Disclaimer- I do not own Megamind. I'm just borrowing a couple of my favorite characters. This is the last chapter of this story. It connects to "I need a supervillian". Like the previous chapter, this has also been rewritten. I hope you enjoy!
The pristine white ceilings at which Metro Man stared had long lost his interest. Instead, his eyes were glazed with deep thought, attempting to unravel the enigma he was confronted with; how did he not notice one of his best friends dating the city's resident supervillain? He had always thought the pair flirted a little too exuberantly to be strictly platonic, but he would have never guessed they were in so deep. How on earth could he had been so oblivious?
Looking back at it, he should have suspected something was wrong. Megamind's plans often fell through before he was called, but in the past year, the amount of kidnappings with out him being called had tripled, as well as the total number of attempted schemes. He had just attributed it to the genius was just going through a bit of a block and was having trouble coming up with good ideas.
After much pondering, he remembered that about a year ago was that ill-fated trip to the karaoke bar. Roxanne had chosen "Supervillain" to sing for karaoke. He knew she was drunk, but it infuriated him off anyways. They got into an argument, and being the stubborn fool she is, Roxanne walked out where she was inevitably kidnapped.
He expected a call from Megamind, but didn't get one until the next morning. When that call came Megamind was furious. He was immediately chewed out for upsetting her, and almost allowing her to drive away while drunk, and a whole slew of other things. Feeling slightly ashamed, he said he was on vacation, rather than face the angry blue genius in person.
The next morning, Roxanne was kidnapped, and it seemed like Megamind's scheme failed, because he wasn't called to rescue her. That was the first of the unexplained kidnappings.
The realization hit him over the head like a sack of bricks. Those unexplained kidnappings were dates!
Oh, he was indeed an idiot. His curiosity was killing him though, he wanted to know just how the two got together. With the sheer amount of denial between the two, it was sure to be one interesting story. He flew to the bad boy's lair, hoping that at least one of them was currently there.
Not wanting to walk in and interrupt something, he decided to ring the doorbell. After hearing a startled sound, and a distinctly disappointed sigh, Metro Man heard Megamind reluctantly yell. "Come in, Metro Mahn."
He walked through the holographic wall and found a surprised Roxanne and Megamind snuggling on the couch, watching a movie. "How'd you know it was me?"
She glared up at him, while Megamind scowled. "Who else would ring my doorbell?" He answered incredulously.
It was obvious, even to him, that his presence was unwanted. "I'm sorry for interrupting, but I have a question for you two. I don't even want to know the details of the night after the karaoke bar, but I would like to know how Little Buddy asked you to be his girlfriend, and after that little trick Roxie pulled on me, I think I deserve to know." He said. With a bit of amusement, he noticed both of them were blushing profoundly.
Roxanne, being the braver of the two, said "Well, that Monday afterward the karaoke bar incident, I was predictably kidnapped, and the knock out spray didn't last as long as it should have. While I was waiting, I decided to untie my bonds for entertainment. I had a bunch of metal bangles on my wrists, so it was a bit of a challenge not to make any noise. His plan ended up involving a giant magnet." She snorted in amusement, whilst Megamind smiled smugly."When he turned it on, I was pulled inevitably towards it and knocked him over. We talked about the night before, and I figured out what really happened, because Minion told me one story and my drunken mind came up with another. Afterwards, he plucked up the courage to ask, and the rest is history." she finished proudly. "By the way, when you saw me yesterday, I did that on purpose. It serves you right for spying on me. My personal life is my business."
"I figured out that on my own." He answered somewhat scathingly. Clearing his throat, he turned to Megamind "If you ever break her heart, you won't be in prision, you will be in the hospital, understand?"
"Yes" The blue genius whispered dryly.
"Good" with that he walked out and called over his shoulder "Now don't have too much fun. Bye!"
After he left, he felt a little bad for scaring Megs like that, but it was outweighed by the irritation from being left in the dark, and the amusement he felt. " At least now I won't have to rush down there every time she' s kidnapped." He muttered to himself.
YAY! it's done! I'm going to do my best and put out new stories, but I'm not promising anything. I want to finish "Forbidden" and get a good deal farther in "Just a beard or more." Keep a look out for my next Megamind story, "Illusion", which may be coming out soon. If you want to see a list of my potential stories, go to my profile and vote! Let me know what you think of the revisions in the reviews. Happy holidays! Thanks :)
