Jinxed
Chapter One
Kim held Ron's arm tightly as they made their way to the theater. Their date was turning out to be the best one by far. They went to the park and listened to a jazz band play, then they went to a ritzy new restaurant that they had to reserve for four months in advance; even with their celebrity status and Wade's hacking skills. Now the final cherry to top their ultimate date sundae was to see the premiere of the new action flick Steel Toe vs. Pain King. The movie wouldn't be in theaters until next week, but Ron scored exclusive tickets, courtesy of Steel Toe.
They approached the man in the ticket booth and handed him their tickets. He smiled and let them in. They looked for their theater and found it, but before they could enter they encountered a horrible sight.
"Kim, Ron," Bonnie called. The brunette had Senior Senior Junior with her, who was carrying the food and drinks in his massive arms. He looked like a leaning tower and swayed every so often, but able to correct himself at just the right moment. Regardless, both looked stunning, which made Kim's blood boil. She didn't want any problems on her date, but Bonnie was one with a capital P.
Hi, Bonnie," Kim said through gritted teeth. Ron gave a calmer hello.
"My, my, you both look very nice. On a date or did you steal a designer outfit from Cocoa Banana and are here trying to hid from the authorities?" Bonnie laughed.
Kim bristled, but Ron's touch helped her simmer down.
"Actually we're about to go see the new Steel Toe vs. Pain King movie. It's going to be bon-diggity!" Ron said.
"What a coincidence, so are we," Bonnie replied, her grin proudly displaying her happiness to see Kim, which meant another chance to humiliate her.
Ron could feel Kim's skin turning icy cold.
"Uh, KP? I think the movie is starting. Let's go find a seat." Ron pulled at Kim until she started to walk with him.
Bonnie flashed a wicked smile and walked behind them with Junior. Kim turned her head to glare at her rival.
"Don't let her get to you, Kim. She can't ruin our perfect date." Ron leaned in and kissed her neck.
Kim sighed and returned the favor. He always knew how to calm her down when she was getting in a "I want to tear your head off" mode.
They looked behind them and saw Bonnie glowering at them and trying to get Junior to kiss her neck. Problem was, he was having enough trouble carrying their drinks, large popcorn, and two hotdogs. Bonnie grabbed at his arm and tried to pull him into her.
This caused him to lose his footing and the food went flying. Bonnie's screams alerted everyone in the theater. Her outfit was now covered in soda, ketchup, and popcorn. Her hair covered her face, but Kim and Ron knew what her angry face looked like.
Everyone laughed at the sight. Bonnie ran out, with Junior close behind holding a handful of napkins and paper towels.
They entered the theater and found two empty seats in the center, the perfect viewpoint. They were surprised it hadn't been claimed by anyone else. People at these premieres acted like animals. Always wanting the best seat and if anyone so much as coughed, they would get pounced on. Kim and Ron looked around, but no one was claiming the seats, so they scooted over and sat down just as the previews were starting.
Kim nestled her head on Ron's well-developed shoulder. They didn't buy any drinks or food since they already ate. This gave them open space to curl up next to each other. It may have been an action flick, with tons of explosions and gunfire, but it was also a good time for the two teens to have some snuggle time; at least before they headed home.
The movie was beginning. Ron had waited for over a year to see this movie and he was seeing it with the love of his life leaning against him. Things were perfect.
Beep beep be BEEP, Beep beep be BEEP
Kim slapped her hand over the Kimmunicator to muffle the noise, but it didn't help much. People in the theater turned and put their fingers to their lips at the teens. Some looked ready to do the pouncing. Kim and Ron smiled at them and apologized as they quickly walked to the swinging door.
After they were out, Kim activated the device.
"Wade, this better be important," Kim growled.
Wade's face popped onto the screen, his hand up in a peace sign. "Hey guys, how's the movie?" he asked weakly.
"It just started," Ron replied. "Can this wait?"
Wade shook his head. "Sorry guys, criminals wait for no one."
"Can't Global Justice handle this?" Kim groaned.
"This mission is a request straight from Betty herself. They've tried to capture these new criminals several times, but have been unsuccessful. They sound pretty desperate."
"Who are they?" asked Ron, suddenly curious because Global Justice couldn't catch them.
Wade typed on his keyboard. "They call themselves the Jewel Sisters. Their names are Pearl, Jade, and Ruby."
"That fits," said Ron. "I'm guessing that bling is their thing?"
Wade nodded. "It's what they steal. Gems, jewels, jewelry, anything with precious stones"
"Ha, I so called that, boo-yah!" Ron pumped his fist up in the air.
"Calm down, Ron. Wade, what's the mission?" asked Kim.
"The sisters, and their henchmen, have been spotted at the Upperton Museum. There's a small jewel exhibit being displayed there, but the big prize is a large blue diamond called the Jinx Gem."
"The Jinx Gem?" Ron and Kim said together.
"Yeah, legend says that the gem has mystical powers and that anyone who touches the gem is temporarily afflicted with bad luck," Wade informed. "That's why it's called the Jinx Gem."
"We're on our way, Wade." Kim shut off the screen. "Let's go, Ron."
Ron looked back at the theater. He could hear the sounds of Steel Toe and Pain King fighting, and what's that? Explosions!? Gunfire!?
"Roooonnnn," Kim beckoned. She was bombarded by her boyfriend's attempt at a puppy dog pout. "Forget it, we'll see the movie when it comes out next week, now let's go!" She pulled Ron away from the theater. He was still digging his heels, so Kim decided to play hardball.
Kim grabbed Ron's head and planted a massive kiss on his lips. His socks nearly popped off. When she pulled away, Ron had a distant and happy look on his face.
"If you want more kisses like that, then you need to forget about the movie," Kim blackmailed.
"Done," Ron said immediately. "What're you waiting for, Kim? Let's move!" In a flash he was out the door.
Kim smiled. "Right behind you."
The Sloth pulled into the parking lot of the Upperton Museum. It seemed quiet, too quiet. There were no guards patrolling the area and the outside cameras were either turned off or destroyed.
Kim turned on the Kimmunicator. "Wade, is there a good way to sneak in?"
The boy genius typed at his computer, then looked at the screen. "There's a garage behind the main building, that's also where the security office is located."
Thanks, Wade." Kim shut off the Kimmunicator.
The two teens made their way to the back, making sure to be very quiet. Global Justice didn't have much information on the sisters or how dangerous they were. The only thing they knew was their names and that they had henchmen and henchwomen… lots of them.
They reached the back where the garage door was, but it was closed and locked from the inside. Kim noticed a vent on the wall next to the garage. That would be perfect for Rufus to scout the ahead area, but they left Rufus at Ron's house for their date and had decided that going home to pick him up would risk letting the criminals get away, so they unfortunately made the tough choice of leaving him behind, but Rufus understood the mission and was being fed information by Wade. So in spirit, he was with them.
Kim pulled out her laser lipstick from her pocket and began cutting at the steel door. After a few moments, there was a nice hold for the two to walk into. They immediately saw two black trucks that screamed criminal's car.
Kim and Ron each went to a truck and deflated the tires. After that, they headed for the security office. They walked down a hallway until they found the marked Security Office. They opened it and saw two henchmen sitting at the table looking at the cameras. One was dressed in a shiny, red jumpsuit, and one was in green. Their hair was sparkled and shiny the same color as their suits, making them look like walking gems.
To the right of the room, in a corner were several guards. They were unconscious and tied up.
"Hey Charlie, that you?" the green henchmen hollered at the sound of the door opening.
Kim and Ron thought fast. Before either of the henchmen could turn, they each received a well-placed karate chop to the back of the neck. Both feel like trees out of their chairs.
Ron lugged the two henchmen away and started tying them up in the corner while Kim stared at the cameras. She scanned each one until she found the one that was displaying the jewel exhibit.
There were at least two dozen henchmen and henchwomen walking around and gathering jewels and gems from display cases. Kim looked at the console for the alarm button, but frowned when she saw it was destroyed.
Ron finished tying up the criminals and checked on the unconscious security guards. All were unharmed. He returned to Kim's side.
"That's a lot of henchmen for a small jewel exhibit," Ron observed.
"They're probably expecting Global Justice," Kim replied. She motioned for him to follow her as they headed out towards the jewel exhibit.
Suddenly they heard a noise behind them and turned to face it. Six henchwomen, dressed in green, red, and white with similar hairstyles to their male counterparts, stood in the hallway.
"Where do you think you're going?" one of them snickered.
"Through you," Kim shot back.
The woman charged at Kim, screaming. She threw a punch, but Kim ducked it. Kim then grabbed the henchwoman's arm and flung her into her friends. They all toppled like bowling pins.
Two of them quickly recovered and charged the teens. Kim and Ron looked at each other. Without saying a word, Ron grabbed Kim's arms and swung her. Kim's legs crashed into the two villains. The rest of the group had gotten up and all attacked at once.
Kim ran along the wall and was now behind the henchwomen. They split up.
The first two went after Kim, but Kim's mastery of dozens of martial arts easily took them out. The last two tried to clothesline Ron. He jumped over them and roundhouse kicked one in the gut. As she doubled over, he delivered another kick to her head. The last one grabbed Ron from behind, but he hip tossed her into the wall, she grunted, and then was still.
The two teens looked around, but no one was left standing. Satisfied, they continued down the hallway.
They arrived at the jewel exhibit. The place was crawling with henchmen, all of them wearing the shiny outfits and crazy hair.
"Be careful! Those gems are very valuable and if you want to leave this museum intact, then you'll do as I say!!!"
The loud, female voice came from the back of the exhibit. Neither Kim nor Ron could see who it was, but it was obviously one of the sisters.
"We need to split up," Kim whispered.
Ron nodded. "Okay, I'll go this way, you go that way." He pointed each direction.
Kim gave him a small kiss on the cheek. "Be careful."
Ron displayed a goofy smile for her and slowly crept behind some large display cases. Kim went in the other direction, behind some other display cases.
They kept looking to see if they could spot any of the sisters each time they moved. Some henchmen kept stuffing their bags full of jewels while others stood watch, every so often glacing around to make sure no one surprised them. Kim was halfway to another hiding spot when…
CRASH!!!
Everyone stopped and turned to Ron, who had accidentally knocked over the display case he was hiding behind. Ron stood up, smiled, and waved.
"Hey, guys," he walked backwards, the broken glass crunching under his feet. "I was just, uh, leaving."
Kim slapped her hand over her face. Ron, you had to be clumsy now?
The henchmen started towards Ron. Ron's back eventually hit a wall. He prepared himself, but Kim wasn't about to let her boyfriend/partner fight alone. Kim jump kicked out of her hiding spot and took out two henchmen. A henchwoman came at her from behind, but Ron's foot met her first. The two teen heroes stood back-to-back, ready.
"Sorry, KP. I didn't see the case tipping over," Ron tried apologizing.
"Not the time, Ron. We're fighting, apologizing is after." Kim upper-cutted one of the red guys in the chin, seeing a tooth fly out of his mouth.
More henchmen came and surrounded the teens. They were about to pounce when a voice stopped them.
"Enough!"
A woman decked out in a glittery, red suit was the owner of the voice. Her hair was blood red and had the same glittery effect as her outfit. Kim recognized her voice as the one that was yelling at the henchmen earlier.
"Well, well. The great Team Possible. I must say we're quite surprised to see you. We knew Global Justice was after us, but we had no idea that you two were recruited to capture us as well. This is truly an honor."
Two more women came to the villain's side. One was decked out in a shiny white suit; her hair was also white and glossy. The other had a green suit, with green, shiny hair.
"Allow us to introduce ourselves: This is Jade, Pearl, and I'm Ruby. And we are the Jewel Sisters."
To be continued.
Hello, everybody!!! Some of you may have noticed that my other story, A Mission That's Out of This World, has been removed. I've tried several times to keep working at it, but I always find myself at a wall.
So I am temporarily taking it off. Let's just say I'm putting the plot bunny in the cage to let him grow a little. I'm am going to finish it, but right now just isn't the right time.
I'm going with other stories that I have a better grip on, like this one. I apologize to all my readers for yanking away the candy, after you've had a bite. Please don't kill me.
I hope you all had a happy holiday and a happy new year. Please enjoy this new story. (I will complete this one). Please review!!! KingOAnime.
P.S. I know I haven't done this, but just to let you know: I don't own Kim Possible, even though I'd love too. She belongs to Disney, as do all her friends and family. The original characters, however, belong to me and none of you can have them. BWAHAHAHA!!!
But if you want to, just ask me.
