Wow! Ok, let's say, that I never imagined I could get my first review in 8 hours! *glowing with pride*

Thank you, dear powgo for your support and also the others. I know it's maybe not so much, but I can't help it - it means a lot for me.

So, next chapter! I don't own any of the characters, Dreamworks does. (I'd make a sequel already)

She wasn't sure, how this happened. Roxanne was standing there, holding the strange weapon tightly, aiming it at the city's Evil Overlord.

"Let him go!" she ordered, "him" being Bernard. She wasn't sure if Megemind will hurt him. He never hurt her, but he was evil after all.

"Or what?" said the alien smugly, before he noticed the weapon in her hands. His eyes widened and shier panic spread across his face.

"Or I am going to find out what this weird looking gun does!" She almost believed her words. Almost. Roxanne was sure she won't shoot him, unless he'll attack her, which probably wasn't going to happen. Besides, it could easilly blow up in her face, like most of Megamind's inventions did.

He held his hands up: "No! Calm down. Just...don't shoot." He looked really shocked. Roxanne couldn't help but wonder, why? Was he afraid for his life? Or his precious invention? Or was the gun broken? Could it kill both of them? Or something worse? She wasn't going to shoot anyway, so it wasn't important, but she was curious.

They were silent for a while and Roxanne realised something. Bernard. He stopped screaming.

"I'll go get him," Megamind suddenly said. "Wait!" she ordered. He froze. "What will happen, if I shoot?" Roxanne demanded. His eyes widened even more, if possible. "I said, what will happen, if I shoot!" she repeated, louder. He hasistated. "Um... It - it'll... I-" She raised an eyebrow at him. "What makes you think I'll tell you?" he put his fists on his almost nonexistent hips.

"You will or I'll shoot." Again, she almost believed her own words. His eyes nervously flicked around and he bit his lover lip. She could see the wheels in his giant head spinning. When he looked her in the eyes, she saw the old smug again. "You won't."

How dare he? Well technically, he was right. She didn't want to, but she could do it. How could he be so sure? Roxanne looked down at the weapon and saw green letters: infuse. So this was some kind of serum? Seeing her hesistate, a giant grin spread across his face. He made a step closer. And another. And another.

She didn't know why she did it. He kidnapped her on a weekly basis and all the time, she trusted him. But now, after Metro man's death, something changed. That's probably why she did it. She thought he was harmless, predictable. But she was wrong. He killed Metro man. As he was getting closer and closer, she felt her finger squeeze the trigger. She didn't want to, but unconsiously, she did. She regreted it the second it happened.

There was a low "squeesh" sound and then the gun fired a golden coloured, bullet-like object. Megamind's jaw dropped and his eyebrows shot up. There was suprise in his expression, but also shock and disbelief. But most of all, hurt. The shot went straight to his chest. It knocked him to the ground, hitting his head against the cold floor.

She kneeled next to him. "I'm sorry," she whispered. He touched his chest and winced. "It's ok. I will be fine." She shaked her head. "No, it's not fine. I shot you. I'm sorry. I didn't want to. How can I help?" Megamind made a face. "It's not your fault. The trigger it too sensitive," he said. "So it's actually your fault?!" she asked in disbelief. "What was in this thing? Are you dying?!" She couldn't hide the panic in her voice. If he was going to die because of her, she'll... The brunette didn't want to think about it.

"It's fine Roxanne. There's nothing to do," he said in a low voice. "It *couch, couch* doesn't even hurt." Roxanne didn't even try to hold back the teers dripping from her eyes. He was dying... because of her! She didn't care how sensitive the trigger was. She shot Megamind and it was her fault. "I'm sorry," she whispered again. Minion. Oh no! Poor Minion, he'll be devastated. "Minion is going to kill me," she sobbed. "Well, that would be only fair, wouldn't it?" he teased. "Where is he?"

Just then, they heard metal on metal sounds, some cursing and a big crash. "Sir?" he called. "Sir! What is going-" he stopped in the doorframe, shock apparent in his big eyes. He had an iron bucket stuck on his left foot. Roxanne tried to look as sorry as possible, to make him understand she didn't mean to do it. But he looked more shocked than worried.

He looked at the empty gun on the floor, then at Roxanne, Megamind, Roxanne, the gun, Megamind and Roxanne again. "Miss Ritchi?"

So, here it is. I guess you all know Megs isn't really dying... Hope you like it. Reviews, please!

Next chapter: Minion acting protective, Roxanne finds out nobody's going to die and Megs falling for the whole destiny thing (again...)
