Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I was busy with this stupid Geometry workbook my mom's making me do. Anyways, I wanted to update this story before school starts in a couple of week because when school starts I won't have anytime to update my stories. So here's my update.
Chapter 4
"So there were KND operatives watching the fight? And they might want to recruit the kid? Don't worry, I just thought of a plan," said a man in a dark silhouette sitting on a brown leather chair, a phone to his ear. "Get me the boy's school records. All right, good bye my delightful children."
The man put the phone down, stood up, and stretched. He had some scheming to do.
Line Break
"Father, why do you need the boy's school records?" the Delightful Children From Down The Lane asked.
Father said, "If he is who I think he is, then I'm not surprised with your story. But I need to check his school records to confirm."
The Delightful Children handed Father the school records. Father skimmed through it with an occasional "uh huh." When he finished reading it, he handed it back to the Delightful Children with an evil smile on his face.
"Just as I expected," he said evilly. He turned back to his children who were looking confused.
"What do you mean, Father?" The children asked. Father glanced at them.
"Oh, nothing my dears," he replied. "Why don't you go do some homework or prepare for volunteering at the kindergarten class?"
The Delightful Children looked at each other. "All right, Father." They walked away.
Father went over to his desk and took out some paper and a pen. He started writing.
Dear Mrs. Malcolm,
This is Nigel's father. He has an appointment at 2:00 and will need to be excused from class.
Sincerely,
Montgomery Uno
He put down the pen and strolled over to his big leather chair and sat in it.
"My nephew will join us one way or another- on his own free will."
The next day
"You were awesome! The bullies never even saw it coming!" Hoagie said in excitement. Hoagie hadn't shut up about the fight after the whole fight was over. Nigel decided to put a stop to it.
"Hoagie," he started. "Stop talking about it." Hoagie looked at Nigel astonished.
"What? You're not going to at least brag a little bit? If I took down four bullies I would be all over the school saying it!"
Nigel stared at the floor and didn't say anything. "I just…you know, don't want to talk about it."
Truthfully, Nigel felt kind of bad about taking down those bullies. Sure those bullies were about to beat up a kid but he wished that he could have solved that problem some other way other than violence.
Still wrapped up in his thoughts, he got caught off guard when he bumped into the same little blond kid that he had saved.
"Oh, erm, hello," Nigel stammered as he looked at the kid. Hoagie looked at Nigel.
"Hey Nigel, isn't that the kid that you saved? He's so short!" Hoagie exclaimed. Nigel glared at Hoagie.
"Now's not the time Hoagie." Turning back to the kid, he asked, "So what brings you, um, here?"
The blond hair kid down at the floor. "Um, well I haven't really thanked you for saving me from those cruddy 4th grade bullies. If it wasn't for ya, I would probably be nursing broken limbs and, well, ya know."
Nigel looked at the short kid. He couldn't have been much younger than Nigel. "So, what's your name?" Nigel asked.
"Wallabee Beatles, but my friends call me Wally. Well, they would if I had friends," Wally said sadly. Hoagie ran over to Wally.
"Well, you've got two now! So what grade are you in?" Hoagie asked cheerfully.
"Um, Kindergarten," Wally replied. Hoagie looked shocked.
"Wow, but you're so short! You can't-"
Nigel gave Hoagie a look. "Oh, um, I mean, cool!" Nigel turned to Wally.
"So what class are you in?" he asked.
"Mrs. Malcolm's class."
Nigel looked surprised. "Hey, Hoagie and I are in that class! Why haven't I noticed you before now?" Wally looked a bit embarrassed.
"Well, ya see, I've kinda been hiding in the cruddy corner of the room. I'm a bit shy, if ya haven't noticed. That's why it took me a while to come an' thank ya," Wally said.
"Well now you can come and sit with Nigel and me at our table! I can tell we're going to be great friends," Hoagie said cheerfully.
The three new friends walked into the classroom together and Nigel's doubt about fighting the bullies temporarily went away.
The Delightful Children stood in front of the door to the kindergarten classroom with Father.
"So we start the plan now, Father?" The Delightful Children from Down the Lane asked Father.
"Yes, my children. Take the note and give it to the teacher Mrs. Malcolm." Father walked over to the children.
"It's time for Nigel Uno to join our side."
"C'mon! Our table's over there!" Hoagie pointed gleefully as he, Nigel, and Wally entered the classroom.
"Everybody, please take your seats," Mrs. Malcolm said. Everybody scrambled to their seats. Nigel sat between Wally and Hoagie. Nigel watched as the Delightful Children handed the teacher a note and whispered something in her ear.
"What do you think they're up to?" Nigel asked Wally. Wally just shrugged. Nigel continued to watch as the teacher nodded her head and went to her desk. The Delightful Children went to straighten bookshelves.
What were they up to?
Mrs. Malcolm went to the front of the room and instructed, "Everybody, work on your own for a while. Nigel, can you come here for a second?"
Nigel gave a confused look to his two friends who both shrugged. He then proceeded to walk with caution toward the teacher. Mrs. Malcolm said to him, "Nigel, pack up your things and head to the office."
Nigel gave a confused look. "Why?"
Mrs. Malcolm said, "There's someone to pick you up to bring you to your appointment."
Now Nigel was more confused than ever. "What appointment?"
The teacher gave him a confused look. "Well the appointment that-"
"Enough chit-chat," said the Delightful Children who had been listening. "Nigel will need to leave now. Come along, we'll see you off."
Nigel gave his friends one last confused look before the Delightful Children led him away.
Line Break
The Delightful Children led a confused Nigel to the office. When they got there, there was a man wearing a dark silhouette suit waiting there.
"Ah, I've been waiting for you Nigel," the man said. Nigel was scared.
"Who are you and how do you know my name?" he said fearfully. The man laughed.
"You needn't be afraid. I'm a personal friend of your father's here to take you to my house," the man said. "Don't worry, your father already knows." Nigel sighed with relief. It was only a friend of his father so he could be trusted.
"What should I call you?" he asked curiously. The man smiled.
"Call me Father." Nigel looked puzzled.
The man explained, "Well, you see, everybody calls me Father and I am the father to five adorable children." Just then the Delightful Children walked up to them.
"Should we go now, Father?" they asked sweetly. The man named Father nodded.
"Let's not waste any time." And with that, Father, Nigel, and the Delightful Children went into the black limo and the limo drove off to the Delightful Mansion.
Once they got there, Father and the Delightful Children led Nigel to a long table where they all sat.
"So, are you hungry?" Father asked Nigel. Nigel nodded.
Father laid out a plate of cookies. Nigel eagerly grabbed one. As Nigel ate, Father looked at him curiously.
"So, Nigel. I have to tell you something." Nigel swallowed and looked up. Father continued. "I know childhood is good and all but there are some children that are too into it, if you know what I mean." Nigel nodded. "They call themselves the Kids Next Door and they constantly disturb adults, especially me," Father explained sadly. Nigel looked shocked.
"Why would they disturb you?" he asked in a confused tone.
"Oh, you know, they think that everything an adult does is evil so they think that everything I do is evil so they constantly disturb me with their mustard guns and such." Father said sadly. Nigel couldn't help but feel bad for the adult.
"I'm sorry. I wish there was some way I could help," he told Father. Father then perked up.
"Wait, there might be some way you could help," he said excitedly.
"How?" Nigel asked curiously. Father looked at him.
"How would you like to help me put down those meddling Kids Next Door once and for all?" he asked.
"I'm in," Nigel said in a heartbeat. That was the biggest mistake that he'd ever make in his life.
So how was that? I know Wally is OOC but that's because I want to write about how he gains courage and becomes the Wally we all know and love. Also, the next chapter is going to take place two years later, when they're seven years old. It will be in Abby's POV. So I don't know when the next update is going to come but I promise it will be this year. Also, I'm going to go see Turbo 3D tomorrow. So those of you who've already seen it, comment about if it's good or not. Oh, also comment about your thoughts, question, and concerns about this chapter. Well, until next time!
