New chapter up. For those of you interested, Shego should be showing up in a chapter or two.

Thanks again to Love Robin for editing a rough draft. This is my version after her corrections, so blame all mistakes on me.

Tunnel Rat, Scarlet, Roadblock, Snake Eyes, and Duke are characters from G.I. Joe Renegade. Hopefully the next chapter will be ready by next week, but I'm not promising anything. As always, comments are apprieciated and flames will mostly be ignored.

Disclaimers in chapters 1 and 2


"Well, besides food, what did we get?" demanded Tunnel Rat.

"We found out that Cobra is being more careful about their electronic information," said Scarlet. "I think if we're going to find out anything more on Cobra, we're going to need help. Professional help."

"That Kirby kid?" Roadblock asked. "The last time we checked in with him, he didn't have any new information."

"That's not who I meant," Scarlet said, then took a deep breath. "Roadblock, head north. Stop at the first public library that looks like it has internet computers available, and I'll see about arranging a meet. It'll probably be somewhere near Middleton."

Snake Eyes rapidly gestured, while staring at Scarlet.

"Yes, I'm sure," Scarlet said. "She's the best at what she does, even if I don't like what she does. Right now we need those skills."

The other Joes waited patiently, having grown used to only hearing Scarlet's side of the conversation when she talked with the mute ninja.

"Yes, it'll be awkward for me. But I can't think of a better course of action, can you?"

Snake Eyes finally shrugged, placing his hands down.

"Who is this woman you want to contact?" asked Duke.


"It was a kiss," Megan said, confused, staring into Kim's eyes. She realized she must have done something wrong, but resisted the urge to use her telepathic powers to try to find out why Kim was so upset.

"That wasn't just a kiss!" Kim said. "I saw things... things from your mind! Mars, and growing up, and..."

Megan looked down, blushing. Kim once again noticed that the green girl's cheeks actually turned red when she blushed, probably a side effect of her shape shifting powers. "I'm sorry. My uncle warned me... sometimes, when Martians feels strong emotions, their thoughts leak out... strong enough that even a non-telepath can sense them, if the two people are close enough. I didn't realize I was broadcasting, I'm sorry."

"Why did you kiss me in the first place?" Kim demanded. Her face was flushed, heart racing. The only time she had felt like this before was when dealing with Shego.

"Isn't that what two people do when they like each other?" Megan asked, hesitantly.

"When they're boyfriend and girlfriend, not when they're two girls!" Kim said.

"Should I have changed first?" asked Megan. Her body changed, shoulders broadening and her breasts flattening out. Her hair also shortened and her facial features rearranged themselves, until she was a green and red, slightly effeminate version of Superboy.

"NO!" said Kim, repulsed.

Megan quickly changed back to her normal appearance.

"Are you a guy or a girl?" Kim demanded.

"A girl," said Megan. "It's just... I can look like a boy, if you want."

"I want you to look like you. When I said we could be friends, I meant just friends, not whatever it is you're thinking of."

"But... don't friends kiss?" Megan was trembling, confused and upset. "On television, I've often seen two girls kissing."

"Maybe, but... look, let's get on the ground and we can talk about this more, ok?"

"OK," Megan sat back down in Ship's center seat, reaching out. Her thoughts and feelings were so awhirl it took her a few minutes to calm down enough for her mind to re-link with Ship's. Not surprisingly, they had overshot Colorado but she was able to guide the craft back around.

"We're over Middleton... where do you want me to land?" Megan asked.

Kim looked out the window. "I left my car at the school parking lot, and no one is likely to be there at this hour, especially with summer break starting. How about landing there?"

"OK... just point out where your school is," Megan had Ship lower itself, until Kim was able to make out landmarks.

"There's the Bueno Nacho, that means the school should be that way... yes, there it is."

Neither girl spoke as Ship landed next to Kim's Sloth.

Ship shifted, forming an opening for Kim to step through. Kim stood up, then hesitated. "I guess this is goodbye," Megan said quietly.

"Megan... I did mean it. I want us to be friends, but that kiss...," Kim took a deep breath. "It's too much for me to talk with right now. Meeting Batman, meeting all of you... that's a lot for me to process right now."

Megan nodded, meekly.

"Look... it's late," said Kim. "Can you call your friends, and spend the night at my house? We can talk about all this in the morning."

"Yes!" said Megan, smiling shyly. "I'd like that. It's what girls do, right? Have sleepovers?"

"That's right," said Kim. ~After all...,~ Kim thought to herself. ~I had the entire Team Go over at my house one time, what's one super hero compared to that? ~


Megan, and the rest of the Young Justice, had been given comm-badges. They were similar to the ones used by the Justice League, but set to a different set of frequencies. "Megan calling Red Tornado, come in please."

"Red Tornado here. What is your situation?"

"I've landed safely in Middleton, with Kim Possible. She invited me to spend the night. Is that OK?"

"I have insufficient data regarding protocol with young human females to accurately state whether that is 'OK' or not. However, based on limited data, I would surmise that is a positive turn of events."

"I mean, is it all right if I spend the night with her, instead of coming back to the base."

"I see no reason why it should not be. While you and Superboy are both living at the base, it is not intended as a prison. I would advise you to remain disguised as a human while out in public, however."

"What about Batman?"

"I would not advise using him as a model for an inconspicuous human form while in public. Batman has intentionally developed his appearance to be disconcerting toward other humans."

"No! I mean, is he there?"

"Batman returned approximately twelve point seven minutes ago, with Robin. Their mission was apparently not as successful as he had wished; after verifying that you were taking Miss Possible home, he left to return to Gotham. Robin has remained here, and he and I are attempting to analyze the information he collected from the Cobra shipping facility."

"If any of the others ask, please let them know I'll be staying in Middleton overnight, then. I'll keep the comm_-adge with me."

"Very well. Red Tornado, out."


Megan concentrated, changing. "How does this look?" she asked.

"Um, you look just like me," said Kim. She shook her head. "Wow, now I'm feeling Narcissistic."

"Oh, sorry...," said Megan. "It's easier for me to change if I have someone to copy from." She concentrated, morphing back to her normal features, just keeping Kim's skin tones. "How's that?"

"Well, at least you look like you now, but somehow I like you better green."

"This should be a lot less inconspicuous," said Megan. "I'll probably change back when we're inside; I have to concentrate to keep a changed form."

"This is Middleton," Kim said. "Between the space center and what seems like a new villain every two weeks, people are used to strange."

It was a short drive in the Sloth to her house. Megan's ship remained in the school parking lot, disguised as a red and black copy of the Sloth. The tweebs and her parents were already asleep, so Kim went to the kitchen and wrote a quick note explaining she had a friend over for the night, leaving it on the table for her parents to see in the morning. Her family was used to it. Ron had often spent the night when he and Kim were both younger, and more recently she had Monique over.

Kim then impulsively went over to a cupboard. "It's not a sleepover without junk food," she explained. "Do you like Chocos?" She held up a bag of chocolate cookies with cream filling.

"I like them, and my uncle J'ohn loves them," said Megan. "But I thought you said you were tired."

"I guess the drive here woke me up a bit. And there's no better time then a sleepover to have some girl talk."


Kim changed to a pair of pajamas in the bathroom, while Megan waited in her room. When she came out, she discovered the other had reverted to her green skin and was now...

Kim hastily looked away, but not before learning Martians, at least this one, were hairless from the neck down. "Um, Megan? Why are you nude?"

"This is how I usually sleep," Megan replied. "My clothes, like my Ship, needs to periodically rest. Is something wrong?"

"Humans have this thing about nudity. Here...," Kim went over to her closet, pulling out her other pair of sleep shorts and t-shirt. "You can wear this to sleep in."

"OK," Megan pulled the clothes on. Fortunately she and Kim were relatively close in size, and the clothes were baggy enough to fit both of them. "I guess I still have a lot to learn about humans."

"We can be pretty complicated," admitted Kim. "And I guess it makes sense that a telepathic race of shape shifters wouldn't have a nudity taboo."

"On Mars, clothes were usually only worn for ceremonial or hazardous occasions," Megan explained. "The main reason I had a Suit was to use is a space suit, since when we left Mars I wasn't able to shift to a form that could survive vacuum like Uncle J'ohn could."

"Wait...," Kim said. "You mean the Martian Manhunter runs around... NAKED?"

"Basically," admitted Megan. "At least in the sense that he's not really wearing anything. Is that a problem?"

"Just that it's going to be a lot weirder when I see him," said Kim. She opened the Chocos, taking a few and handing the bag to Megan.

"Are you ready to talk about the kiss now?" Megan asked.

Kim finished the cookie in her hand, then nodded. "I think we should. "

"You said you saw things... from my mind," Megan said, blushing hard. "What... sort of things?"

Kim hesitated, thinking. The images had been very intense but chaotic. "There was an image of flying over Mars... then coming to Earth. Then there were some scenes of you growing up, and first meeting with the other Young Justice members. But... I could also feel the emotions you associated with them. You miss Mars a lot, don't you?"

"Yes... and the rest of my family." Megan said, sadly. "J'ohn and I are the last of our race. When we die, our race will be gone forever."

"I'm sorry. I can't imagine how that must feel," said Kim, softly. She moved closer to Megan, putting her arm around the Martian girl's shoulders.

"J'ohn and I have talked about it," Megan said. "He says not even Superman understands, although he comes closest. The thing is Superman came to Earth as a baby, so he doesn't have any true memories of Krypton. J'ohn and I lived on Mars, before...," she shuddered.

"Shh... shh... it's OK." Kim's hand stroked Megan's back. "Have you talked about it with anyone besides your uncle? With your friends?"

"I... don't have any friends, except the other Young Justice members," admitted Megan.

"Well, I'll be your friend." Kim said.

Megan smiled, shyly, "Um, Kim?"

"Yes, Megan?"

"Can we... kiss again?" Megan blushed, shyly. "I... want to know if I'm going to broadcast memories every time I kiss someone."

Kim hesitated for a moment, then gave in. "All right."

Megan leaned partway toward Kim. Kim took a second to gather up her courage then leaned in, pressing her lips against Megan's.

This time Kim had time to note there was an exotic taste to kissing Megan; not unpleasant, but a faint tinge of strangeness that was alluring rather then frightening. The girl's body was slightly cooler then her own, probably a result of her Martian physiology. There was no rush of memories, but Kim felt a tingling in her mind; as if a mental link was waiting to be establish. Emboldened, not really thinking about her previous objection to two girls kissing, Kim pressed firmer, then moved to sucking on Megan's upper lip. Megan quivered in Kim's arms, tilting her head back and sucking on Kim's lower lip in return.

For an instant, Kim saw the scene in stereo; she was Kim, kissing her new friend Megan, and she was M'gann M'orzz having what was only her second kiss in her life. For just that instant, they were the same person, a single being with two bodies, two memories, two sets of lips and arms and...

Kim broke the kiss, face flushed, breathing hard. This time, however, she did not instinctively push Megan away, but instead remaining holding her in her arms. She noticed that Megan was breathing hard also, her breasts heaving beneath the white shirt.

Kim mentally scrambled for something to say, after that split-second of epiphany. She fell back to a stock joke, not realizing how it might sound to the uninitiated. "So... was it good for you too?"
