[So, when he first woke up, Nigel got the hell out of the house and didn't intro properly make himself known to those outside of his team. However, now that it's good old Mommy's Day again, 'Mrs. Vette' went out and found him, told him to come home - which he did, to his complete dismay.

What's Kids Next Door?

[numbuh_one]

The Kids Next Door are a global operation dedicated to protecting kids from tyranny. We're all highly trained super agents.

[noneed_2worry]

Super agents? Awesome! Can I join?

[numbuh_one]

Hmm, maybe. Not just anyone can join the Kids Next Door, you know. Most of us have undergone top secret training in Antarctica, so we're very prepared. What are your qualifications?

[noneed_2worry]

Um... I travel around a lot, so I'm pretty good at backpacking and camping and stuff like that. I can cook for myself if I really have to, but the food usually isn't very good. Oh, and I've got my Pokemon with me too, so they can help out!

[numbuh_one]

Umm - [that doesn't really sound like traits for an Operative, but he'll bite on the last bit]

What are Pokemon?

[noneed_2worry]

They're creatures back in the world I'm from. People use them for lots of different things, like helping around the house, making their jobs easier... stuff like that. Some people even train them to battle! I have two of mine here with me. Pachirisu is an electric squirrel, and Buneary's a rabbit Pokemon that can shoot ice beams and bounce really high!

[numbuh_one]

Hey, cool!

And you say these Pokemon answer to you?

[noneed_2worry]

Yeah, I'm their trainer! Pachirisu is a little hyperactive sometimes, but I've been working with him, and he's been getting a lot better lately! Do you want to see them sometime?

[numbuh_one]

That would be very helpful. What's your name, kid? Oh yeah - and how old are you?

[noneed_2worry]

My name's Dawn, and I just had my tenth birthday this year.

...How come all you Kids Next Door want to know how old I am, anyway?

[numbuh_one]

It's the rules, you know. No younger than 8, no older than 12.

[noneed_2worry]

Really? Why is that...?

[numbuh_one]

Well, our work is often dangerous, so we'd prefer not to have kids that are too young. We are supposed to be protecting them, and that's part of it.

As for the upper limit, once you hit 13 you're a teenager, and teenagers can be almost as bad as adults. You never know who you can trust.

[noneed_2worry]

...Really? I've met a lot of teenagers and adults that don't seem so bad. Are they bad people in your world?

[numbuh_one]

Well, sure, there are normal teenagers and normal adults, but the bad guys are most certainly adults! Big Boss, Stickybeard, Count Spankula, all adults. The biggest villain is a shadow man called Father, and his children, the Delightful Children from Down the Lane. They're all brainwashed to be goody two-shoes or something. And the teenagers work with them. They hatch many an evil scheme to trample upon the rights of kids the world over. That's why the Kids Next Door exist!

And it seems like this Mayfield town is exactly the same. We're going to have to work extra hard to keep the kids here safe.
