NOOO … I LEFT HIM BEHIND … I NEED TO – stop pushing me!' Numbuh 4 was being pushed down to the bed and they were trying to keep him down. Numbuh 191 was calling Numbuh 362
'We have a problem'
'What is it now?'
'Numbuh 4 has recovered but he seems a bit … hysterical'
'Hysterical?'
'Look' Numbuh 191 said and diverted the screen to the bed where Numbuh 4 was now biting his pillow and saying (muffled) 'He's … trapped … geajinano … haripiff … agro … stoopid … me …'
'Give him the 3Pr56' Numbuh 362 said after some thought
'Righto'
End Transmission
Numbuh 191 ran up to the other struggling operatives 'Numbuh 362 said to use 3Pr56, if all else fails'
Numbuh 74 ran to Numbuh 4 with a plate and banged his head lightly, Numbuh 4 went unconscious (That was 3Pr56)
Numbuh 191 jumped on top of an empty bed and said 'Okay gang, we're done here. Numbuh 362 said we could leave once we've finished operating. Everyone who's going to the ice cream parlor can come with me.'
After everyone left, Numbuh 4 opened his eyes, he had been pretending of course. He got out and noticed he was just wearing his underwear. Embarrassed, he pulled on his clothes and loaded himself with KND weapons and snuck out.
In the yellow room
Numbuh 31 was searching for an exit at every corner; Numbuh 2 was curled into a ball on a chair and rocking back and forth; Numbuh 3 was just sitting perfectly still on a sofa, lost in thought.
Suddenly, they all heard a distant screams, they guessed came from Numbuhs 1 and 5 but they knew they couldn't do anything about it.
'That's it! It was so obvious … Why didn't anyone think of this before' Numbuh 3 shouted causing everyone to jump.
'If a letter activated the wall to pull us in then something must active it to pull us out!' Numbuh 3 exclaimed.
Numbuh 31 ran to the wall they came in through and started to recite all the alphabets … in a wrong order.
'A…T…H…F…Q…Y…W…E…R…U…I…O…P…A…S…D…G…J…K…L…X…C…V…B…N…M…uh…anymore?'
Numbuh 3 sighed, annoyed and said the alphabets in the right order. And as he reached 'Z', he sank into the wall.
Numbuh 2 and 31 said 'Z' together and they too, sank in through the wall.
Back to Numbuh 4 (A little back in time)
Numbuh 4 had just ascended into the manhole and had switched on his flashlight. He walked forward for some time until he heard, in some distance:
'Numbuh 2, Numbuh 3, Numbuh 31, can ya'll hear me?'
'Say ss … um … say things!'
Numbuh 4 took some time to register what he had just heard. "That was Numbuh 5 and Numbuh 1 … am I just imagining these things? … why does that sound like Numbuh 5 and Numbuh 1 … they're back at the tree house … Why is my underwear so annoying … Why am I bothered about these voices … I'll just walk around this corridor … I know the way …" Numbuh 4 thought (It took him 2 minutes).
Numbuh 4 just walked past that corridor and continued to walk then he heard 'We can't hear ya'll … we'll find a way to help ya'll auta there'. And Numbuh 4 just ran at the sound of that.
He kept on running for about 5 minutes then he stopped for a breath. He breathing heavily then he heard someone say:
'Did you hear that?
'N – No…'. Numbuh 4 just sneezed
'I mean yes…'
Numbuh 4 recognized the voices as Numbuhs 1 and 5. He stepped forward then both of them just screamed 'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH……….!'
Numbuh 4 was shocked as they screamed and tried to hush them up. After a while, Numbuh 5 looked at Numbuh 4 closely and said 'Numbuh 4 … is that you?'
'Course it's me!'
Numbuh 1 was cowering behind Numbuh 5; he looked and said 'You don't … I mean … what happened to your face … it's all … messed up …'
Numbuh 4 looked scared as he touched his face 'HUH?'. His face had had a million bumps … like minute pimples all over his face except for his eyes. Numbuh 4 let of a gasped in fear.
A/N: Well that was chapter two … what'd you think? Please leave a review and tell me what you think … please? I know it says there's romance, but that comes in the next chapter. Leave a suggestion too if you want to.
