Triple Threat
Ron sighed as he looked at the blank face on Kim's face. "KP, don't you remember me?" The redhead smiled at him. "Of course, I do!" Kim said as her eyes brightened. Ron felt his anxiety lift at that smile. Of course, she couldn't forget the Ron Man! The blonde thought, a little smugly. Ron's grin of satisfaction faltered with Kim next words. "You're my brother." Ron's jaw dropped. Then, he looked past Kim to the laughing twins just in the doorway of the Possible House. "Tweebs…" Ron growled as his eyes sparked in anger. Kim shook her head. "What did they do?" Kim asked in confusion. "You should be happy, Ron. They, along with Mom and Dad, helped me recover." Ron shook his head. "KIM, you're missing the point!" Ron growled. "I'm your boyfriend!" Kim stumbled back at the force in Ron's voice. Something inside her was shocked at Ron's outburst and was screaming that this wasn't her friend.
Kim looked back at her family helplessly. Ann glared at Ron and walked up to the boy. She grabbed him by the arm and dragged him away from Kim. "Ron, Kim is in a fragile state right now. Blasting her with huge news like you just did could break her." The woman growled softly with a glare that looked as if it could melt tungsten. Ron was surprised and unconsciously started fidgeting and shaking his head. Ann looked at Rufus. The mole rat smiled at his owner and started singing softly.. "N-no…no…NO! She's MY girlfriend!" Ron growled. Anne nodded. "I know that, but Kim needs to rediscover connections ON HER OWN!" Ron shivered and then he slapped Anne's hand away when she tried to comfort him. "I think I should go, Mrs. Possible." Ron said calmly as he walked away.
James watched the boy walk to his scooter and putter away. Then, he looked at his wife. "I never knew Ronald was so unstable." James said as he looked at Kim and his wife. "Ron's a High Functioning Autistic." The neurosurgeon explained. "We can cope with change but still don't like it. Autistic people have difficulty coping with changing situations, especially big ones like this." Ann explained. "We just have to be patient with him and Kimmie Cub..." She told her husband with a kind smile that faded as she realized there was an unknown variable in play. "…assuming that Shego woman doesn't do anything to her while she's wiped clean." James nodded. "I agree, but I don't think Shego will harm Kim in our daughter's current state." Ann gave her husband a surprised expression, so he motioned for her to follow him inside.
"Wade," the rocket scientist called. "I know you're listening, so can you put recorded fights between Kim and Shego up in the living room screen?" The large TV in the living room came to life with Wade in the upper right corner. "Keep an eye on the progression." James told Ann as they sat down together to watch. Wade had an idea of what James wanted and grinned. Being the ten year old he was, Wade was very interested in this new development and saw a chance to make Kim happy and return Shego to heroics in this experiment. The problem was, he needed both Possibles on board for his matchmaking to begin. James watched his daughter and her arch foe fight. (Drew Lipsky may have been smart, but the common sense he needed to be a true threat, he lacked.) After a bit of watching the recordings, James watched his wife to see when it would click.
As the fights continued, Ann realized something. "There's a gradual shift in the tone of the fights. They go from serious to almost playful, but after Kim decided to take Ron, Shego begins to be less playful and more serious again, even throwing flirting into the mix." James just nodded at his wife's observations. "Why do you think that is?" James posed. "What would cause Shego to regress?" Ann had a thought but shook her head and laughed it off. James frowned slightly at his wife's laughter. "What?" She asked with mirth in her eyes. "Are you saying that as Kim and Shego fought, Shego developed feelings for Kim, and when Kim chose Ron, Shego lashed out because of a broken heart but also stepped up the flirting in hopes that Kim would start to see her differently?" James nodded. "Exactly and with Kim a clean slate, Shego will try to move as soon as she hears that Kim's an amnesiac." Ann sighed. Today was going to be a long day.
Meanwhile, Kim stood in the front yard pacing. Looking down at the grass was not a good idea right now. The redhead realized that the first time she looked at her feet. In her mind, the grass morphed into mesmerizing green flames. Kim shook the image away and continued staring straight ahead. "Why did Ron act that way?" Kim mumbled to herself. "He's like my brother. Dating him would be totally awkweird!" She said with a laugh. "sure, Kim shook her head and sighed. "Why does that image of green fire make me feel weird?" Kim thought aloud as she continued to pace.
Her Kimmunicator chirped at that moment. Wade smiled and waved at his friend. "I could help with that." Wade said as he disappeared and an image of a mugshot appeared. Wade smiled behind his computer as he heard Kim's breath catch. "Her name is Shego, and she's wanted in eleven countries. Make that twelve. Kim thought as as she looked into the steely eyes of her forgotten rival. "I wish I knew where Shego was." Kim mumbled as she continued to pace. "I really need to talk to her." Wade chuckled. All too easy… He thought as he grinned. Wade smiled as he found the green woman. "She's robbing a jewelry store in town." Wade tried to ask Kim if she needed a ride, but Kim was already sprinting toward the business district of Middleton. "Go get her, Kim." Wade said to his blacked out screen as a slow smile spread across the boy's face.
Shego was in a bad mood. Kimmie hadn't shown at Drakken's after the mishap that resulted in the hero's mind being wiped. The green woman shook her head angrily. She's Kim fucking Possible! She can beat amnesia…as well as date a guy that doesn't know jack about her! Shego growled and raised her lit fist to melt through the glass window. Shego froze the moment she heard, "Shego!" The woman being called stumbled at the voice and looked toward its source. The sight before Shego's eyes made the green woman growl and run towards Kim with her fists lit. Kim's eyes widened, and she slid under Shego before the woman could slam a fist through Kim's face. The hero then rolled and seized Shego from behind by her arms. "All I want-"
Shego flipped out of Kim's grip and glared at Kim as tears stood in her eyes. "To lock me away and never look back. You made that clear when you tried to kill me by knocking me into a tower!" Kim's eyes went wide, and it was her turn to tear up. "I what?!" Shego sneered. "You can't win me over with that act, KIM!" Kim shivered and looked at Shego as her mind triggered something. "Call me Pumpkin, please." Shego blinked in surprise when she heard that plea. "Why should I?" The green woman growled. Kim shocked Shego as the redhead walked intimately close to Shego, paying no mind to the lethal hands writhed in green plasma. Kim stood on her toes and kissed Shego!
As Kim held her lips to Shego's Kim's memory filled itself in. Once Kim broke the kiss, she looked at Shego sadly. "Ron was a mistake. He's like my goofy yet lovable brother. I'm sorry I didn't see that sooner, Shego. The green thief's mouth twitched into a smile for a moment but it quickly left her face as she pushed Kim away. "This has to be some trick set up by Betty." Kim raised an eyebrow at the name. "Who's Betty, a vindictive ex-girlfriend?" Shego's eyes widened and she started laughing hard. "Wow, Kimmie, that machine really did wipe you clean." Kim grinned and shook her head, "…and you brought me back." Kim said with a small smile. Shego moves to kiss Kim again as their eyes glowed with passion. Kim was a little unsure of what to do at first but finally relented and met Shego's lips with her own.
The passion was broken by a scream. "KP?! How could you?!" Kim tensed. "Ron, I didn't mean to hurt you…" Ron glared at her as he took on a blue aura and attacked her. "Crap!" Kim groaned as she worked to stay ahead off Ron's MMP. "Shego, plasma stun Ron please." Shego smiled at the thought and rushed Ron. The two kept pace for some time. Then, Ron slipped and Shego knocked him out with a jolt of plasma. "SHEGO?!" Kim said in shock. "Don't worry your pretty little ginger head. He's only knocked out. He'll think it was a bad dream." Shego said gently as Kim walked over to Ron. "Let me take him home. Then, we can talk." Kim said calmly as she walked away with an unconscious Ron in her arms.
