Valentine Countdown- 2 days left...

The next morning, Numbuh 4 returned to the treehouse. His teammates were seated around the kitchen table, eating a breakfast of a special edition Rainbow Munchies cereal- made with extra, extra, extra love (and sugar). He joined them, quietly. Kuki gave him a brief smile before going back to her breakfast.

"So, Numbuh 4, how did your mission go?" Numbuh 1 asked.

"Eh, it was okay," he replied nonchalantly.

"Good. After breakfast, we have a mission, but it's pretty basic. If you want to opt out and get some sleep…" Numbuh 1 trailed off.

"Yeah, that would be great actually."

A few minutes later, they finished breakfast, and Numbuh 1 lead them out of the room, leaving Numbuh 4 alone. He sat in his chair, waiting for the telltale rumble of engines taking off. Once he was sure the rest of the team had left, he stood up, taking the vial out of his waistband. He held it up daylight streaming out of the kitchen window. His eyes widened as he watched the pink-gold liquid turn pure silver when met with light. He gave a light laugh, surprised.

"Those cruddy scientists sure know their stuff," he muttered to himself. He tucked the vial back into his pocket. "Well, better get to work."

The scientists had instructed him to add five single drops of the solution into any liquid except for water, and then have Numbuh 3 drink it. Obviously, Wally had to be clever.

The first thing he did was dig out 15 strawberries and five bananas from out of the fridge. He took out the blender, and separately blended one banana and three strawberries together. The result was a delicious strawberry milkshake. One of the scientists had suggested it, and Numbuh 4 had been quick to comply- after all, his original plan had been to sneak into Numbuh 3's room while she was sleeping and force the drops down her throat.

Ten minutes later, he had five, frothy, light-pink milkshakes in The Special Glasses, each marked with a 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. These glasses were for special occasions. He pushed a silly straw into each glass. He took out the vial, and in the glass marked 3, he eased five drops into the glass. He watched in fascination as the liquid swirled, like dropping ink into a glass of clear water, taking the form of a heart, before dissipating.

"Whew!" Numbuh 3 exclaimed tiredly. "That was a fun mission!"

"Oh boy, Numbuh 4," Numbuh 2 said, walking into the kitchen, where Numbuh 4 was sitting, attempting to do his homework. "You shoulda seen the look on Lizzie's face!"

"What?"

"I broke up with Lizzie," Numbuh 1 sighed.

"Two days before Valentine's Day? Well, why didn't you say so? Aw man!" Numbuh 4 exclaimed, striding over to where their leader stood, and clapped him on the back. "Don't worry mate," he added when he saw the rather dejected look on his friend's face. "You're definitely better off without her."

"And besides," cut in Numbuh 5, folding her arms across her chest. "Now you can have some fun with that scarf girl you keep talking about from England." Numbuh 1 turned cherry red at this.

"So," Numbuh 4 interrupted. "I've got a surprise for you guys."

"A surprise?" Numbuh 3 squealed. "Oh, oh, don't tell me. Is it… is it… a pony? It's a pony!"

"Uh…" Numbuh 4 scratched his chin. "No." He pulled open the door to the fridge, and took out a tray with the drinks balanced on it. Numbuh 3 gasped.

"Wow, Numbuh 4!" Numbuh 2 exclaimed. "What's the occasion?"

"Valentine's Day," he responded casually. After all, it was true. He caught a suspicious look from Numbuh 5.

"Uh-huh," she muttered. "'Cause you're totally that kind of guy."

"Well, maybe I am," Numbuh 4 retorted, sticking his tongue out at her.

"Mmhmm. Sure thing, pretty boy."

"I told you already! I'm not pretty. I'm handsome." Numbuh 1 snorted. Numbuh 4 noticed Numbuh 3 blushing. Hmph, he thought. Strange.

"Anyways, come on already. Try them!"

"Well, okay." Numbuh 1 picked up his glass. He held it out in a toast. "Kids Next Door Rulez!" They echoed him, and took a sip. Numbuh 4 fixed his attention on Numbuh 3. There were satisfied murmurs from everyone.

"Dang, baby, this is good," Numbuh 5 said.

"Yeah," Numbuh 2 agreed, taking another gulp. Numbuh 1 nodded. His glass was already empty.

"Wow, Numbuh 4, this is really go-" Numbuh 3 began. She froze in the middle of her sentence, and the rest of the team looked at her, startled. "Oh…" She clutched her head. Numbuh 4's eyes widened. Any moment now… he thought to himself. "Milkshake headache…" Numbuh 4 stomach dropped in disappointment. "Oh. I don't feel so good." She pushed herself out of her seat. "I'm going to my room."

"Right," Numbuh 4 muttered.

When Numbuh 3 got into her room, she jumped onto her bed. She stared up at the ceiling. Her stomach twisted in disgust. She clenched her fists into tight balls. Her eyes danced with fury.

"Right," she mocked in an Australian accent, mimicking the defeated tone in Numbuh 4's voice. "I hate him," she hissed.

Oh no. Plot twist! What will happen?! Stay tuned everybody.

As always, reviews, follows, and favs are extremely appreciated!
