Kuki was the first to dart out the doors after Kiki screamed.
"What happened?" She asked.
"Who do you punks think you are?" Kiki yelled. Three boys who looked about Kacey's age, were throwing rocks at a ferret.
Everyone else piled outside.
"This dumb ferret was making a weird noise and we're fixing it." The tallest boy said.
"Ferrets are supposed to make that noise, Smart One!" Kiki yelled. Kacey got wide-eyed.
"What are you guys doing?" She asked.
"Oh, hi Kacey." The tall boy said.
"You know these buttmunches?" Kiki asked.
"Yup. Brandon, Thomas, and Kendall." Kacey said. (These guys are not really mean. They're some of meh closest friends.)
"Sup." Kendall said.
"Why are you guys throwing rocks at a ferret?" Kacey asked.
"Hey, Brandon was pissed at it." Thomas said. "So we threw rocks at it."
"Dude, that's animal cruelty and you could get arrested." Kacey said.
Brandon, Thomas, and Kendall got wide-eyed.
"And you might wanna leave before my fist ends up where your mouth should be." Kiki said.
Kendall and Thomas backed up.
Brandon continued throwing rocks at the ferret.
"Wow, so you're the brave one." Kiki said.
"Oh, I'm so scared. What're you gonna do, eat me?" Brandon said.
Kacey, Megan, Wally, and just about everyone else cracked up.
"You won't be laughing when I bust your face." Kiki said.
"Brandon, it'll be bad on purple and green day if we're one guy short cuz you're in the hospital." Kacey snickered.
"It'll be good for our class." Wally said.
"Shut up!" Kiki said.
"Listen, if you don't mind, I'm gonna be throwing rocks at this ferret." Brandon continued.
And the next thing everybody knew, Brandon was pinned up against a wall.
"DON'T be a fool next to me when the situation has ferrets." Kiki said. Brandon struggled to get down.
Kacey told Kiki to put him down.
And if there's anyone that scares Kiki, it's Kacey.
Brandon cussed under his breath and dragged Kendall and Thomas with him.
Thomas winked at Kiki with a click of his tongue.
"What was that about?" Wally asked.
Kacey shrugged. "The kids in my class are idiots." She said. "And Kendall's not even in my class."
"Wait, what about Scooter, Bonnie, (his girlfriend's name) Thrasher, Jean, Bobby Sniggers, and Waki?" Kuki asked. Sectors V and Q dashed off. Kiki grabbed the poor abused ferret and they ran off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kacey, the most protective of the tree-house, opened the door.
She screamed.
All seven ferrets were in the family room, ripping up the couches, chairs, pillows, just about anything that could get ripped up.
"MY FURNITURE!" Kacey screamed. Kiki dashed it next.
"Oh my God, WHO FORGOT TO CLOSE THE CAGE?" She screamed. Megan and Maddy's eyes pointed toward Wally.
"Why are you guys staring at the best singer of the night?" Kuki asked. Wally blushed.
"He's in charge of the ferrets!" Maddy yelled. Now Kacey was eyeing Wally.
"WHAT?" She screamed.
"Megan paid me five bucks if I would!" Wally said.
"OK, but WHY did you leave the cage open?" Kacey asked.
"I... thought that they might need air." Wally said.
"IT'S A CAGE! NOT A BUCKET!" Megan yelled.
"But, I thought that those holes were too small." Wally said. Kacey looked ready to MURDER Wally. Kuki figured out the situation fast.
"Me and Wally need to have a talk." She said. She grabbed Wally's hand and pulled him upstairs.
"What are you guys waiting for?" Kacey asked. "Herd the ferrets!" Kiki, Megan, Maddy, and Hoagie herded the ferrets, and Kacey and Abby grabbed some sodas.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Wally, when you were singing that song... I figured something out." Kuki said while she and Wally were sitting on her bed.
"What?" Wally asked.
"That... well, YOU wrote me that poem." Kuki said.
Wally's eyes went as large as planets and he felt like he had been stabbed in the heart. "How'd you find out?" He asked.
"Well, 1) It was slipped under my curtain, so it HAD to be someone in this tree-house." Kuki said. Wally blushed. "And 2) You were looking into my eyes the entire time you sang that song. THAT'S when things clicked. You were singing about me in that song, right?"
Wally blushed. "Yes."
"Good."
"Good?"
"Yeah! I never had anyone sing a song about me." Kuki said. "And that's kinda why I was almost crying. It was so... sweet."
"Oh." Wally said.
"UGH! STUPID FERRET!" They heard somebody call from downstairs.
"Maybe we should help them." Kuki suggested.
"OK." Wally said. He left the room. Kuki followed. They could see that the ferrets were scattered in all different directions.
"Get off your butts and help us!" Kiki yelled at Kacey and Abby.
"Nah, Numbuh 5 thinks this is better than cable." Abby said.
"True dat." Kacey and Abby did a toast with their sodas and continued to watch.
"Yeah, we should help them." Wally said. He raced down the stairs and grabbed Thrasher. Kuki stayed upstairs, practically terrified of the large weasels.
"Hey! Come down and help us!" Kiki yelled.
"You have two arms. Use 'em!" Kuki shrieked. She went back to her room.
"Burn." Kacey said.
"Oh, shut up." Kiki said.
"Man, we're out-numbered 5-7." Megan said.
"Congratulations. Did you figure that out all by yourself?" Wally asked. Megan ignored him.
"I mean, we can't catch them all." Megan said.
"Well, if those cable-haters won't help us, we ARE out-numbered." Kiki said.
"Aww! Do we have to?" Kacey pleaded.
"You don't have to, we'd like you to." Megan said.
"Oh, well if those are the choices, then we'll just watch." Abby said. She sipped her soda.
"Nic one, Megan." Kiki said.
"Wait, where'd the ferrets go?" Maddy asked.
"Idiots." Hoagie murmured. He had all the weasels in hand, excluding Thrasher.
Megan was stunned. "How'd you-?"
"Don't make him flirt with you, Megan." Kacey said. She hopped down from her chair, and threw her soda in the trash.
Wally walked upstairs. He put Thrasher in his pocket, and went to talk to Kuki.
