After class ended we walked home with the boys.

"Where do you girls keep disappearing to?" Butch asked. His arm around my waist.

"We have stuff to do." Miyako said.

"Like what?" Boomer replied.

"We work after school and sometimes our boss calls us." Momoko said.

"Who hires 14 year olds?!" Brick exclaimed.

"It's my grandma's business. She hired me and them when she retired." Miyako said.

'Nice save.' I thought.

"Oh okay then." The boys said.

"Well we have to go. Bye." We said.

"But we still have a few more blocks to go." Butch said.

"Well we have somewhere to be. I'll see you tomorrow." I said and he kissed my cheek and I walked away with Momoko and Miyako.

"Hello Professor!" We said.

"Hello girls. Been busy with fighting?"

"Yeah. We barely got to eat." Momoko said.

"And the boys have been suspicious." Miyako replied.

"What have they been doing?" Ken asked.

"They just asked why we're always disappearing." I said.

"What did you say to them?!" Ken shouted.

"I told them that we work after school and sometimes our boss needs us." Momoko said.

"And then I told them that the business was my grandma's that she passed down to me when she retired." Miyako replied.

"Oh, okay. Did they buy it?" The professor asked.

"It seemed like it." I murmured. The professor and Ken nodded.

"Well that's good at least."

"Yeah. Guess who we saw on our mission!" Momoko exclaimed.

"Who?" The professor and Ken exchanged looks.

"We saw the heirs to the Haninozuka family and Morinozuka family! They helped us fight off the robots." Momoko was jumping up and down with excitement.

"That's awesome!" Ken exclaimed. "I wonder what they are doing here in New York."

"I don't know."

"Well I need to get home and do homework." Miyako said and left the laboratory.

"Yeah Kaoru we need to work on our Science project that we got today." Momoko said and dragged me out of the lab. We said goodbye to them and walked towards Momoko's house.

"I really hope the boys don't find out about us." Momoko said.

"Well we have to tell them eventually." I replied. "What will go wrong?"

"I don't know they can tell people or the villains might find out and hurt them." Momoko looked over at me tears already forming in her eyes.

"Hey, Momoko. Everything will be fine. The boys won't get hurt. We'll protect them." I patted her on the back.

We walked up to the front door and went inside.

"Hello Momoko." Her mom said from the kitchen.

"Hi Mom!" She replied. Her mom walked out of the kitchen and saw me.

"Oh hi Kaoru! I didn't know you were coming over."

"Hi Mrs. Akatsutsumi." I said.

"Mom we have a science project to work on so we'll be in my room if you need us." We took off our shoes and ran up the stairs.

"Okay. Dinner will be ready in an hour."

We entered her room and started working on the project.

"So I was thinking doing the effects of chemical Z." Momoko looked at me. "What do you think?"

"That sounds easy enough. We can 'interview' The Professor and Ken." I pointed to the rules of the project. It said that we needed to include an interview.

"I don't get it why do we need to have an interview anyway?" Momoko asked.

"Don't ask me. You're the smart one!" I replied.

"Momoko! Kaoru it's time for dinner." Kuriko came into Momoko's room. We had dinner and then I got a call.

"Hello?" I said.

"Hey, Kaoru." Brick said. His voice was very hoarse.

"Are you okay?"

"I was wondering if you could come over. I need to talk to you about something."

"Um yeah. I'm at Momoko's right now. I'll head over."

"Okay thank you. See you soon." I hung up the phone and told Momoko that I had to leave.

"What's going on? Is everything okay?" Momoko asked.

"I don't know Brick was really sad." I replied.

"Can I come with?"

"I don't know. I think he just wants to see me right now."

"Oh okay then." She looked heartbroken.

"I'll tell you everything." I said my goodbyes and headed over to their house.

I knocked on the door and Boomer answered it. His face was red and tears were streaming down his face. He gave me a bone crushing hug and led me to the living room.

"Guys what's going on?" I asked.

"It's Butch." Brick said.
