Hey, I've been writing up a storm today since I stayed home sick from school today! (nothing better than snowboarding in nuthin but sneaks, jeans, and a T-shirt to get the creative juices flowin! P) well anyway, here's the next chapt!

………………

"GO, GO, GO!" 1 yelled as he motioned for each operative to jump out the emergency hatch at the back of the cool bus. 3 was struggling with the straps of her emergency chute when one pushed her out, so she was hanging onto her pack for dear life during descent. 1 soon followed her out, a split second before the cool bus erupted into flame, sending a shower of red and gold lights across the horizon, the delightful's mansion clearly visible in the distance.

"Ouch!" 3 complained when she landed in a tree, 10 feet from the ground. She started to untangle herself when she heard voices a few feet away in the clearing she would have very much liked to land in.

………………

"Arhh! I can't believe numbuh three could be so stupid! Now she's jeopardized the entire mission! The Delightful's are now aware of our location and that we were heading their way!" 1 said in rage.

"Aww, don't take it seriously, it was just an accident." 5 commented.

"TAKE IT SO SERIOUSLY! THAT'S HER PROBLEM! SHE NEVER TAKES ANYTHING SERIOUSLY! SHE'S HARDLY EVER DOES ANYTHING BUT HINDER MY MISSIONS!" 1 roared.

"Now hold up, numbuh one, one, they aren't your missions, 2, she can be serious and she has helped us out of several tight places before!" 5 retorted, her anger starting to rise.

"NAME ONE TIME THAT SHE HAS HELPED US!" 1 challenged.

"Well, she-um…" 5 stammered. "She executed her birthday mission with style!" 5 finally declared.

"If I remember correctly, she had us going on a wild –uh shark chase first!" 1 snapped.

"Well…" 5 started.

"Hey! Where is numbuh 3?" 4 inquired.

"WHO CARES! WE'LL HAVE A BETTER CHANCE AT DEFEATING THE DELIGHTFULS IF SHE JUST STAYS OUT OF OUR WAY!" 1 roared once again, "NOW LET'S MOVE OUT!"

Dejectedly, numbuhs 2,4, and 5 slowly followed one to the direction of the delightful's mansion.

5 was so upset that they were leaving numbuh 3 lost in the woods that she could have sworn she could hear her inner self crying…

………………

3 kept trying to stifle her tears so the others would not hear her, she thought that 5 had seen her for a brief moment, but couldn't tell for sure. 'it doesn't matter anyway,' she thought, 'they left me, and worse, numbuh one's right, when have I ever been of use to them?' she slowly climbed down the tree, then sat on the slearing floor, crying to her hearts content, awful thoughts flying through her head…

'Sometimes, I think that I'm not any good at all, and sometimes, I wonder why, why I'm even here at all…'

'What's the purpose? It feels worthless, so unwanted like I've lost all my value'

'And I'm just scared, so scared that I'll fail you…'

………………

Well, that's chapter 3! If you wanna listen to this song, go to my authors page, I have a link there! (btw, the song is 'more than uselss' by Relient K –I'm so surprised, I think I could faint…)
