Some Author Notes: I made this world based on a number of ideas floating through my head that cobbled themselves together while I waited during a doctor's appointment and my head's been nagging me to write it down and here it is. a bit of warning, there's some language, a tad bit of perverseness and violence...violence, nevertheless, if you're reading, I hope you enjoy
I don't own Kim Possible, or anything to do with it. I do however own my own characters, not like I care if anyone uses them
It was night, late. The streetlights began to flicker on and off, randomly as a familiar red-haired teen chased it. She didn't know what it was, or where it came from, but it did something, something unforgivable. It killed.
"No, it had done more than killed," Kim thought. "It had eaten them, both of them."
It didn't make sense, but it was true. She'd seen the bodies at the morgue, both of them. Just remembering the corpses made her feel like vomiting. It was disturbing, no, scratch that, it was sickening.
When she'd seen the first murder, she'd instantly tried to solve the case, only to have another murder on her hands, then finally she'd tracked down what was doing the killing.
A deafening stomp was heard in her neighborhood, in the backyard of one of her neighbor's homes. She quickly hopped the fence, but only saw the fence in the front bent back and a row of monstrous footprints.
"What am I dealing with here?" Kim's mind raced as she followed the stomps out to the street, where the footsteps stopped under a streetlamp.
Kim stared intently, but didn't see anything. Then the streetlamp flickered, along with the others until everything went black. She tensed in the darkness as a sinister cackle rolled out from nowhere. Suddenly, the streetlamps came back to life, and the one she was staring at had something under it. Something new, large, and dangerous. She'd never seen anything like it and she'd seen a LOT.
Large and big…that about said it. It was at least twelve feet tall, maybe larger. It had a pair of long, well-muscled arms to it that had hands large enough to crush her between them if it chose, with contrasting, tiny legs that seemed to hold its weight and a stubbed tail. It was a brownish-green colored freak with a face like a hawk's that smiled at her…or…she thought it was smiling at her, revealing a row of sharp fangs.
"I found you, I knew I'd find you, I can't believe I found you!" The creature…it was talking…to her! She tried to find the words to respond as it took a step closer to her, drooling. She stood her ground as she replied, "You…were looking for me?"
"Yes, yes, you all along…it took some time…but it was you…" Kim's mind processed what she was given…HOW it was being given…it talked…it TALKED and it was looking for HER. This was getting freaky, downright scary for her. Her eyes noticed its advance on her and she took a few steps back before asking, "Why were you looking for me?" "Why to devour you of course…you have a good, strong spirit, you'll be damn tasty."
Whoa, stop, wait a minute. This is a new one, even for a girl who could do anything…
"You uhm…y-you want to eat me?" "Oh yes. You look surprised. What did you think I wanted? You saw the bodies, I know you did. Their scent's all over you. I woulda eaten you sooner, but I just couldn't FIND you…so I ate a few others to tide me over. You're gonna fill me up for a LONG time…"
It was still advancing on her slowly and she was still backing up, taken back by what it was saying. Kim Possible apparently learned she couldn't do everything, at least she couldn't get eaten, that was NOT on her list of accomplishable tasks. Still, it probably wasn't going to take 'No' for an answer, or if it did, it'd kill someone else.
Kim's mind thought about it and only came to one conclusion, stop it, whatever it was. Without another thought, she ran at it and slammed a powerful kick into its stomach, but it was like hitting rock and she fell back. She quickly rolled to the side and avoided a powerful hand dropping to her and got to her feet
"Yeah, that's it," the thing said to her, "fight me, fight! Get angry and flustered up! Get that blood boiling!" It was enjoying this. Taking its time in a counterattack as Kim's attacks failed every time, hurting her more than it. It was wearing her out like it was no worry. She couldn't win, not against this thing. It was then that the other half of Fight or Flight kicked in, Flight. She knew she had to run away and turned and began to sprint, but stopped cold on its words.
"Running? No good human…I'd find you, or maybe instead of you, I'll snack on your family, I bet they're not as tasty as you, but they'll be fun."
Her family, that was a low blow. She couldn't abandon them for this thing. It had crossed the line. She was going to break this thing. With that, she ran at it as fast as she could, pushing herself to go just a little faster than before and she jumped and executed a drop kick to her opponent.
"Stupid," was all she heard as it grabbed her leg faster than she thought it could move, and yanked her by the leg with enough force that she felt it snap in half and give way. She shouted in pain as the creature flung her into a fence and she screamed again. "That's it, scream. You're gettin' me worked up!"
Kim struggled to her feet and got swatted away with bone crushing force, sliding into the street with the knowledge that she'd lost some ribs. She felt blood begin to trickle down her face and realized that its claws had met her too, meaning her chest was bleeding too.
"Heh, broken and bloody was always my favorite look. I think it's over. Don't feel bad. Most don't even fight. They just scream…come on, scream again, just one more time, I wanna savor this."
This thing was sick and twisted. Still, Kim felt impending doom when she realized she couldn't move. This was it. Apparently Kim Possible COULD get eaten. She closed her eyes to a disappointed sigh from her attacker. "No scream? Ah well…"
It lunged at her, its right hand prepared to grab as Kim prepared to die, but to her surprise, the end didn't come. The fist never came. The pain was still there. And…it was screaming instead.
Kim opened her eyes and gasped. Barely a foot away from her, there was a boy, probably her age, standing in-between her and the creature. A sword was in his hands, that had blocked the creature's attack by embedding itself in-between its fingers. Her six foot tall savior was dressed in black jeans with a white strip running up either side with a black short-sleeved shirt with an illustration of a crescent moon on it in gold, the shirt unbuttoned over a white t-shirt. She made out his black hair and his darkened skin under the streetlamps as they flickered on and off in response to the new arrival.
"Who the hell are you kid," the creature demanded. "Can't you see I'm in the middle of something here?" "She's not going anywhere," the newcomer replied coolly, "how about we give you a bit more of a challenge." "NO!" Kim mustered, getting the boy's attention. "It'll kill you! It's only after me!" "Calm down, girl. This thing's nothing, all I have to do is—"
It took that moment when he wasn't paying attention to slam its fist into him, throwing him through a car parked on the street. "Stupid kid," it muttered as it turned back to Kim. "Now, where were we?" "I was about to kick your ass." "What?" The creature whirled around to see the boy pulling himself free of the car.
"What the hell are you kid? Wait…you aren't…" "Yeah, I am." The creature's attitude changed completely, taking Kim for surprise. It stepped back from the boy, frightened…ACTUALLY frightened. She didn't get it. What was he? What made him so terrifying? "You're from the moon clan? Y-you're a Lunatei!" "That's right."
The creature almost fell over itself as it tried to jump back. The boy, however, standing firm, shoved his sword into the ground and rested his arms on top of it, smiling. He exuded confidence and it seemed to overpower the creature in fear.
"You think I'm scared, demon hunter?" Demon hunter. That's what it called him, is that what he is? "You're doubled over in fear, demon. Fear's written all over you." He called it demon…looked like what was already over Kim's head had reached a few new feet.
So, the demon, as it was now called, finally let loose a chilling cackle that made Kim shiver, reminding her of the pain in her body, but left the hunter unaffected. "I've eaten your kind before…not your clan, but I've tasted your kind, you're gonna taste so damn better than the girl!" "You're fooling yourself if you think you're anything more than my entertainment for the evening."
The boy hefted his sword free of the street and charged fast, almost with blinding speed. Kim blinked as the demon barely got out of the way of a lethal blow, but still ended up cut in the side.
It hopped back twice and turned its back to the boy. "Don't worry, demon," the boy said as he began to walk to the creature, dragging his sword along the ground, making a grinding noise. "You weren't a main course. You're kind never satisfy my hunger. You're just meat on my plate." The hunter stopped several feet from the demon and prepared his sword, placed one foot far in front of the other and lunged, prepared to end it. Suddenly, the situation changed and he stopped.
The demon had jumped back for a hostage, it had jumped back and grabbed Kim. It laughed again before it reached any victory and its voice turned smug. "Thought you were so hot, eh hunter?" He squeezed a little bit on Kim's already banged up body and she screamed in pain again. "Ah, there's that scream I love so much." It looked to the boy and cackled, saying, "What happened? You got quiet! What? Victory not so sure now that I have this. I was gonna eat her, hell, I probably still will," the hunter took a step forward, "Not so fast. Now you're gonna stand there and not move, or I'm going to get rid of this whole damn neighborhood!"
The hunter's eyes, cold and black, thought about the situation slightly before saying, "What makes you think you'll live that long? Kill the girl, nothing holding me back." "Urgh…" the demon hadn't actually thought that far ahead. "I tell ya what," the hunter said, putting the sword back into the street, then holding up two fingers. "We can do this the easy way, or the hard way. Easy way, you let the girl go, you give up, and I grant you a quick and painless death. Hard way," he raised a third finger, "I give you three chances to kill me and I won't even move. After that third, you die, hostage or not, and while your death will still be quick, it certainly won't be painless."
The demon laughed and slammed its fist down hard into the boy's face with such power that the force sent a shockwave that pushed back the car the boy had earlier dented into. But, to the demon's surprise, the boy stood his ground, not a scratch. "Hard way, I take it," the boy said. "That was try one."
The demon was shocked, but that was quickly replaced by anger as it pounded down on the boy's head with a thunderous boom, putting a small crater under the boy, but still, he made no change in his stance, nor any sign that he'd felt anything. "That was two. Better make the last one count."
That was it. It couldn't take anymore. This kid was gonna die, damn if there was a body left to eat. It opened its mouth and let a green steam flow from it, followed by intense flames as the boy was roasted alive on the spot, left in flames that danced over his body. Kim looked away, still trapped in the demon's hand as it said, "Well I think I toasted that body, can't eat that anymore…guess I'll settle for my original prize."
The demon opened its mouth wide and started to hold Kim over it before, "And THAT'S THREE!" was heard. Before the demon could even react, its arm came flying off as something flew from the fire.
The arm flew in the air, letting Kim go and letting her plummet to the ground as she was caught by the boy. "Th-thank you…" she got out before he set her down and hushed her. "You're safe now," he said before he turned back to the demon. "Now you, you're dead." The boy held his sword forward and once again put one foot far in front of the other like he'd planned before and stepped forward, fast, leaving him now behind the demon.
"HAH," it shouted as it turned to him, "Is that all, BOY?" "I wouldn't move like that if I were you. You'd best make peace with yourself first." "What? What are you ta—" just then, the demon's other arm fell from the shoulder and split in half, then each half split into quarters as it shredded. "WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME!" It howled in pain as the rest of its body followed suit with his arm, the legs, then the chest. Finally its head gushed open from the middle and fell into shreds on the ground.
Kim had watched silently on the ground, her lower body too riddled with pain to move, as her hero had hushed her. Silently as he had slaughtered the creature in one bold strike that her mind was still trying to picture—just how many times had he cut it?—but she couldn't stay quiet with the next scene she saw. The boy picked up a lump of the flesh of the demon and began to hungrily devour it!
"What are you DOING?" "Huh? Oh, sorry, excuse me. I…well…ahem, I've had my fill, it was nothing." He turned to the lumps of flesh that were the demon and pointed his sword to them, "BANISH!" With that, the lumps of body turned to a black smoke and vanished. With that, he took the sword and inserted it into his left wrist, the blade disappearing into his flesh and finally vanishing.
"I…you…it…you're a demon hunter? That was a demon! There's such a thing as demons? You ate it! IT WAS GONNA EAT ME! I…you…you put the sword in your ARM!" Kim had a million things to say but the boy wasn't ready for a conversation. "Look," he finally said, "You've had a tough night. I'm sorry you got hurt, I wasn't sure it was after you." He walked to her, staying the length of his sword away, looking into her emerald eyes with his own blackened ones. Kim stared into them and saw a swirl, like they weren't naturally that color, and they slowly became a light blue, making her jump back, surprised. He held his sword to her skull and she freaked.
"NO! You don't! What the heck are you doing?" "Relax." He glowed gold for a split second as energy ran from his sword to her body, and suddenly she felt her strength returning, her wounds mending themselves, and her bones healing. "You…you…healed me?" She got up and looked at him thankfully, at a loss for all that had happened. "Yeah, no big." "Uhm…you want to explain everything?" "Not really, besides, you should sleep now." "Sleep? I can't sleep after that!"
The boy said nothing, merely walked face to face with her, then tapped her head with the hilt of his sword, dropping her to the ground. "Told you," he said before he carried her to her home and deposited on her bed, stealthily and unobserved. He was shock at how the entire neighborhood had slept through it, but he didn't care. He looked at her and climbed out her window. "Goodnight, Kim Possible." And with that, he vanished.
