This story is already getting weird, and I have not even really begun yet.
Wally touched his....er, her entire body, trying not to convince himself that he was Kuki. He checked every one of his features, and sure enough, was surprised that nothing was actually his. Shock filled his eyes as he went wide eyed. Numbuh 5, instead of feeling sorry for him, thought it was the most hilarious thing to ever happen to him. Before Wally could get a word out, Hoagie appeared. "Um guys....something is very wrong with Wally." "Ah am Wally you twit!" Numbuh 2 simply rose up an eyebrow. "What ever is wrong with Wally must have infected Kuki too." "For the last time, AH AM NOT KUKI!!!!" Just then, a scream was heard. It sounded a whole lot like Wally's screams. Well, it would be, if it was still his body. Yes, their vocal cords didn't come with them, they still retained the other's voice, which made Numbuhs 1, 2 and 5 very confused, since Kuki has never actually said the word crud before. Wally, or Kuki, just entered her room, breathing heavily. "What is going on? Why do I look like Wally? Oh wait, that's better." Kuki began to smile, as she stared at her body, with Wally in it of course. "Um, Numbuh 3," Abby started "that's not a mirror." Wally growled at Kuki, which made her finally realise that was not a reflection, her smile instantly being traded into one of horror. "No! This can't be happening. I can't be Wally!" Wally took offense to this. "Hey! What's wrong with being me? Your no walk in the park either. Look at me! I'm a tiny, weak little girl!" "Hey, who you calling weak?" "Stop it, both of you!" Numbuh 1 was tired of all the fussing. It's bad enough that they had a crisis on their hands, or at least another one, the first being Father, but their bickering only gave him a headache. "Numbuh 2, please tell me you have a solution." "Well," Numbuh 2 said, his voice sounding a bit scared "all I know is that when Father's machine was damaged, instead of cloning Kuki, it swapped her brain waves with Numbuh 4, who was the first person who made contact with her. The traveling currents of electricity took over the natural electric currents in the human brain, causing-" "Numbuh 5 is getting a headache. English, please!" "Well, the machine kind of switched their bodies when they made contact." Numbuh 1 sighed, a bit relieved now that they knew what was wrong. "Do you have a way to fix it?" Regrettably, Numbuh 2 shook his head. "We just don't have the technology to devolop a gene splicer so quickly, excluding that the brain switch was a total fluke to begin with. They could be stuck like this for weeks." Nigel could read the horror on his swapped operatives' faces. But alas, he could do nothing for them. "Well, they'll just have to cope." Wally grabbed a hold of Nigel's shirt. "You can't be serious Numbuh 1. Ah can't live mah life loike this!" Nigel swatted Wally's hand away, giving him a stern look. "I am your sector leader, not a miracle worker. You two will just have to learn to ignore your differences and try to live with them. You should be grateful you both survived the shock." Numbuh 1 began to leave the room, knowing he could say nothing more to help. Before he stepped out, he turned his head. "Maybe now you two will learn to appreciate each other. This goes double for you Numbuh 4." And with that, he vanished into the hall, being joined by Hoagie and Abby.
Numbuh 4 just gave Kuki a glare, even though in her body, it wasn't very intimidating. Kuki finally broke their awkward silence. "Well Wally....um, I guess I'm sorry for making it seem it was bad being you." Wally, despite his current rage, managed to forgive her. Though it was kinda hard to feel an attraction to her, since he was staring at his own body. Talk about being in love with yourself. He simply smiled at her, knowing that doing anything more would feel way too awkward. "Ah'm sorry Ah snapped at you loike that. It's just, how am Ah gonna be able to get through the day knowing Ah'm a girl?" Kuki, trying not to take it like an insult, tried to comfort him. "Well, look at the bright side. You won't feel jealous when I'm around other boys anymore." Wally fealt his stomach tighten up. How did she know he got jealous when that happened? Was her sweet and loving attitude hiding the fact she'd been waiting for him to attempt something? She somehow knew he got jealous, though whether it was a "stealing my friend" jealousy, or a "stealing my girlfriend" jealousy was beyond him. "Roight, Ah guess." That's all Wally could really say. He couldn't say anything more, because the girl he loved was, well...not really a girl anymore. He felt too strange to try anything because of this, so he simply brushed his feelings aside and gave her a "this will work out" smile, to which she responded with her own. Eventually, the two joined the others in the main living room.
Hoagie was watching a wrestling match, to which he called over his chum Wally to join him. He was rather shocked to see Numbuh 3 sit with him, only to realise he had forgotten they swapped bodies. Still, it bothered him a bit. Top that with Kuki, in Wally's body, asking to watch the Rainbow Monkey show instead simply blew his mind. "Um....I'm gonna go get popcorn." Hoagie walked away, a bit disturbed by his teammates. He wasn't the only one. Abby was a bit freaked as well, especially since Wally, or I should say Kuki, started talking about Rainbow Monkeys, as well as other girly things to her. This would be followed by Wally, in Kuki's body, saying how much he hated that cruddy stuff. Nigel didn't pay too much attention however. He was more focused on changing them back. But how? The only way fast enough was to find Father, but he had ran off. He had to try and see if he could remember anything to clue him on what Father was going to do next.
-Flashback-
"NO!" Nigel shouted, staring at his two downed partners. "Oh, poor Nigel. Upset your friends had a bit of a shocking end?" Hoagie groaned. "That was the worst joke I've ever heard." Abby facepalmed, seeing that normally Hoagie would find this hilarious. Then again, he didn't think of it. Father gave a slight chuckle. "I should thank your friends. By getting rid of that stupid prototype, I can now focus on completing the real gene splicer. And let me tell you, this one is much bigger than this hunk of junk." "Wait, you have another!?" Nigel said, a bit shocked. Father shook his head in disappointment. "You know Nigel, that really hurts. As much as you know me, you don't think I'm capable of having a machine bigger than that? That's really insulting. Fortunately for you, I'm in a good mood, and I won't attempt to destroy you for that. For now, I'll see you next time!" And with those words, Father formed into a little shadow ball, and floated out the window.
Nigel sighed. All he knew was that Father had another, bigger machine. But he still dosn't know where Father could be. And will the same fluke work a second time? Nigel would rather not just toss his friends into a machine that would fry them, for a chance of swapping their bodies back. If anything, a bigger machine would kill them, and he was not about to take that chance.
So there you have it. Kuki and Wally are swapped, and we now know that Father has an even bigger machine. Will Wally and Kuki ever be able to switch back? Will Nigel ever find where Father has stationed his gene splicer? Will I ever figure out where Who is since Who knows everything in the universe? Find out, on the next, Kids Next Door!
And yes, I have a slight romance going on with Kuki and Wally. Gah! I have been plagued by mushy love 3 4 fanfics! Ah, what the heck, I think they're good together anyway.
