Chapter 3 – T.L.A.C.A

Everyone in the mess room turned to Ming-Ming, gleeful smirks on most, if not all faces. The Triplets' eyes widened, as they realised how little the others knew.

'What's this?' Jess asked, stepped slowly towards the bluenette. 'They don't know? Well!' She turned to the group. Katt grinned nastily.

'Last time we saw her, Ming-Ming Sukimara was the latest ass to date Michael Parker. I presume he dumped you as soon as you went to the bed, huh?' Katt said, looking back at Ming-Ming. She was beetroot red.

'Well judging by the colour of her face, I think we have our answer, right?' Ici finished with a smirk, identical to his sisters'. Jess and Katt nodded, and all three started to laugh.

'Poor Sukimara, doesn't even have enough sense to avoid Parker!' A brunette called across the room. Ming-Ming fled from the room as the rest of the room started laughing at her again.

Jess walked over to the brunette. 'Who are you?' Jess asked. The girl smiled up at her.

'Hilary Tatibana, sworn enemy of Ming-Ming Sukimara.' Her eyes widened. 'And you three must be The Morgan Triplets. Ming-Ming told me how you three are "so much better than I am." As said by her, anyway.' Hilary smirked.

Katt, Ici, Tala, Kai and Bryan walked over to join Jess and Hilary. Katt studied Hilary for a few seconds, and then smiled down at her.

'Hey, you hate this dump, right?' She asked. Hilary nodded uncertainly. Jess and Katt smiled at each other, and then back at Hilary.

'Then you want to help us with a couple of things?' Jess asked. Hilary narrowed her eyes in suspicion.

'What kind of things?' she asked. Jess and Katt pulled her to her feet, and started talking to her in hushed voices. Hilary's eyes widened.

She grinned. 'You got yourselves a deal!' She said. She shook hands with all three Morgans, and ran over to a group by the TV.

'Max! Emily! Miriam! Ray! Come here!' She called. Hilary came back to the triplets with four people behind her.

One was a raven-haired niko-jin, a blonde American kid, a ginger headed girl with glasses, and a bluenette in a brown dress. Hilary grinned.

'Meet Max (the blonde), Emily (ginger with glasses), Miriam (bluenette in brown), and Ray (black haired niko-jin).' Hilary announced proudly.

'They good enough for the job?' asked Katt, inspecting the four kids. Hilary nodded.

She pulled the triplets to the side. 'Max is easily hyperactive, and is banned from Pixie Sticks. You can bribe him with them. Emily is small and sneaky, and super smart. She has a laptop too. Miriam is really good at gymnastics and knows this place like the back of her hand. And Ray can sweet-talk almost anyone into doing something, and, he's Ming-Ming's room mate, or one of them.' Hilary listed.

'Sounds good to me.' Ici said with a shrug. Jess and Katt remained doubtful, though.

'What makes you so sure they won't tell?' Jess asked. Hilary smirked.

'Because we've been trying to shut this place down for the past two years, mostly based on their help. They didn't tell then, and if it means closing this place, then they won't tell now.' Hilary said confidently.

'Ok. Let em in.' Katt said.

Hilary grinned, and waved the four over. 'Ok, you're in. These are The Morgan Triplets.' Hilary said. All four pairs of eyes went wide at the mention of their name.

'We're gonna shut this place down.' Katt said. 'But we need your help.' She indicated to the three Russians to come over, and waited until they were there.

'Ok, so here's what we have to do.' Jess said, smirking. Ici pulled out his laptop, and started talking to Emily about complicated and technical things. She nodded a lot as he talked her through it all.

'First, we wait a couple of months.' Katt said. She received a few puzzled looks, but ignored them. 'To get in as little trouble as possible, we need to get up a good reputation first, but at the same time, showing people who's boss.'

'You don't show off; just make your point when questioned.' Jess said. Katt nodded.

'In order to do this properly, you need to make yourself known in two different ways. To the kids here, we are dangerous. To the adults and teachers, and so on, we never cause trouble.' Katt explained.

'That way we can be trusted, and can get away with more, without being caught or questioned.' Jess added.

'Then,' Katt said, 'we can make trouble, but frame others. We work underneath the surface, so we don't get caught. Then, we can make a few big hits, and the place comes crumbling.' She finished with a smirk.

'Basic rules and tips.' Jess continued briskly, 'you always have an alibi, and someone to cover it.'

Katt nodded. 'Yes, but to make the alibi more believable, you make sure that you know who will cover for you. Also, it helps if you don't hang round with each other as much. Don't be enemies, but don't be the best of friends.' She advised.

'If you get caught, and your alibi can't work for some reason, turn to a friend. Always be prepared to back someone up.' Jess said sternly.

'Yeah,' Ici added, 'And make sure you have dirt on everyone else. If they see or find something and threaten to tell, you need to make sure they back off. Blackmail works wonders, we find.' He said with a cheeky grin. Jess and Katt matched it with two identical grins.

'Whoa.' Ray said. 'You three really know your stuff!' He said. The triplets grinned.

'We've shut down five orphanages already, two schools and a restaurant.' Ici listed with an evil grin, matched only by his sisters'. 'I like to think we know what we're doing.' He said proudly.

'Main focus is the orphanage, but the school might end up going as well, if we're lucky.' Jess said casually.

'Ming-Ming was right,' Max said, 'you three are the real things!' The triplets smirked.

'We need some more help, but you guys will do for now.' Ici said, looking at his screen again.

'Yeah, we have to start small. With helpers, with pranks, with everything.' Katt said. Jess grinned.

'Yeah. Once we get more of a reputation, we can start a chain of helpers, like last time!' She said gleefully. Her siblings grinned.

'You guys wouldn't know anyone who'd wanna help, already, would ya?' asked Katt.

Miriam grinned. 'Well, my little brother Joseph would like to help, I'm sure!' She said. 'Oh! And Ozuma and Dunga!'

'Go get them, then.' Jess cried. Miriam ran over to the other side of the room, to three boys wearing similar outfits to hers.

'Joseph! Ozuma! Dunga.' She said the last boy's name flatly. They all looked up. Miriam started to say stuff to them, and soon they had followed her back to the group.

'This is Joseph,' Miriam said, pointing to small boy with green hair. 'This is Ozuma,' a boy with black hair, with a red streak running through it. He was about the same size as Joseph. 'And Dunga.' He was huge, tanned and had long blonde hair, with a short grey cap over the top.

'Hi.' Joseph greeted. 'So you're the infamous Morgan Triplets.' He grinned.

'Yup. You wanna help us take this place down?' asked Ici casually. All three boys nodded.

Katt rubbed her hands together. 'Ok Ea, time for standard procedure.' She said. Jess and Ici nodded.

'Standard procedure?' asked Hilary with a puzzled frown. The triplets nodded.

'Yeah.' Ici said. 'We split into three groups, each led by one of us.'

'Ya-huh.' Jess said. 'Ici and his group are planning and covering, Katt takes sneaking cos she's so damn good at it, and I take prankers.' She finished with a smirk.

'C'mon,' Ici said, 'we'll go back upstairs. We need to standardise our room too.' He said, walking off towards the stairs.

'We'll tell ya upstairs.' Katt called back to the others as she and Jess followed their brother.

Bryan looked round at the rest of the group. 'I think this is going to be very different from the last attempts to close this place.' He said, as he made to follow the triplets.

Tala, Kai and everyone else in the group followed him. When they got upstairs, they found Jess, Katt and Ici were already talking away, in the unknown language.

'What language is that?' Ray asked. The Russians shrugged.

'No idea. They didn't tell us.' Tala said. Suddenly, all three stopped talking, and turned to face the group.

'Ok, time to put you into groups.' Ici said, not looking up from his screen.

Jess and Katt nodded. 'Let's start with P.A.C.' Katt said.

'P.A.C?' asked Emily.

'Planning And Covering' Jess translated. 'Ici's group.' The group nodded.

'Ok.' Katt said. 'Our main opposition is Boris and Ming-Ming. We can beat Ming-Ming, but Boris could be another matter.' She said, deep in thought. Ici cleared his throat.

'Umm, standardising?' he hinted. Jess and Katt grinned, and rushed to their beds. They started to look underneath them, half burying themselves under them. They came out holding two rolls of carpet.

'Got it.' They both said together. Ici set his laptop on the bed covers, and went to help his sisters carry the two rolls over to the door.

'Step one;' Katt narrated. 'Sound-proof the room as much as possible, as secretly as possible.' She said. She ran back over to her bed, and came out with four plastic carrier bags of stuff. She ran back over.

Fifteen minutes later, the triplets stepped back, satisfied (note; I have NO idea how to sound-proof stuff.).

The door looked almost exactly the same, but was now sound-proof. The three then went on the sound-proof the two windows as well.

'Ok, back to the groups.' Jess said, walking over to sit on her bed.

'Emily, you go with P.A.C?' suggested Katt. Emily nodded and walked over to stand by Ici.

'Miriam, if you know the building so well, you'd better go with Katt.' Jess said, deep in thought. Miriam went over to Katt.

'Max, you go with Jess, we need a lot of energy with some of our pranks.' Ici said, pointing out something on the screen to Emily. Max joined Jess.

'Ok, the rest of you I think should decide themselves. Think what you're best at, not what you'd rather do.' Katt said.

Five minutes later, Katt's team consisted of Miriam, Tala, Ray and Joseph.

Jess' team was Max, Kai, Bryan and Dunga.

While Ici's team Emily, Hilary and Ozuma.

Katt grinned to her team. 'Time to make ourselves known.' She said.

-

Meanwhile, on the floor above them, Ming-Ming was making an army of her own.

King, Queen, Garland and Spencer were all sat in a line. Ming-Ming walked up and down it like an army general, inspecting them.

'The Morgans are back. We have to stop them.' She said.

'What's the big deal about these three, anyway?' asked Queen. She sounded bored, but Ming-Ming knew how to trick her and the others into helping her beat the Morgans.

'They intend to give more power to Boris.' Ming-Ming said. 'They will probably try to get rid of the opposition first – us!' She said. The group started to mutter.

'Whoa, I thought they were ok.' Ming-Ming heard Garland saying.

'We need to get more on our side before they have a chance to get their own recruits!' The pop diva said shrilly.

'Right, ok, sure, let's go, whatever you say…'Ming-Ming smirked at the responses she got from them, but smiled warmly at them instead.

'I bet Brooklyn would help,' Garland said.

'We'll get Raul and Julia.' King said. Queen nodded.

'I bet Lee, Mariah and Kenny would help you, Ming-Ming.' Queen said thoughtfully. Ming-Ming smirked.

'I'll see Mariah, Lee and Kenny. King, Queen get The F Dynasty Twins. Garland, get Brooklyn and Mosses. Spencer, see about the other Russians. Maybe you can scare Ian into helping us.' Ming-Ming added thoughtfully.

They all nodded and walked out of the room.

Fifteen minutes later, Ming-Ming looked to her new, faithful recruits.

King, Queen, Garland, Spencer, Brooklyn, Mosses, Lee, Mariah, Kenny, Raul, Julia, and also Miguel. Miguel had heard about the Morgans' plan, and had decided to help. Ming-Ming hadn't stopped him at all.

'Ok people!' Ming-Ming started confidently.

-

Meanwhile, The Morgan Triplets had a new army of their own. Jess and Katt had found Michael in the cafeteria at lunch, and had persuaded him to join them. He had accepted easily.

Michael had then told Ian about the rise against Ming-Ming, whereupon he had automatically joined them without hesitation.

Hilary, Max and Ray had told Tyson, and he, having a grudge against Ming-Ming as well, joined them too.

Now Jess was leading the following prankers: Max, Kai, Bryan, Dunga and Michael.

While Katt was happy to lead the sneakers: Miriam, Tala, Ray, Joseph and Ian.

This left Ici to handle the following members of P.A.C: Emily, Hilary, Ozuma and Tyson.

Tyson had wanted to be a pranker, but Hilary was afraid he was too big, fat and lazy for the job. Jess agreed, while Katt and Ici were merely relieved the boy wouldn't have as many chances to piss their sister off. Too many had found that to be fatal, or rather, incredibly close to it.

The triplets sent their troops back to their usual business, and started to prepare for war against Ming-Ming, and, more importantly, school on Tuesday. In two days. They started revising, something they prayed never to do again.

Not anytime soon, at least.

-

Downstairs, Ming-Ming had also dismissed her army. She was now flirting with Michael Parker: one of the enemies.

He pushed the bright bluenette away from him with a light chuckle.

'You know, Ming-Ming,' he said, looking her in the eye. 'I never would have thought you one to hang around with the enemy.' He laughed harder as she leapt away from him.

'You-You aren't with those, those…Morgans! A-Are you?' Ming-Ming asked, shocked. Emily walked over to her fellow American, grinning like him. She placed a hand on his shoulder.

'Yup,' she said, 'Michael here is part of The Morgans' team now.' She said. Queen stormed over, Julia right behind her.

'I thought you wanted to shut down this place!' The two girls spat.

'We do!' Emily replied sharply. 'And so do The Morgans!' She defended. Queen and Julia smirked. Ming-Ming quickly joined them.

'That's not what we hear they're up to.' Julia said, storming away with Queen. Raul and King smirked to their comrades as their sisters rejoined them by the fire.

Emily and Michael ran back to Hilary and the others, muttered something to them, and waited. The group (Hilary, Tyson, Miriam, Ozuma, Joseph, Dunga, Max and Ray) all shot up out of their seats. They, Emily and Michael started running towards the stairs.

On heir way up, they met the Frenchman and artist, Oliver. He stopped going down to stare at them. Then he began to follow them up as well.

They stopped at the fourth floor dormitory, barging in.

Jess, Katt and Ici looked up, frowning. 'Hi.' Katt said, smiling. She spotted Oliver. 'Who's this? New recruit?' she asked. Emily ran over to her.

'Never mind that now. We just saw Queen and Julia in the mess room – they think you're against shutting this place down!' She told them. The Morgans began to pale. Jess and Katt started pacing, each meeting only to cross paths.

'Ooh that Ming-Ming.' Katt cursed.

'She's told them opposite tales!' Jess cried furiously. Ici got off the bed as well. The two girls stopped to look at their little brother, as he stood between them.

'Then to Plan 8HCode: Alpha we go!' He said triumphantly. Jess and Katt stared at him, and then turned their looks to the other.

'Plan 8HCode: Alpha?' They echoed together, in mind and mouth. They both smirked identically evil smirks.

'Plan 8HCode: Alpha.' They decided firmly. Ici grinned up at his sisters.

'Ea, you're a genius.' Katt said, as Jess firmly hugged their brother.

'What's Plan 8HCode: Alpha?' asked Oliver from the doorway. Katt turned to him.

'We'll let you know once we know who you are, and whether you're with us or not.' Katt said.

The Frenchman grinned. 'Should I sit down? This sounds like a long story to me.' He said. The triplets grinned.

'Not really,' Ici said, from where he was trying to push his sister away still. Jess was still trying to hug him.

'We are The Morgan Triplets.' Katt said proudly. 'Our goal is to shut down this orphanage so you guys can get transferred to better ones. Preferably just one, though. Ming-Ming wants us to loose – she doesn't like change. We beat her before, but now she's made an earlier start.' Katt said. Ici nodded.

'Yeah, and to get them to join her she's said that she wants to shut the place down, and that we want to give Boris more power!' he added. Jess scowled and released her brother at last.

'Yeah, so now we're going to use Plan 8HCode: Alpha to combat her attack. Mainly telling her recruits that we're with Boris. In truth, we are against him.' Jess said firmly. All three nodded once together and in unison.

Katt grinned. 'So who are you and are you with us?' she asked. Oliver grinned with her.

'My name is Oliver Polanski, and oh boy, am I with you!' he said. The group of Morgan supporters grinned.

'I think this group outstands the rest.' Ici said to his sisters. 'Time to name them. If we are gonna be an army, we need a name.' He said. Jess and Katt nodded.

'Err,' Jess said. 'The Little Army of Crap Advice?' She suggested.

'I like it.' Tyson and Max said together. The others laughed.

'Well, it would certainly get more followers.' Oliver said, walking over to join the "army".

'You all ok with that? Should we ask the Russians?' asked Katt.

'Should you ask us Russians what?' asked Kai from the doorway. Tala, Bryan and Ian were with him. The triplets laughed.

'Right on cue.' Jess said.

'We're giving the army a name.' Katt told them. 'Also, Oliver's just joined us too.' She added. The Russians stepped into the room, closing the door after them. They nodded in greeting to Oliver, who nodded back again.

'Yeah,' Ici said. 'What do you think of Jess' idea?' eh asked.

'The Little Army of Crap Advice!' Jess cried triumphantly. The Russians exchanged glances, and shrugged.

'Whatever.' They said.

'So it's settled.' Katt said.

'Yes,' Jess agreed. 'You are now The Little Army of Crap Advice.'

'Or T.L.A.C.A.' Katt added.

Now you see where the title came from! Hope you like it so far – please review me about any doubts. I aim to answer all questions. Of course, that and to regain my sanity…now what happened to my ducky…

Anyway! While I look for my ducky, you all can make me very, very happy by pressing the little button down there, and leaving me a nice review! All flames and criticisms accepted. As few death-threats as possible, though, please.

I'll try to update soon. Thanks for reading, naioka1992 - xoxo
