The idea to post these cookies over here came from SHADO Commander's "An OmKimbus of Odd Possibilities". If you haven't read it, go now. Seriously. He's in my favs, he's an awesome author, so go. NOW!
Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN KIM POSSIBLE! You should all know this by now... also don't own Gundam Wing which, once more, played a role in inspiring my writing. Hey, I might not be diverse in my addictions, but damnit, I'm dedicated!
*The following was a response to a challenge made by NoDrog called "And It Worked!" which posed a situation in which Kim somehow ends up in the future where someone has taken over the world. The peculiar twist to this challenge was that the person couldn't be an obvious choice.
Supreme One
Kim and Ron stared with dual expressions of complete and utter shock. There was no way to disbelieve all they had seen, felt, eaten and heard. The world, the universe for that matter, was finally at peace, all thanks to the efforts of one individual, the Emperor. After hopping a space shuttle once their tour of Earth was over, the teens found themselves staring at the sprawling expanse of a space colony, the structure itself orbiting the Earth with dozens of similar structures while inside it had the appearance of any metropolitan city from their time. This particular model took after Hong Kong, if they recalled what their hand held tour guide said during the brief flight.
"KP?" Ron blinked, trying to assimilate all the information being crammed into his head in such a short amount of time.
"Uh huh?" Kim, equally flabergasted, was running the details through her mind and trying to make the entire situation make sense. They had already seen how well the Earth was recovering thanks to miraculous advances in science: the ozone layer replenished, several endangered species now freely roaming in adequate numbers in the wild, energy was cleaner now, there were less hazards to the environment, and natural resources were monintored carefully to prevent abuse and waste. Not only that, but radical approaches to health care left the human population eating healthier, living longer, while also reigning in population with the space colonies acting as living environments for the excess population. And yet, no one lived in poverty; the term 'poor' was now equivilent to the middle class of Kim and Ron's time but maintained the same living conditions. No one couldn't afford schooling or food or housing; the space colonies provided surplus jobs for every classification of worker, from scientists to botonists to cargo handlers to actuaries, every job was needed. Every person could easily attain those jobs too. It was like someone hit the reset button on human animosity and discrimination.
"Is this...?" Ron looked up, to where the other half of the city was, the entire populated area revolving around a central axis that acted as a gravitational stabilizer for the inhabitants of the colony. Standing on the sidewalk as they were, Kim was more interested in the police car hovering past, the officers within vigilantly scouting for any sign of malcontent. Of course, there was still crime, still vagrants bent on bucking the system, but with barely a one percent crime rate universewide, it was still impressive.
"Real? I think it is," Kim mumbled, watching a television screen mounted on a nearby building broadcast the newest music to hit the airwaves- or whatever this brilliant future used for transmitting their information- as something akin to the pop music of her time. It sounded suspiciously like the 'Oh Boyz' but she wasn't sure and had to turn her attention back to the little creature watching them with a slightly amused expression. "And you're telling us all this depends on-?"
"Precisely," said their tour guide, blinking up at the teens from Ron's hand. "This is all dependant on you, Ron Stoppable."
"Wait, wait, wait," Ron gesticulated wildly with his free hand. "You-" he pointed at those beady black eyes watching him closely "-are telling me-" he hiked his thumb at himself "-that all of this-" a grand sweeping gesture to include the entire colony and the Earth beyond it "-is only possible if I-"
"Find a mate, yes!" For lack of the reach to do so, the tiny creature in his hand grabbed the sleeve of Ron's shirt, as if trying to emphasize his point. "If you fail to find a mate for my father, Rufus, I will neverbe born!"
"The key to world peace and prosperity is being ruled by a naked mole rat." Kim deadpanned, still gazing around the colony.
Ron nodded, dumbly. "It all seems so obvious now!"
-End Scene-
Voila, Utopia by Mole Rat. It made me smile. Hope you enjoyed it!
