It's Time They Knew

Explaining and Searching Part 1

No​ ​POV

"Henry, are you saying what I think you're saying?" Mr. Hart wanted to clarify.

"Yes, I'm saying that I am Kid Danger." Henry clarified, nervous to how they might react.

"Prove it!" Piper demanded. Henry rolled his eyes.

"I just showed you the ManCave. Only Captain Man and Kid Danger would know where the
ManCave is." Henry pointed out.

"True, but..." She was at a loss for words, until...

"I had a crush on Kid Danger, but this whole time he was YOU?! That's messed up!" Piper
exclaimed.

"Yeah, try being on the receiving end of that." Henry shuddered. Before anything else could be
said or done, Ray walked out of the sprocket door into the ManCave.

"Hey Henry, Henry's family." He greeted.

"Hey Ray. Henry says that he is Kid Danger, is that true?" Mrs. Hart asked. Ray sighed.

"Yes, it's true. And I'm Captain Man." He informed.

"And to prove it..." Henry picked up a bat that was conveniently just leaning up against the wall,
and looked at Ray.

"May I?" He asked. Ray nodded.

"Go ahead." Henry swung the bat, breaking it over Ray's head, as he flinched in pain.

"I'm okay!" Ray shouted his famous Captain Man catch phrase.

"You are Captain Man!" Piper exclaimed.

"Yeah. You know I hired Henry almost 2 years ago now, but now you know that I hired Henry to
be my sidekick because I needed some help. I needed someone who is younger, brave, and
had great fighting skills, who is also reliable, trustworthy, and has a sharp eye. Henry has all of
those qualifications, and he's the best sidekick I've ever had." Ray explained.

"Thanks Ray," Henry smiled at the compliments.

"But why didn't you tell us?" Mr. Hart asked Henry.

"I really wanted to tell you, a long time ago, but I took an oath. I promised never to tell anyone
without Ray's permission, because if this secret got into the wrong hands, it could become
dangerous for all of us." Henry explained.

"We're proud of you honey." Mr & Mrs. Hart told him, but it was the words from his sister that
surprised him the most.

"I'm proud of you too Henry." She stated. Henry smiled.

"Thanks." He replied proudly. Before anything else could be said or done, they all heard
screams followed by a loud thud, as the elevator door slid open. Henry's friend Charlotte walked
out, while his other friend Jasper was lying on the floor.

"Why must that thing be so fast?" He breathed.

"You'll get used to it eventually." Henry assured as Jasper stood up and dusted himself off as he
walked over to the couch.

"Hi Mr & Mrs. Hart, Piper." Jasper greeted, but then he stopped in his tracks, as Charlotte slowly
turned around.

"Wait, Mr & Mrs. Hart?! PIPER?!" Jasper screamed.

"Henry, why is your family here?!" Charlotte panicked. Henry opened his mouth to answer her,
but then Ray chimed in.

"Don't worry, I gave him permission to bring them down here and tell them everything because
they deserve to know." Ray explained.

"She was asking me." Henry pointed out. Ray just shrugged.

"Oh, okay." Charlotte went back to her work. Suddenly, a short man in coveralls walked into the
room, singing Taylor Swift, until he noticed everyone.

"Oh, hi guys!" He greeted.

"Hey Schwoz. You remember my family right? You know, green fingers, and you also crashed
through our roof during a storm?" Henry reminded.

"Wait, that was him?" Piper asked.

"Yeah. Anyway Schwoz this is my family; my mom, my dad, and my little sister Piper. Everyone,
this is Schwoz, he's our repairman. He built everything here in the ManCave." Henry introduced
Schwoz to his family, and his family to Schwoz, as they waved to each other. Ray already told
him that Henry'd be bringing his family here, so he was already up to speed with the story.
"So who else knows about this?" Mr. Hart asked.

"Just everyone here in this room, as well as Gooch and Bork upstairs. And you can't tell anyone!
We have to keep this between us!" Henry warned.
