(Possible Residence)

It was my third day back and I had already been on a mission. Kimberly and I had to foil one of Drakken's ludicrous plans again. Something about mind controlling shampoo.

I saw the Supreme One, of course. It was weird to see her so unfocused and with no true ambition, only concerned with fighting Kimberly and earning payment. I rather call her Shego because she wasn't worthy of the same respect as the Supreme One. If I only knew what changed her so drastically, I would have a partner, an equal to fight and conqueror with. Just like the first days of the Regime.

But right now, I had to focus on gathering subordinates and resources of my own. Once I had gained a foothold of power, I could worry about bringing Shego to the mix. It would be after I gained at least two or three countries.

Once Kimberly and I had been dropped off at her house, she asked me if I wanted to join her and her family for dinner. I agreed because I couldn't think of a plausible reason to blow her off.

I helped prepare the dinner table with Kimberly and her mother. I noticed Kimberly was watching me like a hawk, to see if I was going to ogle her mother. I decided to humor her when her mother had bent over to pick up some silverware she had dropped on the floor. I received an elbow to the ribs for that, but it was worth it for both irritating Kimberly and the view.

The despicable twins and their father showed minutes after we were done setting the table. I took my usual spot beside Kimberly.

After minutes of prattle about their daily lives, all attention was focused on me.

"Ron, I noticed you were able to fight off Drakken's men today, easily I might add. I was wondering where you picked up those martial art skills?" Kimberly asked me.

You think I had no problem fighting them? I had to resist every instinct to break their bodies with each attack I made.

"I picked them up from you. Between missions and watching you practice, I had a lot of time observe your sixteen styles of kung-fu and get something from each," I answered, "But of course my skills are nowhere near as radical as yours, KP."

You might knew many forms but you were a master of none. A Jack of all trades. You were no match for me in one on one combat. I was the master of the ultimate martial art.

Kim was smiling from the small amount of praise. "The prowess you showed today, was amazing Ron. Picking that up from just observation is almost unheard of, I don't think I could even do that. I always you knew you had potential. Maybe one of these days I can teach you something advanced."

I held in a snort from what she thought was advanced. I just gave her the trademark Ron smile, Ron shine included.

Dinner was cut short due to an explosion coming from the twins' room. Mr. Possible went upstairs to handle the mess, while Mrs. Possible chastised the two boys. Kimberly decided to help her father and gave me a quick hug before she left. I returned the hug quickly, luckily not tensing up.

As I left the house, I felt a small sense of nostalgic blissfulness. I immediately had those feelings drained by remembering how much of a pain this family will be and has been in the future. I walked away from the house with the familiar and comfortable feeling of anger.


(Stoppable Residence)

In the attic, I had just completed making a few surveillance drones. I had a few people I wanted to keep an eye, other than Kimberly of course. Bonnie Rockwaller and Justine Flanners here in Middleton where my two primary subjects at the moment.

The other was in a small town that was a few states north of me. He was one of the three people on this world that could match me in raw power and he had perished before I could recruit him into the Regime.

I really liked the kid and I was going to do whatever I had to do to protect him this time. I already broke my promise to his family once, I won't do it again.

I walked over to the new computer Jack had sent me. I saw that he had already started on Project Tartarus. He had converted one of his underwater lairs into the prison I needed. He already had two hundred fifty prisoners being shipped there. Only about half of them would survive the process and the washouts would be flushed, literally.

I left the attic and headed to my room. I saw Rufus was asleep beside a cheese wheel with a bloated gut. I opened my closet to retrieve a full black body suit with a matching black mask, provided by Jack. It was simple in design and served its purpose.

I checked myself to make sure I had all the equipment I needed before heading out to my latest heist.


(Canada)

After a quick flight to Canada via the hovercraft Jack gifted me, I found myself in the district of Ontario. I landed my transportation near a gated abandoned warehouse facility and made sure cloaking was enabled. A quick jump over the fence and a short run, I had reached my destination, Ontario Space Center. In there was the a piece of a meteorite, called the Azure Stone. It had the capability to power dozens of cities for centuries. But no one but me knew that, yet.

I scaled the building from the back, noticing the strange lack of guards outside and the security cameras stopped moving when I reached the top. Someone else was here, just what I needed. I knew the probability of them going after the same prize as me was high, very high.

I went through the already opened window, which led to the security room. The men there knocked out and all security cameras were disabled. Seeing the computer hard drives with three long burnt slashes through them, I knew the culprit, Shego.

The last person I needed to see and I tried to rack my brain for a mission where Drakken used the Azure Stone. I stopped my useless pondering as I made my way to the center of the facility.

There she was, clad in her green and black jumpsuit. She was stunning as ever, well endowed and her body toned. She just bypassed the Azure Stone's lock box defense, about to grab the small piece of meteorite.

I threw a few knives her way, causing the villain to dive out the way. I bolted over to her position, I sent a knife hand towards her neck. She easily blocked it and sent a glowing fist towards my face.

I sidestepped the punch before performing a sweep kick, knocking her off her feet. She performed a handstand and bounced off the palm of her hands to kick me in the chest. She got first blood.

I was knocked backwards and I could see the growing smirk on her face. I needed to train this body to be faster and stronger.

She quickly followed up with a slash with her claws, targeting my face. I ducked under the attack and punched her in the stomach. She was lifted off the ground a few inches and I heard her gasp for air.

I then grabbed her waist and slammed her into the ground. Shego shot off a fireball when I let go to create distance. I jumped backwards and when I landed, I saw Shego smiling, hands lit.

"I see I don't hold back with you," she said, "I'm kinda excited to fight now."

Lies. She was ecstatic with joy, she didn't have to hold back. She had to with everyone else, including Kimberly, unless the girl had the power suit. The only ones she didn't have to hold back against were her brother and me.

I mustered as much of the mystical monkey powers as I could, knowing I was in for a hard fight. This body was not as attuned to the mystic arts as I wanted, a reminder to train.

Shego pounced like a cheetah across the room, claws aimed at my throat. I grabbed her wrist when she closed the distance. I rolled onto my back with her momentum and kicked her in the stomach.

The kick, fueled by mystical monkey powers, launched her behind me. I dodged the fireball she sent while airborne. I turned around to see her running towards me, one of her claws digging a trench into the ground.

Bits of the ground, ignited with her green glow, flew at breakneck speeds towards me when she slung her arms upward. I hastily reinforced my arms with a barrier as I barely blocked the majority of the assault. A few pieces of shrapnel caught open my body suit and skin near my skin and chest. I felt the warmth of my blood slowly trickle down my body.

I ducked and spun around the flaming fist headed my way. I retaliated with an elbow to her stomach. I continued with an uppercut to her jaw, releasing my power as a shock wave to send her flying into the air.

She somersaulted with the attack before launching another cosmic glow ball of pain at me. I cartwheeled backwards, dodging the fireball. I blocked the incoming flurry of punches and kicks, countering with a powerful sidekick sending her tumbling to the ground.

Shego came to a halt and ignited her fist, smashing through the concrete floor. The floor cracked and shook from the attack, knocking me off balance.

Shego used this time to launch a devastating roundhouse kick. Shego's shin felt like a hammer smacking my face as I flew into a wall.

Shego placed her glowing claw against my throat. "Yield."

I gritted my teeth as I gave up, knowing I couldn't escape. If I had my old body, I would have won. "I yield, you can have the Azure stone. Let me leave."

Shego smirked as she let the glow leave her hand. "Losers don't get to make demands. I think I want to know who gave me such a good fight."

"Why does it matter? I'm not some hero who's going to try to stop you at every corner," I told her, "I had a job to do, just like you."

"It's always good to know your competition in this line of work," she said, as she slowly moved her hand to my head to remove my head gear, "You somewhat familiar to me, like I seen you a lot."

I didn't even notice my voice changer stopped working! It just have been broken after Shego kicked me. Damn Jack and his average equipment. I had to make some top of the line stuff for myself.

I had to get out of this situation, her hands were already pulling off my mask. "What will it take you not to remove my mask?"

She raised an eyebrow at my question. "Why so secretive? I'm not going to rat out your identity. There is honor among thieves. And if you didn't want your identity to be found out, you should have just left when you saw the greatest thief in the world."

She was my teacher for everything, even my mystical monkey powers. So she was world's greatest thief. "I don't like being known, I like being incognito."

"Too bad for you," she said as she quickly yanked up my mask. I was barely able to stop her from pulling up past my nose. I knew I had to do something quick before she broke free from my grip.

She was extremely close now, I could see the rage in her eyes, ignited over the fact I didn't allow her to see my face. Something she had won and I knew she didn't like being denied her prize. The fire was reminiscent of the The Supreme One's eyes, lit with enthusiasm for her world domination. I wanted to feel the the heat of that fire again. I could smell her lavender perfume she always used. Her black lipstick making her plump lips stick out even more against her light green skin. She was just as physically beautiful as ever.

I guess being in my younger hormone filled body allowed me to have a lapse of extreme stupidity. Shego had punched me through the wall after a few seconds of kissing her.

I stood up quickly, even with pain of a few broken ribs, and threw down one of my smoke bombs. I ran off to my hover ship before Shego could catch up with me.

The kiss was totally worth it.


Authors Note: I finally updated...as a rewrite. I was having a serious crisis identity with this story. I finally found what I wanted to do with this one. I should have chapter 4 up in the next few days. Sorry for the wait everyone.
