Kim Possible: Defender

All characters are property of their respective owners. This is partially a crossover, but I won't reveal just yet to see if anyone can guess. First one to guess and leave it in the review gets a: WOW, YOU'RE A SCI-FI GEEK! Award.

Ron, Kim's Parents, and the Tweebs sat around the table. Ron looking exhausted, the others not looking much better.

"Where is he hiding her?" Ron muttered. Since Kim had gone on a solo mission nearly two weeks ago, there had been no sign of her-and no sign of Dr. Drakken, the individual she'd been sent to stop.

He hadn't even ranted about capturing her, and Ron, GJ and Team Go had raided nearly every one of his lairs...to no avail.

"You'll find her, Ronald." James Possible said quietly. "Drew isn't the sort to-" He stopped, looking over at the Twins, and then looked over at Anne.

Isn't the sort to Murder Kim. James continued silently. On the other hand, if she had fallen wrong and broke her neck, he also wouldn't be the sort to come forth, and the fear that Kim had died, accidentally or at his hands, was looming large. That would explain why Drew was hiding...

Then:

Lowerton.

I've been stupid. Kim's first thought. She'd entered Drakken's lair, been captured, and he'd dosed her with something. The next thing she knew was that she was managing to get out, escaping his guards...and then breaking into the nearest supermarket, the only thought on her mind quelling the raging hunger, ripping open frozen dinners, ignoring the pain as her teeth broke on the frozen patties...

And then nothing.

Well I'm alive. Kim thought, her mind moving faster than it ever had before. Drakken had obviously dosed her with some form of transformation virus or infusion- and hadn't expected it to have such a fast effect. She should be dead with a ruptured stomach, but in fact she felt fine... which indicated that he'd possibly misjudged how long she'd be incapacitated in addition to how long it took the effect to kick in.

Which wasn't surprising, Drakken tended to not expect many things from his work. Kim frowned, thinking about all of his plots.

Why didn't he leave the Diablo's self powered? Or at least have back up transmitters? You could put in a limited neural net AI into the Diablos so that they wouldn't have even needed a transmitter which would allow you to- Thinking, Kim brought up her hand, and then stopped as she saw it.

Transform Virus. Definitely a Transform virus.

Her hand looked like a leathery mummified claw, the joints the size of walnuts. Black retractile claws tipped it and on the ground...

Yah. Her teeth, lying on the ground like a scatter of oddly shaped pearls. No wonder her face felt odd. Kim got up, feeling lighter and stronger then she ever had before, and walked across the room, littered with torn open packages.

Her shirt had been torn open, which didn't seem to be a problem as she'd lost her secondary sex characteristics to the same change that left her skin looking like leather armor. Looking into the freezer metal, Kim looked at her...face.

Her Expressive green eyes remained, now deep set into her face, but her brain case was huge, distended made out the same leathery skin as the rest of her. Her mouth had changed, with a hard, chiten beak replacing her lips and teeth. Her other joints were like her finger joints, looking like someone who was suffering from terminal arthritis, knees, and elbows the size of grapefruits. She should be a cripple.

Except I'm not. These are providing better leverage- I'd bet I'm at least 5 times as strong as a normal human... The hell? Drakken couldn't come up with this..

Kim paused and thought. She should be more upset. Why-oh, of course the loss of her sex characteristics probably involved massive changes to her blood chemistry to say nothing of what the changes to her brain involved.

Well. Time to find out what the hell happened.

TBC.
