I wrote this a while back, when I was bombarded with several ideas. I'm thinking about continuing it. If ya like it, let me know and I'll probably get to working on it.

A wicked smile graced his lips as the final pieces to his latest plans came together. It made him positively ecstatic that he had been able to think of this scheme, spend a few months putting it together, and succeed in finishing without Kim Possible catching on. He rubbed his hands together in anticipation. Soon, he will unleash his plan onto the world. Nothing would stop him this time; he was sure of it.

Kim sighed as she closed the locker door, feeling as though she had not slept in days, which she actually hadn't. World saving left little time for her to spend on her school work and almost no time to relax, but she always managed somehow. It seems, however, that luck is no longer on her side as she was finally feeling the afteraffects of no sleep.
"KP? You all right?" came Ron's voice behind her. She turned, smiling softly as she saw his form come into view, clad in his football uniform, obviously fresh from practice. "You look like hell, twice over."
"I just haven't been getting much sleep. Senior year apparently has the most workload. With exams, college addmissions and everything, I don't have much time to relax, and the whole hero bit isn't helping much."
"Well, then take a break from it." He laughed at the glare sent his way, much to her displeasure. "I know that you don't agree with it, and I don't really either. I love helping you, ya know. But if it's too much too take on right now, then take a short break, get yourself together, and let GJ handle the world saving until your ready to get back."
"You know, I hate how you always hide this wisedom and insight from everyone but me. You shouldn't always dumb yourself down like you do."
"Ah, Kimila, its just worth it to see their faces when I bust out my mad Ron-skills!" To emphasis his point, he did a series of kung-fu moves, which provoked laughter from his girlfriend.
"Still, it'd be nice to not have everyone look down on you."

Shego watched him walk in and out of his lab several times in the past few days. She sat in one of the lounge chairs, filing her nails while trying to comprehend what could be so important for him to spend most of his days holed up in there. It had been a little over a month since their last attempt at world conquest, which was odd for them. Instead of imidiately starting on another plan, he would go back to that lab.
She had tried entering said lab before, her curiousity piqued at that point in time, only to have him get defensive, saying she could not enter and actually yelling at her, yelling at her. A few smacks here and a plasma-enema threat there had stopped his rant, but he had stood firm on her not entering. Shego had brushed it off, walking away muttering how stupid it must be for him to be so defensive.
Yet here she was, standing in front of the cursed door. Drakken had left for the day, mumbling something about spending the day with his mother. Shego smirked, giving Mama Lipsky some credit. She knew of his evil track record, but she knew that if Drakken knew she knew, he would be crushed. Shaking her head, she got back on task, mentally scolding herself for getting off track and for even being in front of this damn door again.

She stealthily made her way through the warehouse, turning at every little sound she heard. Paranoia racked her being, though this sort of response is acceptable given the certain circumstance. She sighed as she leaned against the wall. Turning her attention to her wrist, she hit a button, turning on a little screen that displayed the soon to be eleven-year-old super genius.
"Are you sure this meeting in ligit, Wade? It seems kind of suspicious to me." Kim questioned the tech guru as she looked around her.
"Positive, but I have the same feeling, so be careful."
"I will, and thanks for the heads up." She disconected the call before making her way towards the designated meeting area inside the building. She was still wary of what lie ahead of her, but still pressed on, determined to get to the bottom of this.
"I honestly didn't think you'd show up, Princess." came the familiar voice. Her gaze jerked to her left, making out a slim figure in the dark. Though she could nto see who ther person was, she was more than certain of their identity.
"Hm, and I didn't think you of all people would be the one who sent the e-mail." Kim replied as Shego came into view. "That itself is suspicious enough. Why would you of all people want to see me?" Shego scoffed out Kim's words, taking notice of the obvious gloating tone.
"Don't think so highly of yourself. I ain't so pathetic as to need your help."
"Then why exactly did you call me here?"
"Ya know, I always thought you'd be the "fight first, ask questions later" type, not the other way around. You never cease to amaze me."
"And skipping around the subject isn't like you either."
"Ah you caught me." Shego gasp in mock surprise. "Whatever shall I do."
"Give me one good reason not to kick your butt and put it in jail." Kim said with all seriousness, making Shego's face form a scowl.
"Fine, fine." Shego pulled something from behind her back and threw it in front of Kim, the object landing with a dull thud. The red-head slowly lowered her gaze to it, still keeping an eye on Shego. It turned out to be a manilla folder filled with paper.
"What's this?"
"That little folder will tell you why I called you here." was Shego's curt reply. Still wary of Shego's presence, Kim leafed through the folder, her eyes widening with every page.
"You can't be serious?! You have to be joking!"
"I wish I was. But think about it, Kimmie. Why would I want to kid about something like this."
"To ruin my reputation?"
"It would ruin mine as well, don't you think?"
"I don't know! I'm trying to figure this all out! How can Drakken possibly do this??"
"I can't grasp it either, yet here I am, talking to you about it. And besides, no on can understand his warped mind, not even himself."
"How do I know this is true and not some stupid scheme of Drakken's?"
"One is that I'm here talking to you. Two is obviously in the stupid folder. And three, there's some solid evidence right over there." Shego jerked her head over to he left. Kim followed the motion, spotting something lying on a blanket. Glancing back to see Shego's nod, Kim made her way over to the aformentioned object.
Quietly nestled on top of the blanket was a little girl, looking to be around 8 years old. She had hair down to her mid-back, the black and red strands contrasting against her white shirt and khaki shorts, both looking to be two sizes too big. She was curled into herself, shivering slightly against the coolness that was the room. Every now and then she would twitch and curl in more, causing a smile on Kim's lips dispite her frustration.
"Now do you believe me?" Shego's bored question drew her out of her daze. Turning slightly so that she could see the plasma-weilder, Kim's gaze softened before she replied.
"Yeah, I guess I have to. It doesn't get any more solid than that. But I have one question though." She took the wolder woman's silence as a gesture to move on. "What now?"
--------
"Tell me again why we're here of all places, Pumpkin." Shego asked with annoyance ringing through her voice as well as showing on her face.
"One, because it's someplace that Drakken would last look for you. Two, I odn't trust you enough for you to pick the place. And three, I have most of the things we need to sort out this whole inconvenience." Kim stated, giving Shego what could pass as a gloating gaze. The older woman sighed in reponse, shifting the wait of the young chold on her back. Kim walked ahead, unlocking the door to her house as they reached the door.
"I couldn't just leave that damn door well enough alone now could I? Stupid." Shego mumbled. She stopped following as a thought hit her. "Hey, Princess."
"Yeah?"
"Have you even thought of how you're going to explain this?" She watched as the teen hero stiffen before relaxing, pitching a glare over her shoulder.
"That's why your here isn't it?" Kim's glare intensified as she saw the amused grin on Shego's face. She turned and continued her route inside, an amused Shego following.
