[ Secret Neighbor ]

' He's here..'

The footsteps became louder, Everyone was ready to fight with the neighbor.. But- something wasn't just right.. Everyone was shaking, expect for the fearless leader.

'' It might be just the floorboards, they are creaky. this werido never gets renovations in this house anyway.'' Leader spun around facing the group, looking nervous.

Footsteps was heading towards Leader, everyone stepped back slowly, the 2 girls swung out their weapons, ready to attack. '' Whats wrong..'' Leader shivered and felt the cold looks on their faces. '' Behind you..'' Inventor lifted his hand slowly. Leader knew they were serious, but she didn't want to look back now.. she'd knew would get grabbed any second, As long as i dont turn around.. ill be find..

Scout aimed her slingshot at the neighbor's head, thanks to her practicing of aiming correctly, she will shoot the neighbor with a headshot. '' Don't move.'' Detective shivered and whispered to Leader. '' NOW!'' Brave shouted. Boxes, Nuts, and chairs were flying across the hallway, the group was aiming for their enemy, the neighbor. Leader was at the back supporting the group with her lead.

Brave knocked the man out, she was insanely angry, and wanted to attack more, but her brother held her back before she actually kills him. '' Calm down, sis.. you might kill him, hes knocked out already.'' Enzo patted her shoulder, also holding Maritza back. Bagger cried under his cloth, he was scared Leader got attacked, and the neighbor hit her.

'' Im fine, Bagger, calm down.'' Leader gave a cheering support for Bagger to calm down, she knew Bagger hated sad and terrible stuff, She knew he had a experience before. '' Its dangerous here.. '' Bagger shivered. '' Yes. Yes it is.'' Scout nodded and agreed. '' Leader? did he atleast hurt you?'' Enzo put his arms on Leader's shoulders.

'' Im fine, thank you for asking.'' Leader smiled at Enzo's caring face.

..Scout's POV..

As Enzo said, i could get refills somewhere, i found a bag of nuts somewhere in the garage, ... He put nuts in a motato bag- who the hell does this anymore? To basic, yet to werid.

-End of Scout's POV-

'' Guys! The neighbor puts the refills in motato bags-'' Scout had a werid look while pointing to a open sack of nuts, had a title of : 'Motato'. '' Thats just werid..'' Inventor swinging his hammer. '' This whole house is werid. like him. what is he even hiding in his god darn basement?'' Brave put the bat back in her bat holder.

Leader grabbed a missing poster from her small purse and shoved it in Brave's face. '' This is a missing kid, she or he, was taken by the neighbor, believe it or not. We are going in the basement to save them.'' Leader exclaimed. '' Right- I frogot.'' Brave rolled her eyes and walked to Scout.

'' What you staring at?'' Brave looked at scout with a curious look.

Scout was tieing a elastic band around the slingshot, '' Sorry. my elastic band just broke.'' Scout swung her hips round, giving Brave a cold statue look.

'' Alright then.. and- Is it just me or.. you know when we found the blood.?'' Brave shivered.

'' Yes, What about it-'' Scout had a face of curiosity. '' You think the neighbor killed someone..?'' Brave muttered. '' What kind of Monster would kill their own daughter..'' Scout cold's face, turned into a shocked face. '' Not everything what i'm saying isnt true though-''Brave tried making it seem like it's not real-

'' Ok, Good.'' Scout contiued fixing her slingshot. Bagger stared at the garage door, He wanted to be like his friend, Brave. The group barely had any fears, meanwhile himself scared of almost everything, Bagger clutched onto his bag and open the handle of the garage door. This door leaded to a dining room, a table with 4 chairs in the right side, and a living room on the left side in the room.

..Bagger's POV..

I was scared, i decided to head back to the garage, but it was to late now.. I want to become just like Brave, fearless and strong! I held onto the straps of the backpack, and slowly scooted to the bookshelves near the living room. I opened a few cabinets and closets, looking for something. I sadly didnt find any escape keys, looking a bit calm, there was no one in the room, the group was still in the garage.. i could scoot back in the garage, but i need to look for our escape- so we can get out of here and get the poor missing child.

-End of Bagger's POV-

Bagger walked towards the garage door, he tried opening the handle, but it was locked. They have blocked of the door. '' G-Guys.. open the door please!'' Bagger was knocking swiftly on the door. No response. He shivered. '' Please! I hate being alone! all of you know that!''

-Meanwhile with the group.-

'' Guys.. Wheres bagger..'' Leader fixed her skirt. '' ...SHIT! BAGGER HATES BEING ALONE- AND I THINK WE LOCKED HIM OUT THE GARAGE!'' Brave snapped and dashed to the garage.

'' Brave! wait for us!'' The group ran after Brave.

-Meanwhile Bagger-

Bagger was sobbing near the door, as he heard loud footsteps behind the garage door. '' Its them!'' Bagger shivered and nuzzled his face in his coat. As he took one more glance at the door, the door was broken open. '' Bagger! Were so sorry..'' Brave apologised to Bagger a million times and hugged him, '' Im sorry- we thought when we heard footsteps in this room, we thought it was him.. Im sorry, ill check next time..'' Bagger hugged Brave back.

!NOT A SHIP SO DONT EVEN THINK IT IS!

Brave let go of Bagger, and helped him up. '' We were wrong to just block the door, assuming it was the neighbor.. it could have been someone else.'' Scout stated. Enzo look around the room outside the garage, and kept snapping pictures for evidence to report.

Leader planned, it was time for the search to find the keys, She planned they should spilt up in Buddy Systems, Brave & Bagger, Inventor & Scout, and Detective & Leader. They thought it was a smart idea, and..

They starting searching.
