Numbuh 1 and his team stopped at a roadblock in the middle of a street that led to the port "We are friends with one of the adventurers, we can help" Numbuh 1 said

"Sorry, only adventurer guild and senior guards past this point" The guard said followed by a loud explosion coming from the port's direction "As you can see, things are a little too heated up to let anyone in there right now" The guard said

Numbuh 1 left for an alley next to the main street after trying to convince the guard to no avail "Are we waiting?" Numbuh 5 asked

"We will just take a detour" Numbuh 1 smiled as he looked up the alley, it had a few windows where people were hanging their clothes by roped that went from one home to another, Numbuh 1 jumped on each of them until reaching the roof of the large buildings

Numbuh 5 just levitated herself along with Numbuh 2 "Show-off" Numbuh 5 smiled at Numbuh 1 as they set their sights to the port's direction


Numbuh 4 was crouching right next to a ship in flames along with a couple more barbarians with his ax resting on his shoulder, the ship had marks of tentacles around it while it sank "Are we paying for it?" Numbuh 4 asked

"It will be discounted from the guild's reward" A man in fancy clothes said while writing something on a clipboard

Numbuh 4 and the rest of the barbarians in the guild groaned in annoyance "Can't we just throw some explosives in the water and kill it?" Numbuh 4 said

"That would destroy the entire port silly" Numbuh 3 giggled as she approached behind him

Suddenly a tentacle surged from the water and went in their direction

Numbuh 3 sighed as she quickly drew a sign on the air that conjured a burst of ice that froze the tentacle in place, Numbuh 4 then jumped at the tentacle and shattered it in a thousand pieces "Let's just follow the plan" Numbuh 3 smiled at Numbuh 4 as she pointed her staff to the water along with other mages and started boiling the port water again

Numbuh 4 stood right next to Numbuh 3 protecting her as Tentacles started periodically leaving the water and tried to attack the mages

There was a thick fog when the Kraken finally surged from the water, it was at least the size of a moonbase, it let out a terrifying sound as it looked with anger at the mages who disturbed its peace

Numbuh 3 and the rest of the mages then conjured lightning bolts or fireballs and shot them all at once at the Kraken resulting in a huge explosion that dispersed the fog and made it rain in the harbor briefly, Numbuh 3 turned her back to the water and smiled at Numbuh 4 as a huge pillar of smoke was created around the water with a few pieces of the Kraken flying around "So? Are you going to celebrate with the others?"

"I guess, you coming?" Numbuh 4 asked

Numbuh 3 giggled "It would be my pleasure, let's get blind drunk ton-" Before Numbuh 3 could continue a tentacle wrapped itself around her waist along with other mages and barbarians

"NUMBUH 3!" Wally said as a tentacle burst out from the wood and grabbed Numbuh 4 as well, it then pulled him down and dragged him underwater, that was when Numbuh 4 noticed he dropped his ax on the port after getting caught, he then looked around and saw a few other mages and barbarians in a similar situation, Numbuh 3 was passed out in the grasp of a tentacle "I'M GONNA KILL THIS PIECE OF-" Before he could continue he saw Numbuh 5 landing on top of the tentacle Numbuh 3 was wrapped, she cut it and levitated the girl "ABBY!" Numbuh 4 smiled upon seeing his friend as she hurried away from the area with Numbuh 3

Numbuh 1 then jumped on top of the tentacle Numbuh 4 was wrapped in "Don't get all soft on us now Numbuh 4" He looked at him behind his shoulder as his two swords started glowing and then transformed into two giant arcane blades, Numbuh 1 started sweating and panting, he cut the tentacle Numbuh 4 was on and then started running along it cutting it in tiny pieces while rushing at the now very bruised Kraken as it looked at Numbuh 1 in hatred

"Took your sweet time…" Numbuh 4 said as he started falling, he looked to his side as he fell only to see Numbuh 2 on a roof near the port shooting at the Kraken's other tentacles with explosive bullets freeing the other adventurers, Numbuh 4 fell on the water after that

Numbuh 1 kept running along the Kraken's tentacle, he then took a deep breath as he pumped more magic energy from his arms to his blades as they started getting colossal, in one single motion Numbuh 1 cut the Kraken in half and immediately started falling, with no forces left to try landing Numbuh 1 passed out midair as the last thing he felt was his nose bleeding and severe pain all over his body

A few hours later Numbuh 1 out cold in a bed in a nearby clinic while a couple of mages administered healing magic on him as the rest of the team watched a bit afraid, his arms were very damaged with several cuts and bruises all over while nurses knelt next to the mages cleaning blood from his arms from time to time although it seemed bad his arms were healing quickly due to the mages' efforts, the mages stopped and gave space to a few nurses clean the blood and sweat on the rest of his body "He is stable, that was really dangerous though, two runic blades being used at full capacity by a non-mage? He could have exploded his arms if he kept it for too long" A tall buff woman in white and golden robes with horns said "Sorry for the bad manners, Official Arch-Mage for the crown, your majesty issued his very best to heal the hero responsible for killing the Kraken, He is a really strong fellow, he should wake up within a few days, I recommend you buy him a manual guide on runic blades, it seems he doesn't know how to use them properly, buy a magic arsenal for him as well so he can use other things besides the runic blades and last but not least have him increase his magic potential with potions so he can use the runic blades with less fatigue, The king would like to thank him as well, when he gets better an audience will be provided" The Arch-Mage said, she shook the hands of the rest of Sector V and took her leave in a hurry

Numbuh 1 started snoring after a while, his team watched him smiling "It seems he is just resting now, wanna get wasted?" Numbuh 4 looked at Numbuh 3 as they left the clinic

Numbuh 2 and Numbuh 5 looked at each other confused and followed the two "Wasted?" The two asked

"It means drunk" Numbuh 3 said

"Like… Drunk DRUNK?" Numbuh 2 asked them still confused

"The Adventurer's Guild has a bar" Numbuh 4 said as he approached a building with a plaque in the form of a sword

"But… You are kids" Numbuh 5 said

"Oh yeah, it was really weird for us at first too, the Dwarf kids drink starting at eight years old" Numbuh 3 laughed as they entered the adventurers guild, it was a two-store building with a bar on one side and an area full of boards filled with missions on the first floor, it had a counter divided in two with one attendant in each side one was dressed like a barkeep with several liquors behind him while the other was dressed in a more formal attire resembling an office worker with a few papers behind her

"If it isn't the friends of the hero, today is on the house for the four of you" The barkeep said and then looked at Kuki and Wally "You two aren't going to introduce your friends?" The barkeep asked, he was a bald dwarf with a white beard

"This is Hoagie, he is our tech guy" Numbuh 4 patted Hoagie on the back and then grabbed a giant mug of a black liquid and started drinking it, he felt it burn his throat as fire could be seen slightly coming out of his mouth, he had a relaxed look to his face as he gave it another taste "Ahhh… Dragon Drool is the best…" Numbuh 4 said

"D-Dragon Drool?" Numbuh 2 looked at him a bit grossed out

"It's a nickname… I guess?" Numbuh 4 laughed then gave it another sip

"This is Numbuh 5, she is the one I told you about, she is the cool one" Numbuh 3 giggled as she drank a cup of a purple liquid and sighed as her face started getting red "Thunderstorm is… pretty good…" Numbuh 3 said as she rested her elbow on the counter

"How is the hero?" The dwarf asked

"Don't call him that, it will get to his head" Numbuh 4 laughed "The crown arch-mage said he will wake up in a few days, said we should buy a bunch of stuff for Runic Swordsman like him"

Numbuh 3 smiled "Anyway, any sign of the others we talked to you about?" Numbuh 3 hiccuped

"No sign, I ask every new traveler that comes by each day to no avail" The dwarf said "You two are drinking or what?" The dwarf asked

Numbuh 2 sighed "What do you have that isn't too strong?"

"Mead" The Dwarf Poured a bottle of mead in a huge glass "With a single drop of machinist happiness since you are an engineer" The dwarf grabbed a bottle of a blue liquid and let one single drop fall in Numbuh 2's drink

Numbuh 2 gave it a sip and instantly felt more relaxed he looked at the barkeep with a content look "I feel all happy all of a sudden…" he said

"You gave him a mood swinger?" Numbuh 3 smiled at the dwarf

"He seemed a bit worried" The dwarf laughed

Numbuh 5 looked at the multitude of drinks "Before she decides to get drunk or not, Numbuh 5 wanted to know something, why necromancy is not allowed inside the city?" Abby asked him

"Oh, that's an easy one, The underground of the city holds the catacombs you see? It would be a problem if a loved one was raised from the dead by a necromancer so it's not permitted within city walls" The dwarf said

"Makes sense," Numbuh 5 looked at the variety of drinks behind the dwarf "Do you have something sweet like candy?"

The dwarf grabbed a red and white liquid and poured it into a mug "Peppermint Basilisk, it is pretty strong though, be careful" The dwarf said

Numbuh 5 gave it a whiff then smiled "It smells good" she said then drank some of it and smiled already feeling a bit drunk "What does it do?" she hiccuped

"It is a bit basic compared to the other stuff I have here, it leaves a peppermint taste in your mouth for a few hours" The Barkeep said

"Perfect" Numbuh 5 grinned as she gave it another sip

Late in the night Numbuh 4 was on top of a table branding his ax yelling at another drunk adventurer who laughed at him, Numbuh 3 was sleeping in a wind hammock she conjured while she hugged a giant bottle sleep talking with a drunk tone to her voice, Numbuh 2 and Numbuh 5 didn't drink much and were just talking amicably with the barkeep as they asked him about how to get in the adventurers' guild and about the things the arch-mage had recommended them to buy

The next day in the morning Numbuh 1 was still sleeping peacefully in the clinic, Numbuh 2 and Numbuh 5 were signing their admission in the adventurers guild while Numbuh 3 and Numbuh 4 were suffering the hangover from the previous day as they ate bread trying to cure it "One more thing, to get officially in the guild you need to complete a request of any level" the attendant said as she closed the book with Numbuh 2 and Numbuh 5 signatures

"We will take them on the commission we accepted today, is that okay?" Numbuh 4 asked the attendant as he finished his piece of bread

"Of course, be careful out there" The attendant said

"Sure Sure…" Numbuh 4 said as he left with the rest of the party "So, Numbuh 3 what are we doing today?"

"Bandit hiding in Mushroom cave in the east part of the forest area near the fields One single bandit stealing from the fields, It says here he wears a mask, he uses a crossbow and is pretty small and agile" Numbuh 3 said while reading a piece of paper

"Let's just beat the guy up" Numbuh 4 cracked his knuckles as they left town

About an hour later they had reached the area where the bandit was more active, it was deserted, a dirt road that bordered the forest and the fields with a cave barely visible through the trees on the forest side, a few ransacked wagons could be seen on the side of the road with arrows around it "No blood…" Numbuh 5 crouched and took a closer look at one of them. She then checked inside to find it empty "A bandit that doesn't kill?" Numbuh 5 scratched her chin

Numbuh 2 paused for a moment and looked at the cave "That path is full of traps" Numbuh 2 walked calmly out of the road towards the cave and stepped on a wire on the floor as a couple of wooden spears flew past his face into a tree right next to him "He could have set them up to hit me" Numbuh 2 smiled and kept walking "He just set them up to scare anyone who tried to enter the cave" he said as more traps kept being triggered but just barely missing him

"So what? Is the bandit a good guy?" Numbuh 4 asked while following Numbuh 2 along with the girls

"Too early to tell" Numbuh 5 said as they entered the cave, it was pitch dark there were no traps inside the cave, they kept walking until reaching an open area inside the cave with glowing mushrooms all around

Suddenly two masked figures rushed at them shooting arrows, one was holding two small crossbows while the other was holding just one crossbow although it seemed more potent

Numbuh 3 made a force field while Numbuh 4 got ready to rush at them with his sword but was stopped by Numbuh 5 who just paralyzed the two in place with her staff and levitated both near her

"Hey! It is you guys" A familiar feminine voice came from one of the masked figures

"I knew it" Numbuh 5 grinned as she released the two figures

The two figures took off their masks and revealed themselves as Lee and Sonia, Sonia was the one holding the strong crossbow, she wore a long light pink cape with a hoodie down, a pair of light gray shorts and a simple light purple shirt with a small breastplate that only covered the upper half of her torso on top of it, she rushed to Numbuh 5 and hugged her "We were so scared…" she said

"Scared enough to steal from others?" Numbuh 5 raised an eyebrow

"That was me" Lee raised his hand, he was the one using the two smaller crossbows, he wore a brown beret with a feather that covered his eyes like his usual hat, he wore black shorts and a simple dark blue and orange shirt, he also had a cape but it didn't have a hoodie like Sonia's "Sonia didn't wanna leave the cave since it was dark on the way out so I attacked the caravans that passed by so we could eat"

"At least no one was hurt" Numbuh 2 sighed

"L-Look… it is fine if we stay in the cave… We won't ste-" Before Sonia could finish Numbuh 5 waved her staff at the girl making her collapse on the floor

Lee grabbed the girl before she fell to the floor "What did you do?" Lee looked at Numbuh 5 a bit scared

"Sleep spell" Numbuh 5 patted the boy on the head "She will live" Numbuh 5 said

Numbuh 4 grabbed Sonia and carried her back to the adventurers' guild, after paying their fine for stealing and explaining the whole situation the crew went to the Inn Numbuh 4 and Numbuh 3 were staying and left Sonia in a bed

"Can't believe you were so close and we managed to find Numbuh 2 and Numbuh 5 first than you guys" Numbuh 3 said while healing a few bruises Lee had suffered the past week or so

"Let me see… Now we just need to find Numbuh 23, 35… 60, 86 and 362" Numbuh 4 said to himself

"And the Delightful Children from Down the Lane" Numbuh 5 crossed her arms a bit angry at Numbuh 4

"Nah, let's leave them here" Numbuh 4 laughed

"They are jerks but we can't leave them here" Numbuh 5 shrugged

"Do you even know how to go back?" Lee asked

Everyone paused for a second "We… We will think about this when we get everyone back together" Numbuh 4 smiled at Lee a bit nervous along with everyone

Sonia woke up after that then had lunch along with the other operatives and ended up signing herself along with Lee that afternoon for the adventurers' guild and went on a mission with Numbuh 2 and Numbuh 5 while Numbuh 3 and Numbuh 4 watched them

"Alright, we picked the ugliest thing we could come up with just so you don't feel bad for killing it" Numbuh 4 said while they stood in the fields, a giant bullfrog slept on top of the ruins of what once was a farmhouse, the sun was starting to settle

"Don't know why you went to the trouble… the cave had a few monsters as well" Lee said

"I wasn't talking about you" Numbuh 4 pointed at Sonia who was trembling a bit afraid

Lee approached Sonia and patted her on the head smiling at her "this will all be over soon, for now we need to keep it cool, alright?" He asked

Sonia stopped trembling and pulled her crossbow from her back, she nodded at Lee smiling at him

"The client who gave the mission said to avoid damaging the fields, no elemental or explosive stuff" Numbuh 3 said while reading a piece of paper

Numbuh 5 and 2 spread out while Sonia and Lee went together, they surrounded the frog in a triangle formation, Numbuh 2 started attacking by unloading his revolvers on the frog, his bullets bounced against the frog's thick hide "You gotta be kidding me…" Numbuh 2 said as the frog woke up and turned his attention to him, it quickly shot its tongue at Numbuh 2 who managed to barely dodge it, the frog shot its tongue again, Numbuh 2 dodge it again but this time he planted a bomb in the frog's tongue as it retracted "It won't be exploding at the field" he smiled

The bomb exploded inside the frog's belly but it only made it angrier as it jumped at Numbuh 2 who started to run away from it

Numbuh 5 had paused for a bit to read the magic book she had while watching Numbuh 2 run for his life "I haven't tried using these let's see…" Numbuh 5 smiled while reading a session on her book that talked about hexes she then started saying a few things in an indecipherable language as she focused on the frog and waved to her staff in his direction

Suddenly the frog fell on its face after failing to land after a high jump

Numbuh 5 then cast another hex on the frog doing the same ritual as the previous one but with a few different words that couldn't be understood by the rest of her friends

The frog felt itself getting weaker and less resistant

Lee and Sonia rushed at the frog, Sonia shot two bolts at the frog's face to draw its attention while Lee kept running in its direction, he then shot both his eyes with pinpoint accuracy and then jumped on his face to use it as a trampoline, he then focused some magic energy on his crossbows as his arrows inside it started glowing, Sonia did the same while on the ground, Lee was upside down as he took the shot together with Sonia, Both arrows he shot had a blue glow to them as they started creating ethereal copies of themselves midair as they rained down the Frog and Sonia's arrow grew in size and turned into a magic bolt and hit the frog right in the face stunning it while Lee's arrows kept raining down on it

Numbuh 3 applauded the duo "Where did you learn to use magic? weren't you in a cave?" Kuki asked while the frog lay dead full of small holes all over its body

"Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that" Lee said "This old guy greeted us when we woke up and taught us how to focus magic and then disappeared out of thin air, didn't even help us get out of the cave" Numbuh 84 said

"This is pretty important information" Numbuh 5 said "A guy helps you two without asking for anything right where you woke up in a random cave?" Numbuh 5 said while she levitated the giant frog with Numbuh 3 as they went back to the city with it

After getting their reward and officially getting Numbuhs 83 and 84 on the guild, Numbuh 3 and Numbuh 4 went to drink and brought everyone along, Lee and Sonia refused to drink alcohol and just drank milk, Numbuh 2 and Numbuh 5 drank just one cup of the same thing they had the last time and talked with the barkeep as they gathered more information about the world they were teleported.
