-Well this is the first chapter in what I hope will turn into a ok KP story. I didn't even plan to write this. I was just sat listning to some music and the idea just popped into my head, (Don't ask me how they just do). Also People who like Josh Mankey may not want to read this. Please read on and please Enjoy.-
"NOOO DON'T YOU LEAVE ME. NOT YOU ANYONE BUT YOU PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME" came the cries of a desperate girl as people around her seemed to ignore her pleas for help. In her arms was the body of a young man. His golden hair falling across her hand as she fought desperately to keep him with her.
His hand gently touched her hand as finally people around them began to come to their aid. She looked into his soft brown eyes as her own orbs of green began to fill with tears.
"It's all right KP I. . . I" suddenly his already weak voice began to crack as his body shook as slowly he died in her arms. Her cries now tore into the hearts of anyone that heard them as she clutched at the body of her best friend the only man that had stood by her. The only man she trusted. He had been taken from her stabbed in a crowd of hundreds.
Her tears stained the face of the fallen Ron Stoppable as she held him close. She begged with all her heart. She pleaded to any god that existed to bring him back, but it was not to be. Ron Stoppable had been murdered before her very eyes.
But Why. Why would anybody want to hurt a man that had done nothing but good. He'd been the faithful sidekick of the world famous Kim Possible for many years. He along with Kim had saved the world hundreds of times. The world owed him a dept yet some evil person without a hint of emotion had slaughtered him.
Well to find out why we have to look back only three days past. To a time when the pure hearted sidekick changed.
It was just a ordinary day in Middleton. A day just like any other. Ron Stoppable was busy brushing his teeth with his little pet Rufus. Rufus had finished before Ron since he only had two teeth to brush. The naked mole rat then ran the water for his buddy as Ron washed out his mouth. Ron finished washing his mouth out before be began to fence with his little pet using his toothbrush as a sword.
They played around for awhile as Rufus knocked Ron's toothbrush out of Ron's hands as he held them up in surrender.
"Ok you win this one Bud but I will beat you one day." Rufus just squeaked as he folded his paws I victory just as Ron's mother called them down for down for breakfast, why Ron always brushed his teeth before breakfast was beyond even his understanding. Ron bounded down the steps of his house grabbing his red and navy blue Smarty Mart shirt from the banister as he did. He jumped over the last two steps and ran into the dining room where his mother was serving his breakfast of scrambled Eggs on toast.
"O Ronald you got Kim a birthday present yet?" asked his mother as she came over to the table with another bowl of scrambled eggs.
"Yep I've had it for the last two weeks, I've saved up almost all year to get it to"
"Really what is it?" asked his father as he took more eggs from the bowl and put them on his plate.
"Well lets just say it will take Kim for a trip" said Ron as he thought about Kim's presents, waiting for her birthday laying dormant underneath his bedroom mattress. He'd not bought a single thing for himself for almost six months, saving up all his allowance just for Kim's birthday to by her the perfect gift. It was a gift he knew she'd like.
"O Mum I gotta go Kim promised me she'd go over Algebra with me before my big test tomorrow." Ron quickly finished what was left of his scrambled eggs on toast before jumping up from the table running towards the door.
"Ronald did you forget something" called his mother. Ron quickly ran back into the dining room and smiled as he walked over to his mother and put a small kiss upon her cheek before turning to leave for school.
"Ronald Dean Stoppable come back here" called his mother again as Ron turned around. He'd not even gotten out the door this time, he was gonna be late.
"What mum come on I need to meet Kim"
"Ronald" said his father before pointing down towards his sons legs.
Ron looked down and saw that he was still only wherein his blue and white boxer shorts and he quickly covered himself up.
"O right no pants" Ron's mother smiled at her sons clumsiness before handing him a freshly washed pare of beige cargo pants. He quickly donned his pants before running out the door of his house to go meet his best friend in all the world Kim Possible.
Ron ran along the sidewalk Rufus barely clinging to the inside of his pocket as he turned towards Kim's street. Kim was gonna kill him if he was late, Kim hated being late for school.
Ron started to pick up his pace a little more if it was even possible, he could see Kim's house just ahead of him. Ron made his way into Kim's parents driveway where he stopped to catch his breath. Rufus on the other hand was just happy Ron had stopped running. Ron finally caught his breath and adjusted his hair a little before he walked towards the front door of the Possible residence.
Ron knocked on the door gently and waited as Rufus started to come out of his pocket as Ron stroked the head of his little pet. The door was then opened by Mrs Dr Possible the Possible families matriarch and she smiled to her daughters best friend.
"Good morning Mrs Dr P is Kim ready for school"
"Good morning Ron You just missed Kimmie she left about fifteen minutes ago" Ron looked back at Kim's mother confused. Why would Kim leave that early when she knew they had a study date.
"Why'd she leave did she say"
"Not really Ron just said something about meeting Josh" Ron's face changed from confusion to extreme annoyance maybe even hatred.
"Monkey grabbed Kim again." Thought Ron as Rufus started making EWW Mankey noises. Ron gently kicked the back of his heels before saying goodbye to Mrs Possible. Ron heard the door behind him shut as he hung his head low and he began to walk out of the Possible's driveway. That was the forth time this week Kim had just ditched him for that jerk Mankey.
Ron knew that Kim and Josh were dating but that didn't mean Ron had to like it. Ron didn't like Mankey. There was just something about him. Also his name was just one vowel away from Monkey the most evil of all natures creations. Anybody that shared such a close link to the simian spawns of Satan had to be trouble.
Also Josh was know for hanging around school with a few shady characters. Josh himself wasn't known for wrong doings, but some of the people Josh hanged with were trouble with a capital T. Ron just didn't want his best friend getting hurt.
But it seemed that the Monkey had sunk his evil little claws into his best friend, and when ever he called Kim just fluttered to him like a lost butterfly. As Ron walked towards school alone he started to think about the good times when he and Kim were a team. Sure they still saved the world together, but now that Mankey had reeled his ugly hair do into Kim's life it was almost like Kim had no time for him anymore.
There was a time when he and her would go to the movies and hang out. Now she went to the movies with Mankey. Sometimes she would tutor him with hard subjects like Algebra or Latin. Now when ever that jerk called she'd just blow him off like he was nobody. He knew Kim didn't know what she was doing was hurting him but he missed his best friend. He would have to talk with her after school today, let her know that he still wanted to be apart of her life.
Ron's private thinking had brought him all that way to Middleton High. Students were either packing into the school entrance or hanging outside on the steeps. Ron saw a few kids playing by the school sign trying the climb the pole to mess with the notes. He saw a pair of happy teen lovers as they sat underneath the shade of the school tree, reading a few books together. Ron smiled at that sight, he and Kim used to so that sometimes. Then Ron looked towards a band of kids that hung out by the bike racks.
Most of them were as big a football players. They all gathered around the bike racks and just smoked or lashed out at anyone smaller then them. They wore baggy or ripped jeans with dark coloured hooded jumpers that shielded people from seeing all of there faces. Ron watched them just as a small student maybe only in 7th grade came up to the bike racks. He tried to put his bike away when one of those thugs grabbed hold of him and lifted him into the air by his shirt.
"Hay this is are spot shrimp beat it." the thug tossed the small boy across the hard concrete of the sidewalk. The kid must have scraped his hands on the concrete as he wiped them on his shirt. Ron could almost see a spot of blood form on his white shirt where he'd wiped them. Then just as the kid was just starting to get to his feet, another of the bullies picked up the kids bike. He picked it up over his head like a paperweight and threw it at the kid striking the poor boy in the face with the handlebars.
"Get out of here you little freak" shouted one of the grope as another of the bullies kicked out at him. The kid then ran away in fear of the boys with his damaged bicycle. That was Mankey's crew. Josh wasn't with them at the moment but Ron knew if Kim saw him with them she'd never go near him again. Kim hated bullies and so did he. Just then as Ron watched the gang of thugs somebody bumped into him. Ron quickly turned to face who had so rudely barged past him as the kid turned around to face him.
He was about Ron's height, with a two toned hair cut. The top part of his hair was blond the other light brown, he looked like a confused surfer. He glared at Ron as he recognised him as Josh Mankey Kim's boyfriend and leader of the little posse over by the bike racks.
"Hay watch where your going loser" snapped Josh as Ron stood up into his face.
"Me you barged me Monkey" snapped back Ron as he stood in Josh's face staring him straight into his ice colour eyes.
"Mankey the names Mankey and you were in my way"
"So what I'm suppose to move around you A Monkey" Ron snapped again at Josh all the anger from this morning still clear in his voice as Josh started to shrink.
"There a problem here Josh" came a voice behind the blue eyed teen as his posse came and stood by his side.
"No problem Mike just telling this loser where he stands." said Josh as he regained his nerve. With his posses behind him Josh stood further into Ron's face and smiled.
"You better move on out my face before my boys snap you in two" whispered Mankey just loud enough for Ron and his boys to hear as he slapped Ron across the face. It wasn't a painful slap more like a know your place kind of thing.
The largest of the boys then pushed Ron to the ground and into the dirt by the school entrance as they walked past him laughing. Ron watched as that little band of goons walked past him laughing as he laid in the dirt. Ron looked up as Josh looked back at him with a large smile on his face. Ron got up from the dirt and tried to brush the dirt off his cloths. What did Kim see in that thug Mankey. Surely she knew of his reputation why would his best friend even go near a thug like him.
Ron finished brushing the dirt off his cargo pants and walked into school wanting just to get today over with. It was already off to a bad start and he didn't need any more problems. Ron walked towards his locker and smiled at finally seeing a friendly face. His best friend Kim Possible stood just in front of him by her locker just next to he's.
Ron watched her for a while putting her books into her locker, she looked to great today. Her long red hair was left free today, free to just hang by her beautiful face. She wore her usual green crop top and blue cargo pants but even though she still look great.
Ron quickly shook his head as Rufus looked up at him side faced before shaking his head. Ron slowly coughed before walking over to his best friend. Kim greeted him with her usual lovely morning smile as she waived at him.
"Hay Ron… what happened to you, your all dirty." asked Kim as she looked at her best friend. He usual dressed scruffy. Ron was a individual he didn't care what people thought of him, but even he didn't come to school covered in dirt.
"O just some guy in a car, he splashed me on my way to school." replied Ron as Kim looked at him confused.
"But Ron its not raining"
"What am I a weather man KP, how am I suppose to know how it happened" snapped Ron as he walked past her to open his locker. What could he say your beloved boyfriend and his gang of goons pushed me into a pile of dirt. As if she'll believe him if he told her anyway.
"So what happened today? I swung by your place this morning and your we're gone. I thought we had a study date?" asked Ron. He already knew the answer he just wanted to make conversation.
"O Ron I'm sorry it just Josh called. He wanted to know if I wanted to go for breakfast. O he took me to a wonderful place Ron it was great…" Rufus looked up at Ron with a you had to get her started look. Ron just shrugged his shoulders as he rested his head on his locker as Kim carried on about Josh.
"Well at least we're spending time together" thought Ron just as somebody pushed him into his locker. Ron's head banged hard into the metal locker door as he stood in a short daze. He then after regaining his senses turned to see who'd pushed him. Ron was then meet with the back of a boy and once again he saw that same blond and brown hair colour. Josh had done that.
"Hay do you mind I was standing there" snapped Ron once more at this rude prick as he turned his head round to look at him.
"O I'm sorry man I didn't see you" Ron looked back at him with shock in his eyes. Just now Josh had pushed him into dirt and now he was saying sorry. Josh then moved back a little to let Ron take his place back. Ron looked towards Kim almost expecting a defence, but instead her just stared at Josh as he put his arm around her shoulders.
"Hay KP how about you and me grab something to eat after school my treat babe" said Josh as Ron's face changed to a snarl. Did he just call her KP.
"o ha yeah… sure ha anything you want Josh." said Kim all a twitter as Josh lightly tapped her on the chin with his fist.
"I'll come get you after cheer practice later" Josh then winked at Kim before walking away from her before slapping Ron on the back.
"Yeah ha bye" Kim waived goodbye to Josh as he just looked back at her with a smile on his face before disappearing among the rest of the kids.
"O isn't he just dreamy" said Kim as she rested her back on the lockers, her face a deep shade of red. Ron didn't answer he was busy looking back at where Josh had gone. Josh was a two faced bully and Ron now saw why Kim didn't know about his reputation. He was a charmer and he had her wrapped around his little finger.
"Look Kim I"
"O Josh is so talented Ron. He's already started the banner for the Spirit Week dance. Next I hear he's going to design a new logo for the Mad Dawg football team. Isn't he just the greatest"
"Yeah peachy" replied Ron as he just hung his head low. His best friend was crushing on the meanest kid in school and she didn't even know it. Josh must be up to something and what ever it was Ron didn't like it.
"Ron are you ok, you don't look so good." asked Kim as she looked at her best friend with a worried look on her face.
"yeah I'm ok KP (I can't believe he called her that) come on we better get to class." Ron then took his books out of his locker as he and Kim started walking towards their first lesson as Ron struggled with what to do about his friend. If he let her continue seeing Mankey he could see her getting really hurt by that thug. But if he told her about what Josh was really like would she believe him he just didn't know what to do or how to do the right thing now.
-Well what do you think. This is the first chapter in this little tale. I just put it together this morning. It just seemed to pop into my head. Personally I can't stand Josh Mankey and I know exactly what Ron's dealing with as I've been there with my best friend. What so you think Ron should do because I know what he's gonna do. Thanks for reading Chapter one and please Review.-
