Kim Possible: Dark Retribution

Disclaimer: Bob and Mark made the KP gang. The characters of Ben and Jen Ariel Ferno, Frederick Aremes Elurt, V, and two others are mine.

WARNING: This is the sequel to my previous KP fic: The Sociopath Episode. This story will make MUCH more sense if you read it first because of character usage and plot, in fact you pretty much have to read it to understand this. This isn't something that says "Gimme Review!" but I'm sure you like your stories to make sense. Also, thanks to everyone who left a helpful review. MUCH appreciated.

I also intend for this story to be a dark (for the usual KP world) and long one, and I may hit the tip of the rating, just a view of things that could happen to the two after high school but before college. Fluff, violence, language, and odd areas of humor included. Although dark, don't expect anything that will give you nightmares or will disturb you often.

Prologue


Unknown Location, USA

Several monitors show another newscast of a successful mission by teen hero Kim Possible and her partner, Ron Stoppable. The news this time around was stopping Duff Killigan from trying to destroy a city in Vegas with a 100-foot golf ball that he drove through the streets.

"No big. He should've picked a place without a canyon nearby. I couldn't have done it if Ron didn't find that bike ramp nearby. Ron! You're not going back into that casino!" Kim told the reporter before chasing Ron.

The signal went dead into static, shortly finding another news report on her and Ron with a crystal clear signal. This time it was about stopping Señor Senior Jr. from opening a teenage nightclub again, but his father Señor Senior Sr. again manipulated the place, using the strobe lights to play with the mind senses of its visitors, forcing most to collapse or become hypnotized. It was clearly an act of revenge on Triple S's account as someone said something bad about him in a magazine. As Junior and his father were shown being escorted into a police car, Kim again was interviewed.

"So not the drama. Ron bought me here blindfolded as some kind of anniversary surprise, and when I heard nothing but strange groans and Ron stopped responding, I knew something was up. I had Wade guide me throughout the place and take out the main controls to the lights. It was like sophomore year all over again. Can I take this blindfold off now?"

Then the channel kept changing, every one showing a news report of Kim saving town or the world. Two months after her high school graduation and she was still at it with full force, a surprise to some of the usual villains who predicted that her relationship with Ron would be her downfall.

It wasn't the only monitor in the room with Kim on every channel. There were at least nine other monitors in the same room doing the same thing, but showing different signals on each one, all changing from Kim newscast to Kim newscast, faster and faster. At least fifty various news reports were shown. Abruptly, all of the monitors went dead. The sound of keyboard typing echoed throughout the pitch-black room, only be to lit up again by all monitors turning on. This time, instead of showing news reports on Kim's successes, all kinds of information regarding all the members of Team Possible were revealed on each screen. Physical traits such as height, weight, hair color, blood type and eye color, profiles of each, including detailed information on their backgrounds were all displayed. If someone knew anything about Kim, Ron, Rufus and Wade, it was shown on these monitors. Likes, dislikes, relationship history, school courses taken and grades for each, shoe size, favorite colors, dark secrets, things such as every cuddle buddy that Kim owned, the day that Ron first started crushing on Kim when they were much younger, the days when Kim started dating each of her ex-boyfriends and her current one, Rufus' birthplace and date, Wade's school records, the person who sold Rufus to Ron, Kim's dental records that indicated she needed braces, the mall where she accidentally went into the boys restroom, the pages of the yearbook she appeared in; everything was shown. It wasn't the information this person wanted to know and did not seem impressed by their findings.

Also included were detailed pictures and photos of each throughout the years. The audio that filled the room still consisted of several newscasts of the team's victories all going on at once.

"Just what makes you indomitable…?" a dull voice echoed nearby the center monitors. Most people wouldn't be able to think with all the noise going on.

Whoever their stalker was, he wasn't afraid to perform his research on his biggest obstacle.

"The more I resist, the more I am drawn to you, Kimberly Anne Possible…"

He typed more on the keyboard single-handedly, bringing up more information on Kim and Ron. On the monitor that was displaying Kim's information, it showed a video of her fighting on a rooftop. The feed showed that several henchmen armed with knifes were in a duel with Kim, and she was able to easily fight them off wielding metal pipes for offense and defense. On the screen exhibiting Ron's information, it had a list of all the countries he went into, but more specifically, which schools he had attended. Passport information, airport security cameras, official and unofficial school records were shown. Among them…

"Yamanuchi Ninja School, Japan. No news there… Twice? Hmm, I stand corrected…"

More typing in the dark green room. The researcher tried to get more information on a specific trip to the Yamanuchi Ninja School in Japan. It was documented that Ron went to the school twice, but he was more interested in the first time he attended the school. He knew of Ron's second trip to the school, but not the first. Something felt awkward once discovering the records that Ron entered as an exchange student for a week. It wasn't usual for an American High School student to be allowed access to the private ninja school in Japan. This was definitely no usual transfer trip between schools. Mystical Monkey Power?

"No, that much information is already known. Show me something… interesting…"

It had taken a few minutes to get what he was looking for. A lot of password access, breaking through firewalls, and looking for the specific data. Bingo, a list of all the students attending the school at a particular time all with photos. Just then, a third figure entered the monitor, soon taking up all ten in the room. It was a young girl with Japanese heritage, the only girl smiling in the photo, wrapping her arm around Ron.

"Last name unknown. First name: Yori. Perfect…"

More single-handed typing continued, and her complete profile was brought up. Any and everything known by anyone was shown about her, mostly requiring high-level security access. Information regarding a student at a Ninja Academy usually had regular level clearance; about 98 percent of those listed requiring Level 20 clearance. However, Yori was the only girl in the listing that required Level 50 clearance. This information regarding Yori covered her background as a younger child. Most of her current information didn't require high security access, such as the time she had spent at the school, from 1995 to 2005.

The hacker became interested in her, having a hunch he just had to prove. After a few minutes of typing and bypassing security, words in small typeface covered the entire screen. In seconds he found the information he was looking for.

"A crush on Stoppable?" Mad cackling quickly surrounded the entire room. "Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant…"

The figure then turned off all the monitors with the press of a key, leaving a dark green light emitting from the back of the machines as the only light in the room. He stood up and stretched, popping all the bones in his body, and then walked his way towards a wall in the same room. The only thing visible on the wall was a keypad with numbers on it, oddly done in a non-traditional random order. Instead of the keys in their usual placement of 123, 456, 789, 0, it was 946, 203, 817, 5.

8…2…5…

After five lasers of different colors went through the room and scanned his body, the wall opened, leading to a dark stairway below.

The stalker made his way towards the lower level as the green light of the computer room lit the way, along with some devices on his wrists and his waist. On the walls were countless newspaper reports of Team Possible's world-saving efforts. Any and all documented information in text was put onto the wall. Kim Possible leads Middleton Mad Dogs to Victory. Team Possible Saves Homeless Children from Flood. Ron Stoppable, sidekick of teen hero, Kim Possible, shown above, was one of many Middleton High School students to graduate in the Class of 2005… These were just a few examples of what was shown. Every other thing that made it to the papers, from when Kim and Ron were in middle school to now, were pasted on the walls of the stairs. The walk was a long one, consisting of well over ten stories. The newspaper clippings would run past the very end.

After ten minutes or so, the lurker reached the bottom floor 50 stories below, which consisted of nothing but the stairs and a door. This one didn't have a keypad on it, just a plain old door with a broken hole taking the doorknob's place. Of course, to open this one would have to put their hand through the hole and push it through. The room appeared completely empty, save for a bed and a small table with nuts, screws, scraps of metal, wires, and small traces of blood on it. The being walked to the wall farthest from the door, removing a brick and unveiling another keypad. Again, this one had randomized numbers, different from the one upstairs. 735, 849, 260, 1.

5…4…6…

The wall next to the bed opened up, revealing what appeared to be a mechanical arm submerged completely in liquid, protected by a glass tube. The arm was fully functional, but it desired a host. It moved around on its own, as if it were yearning for freedom.

"Patience, my friend. The time will come soon enough. We just need a little more information from your… older brother."

Right next to the tube with the arm in it was another monitor, but this time it was a camera located closer to the source than anything else. It had a live video feed of a girl laying on her bed.

"Are you for real? Ron, how did… uh huh… Really? Spankin… Okay, I should be ready in a few. All right… Mmmhmm, love you too, sweetie."

Clearly it was Kim on the phone, ready to go on another date with Ron Stoppable. The figure quickly became disgusted at the sight of Kim anxiously digging through her closet.

"Cherish everything you have right now. You'll see the truth of everything soon enough …"

Just as the video was showing Kim closing the door to her room and ready to take off her shirt to change, the stalker shut the wall door, uninterested.
