Two Lives Made For Violence: Chapter Seven:
Back at Drakken's lair
Kim walked into the room, an upset silence following her; Shego came in carrying two body parts in a black bag over her shoulder.
"All I'm saying is I did tell you something embarrassing!"
"No, you gloated about a sexual experience! Two completely different things!"
Felix, Drakken, Wade and Monique just all looked at each other, shrugging for answers.
"Ok you two love birds! Kiss and make up, Shego put the body on the tray, please be careful it's not a sack of potatoes!" Monique called out, getting a pair of rubber gloves on.
Shego put the body on the table, bright lights under the glass table lighting up every detail of the gruesome body.
"Ok, you two want to stay?" Felix asked, Kim just looked at Shego, who had a 'I'm sorry- but it was funny' smile on her face.
Kim stormed out the room, Shego trying to catch up with her.
"Kimmie! Kimmie!" Shego called after her, sighing Kim turned round "Are you still mad at me? Cuz ya know, it's been like a whole ten minutes." Shego admitted.
"Ya know some of us have emotions. We're not always pissed off or happy." Kim said, regarding to the fact Shego didn't seem to act on different emotions
"I'm not always pissed off, or happy! I can be sensitive at times!" Shego argued
"Really, open up to me then, say something really emotional." Kim said
There was a long silence
"Ok, we're clearly done here, bye Shego I have to get rid of the smell of blood."
"No wait Kim…" Shego ran in front of Kim "There is something." Not much distance between the distance between the two women.
Kim waited for Shego to continue
Shego was waiting for an answer to come into her head.
"I have green skin! How much more embarrassment do you want from me?" Kim was actually surprised. Shego was sensitive about her skin?
"Well I suppose… it's not that green." Kim said, uplifting both their moods.
"There we go! So we good?"
"Yeah we're good." Kim admitted, smile spreading through their faces. Shego gave Kim a friendly punch on the arm and left her to get showered; they both needed one, as well as her car.
Jeez! Imagine taking a shower with your car! I don't care if it's impossible I wanna try it! Maybe another time though…
Monique was currently running blood samples, Felix was taking a look the location Shego had pointed out, but with the naked eye he saw nothing, but he trusted the thief's instincts more than his own. Grabbing a type of magnifying glass, he hovered it over the woman's neck, looking at the monitor above him, he came across two dents into the skin.
"Monique! Wade! Can you guys come over here for a sec!" Felix called out, the two adults came over.
"Do you guys see what I'm seeing?"
"Yeah, I'll get searching on that indentation. Drakken you can help," Wade said, Drakken had been working on the bomb that had been placed in his car, determined to track the terrorist down. If it was a terrorist, murder, physcopath he would have vengeance! No one made Drew pray! Only his mother made him do that!
Shego let the hot water run over her body
You punched her in the arm as a warm up? What the hell is wrong with you? Who the thinks punching someone in the arm is a way of making up?
It was a friendly punch!
That's what Dad's do with their sons!
Hey, Dad did it to me all the time!
And this is the exact same scenario isn't it?
Oh shut up!
Kim was letting the hot water run over her
"Well you're not 'that' green." What the hell? Was that the best you could say to make someone feel better about their skin, "it's not 'that' green" just saying it's a little less makes everything better!
I deserved that dead arm!
Kim and Shego, both mentally kicking themselves, turning off the showers. They got dried, not realizing their perfect sync, which was broken as Shego remembered she had evidence to remove from her car, and Kim was in desperate need of new clothes and food!
Just for laughs, Shego had decided to give the car a new body spray, it had been a silver and black before, but now it was metallic black with orange side trims. The interior had been changed from torn and blood covered bits of leather to an interior that matched the new body work. Replacing the Audi hoops on the steering wheel that had been smashed – due to Shego's road rage. She also replaced the terribly worn tires, finally sliding from underneath the car, hands covered in oil.
She let out an exhausted "phew."
Washing her hands she went upstairs, a very sad atmosphere was in the air.
The room had a tint a clear type of grey or at least that's what Shego saw- a bit like the rain if you ever see a pure rain drop.
"Did someone die?" Shego asked
"You could say that," Wade admitted
"Well someone wanna tell me what's wrong? Or do I have to figure it out myself?" Kim approached Shego,
"On the night the woman was murdered, the CCTV footage of you at the asylum, it showed you getting up and not going back to your room for a good few hours, coincidently the time was around this woman was killed."
"Your point being?" Shego asked, hating where this might be going.
"Well the description you wrote in your sleep on the lab walls, they matched the victem's death Shego. Maybe I should have sent you straight back to the asylum." Drakken spoke
They think I'm insane… again
"No guys, I swear I never killed anyone, I was thinking it! But I swear I would never!" Shego couldn't even bring herself up to say the word, thankfully Kim stepped in
"What Shego's saying is the evidence is completely in her favour, since how on earth would she get her hands on a chainsaw? While being in a restraint jacket, also we have the CD of the murderer's, and the corpse. And what alibi would Shego possibly have for wanting to kill someone?"
Everyone just looked at the hero, eyes as wide as plates, the hero sticking up for the villain, what a frekkin cliché!
"Kim its ok, they were just curious." Shego said, wondering if there was going to be a punch up.
"Anyway, the two murders. You see this wave?" Wade said, pointing to one large beat, "This changes ever so slightly during the second half of the message, the voice is near identical that even I had a hard time telling the difference."
"So two people, identical voices, that narrows it down." Shego said sarcastically.
"Yeah it does actually, this means they were identical twins." A silence filled the room, after Drakken's words.
"Also, there was something else. I don't know how Shego managed to spot it with the naked eye, but there is the faintest indentation in the victim's neck, with a lot of research put into it, it turned out it was the form of two buck teeth."
"Teeth? Like a vampire bite gone wrong?" Kim asked
"Not gone wrong, gone right. This is our murderer's next clue." Shego said, "What type of teeth? Human?"
"No, rodent. Naked Mole Rat."
Kim froze in her position; Shego noticed the color drain from her face.
Kim I love you so much. Heard so many times
I am so sorry. Hear that one more time I'm gonna blow
If you leave my life I'd kill myself. The blade seems to be taunting me in a way. God I should have called his bluff.
"Kim?"
Just let him drag the razor across his wrists, why should I care? It would have been for the best
"Kim?"
I mean, if I had walked out could I have taken that risk. I've almost lost a loved one due to poor choices, why do I always seem to be weak? People have a strong power over me! It's just not god damn it fair. I've been a teen hero
"Kim?"
For a good majority of my life, and this is how I'm repaid? By some low life, pain in the ass, buffoo-
"KIM!" Shego shouted at the top of her lungs, snapping Kim out of her mental rant.
"What?" Kim shouted back, not really meaning to snap. But she had a pent up anger inside her, and it was seriously getting stronger.
"What happened to Ron?"
Ron
The name brought a pain into her heart, Kim wanted to cry. She ran out the room.
Leaving a clueless Shego, but a half aware Monique, she didn't know the complete situation, but she had gathered up enough to know that Ron and Kim were defiantly over.
Shego was about to run after Kim, but a gentle hand on her shoulder stopped her.
"Leave her for herself for a few hours, she'll come round." Shego wanted to argue, but the look she saw in Monique's eyes were full of wisdom (the wisdom that only a best friend could know of, after years and years of history) Shego grunted, and went back to examine the corpse.
In Kim's room 6: 30pm 1/ 05/ 2012
Kim ignored the gentle knock at her door.
"Kimmie?"
It wasn't Shego's voice, it was Monique's. Sniffing, she got up to answer the door, leaving her damp pillow behind her.
"Hey, you wanna tell me what's wrong?" Monique said in a gentle voice
"Not really, I don't even want to tell myself just yet." Monique nodded
"Just beep me if you wanna reach me." Monique said, hoping to get a laugh from the red head, sadly not even getting a smile.
Shego 2:15 am
Shego tossed and turned in the bed. She knew she could do something, there was something in her mind, an idea that wanted to be lit, make the red head happy.
The raven haired woman continued to think. There was that special idea that you only get once in a while, it was the idea she desperately needed to find!
Thinking
Thinking
Thinking
GOT IT!
Shego's eureka moment inspired her to literally rip the covers off her, get changed, and get into the car as quickly as possible.
Kim's room 3: 20 AM
Kim's pillow still remained damp.
Her door was quietly opened, if it wasn't for previous experiences with ninja's she may not have heard the intruder.
She played the false sleep trick on the intruder.
Instead of expecting to hear the sound of a blade being pulled out, she felt something fluffy inserted into her arms, opening one eye.
It was worn, black stomach, a white patch on its eye, a panda face but with kangaroo legs. Kim practically dragged the stuffed animal into her warm arms. Wondering who the intruder was, she sat up, to see Shego standing by her bed. Kim put her hand in Shego's and pulled her into the warm bed.
Shego hid her smile in the darkness, getting onto her side of the bed.
"Ok I was wrong." Kim said simply, cuddling up next to the older woman.
"Wrong about what?" Hiding the smile spreading across her face
"You're not just angry and happy. You're caring, funny, sarcastic, smart, calm in some situations, short tempered, bad ass, sometimes a bit too full of yourself-"
"A simple thank you, will be acceptable ya know?" Shego said, cutting Kim off
"But your great all the same, thank you Shego." Kim said, placing a kiss on Shego's temple, Shego just grunted in response. Thankfully Kim didn't see the smile on Shego's face that went from ear to ear.
10: 00 AM 2/05/2012
Once again, Kim was the first to wake up. But she felt the urge to stay next to Shego, so she did. All though she started to become irritated as seconds, to minutes, to hours past as she waited for Shego to wake up. The woman was acting like she was in a coma!
She was going to tell Shego, about Ron. She had to; her heart really didn't want to keep this secret in any longer. Ever had that feeling, where there is something you can't tell anyone because it will affect their opinion of you? Well that is how Kim felt right now. But ten times worse. Looking at her clock, it showed close to lunch time.
"Shego" Kim said, fed up of waiting for the woman to wake up from whatever psychotic dream she may have been having.
No response
"Shego!" Kim shouted, Shego finally started to awake, grabbing the pillow and covering her ears
"Mhhm, pasta." Shego said unconsciously, Kim could only roll her eyes as Shego's stomach shared as similar thought by releasing a large growl.
In Shego's mind –
Shego looked at the massive bowl of pasta and tuna mixed together, looking round she dove into the bowl, unaware of what lay in the bowl. As Shego entered the bowl, a large ostrich suddenly emerged from the pasta. Smirking it started to chase the tiny woman.
Shego looked up in fear as the large ostrich started to stomp on her with its large feet. Shego sprinted away from her large bowl of pasta, soon finding herself on some sort of pig farm.
There was a fence behind her that led to freedom, but the ostrich was catching onto her quickly, taking her chances she went into a sprint, as soon as she jumped over the fence she found herself at an airport.
"Huh? What happened to my pasta?" She asked, suddenly there were Spanish police filled the room, all with ostriches in blue over coats and leashed to their owners (like sniffer dogs… but ostriches!) Shego wondered if she was going to make a bolt or not (not really bothered if this was reality) but her eyes locked onto a brutally murdered air hostess who had been left to hang off an 'easy jet' sign.
Suddenly the ostrich that had been chasing her poked its head round the corner of a pale blue wall. Shego gave chase, soon finding herself on a motorway, a police squad behind her, a red headed girl tied up in the back seat, and the ostrich in the passenger seat
"What the fuck?" She asked. Pulling over the black Lamborghini, the moment Shego stepped out a red Honda hit her.
Groaning she got off the car, shaking the glass off of her cat suit, an old lady got out the car, it was Kim's nana. Somehow Kim had escaped the bounds that held her to the back of Shego's car.
"Kimberly dear, I think we hit something!"
"Shego."
"Yeah"
"Shego!"
Shego looked round to find the source of the voice
"Shego?"
End of random dream –
Shego finally opened her eyes, gladly accepting reality.
"Oh it's about time; you have some really weird dreams by the way." Kim added, dragging Shego out of bed.
"That is the weirdest dream I have ever had." Shego said more to herself than to Kim.
"Shego?" Kim asked, taking Shego's hand in her own, Shego stopping dead in her tracks.
"Hmmn?"
"I need to tell you something." Shego just smiled.
A normal person, about to receive the horrible news.
"Kim, now think first. Do you really want to tell me? Or do you just want to get it off your chest? Because one of them I'll judge you on, the other I won't. I'll just listen for you."
Kim had not been expecting that, did she want someone's opinion in this?
"Can I go with both?" Kim asked sheeply, Shego nodded, sitting on the bed. Looking straight into Kim's forest eyes.
"Well, the thing with me and Ron."
Shego just listened, she would not comment until the end.
"We're defiantly over, done, finished, nothing more." Shego nodded, getting the picture.
"And well, the reason we're over is because he was…" That look in Shego's eyes, would it kill her to know that emotions were the cause of physical bruises. "… Was…" oh god I can't do this "he cheated on me."
Kim's forest eyes flared purple, a deep lying shade of purple, Kim's last words tasted true, but not the whole truth, like having half of something great.
"You gonna say something?" Kim asked
"Do you want me to?"
"Yes, anything, really anything will make me feel better."
"Ok, I don't believe you."Shego said casually, standing up, walking round the room and looking outside just to check the weather. This caught Kim off guard. "It's the truth, but not the complete truth. If that's all you want to tell me, then that's fine, but don't try and tell me that's it." Shego said, a silence building up between the two women. Shego turned to leave,
"Shego wait!" The woman stopped, regardless of what Kim had to say, Shego would be there for her, she didn't know why, or for what purpose, but it felt like the right thing to do, actually the natural thing to do.
"He hit me." Kim breathed out, relief came over her that at least someone else knew. She didn't feel so alone now.
Hit Kimmie? The buffoon? The one who couldn't perform a back flip? Shego couldn't help but chuckle
"Your kiddin' right?"
Kim shook her head sadly.
Oh fuck, he actually did. Kim noticed the plasma flare up and Shego wasn't wearing her gloves, so Kim wasn't sure how fire resistant Shego's skin was.
That fucking prick hurt Kim? I'm going to fucking kill him!
"Shego?" Kim asked, scared to approach the raging woman
I'm gonna tie him up to a chair, poor boiling hot water down his back, take a pair of pliers and twist his tong off and his dick and sitch them in the other places,
"Shego?"
I swear to fucking god, I am going to make him suffer a hundred times worse than possible, that he will wish he was dead. I'm gonna take his eyeballs out, stick 'em on a fork and make him eat it, then I'll make him throw up, leave him to starve so he's forced to eat his own vomit!
While Shego was silently planning the blonde man's death, Kim just watched green plasma flare furiously, the dead still woman stood in the middle of the flames, Shego is not taking this as well as I thought! Kim thought, running past the woman, returning with a fire extinguisher (which wasn't surprising to find it closest to Shego's room.)
Pulling the trigger, Shego's flames were extinguished, while Shego spat out the foam that had entered her mouth.
As if snapping into reality, Shego looked round. She was about to say something, but then her phone went off, a heavy metal ring tone echoing round the room.
"Yup?"
"Shego? It's Seal."Shego's face grew serious
"He says he wants Nurse Verta."
A/N
Ya know that dream Shego had? Yeah… no more hot chocolate before bed for me! I'm not kidding, I actually had this dream! Not with these exact characters, but I seriously did get hit by my friend's nan's car! And get chased by an ostrich! And the bowl of pasta!
"What part of living says you gotta die?" My favorite quote today! Just sayin
