THE CRYING GAME
a 3/5 fanfiction

CHAPTER ONE
--------------------------------------------------------
It was a midsummer afternoon in the treehouse.
Kuki was playing with her favourite rainbow monkey, lying in the bed and hugging it like a baby boy: on the last mission they made some days ago Wally saved her from a rude attack by the Common Cold, and the way he saved her from the green sneezy avenger made her very blushy and happy, a kind of happiness she only felt when the orange hood boy let her felt his touch.
Wally took her as he wanted to give a tender hugh, and then they rolled down to the ground, till they looked to each other in the eyes.
His green eyes to her black eyes, lost in a short but intense moment.
Kuky was daydreaming as she did everytime, but now some kind of sadness took her in the deep of her little sweety beating heart.
Abby came in to her room.
“’scuse me numbuh 3, have you seen my… eyeglasses?”
Kuki didn’t answer to her.
“Numbuh 3? Something wrong?”
“Oh, no no no”, said Kuki, “Just thinking”
“Thinking?”, said Abby with a smile.
“Yes, thinking”
“I’m wondering who’s the subject”
“Please numbuh 5, leave me alone!”
Abby felt a little worried and left Kuki’s room.

“Hey dude, where are my glasses?”, said Abby to Hoagie.
“I dunno”, said him working on a new 2x4 technology machine’s plan.
“Damn! I need those eyeglasses! I can’t read without!”
“You can use my goggles, if you want”, said Hoagie with a vicious smile.
Abby took his goggles and slapped them in his face.
“OUCH!”, said the poor boy, “It hurts, Abby! It hurts!”
“Next time you’ll trick numbuh 5, numbuh 5 will prick you!”
“I wasn’t tricking you”
“I thin you did it, dude”
Abby wasn’t angry for Hoagie’s provocation, she felt worried again for Kuki.
“Numbuh 5 should talk with numbuh 3, why not?”
“U-uhm, numbuh 5?”, said Nigel.
“Yes?”
“I think these are your eyeglasses”, said him picking up a pair of her own.
“Thanks numbuh 1! Now numbuh 5 can finally work on that darn math exercise”, said Abby wearing her eyeglasses.
She passed next to Kuki’s room, she thought that everything was quiet.
Instead, she heard the girl sighing.
Abby came in the room again.
“Hi there… maybe I know isn’t the right time, but numbuh 5 wants to know what’s going on with you”
“Leamme alone, please”, said Kuki with her face pressed on the pillow.
“Numbuh 5 doesn’t leave anyone alone, and you don’t make exception”
Abby sat next to Kuki: the sighing girl stood weeping on her pillow.
“Now I wanna see your pretty face and look into your eyes…”
Kuki left the pillow and saw Abby straight in her face, and then she started to laugh.
“Oh, now you’re feeling much better!”
“He he he, you’re wearing eyeglasses!”, said Kuki.
“Me wha… oh!”, said Abby leaving off that pair from her face.
Kuki felt much better after that funny situation and smiled to Abby.
“C’mon, green golf, tell me what’s wrong. Is someone’s hurting you?”
“Oh well, not hurting but making me feel sad”
“Don’t tell me is numbuh 2! I told him to stop with those puns…”
“Is not numbuh 2!”, said Kuki with a sad expression in her eyes.
“Oh”, Abby understood, “It’s Four… Am I wrong?”
“No, you’re not”
“Can’t find the courage to confess him what you feel for him?”
“Me I got the courage, him not! That makes me angrrry!”, said Kuki showing her teeth as a wild cat.
“So you're waiting his confession, uh? Why don't you confess first, and then see what happens?”
“I'm not sure of myself”, said Kuki sadly, “Sometimes I think it's just a temporary crush for Wally, somethimes I think it's real love... Oh numbuh 5, i'm so in doubt!”
“What can I say, girl? A crush sometimes evolves into a real true feeling, as affection or love. You have only to look into the deep of your soul and ask what kind of feelings you got for Wally. That' s all”
“I... I'll do that!”, said Kuki happily.
“Now I like you, girl. See ya, I have to study now”
“Ab... err, numbuh 5?”
“Yes?”
“Why do you have to wear eyeglasses?”
“Oh, well... it's a family inheritance. My sis got it too, he he”
“He he he”, Kuki laughed.
While she was going to study in her cool room of the treehouse, Abby felt like she did a great thing.
Not like ending good a daily operation, just like giving a precious hand to a precious thing.
And she knew that the precious thing, her precious thing, now was playing happily with her lovely plushy friend.
Abby knew that, and she felt very happy.

CHAPTER TWO
---------------------------------------------
“It's pizza time!”, said Hoagie having a slice of that cheesy beauty.
“Yay!”, said Kuky sitting at the kitchen table.
Wally wasn't there, nobody asked for him except Kuki.
“Where is numbuh 4? It's pizza time”
“Numbuh 4 told me he would have dinner alone”, said Nigel.
“Dinner alone?”, said Kuki.
“Yes. He seems a little tired after the last mission, don't you...”
Nigel looked at Kuki: she had a temporary feeling of a certain kind, then she smiled and ate her cheesy slice of pizza.
“Hey, there's only one big size slice of pizza now”, said Hoagie, “I'll take it for numbuh 4”
“Don't have that one while you're going to his room”, said Abby.
“Sure”, said Hoagie in a sarcastic way, “I won't have that one...”

“Can I come in?”, said Hoagie.
“Did you take that slice for me?”, said Wally stretching on the boxy ring.
Orange Hood, as his friends called him sometimes, ate that slice slowly.
“You seem so bored”, said Hoagie, “What's going on?”
“Nothing”, said Wally, “I'm just preparing myself for the next mission”
“Preparing for what?”
“You know... Kicking butts, giving punches, the same old fighting way”
“You're hiding me something, numbuh 4, there's something wrong with you”
“What?”
“After the Common Cold you seemed... I dunno...”
“Listen, I'm fine, don't have a cow for me”
“I just had some pizza minutes ago”, said Hoagie.
“No puns, please”, said Wally licking his fingers, “Anyway, that slice was good”
“Well, if you need a talk you know where I am”, said Hoagie leaving his room.

Some hours ago Wally asked for Hoagie.
“Hey...”
“Hey there!”, said Hoagie drawing a new 2x4 machine on a big sheet.
“I think I must have a talk with you”
“Tell me”
“Well, after the last mission... the battle against the Common Cold...”
“Yes...”
“I was embarassed because... Oh man, I just took numbuh 3 away from that green shot and...”
“You think it wasn't the right moment to have some hugs with her, uh?”
“WHAT?”
“You know you're so protective with her, why do you hide yourself from her?”
“What you're...”
“C'mon, street fighting man, everybody knows what goes on with you and numbuh 3”
“I was wrong if I thought I could have a talk with you!”, said Wally leaving Hoagie's room.
Wally was very angry, then he met Kuki on his way.
The two operatives looked at each other.
“Hi numbuh 4!”, said Kuki.
“Oh, hi there”, said him a little blushy.
“I'm gonna rent a movie with numbuh 5, would you like to come with us?”
“Errr... What kind of movie?”
“Oooh, there's the newest Rainbow Monkeys' Cutest Adveture on DvD, and...”
“Rainbow Monkeys, uh?”
Wally went away as he didn't meet Kuki some minutes ago.

Later, Kuki and Abby were looking for a movie.
Kuki tried to appear calm, but she was a little nervous. Abby noticed that.
“So... Any news from Orange Hood?”
“Nothing”
“Nothing... Well, I think he's gonna take time to tell it”
“Numbuh 5?”
“Yes?”
“I think he hates me”
“He hates you? Are you crazy? How can he hate you?”
“I dunno... I met him an hour ago and I said we were renting a movie together, and...”
“He wasn't in the mood for renting a movie, trust me”, said Abby with a smile.
“Oh, the movie! What we're gonna rent for tonight?”
“First, no Rainbow Monkeys' movie or something else”
“Okay”
“Let me think about... Hey, I think we found the right movie! Here it is!”
It was the Dvd of “The Blues Brothers”.
“Blues Brothers? I dunno... did you see that before?”
“I think it's the right movie, and look at these guys in black! They're supercool!”
“Yay! The tall one looks like Nigel, and the short one is Hoagie! He he he!”
“Okay! Just rent this movie and watch it!”


"We're so glad to see so many of you lovely people here tonight, and we would especially like to welcome all the representatives of Illinois' Law Enforcement Community who have chosen to join us here in the Palace Hotel Ballroom at this time. We do sincerely hope you'll all enjoy the show, and please remember people, that no matter who you are, and what you do to live, thrive and survive, there are still some things that make us all the same. You, me them, everybody, everybody..."

[Everybody needs somebody
Everybody needs somebody to love (someone to love)
Sweetheart to miss (sweetheart to miss)
Sugar to kiss (sugar to kiss)
I need you you you
I need you you you
I need you you you In the morning
I need you you you when my soul's on fire]

“Aaaaw! They're so cute when they play!”, said Kuki.
“Yay!”, said Wally, next to her.
She wished it was the right time, now.

[Sometimes I feel
I feel a little sad inside
When my baby mistreats me
I never never never have a place to hide
I need you]

Abby was next to Kuki, while Nigel and Hoagie sat down to the floor.
“Hey numbuh 1, don't you think that Elwood looks like you?”
“Except for the hat and the tie”, said Nigel.
“I wish I was Jake! He's a good driver too, just like me!”
“Shut up Jake”, said Abby, “We're listening to the music”

[Sometimes I feel
I feel a little sad inside
When my baby mistreats me
I never never never have a place to hide
I need you you you
I need you you you]

Then Kuki felt his hand touched by another hand.
She looked at Wally: he was very very very blushy.
She was blushy too, but then Wally took his hand away from her, even if he wished he could touch her hand for a little time again.

[I need you you you
I need you you you
I need you you you]

Abby noticed that, and smiled for her friend.

"You know people when you do find that somebody
Hold that woman, hold that man
Love him, hold him, squeeze her, please her, hold her
Squeeze and please that person, give 'em all your love
Signify your feelings with every gentle caress
Because it's so important to have that special somebody
to hold, kiss, miss, squeeze and please ..."

“Great choice numbuh 5!”, said Nigel, “I really like this movie!”
“You don't have to thank only me, numbuh 3 helped me too”
“Really?”, said Hoagie, “I thought you would had rent another Rainbow Monkeys' movie”
“Anyway, this movie rocks”, said a blushy Wally talking alone.
Then Kuki tried to put her hand on Wally's one, but he sat up and went to his room.
“Numbuh 4!”, said Kuki.
“Hey! We're out of junkies here”, said Hoagie, “Gonna take some”
Instead, Hoagie went to Wally's room and he found him alone in a corner of the boxy ring.

“Hey there...”
“Leave me alone, I'm feeling bad now”
“What's wrong with you now? We're having good times together, why do you do that to yourself?”
“They shouldn't had rent that movie!”, screamed Wally, “He made me feel stupid”
“Stupid?”
“Yes, I'm a stupid, are you happy now? Please numbuh 2 leave me alone, I don't want to see anyone around here...”
“Okay okay, I go... I go...”
Hoagie left the room and felt a little worried for that reaction.
Wally started to punch his pillow beacuse of the anger he had, and then he sighed slowly pressing his face on it.
Hidden in the dark, Kuki listened to his pain, and a little crystal tear fell down from her cheek.

CHAPTER THREE

“… you know, man, it’s embarassing to say and to prove but…”
Wally hadn’t find the right words to tell Hoagie how he felt last evening, when Kuki touched his hand and he ran away in his room.
“ You know me well, numbuh 4, I keep your deepest secrets since we joined together the Kids Next Door: the only one thing I can tell you is to find the right moment to tell her your feelings”
“Once again the same old story, uh?”, said Wally.
“Okay, I give up. Seriously. You’re gonna make me crazy and angry whit this stuff!”, said Hoagie leaving the room.
Now numbuh 4 was alone, in company of his thoughts.
How to tell her, how to find the right moment, how to tell it that way…
Only thoughts, man, only thoughts.
And some sadness and loneliness inside.
Where she is?
Where?

Outside was raining heavy and some flashes lighted up the treehouse.
“It’s gonna be a rainy day, friends”, said Nigel blowing on a hot cup of chocolate.
“I’m so scared”, said Kuki, “ but my Rainy Days Rainbow Monkey will make me feel protected!”
“You and your stupid plushies…”, said Wally coming in the kitchen.
“Say you’re sorry numbuh 4, my stupid plushies took it bad”
“I won’t be sorry with that stupid plushie anyway, I got better things to do instead”
“Oooh, have you listened everybody?”, said Kuki going angry, “He got better things to do!”
“Hey there”, said Abby, “stay calm please”
“You don’t tell me to stay calm, numbuh 5!”, said Kuki throwing her Rainbow Monkey to her.
“What the heck! Numbuh 3, stay calm now!”
“I won’t stay calm!”
“Please numbuh 3”, said Nigel, “Numbuh 5 just asked you to…”
“Now listen!”, said Kuki sighing, “I… I… I hate you all! I hate you all, and specially that stupid blonde australian guy with the orange hood!”
“Hey, jappy girl, I’m not a stupid Australian guy”, said Wally.
“You are!”, said Kuki whit tears falling on her cheeks.
“Why don’t you hug your stupid Rainbow Monkey and shut up, you childy?”
Kuki ran to Wally and gave him a bad slap in the face.
Wally closed his eyes, he was red tomato in face, he couldn’t open his eyes because of the shame and the anger that were growing inside him.
“You… You treated me so bad since I ruled the team… You always told me I was a childy girl, a funny thing, an obsessed Rainbow Monkey fanatic and now I will confess everybody what I really feel for you…”
Wally started crying silently, trying to leaving the kitchen with heavy feet.
The rest of the sector was shocked: Nigel and Hoagie were silent, Abby couldn’t believe her eyes the scene she was living now in person with the others.
“Okay now”, said Wally openinh his tearing red eyes, “Tell me, c’mon, tell me”
“I hate you, Wallabee Beetles, I hate you so”
“Well, are you fine now?”
“… No…”, said Kuki crying, “I feel the worst way I ever felt, that’s all because of you!”
“Okay now listen to me, girl!”, screamed Wally to her, “If you really hate me, prove it. Give us a proof of your hate to me, everybody will see. Now. NOW!”
“Okay, nice tragic pièce”, said Abby in a sarcastic but nervous way, “Now please. Kuki, say you’re sorry and Wally, please from the deep of my heart please, say you’re sorry too”
Wally and Kuki looked at each other: they were red in face, tearing from the eyes and lazy by the fight they had.
But the tension was too high in the kitchen, and everybody felt sick by the situation.
“Why do I have to be sorry with this crazy head in front of me?”, said Wally pointing his finger to Kuki.
“ Numbuh 4 stop that!”, said Nigel, “I think we’ve seen and heard too much for today”
“Shut up you, bald head leader!”
“You wha…”, said Nigel trying to grab him by the hood, luckily Hoagie stopped him.
“I knew you were so hateful”, said Kuki sighing, “How could I care for a beast like you?”
“A beast! That’s it!”, screamed Wally, “Wanna taste one of my punches right in your pretty face?”
“No! Wally! Don’t…”, said Hoagie.
But it was too late.

Kuki fell down to her knees, closing her eyes and trying to protect herself with the Rainbow Monkey as an airbag for her face.
But she didn’t feel the beat of the punch.
She opened her eyes and saw something she wouldn’t had never seen.
Abby felt bad, she was breathing low and ready to start crying.
Wally was on the floor, as he got something really bad.
Then he woke up with a black eye on his face.
“… Look… Just look… Just look what have I done!”, screamed Abby.
Hoagie came next to Wally, but the orange hood was mute as a tomb.
He looked straight to Abby, then to Kuki and to the guys.
“Oh my God”, said Nigel, “Oh my…”
“Oh Kuki I’m so sorry”, cried Abby hugging her too strong, “Please forgive me, forgive me, forgive me…”
Kuki was shocked by what happened just a few minutes ago.
“Forgive me! Forgive me! Forgive me!”, cried Abby still hugging Kuki.
“…N-Numbuh 4, are you okay?”, said Hoagie.
“Yes”, said Wally, “I’m fine. Really fine”.
And then he left the kitchen, walking in the corridor and taking the elevator.
“Numbuh 3, numbuh 5, I think we must talk”, said Nigel.
Abby stopped crying, Kuki couldn’t say anything, it was so messy and…
And…

Wally walked down to the street, going wet by the heavy rain falling down.
He never felt so crippled inside, he was so torn.
He never felt so bad, never.
He came back home and locked the door of his room.
He was alone again: his parents left a note where they said they went to the mall with Joey, looking for some nice dresses for him and his little brother.
Nice dresses. Nice dresses. Stupid nice dresses for him. Stupid black eye in the face, stupid green golf girl, stupid numbuh 5, stupid everybody, stupid world, stupid everything.
He screamed as he was going to lose his voice and made up a mess, throwing everything he had in front of him.
One hour after, he broke all his room.
Now he was crawling to the floor, sighing and crying.
He wished he never said those things to Kuki.
He wished it never happened that day.
He wished to die, forgotten by everybody.

O,o IT IS SOOOOO AWSOME!!!!!! *-* need to read more!!!!!!

[italianator]

Wow! I didn't know you really liked this fanfic! Well, we're going to end very soon.
This is the fourth chapter, we're next to the last....

CHAPTER FOUR

[Hey you, out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old
Can you feel me?]

Wally was lying on his bed, surrounded by the mess he made in his room.
He was listening to the second disc of Pink Floyd’s The Wall.
The first track was one of his favourite song ever.

[Hey you, standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles
Can you feel me?
Hey you, dont help them to bury the light…]

“Son? Are you okay?”, said mr Beetles outside the door.

[…don't give in without a fight]

“Can I come in, Wallace?”
“Don’t call me Wallace, dad! I hate it!”
Mr Beetles came into his son’s room and he face the mess.
“Oh my! Wally! What have you done?”
“Leamme alone dad, I’m not on the right tune to talk”
“Dear, please, what happened to…”
Mr Beetles saw the black eye on Wally’s face.
“Oh, not again! You had a fight with bullies at school?”
“Well… A bully made this on my face, so?”
“How many times I told you…”
But Wally didn’t listen to his dad, he was listening to the song.

[Hey you, out there on your own
Sitting naked by the phone
Would you touch me?
Hey you, with you ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out
Would you touch me?]

“Can we work it out together?”, said Mr Beetles.
“Leamme alone, dad. Go away”

[Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, I'm coming home]

Instead Mr Beetles sat next to him on the bed.
“Well, tell me however why did you do this mess in your room, there must be a reason for this. I know you’re pretty angry and ready to the fight, but I’ve never seen anything like this since you’ve been born. Really, Wally, I really care for you now, you can talk to me, don’t be so close with me”
Wally looked straight at his dad’s eyes, and a tear fell down from the cheek where the black eye was.
“Dad, I’m sick. Too much sick. I hate everything in this world, I wish I was dead right now!”
“Wally please, don’t say that! Death doesn’t resolve anything, we must face our problems and try to keep’em with strength and patience. Tell me what happened”
“I… I had a fight with Kuki”
“Kuki Sanban?”
“Yes, I mean… We told bad things each other and I was going to slap her in the face and…”
“Wally!”
“No please dad, please… Abigail did me the black eye. She wanted to protect Kuki from me”
Wally couldn’t stand his feeling and started to cry on his father’s chest, hugging him strong.
Mr Beetles caressed the blond hair of his son.
“Oh, Wally, I’m so sorry. Well, I don’t approve violence anyway, Abigail was wrong with you but you must admit that you were doing an evil thing to Kuki, and I know that you really care for her”
“W-w-what?”, said Wally ending to cry, “You know what?”
“He he he… C’mon son, I was a kid too and when a boy looks for a girl that is so special for him, he really cares for her and he’s ready to do everything for her, even in bad and good times”
Wally gone blushy while his father stood caressing his head.
“I know you didn’t want to do that. Anger makes you blind but opens your soul to the real inner feelings. This time isn’t anger, I think is lo…”
“Okay okay! I understood!”, said Wally jumping from the bed.
“Where are you going now?”, said Mr Beetles.
“Dad… I think I have to apologize with someone right now”, said Wally running at the door, “Oh, dad, just one last thing…”
“What?”
“… Thanks”
“Oh, Wally”, said Mr Beetles, “You know I’m not only a father, you got a friend on me”
Now Wally was running faster and faster to the treehouse.
Now the world seemed so different, he knew that everything could be better for him, and Kuki.
His heart was full of joy and happiness and love, it was beating hard inside him.
Wally never felt so happier.

“Numbuh 3, numbuh 5, for the sake of the sector V you must apologize to numbuh 4 when he’ll come back to the treehouse”, said Nigel looking at the girls in front of him.
“He’s the first who must to apologize!”, said Abby throwing her hat on the ground, “Didn’t you see? Numbuh 4 was gonna slap Kuki in her face!”
“And you did that!”, said Nigel, “You know, numbuh 5, you should be the first to stay calm in these situations”
“What?”, said Abby surprised.
“Yes. If you didn’t notice, me and numbuh 2 were trying to stop him till he would had slapped Kuki, but you gave him that nice punch in his eye and you know the rest, girl”
“I was defending Kuki from him!”
“This was your purpose, but it gone wrong, admit it!”
“No I won't!”
“Admit it numbuh 5!”
“No I won't!”
“Please, numbuh 5…”, said Kuki holding her arm.
“Wait numbuh 3”, said Abby leaving from Kuki, “There’s a few things I must know about myself by the others”
Now Abby was looking at Nigel with anger and hate, like she never did.
Nigel appeared calm but he was tensed too.
“So, mr Uno”, said sarcastic Abby, “ How would you lead this sector without me? I mean, if I didn’t join the KND, what would you without my experience having a teen ninja as sister, uh?”
“Numbuh 5 you’re going too far”, said Nigel.
“Yeah, maybe, but look at yourself everybody! Without numbuh 5 you would be a bunch of suckers!”
“That’s enough numbuh 5!”, said Hoagie, “Every numbuh of this sector needs the help and the friendship of the other numbuhs, and you’re not alone now”
“Me? You mean Kuki”
“I mean everybody!”, said Hoagie looking straight at her.
Abby was silent, then she took her hat from the ground and took Kuki with her.
“Where are you going now?”
“We’re leaving the sector V, numbuh 1. Find another numbuhs 3 and 5”
“You are crazy!”, screamed Nigel, “You won’t leave this treehouse even if I tell it to you!”
“Stop me now!”, said Abby pushing a button by the wall and disappearing with Kuki in the emergency tube.
The two operatives fell down to the tube and came out from it, sitting on the chairs of M.A.R.M.A.L.A.D.E. (Machinery Armour Ready Master Airflighting Leading A Destination Everywhere).
“Where are we going?”, said Kuki.
“Far away from this treehouse”, said Abby starting wild the engines.
The machine went away to the sky, when Wally came back to the treehouse.

“Hey you guys! I’m back! I know I know, I must apologize with you all and… Hey, what’s going on?”
“Numbuh 3 and 5 gone away, numbuh 4”, said Nigel worried and torn by the last words told by Abby.
“Where are they going? Tell me!”
“They took the M.A.R.M.A.L.A.D.E. and…”, said Hoagie, but he didn’t finish to talk as Wally took him running to the hangar.
“Hey!”, said Nigel, “I’m with you too!”
“Come, numbuh 1”, said Wally, “We must find them. Now!”
