Chad was rapidly losing the fight, although he'd never admit it out loud. He was relying heavily on a circular neon green sheild protruding from the elbow of the robot's remaining arm to block Numbah 1's firey attacks, although that strategy wasn't completely foolproof as Numbah 1 could teleport around in a frenzy and then attack from an odd angle and take Chad by suprise or just attack the back of the robot. But Numbah 1 was having one issue, he didn't know where to hit the robot in a way that would shut it down so he was stuck hitting random spots until he got lucky, something he was currently hating since he knew his friends were probably in danger and the fight was just being dragged out.
Numbah 362 was also sick of watching this fight drag on, she knew that the future of the K.N.D was banking on the outcome of this fight and Numbah 362 was willing to do anything to make sure Numbah 1 was the victor. She started to kick at the top of the capsule, something she'd been doing for several minutes prior. The top of the capsule popped open and Numbah 362 started to climb out, being thrown back into the capsule as the robot's head turned suddenly and sharply. Still, Numbah 362 persevered and managed to clamber up to the top of the capsule before sliding down the side of it, immediately laying and latching onto the robot's remaining arm just in time for another sharp turn and the robot's arm lurching up and down, the poor girl holding back the urge to puke and holding on for dear life. Neither boy had any idea she was free so Numbah 362 inched down the robot's shoulder and down it's side with ease, she was halfway down the robot's side when the robot suddenly jolted to a stop. She thought it was just another lurch of battle until:
"Hey! How'd you escape?!" Chad yelled, the robot's head looking downwards. Numbah 362 ignored him and started to crawl down the robot faster. Chad scoffed, he knew that Numbah 362 couldn't be contained for long, good thing this robot was full of suprises. The palm of the robot's remaining hand opened up, letting out several small orb shaped drones coated in white shiny metal that flew towards and tried to attack Numbah 1, with Numbah 1 distracted Chad reached down to grab Numbah 362 but she scooted around to the back of the robot. "So that's how you wanna be, huh? Fine, let's go for a spin!" Chad announced before the robot's torso started to spin around in a clockwise way at high speeds, causing Numbah 362 to let out a yelp of terror. Numbah 1 tried to intervene but a few drones flew in front of him and shoved him back. Numbah 362 squeezed her eyes shut as hard as she could, fighting down the urge to vomit as she clung into the robot for dear life. "C'mon Rachel! Pull yourself together and find a way out of this mess!" She mentally ordered to herself, stuck in place on the robot's torso, she felt her heart rate quicken when she felt her grip start to falter. She held on even tighter but her grip kept slipping
Numbah 1 smashed the last drone into pieces with a flaming punch, he turned his head towards the robot with the hopes of continuing the fight with Chad. But what he saw made his blood freeze over dispite the hot flames swirling around him.
He looked over just in time to see Numbah 362 be thrown from the robot's sickeningly fast spinning torso. Her helmet fell from her head and let her long blonde hair loose, the world seemed to be going in slow motion as Numbah 362 turned her head to lock eye's with Numbah 1, her gaze locked into him in slient pleading terror. "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Rachel's scream was high pitched from fear as she flailed in mid air from behind to head first, she threw her arms over her face and head in a X formation as she braced herself to splat headfirst against the ground, squeezing her eyes shut as tears started to prick in them. Numbah 1 rushed forward with inhuman speed, his heart pounding against his ribs from the adrenaline rush and his the world around him seeming to blur into a mess of colours. He had tunnel vision, all he could see was Numbah 362, all he knew in that moment was that he had to save her.
Chad was suprised to see a blur of black and blue tear in front of Numbah 362 and then Numbah 362 and Numbah 1 was gone. Chad then barely managed to swerve the robot's head out of the wall of a massive blue fireball, his suprise turned to anger when he saw Numbah 1 levitating in front of him with Numbah 362 being carried by Numbah 1 bridal style, Numbah 362 panicked and hung onto Numbah 1 even tighter when she looked down and saw she was levitating many feet off the ground. Numbah 1 shifted Numbah 362 in his arms so that she was getting a piggyback ride from him so Numbah 1 could fight easier.
"Nigel, dodge Chad's attacks and aim for the middle of the torso when you get a clear shot. That's where the power core is." Numbah 362 instructed into Numbah 1's ear, "Got it." Numbah 1 said and nodded yes. "Ugh! No you won't!" Chad yelled, letting the sheild fizzle away and letting his anger get the better of him as the fingertips of the robot's remaining hand opened up and lazers shot out of them. Numbah 1 ducked and dodged around the lasers, Chad panicked when he saw glowing yellow orb eyes slowly getting closer and closer to him. "Steady...Aim..." Numbah 1 muttered, holding out his hand in the direction of the middle of the robot's chest, flames building up in the palm of his hand. "Fire!" Numbah 1 cheered as the beam of flames burst from his hand and pierced the robot right in the chest, triggered a mini explosion from the center of the robots chest. "No! No No NOOOO!!" Chad screeched in rage and pounded furiously at the keyboard as the robot teetered, swaying for a moment before crashing down on it's back and ceasing to move with a loud ear splitting slam followed by a low rumble.
"Whoo! Take that Chad!" Numbah 1 cheered, he and Numbah 362 high fiving. "Great job! Now fly me over to my office and put me down. I'll do the rest from there." Numbah 362 said. Numbah 1 glided over to the doors of the office, unfortunately the doors had a thick sheet of metal over it as a security measure. "How are we going to get in? I need to make a drill, all I'd need is some sort of base, a sharp piece of metal, some jumper cables-" Numbah 362's aloud thinking was interrupted by Numbah 1 making another giant fire hand and using that to grab ahold of the sheet of metal, it half melting as it was non-chalantly tossed aside. "Oh. That works too." Numbah 362 muttered as Numbah 1 levitated the two of them inside. "What are you planning ma'am?" Numbah 1 asked as he let her down, Numbah 362 winced at how formal Numbah 1 was making himself sound, knowing that Numbah 1 must not believe himself to be worthy of calling her by her name after Chad's reveal. Numbah 362 walked over to her computer, "I'm going to send out a message regarding Chad's reveal." Numbah 362 said. As soon as Numbah 362 booted up her computer 6 pop ups overwhelmed her screen, each pop up had a red background with a picture of each member of Sector V and Numbah 86 with the words: "FUGITIVE STATUS. CAPTURE IMMEDIATELY." in white text below the picture. "What? Fugitive status?! Geez, Chad really thought of everything." Numbah 362 muttered, unimpressed by Chad's gleeful villanous ways.
Numbah 362 tapped a series of buttons on her computer with Numbah 1 akwardly standing around her, after a few seconds there was a ding and the red pop ups were replaced with six green pop ups that looked the same as the other ones but with the white text now reading: "FUGITIVE STATUS REMOVED. SAFE FOR INTERACTION." "There you go, no more fugitive status. It's the least I could do considering all the good you've done for me." Numbah 362 said, turning around and being hugged by Numbah 1. "Thank you so much Rach--" Numbah 1 paused, he quickly broke the hug and pushed Numbah 362 away. "I mean ma'am. Thank you for everything Numbah 362." Numbah 1 said, still not feeling worthy of being causal with Numbah 362.
The rest of Sector V and Father were backed into a corner, the security robot's had backed them up against the door that should've led them out to the rest of the Moonbase. Numbah 2, 3 and 4 were huddled together with their backs pressed up against the firmly shut door with Numbah 5 and Father standing in front of them to protect them as the robot's prepared to lunge. But just as the robot's were about to lunge at them, something strange happened, the robot's stopped, and stood still for a moment before tilting their heads to the side in perfect sync like a confused dog. "FUGITIVE STATUS HAS BEEN REMOVED. NO FUGITIVES DETECTED." The PA system announced before the robot's crawled back in the holes where they came from and then the holes in the walls shut and the doors opened. "Are we safe?" Numbah 2 asked nervously. "Numbah 5 believes so, with the fugitive status gone and all." Numbah 5 replied. "Attention all K.N.D Operatives. This is your Supreme Leader Numbah 362 speaking." Numbah 362's voice suddenly came on the intercom. "Sector V and Numbah 86 are NOT fugitives or traitors, dispite what Chad said Numbah 1 has no malice or ill will towards the K.N.D dispite his villanous family members." Numbah 362 continued. "No one can choose or control their who their family is and we should respect that. Just because someone has an unfavorable family member or two is no means to treat someone based on that. Chad had no right to invade Numbah 1's privacy and neither do you. We need to remember to treat our fellow Operatives and people with respect, no matter how much you dislike their evil family." Numbah 362 finished her speech and the intercom system clicked off.
"Hey! Can you guys hear me?!" Numbah 86 suddenly yelled into Numbah 5's walkie-talkie. "Yep, Numbah 5 reads you loud and clear Numbah 86. Did you get escape from your office?" Numbah 5 asked. "Yeah, I'm gonna get things cleaned up on the ground, you guys make sure Numbah 362 is alright." "And make sure Numbah 1 is alright too, right?" Numbah 5 asked sarcastically. "Yeah, yeah, him too. Just go make sure everything's in working order, I'm gonna make sure nothing blew up or anything. Numbah 86 out." Numbah 86 said before the walkie-talkie shut off. "Nigel! You better be safe!" Father yelled down the hallway as he sprinted down the hallway to check on Numbah 1, the rest of Sector V running down the hallway to also check on Numbah 1.
