You Always Make me Smile, no Matter What
Chapter Five- Decommissioning Day
By Cyrix
Being a KND operative is the best thing a kid wants to be. Kicking Adults and Teens' butts, going on missions and other things that make any kid want to join the KND. However, for every good thing, there is also a price to pay. All KND operatives, once they turn 13, MUST get decommissioned… It is hard to say goodbye to your teammates, especially if one of the teammate is your girlfriend…
"Wake up! Wake up! It is your 13th birthday! YAY!" my cruddy alarm clock went off. I turn off the alarm clock and got out of bed. Today is the day… Sighs… Well it was going to come sooner or later… I wonder how the others feel… Especially Kuki… Sighs…
I brush my teeth and wash my face in the bathroom. Then I got dressed and went down for breakfast. For some strange reason, the shades are all pull down. It is really dark in the room. I walk over to the light switch and turn it on.
"SURPRISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Numbuhs One, Two, Three and Five shout at me with excitement. I see a table filled with presents and another table with a cake in the middle. On top of the cake there are the words "three and four forever!" I blush a little when I see that on the cake. But then I remember that I am 13 years old and look away so they won't see me crying. Numbuh Three notices me do that and walks over to me. I can't believe it! I am crying! Me? Wallabee Beetles is crying?
"Numbuh Four? Wally?" she asks me and pats me on the back. I turn around and see Numbuh Three crying also. I hug her and she hugs me back.
"Come on Kuki… Let's go celebrate my birthday…" I tell her sadly while trying to smile. She nods her head and also tries to smile. We walk over to the others. Numbuhs One, Two and Five look at me and then went to sit down at their seats. Kuki and I did the same thing too. There is silence for a few minutes until finally Kuki starts to sing.
"Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you!" she sings out loud. Then the rest starts to join in also.
"Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to… Numbuh Four! Happy birthday to YOU!" they all chant out loud. I look at them while they are singing to me. They all have smiles on their faces, but I know deep down they are sad. I try not to think about decommissioning, but it is really hard to forget something like that. After the song, I open my presents while they eat the cake and watch me. I got the video game I wanted so badly from Numbuh One. I got a Yipper 100, a very rare card, from Numbuh Two. I got a pair of punching gloves from Numbuh Five. Last, but never the least, Numbuh Three gave me the Best Friends Forever Rainbow Monkey and a key chain attached to it. I look at the key chain, on it says 1314 with a heart attach on the bottom. It is too much for me as I look at the chain. I run out of the room with all my presents toward my room.
I heard Kuki shout after me "Wally!" I got to my room and drop all the presents on the floor. Why I am crying? Why? Why! I bang on the wall a few times and fall down on my knees sobbing. Suddenly I felt someone hug me and I cry even harder. I turn around and see Kuki crying also. Seeing her like that made me hug her. We stay like that for a few minutes. We break apart when we heard someone clears his throat.
"Numbuh Four, we got to go now before Numbuh 86 barges in here and takes you by force" Numbuh One tells me in a serious tone but with a sad face.
"Yeah, I know…" I reply. They all take turns hugging me and patting my back. Finally they all left except Kuki. She kept standing there looking around my empty room. Then she turns to leave when I call her back.
"Kuki! Wait!" I call after her. She stops at her tracks and turn around.
"Yeah?" she asks me. I blush a little and take her hands.
"You always make me smile…" I tell her and pause a bit. "No matter what" I tell her and smile at her. "I love you… Kuki Sanban. I will NEVER forget you" I tell her. She smiles at me with tears rolling out of her eyes. Then she lean forward and kiss me on the lips.
After we break apart, she tells me and smiles at me "I love you too… Wallabee Beetles! I also will NEVER forget you!" We hug again for a while and then went to meet with the others at the ship dock.
We got to KND Moonbase HQ just in time. As I walk out of the spaceship, there are two KND operatives and Numbuh 86 standing there.
"Numbuh Four of Sector V, do you want to come quietly or we have to use force?" Numbuh 86 asks me. I turn around and look back at Kuki. She nods her head and I nod back. I turn to Numbuh 86 again.
"I will come quietly" I tell her. Numbuh 86 is very shock. She probably thought I will put up a fight.
"Okay… then follow me Numbuh Four" she tells me and walk toward a door. I follow her as well as my teammates. I walk into the room expecting a decommissioning room except I see a big auditorium fill with all the KND operatives. Numbuh 362 is standing there near the microphone.
"And here they are Sector V!" Numbuh 362 shouts out to the audience and point at us. They all clap and cheer for us. We all look shock and surprise at all this. We walk up to her near the microphone.
"Numbuh 362 what is all this?" Numbuh One asks her confused. She looks and smiles at him.
"What? You thought we are going to decommission the best Sector in the whole KND without a special goodbye?" she tells him. We all just look around dumbfounded. Finally, we sit at the chairs that were set up for us. Numbuh 362 turn back to the audience.
Listen to "A Moment like This" by Kelly Clarkson
"Today Numbuh Four or Wallabee Beetles is getting decommission… Lets see what he accomplished during his time with us" she said sadly and motion to start the slideshow. We all watch the slideshow as it show each of the things I accomplished. Watching it made me have a lot of memories and almost made me cry again. Just as it is about to end, it show me and Kuki in my room.
"And the hardest thing Wallabee Beetles accomplished is…" a voice in the show said. Then it shows me grabbing her hands.
"You always make me smile…" I tell her and pause a bit. "No matter what" I tell her and smile at her. "I love you… Kuki Sanban. I will NEVER forget you" I tell her. I stare at the slideshow in shock and turn toward Kuki who also stares at it shock. We both blush as the audience goes "Oooooooo!" Then it shows Kuki smiling at me.
"I love you… Wallabee Beetles! I also will NEVER forget you!" she tells me. Kuki and I turn even redder as the audience goes "Awww!" Then the worst part came, it show us kissing at the hospital. "Telling Kuki Sanban his feelings! A round of applause for him for accomplishing this hard task!" the voice continues saying. Then it shows all the good times Kuki and I had together. Finally the cruddy slideshow ends. Everybody then starts to clap and chant "Wallabee and Kuki!" I swear Kuki and my face are so red once again. Sheesh! How come we always get very embarrassed?
Then the moment of truth finally came. Numbuh 86 came over with my cake with the number 13 on top.
"Blow out your candles Numbuh Four" she tells me. I am surprise it was not harsh. I blow at the candles and look at the smoke go up into the ceiling. I turn to my teammates who are all looking at me sadly. I look at Numbuh One.
"Numbuh One… You were the best leader an operative could ever have… Thanks…" I tell him.
"Yeah, you're welcome… You were the best teammate Numbuh Four… Always ready for missions… You help this Sector a lot… You should be proud… Thanks…" he replies back to me and shakes my hand. I nod my head. I look at Numbuh Two.
"Numbuh Two… You were the best friend a boy could every have… I enjoyed all the good times we had… Thanks…" I tell him.
"You too buddy… Numbuh Four… I will miss you… Thanks for being my friend…" he replies back to me and hugs me. Somewhere in the audience, I heard a sniffle. I look at Numbuh Five.
"Numbuh Five… thanks for putting up with me all these years… I know we fought a lot, but I think… your cool…" I tell her.
"No problem Numbuh Four… Thanks… You are pretty cool yourself too… I am glad that you were my teammate…" she replies back to me and hug me also. I turn toward my last teammate or should I say my girlfriend.
"Numbuh Three… No… Kuki… I…" I try to say as I start crying. Kuki walks up to me and start crying also. "I… LOVE YOU SO MUCH! I am going to miss you so much! I will never forget you no matter what!" I shout out loud. She smiles at me.
"I know Wally… I LOVE YOU ALSO SO MUCH MORE THAN RAINBOW MONKEYS TOO! I don't know how I will live without you!" she shouts and hugs me tightly. We both stand there hugging as everyone watches us. We break apart and stare at each other until Numbuh 86 came over to us.
Listen to "Take Me to Your Heart" by MLTR
"Numbuh Four… It is time…" she tells me and lowers her head. I nod my head and walk toward the decommissioning room. All of a sudden people start to cry and soon the whole room is crying. I walk slowly toward the room looking at the ground. I turn back and take a look at my teammates one last time before I step into the room. I sit on the chair as the operatives set everything up. Numbuh 86 walk over to the control panel.
"Good bye Numbuh Four…" she said to me as she is about to push the button. I close my eyes waiting for the plunger to come down on my head.
"WAIT!" I heard Kuki scream. I open my eyes and sees Kuki running into the room.
"If he is getting decommissioned, I want to get decommissioned with him!" she shouts with tears coming down her face.
"You sure Numbuh Three? You still have a lot of months before you turn 13" Numbuh 86 asks and tells her.
"Yes! If Wally is going, I am going with him!" she replies back. I smiled as I heard all this and a tear run down my face.
"Fine! Strap her in too!" she orders one of the operatives. They went and put Kuki on a seat also. She went to the button and is about to push it again.
"Hold on!" Numbuh Five shouts out loud.
"What!" Numbuh 86 asks her.
"If Numbuh Three is getting decommissioned, Numbuh Five wants to be decommissioned too!" Numbuh Five tells her. Numbuh 86 sighs.
"Okay strap her in too" she orders the operatives.
"Wait a minute!" Numbuh Two shouts out loud.
"Ugh! What is it this time?" she asks him beginning to get annoyed.
"Since Numbuh Five is going, I am going too! Because I can't live without her!" he blurt out loud. Numbuh Five looks shocked. He turns toward her and shout at her "I love you Abby!"
Numbuh Five looks at him and smiles back "I love you too Hoagie!"
"Okay! Strap him in too! Anybody else?" Numbuh 86 irritated asks. Numbuh One clears his throat.
Numbuh 86 smacks her head and asks him "You too Numbuh One?" He nods his head in agreement.
"Since all my teammates are going, I am going with them!" he shouts loudly. We all smile as we heard that.
"Okay! Strap him in then!" she orders them. Soon all of Sector V is strap onto the seat.
I look at each of them and tell them "Thanks guys!" They all give the thumbs up sign to me. I turn and smile at Kuki who smile back at me. Everybody is shocked at what just happened. Then they start to chant each of our names by our codenames. Numbuh 362 saluted us and we saluted back.
"Nigel! Hoagie! Hoagie! Kuki! Kuki! Kuki! Wally! Wally! Wally! Wally! Abby! Abby! Abby! Abby! Abby!" they chant as Numbuh 86 finally pushes the button and the plungers came on top of our head and suck away all our memories.
Decommissioning can be a very painful time for many kids. But with loyal teammates like me, it can actually be less painful! Even though we all lost our memories of each other. I know faith will put us back together one day in our afterlife after the KND… Especially for Kuki and me… This may seem like the end of our relationship, but it is actually just the beginning!
