So the Drama - Diablo
"Somewhere I Belong"
By : Linkin Park
When this began I had nothing to say
And I'd get lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find that
I'm not the only person with these things in mind
(Inside of me)
but all the vacancy the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I've got left to feel
(Nothing to lose)
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own
I want to heal, I want to feel
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
(Erase all the pain till it's gone)
I want to heal, I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real.
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
And I've got nothing to say
I cant believe I didn't fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
looking everywhere only to find that it's
Not the way I had imagined it all in my mind.
(So what am I)
What do I have but negativity
Cause I cant justify the way everyone is looking at me
(Nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own
I want to heal, I want to feel
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
(Erase all the pain till it's gone)
I want to heal, I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
I will never know
Myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel
Anything else until my wounds are healed
I will never be
Anything 'til I break away from me
And I will break away
I'll find myself today
I want to heal, I want to feel
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
(Erase all the pain till it's gone)
I want to heal, I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
I want to heal, I want to feel like
I'm somewhere I belong
I want to heal, I want to feel like
I'm somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong
Chapter 1 : Another day in the life
He looked out at the clouds passing by as the large jet liner he and his best friend were on zoomed towards their destination. Ron Stoppable sat back in his seat and sighed as his friend Kim Possible talked to the pilot and thanked him for bringing them. To many people he was the clumsy, buffoonish side kick of teen hero Kim Possible. Few people ever took the time to ever get to know him and he had very few friends, in fact his other best friend and pet Rufus the naked mole rat was at home at the moment sleeping...Ron hadn't wanted to wake him.
Most people thought Ron had the simple life, that he was nothing but a follower to Kim and would never be anything more than a loser or make anything of himself. Sometimes Ron was thankful for that...few people ever stuck their noses in his buisness, except Kim and that was the way he liked it. It enabled him to keep his secrets and his life out of the public. When he is in the public eye a simple moronic facade would lead people to believe he was just as the rumors stated. No one not even Kim knew that...no one except Rufus, Wade, Felix and the Master Sensei of Yamanochi. It had served him well for years...almost his entire life, it enabled him to gain information that some wouldn't get by playing stupid and no one ever suspected him of being able to take care of himself.
Ron let out another sigh as these thoughts crossed his mind. Sometimes he wished he could let Kim in on who he really was...or was like. Of course his personality hadn't changed to much since his visit to Yamanochi two years earlier but the trip and the knowledge bestowed upon him caused him to grow up much sooner than most would think due to his facade. So he learned to go about his daily life with a buffoonish and carefree facade, only letting his true self out when alone or needed.
The truth was that Ron Stoppable is a prophesized legendary warrior foretold in a ancient scroll held within the walls of Yamanochi school. That prophecy came to pass the day he was zapped with the Mystical Monkey Power. Though Monty Fiske never knew it Ron had taken all of the remaining power that was within the statues and the hidden knowledge within them. Thanks to Master Sensei the knowledge was unlocked and Ron was able to face his destiny...though it was in secret, not even the students of Yamanochi knew that Ron had actually taken the Lotus Blade home with him to act as it's master and guardian...only Master Sensei knew that and that was how it would remain. No one knew of Ron's powers...of his psionics and abilities in chi, Ki and Elementals and mastery of the Martial arts and combat...no that information must be kept secret for as long as he could to protect those around him. Besides he was sure that no one would understand...after all people with super human powers and abilities were very few and far in this world not to mention far fetched.
Kim walked back into the seating area and took a seat. They would be arriving in Japan soon to watch over Mr. Nakasumi's toy parade and act as body guards. Ron gave her one of his goofy smiles, she smiled back and took her seat and worked on some of her homework.
He took this time to do one of his secret guilty pleasures...watching Kim. It was his deepest darkest secret...no one...not even Rufus knew that he, Ron Stoppable was in love with Kim Possible and he hid it well. He had felt that way for a couple of years and the accursed Moodulator incident didn't help matters much last year. But his facade and secrets kept him a good emotional distance from her and to anyone else she was just his friend...nothing more.
He had to admire how she had grown though. She now had a body that could put Shego's to shame...even her breasts were as big if not larger than the green skinned villainess. Kim was strong, athletic, voluptuous and had curves in all the right places...in short she was perfect. But it was her personality that truly attracted him, she was so kind and giving with a hint of stubbornness. She always accepted him for who he was without question and to him that meant more than anything else.
Kim and Ron walked into the Japan airport a short time later with an hour to go until the parade started. Both were clad in their mission clothes as usual. As they passed through to the lobby Kim noticed a sign for something, it had a picture of a man breaking a log in two with his hand.
"There is no way that could be real, just allot of hype to get people into martial arts." Kim said pointing at the sign.
"I don't know KP." Ron said in a serious tone and face. "I've never been attacked by a tree before."
Kim just shook her head and rolled her eyes as they continued walking. As they got into the limo to drive them to Nakasumi's she noticed how overly baggy Ron's clothes were. He always wore clothes that seemed several sizes to large for him but he always said it was for the comfort factor. Kim frowned at that thought. For about two years now Ron had been different...he seemed the same as he always did and didn't act different but he was some how. For the life of her she could never figure it out and it usually didn't bother her but recently it had been. She just shrugged it off...Ron would tell her if anything was different about him...wouldn't he?
Just like Nakasumi feared his toy parade came under attack as Shego's green and black jet buzzed the floats. A group of ten ninjas wielding energy swords jumped onto the main float intent on capturing Nakasumi for Drakken. Kim had taken the queue and leapt out of the paper Nakasumi symbol on the float to protect him.
Ron remained inside and weakly hit at the paper and whined about not being able to get out. "God sometimes I hate this." Ron grumbled in thought. "It's not like I couldn't rip through this easily...but I have to keep up with appearances." The paper ripped and Ron flung himself out in a fake trip landing on his face. "Sometimes I really hate this damn facade...oh well."
Ron got up and Kim had already taken out some of the ninjas. Shego's jet came in for another pass as Kim pulled out her grapple gun to save the suddenly ensnared Nakasumi from Shego's grapple line. All three zoomed out into the distance as the remaining ninja surrounded Ron.
"Well...KP's busy with Shego and not around so..." Ron thought. "Let's get this party started." He said with a grin as he took a fighting stance. With Kim not around and so many people watching her and Shego he could cut loose and not get seen by many people...except for Ms. Kyoko who was watching him from behind.
A black clad fist shot out at Ron's face. Ron dodged to the side and with reflexes no one knew he had grabbed the attacker's wrist. "It will be my honor to kick your ass." Ron shot before ramming his foot into the ninja's gut.
Ron dropped and foot swept his next opponent to the ground to his right and elbowed another ninja in the groin to his left, the ninja let out a whimper and feinted. "Forgot your jock this morning I take it?" Ron chuckled and dodged another strike from a red energy blade.
Ron back flipped onto the upper level of the float and then flipped over his opponents for a better vantage point. He then nailed his closest opponent in the gut with his foot and followed up with a nasty upper cut to the jaw.
As one ninja fell to the ground in pain the remaining ones shot towards their foe. Ron jumped up and nailed one in the face with his knee, then nailed another up side the head with his fist. Landing on the floor of the float he spun around and caught the last one in the chest with a round house kick.
A thundering noise then sounded off behind him as a large….sumo ninja landed in front of him. "I am strong like the mountain!" The large man roared in a deep voice.
"Big as one too." Ron stated.
"I am swift like the wind!" The massive ninja snarled.
"Eww….thanks for the warning." Ron said with a disgusted look.
"I am VEANGEANCE!" The ninja boomed.
"And I am board." Ron grumbled.
Ron dodged quickly as the massive attacker took a swing at him. He caught the sumo ninja's arm, the massive mans eyes widened through his mask before he was flipped over and slammed into the floor of the float. Ron then walk up behind him and grabbed the massive ninja's underwear and gave a sharp pull up, effectively giving him the worst wedgie in history.
"You might want to put some ice on that champ." Ron chuckled.
Unknown to Ron three people had seen the entire thing happen, though Kim had remained blissfully unaware as she tried to save Mr. Nakasumi while talking to Monique about Bonnie and Brick's on and off relationship.
Mr. Nakasumi, Ms. Kyoko and Shego on the other hand had all seen just what the so called buffoon had done.
It was the sight of Ron "the buffoon klutz" Stoppable beating the shit out of her hand trained ninja's that shocked Shego to her very core. Then to see him flip the sumo ninja like he was a rag doll instilled something in her that Ron had never put there before….pure unhindered fear.
In her haste to get the hell out of dodge before she became Stoppable's next target she lost hold of Nakasumi…only his jacket remained in the grappler claw. At this point she didn't care, Ron had only frightened her once and that was when he was Zorpox. She shuddered at the thought of Zorpox as Ron was just now.
Kim soon landed with Mr. Nakasumi and noticed the large sumo ninja out cold and on top of several other ninjas. She took a look at Ron's now goofy expression and assumed that the large one fell on the others. She knew there was no way Ron could have taken them he?
As Kim talked to the news reporters that suddenly swamped her Ron stayed back away from the masses of journalists. Mr. Nakasumi and Ms. Kyoko walked up to him.
"I would like to thank you Stoppable-san." Mr. Nakasumi said. "Your skills are extraordinary."
"I would like to thank you as well, had you not fought those men I could have been hurt or captured by them." Ms. Kyoko stated with a bow.
Ron's facade faded and a serious look crossed his features. "Thank you…but I had hoped no one would of seen the fight."
"I see." Mr. Nakasumi said solemnly. "Fear not Stoppable-san, we shall keep your secrets."
Ron smiled at them and bowed in thanks. Fame was not something he wanted, his place was in the shadows. He's had small bits of fame in the past and he didn't like the person he became during those times. Besides his only real reason for coming on missions was to keep Kim safe and help her when needed….that was what he enjoyed doing and that was how it would stay.
Ron woke early the next morning. He was excited about showing Kim the new ride he had gotten. Ever since the incident with the Naco royalties his parents decided to hold on to them for him until he showed enough maturity to handle the money himself.
That was two years ago and now he had shown them he was mature enough to handle the money wisely. So he took some of it and bought himself a motorcycle and a truck, made several investments and left the rest where it was to gain intrest.
The truck was a 2004 Chevy Avalanche Z-71 sport. The motorcycle is a 2004 Harley Davidson Springer Softail. The truck is black with grey leather interior and all the extras while the Harley is also black but everything else is chromed.
He got out of bed and stretched a bit and then saw his reflection in the mirror. His extra baggy clothes did a great job hiding his small to medium toned and muscular build. To most he looked lanky but that was what he wanted, if you can fool your friends then you can fool your enemies.
Ron had noticed that over the winter his body was changing faster than a normal person would. Master Sensei had explained to him that it would eventually happen as his body matured enough to fully merge with his sleeping power. One of the other changes he noticed was the fact that his hair grew out faster now as well, so he let it grow to his mid back and kept it in a ponytail.
Since it was now warm out Ron decided to ride his Harley until it was to cold to. So after a quick bit of morning exercise Ron took his shower and got some breakfast before heading out to pick Kim up for school. He had gotten his Harley over the weekend and she hadn't seen it yet. He was eager to see her reaction.
As always Kim was up early and ready to start the day. So far this had been her most eventful high school year ever. Missions were coming up frequently, her friendship with Ron was going great…although there seemed to be something more there, Ron was no long the Middleton Mad Dog…he had giving it up in favor of his new hobby of tinkering on vehicles. Much to Kim's surprise he was as good with machines as he was with food. The only thing she found a bit weird with Ron was the fact he let his hair grow out long and now wore it in a simple pony tail, but since he's been that way for several months and no personality change she just brushed it off as him trying something different.
Just as she was finishing her breakfast she heard Ron pull into her driveway. She let out a sigh, she hated his motor scooter but didn't have the heart to refuse his offer for a ride. However as soon as she stepped out of the door to greet Ron she dropped her back pack along with her jaw.
There in her driveway was her goofy best friend for over 14 years whom had always drove around on a beat up scooter. But in the scooters place was a sleek, bad-ass Harley Davidson. She wasn't sure what model it was but she hardly cared at the moment as she stared in awe at the magnificent machine. She also had to admit that Ron looked good on a motorcycle, it fit him better than a scooter did.
"Ron?" Kim asked. "Wh…where did you get that?" She asked pointing to the Harley.
"Morning KP!" Ron greeted. "I got this over the weekend; remember how the rents were holding on to my Naco royalty checks?" Kim nodded.
"Well they decided that I was mature enough to handle the money myself now, so I took some out, invested a chunk and left the rest to gather intrest." Ron explained.
"Ron! I'm so proud of you!" Kim exclaimed with a smile, she was glad to see her best friend finally showing some maturity. "How much is left in the bank?"
Ron looked thoughtful for a second. "About $500.000.000.00 including the $200.000.000.00 that I invested. In a few years if everything goes as planned I'll have enough money invested and saved to keep my family secure for many years to come."
Kim was impressed…Ron had actually thought this through. "Is there anything else I should know about?" She asked teasingly.
"I don't think so KP…." Ron trailed off. "Oh! I got a Chevy Avalanche for winter time driving and long trips. Other than that…nothing else." Ron said with his usual goofy grin.
With that Ron picked up his spare riding helmet and tossed it to his rather stunned friend. "Cmon KP, we're going to be late for school." He said re-mounting his bike.
Kim shook herself out of her daze and put on her helmet. She then took her place behind Ron on the motorcycle. She let out an involuntary squeak as the powerful engine roared to life. She put her arms tightly around Ron for safety and noticed something strange…he felt different…harder than he used too. Brushing it off at the moment she let a smile grace her features as the sped off on the Harley….for once she was going to school in style and Bonnie would be jealous as hell.
