A/N: Woo! An author's note! Anyway, Kaiju Big Battel does not belong to me, but to bunch of guys including Randy Borden. If you haven't seen one of these, go check the website at kaiju dot com. Fun! Anywho, I know the way Maddie is spelled is a little off, but anything that looks like Maddie, Maddy, Madison, Maddi, or any other variation is the characters name. BTW, Maddie DID NOT get amnesia. Alright, this chapter's kinda long, and it tokk FOREVER, but it is worth it. The beginning's a bit dramatic, so have fun! BTW, the only reason this is so long is because I wanted to make up for the fact that I don't right author's notes or disclaimers.

It was June 30th, exactly 3 months after Maddie had found out about Kaiju. She and her brother were still a little mad at each other. Maddie was 16, she felt she was mature enough to make her own decisions. She was out of school, and was holding back tears as she packed her backpack with a few clothes, a journal, 3 packs of pencils and a sharpener, and a camera. She grabbed her laptop bag and wrote a quick departure note to her brother, Louden. The note said this:

Dearest Louden,

I am running away. I'm sorry, but I need to have freedom. I'm going to fight against Dr. Cube if it kills me. Don't come looking for me, as I plan to be in a place where you can never go. I expect to see you soon.

Madison A. Noxious

P.S. Give my Regards to Indy and Carmen.

She shed a single tear on the page and left the penthouse.

She arrived at the warehouse. It was huge, and Dr. Cube's face seem to look down at Maddie from every angle. She gulped and pushed past a crowd of minions. That's right, Minions. Dr. Cube's base was easy to find, but difficult to get in. By the time she got in, she was very aggravated. She marched into his office and her eyes locked on his.

"Whatever you want you got it. I like your style. And since I don't know you, you probably want a job."

Maddie exhaled, and her anger left her. "You have pretty good deduction skills, Blockhead. I'll give you that."

"Blockhead? Who-You must be a Noxious. Go away. You're wasting your time." He spun back to his desk and continued to fill out the forms he was working on.

"You don't understand. I...I'm trying to get back at my brother. I want to fight. And I can benefit you. I know things about Kaiju. Things Louden doesn't even know."

"Like what?" Dr. Cube had turned and was now interested.

"I dunno. Maybe hiring me will refresh my memory." Maddie raised her eyebrows.

"Fine, your hired! Now..." He prodded her to continue.

"The commissioner has a girlfriend." She smiled.

(A/N D: LILA!! Melodramatic much?) A/N: It was important!! Just work on the story, Nat!

"And...?" Dr. Cube goaded.

"Only the first one's free!" She sung.

"I gave you a job!"

"That's why I gave you the offer! If you want more info, no experiments on me!" She was almost laughing now because she had just outsmarted a "genius".

"Fine! You evil, little bitch! I can tell you will fit in here perfectly," he shook her hand, "Now... The information...?"

At the Noxious home, Louden was hysteric, to put it lightly. It had been a week since Maddie ran away. The two little voices in his head were saying the same thing this time; it was no longer AAAHH and Calm down! but AAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOLY SNAP!!!!

It was bad news for the Kaiju fans. Not once did 'I-have-to-get-to-the-Battel-that's-in-an-hour' cross his mind. He did, however, think of blowing up the whole town in hopes of discovering his little sibling. He actually did consider it until his head cleared long enough for him to realize that would probably prove fatal for her.

"What should I do, Beav?!" he yelled.

"Me?" Beav pointed to himself. "You're asking me? Wow!"

Louden groaned, putting his head in his hands. "Answer the question please," he muttered quietly.

"I dunno..."

Louden glared at his geeky partner. Just then, Jingi barreled through the door way leading to the dining room. It had been their base of operations for finding Maddie.

"Guys! Guys! It's a riddle! It's a riddle!"

"What are you talking about, Jingi?

"The letter, it's a riddle. 'A place where you can never go'. Since she's talking to you, what would she mean?"

"Cuba?" Beav tried. He just got a sarcastic glance from Louden and Jingi rolled his eyes.

"Well, she has always been a drama kid, maybe 'girl's dressing room' fits?" Louden guess got a groan and a flick to his head.

"Woah Woah Woah! Look at this! Who's Indy and Carmen?" Jingi said smoothing the paper on the table.

Louden's mind was working at the speed of light. Carmen and Indy? Who are they? Indy-Indiana! Indiana Jones! One of Maddie's favorites! Didn't she have that movie marathon last week? She asked me to rent...SPY KIDS 2! She was always a strange 16-year-old...

"Quotes! Maddie loves quotes! Indy refers to Indiana Jones, and Carmen refers to Carmen Cortez from Spy Kids!" he said eagerly. He then sighed and said, "And I never thought that sentence would ever come out of my mouth."

"What?"

"The clues must refer to quotes to her favorite quotes. Since the characters fit, the timing is good, and no one who didn't know her as well as I do would figure it out-"

"As well as you do? You don't even know where she is!" Beav cried. He then gave Louden a skeptical look and added, "You thought she meant 'girls dressing room'."

"Would you two stop fighting! Midori, you two sound like Boulder and Cube! Now, Louden's hunch is the only lead we have. So, where would we find out where her favorite quotes are?"

"That's where I'm stuck. I never paid much attention to her when she was babbling like that." Everyone groaned.

"Maybe we could help." Louden turned and was never more happy to see Maddie's 4 geeky friends staring back at them.

Meanwhile, Maddie was actually almost enjoying self at Cube's HQ. He had given her a bunk in the Super Minion barracks, so she was with many strong and (half) witted people(?). She was meditating on her bunk when the door opened and three of the few non-stupid minions stepped in.

"Good Morning, Niko, Joesph, Paul. Cube wants to see me?" she said, not even bothering to open her eyes. They were the only minions (and Cube knew it) who could interrupt her meditation without getting beat up. They were the only ones who knew she wasn't brainwashed or drank anti-freeze.

Cube had taught her many fighting moves in her week here at Camp All-Hail-Cube-And-Hate-All-Other-Kaiju-In-The-Whole-World. She didn't mind the dictatorship here. Cube wasn't actually that bad. In fact, she was on his good side so much, Paul would tease her that she had fallen in love with her commander. She always retreated to her bunk after dinner and did almost everything Cube told her to do. Although, he did once ask her to tell him where Louden's apartment was, and she distracted him by spying the graffiti she had been wanting to tell him about. She ratted out the minions who thought themselves rebelists who made the Cube insignia a joke. She was avoiding the answers and information. For now.

"No, but Master has organized an extra session of Fighting Practice, and has asked you to come," Niko said, using the word 'Master' instead of 'Cube' because, unlike Maddie, they were afraid. He offered his hand to help her down from her top bunk, but instead of taking it, she flipped off the bunk, landing somewhere near the door. She proudly walked to the training grounds, with her three friends following.

Meanwhile, Louden had cleared a space for Maddie's friends. They each brought something to look at. Nat had brought her laptop and was furiously searching through Maddie's emails, info, and all kinds of website's Maddie went on. Katie and Maria were working on a list of what they knew, and where Maddie could be. Louden stared at a girl he had never seen before. She was blonde, blue eyes, tall, skinny, and wore would-be designer clothes. She was searching through a stack of papers.

"Who are you?" Louden asked.

Nat took it upon herself to introduce everyone, "Well, I'm Nat, Katie and Maria, This is Sam. She's the bookworm, and has the best memory. Sam, now don't freak out, but this is Maddie's brother, Louden-"

"And in case you didn't get the hint, this is Jingi and Beav." Louden added. "Now, what the heck are you doing here?"

"Maddie's our friend, and we want her back. Now, what have you learned?"

Jingi spoke up next, "Well, Louden believe's Maddie has given us clues in the form of quotes. Any idea what are her favorite quotes from Spy Kids and Indiana Jones?"

"I know where to find them." Natalie furiously began typing away at the keyboard.
