My Pov

I needed to find my team. The whirlwind of events that just happened still blew my mind. First, the museum and the Moonbase were attacked, then Father used the Recommissioning Module on Grandfather and now Grandfather had turned all but me and Numbuh 1 into Senior Citi-zombies. I managed to avoid getting caught and made it back to Numbuh 1's house.

Mr. Uno: "I say Erika! What's going on out there? Playing with your friends?"

Me: "Yeah Uncle Monty. Um... where's Numbuh, I mean, Nigel?" As if hearing his name, Numbuh 1 busted through the front door. Numbuh 1 looked at me then his dad.

Numbuh 1: "Has to be a malfunction. Numbuh 7, where have you been? Why are you dressed lIke that?" I was wearing my Sector Z uniform.

Me: "Working. Listen, Numbuh 1, I need to tell you something. It's about my old Sector. The Sector I was in before was-" Before I could finish, a Senior Citi-zombifield Tolietnator busted open the door. Numbuh 1 quickly slammed the door.

Mr. Uno: "Now Nigel. No need to be rude."

Numbuh 1: "No Dad. You see, we're playing tag and he's it."

Me: "Right. You can't let him touch you, no matter what." I grabbed Uncle Monty's hand and took off up the stairs. Numbuh 1 was right behind us. The Tolietnator flew after us, but as soon as he got close to us, Numbuh 1 literally slammed a door into his face.

Numbuh 1: "Aha! I knew it was here somewhere." He pulled out a V.A.C.D.O.O.M.(Very Airy Cannon Delivers Oscillating Oomph Massively). All of a sudden, multiple Senior Citi-zombifield hamsters and a Senior Citi-zombifield Tommy appeared and attacked us. Numbuh 1 sucked up a bunch of the hamsters and shot them at Tommy. We hurried into Numbuh 1's room. Numbuh 1 tried to use the escape pod connected to his bed, but it malfunction. Then, the hamsters started breaking the door.

Mr. Uno: "I did see a mouse back there."

Numbuh 1: "They're hamsters Dad. And they're not playing!" Numbuh 1 then snapped at his dad, which I found harsh.

Me: "Numbuh 1... you shouldn't yell at him like that."

Numbuh 1: "I'm sorry Dad. I didn't mean to yell at you. It's just-" We looked and saw a hole in the part of tree truck that was in Numbuh 1's room. We jumped into and slid down a long slide before coming to a strange chamber. "I don't believe it. I've run about eleventy-billion tests on this tree and never found a hint of this place."

Me: "Numbuh 1, I think that your dad is Numbuh 0." He looked at me then his dad.

Numbuh 1: "I think you're right." He took out the module. Numbuh 1 used it on his dad and after the light and smoke faded, I could tell something about him changed.

Mr. Uno: "Man, oh man! I've got a hankering for some blurpleberry ice-cream - it's the closest thing to the fourth flavor I've ever tasted!"

Numbuh 1: "Dad... you are Numbuh 0! I can't believe my dad is Numbuh 0!"

Numbuh 0: "Of course I'm Numbuh 0. Where do think you got all your skills?" Numbuh blushed. "Right. Status report Numbuh 1 and 0.6." Numbuh 1 quickly explained the situation.

Numbuh 1: "Wait, Dad. Did you call Numbuh 7, Numbuh 0.6?"

Me: "What I was telling you before... my old Sector was Sector Z."

Numbuh 1: "Sector Z? Not the legendary Sector Z?" I nodded. "Of course! Where else would you have all of the skills you've shown come from? What happened to them? How did you escape?"

Numbuh 0: "Now, now Numbuh 1. You'll find that out soon." Then he looked at me. "Numbuh 0.6, I believe you have your own Recommissioning Module on hand, don't you?" I took it out of my pack and handed it to him. He looked over it. "You put a lot of effort into this." Then he opened it. "Hmm, this seems to have more power than the module I made. Only something I'd expect from one of my own family."

Numbuh 1: "Own family?"

Numbuh 0: "As I said, you'll find out soon. Let's get going. We'll need all the help we can get."

Me: "But Numbuh 0, almost every single operative has been Senior Citi-zombifield."

Numbuh 0: "Who said anything about getting help from the Kids Next Door?" Numbuh 0 opened a secret passage that led us to the Delightful Mansion. We went up to the door and rang the doorbell. The door opened to reveal Father in a vibrate yellow robe with pink feathers.

Father: "Oh, happy day! It's you! Well, come on in, I guess." We walked in, much to Numbuh 1's displeasure. "Sorry for the mess. Like I care anymore."

Numbuh 0: "Why don't you take off that ridiculous outfit?"

Father: "What this? It matches my eyes."

Numbuh 0: "Not that. This!" Numbuh 0 grabbed and tore off both the robe and Father's silhouette suit, revealing his reveal self. I hadn't seen his real self in a long time. "Say 'uncle' son."

Numbuh 1: "But we haven't lost yet."

Father: "And you're suppose to be the smart one. I'm your dad's brother, Benedict. Your uncle!" Numbuh 1 had a momentary breakdown. "I'm also, Erika's father."

Numbuh 1: "Numbuh 7! Your father is actually Father?!"

Me: "You're surprised that I didn't tell you something like that?"

Numbuh 1: "But if your my uncle and Numbuh 7's father, then that makes us cousins and makes Grandfather OUR grandfather!"

Father: "What are you? President of the obvious club or something?"

Numbuh 0: "That's enough! Alright Ben. You know what it's like when Pappy controls the world. This is a second chance, your chance to do the right thing. But I've got a plan. We'll need the help of you and your so-called children." I heard some kind of humming from behind me. I saw the DCFDTL pointing a ray gun at Numbuh 0.

DCFDTL: "How about a helping of this?!" Both me and Numbuh 1 pushed Numbuh 0 out of the way. The DCFDTL got closer and we're about to fire when Father yanked the ray out of their hands.

Father: "No! We have to help them."

DCFDTL: "But Father! That's our archenemy Nigel Uno-"

Father: "Silence! It's my fault for reawakening Grandfather. Fine, he's evil which I admire, but he's also a jerk! I thought he'd at least share control of the world with me, but no-o-o! If he succeeds, I'll be nothing! Which means you'll be nothing! Now I think you like be feared by your peers, right?"

DCFDTL: "Yes Father."

Father: "Good, then we help Uncle Monty."

DCFDTL: "Yes Father... right after we blast these KNDoofuses!" Numbuh 0 pointed my module at them.

Numbuh 0: "Blast this!" He cranked the lever and zapped them.
