The DJ was playing some poppin' dance music, Kim and Ron were showing off dance moves that had the crowd cheering and Monique was telling the DJ to crank it up when everyone heard the familiar tone of one angry Bonnie. The DJ stopped the music and every one turned to see Bonnie yelling at a couple guys at the back of the room.
"-you think you can just come here and crash my party?" "And who let come in here with beer?" "I want you guys out of here!"
She was like this for several minute before Kim and Ron decided it would be best if they intervened.
"Step back Bonnie we'll handle this," Kim quietly and calmly told the fuming Bonnie. Bonnie reluctantly backed away, realizing that her rants weren't having any affect on the drunken teenagers and hoped Kim and Ron would just kick their asses out of her party for her.
Ron was first to speak. "I hope you fine gentlemen have enjoyed yourselves tonight but I am afraid we are going to have to ask you to leave, just hand us your car keys and we'll call you a cab." He said this calmly hoping to avoid any confrontation between himself, his girlfriend, and the three drunken young men in from of him. Unfortunately that wasn't about to happen. Then one of the guys recognized him, it was even more unfortunate this was a bad thing.
"Hey, I know you," the guy slurred, "you're Stoppable, you took my spot on the team." Suddenly he started to get really angry and this made Ron uneasy, Kim wary, and the crowd gathered around them fearful.
"After you became the new running back, Barkin benched me and I never even got to play in a single game," he said as he began to advance on Ron. This move signaled Kim to defend Ron and try to avoid a fight. "Hey pal, it isn't Ron's fault you were benched, if he was faster than it was Barkin's decision to use Ron instead of you," Kim said as calmly as she could, she was angry at this guy for blaming Ron but it wasn't a good idea to make a man in a state like his angry.
"Hey Tony she's right, it ain't Stoppable's fault." Even the guy's friend, who seemed to be less drunk than 'Tony,' was trying to avoid conflict.
"You shut up Chuck, Stoppable is gonna pay or what he did," said Tony, more agitated than he was a few minutes ago.
That's when she saw it. The cold metal of the gun somehow seemed more menacing than any laser or death ray she had ever encountered. With no time to really think and her instincts kicking in she reacted. The surge of adrenaline pumped through her body as the people in the crowd screamed, and she did what she had to do.

"You know what I hate most about summer, John?" asked the officer driving the police cruiser.
"Hot weather?" answered John, not really interested in the driver's question.
"No, all these reports of teenagers and their parties disturbing the peace," said the driver.
Officer Sid Knowles (the driver) and his partner Officer John Benslow were on their third call of disturbance of the evening when the radio crackles to life.
"Calling all units we have report of three gunshots being heard inside 5678 Flathill Dr. NE……possible injured….. ambulance on their way proceed with caution."
"Hey Sid ain't that the address we were going to?" asked John.
"Yep," Sid quietly replied, "let move."
