Here's another different kind of story. If you don't like it… please don't hurt me…
Disclaimer: I'm sure y'all know that I don't own any of the characters involved in this little story, but I just need to make the liars… I mean, Lawyers… happy.
Terrible Tara
Tara hadn't been able to sleep for the last week as thoughts continued to plague her concerning her feelings for a certain blonde-haired boy.
Ron and Kim have been dating now for what… the summer plus a month or two, and I STILL haven't gotten over him? The shapely blonde lay back on the couch at about 3 in the morning with the TV volume low so as not to awaken her parents.
Her senior year wasn't too bad so far, but she was at a loss at this point to figure out why she hadn't been able to get a boyfriend. 'Course the fact that she wasn't even trying might have something to do with it.
She forked another piece of chocolate cake into her mouth and turned the volume up a bit as a new info-mercial came on that she hadn't seen before. She thought she recognized the two actors, but couldn't quite put her finger on where she had seen them before. The man was tall, had a scar under his left eye, and also had his black hair pulled back into a ponytail. If his skin had been blue, the guy would be a dead ringer for that guy that Kim was always fighting.
The woman also looked familiar, yet not. She had long black hair that almost reached her knees, and she had piercing green eyes. If her skin had been green in tint, Tara would have sworn that it was that green lady that Kim also fought.
But it couldn't be those two. Could it? After all, they were in jail. Right?
The man held open a small box and continued his sales pitch. "Yes, that's right. For only a mere 39.95, this ring can be yours. Imagine… all the strength and beauty you could ever want, and never have to even try at it!
"So ladies… if you are alone tonight, sitting on the couch eating chocolate cake and wishing that you could have any guy you ever wanted, order this ring now, and become as strong and beautiful as my side… err… lady friend here is. You could have any guy you ever wanted! She… Shauna, would you please show our viewers what you can do?"
Shauna then walked over to a small gun safe, leaned over, picked it up, and threw it out of frame of the camera, causing a loud crashing sound. She then looked into the camera and spoke.
"Ladies, if it wasn't for this ring here that Dr. Dra… Driscol here invented, I wouldn't look like this, or be able to do that. In fact, this is my before picture."
The image of a small frail girl appeared on the screen that looked vaguely like Shauna, but she was frail, and definitely wasn't very good looking.
Shauna continued the pitch. "So call the number on the bottom of your screen and ask for the… Body Enhancer Ring, and you will get the ring for 39.95, plus shipping and handling. Call within the next 2 minutes, and you will also receive this handsome velvet-lined box to keep it in!"
The picture on the TV changed to an enlarged picture of the ring, and the price of 39.95 was in large print layered over the picture, and an 800 number scrolled across the bottom of the screen. The last thing that was heard was the two pitch-persons saying in unison, "Call now!"
"Why not?" Tara said to herself, and dialed the number.
…x x x x…
Drakken hung up the phone and turned to Shego. "We sold one!"
"That's great Doc… I've got someone on the line here who want's to buy also.
"Say what…?"
"In fact… this entire calling board here is lit up with people who want to buy this ring! This plan might just actually work!" Shego was starting to get excited about Drakken's latest plan.
"But… but… I… don't have anymore." Drakken said feeling a bit defeated.
"What!" Shego said clenching her hands in frustration. "You only made ONE stinking ring?"
"I… umm… didn't expect such a demand for them. I was going to sell the one, and use the money from it to build another. After all… it only costs me 20 bucks for the parts."
"Wait… that's all it costs to build a ring that combines HenchCo's muscle ring, the Moodulator chip, and the Attitudinator?" Shego was almost dumbfounded by this revelation.
"Well… after you steal a few more parts, it does."
"Oy…" Shego replied placing her fingers to her head as if she was getting a splitting headache. Then she had a thought. "Did you already ship the one off?"
"Yes…" Drakken said hoping that his sidekick wasn't going to vaporize his butt. "The order has gone into the system I have set up at our lair. It should already be picked up by GPS and heading for it's final destination."
A new voice seemed to suddenly echo from the walls. "And just where would that be, Drakken?" After Kim Possible's voice echoed in the room, both her and Ron dropped out of a grate just a few feet away from the blue-skinned villain, startling him.
"Ahh! Where … how… It's 3 o'clock in the morning! Were you up all night scanning the TV or something?" Drakken looked thoroughly confused.
"Nah…" Ron said. "But if we told all our secrets, then we wouldn't ever get the
drop on you again."
"Now if you would be kind enough to tell us who you shipped that ring off to, we'll just be on our way." Kim asked with a hand on her hip.
"Never!" Drakken responded. "It's now in the hands of the Postal service, and you know how they are about information. It's a Federal crime just to open someone's mail that's not addressed to you!"
Kim growled in frustration, because she knew he was right. Suddenly she had another idea. "Then let me have the call records from your calling board there."
Drakken stepped up to the board. "Oh… you mean this calling board?" He said, and pressed a red button next to him. "Dear me… I think I just accidentally hit the 'Delete' button."
"So sorry Princes." Shego said charging her hands. "Now you don't have any charges that will stand up in court. Whatcha going to do now?"
Kim turned on her heels, grabbed Ron by the arm, and left. Just before they headed out the door, Kim called over her shoulder. "I'll find out what this ring does and who you sent it to sooner or later Drakken. And when I do, I'll have enough charges to put the two of you in jail for a long time."
"Well at least they don't know what it does." Drakken said after the door closed.
"Do you?" His lippy sidekick answered as she doused her hands.
…x x x x…
Three shipping days later, a package arrived at Tara's house, and when she saw it sitting on the table, she knew exactly what it was. Immediately she grabbed the large padded envelope and headed up to her room. She locked the door, even though no one was home, and tore open the large envelope.
A small velvet box fell out onto her bed, she picked it up, and opened the lid. Inside was a Titanium colored ring that shone with the light. Small diamond designs were etched around the circumference of the ring.
Tara gently took the ring out of the box, and turned it in the light inspecting it. "It's… beautiful." She said under her breath.
She placed the ring on her right hand index finger, and inspected it again. "So… what's it supposed to… Yeowtch!"
Unseen by her, small needles suddenly extended into her finger from the inside of the ring, and a combination of electricity and chemicals were injected into her blood stream.
The pain was almost unbearable as Tara brought her hand to herself and fell back onto her bed. She doubled over in pain as strange things began to happen to her. She could feel her body changing, and she also saw a strange reddish-blue light glowing around herself. The light slowly turned completely blue as the red color seemed to be sucked into the ring.
Then just as suddenly as it had started, the pain went away. Breathing hard, Tara tried to stand, but for some reason she felt… constricted. Flexing her self as she stood and straightened out, the clothes Tara had on ripped and shredded, and then fell onto the floor.
"What the heck just happened?" She said to herself and went to the full-length mirror on her closet door. Tara stood there with her jaw dropped at what she saw.
It looked like she had grown at least two inches, and every muscle on her body was now noticeably bigger, and more defined. Any little bit of baby fat she had before was now gone! Her breasts were slightly larger, but firm. Where she had a little pooch to her stomach that was barely noticeable before, she now had 4-pack abs. Her shoulders were slightly broader than before, and her glutes had definitely become even more firm than before.
The odd thing, was that her skin had a very light hue of blue, it didn't stand out, but it was definitely there. Most of her hair was still blond, but there were a few strands that looked as if they had been colored bluish-white. Almost like highlights.
"What has happened to me?" Tara said to herself as she looked over her new body, and lightly traced her newly sculpted, almost goddess-like physique, with her finger tips. She was standing with just her bra and panties on, which were now straining to be held in place from the enlarged proportions of her body.
Quickly she took off the garments as they were way too tight, and she put on a sports bra and a pair of running shorts and then sweatpants over those. They were also a little snug, but not near as bad as what she had on before. "Whew… That's much more comfortable.
"Now what do I do? Will anyone notice?" She grabbed her doorknob to leave the room, and without even realizing it, she crushed the brass knob in her hand! "Holy…!"
She then gingerly reached out and turned the knob, glad that it still worked. Tara then walked back down to her kitchen, and sat down hard on a chair, making it squeak with protest at her new weight.
She looked at the clock on the microwave. "Wow… 8pm already? Let's see… Mom said she and Dad would be back this evening about 10, so I guess I have to get myself something to eat."
Rummaging through the cabinets and refrigerator, Tara was able to get some food together, and without realizing it she ate enough that would have filled Ron Stoppable 5 times over.
After cleaning up after herself Tara decided to go get some sleep as she was now felling pretty tired. She went up to her room and promptly fell asleep as soon as she dropped onto her bed.
…x x x x…
Mr. and Mrs. King arrived at home about 10:15, and they called out for their daughter. When there as no answer, Mrs. King went up to her daughters room, peeked in and saw Tara sound asleep on her bed, lying on her stomach.
As she gently closed her daughter's door, Mrs. King didn't see the flare-up of blue energy that emanated from underneath the door.
…x x x x…
The blue sky above was speckled with light clouds, and the sun was bright, but not hot. It gently warmed Tara's face as she sat under a tree with Ron sitting at her side.
"So… Ron…?" She said looking over towards the blonde boy. "What will Kim say about us?"
"What do you mean, 'about us'? Tara?" He said narrowing his eyes.
"Umm… you… me… here on a… date."
"But Tara…" Ron replied, "It's not us that are on a date. It's Kim and I."
Suddenly Kim Possible stepped around the tree and she started to kiss Ron right in front of Tara. Then after a long make-out session, the two turned and looked right at Tara and said at the same time, "You're such a loser! Ron/I would never date you. I/He would never want to date someone who is so… plain."
Anger flared inside Tara, as she couldn't believe that two of her good friends would speak to her like this! Her hands clenched at her sides while laughter barked out of Kim and Ron. Her eyes narrowed, and suddenly the entire scene in front of her went red, as if a lens was placed over her eyes.
She lunged at the two, taking both of them off guard, immediately grabbed each of them by the neck, and started to squeeze. Kim and Ron started to choke and gasp for air as they feebly tried to break away from her grip, and weakly beat on her arms.
Tara continued to squeeze, and finally after a few minutes, both Kim and Ron's heads dropped to one side, lifeless. She dropped them like sacks of potatoes.
…x x x x…
Tara suddenly woke the next morning, her eyes snapping open. Unknown to her, here eyes had now completely turned an almost sickly red color. All she knew was… anger. Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable had laughed at her, and she would make them pay.
With purpose, and without changing clothes, Tara walked out of her bedroom, and down the steps of her two story home. Her parents were in the kitchen and saw their daughter enter.
"Dear?" Her mother said wide-eyed as she stared at the changes in her daughter "What… what has happened to you?"
Tara just gave a small growl and barked on word. "Food!"
"Now see here young lady," Her Dad said, "You will not talk to your mother that way."
Tara just silently walked over to her dad, took his plate of food, and dumped it into her mouth. She barely chewed the entire plate of three eggs, sausage and hash browns before swallowing. She then walked over to her dumbstruck mother, took the carton of orange juice out of her hand, and downed half of the previously full carton.
She then started towards the door intending to leave, but her father suddenly blocked her path. "Tara…" He started to say.
Tara looked at her father eye-to-eye. She had never been able to do that before as he had always been slightly taller than her. Now things were different. She felt like his… equal. No… Better than equal. "Move." She said
"No. Tara, I don't know what… ooff!" Before he finished what he had to say, Tara slammed her hands into his chest, sending him crashing out the screen door. She stomped past him as he lay there dazed and holding an arm that was obviously broken.
"Tara!" Her mother called out and the teenage girl suddenly whirled around, her eyes flashing red.
"Do not call me Tara anymore!" This now strange girl screamed. "She is gone! For I am now… Tara-ble!"
"Tara Bull? Huh?" Her mother said in confusion.
"No Mother! Get it through your thick skull! I have become terrible! So now I am known as… Tarable!"
To be continued…
(please be sure to read the A/N…)
Yeah… It's what y'all think. I've tried to make sweet little Tara evil. She is going to do some pretty bad things, hence the rating. If it gets too out of hand, I may bump the rating up to the maximum.
This is a story that I will not be updating on a regular basis, as it's going to definitely be a work in progress… So don't be alarmed if I haven't updated it for weeks at a time.
