Mwahahahaha! I am back! Nah, I'm not dead, I just had a serious case of writer's block. This is basically just a filler chapter where the only real important thing happens right at the end. Enjoy!

Chapter 5

One of Those Days

Laina and Brydon strolled into their work centre, both with large milkshakes in their hands. Their eyes widened when they saw a broken window right in the centre of their office. They exchanged a surprised glanced before turning back to the damaged window.

"Okay! Who has done that report Laina asked for?" Cyber called merrily as she skipped into the room. "If you haven't you'll- Why is that window still broken?!"

"Ah, my dear, dear Cyber. What's with all the worry?" a voice called. Two out of the three in the trio were surprised to see a certain blue imaginary friend walk towards them, sipping a soda as if nothing had happened.

"What's with all the worry? What's with all the worry!? You are in time out until you fix that window mister! Be generous that I'm not beating you to a pulp right now because you were supposed to work on it instantly! That was two hours ago!" Cyber yelled.

"Don't worry Cyber I have the Charmbreak twins already on it!" Bloo clicked his fingers. "Hurry up!"

From the small room where all the cleaning supplies were stored came two children, possibly about in their early teen years. They didn't look very excited about their new job. The girl had a dust pan and brush while the boy had a new layer of glass for the window and some building equipment. Cyber sent them a thankful smile. They smiled back and began to work on and around the broken window.

Cyber sighed in relief. She grabbed the soda out of the short blob's hands and chugged the rest of it down. "That was refreshing. See you around!" She walked away.

Bloo murmured something under his breath and left the building to go play. Laina and Brydon stared at where the two once stood. They stared at the ground, then at each other.

"What the hell just happened?" Brydon wondered.

"I have no idea."

Kuki Sanban had no idea what had gotten into her friend, Wallabee Beetles. He had been avoiding her for a whole week, ever since his talk with Brydon. She watched him as he practically murdered the poor little punching bag. He had a lot of anger built inside and she could tell. She had known him for too long. She hid behind a tree and slowly began to creep closer to the angered boy. When she was close enough, she decided to grab his attention.

"Hey, Numbuh 4?"

The boy jumped and swivelled around, recognising the voice. He had to keep himself upright as he replied. "Y-yeah?"

"Can I talk to you in private for a minute?" Numbuh 3 requested.

Numbuh 4 nodded and they sat in the shade of a nearby tree. Numbuh 3 stared at him directly, gaining the courage to speak. Once she did, she stared at the ground, suddenly finding it interesting. She attempted to form the right words in her mind. In the end she decided on the simplest option.

"Why are you avoiding me?" she blurted.

The Aussie was caught off guard. "I-I'm not," he stuttered. He stood up quickly, making Numbuh 3 more alert. "Now, if that's all, I'm going to go back to punching the stuffing out of that punching bag over there."

The Asian girl watched him go as she sighed in defeat. She lay down and stared at the leaves above her. She thought some of the aggravation of her fellow operative was starting to rub off on her because she was now very frustrated. She closed her eyes.

'Why are boys such doo-doo heads?'

"What's your problem!?"

"I haven't got a problem; you're the one with the problem!"

Brydon, annoyed with the noise coming from outside, went over to the window to investigate. After that day he was exhausted and he just wanted everyone to be quiet. He opened the window and wasn't surprised with one of the people quarrelling below, though he would have thought she would have been sick of fighting for that day. He sighed and turned to his work partner.

"Hey Laina, that crazy ex-friend of yours is making a racket outside."

The blue haired girl looked up and strode over to the window to see for herself. She first spotted Katya and rolled her eyes. The second person made her face light up with delight. Brydon followed her every action and raised an eyebrow. He took a quick look at the other person, but he didn't recognise her. Her hair was black and she was fairly tall and slender. She was wearing all black, no hint of any other colour. He could have sworn that he saw a small match box in her pocket as well.

"Narae!" Laina exclaimed in delight.

"Who?"

Laina slapped Brydon in the head. "Hey! What was that for?"

"For being an idiot," she huffed. "Narae is Katya's cousin. She doesn't get along with Katya at all. Those two get on worse than Katya and I do."

"Seriously? Worse than you two."

"Yep." Laina's eyes now had a cheeky looking sparkle in her eye. She took out her phone and smirked.

"Laina…" Brydon stared worriedly, "What are you going to do?"

Laina's smirk stayed in place as she answered. "Oh… You'll see…"

She dialled a number on the phone and waited for the person to pick up. When she finally received an answer, she grinned. Brydon thought the grin was a bit… Scary. He was terrified to think of what the girl was thinking of doing.

"Yeah, hey. I was wondering, could you keep your little cousin out there entertained for a minute or so?" Brydon could hear a muffled voice on the other line. "Oh nothing. Just make sure you hop out of the way when you see some flying eggs come down, okay? Good. See you later!" She hung up.

"Uh, Laina?" Brydon asked hesitantly. He'd seen what she was capable of and he knew it wasn't good.

Laina headed over to the fridge on the other side of the room. She came back with a whole carton of eggs in her hand. Brydon knew eggs stunk pretty badly, but these were the worst he had ever smelt. They smelt like vomit and a fart mixed together and the smell upgraded ten levels. He made a disgusted sound and held his nose. Laina didn't seemed fazed my the smell as she opened the carton. She ran to the window and stared down at the people below. Brydon followed her.

"Aim, aim… Fire!" She let one of the eggs drop onto Katya. Brydon saw the egg land on Katya. Catching the drift, he picked up an egg and threw it at the snobby girl. The girl all dressed in black, Narae, was laughing her head off as she gave Laina a thumbs up. Laina returned the favour and resumed dropping eggs onto Katya.

Katya screamed so loudly that Brydon had to cover his ears. She stomped away angrily to clean herself somewhere. Laina grabbed his arm and led him into the elevator. They travelled to the ground floor and to the courtyard outside the building. Narae was already waiting near the doorway.

"Narae!" Laina squealed, hugging the girl.

Narae laughed. "Hey, Laina," she greeted.

Brydon just stood there, feeling uncomfortable. "Um…"

Laina turned to her awkward looking friend as she let go of Narae. She sighed and pointed to Brydon. "This is Brydon, one of Dexter's friends. He's my work partner now."

"Against your will of course," Narae assumed.

"Oh yeah, totally," Laina confirmed. "Anyway, what are you doing here? I thought you were living with the rest of your family in the Wilds!"

"I was, but things got a little strained at home. Katya rang up her mother, who was staying with us. She told her about what happened with you and badmouthed you basically. I told my aunt to stay where she was and that I would go see Katya. Bad idea," Narae explained.

Laina took all the information in, and turned to Narae. "Okay, you're coming to stay with me for a few nights." The two girls walked off in the direction of Laina's living quarters.

Brydon stayed where he was, too stunned to move. Everything had happened so fast that he had no idea what the outcome was. In the end, he had only one thought.

'…What a weird day…'

There you go! I already know one of the plotlines for the next chapter! Yay! Oh, just to let you know, that girl that was based on Katya, you know what happened to her? Well, let's just say I followed in Laina's example.

And to those people who gave me their OCs and haven't seen their character in the story yet, the character WILL BE IN THERE! I already know where all of them will be if I don't have anywhere to put them beforehand. Thanks!
