Chapter 3

I don't own the KND… OK?

So it appears me and Sector V has been getting along quite fine. Number 4 and I did have a tense moment here and there, but above all I think everything is going to be quite okay.

As I'm helping Number 2 come up with new ideas, it makes me wonder. What are the Delightful Children doing? What machines are they going to come up with now?

Not to be bragging or anything, but the things they make are like baby toys to me. Easy to defeat and not too scary. Just thinking of that makes me chuckle! So about the part of the mysterious organization now. It shouldn't be us because we're mysterious but we don't aid people like them. Perhaps it's a small rebellion of kids… Wait that's it! I believe that it! I once read somewhere about unusually large elementary school with groups of "savage" kids.

"Uh, Number 2 did you hear anything else on that thing that Number 362 said?"

"Not really. Wait were you paying attention to the message at all?"

At that moment, another idea suddenly sprung in my head. Perhaps I can contact some old friends that reside in the town of Johanneningsburg…

"Hello! Earth to Zach! I was asking you a question!"

"Oh sorry, I was just thinking of something. Yes, I was paying attention."

"Oh. So do you still think of Number 3 as—"

"Whatever you are going to say I have to answer NO!"

"Heh, just wondering! Come on, I think we should get a snack or something…"

Number 2 left without me since I didn't bother getting up. Why would he ask me how I feel about Number 3? I guess people still are curious. Wait a minute now, I bet you want to know how I feel huh? Okay, Number 3 is still cute but I do know she's off limits.

As, Pilot Richten said, I can't mess this up. There shouldn't be anything happening because of romance. I mean who ever—

"Kids Next Door, BATTLESTATIONS!"

The Delightfuls must be attacking now! Time for battle!

"Battle Laser, activate!"

The scene was familiar to me. Dodging shots here and there, made it even harder to shoot the machine.

"Number 5 watch out!"

One of the big metal machine's arms tossed her aside leaving me open.

I've got to find a place to hide! Wait, I shouldn't just think of myself! It's always the team I have to consider too!

Quickly I held Number 5 in my arms and carried her to another room.

"Number 5, are you sure you'll be alright?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine. Number 5 five says thank you for rescuing me."

"You're welcome. I'm going to back out there and help the others."

Immediately I dashed out of the room and headed back to the action.

ZAP! Agh! I was just hit by a laser! Oh no, I can't be losing consciousness not now…

Especially not now…. ---

Author's note: So where will he end up now? Maybe the teenagers got him or something… What about those Delightful Children? R&R plz!
