If we're being Honest 1

Author Note: Hiya! This is Pooffoop1 writing another KND fic! Okay, this one is for yougotburned's contest. Enjoy!

Kuki was upside down on her bed, chewing her gum, her music humming in her ears. She'd been all wound up about this her entire life, ever since she joined. But now it was here and she couldn't deny it.

She was thirteen now. And she had to leave the KND.

Nigel was waiting for her outside and she knew it. But she hated to think this was all going to be gone. So she was just soaking in the place before she forgot it all. Sighing, she spit out her gum into her Rainbow Monkey wastebasket and trudged out.

The summer air touching her gently didn't do anything for her mood. She followed her soon to be formor leader to the base and stared at the asfault. All these years of excitement and love…gone. She had to use her over-sized green sleeve to wipe away her tears.

When they arrived, Kuki sat on a seat on the stage. Her team sat behind her, looking somber and sad. Well, Hoagie was already gone, but Abby and Walabee were there. Nigel made a little speech about her before sitting with them. Sniffing, Kuki got in the machine.

When the blast had come and gone, she stepped out lazily. She now wore a small green tank top that showed off her skinny stomach, ripped blue jeans held by a belt, and combat boots. Her midnight hair fell to her hip, and her arms were crossed as she chewed her gum, making her cheeks, now all covered in make-up like the rest of her face, rise and fall quickly.

"Where am I?" she asked in this bratty, bored voice.

"It doesn't matter," Nigel told her, "Numb-Wallabee will take you home."

Trying to cry, the oprange hooded boy led her out the doors and to her home.

"Here we are," he stopped and let go of her hand.

"Thanks, kid..I guess," she shrugged him off, going inside and slamming the door.

Number 4's heart throbbed, still in love with her. When he felt a hand on his shoulder, he found himself between Nigel and Abby.

"We'll…" Nigel shifted, not getting how his friend felt.

"Go home and meet you later," Abby gave him the look that said she understood, "Number 5 thinks you just need to be alone."

Wallabee nodded as his two left him. Slumping on a nearby bench, the boy stared lifelessly into the setting sky.

That was a year ago.

And how all of them were now was going to shape them all for the ride of their teenage lives…together.

Author Note: Oh, wow. That sounds suspenseful! Okay: Reviews=Chapter 2! :D
