Chapter 21 Meeting the Past, The Present, and The Future

Tang Residences 4:00 pm

"Wow, this tea tastes so great!" #3 responded.

"Why thank you-aru." China accepted the complement.

"If you need snacks, I'll cook for you." Britain said. At that moment…

"BRITAIN! PLEASE, NOT YOUR TORTURE!" Italy panicked upon hearing that.

"Um, not a good idea…" Trixie asserted. It went in too late. Britain has already started to bake the scones. He placed it in an oven and returned.

"Um Britain, can I ask you something?" Tootie asks "Can you describe the final wielder?"

"Yeah Britain." The kids said in unison.

"Like why among all the kids, it's that buck-toothed kid?" Isabella asserted.

"A buck-toothed kid?" the other two girls simultaneously said.

"You mean it's…"

"Statistically speaking, there are many buck-toothed children around the world…" Germany suddenly cuts in what Tootie is supposed to say.l

"Well, I will be happy if it's Timmy!" Tootie exclaimed.

"Well… yeah… I mean, who's Timmy?" Trixie followed.

"Stop pretending-aru…" China spoke.

"Yeah, STOP PRETENDING!" America stressed out "Or should I say…" At that moment, Russia begins to sing that creepy song they heard earlier with the matching instrumental.

"STOP FREAKING US OUT!" Everybody exclaimed.

"Sorry, I can't stop each of you becoming one with me!" Russia said with his matching creepy aura that grew much stronger than before.

"Looks like the scones are done…" Britain said as he smells the smoke from the oven.

"Are those scones?" #1 comments as he stares at the golden brown scones with some singes. Ferb and Phineas took their first bite.

"It's a little bit burned but still has the distinct British flavor…" Ferb commented.

"Hey Nigel your part British right? Why don't you try one?" Phineas insisted. #1 took one and said "Not bad." The countries except the smiling British gentleman are looking at the scene with disgust and their left eyes twitching.

"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU BRITISH!" America yelled.

"IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD!" Italy yelled.

"That's the number one reason why French cuisine should be served to these British infidels…" France said.

"Hey, what about Ash and his mother? They liked them." America asked. The kids soon followed and took a bite. Only Baljeet, Buford, #2 and #4 didn't like it.

"Mrs. Flynn's scones are better." Buford commented.

"But their good!" Isabella stressed out. The two future wielders are offered by Phineas to taste but they rejected that offer due to their experience before.

"Well, while eating, I'll continue my story…" Mrs. Tang said.

Sector C Treehouse January 7, 1976

Carla Baker's POV

While spying the new Chinese recruits from above the treehouse, for some unknown reason our 2x4 Technical Officer pushed me. Either he did that on purpose or not, he let me fall to the ground. IT'S A VERY LONG FALL! Much more problematic is that I don't have my J.E.T.A.B.O.O.T.S. with me! I totally hope and pray that some KND tech or agent would save me. I really thought I will die from that moment!

Chao Wong Tang's POV

I heard someone screaming from above me. I looked up and I saw someone falling. First, I thought Are they training agents to fear death so that thru this, they would fear and be trap inside the capitalist regime all their lives? Then, I said It's also a fellow human. I have to catch that kid for me to at least to take down this capitalist tool for oppression. I caught the person on both of my hands. I noticed the kid is a female American. What is unique is that for the first time, my heart is beating rapidly for some unknown reason. I thought Wow, she's beautiful… I shook my head off at that time. She opened her eyes and I stared at those dreamy eyes. She said "Thanks for saving me…" and I thought Wow, what's this…this feeling? Just then, I felt her lips touching my cheeks…

"Cut it out, Cut it out-aru!" China said. "YOU KISSED HIM MRS. TANG?"

"I thought it's a fellow KND Chinese agent ok!" Mrs. Tang responded.

"I would give you the reason why you should not do that…" Britain said "You would reveal yourself as an American."

"What?" America replied "That's just a way of giving thanks!"

"In your stupid movies-aru." China responded.

"Da! In Soviet Russia, movie watches you!" Russia proclaimed. America noticed Tootie and Trixie blushing. They seem to imagine the scene with someone else…

"HEY TIMMY TURNER!" America yelled. The two girls snapped out of their imagination.

"STOP THAT-ARU!" China reprimanded America.

"What! I just said…" America begins to look at China slyly "Do You know something that I don't…" At that moment, Sector CL2's watches are blaring, helping Isabella and #3 breaking of their similar dreamy state.

"Well, it's 5:00 pm…" Sector CL2's leader said "…we have to live now."

"Wait, I have to ask you…" #2 asks "... what prototype 2x4 tech did you used earlier?"

"It's the C.A.P.S.U.L.E., short for Concealing Everything Portable Saving Unnecessary Effort, an invention we want to present in this year's 2x4 Technology Convention this year!" Phineas said "But it's still in the protoype stage..."

"Just place it on anther 2x4 technology and it will come inside this yellow capsule." Ferb continued. They soon left the house and threw another yellow tablet-like device to reveal their own C.O.O.L.B.U.S. where they hop on to ride to Dannsville.

"Mom, I swear, they are agents of a certain group called KND and they have this weird stuff like a levitating bus!" the stepbrother's sister said to Mrs. Flynn.

"Well, just allow them to play..." Mrs. Flynn replied "They won't stay kids that long. Let them enjoy life before they grow up and realize how hard life will be..."

After Sector CL2 left, #1's communicator rang an #1 answered it.

"This is #86, I'm assigning you and your sector for a new mission." a stark, female voice said.

"What is it?" #1 replied.

"It's Operation Ensuring Safety Cover Over Responsibility of... wait, are the other 2 kids of interest are with you?"

"Affirmative."

"JUST GO TO SECTOR CL1!" # 86 yelled. The communication stopped at that moment.

"Sorry but we have to go..." #1 said.

"What! But we are learning about past missions of KND!" #2 replied.

"Besides, it's a love story..." #3 stresses out.

"We have nothing to do just to follow." #1 replied.

"But we've been doing this missions all that time!" #4 responded.

"This is just an ordinary GKND mission for me..." The Sector left the others and rode their parked

C.O.O.L.B.U.S.

"Well, looks like they've started Operation E.S.C.O.R.T." Britain said "Mr. and Mrs. Tang, if you please, we want to let your daughter join us for a mission to save the world..."
