We used to love one another, give to each other, lie under covers…so are you friend or foe? Friend or Foe by T.A.T.U.
Fanny was inside the Moon Base now. She took a deep breath. Nothing had changed…it was like three years ago, when she'd come up here daily to do paper work and get her orders for who was to be decommissioned that day. Except this time…this was the second time she'd come as the threat that the Moon Base needed protection against.
"Freeze!" Someone called near her. It was a small girl. Despite her big words, she was trembling. She had a mustard gun, and nothing else. Fanny walked right up to her and tapped her on the shoulder. The girl immediately transformed.
"Go get some of yer other friends," Fanny ordered the new Senior Citizombie, "Don't stop until everyone here is a Zombie, all right?" The Citizombie nodded, limping off to find others to turn. "Cree, Chad, where are yeh?" Fanny demanded into her wrist-watch communicator.
"I'm over in the Scientists' Sector.." Cree responded over the radio. "About twenty dorks Zombified. How about you?"
"Only one so far….Can't seem teh find the others.." Fanny added.
"We're right here!" Fanny looked up to see Patton, Nigel, Rachel, Wally, Kuki, and Abby all standing on the whiz bee deck. It was Nigel who had spoken. He continued now, "All right, traitor…bringing you in for decommissioning immediately!" There was a thick irony in his battle cry - Fanny had used similar several times in her period as Head of Decommissioning.
"Come and get me," Fanny hissed, going into a battle stance. The group jumped as one, and Fanny realized their plan - They were going to try to gang up on her. Her legs were siezed, then her arms pinned back. She rolled her eyes. "Yeh seem to have forgotten it's not only my hands that can zombify yeh…"
It had been so long since the fight against Grandfather that the operatives had all forgotten that he didn't always need to touch someone to zombify them. Fanny's eyes closed as she concentrated, a red beam of light seeming to flood from her into the nearest operatives - Kuki, Wally, Patton, and Abby - flashing before turning them into Senior Citizombies as well.
Nigel and Rachel let go of their friends, whom they had tried to anchor down by grabbing their arms. "Soo…any last words from either o' yeh?" Fanny crossed her arms as the Zombies all went and stood behind her, showing her their support.
"Yeah…what did you do to my best friend?" Rachel asked coldly.
Fanny's eyebrows went up, the words sending a dagger into her heart. Rachel had never called them friends before, much less best friends. But…There's nothing yeh could do about this now, even if you wanted to. It's too late. Fanny told herself. "She never existed. Wally, get her."
Wally obeyed, holding Rachel down. She struggled, and managed to kick him square in the mouth, but he just kept coming. A moment later, not only was Rachel turned, but she and Wally had turned Nigel as well.
"Mission complete?" She asked to her wrist watch.
"So long as you're clear over there," Chad answered, "I just got done where I am…then we can upload the virus into the computer, and blow this joint. The Kids Next Door will be the official down fall of kids everywhere…"
"All right…we're done then," Cree added over the radio. "I've finished my section. Tell me, did somebody get my bratty sister?"
"Yea…I got her," Fanny responded, cutting the line. She sighed, and sat down where she was. The Kids Next Door…what had once been like family to her…she had just completely brought down.
"Hello, Fanny," The voice was uncharacteristically serious, but still one she would have recognized anywhere. She turned around. Hoagie stood there, a Birthday Suit on. "Before you ask, I managed to recalibrate it when you attacked my friends…." He sighed, glancing at the zombie versions of his friends, who all looked like they were gearing up to attack them.
"Hold it," Fanny called to the Senior Citizombies. "I'll take this one." They were brainless now, willing to listen to any order coming from an adult. They obeyed. Fanny got up. "So…yer challenging me, then?"
"I don't see anyone else around who betrayed me."
"I could say the same of you," She hissed. Hoagie looked puzzled. If Fanny noticed, she didn't care. "I may not be able to zombify yeh while yeh wear that suit, but I can still fight yeh.."
Hoagie nodded grimly. "Yeah…" He bent his knees, trying to lock himself into place. "Well….give it your best shot."
