Chapter Two

As 362 walked down a corridor with Sector V by her side, she felt a little mean. Ever since they dumped the kids with Fanny, she had been feeling guilty ever since. After all, her brother was a pain in the neck, Mushi could get nasty when she wanted to, and Joey was still in diapers. She sighed, and Numbuh 1 looked over to her.

"Something wrong?" He asked quietly, so as not to give their whereabouts away.

"It's the whole baby sitting thing. It's quite mean if I do say so myself." Her shoulders sagged as she walked on. "Tormenting, that's the word."

"Yes, those poor kids getting tormented by throat queen." Numbuh 4 scoffed.

"I was talking for Numbuh 86." 362 glared at the short blonde. "Try having six little siblings dumped on your front door with little notice, and try to entertain them? Harder than it seems."

"Oh come on 362." Numbuh 3 giggled softly. "How hard could it really be? What could possibly go wrong?"

Glass shattering on her left, a chair knocked over on her right, a baby screaming in her arms…Fanny had looked after the kids for half an hour, and already they had trashed her house. She looked down to her left, and noticed Lee standing beside her and looking up as if expecting her to do something spectacular. Shaunie ran past them, Sonia in hot pursuit and attempting to catch him. Michael and Tommy were playing with various contraptions, and every go ended up trashing something. Mushi was currently nowhere in the room. Fanny gave Joey to Lee, and tried to stop everyone.

"Hey, don't do that!" RIIIPPPPP! A curtain had just been pulled from its rail.

"No, no, no! Don't run that way!" SMASH! A glass bowl fell and shattered into millions of pieces. Fanny's blood boiled so quick no one was ready for what she did next.

"AAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The scream echoed through the street, through the country, through the Earth, and finally reaching the galaxy. Numbuh 44 and 44 were calmly walking past a window in the Moon Base, and the first twin heard it.

"You hear something?" He asked his brother. The younger one threw up his hands and shook his head.

"Hm, I could've sworn I heard Numbuh 86 scream." He looked at the window, and a small crack appeared in it. They both jumped, and shrugged before casually moving on to report the damage.

Fanny breathed heavy as the kids stopped what they were doing, all looking in complete horror. All but Lee however, who wore a smirk on his face.

"Cool." He said.

"Tell me why you're trashing my house?" She demanded, looking around at the damage. "Well?"

Sonia looked down guiltily. "I'm sorry Numbuh 86, I was just trying to help. Here, I'll start cleaning up."

"Non no, it's fine." She replied calmly, placing a hand on the younger girl's shoulder. "I'll do it no problem." She entered a code in her watch, and the house began cleaning itself. Robotic hands coming out of the cupboards, and parts of the wall that opened up. They dusted the room, vacuumed, polished and swept up the mess. Once they had finished, the kids stared in awe, and little Joey was giggling.

"H-how come you can do that?" Shaunie asked, looking around at the spotless room. "Does dad know you installed it?"

"Heck no, he didn't even know I was a KND operative." She replied. "So, now that that's out of the way, why don't you all do something…" She was cut off by a window breaking. "Oh for cryin' out loud! I just fixed the blasted thing up."

Mushi came from wherever she was, screaming and flailing her arms around in panic. She grabbed Fanny's legs, and cowered behind her.

"What do you think you're doin'?" Fanny said, trying to keep her balance to prevent falling back on the tiny Asian crushing her knees together. "Let go of my legs, I can't stand up properly…"

She looked up to see a very familiar enemy coming into the house. A costume of purple, toothpaste tubes for guns, and hear gear for his teeth…Nightbrace stood before the kids, toothpaste at the ready for attack.

"Look, Mr. Boss isn't home right now, so I suggest you leave right now." Fanny said irritably, pointing to the door. She really wasn't in the mood for any more trouble today.

"Who said I was after Mr. Boss?" He replied. "I came for the kids, so give them to me or suffer the wrath of my porcelain veneers."

"Right, that does it." She pushed up her sleeves, and proceeded to the ex-dentist. The kids all cringed and stare in awe and horror mixed together as they watched their babysitter showing Nightbrace who was boss. They winced as she beat him up, and watched as she dragged his overly beaten body through the room. She muttered to herself, and with little effort threw him out the front door.

"AND STAY OUT!" She yelled, before slamming the door in a rage. She calmly looked at the kids, before straightening her hair and clothes before sitting back down. Lee sat beside her, and stared as if he'd just met his celebrity idol. Fanny took little Joey off him, and held him as if nothing had happened.

"Coo-hooll-lll!" He exclaimed, with a huge grin on his face.

"What's so cool?" She asked, with a look of tiredness.

"What's cool? You just single handily beat the snot out of Nightbrace!" Shaunie exclaimed, flinging his arms out.

"If only you could do it on real missions." Michael scoffed, making Mushi giggle.

"You're quite a cheek, aren't ye?" Fanny replied. "And for that, you're all gonna play a boring game. It's called 'sit on the floor and talk about stuff'. So get on the floor and play!"

"You are the worst babysitter I've ever known." Michael mumbled, sitting down and folding his arms across his chest tightly.

"You're the worst sister ever." Shaunie added, following suit. Sonia narrowed her eyes at them, but sat down anyway. Lee however, kept sitting beside Fanny and staring in awe at her.

"I'm glad you feel that way." Fanny stated calmly. "If you're willing to push it, I'll make you sing the Rainbow Monkey song for everyone and do the dance for it." She smirked as they both looked in shock and shut up immediately.

"Now, nothing should go wrong…" She then mentally cursed. Murphy's Law meant something would go wrong very soon.

"Hey look, a kitty!" Mushi stated, pointing at a white cat coming into the room. "AN look, there's another one coming from the kitchen."

Fanny rolled her eyes, and once again handed Joey to Lee. She got up, and stormed to the kitchen. The kids heard hissing and meowing, and a lot of words too inappropriate for the children's ears. Punches, kicks and biting could heard, and the next second Fanny came out, carrying the infamous Cat Lady out by her robe. She repeated the same ordeal for the plump woman, and made a rude gesture as she screamed before slamming the door behind her. Joey opened his eyes, and began to cry as he saw Lee's face. Lee panicked, and handed Joey to Sonia, who panicked and gave him to Tommy. Tommy stared wide-eyed, and put him in Michael's arms. Michael shook his head, and held him up. Fanny shook her head and retrieved the toddler, who quietened down and began playfully tugging on her hair.

"Wow, how'd you do that?" Tommy asked. "Even his older brother Numbuh 4 can't get him to calm down."

"Well how should I know what I did?" She replied. "And he should be fine, just as long as no one else barges in…"

362 had pondered Numbuh 3's words for a while, then decided babysitting wasn't really as difficult as she had thought. She contemplated just leaving her operative to do her thing, but gave in and decided to contact her. She pressed a button on her watch, and her operative came up on the screen, obviously annoyed with something.

"What is this? I can't a break from…"

"Numbuh 86, having any troubles?" She asked.

"Of course not sir. Everything's fine down here. So how's your mission going?"

Numbuh 362 shook her head. "Not good. This is supposed to be the meeting place for the villains, but there's no one actually here besides us."

"Villains? Which ones exactly?"

"Well, the usual ones like Cat Lady, Nightbrace, Count Spankulot, Mr. Boss…no offence, Shogun cheese ninjas, the Ninja Teens, and of course other minor ones. But our main target is Father and Cree Lincoln at this stage."

"Well that's strange, because Nightbrace and Cat Lady are on my front lawn. And I can tell you they aren't in a pretty state. They were talking about wanting the younger kids, but I didn't get a lot after I pounded them…"

"Aw crud!" 362 slapped her forehead. "Umm Numbuh 86, could you get those villains and keep them somewhere locked up for us?"

"Well of course I can, what do you…"

362 watched as the screen went black, but she could still hear them.

"Arrrgghhhh! The dark!…Sonia, calm down. Let go of my neck!…Dude, not cool…AAAARRRGGGHHHHHHH!"
"Aww man, what's going on down there?" Nothing. "Numbuh 86?"

"Look, contact me later…" THUMP! "Ow…Numbuh 86 out."

362 put her wrist down, and shook her head. She hoped it was nothing, but she had a strange feeling she had just put her best friend's life in danger.

Author's note: when there's someone screaming, its Sonia because shes scared of the dark. Fanny is telling her to let go of her neck, Lee says dude, not cool, then Sonia screams again…just thought id clear that up with you in case you got confused.

And im not going to say what Fanny said to the Cat Lady…its too rude for your precious ears. And for the record, the rude gesture was her flipping the bird in case you couldn't figure it out.
