Chapter 1 – Day 1 (D-day)
It was one of those days were the hours slowly goes by as you try your hardest not to fall asleep or at least that's what Drakken was thinking. After the invasion, when he was given immunity for all the past crime that he has done he decided to go straight with a clean slate. He found out that being good worked for him, he was getting the attention he wanted and he was actually making money out of his efforts. For the first time after a long while he discovered that his inventions actually did what they were supposed to and people are appreciating what he has done. This success continued on until he met Amy again and from there their partnership blossomed into something beautiful.
"Drewbie!" Amy's voice called out from the intercom. This caused Drakken to snap out of his pondering and look towards where the voice came from.
His eyes scanned the spartan laboratory but did not find the woman he was looking for. Slowly he stood up from his chair in front of the wide screen computers and headed for the room where Amy was working in.
It took only a couple of seconds for him to reach the small room where Amy was working on her latest project. Just like him Amy has been working round the clock, developing a new serum that would help humans easily adapt to their current surrounding and improve their physical capabilities as well.
A soon as he entered the room Amy gave him a big hug.
"Ugh!" Drakken almost lost all the air in his lungs due to the bear hug that Amy gave him. "I miss you too Amy-poo" Drakken told her as he released himself from her.
Amy guided him towards a microscope that she was using earlier to show him the progress of her work. While he was busy looking at the sample she had under the microscope Amy updated him of her progress.
"So far from what I can see it seems that the D virus might soon be ready for human testing." Amy informed him.
"D virus?" Drakken asked. "Aren't viruses bad?" He added.
"How cute. It's not bad. I just needed it to be virus base so that it can be spread quickly without any problem." Amy explained. "Plus it's cheaper to administer since you don't need to pay labour cost and other stuff."
"That's my Amy-poo, always thinking ahead." Drakken praised her as he kissed her on the cheek.
Just as the two were busy with their flirting a shadow slowly moved behind them. She didn't really want to witness such things but she knew she always had a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
"Ehem." Shego coughed causing the two love birds to suddenly jump in surprise.
"Shego! Haven't I told you never to use your stealth while inside the laboratory?" Drakken scolded her while still trying to recover from the shock. Amy didn't comment as she too was still in shock and was still blushing furiously from being caught in their earlier situation.
"Yes Dr. D" She answered while trying to stop laughing at them. Shego tried her best but failed miserably as a giggle escaped her lips. She kept one hand on her mouth while the other held her stomach. It took all the strength she had not to fall on the floor and laugh out loud as she saw him blushing all shades of red.
Drakken was now seriously fumed at her. He took out an envelope from Amy's desk and handed it over to her. She was now the one in shock as she had never seen this reaction from him since she started to work for him.
"Hey, what's this Drew? You're not firing me are you?" She asked with a raised eyebrow and a chuckle but it came out more of a whimper than what she expected.
"That dear Shego is an invitation to a one way trip to a very secluded island." Drakken answered her with an evil grin.
"Ok and what does it got to do with me?" She asked still unsure of what he was trying to get to.
"Well we talked to Señor Senior Sr. and we thought that you deserve some time off." Amy explained. Drakken moved to Amy's side and hugged her with his left arm.
"Well dear Shego, what Amy is trying to say is that you're just lazying around the laboratory all day and we thought that it might do you some good to get some sun once in a while"
Shego finally understood what was going on and a smirk formed on her beautiful face.
"You know if you wanted to get the kid out of the house so mom and dad can play house all you needed to do was ask." She said as she walked over to the door leaving the two doctors blushing furiously with their mouth hanging wide open.
It took her only a couple of minutes to gather everything she needed. She always had a to-go bag from their time of crime and she hasn't really removed it from her 2-seater jet since then. She probably needed the vacation, it's been a while since she saw any action and keeping their slate clean really didn't help at all.
She opened the comm. link and connected it to the laboratory monitor so that she can say her goodbye to the two doctors.
"Well I'll be gone for a few days at the most." She told them as she continued to prep the jet to depart. "Keep safe and don't forget to call me in case something comes up ok?"
"Yes, yes." Drakken answered her while keeping his back at the monitor. "Get going you wouldn't want to miss the sun where you're going. I heard it's good for tanning." He added as he waved her off.
"You don't need to worry about us" Amy assured her. "Besides who would cause problems at this day and age?" She added.
It was true but living in the criminal world for a long time thought her that nothing is what it seemed. Something didn't feel right but she just shrugged it off as probably a case of longing. Drakken was the closest thing she had to family this past years and Amy was a welcome addition to their small "ex-evil" family. It might be that being away from them was causing her senses to go haywire.
After they bid their farewell Shego launched her jet into the air and headed for the destination that was on the envelope that Drakken gave her. Drakken almost burst into tears if not for Amy's comforting words.
"Hush now." Amy comforted him. "She deserves some distraction and you need to get back to work. Those projects don't finish themselves." She told him as she gestured him back to his work station.
After a couple more hours of non-stop work, Drakken and Amy were able to determine that the D-virus was not yet stable enough that they had to bring it back to the drawing board.
"Ugh! Stupid machine!" Drakken kicked the gene sequencer as he got furious from yet another failed attempt at fixing the serum. Immediately after kicking the machine he was jumping in pain as his foot felt the pain from the impact.
While Amy tended to his foot the monitor in the laboratory suddenly came to life. Jack Hench and Señor Senior Sr. appeared side by side on it.
"Greetings doctors." Señor Senior greeted them with a bow.
"What is our progress on your latest project?" Jack Hench asked them directly.
Amy turned to look at the two in the monitor while Drakken sat himself in the swivel chair in front of the monitor.
"Progress has been slow due to the side effects that are showing on the test subjects." Amy explained. "It seems that we need to go back to the drawing board to get the chinks out of the formula"
"I'm sorry to hear about that." Señor Senior told them as he rubbed his chin thinking about their current situation.
"What kind of side effects are we talking about?" Jack Hench asked Amy while trying to read the report that was sent to him earlier.
"It's a case to case basis. Some of the subject shows aggression, mutation and in most cases the virus terminates the live cells and then reanimates with the help of the D-virus" Drakken explained after regaining his composure.
Both Señor Senior Sr. and Jack Hench looked at him in disbelief of the information that he shared with them. Señor Senior Sr. could not believe that the wonder drug they were trying to make could post such a threatening side effect while Jack Hench could only think about the possible uses of this virus.
"Keep me posted." Jack Hench ordered them as he quickly switched off his monitor.
Señor Senior Sr. on the other hand stayed online so that he could catch up with the two doctors. He asked about their well being and made sure that they were getting everything that they needed.
"Oh don't worry about us were not kids anymore." Drakken shrugged off his inquiries but was touched with his concern not the less.
"Thank you for your support Señor Senior Sr. without your help we couldn't have made it this far." Amy thanked their gracious donor.
"Think nothing of it. It's about time I put that money into good use especially now that I have grown tired of villainy and junior has decided to settle down." Señior Senior Sr. explained. "By the way Shego has just arrived earlier today and she is now lounging at the beach."
"Good for her." Drakken muttered. "She needs something to keep her preoccupied."
"Well it seems that the plan is working but there are still moments when I can see loneliness in her eyes." Señor Senior Sr. told them. "Well I shall take my leave as well and probably try to keep the young lady company." With that the screen went completely blank.
Drakken and Amy were about to get back to work when one of their lab assistant suddenly came running towards their direction. The biohazard alarm rang throughout the laboratory echoing from its four corners. Drakken was about to run towards the direction of the commotion when the assistant crashed into him.
"Good Luck" The smiling assistant immediately stood up and ran towards the exit leaving him on the floor.
"Drewbie?" Amy checked on him when he didn't immediately stand up. She saw him there just motionless. Panic struck her as she quickly moved to his side. Drakken laid there on the floor bleeding from his side. A puncture wound evident from the crash that happened when the assistant bumped into him.
"Drewbie we need to get you treated." Amy told him as she started to carry him towards the direction of her laboratory. Before she could get a few steps in she saw from her place the containment chamber opening and the test subjects escaping one by one.
"No no no!" Amy's shout could be heard all around the laboratory along with the shrieks and screams of both subjects and lab personnel.
