"Kim Possible: So the Drama Movie (With Joy!)"
When Joy decides to leave Drakken and Shego when she's needed the most, Joy learns the side she's really drawn to, and in the end, becomes once again the Joy Shock from her past…
Alright…I am very loyal to Dr. Drakken but I have no feelings for him! I'll go to the ends of the earth to serve him and I'd give up my life…would I? Ooh!
"Hey, Joy, snap out of it, will ya? You're making me anxious."
I looked up. Shego was speaking to me.
"We're just following through with phase two of Dr. D's plan. We got what we needed the first time…we didn't even need Nakasumi anyway, just his stupid drawing, apparently…"
I liked Shego's brother Hego, didn't I? That's different! I can tell the difference between loyalty and love can't I?
"JOY!"
I looked up again.
"Are you even listening to me?"
I nod my head, to reassure her.
"We won't fail. All we're doing is getting information. So chill out!"
I sighed. If only she knew that's not what I was anxious about.
We were in the hover car, heading to the Bermuda Triangle. It was a type of club—not the heaving dancing, loud music kind, more like the sophisticated fancy place for rich people….rich, malevolent people. Shego has been flying the car for several hours now, so we should be approaching the place soon. And I hoped we did…so I can distract myself from all this 'love' nonsense. There most certainly is a difference between love and loyalty! I just don't know if that is true for my state of affairs…
Within the next hour we reached our destination—it was a very tall building on an island. A huge blinking sign said 'The Bermuda Triangle' with the view of a sinking ship.
Because it was such a fancy place, we all thought it required to wear fancy attire—Dr. D wore a suit, and Shego and I wore dresses. Shego's dress was to the knees with a diagonal cut, and it was green and black patterned, very much like her jumpsuit. She wore tall black boots and gloves. My dress was long, to the ankles, and it was a nice gold color. I wore strappy gold heels.
I couldn't help but think how nice we all looked, especially Dr. D…
"I am here to see your boss!" he said to the front guard, as we approached the front doors.
The guard hesitated.
"Shego…..tip the man." Dr. D said. He thought that's what the guard wanted. Instead, the guard took a bowtie, and stretched it around Dr. D's neck. I smiled. Perfection!
We entered. The place was beautiful. I listened to a woman singing, sitting on a grand piano in the middle of the room. The song was slow and elegant. The singer had a black bob haircut, and wore a long, graceful dark blue dress.
"I'm searchin' for someone...I know I can trust, with all my love..." she sang.
Then, we got down to business. The three of us walked down the steps to the several accumulations of tables and chairs, surrounding the stage. Dr. D was in the middle; Shego was to his right and me to his left.
"All right...I'm off to grill this common criminal. What's him name again?" he asked.
"Big Daddy Brotherson. But you should know..." Shego began.
"Please...I am a super genius!" Dr. D interrupted. "I think I can handle Big Daddy!"
Drakken walked off to a set of stairs in the back, while the two of us, Shego and I, took a table near the far right of the room. A waiter approached us as we sat down. Shego smiled flirtatiously to him, and asked for water. I asked for one too.
We waited for Drakken to come back with the information, and we got our waters. 'Wow, nice service!' I thought. I guess that's what you get when you go to such a nice place like this. Also, Shego had a smug look on her face. I wonder what she was thinking. Maybe she was expecting Kim to come and stop them any minute now? Or…
I jumped out of my seat, grabbing my water, as Dr. Drakken fell from the second floor onto our table! Shego just stayed in her seat, took a sip of water, and said,
"Didn't…have…the password?"
Ooohh, so that's why she was so smug!
Dr. D slid off the table as it tilted backwards. He got right back up, annoyed.
"You might have mentioned the password!" he accused Shego.
Shego smirked.
"Thought a genius like you'd figure it out."
"Shego, I am not a particularly patient man!" he yelled, getting even more annoyed.
"Okay, okay wet blanket!" I tried to hold my laughter. Wet blanket? That was a funny name to call him!
"The password is..." Shego whispered something into Drakken's ear that I didn't hear. As soon as he knew the password, now, he ran back off upstairs. Shego shook her head as she watched him off.
How come I didn't know the password? I guess that's why Shego was so good to have around; she knew stuff Drakken or I wouldn't even know in a million ga-gillion years!
I sat back down. Shego took another sip of her water.
"So who IS Big Daddy Brotherson? And what kind of information does Dr. D need?"
Shego put her glass back down on the table. "Big Daddy Brotherson is the head of a Mafia-kind of business…very dark, sneaky organization. They run big she-bangs like this place. And he knows a big deal of info, illegal and sometimes top-secret. As for the information that Drakken needs, I think he mentioned it had to do with some kind of robotic technology."
"Oh…" I said.
"I don't know what he thinks he's doing, but he tends to be so confident about his plan…but it's so random, I—"
Shego stopped. She was looking at me. I stopped.
"Joy…what is that?" she asked.
I looked down at my water. I was dropping some electrical tablets in it. They began to dissolve invisibly into the clear liquid.
"Electrical tablets." I said.
"Say what?"
"Electrical tablets. I'm not wearing my jumpsuit, which is a base for my power…it assists me; helps me charge, absorb energy, release it. And since I'm not wearing it now, my power is then weakened so I'm taking a few of these tablets which will help me better use my power without it…"
Shego was just giving me a look…like….she thought I was some kind of foreign alien or something. I drank my solution.
Just then, fell onto our table AGAIN! I jumped, this time yelping a bit. Now what?
"He likes to play silly games, FYI." Shego said, again, smugly. He exploded into anger, and then ran back upstairs again.
Shego had finished her water, and so had I. I was watching the woman sing;
"And if my love is true, then baby I know I can trust, no one but you…"
"Oh look." Shego mumbled. I looked to her, and then to where she was looking.
"Looks like Kimmie finally showed up."
Was that Kim? It didn't really look like Kim…the woman Shego indicated had short black hair and a dark blue dress, kind of like the singer. Oh…but this woman pulled out a Kimmunicator…
"You find the sidekick. Kim is mine." Shego hissed.
"You sure?" I asked.
"Yeah, now go!"
Shego sprinted away to the back of the room, and was sneaking up on Kim, her hands glowing. Just in time, Kim turned around, and dodged Shego's blow. The two began to fight.
I sighed. How the heck was I supposed to find Ron and Rufus in this place? And what did she expect me to do? Attack him?
Either that or she just wanted me out of the way so she could battle Kim alone…
Yeah. Most likely the latter.
I sighed, walking away from the destructive, noisy scene…tables crashed; the large chandelier eventually broke….
I stopped after a minute or two of walking around—why didn't I think of this before!
I found a panel in the wall in the back of the room—I ripped it open. Some people, who were around me, frightened, ran away with shrieks of terror. What was so scary about ripping off an electrical panel? Oh…well maybe it had to do with the fact that the main room was almost destroyed by two women, one with glowing green hands…
No matter. I stuck my hand in the panel, ripped off a few of the wires, and tapped into the circuit. I was looking for the security cameras. I found them after a few seconds. The electrical impulses went into my brain as I processed the images; the cameras' views. A minute later, I viewed Ron, wearing an obnoxious suit, in the poker room. What was he doing in there? I was sparking with electricity when I took my hand out of the panel.
I ran off, finding the room. I was almost thinking of going super speed after about ten minutes, but then I found the room. I opened up the doors, a little forcefully. They then slammed shut, but everyone had stopped by then.
"Joy?!?!"
As soon as I saw the shocked face of Ron Stoppable, my former friend and classmate (plus the shocked faces of several other poker players, including a Cowboy, an African, a Middle-Eastern man, etc), I again felt the unbearable pull between pleasing Drakken and Shego, and staying on the good side…
I hesitated, my mouth agape. I struggled to say something. Ron was cowering now. He was afraid of me.
I was sad. As hard as I tried, I couldn't help the tears forming in my eyes. But, strangely, instead of getting upset, I channeled it into anger.
I aggressively, with a cry of resentment, shot several jolts of electricity at Ron. The other poker players ran out of the room, but were stopped when Kim and Shego broke through the doors, landing on the poker table. Shego was on top of Kim and they were struggling. Shego, at one point, shot me an angry glance.
"KP!" Ron shouted.
I shot at Ron again. He attempted to dodge it, running away. I kept on shooting.
I viewed as the other several poker players had huddled in the corner of the room. They shook with fear, and then jumped when I looked at them.
"Yo! The Kid is in the house! Let's get this party started!" some short man said with a funny voice, coming in the room.
The crowd of poker players didn't move; they kept shivering, cowering from ME. Ron ran out of the room, bumping into the short man. I got angry, and blasted the poker players.
"GET OUT OF HERE!" I yelled at them. They winced at the pain of being electrocuted.
They ran out of the room. Shego and Kim continued to fight.
My power was in charge of me now. I couldn't have sympathy anymore. The Joy was gone…and the Shock had taken over.
I yelled, for no reason. I couldn't do anything freely anymore. I was overwhelmed with power. And since I wasn't wearing my suit, it was just free power now. It was wild.
I ran out of the poker room, back into the main, grand room. As I saw the room, almost empty, for all the guests were now attempting to leave out of fright, I felt such a sense of reality hit me. I felt it seep into me like the flood of several showers coming in through a crack of a house. The roof caved in. Every dear, precious item owned…ruined. What was once dry and perfected, was now wet and destroyed. Devastation. Desolation. Everything! Ruined! Gone! EVERYTHING! GONE!
My power, once controlling, was gone.
"KIM!" I heard Ron's voice yell across the room. His voice snapped me out of my stance.
I saw Kim holding Shego by the shirt, in the middle of the steps.
Within two seconds, the wall crashed behind them. The smoke cleared, and Doctor Drakken was flying the hover car.
"Shego! Joy! Time to fly!" he called.
Shego flipped backwards, kicking Kim in the face. I speeded up a bit, using my powers (but being careful not to be controlled again), to catch up with them. Shego and I jumped onto a ladder which was suspended from the hover car. Drakken lifted us up and out.
"You think you're all that, but you're not even close!" he yelled to Kim. We were all in the car now, taking our seats.
"HA! James Timothy Possible! Can you believe it?" Drakken shouted in victory.
"What are you rambling on about?" Shego asked, bothered. He must have ruined her moment of feeling happy and victorious of winning the battle with Kim...I wonder if she would win the war, too.
"James Possible! Kim Possible's father! The man I went to college with!"
"What about him?"
"He's the man who has the Cybertronic technology I need!"
"That was the information?" I asked.
"Yes!" Dr. Drakken smiled mischievously. A shiver was sent down my spine. He was scary, but it was a good thing, if that makes sense.
"Phase two is complete!" he laughed. "And phase three is at hand…"
"Which is?" Shego and I strangely said at the same time. We looked at each other. I felt the urge to say 'Jinx! You owe me a soda!'
Drakken didn't answer us. He just laughed evilly. Shego sighed, focusing on driving the hover car. I cowered. I didn't want to know. I looked down at my gold dress that Drakken had picked up for me to wear.
Why? Why about everything! Everything was always a question! At points like this I couldn't afford this air of mystery, when I'm losing control over my powers, and I had to struggle with my loyalty for Drakken, Shego, and Kim and Ron. Nothing was clear! I was a teenager, for Pete's sake! I should have a normal life, being a normal girl, in high school with friends and a family and pressure from growing up, boys, friends, school work…
But there was nothing normal about an orphan with electrical powers.
No! It didn't matter. I didn't care. I would try to have a normal life. I have to.
This was the last straw. My power controlled me, tonight, for the last time. I…I had made up my decision!
I was leaving Dr. Drakken and Shego.
