60/362 Thread III

[delitelia]

Yeah, she would smile and say something only to be shushed by Numbuh 5 even when Patton wouldn't seem to hear the comment and instead he'd be going on with his train personification.

[numbuh1362]

i bet they would tense him like abby and hoagie tense wally ^^;;

[Prettywitchiusaka]

Yeah, although somehow I don't think he'd make up an excuse as stupid as Wally's in B.E.A.C.H.. Although I will agree that his friends would probably start to tease him about it.

And before I sign off, I am now posting the fourth part of my one shot. I should have the final part ready for posting this weekend, so expect that soon as well.

Rachel and I both looked up to see one of the biggest traitors of our day and age, our former Supreme Leader, Numbuh 274, Chad Dickson. Upon seeing his smirking face, I shot at him an evil glare, giving proof of my growing hatred towards him.

N362: Chad! So you're the one who shot down the delivery ship.

Chad: Smart as ever, huh McKenzie? But I'm afraid you won't be getting the Code Module before I do.

N362: Oh, and why is that?

Chad: Because I have direct orders frmo Father to obtain the Code Module, by any means necessary.

N362: Then in that case I-

N60: I challenge you. One because it's my job to arrest unnecessary scum. Also, I will not allow a traitor like you to bring any harm to my Supreme Leader.

I never caught Rachel's expression to my answer, but I did manage to catch Chad's. His expression was written as an evil smirk, proving his confidence in the task at hand, something we had in common.

Chad: You seem pretty confident about this situation. Alright then, I'll take your challenge. Just expect to lose Drilovsky.

N60: I don't intend to.

As I said that, Chad began to run towards me and I began to run towards him, beginning our brawl of fists and feet. I used a combination of my advanced martial arts skills as well as my free style training to counter my opponent, but unfortuately, I had forgotten just how strong a fighter Chad truly was. How I knew this was from the way he was dodging and blocking all of my attacks.

Deciding to become more aggressive, I threw my most violent punch at him, only to have him stop my attack with his own hand. Chad then proceeded to punch me hard in the side of my face, then sending a kick to my gut, which sent me flying across the glacier.

Landing on my knees, I held my gut as I winced in pain, trying hard not to reveal the pain I fwas feeling. Once I heard a loud thud, I looked up t see Rachel now lying on the ground, she was sort of wincing in pain as well, and fear seemed somewhat apparent in her eyes. Chad stood before her, shooting his mouth off like the moron he is, and sending her way a pair of claw like weapons that came from his Battle Ready Armor. Impulsively, I threw myself in front of my beloved as I took the blow, which had clawed the right side of my chest.

I heard Rachel scream my name as I collapsed to the cold ground, wincing in pain as I felt blood beginning to pour out of the wound. A second later, I felt myself being pulled up by the collar. I opened my eyes to now see Chad's face, an evil smirk clearly detailed on it, something I glared at.

Chad: Aww. Did you get hurt trying to protect your Supreme Leader? How pathetic.

N60: Really? Well then I guess a loud mouthed, snooty, cowardly traitor is just as pathetic.

I began to smirk as Chad began to fume up at my insult. He was never one to enjoy being mocked, especially by someone younger, or close to his age.

Chad: Y...You shut up!

He kicked me in the gut once again and I began to fly across the glacier. As I came close to the edge, I back flipped and grabbed the edge of the glacier. But before I could attempt to pull myself up, I looked up to see Chad now stepping hardly on my fingers in an attempt to make me fall off the glacier completely. I tried hard not to wince, to show Chad that I wasn't a coward like him, but with how hard he was stepping on my fingers, how easy could that be?

Chad:Looks like it's the end of the line for you Drilovsky.

But before anything else could happen, I saw Rachel come up from behind Chad as she sent him a powerful front kick into his back. This caused Chad to fall head first into the cold Arctic Water. As he was resurfacing, Rachel quickly grabbed my hands and helped me up onto the glacier. But before I could thank her, we brought ourselves to our feet and Rachel began to smirk at the now resurfaced, pissed off Chad.

Chad: H-How dare you push me into the water!

N362: Aww, what's the matter Chad, not enjoying your soak?

Chad: Shut up you stupid brat!

N362: Shut up huh? Well then I guess I shouldn't tell you to go home before you develop pneumonia, should I?

It seems he had decided to take her advice, for a moment later he activated his jet shoes and began to fly off, anger and annoyance still visible on his face as he began to leave the Arctic. After he was gone, Rachel then turned to face me, concern now clearly shining in those beautiful chocolate brown eyes of hers.

Cause you're my true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
Cause I'm here for you
Please don't walk away,
Please tell me you'll stay, stay

[delitelia]

Cool! It was really interesting to read this part, all full of action and all!

[Prettywitchiusaka]

Thanks Deli, I appreciate it. Expect the final part to be up either by tomorrow, or Friday of this week.

And before I sign off, I have a new topic discussion to post.

A favorite treat that most kids just love and adore is good old Ice Cream. Of course, everyone is bound to have different flavors that they like, kids especially. That said, the question is this.

What Do You Think Are Rachel and Patton's Favorite Ice Cream Flavors?

For Patton, I don't think he would be overly fancy with ice cream. To me he probably would perfer one flavored ice cream. That said, I think his favorite flavor would be Mint.

For Rachel, I'd say she'd be more classy with her ice cream, enjoying one of the three main flavors of ice cream. That said, I think her favorite ice cream flavors would be vanilla and chocolate.

What do you guys think?

[numbuh1362]

OMG! i love it but it sounds like a cliffhanger...

and icecream huh...;D

patton: i think chocolate because maybe the icecream would remind him of rachel! XD

rachel: probley vanilla or strawberry...

[Prettywitchiusaka]

It is intended to be a cliffhangar at the time. I should have the next part up by tomorrow. Hopefully you guys can wait that long.

[delitelia]

I'd go with Vanilla for Rachel and some kind of caramel cream ice cream for Patton.

[Prettywitchiusaka]

Wow. Everyone agrees that Rachel would like vanilla.I personally perfer French Vanilla.

That would be cute though if that was the reason Patton liked chocolate ice cream, because it remind him of his beloved.

I can imagine it now. Patton is looking at the ice cream dreamily, day dreaming about Rachel when Jeffery/Numbuh 600 shows up.

N600: Hey Patton. Why are you looking at that ice cream cone like that? Are you thinking about Numbuh 362 again?

Patton realizes this, and quickly snaps out of his trance.

N60: No. I was just admiring the color of the...ice cream.

[delitelia]

The other boy would just stare incredously at him and throw him a smirk at the answer; knowing what was the real deal.

[numbuh1362]

oh ok prettywitch.. can't wait for the next chapter! ^_^

and i like french vanilla better to.

[Prettywitchiusaka]

Yay! That means were French Vanilla buddies!

Anyway, I'm glad you guys have been waiting, cause here comes the final part. Enjoy!

N362: You're badly hurt, aren't you?

N60: Yeah, it's not that bad though. You don't have to worry.

N362: Numbuh 60, do you by any chance have a first aid kit in your backpack?

N60: Sir, you really don't need to nurse me.

N362: But I want to help.

N60: Honestly, you don't.

N362: You got hurt because of me. I feel it's only necessary that I tend to you.

N60: I said you don't need to!

N362: Why won't you let me help you!

N60: Because I don't need your help, I dopn't need anyone's help! I can look out for myself!

N362: Oh for god sake! You really don't care about yourself do you!? You almost got yourself killed and you don't even care! But then again, you're so impulsive that you never think about anything before you do it, something I can't stand! Your implusiveness as a Drill Sergeant is one thing I can't stand either! You could care less about your cadets because you love the battlefield more! You always leave them to suffer while you run off to protect me! How could you possibly put my own safety over your cadets!?

I could feel my heart beginning to crack as she shouted her sptieful words, pointing out all of my bad points like she always did. I wish I could tell her why I act the way I do, but I know that it's impossible now for us to ahve any future together. Still, I know I need to tell her how I feel. I know I've probably lost all my chances with her, but if she wants an answer, I'll give her answer.

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray

N60: The reason I act so impulsive is because of you!

She stopped her sentence short upon hearing my words, shock becoming clear in her eyes. Since I had already gotten her attention, I decided to continue, because I could feel my heart pounding, telling me to do so.

N60: Rachel, I care about you so much, much more than you could possible imagine. You're smart, and stern, and assertive, and strong, and powerful, and commanding, and relentless. But you're also sweet, and kind, and generous, and caring, and selfless, and beautiful, and wonderful. You're an angel...you're my angel. I'd die if anything happened to you and I couldn't do anything about it. If I couldn't even see your beautiful smile at least once a day, I'd go insane. I 'd do anything you asked of me, I'd even die if I had to, all for your sake. These feelings I have, the ones I've kept for so long in my heart, I know I shouldn't have them. But I know I can't change them now. And the reason is because...I love you.

It felt like time had stopped once I said those three words. But as Rachel continued to stare at me, I began to feel that maybe I made a mistake by telling her how I felt. Or at least that's how I began to feel as I spoke up again.

N60: That's what I wanted to tell you after the mission. But I know you could never love a lowly Drill Sergeant like me, so I understand if you don't accept my feelings.

N362: No...you're wrong.

N60: What do you mean I'm wrong?

N362: Patton...the only reason I yelled at you is because I care about you so much more than you can imagine. You're sweet, and kind, and strong, and compassionate, and brave, and handsome, and caring, and wonderful. You make me feel special, you remind me that there are things in my life I can be happy about. And if anything were to happen to you, especially at my expense...I'd never forgive myself. But what I'm trying to say is...I love you too.

I froze upon hearing her words, and I only had one reason as to why, because my greatest dream had finally come true.

N362: And, on the same token...I'm sorry for yelling at you...

N60: It's alright...I probably deserved it...

As I moved my face closer to her beautiful face, we began to close our eyes. But before my lips could meet with hers, we turned our heads upon hearing a small beeping sound. Seeing a small light blinking object in the snow before us, Rachel kneeled down in the snow and began to dig for the item, me following in pursuit. After a few minutes of digging, she finally pulled out a familiar little device.

N362: The Code Module! We found it!

As she smiled, I couldn't do anything but begin to chuckle. The fact that she was so happy for finding the object we were looking for, just made her too cute for words in my opinion. But then again, when was she never cute in my eyes? Sensing my presence, she looked over at me and gave me a rather confused look.

N362: Why are you staring at me like that?

N60: I'm just dazed by how cute you are.

I saw her blush a light shade of pink at my comment, something I had expected.

N362: You...think I'm cute?

N60: Well...beautiful is more the word. To me you're beautiful...both physically...and as a person...

N362: How...sweet of you...

N60: Only because I'm so in love...

N362: As am I...

Before anything else could occur, my lips met with hers as we began our first kiss. She put her hands on my chest as I wrapped my arms around her skinny waist, causing us to deepen the kiss, the moment becoming more passionate with each second.

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

After what seemed like eternity, we broke free of our kiss. Rachel tucked the Code Module under her arm and we stood up from where we were kneeling. Before we began to walk, I held my hand out to her. She happily took it, and we began to venture back to Arctic Base.

Somehow I felt as though I would wake up from a long dream, but I guess that's what a dream come true feels like. And now that she's all mine, I feel like I've accomplished something. Because now I know we can live in happiness together, for all eternity.

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

The End

[numbuh1362]
