Chapter 2
"Kim! Kim!"
Green eyes fluttered open as Kim awoke. Her waking eyes saw Ron with his bed pillow hair and frightened eyes. "Are you okay? You were screaming in your sleep. I was scared." Ron pulled Kim close. His and rubbing her back as if to make sure she was in one piece. "I was worried..."
"I'm fine Ron. Just a bad dream. No big." Kim accepted and returned his embrace. She was a little flustered, but glad. She was afraid she would wake up to Ron's face as it was in her dream. She was happy to see she was wrong. Her dream had been so real to her. Even now she felt as if she could still feel the wind rushing by her as she fell.
She quickly drove the thought away. She forgot the cold wind and relished in Ron' warm arms. She was safe. Not that she couldn't protect herself on her own, but she felt a sense of security in his arms. He was her husband and nothing would change that.
Ron pulled away reluctantly from his love. He looked into her eyes and could tell that everything was better. Not all the way better, but who was after having a bad dream? Placing a hand on her cheek he gave he a smile. "Feeling better?"
"Yes. I'm sorry I woke you Ron. It was a long day for us."
"It was not long, but wonderful." Ron Kissed his new wife. "We had waited for so long, and had to postpone many times. I didn't think of this day as a burden, but a joy. And a chance to shove a piece of cake in your mouth." He gave an evil grin.
"That was mean! I couldn't believe you had done that!"
"That didn't stop you from wiping a piece all over my face!" They both laughed at this memory.
It had been a long day for them. Getting up early after saving a small town in the middle of nowhere. They spent most of the morning pondering why Drakken had attacked, but mostly delved into getting ready for the wedding. After lunch the two separated till the ceremony. Ron got into his tux and Kim in her dress. A couple hours and few miner problems later, they met at the front of the aisle. Ask anyone at that church and they would all say that the two never stopped smiling from the moment their eyes met that day.
The reception was just as wonderful if not a little more light hearted. Along with the aforementioned cake mashing there was plenty of dancing, hugging, hand shaking, and crying. Kim got plenty of comments on how beautiful her dress was, and Ron got plenty of rude comments about the honeymoon. They both received many, "I told you so" and, "Finally, it happens!" Even a, "Now this is my daughter..." but that was from Kim's father. It was bound to happen. All in all, it was a wonderful day.
That night was just as wonderful and beautiful. Kim and Ron made love in the night for the first time. It was not the passionate heat of secret lovers, or even lusty movements. It was love making, pure and simple. When the moon had raised to its peak they had fallen asleep close together. Then Kim had dreamed.
"Well, I'm still pretty tired. I think we should both go back to sleep." Ron lay back down and pulled her red head to his bare chest. Kim quickly snuggled up to his warmth and closed her eyes.
"Yeah. I'm sure I'll be good for the rest of the night. No more screaming for me."
"That's good. Wouldn't want to..." Ron cut off his sentence. He gently removed Kim from his chest and got out of the bed. Kim was a little disappointed to remember that they had put their undergarments back on.
"What's the matter?" Kim now looked a worried at her partners sudden agitation. Why did he look nervous?
"You made a good point." Ron whispered. "You were screaming bloody hell. Where's Rufus? He would have woken up from your screams. He's only one room over." He looked around the dark room.
"I'm amazed that you noticed being the buffoon you are."
Ron turned around, but his motion was stopped by a furry fist striking his face. He reeled backwards into a pair of arms that quickly held him in a tight grasp. "KIM!" Ron yelled as he turned his bruised head toward his love.
"She's fine... for now." there was a green glow around her neck as Shego held Kim in place. "I don't suggest you move right now." The glow grew more fierce.
"Quite so." the lights turned on in the room to reveal their assailants. Drakken stood near the light switch and Monkey Fist next to him. Ron found himself in the grasp of Killigan. Ron already knew where Shego was, and wasn't too happy about that.
"Here we found the great Kim Possible, or should I say Kim Stoppable and her husband. Ah newly weds... So easy to fool." Drakken walked toward Ron with a smile that Ron just wanted to pound from his face. "With you two in wedded bliss, I knew it would be a perfect time to attack."
Ron thrashed against Killigan's arms. It didn't work too well. "What do you want?" Ron asked with what some would consider a growl.
"Simple. I wish to be rid of you both. Isn't that right fellas?" Drakken gestured to his compatriots.
"Aye." Killigan said into Ron's ear. I wasn't too pleasant.
"Of course." Monkey Fist moved closer to Ron and gave him a quick punch in the stomach to emphasize his point.
"You'll never get away with this!" Kim yelled at Drakken and tried to remove Shego's hands from her neck. 'No use. her grip has gotten stronger,' Kim thought.
"Ah. Kim. My arch enemy. I am sick of you now and forever. I wish to be rid of you now, and I shall make your husband go after you so that the last thought that goes through your mind before you die is how your death will make him suffer. Shego!"
"Ron. I lov..." Kim was cut off as Shego plunged her claw like fingers into Kim's throat. Kim's eyes went wide and then quickly closed as her body went limp. She would never feel any of her soul mate ever again.
"KIIIIIIIIIIIMMMMMMM!" Ron yelled. Killigan let go of Ron to cover his ears. It did not matter to Ron that he was free now. He didn't even notice. He fell to his knees and his chin hit his chest as he wept.
All around the villains laughed. Shego threw Kim's lifeless body in front of Ron. Her head hit the floor with a thud. Ron was devastated. And if that wasn't enough, Rufus's body was thrown on top of Kim's it landed over where her heart should still beat, his head twisted in a unnatural way.
For a normal man, such as Ron, this was too much for his mind. Many would call the act which was about to happen a bezerker's rage, but not now. This was revenge.
The laughing quieted as they all looked at Ron. "Now what, BOY!" Monkey Fist flicked the back of Ron's head. He heard a quiet whisper come from the torn young man. "What did you say boy? Speak up."
Ron stood up. Monkey Fist went to make him sit down again. He did not take even one step when he stopped moving. He eyes were wide in surprise.
"Well? Stop him!" Drakken yelled at Monkey Fist. Monky Fist fell face first onto the floor. There was a red sword protruding from his back.
"I said," Ron's head was still bowed as he put out his hand, "LOTUS BLADE" the red sword flew to Ron's outstretched hand. The man who looked up at the leftover villains was no longer human, but of rage.
"Monkey Master..." Those were the last, whispered words of the dying Monkey Fist.
"Shoot." These were the final words spoken from any of the villains. They were Drakken's.
Ron moved with the quickness that only mystical magic could grant. He moved toward Drakken and lopped off his head. Drakken's body fell to the floor a few seconds after his head. With a bound, Ron jumped at Killigan. He thrust his red sword, now not just red on it's own, into Killigan's stomach. Ron turned and heaved the sword upwards, cutting the man's upper half in two.
Ron stood only for a moment to gaze at Shego. "Hell shall be the only place for you." The Lotus Blade turned into a throwing knife as Ron threw it Shego's head. She swiped a hand at it. The knife went through her hand and into her forehead with such force Shego fell back. The blade dislodged itself and flew back to Ron's open hand.
Ron walked over to Shego's body. The blade turned back into a sword. Ron thrust it into Shego's chest and twisted. He let go and walked over to his wife.
He kneeled down and brought her head to his chest, careful not to remove it from the body. After a few moments, Ron looked down into her face. He wiped the blood away from her lips. He kissed her lips. His face was now that of utter sadness and remorse, and it ran with tears.
He lost the woman he loved to the vile of the earth. He did not know how to live anymore. Kim's smile came into his mind. He stopped his weeping and rose. He did not want to look at Rufus or he would lose his resolve to do what he had to.
He walked out the door of the bedroom. The Lotus Blade rose from the dead demon and turned into a folded knife a flew into Ron's pocket. Ron walked away from his best friend and his wife. The woman who he loved and cherished. From that moment on, he did not live as Ron Stoppable, but as an empty shell.
The top of the mountain was covered in snow. As was also the temple at the top of it. Many students could be seen readying for their afternoon classes and sparring. It was a normal day at the temple.
"What is wrong with Stoppable-san?" Yuki was standing in front of the master as she looked a figure sitting in the snow as if not noticing the cold.
"Do not go near to him. He his no longer himself. He sits there day in and day out, only speaking to thank us for the food we bring him." The master of the dojo stood next to Yuki with a hand on her shoulder. "He has changed into what the Lotus Blade itself represents."
"What is that, master?"
From over near the lone figure there was a small electronic beeping that many would recognize. The lone man stood and picked up the Kimunicator and ran off down the mountain. His face was blank, but to many they would swear it had sadness all over it.
The master turned away and started to walk. As he walked he answered Yuki's question.
"Justice, my student. Justice."
