Life's Simple Pleasures
I do not own Kim Possible
Well, I have this huge clog in my head for my other story "Like an Animal", so's I decided I'd try to unclog it with a different story. You know, get my creative juices flowing. Wish me luck with this one.

Shego exhaled sharply as a fist whizzed past her right ear. She quickly rose her own fists up to block the oncoming flurry of hits and kicks that were meant to fatally injure a grown man. She ignored the sweat that had started dripping into her eyes a few moments ago, knowing that one blow to her head would result in immediate unconsciousness for her. Her eyes were shifting this way and that as she tried to keep an eye on all the flying limbs directed towards her.
A firm kick landed square on her abdomen, and she flew backwards emitting a loud "Oomph!" as her back slammed against the wall. She regained her composure just in time to drop to the ground to avoid a hit to the nose. She watched with wide eyes as the fist retracted, shaking bits of plaster and stone from it.
"Jeez Princess, didn't know you had it in you," she tried to joke, but her voice was unsteady as she rose into her fighting position.
The opponent remained silent as she regained her own fighting stance.
Kim Possible. The girl who can do anything. We've heard it a million and one times, maybe even more. The girl who goes out and saves people whose lives are on the line. Bails them out, if you will. But what happens when the savior turns into the one who needs saving? What happens when the almighty need a shoulder to lean on? What happens when the champion becomes a victim?
What happens when our villain becomes a hero?
Our Shego stood in her fighting position, her chest heaving in deep breathes as she kept a wary eye on Kim. She had given up using her plasma powers awhile ago, since Kim was wearing that nearly indestructible blue and white stealth/super suit. It reflected everything she had thrown at it and gave it back twice as hard. Wade had really outdone himself this time.
The 'Bueno Nacho Incident' had occurred two weeks ago. Shego had broken herself and Drakken out of their jail cell just last week. As soon as they got out, Drakken had ordered his sidekick to gather numerous items for creating some sort of nano-bot idea he had. She had asked him why he wanted to build nano-bots and he simply said, "Because it looks like fun. Plus I've added a little kick to them that's just pure evil!", and then he proceeded with that annoying "evil" laugh of his. As soon as he was done with his little nano-bot project, about a week later, Team Possible had infiltrated their lair as if on cue and engaged them into battle.
So here we are now, with Ron and Dr. D bitch-slapping each other in a corner somewhere, while Kim and Shego fought as if their lives depended on it. Actually, more like Shego's life depended on it. Kim's eyes were glazed over, looking absolutely eerie without its normal vivacious glint behind them. Her lips, normally curved in a playful smile, were set in a thin line that hadn't uttered a word yet. And frankly, it was unnerving Shego to the bone.
"Come on, Kimmie, talk to me! It's no fun taunting you if you don't say something back, dammit!"
Kim raised up her right hand and a blue orb of energy started swirling to life in her palm.
"Oh shit," Shego managed to mutter before diving to the side.
There was a bright flash as the orb erupted, and Shego used it to her advantage by sneaking up behind her Kim as the light distracted her.
Once the flash had subsided, Shego wrapped one arm around Kim's neck and the other around her waist. Kim let out a grunt of surprise as she gripped onto the arm that Shego was choking her with. Her feet were dangling just a few centimeters off of the ground, but that was enough to keep them immobile for awhile.
"Now listen Princess, I don't know what your deal is, but if you're gonna play rough, I can too. So why don't you tell me what crawled up your ass and died or I might just let a wave of plasma wash over that pretty little face of yours," Shego whispered harshly into Kim's ear.
Kim just let the already deep scowl on her face deepen even more, and continued to put up more of a resistance. Shego sighed and tried once more.
"Pri… Kim, come on. Something's eatin' ya, and it's really hurting you. As much as I hate to do this, I'm gonna do it just for you since you're the only person who can give me a good fight. I'm willing to listen, so tell me, what's wrong?"
Shego felt Kim's grip on her forearm relax momentarily, and then tense up again.
"You. You're what's wrong," she said vehemently.
"What?" Shego whispered in near disbelief.
"You are what's wrong!" Kim yelled before digging her teeth into Shego's arm.
She let out a cry as she instinctively dropped Kim to take care of the pain throbbing in her arm, which was a big mistake. Kim used this opening to give Shego a nice jump kick to her face, snapping her head to the side. Blood spewed from her mouth as she stumbled over, placing her hand on one of the many lab tables to steady herself. She raised an arm to block an upcoming uppercut, but it sliced right through her defenses, snapping her teeth together as she staggered backwards into another table.
She looked up just in time to see Kim's heel driving downwards towards her head, and quickly stepped to the side. The lab table dented underneath the force of her blow. Shego didn't hesitate in sending her own kick into Kim's back, causing her to fall forward into the ground, hitting her mouth against the concrete. She quickly recovered and got up, just in time to catch Shego's flaming wrists before they came down on her.
Shego grunted as she took a step forward, forcing Kim to take a step back since she was stronger than the other girl. Slowly, but surely Shego's green flame-engulfed hands came closer to her face as she was forced backwards.
Kim let out an unexpected yelp as something sharp dug into her back, giving Shego enough time to free herself from the young hero's grip and give her a nice right jab in the face. Kim sprawled onto the ground, dazed from the punch. It took her awhile to realize the pressure pushing down in between her shoulder blades. She turned her head to the side to see Shego pressing her foot down onto her, hands on her hips and a scowl on her face.
"Get off of me!" Kim growled.
"Not until you tell me what the hell your problem is. You're completely throwing off my game with that look of yours," Shego replied.
"I already told you! You're my problem! I can't believe you would do something so cruel to me! I was in love with the guy, and you go and take him away from me!" she screamed as she tried to claw her way from underneath Shego's firmly planted foot.
"Somebody needs a hug," Shego muttered to herself. "Hey, what about your current boyfriend, Stoppable? Don't you have him to love on?"
"I-"
Everyone paused as Kim's kimmunicator went off. She sighed before retrieving it from her position on the floor and opening Wade's channel.
"What's the sitch?"
"Kim! You need to ditch Dr. Drakken and get to Nevada, pronto!"
"Why? I've almost captured Shego and Drakken."
She ignored the snicker and the foot as it pressed down harder into her back.
"Because Lady Luck just stole billions worth from several casinos around Las Vegas. Plus, I have all of Drakken's labs on GPS. I can find them later with no problem. You need to hurry though; Lady Luck has a thing for disappearing and then popping up randomly."
"I'm on it," she said quietly before disconnecting the line and tucking her device back into its pouch.
"Yeah, about that, problem is, I'm on you so how're you supposed to get to sin city?" Shego said smugly.
"Ron!"
"Got it!"
Shego's eyes widened as she realized the reply had come from right behind her. How could she not have heard him coming? She quickly turned around, a fist poised to attack, only for her forehead to collide with a metal rod that made a loud 'pang!' echo throughout the laboratory. Ron watched as Shego's eyes slowly rolled into the back of her head, and then winced as she collapsed, out cold.
"You think I hit her a little too hard?" Ron asked as he dropped the rod and helped his girlfriend.
"I don't think you hit her hard enough," Kim mumbled.
"What?"
"Nothing. We have to switch to a different mission. Where's Drakken?"
"Tied up to one of his electro-whatevers," Ron stated proudly. Rufus popped his head out of his pocket and nodded enthusiastically. "He-yup, Drakky tied!"
Kim gave them a small smile before looking down at Shego's unconscious form. She bent down and grabbed the pale woman underneath her arms, intending to drag her to where Drakken was tied up, but was surprised that she couldn't quite lift her as high as she intended. She paused for a minute, her brain calculating how someone so seemingly slim could weigh so much, before calling for Ron's help.
Once Shego was confined next to the hollering Drakken, Ron and Kim headed out to Nevada, leaving the villains to be picked up by either GJ or the police. Most preferably GJ.
"Hey KP, what was with you and Shego back there? You seemed a little… out of it, and you were screaming about something. Everything okay?" Ron asked as they got on the jet.
"Um… yeah Ron, I'm fine," Kim lied.
"You sure? Are you still angry about what happened at Bueno Nacho?"
"No, I'm fine, really. Shego was just taunting me more than usual, and some of it got to me. I'm fine, really," she even topped it off with a small smile.
Ron's eyebrows furrowed slightly in frustration at his girlfriend's stubbornness. She was always somewhat prideful, which in turn made it so she didn't really let any weaknesses show, emotionally and physically. He was afraid that one day she would just overload and have a major breakdown. Wouldn't that be fun?

"…ego… Shego… Shego, wake up…"
"Huh…? Ow…"
Shego slowly sat up from her laying position, cursing Thomas Edison for creating the light bulb. She lifted her hand to her pounding head and looked to her left, to see Drakken sitting there.
"It's about time, you've been out for hours," he said.
"What happened? Where are we? How'd we escape?" she asked, trying to take in her surroundings. They seemed to be in a med room at the moment, and she found herself on a poorly padded med bed. She was gonna have to pay a little visit to Stoppable to thank him for this wonderful blinding pain.
"Luckily, that buffoon and Kim Possible tied us to a malfunctioning knife throwing machine-"
"Hold on, hold on. Um… why do we have a knife throwing machine?"
He shrugged.
"Anyways, they tied me right next to the control panel, so I activated it and it of course chopped the ropes. I managed to get you onto a cart and rolled us down an escape route to one of my hover pads, and here we are in the center of a moutain."
"Oh, we're in that secret lair. You repaired it?"
"Yes, little by little. Now, I need to ask you something very important."
"Shoot."
"Remember those nano-bots I was making? Well, I had put them into a syringe on one of the lab tables, and when I went to retrieve it before we escaped, it was… uh… it was empty-"
"Wait wait wait wait. Are you telling me that my blood might have robots swimming in it?!" Shego growled angrily as she grabbed Drakken by his collar.
"N-now calm down Shego! We have to give an x-ray immediately to make sure you weren't injected!"
"First, tell me what these nano-bots do exactly," she said in a low tone.
"Well… they uh… they swim through your bloodstream for about three weeks to a month before massing in and around your vital organs before they… before they rapidly… multiple…"
Shego's face paled considerably and her grip loosened around Drakken's neck. Rapidly multiplied? But wouldn't that end result in the body literally ripping apart from the inside out? That didn't sound too fun.
"You're… you're kidding me, right? Are you saying I only have like, thirty days to live? Augh!! Why would you make something like that?!!"
"Um… hello, mad scientist here-" he cut off as Shego ignited her plasma.
"Alright! Alright! Before we do anything, we need to make sure whether you are or are not infected. It'd waste a lot of time to find a cure to something you don't have."
"Hold on, you can't just disable them with a remote or something?"
"Well, I never really planned on using it. I was just going to auction it off to Jack Hench or something so he could make use of it."
"What kind of mad scientist are you," Shego whispered with a hint of disbelief before setting Drakken down.
The doc brushed himself off before motioning for Shego to follow him through the doors. She silently obliged as she hopped off the medical bed and followed the cerulean man.
KP KP KP
Shego could've jumped for joy to find out that she didn't, in fact, have any mini robots swimming through her body. Drakken was equally happy. What good was a mercenary if they weren't alive? No good, I tell ya.
"Hey Dr. D, why don't we go out and get a drink to celebrate me not dying? Your treat," Shego said from her spot on the couch as Drakken walked passed her. He was grinning like a maniac and had seemed to not have heard her.
"Dr. D? You alright?"
After a few more seconds of pacing, he finally replied, "Oh, I'm just perfect Shego. We're going to be very rich, very soon."
"And why's that?" she said as she propped herself up to get a better look at the scientist.
"Because the best thing has happened! And it's all because of you Shego!" After saying this, Drakken quickly strode over towards the woman and promptly gave her a hug, only to be promptly pushed away.
"Okay, you are totally weirding me out here. Can you tell me what's going on?"
Dr. Drakken quickly jumped to his feet, his grin never leaving his face as he brushed himself off.
"Remember that bounty for Kim's head on the villain community put on by Jack Hench?"
"Yeah-huh… I still don't see where this is going…"
"Well, since the syringe was empty and you and Possible were the closest to it, and you were found clean, then that means…" Drakken bit on his bottom lip in excitement and anxiety, waiting for Shego to finish his sentence.
The ebony-haired female's eyes widened considerably in realization. She felt her stomach drop and her body tingle with a cold sensation.
"Oh no…-"
"Oh yes!! Kim Possible is infected with my nano-bots! My very own nano-bots! Do you know what that means! It means that-"
"Kim's going to die in thirty days," she whispered.
"Or less! Now listen Shego, all we have to do now is retain her until she perishes and then…"
Drakken's voice was drowned out as Shego got lost in her own thoughts. She sank back down onto the couch, wrapping her arms around in herself. When was she injected? Shego reminisced over their fight, trying to find something out of place, anything at all.
'Let's see, she sucker punched me good a couple times, then came down with a kick which I dodged. I… dammit… I, uh… was about to flame her, but she caught my wrists, but I drove her backwards, then she yelped and I… I… She yelped? She… yelped? Doy! That's when it happened. So that means… that means…'
"It was my fault…"
"What was that Shego? Were you listening to me at all? Well, anyways, I need to log onto the VC and get in touch with-"
"Uh… D-Dr. Drakken, I gotta go," Shego said suddenly as she hopped up off the couch and headed towards her room in this lair.
"Wait, Shego, where are you going?!"
"I'm sorry Dr. D, but I can't work for you anymore. Send my last paycheck to my bank account."
"But Shego-"
"Look, it's been a pleasure working with you, and I will miss you to some degree, but you won't need me anymore," the pale woman said hurriedly as she stuffed a few of her cat-suits, a spare iPod and a few other necessities into a backpack. "You'll have so many other mercenaries and henchmen coming at your feet, you won't even notice me not being there, so I'll just save you the hassle."
Shego zipped her black and green pack shut and hoisted it on her back. She turned to Drakken, who was frowning slightly.
"Do you, um… have the keys to my Suzuki?"
"Yes, hold on a second," he rummaged through his pockets before taking out a set of keys and dangling them in front of Shego.
She took them from him and paused for a second, watching as Drakken twiddled his fingers. She sighed.
"Dammit Doc," she muttered before him into a rough hug. She just as soon released him, and briskly walked past him towards the garage that opened up a good 2 miles away from the mountain itself and onto a nearby highway.
"I'll send ya a Christmas card sometime!" her voice echoed down the hallway.

Shego grabbed a fistful of throttle and revved up her Suzuki Hayabusa GSX1300R (Yes, that's a real bike). It was all black save for the green flames that started from the front and licked the center just above the footrest. Classic.
She had changed her clothes to an all black attire: a black tank-top and jeans, an oversized black jock-style jacket with white lining that had '#1 Babe' stitched on the back, black Timbaland boots, and a black helmet with green flames to go with her bike design.
Shego weaved through the traffic with eyes, occasionally getting honked at. She finally got into Middleton after two hours of straight riding. She slowed to a stop at a stop light, letting go of her handlebars and leaning back in her seat lazily.
A dude in a convertible Audi TT pulled up next to Shego, and did a double take at her body. He smirked before running his hands through his brown locks and whistling to get Shego's attention.
"Hey baby, where have you been all my life?" he said casually.
Shego looked over at the kid and sneered behind her helmet. Was this guy joking?
"Oh, I don't know, maybe hiding from you," she said snidely.
The boy looked taken aback, but quickly regained his composure and tried again.
"Aww, c'mon baby. Tell me, what do you do for a living?"
"I'm a female impersonator," Shego replied monotonously.
The guy paused for a few seconds, and then chuckled.
"You sure are a funny one ba-"
"Call me baby one more time… and I swear you won't be having any in this lifetime."
The dude finally took a hint and sat back in his chair, making sure to avoid eye-contact with the ferocious woman. Shego smirked behind her mask before leaning forward and driving off as the light turned green.
KP KP KP KP KP KP KP
Shego took off her helmet as she sat looking at the front door of the Possible residence. She sighed, and wondered why the hell she was doing this. I mean, Kim was her rival, her enemy. She wasn't supposed to care if the stupid girl perished. She just wasn't supposed to. Even Kim had wanted her to die. She kicked her in a freakin' electrical tower for crying out loud! While it was raining! That screams FATAL to me. Shego silently thanked God for the comet that gave her healing powers. Then again, if it wasn't for the comet she wouldn't be in this mess. She would be home with…
"Home…" she said silently to herself.
What did she miss about home? An abusive father and a mother that ignored her? Screw that. She thanked the Big Guy again for the comet before tucking her helmet under her arm and approaching the front door.
"Well, here goes nothin'," she grumbled before knocking on the door.
She heard some footsteps approach before the door was swung open by two little boys who were holding a bowl of ice-cream in their hands. Shego looked down at them, immediately seeing they were twins which surprised her for a second. Twins always creeped her out. Especially when her own brothers would finish each other's sentences.
"Um… is Kim here?" Shego asked, shifting her helmet to the other arm.
"And who-"
"Exactly-"
"Are you?"
Shego ignored the shiver running down her back and answered their question.
"I'm an acquaintance of your… sister."
"Oh-"
"Hold on-"
"A sec'-"
"Kim there's-"
"Company for you!"
It took all of Shego's willpower to not bolt from the door.
"Hold on!" Kim's voice rang through the house.
A few moments later, footsteps coming at a rapid pace were heard until Kim arrived at the door. Kim froze on seeing who their visitor was. She was holding a bowl of her own ice cream, with a spoon hanging limply in her mouth. Shego looked down at the girl's attire, seeing she was wearing a purple pajama top that exposed her midriff and some loose pajama pants that seemed to barely hang on her hips. All in all, Shego thought she looked absolutely adorable. She almost reached out and tugged at the invisible kitten ears twitching on her head.
Coming back to reality, she watched as Kim slid the spoon out of her mouth, putting in the bowl and handing it to one of her brothers, all the while not taking her eyes off of Shego.
"Jim, Tim, go inside and lock the doors."
"Hold on Princess, I'm not here to- dammit!"
Shego jerked her head back, narrowly missing a fist aimed at her face.
"Kim! Wait! Hear me out! I have-" Shego continued weaving her head to avoid Kim's punches and kicks.
"Kim!"
But the girl wouldn't listen. It was like the girl was a robot with one stupid mission. To eliminate the enemy that didn't have to do with one friggin' thing with the restaurant thing. Damn! She couldn't even remember the name of that shitty operation.
Five minutes later, and Shego was getting tired of this. So finally, she raised up her bike helmet to shield her face, and as predicted, Kim hit it square on.
Kim hissed in pain and fell back on her haunches, holding her throbbing wrist.
"Darn it, Shego…" Kim whimpered.
"Will you listen to me now? Actually wait and listen to what I have to say without it resulting in something physical?"
"And why should I listen to you?" Kim spat.
"Because your life depends on it," Shego said flatly.
Kim looked up at the ebony-haired woman in surprise.
"My… what do you mean?"
"Remember when we were fighting in that lab and you squealed or something?"
"Yeah, something pricked me and then this weird sensation went through me."
"Um… yeah, you were injected with Drakken's nano-bot thingies."
"Nano-bots?"
"Uh… yeah, can we take this inside? Please?"
Kim furrowed her eyebrows before answering, "Okay, this definitely akweird. Can I ask why my arch-enemy is asking to go into my house to tell me about some nano-bots that were created by her boss and were injected into me or may not be life-threatening?"
"It is life-threatening! That's why we need to talk about this! Why are you so freakin' stubborn! God damn!"
"How can I trust you?"
Shego growled as she threw her helmet to the ground, letting it bounce off somewhere in the lawn.
"Kimmie, I haven't laid a finger on you yet," her voice quaked with anger as she clenched her fists. "And I promise I won't unless you attack me first. Deal?"
"Temper, temper," Kim said as she got to her feet. "Fine. You can come in and tell me what's going on, but that's it."
"Fine."
Shego trudged over towards her poor abused helmet and picked it up before following Kim inside the house.
"Since when do you ride a motorcycle?"
"They're fast, sleek, powerful and sexy. All of my redeeming qualities."
"Oh," Kim said with approval.
She rang the doorbell to her house, and Shego raised an eyebrow.
"I- uh, told my brothers to lock the door, remember?"
"Oh yeah," Shego snickered.
"Shut up."
"Shutting up."
The Tweebs finally opened the door and the girls walked inside.
"Can we talk somewhere private? I'm not sure this is something your family wants to walk in on."
Kim's face paled.
"Is it that bad? Please tell me it's not as bad as you make it seem to be."
"Um, how about we chat up in your room or something? I won't touch anything, I swear."
Kim gulped at Shego's obvious attempt to avoid the question, and started up the stairs. Shego followed close behind her, looking at all the pictures of the teen heroine and her family. She came to a halt at one of the pictures with the whole family in it. She studied it hard. All those faces looked so… just so happy with life. The way the Tweebs were grinning widely, the parent's had on sophisticated smirks and Kim had on a small smile, an arm around one of her brothers, looking like the perfect little angel.
"Shego, you okay?"
"Huh? Oh, yeah. I was just… I was just looking at your picture here," the woman replied as she shook her head slightly.
Kim walked up behind her and looked at the picture.
"Oh yeah, I remember that one. I was, like, eight or something. We went to the carnival after that with Ron and we went on a ferris wheel."
"Have fun?"
"Up until I saw Ron's lunch a second time that day."
"Um, eww."
"We don't like to talk about it," Kim dismissed the conversation and continued to walk on.
Shego followed after her, a hand in her pocket, as she continued to look at the pictures on the wall. Once they reached Kim's room, she plopped back onto her bed and motioned for Shego to sit in her computer chair. Shego obliged and took a seat, placing her helmet down on the floor next to her feet.
"So, you wanna here the bad news first or the worst news?"
Kim paled again, and cast her eyes down.
"Bad news, then worst."
"'Kay…" Shego took in a deep breath as she set her hands on her knees and told her what information Drakken had released.
Kim had switched from her sitting position to a fetal one as Shego continued to tell the tale. When Shego was done, Kim was clutching onto her pillow tightly, staring blankly forward.
"Kimmie…? You okay?" Shego asked, truly concerned.
Kim closed her eyes before shifting her olive eyes to meet Shego's forest green ones. They held that gaze for awhile before Kim opened her mouth.
"How do I know you're telling the truth?"
Shego could've screamed and jumped out the window. Instead, she quickly scanned the room.
"What are you looking for?"
"Something to hit my head with," she replied quickly. Something caught her eye, and she forgot her current objective of fighting a blunt object.
"Give me your hand," Shego demanded.
"Why?"
"To prove that I'm not lying. Now give it."
Kim hesitated, but stretched out her hand, which Shego quickly grabbed. Kim watched as Shego extended one of her clawed fingers, and jabbed Kim's index with it.
"What the hell?!" Kim said angrily as she tried to yank her hand back, but Shego wouldn't allow it.
"Hold still you idiot," Shego muttered as she reached over towards the redhead's desk and pulled something flat and white off it before tapping whatever it was against the small bead of blood that had formed on Kim's finger.
Kim watched, slightly irritated, as Shego swiveled around in her computer chair and placed the sample of blood under a microscope.
"Alright, come over here Kimmie," Shego said as she got out of the chair and motioned for the girl to look through the lens.
Kim quietly sat up and walked over towards the empty chair. She sat down and looked through the lens, adjusting it this way and that until she got a clear focus. And then she gasped. There was something swimming in her blood. It looked like a ball with four legs, gently propelling itself. Then, to Kim's horror, a little piece of it broke of, and slowly formed into another four-legged spider.
The girl slowly sat back in her chair and stared up at the ceiling, unsure of how to feel at this point. She rose her hands up to her head and ran them over her face in as reality hit her like a brick wall.
"Pumpkin? Are you okay? You don't look so hot," Shego said as she placed a hand on the girl's shoulder, only for it to be shaken off.
"Kimmie?"
Said girl stood and turned to look at Shego, who took a step back as the gaze in the redhead's eyes looked completely devoid of all things even remotely happy.
"Thanks for the info, you can go now," Kim said quietly.
Shego stood there, at a loss for words.
"But… Kim I… I want to help you-"
"You've helped me enough already. Now please just leave."
"But Kim-"
"Just go!!" Kim shouted, clenching her fists at her side. Shego was stunned to silence, and didn't move. "What part of 'leave' don't you understand?! Get lost!"
Shego's eyebrows furrowed in anger. She brushed past Kim and picked up her helmet.
"Fine. See if I care when your guts explode," Shego said quietly before she opened up Kim's window.
The air between them stilled as those words passed to Kim's ears.
"Scratch that. I do care. But if you die, don't go blamin' me for your death."
"But it is your fault! You're the one that pushed me into the fuckin' needle in the first place," Kim said as a tear ran down one of her cheeks.
"But it's your fault for not doing everything you can to stop this from happening. I offered to help, but you refused. It's all on you know, Princess. And FYI, all the villains known to the villain community will be after you now, trying to keep you caged until you die so they can auction off you head. You're a danger now, Pumpkin. To your friends, your family, even me."
Shego paused to let Kim register her words before continuing.
"I'll be at the Holiday Inn if you change your mind. I don't want you to die, Kimmie. You're a kewl girl and you a hell of an opponent to fight with. It'd be a shame if all that talent went to waste over a stupid thing like your pride. And if you decide in the end not to find me for help, I just wanted to tell you that… that I'm sorry about what happened at Bueno Nacho… And I'm sorry you still hate me. I wish things could've been different between us…"
And she was gone.
