At the Possible residence, Shego landed with Team Possible in her hover pod that she took from Drakken. Shego was the first to get off with the unconscious heroine in her arms. "Ron, get the door opened." Ron heaved a grunt as he knocks on the door and rings the doorbell urgently. A redheaded woman opens the door, with a confused look on her face. "Ron? Where's Kim?" The heroine's mother asked, but before anything else could be said, Shego walked up the door and passed Ann Possible as she set Kim on the couch in the living room.
"Shego? What is going on here? Is my daughter okay?"
"No ma'am, Drakken hit her with a some sort of knockout dart and her heart rate is slow."
"Don't you think that we should go to the hospital?"
"No! We are not taking her to a hospital. Just take care of her here, and have Ron call G.J. if you need to but absolutely no hospitals. Look, I can't stay here any longer but I will be around to make sure she is okay."
Shego then picked up the kimmunicator and tossed it to Ron. "Take care of her while I'm gone," she said. She then walked out the door without another word and left in the hover pod.
Outside the house, a hidden person discreetly jumped down from the tree and took off the small listening device from the window. He then got into a civilian car and drove away.
At G.J. headquarters, Will Du was waiting outside Dr. Director's office when the door hissed open. Will Du walked quietly into the one eyed woman's office.
"What is your report?"
"We have ears and eyes on Shego exiting the Possible's home. At the moment, the best agents from my unit are tailing her, as we speak, to her next location, director."
"Good, is there anything else?"
"Yes ma'am, it seems Drakken has put Kim Possible out of commission for the time being. It also seems Shego is now going to watch over her while she recovers."
"How is Kim Possible out of commission and what exactly do you mean by "'Shego is watching over her"?" The leader of G.J. squinted very slightly; no one could see any movement in her eyes unless they looked very closely.
"Drakken, or should I say Ron, hit her with a knockout dart. As for Shego, her intentions are still unclear to us. Would you like us to bring in Ron Stoppable for questioning?"
"Yes, bring him in and keep a very close on Shego: this might have been one of Drakken's rare elaborate plans. You are dismissed."
Will saluted, "Yes ma'am." and left the room. As he exits he pondered to himself the details he kept to himself. Why did Shego react so negatively about the hospital?
In a quiet bar called the Cove, a girl with red and purple streaked jet black hair with strawberry pink tips is cleaning a shot glass. The door to the bar bursted open. The woman who entered closed the door gently. She then quickly walked over to the bar, passing the occasional drunk and onlooker. Sitting in front of the bar, she looked the bar girl in the eyes. The bar girl spoke first, softly smiling, "Hey Shelia, where have you been? I haven't seen you in such a long time." The green tinted woman grunted, "You know I've been busy, stealing this and that, fighting her…"
"So I guess you're going to want the usual tonight, aren't you, sweets."
The green skinned woman gave the bar girl a long look over and winks, "It seems that sexy black uniform of yours is finally nicely filled in." The girl paused in the middle of making Shelia's drink, "Wait, what is that even supposed to mean?"
Shelia sighed, "I'm saying that you look really good, Raven. You grew nicely since I last saw you. And didn't I tell you to stop calling me Sweets?"
Raven returned with a glass filled with a glowing, gold like liquid. "Sweetheart, if you get to use pet names, so do I. You know that we established that rule for each other a long time ago. Now, why are you really here? You don't come and visit once a blue moon to just get a very special drink for nothing."
The bar girl put down her wiping towel and leaned over the bar; she closely watched the other woman's face for an answer and any hint of one in her face. The green skinned woman took the glass and gulped down half of the golden liquid, letting it burn down her throat and warm her stomach. She basked herself in the warmth that spread through to the rest of her body before she replied in a huff, "In all honesty, my 24th birthday is coming up soon and I think I'm getting too old to be running around fighting Kim Possible and stealing things for an idiot of a mad scientist. And so, I quit."
"Shelia, how could you give that up? Being the great Shego, the master thief, the ex-hero, was all you had to live for after what happened with…" Raven trails off and looked away.
"I know Rae, but I just can't keep doing this. What I'm doing was to forget how I felt about what happened that time." Shego looked at the glass of golden liquid in her hand and chugs the rest in one large gulp. The rest of the cold liquid burned its flame as it went down her throat. "Make another one; I'd like to catch you up to what I've really been doing." Raven gave a soft nod, picked up her wiping towel and started on the next drink, smiling again. While the ex-hero spent her night away drinking, Ron Stoppable slept on the couch in the Possible's home with a puzzled expression on his face.
A/N: Wow it makes me so happy every day to open up and see all the support I have gained. Thank you for the new fans and I hope you guys liked this chapter too. Like I said I'm always up for criticism and suggestions. On an important note, I have a friend who kind of promised me pie if I get up to 10 chapters on this story by the end of this week but that's a bit of a stretch for me to do. I can try though so maybe I will be blazing away with new chapters. Or I don't and continue to update and my regular pace (sorry to say but I will begin to update slower as finals for school begin to threaten me to study) anyways enough of my spewing blabber. Hope you all enjoyed and don't forget to leave a review? I would be ever internally happy THANK YOU :D!
