I still don't own Kim Possible. *sigh* (I didn't know that the Great Mouse was ninja-proof. They cost me two thousand bucks at Hench Co!) LOL.
Yeah, about the delay, I guess the heat zapped out my enthusiasm. Every time I sit in front of my laptop, the freaking afternoon heat sucks all my energy. Therefore, after five minutes, I-I f-fe-f-feel (yawn) a b-(yawn)-bit tired (yawn) (head smacked at the table) Zzz...
*Jonathan smacks the back of my head with a rolled newspaper*
"Hey! What was that for?!"
"Just finish the story! For Christ's sake, K!"
"Fine! Fine! I'll finish this (yawn)... Uh... maybe later (yawn)"
*Eyes close, snores*
*I suddenly drop from the chair, but still sleeping*
"You pathetic piece of... Hmm."
*Jonathan looks on his sides then smiles evilly*
*He sits on my chair and begins typing*
"K's still a sucker. Guess I may write my story down. Hmm..."
As a character of my worthless, good for nothing,... err, handsome writer, I would like to share his nonsensical... I mean, other stories updated or published:
1. Chapter 1 of his second story in "Into The War Zone" will be posted on Friday, perhaps?
So, without further adieu, here's the seventh (God! I never knew he will survive this. But as much as an airhead he is, I want to say thanks for creating me) installment.
I'm Jonathan Ian Beatable. And this is...
You're The Best Thing I Never Knew I Needed
7. Chapter VI: "Drakken's Past"
Shocked.
Dr. Drakken was still dumbstruck. His mind went overload as he tried to sink those revelations in. First, someone entered his lair and destroyed his inventions as if he was having fun with it. Second, the intruder claims to be his son. And third, He wanted to help me in my plans for global conquest. Extremely baffled by his situation, he defiantly exclaimed:
"That's preposterous! I can't have a son. I don't have any relationship with anyone since college."
The young man then turned to him, his glee before now gone, and replied "Crazy? Well... Do you, by chance, know Alex? Alexandra Mae Possible? Well, She's now a Beatable but you know who."
Dr. Drakken's face went paler. It was a long time since he heard her name, probably since his youthful days. The name reverberates inside his head, sending chills down to his spines. Alex Possible. That name was the last thing he wanted to hear. That name bears every bit of pain and hardship he went through. And most importantly, that name was the reason he became the man he is today.
"H- H- How did you know h- her?" the blue skinned scientist croaked.
"Dad, he's my mother. Don't you remember her?"

(Twenty five years ago, Go City University grounds...)
"Grr! They just laughed at me. LAUGHED AT ME! And they called me crazy. I- I can't believe those! I'll show them who's crazy.. Grr!" Drew Lipsky ranted, kicking a bottle away from him.
He took a little stroll around the campus grounds after his 'humiliation streak' rose to a new level a while ago from his professors and colleagues. His thesis is about some sort of high energy form that can bend time. And places where these forms originate are what he called 'dimensional intersections'. His whole theory, however, was made fun and they mocked the hell out of him. He tried to persuade his listeners but no luck was found. He can survive their taunts, since no one has ever cared for him. But what made his heart shattered is the sight of his friends also joining the crowd, laughing at him.
"I thought you were my friends! The hell?!" Drew angrily thought.
As he realized there's nothing he could do as of this moment, he walked towards the exit doors, head sunk, sulking from the 'hell' he saw a while ago.
The night's breeze touched the young man's skin, which made him shiver. He continued to walk along the dark path until he heard something behind the wall.
"Hey, lady. Tonight we'll have some fun." One man said.
"Leave me alone! And don't you dare." The girl warned.
"Ooh! Looks like someone's a fighter, eh? This makes our playtime a little better, don you think?" The man said as his eyes gazed to the girl's nether regions. The girl ran but the goon caught her. He grabbed her and tried to drag him into a dark corner.
"HELP! HELP! SOMEONE PLE-" The girl shouted but was cut off when the criminal stuffed her mouth.
"I must do something about this! But how?" The young man thought. That man was big and muscular. He bet that he has a strength that can knock him out in a single punch. He needed a strategy to save the girl. He was about to get off the top of the wall, but he realized there was nothing to step to. He frantically grasp on anything but his lock came short. In short, he fell down. Cans and bottles came crashing down upon him. After a while, he got up and groaned "What the- !"
When Drew finished tidying up himself, he found out that the man was staring at him, a bit startled from the commotion. He then barked "Hey dude! What are you doing?!"
The aspiring scientist went pale as the brute stood up and slowly walked towards him. He got a baseball bat on his hand, waiting to pound him to death. He fearfully took steps behind, cowering from him. He then saw the girl, shouting something he can't understand. Her eyes were puffing from her crying. She then shouted again sounding like:
"HELP ME! PLEASE! I BEG YOU! HELP!"
Drew now knew what to do. He stopped taking backward steps and looked into his eyes. He took a deep breath and said "You know what, Let's settle this!"
"Huh! You're now going tough, eh? What is she to you? Your girlfriend?" the towering man sneered.
"Girlfriend?! Hmm... Come to think of it, she does look pretty. STOP THAT DREW! FOCUS! Trying to save a lady here." The boy with glasses thought.
"No. But you don't have any right to touch her like that."
"Hahaha! And who are you to make me take your orders, huh punk?" He retorted, closing on him a little bit.
"This!" He yelled as he charged with a stick on his hand. He gave all his might and tried his best to smash his face with his weapon. He leaped and screamed as he readied to swat him in the face. The slim stick slammed but suddenly it snapped. The attack did nothing to Lipsky's opponent. He then punched his midsection, which has no use also. He then faced him and nervously chuckled.
"Heh heh heh heh. S- So, go on and do your own thing while I do mine. Got it?"
The girl incredulously shouted, taking off the stuff inside her mouth "WHAT! ARE YOU CRAZY?! YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO SAVE ME!"
And suddenly, the big man raised his baseball bat, attempting to swing it towards the young boy. Petrified to death, he screamed while running away "SORRY!"
He bounded the knocked out garbage can and ran away as fast as he can. The brute was in pursuit of him, trying to catch the hell out of him. He hissed "COME BACK HERE YOU FOOL! I'LL TEACH YOU HOW NOT TO INTERFERE WITH OTHER'S BUSINESSES."
Along the way, Lipsky saw a low lying branch nearby. He ducked under it and sped off again. The man running after him, however, can't slow down, heading in a collision course with the sturdy branch. His head was hit hard, causing him to lose consciousness. The scrawny boy panted:
"Phew! Glad to think that's over."
He wiped the sweat off from his forehead and took off his glasses to clean them. After he cleaned himself up, he realized that the victim was still tied. He then rushed back to the place where the girl was held captive.
When he reached the place, he heard a couple of muffled cries. He then saw the girl, facing the wall, feeling all alone and lonely. Drew went towards her, put his hand on her shoulder, and whispered "Shh. There there. Everything's gonna be fine. The bad guy's now gone."
The girl faced him with stains of tears evident on her face. Her eyes were still puffy and lips quivering. She stare at his black eyes and croaked "Really?"
Drew smiled and replied, while untying the ropes "Yes."
After he was finished taking the ropes off of her, she suddenly grabbed him into a tight hug. She squealed "OH THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH."
Drew Lipsky, meanwhile, just stared. Here he was hugged by a beautiful girl he rescued from a muscular dude. Information that big made his brain go overload. He didn't know what he was feeling as of this moment. He felt something weird... something... fuzzy inside. Well, one thing's for sure: His lungs were now gasping for more air.
"He- Hey... Sorry... N... Need... A... A... Air!..."
The girl let go of him as Drew took in big breaths. She smiled sheepishly "Sorry."
He replied, still panting "That's alright. Although you sure know how to give someone a bear hug. That one's tight!"
She lightly chucked at his comment and asked "Heh. By the way, what's your name?"
The boy gestured a handshake and said "I'm Drew. Drew Lipsky."
The girl then shook his hand and smiled "I'm Alex. Alex Possible."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
From that dark situation, a friendship springs forth. Drew Lipsky and Alex Possible, a quantum physicist in the making and an aspiring medical practitioner, became friends in the unlikeliest of places. They started to hang out the day after the incident. The two quickly became best friends a month after.
For the dark haired boy, this was a turning point in his life. He doesn't have that many friends. Heck, Alex would be the only friend he got. And he thank God for that. She was headstrong, determined and assertive. He can really tell she's also smart. The two help each other despite their differences in their courses. She's also kind, thoughtful, and true. He can share everything to her and vice versa. The two stood for each other, although most of the time Alex was the one who defended him from detractors.
For the red headed girl, meanwhile, that moment made her realized something important. She now learns the lesson that no man, or perhaps girl, can stand alone. It overrides their family motto 'Everything's possible for a Possible'. When she became close with Drew, she felt like she can do anything. He may be a total goofball, but he can be the most loyal friend she ever had. He can make her smile in days she feels down. He even trusts her for sharing his secrets. And for that, she was grateful for having him in her life.
Their bond was like a rock: sturdy against the test of time. It really took a short time to realize that they were meant for each other.

(Two years after the incident. Go City University Park)
"Hmm... What to buy? What to buy for my love?" Drakken chirped as he walked along the sidewalk of the park. Today's their first anniversary and he has big plans in store. His only problem would be a gift to give her. A sign for his devotion and love for her. He then looked on his watch to see what time it was. The watch showed 6:37 PM. His plan will start at 7:00 PM.
"Oh my! It's almost time. I must hurry." He said.
The boy moved swiftly towards a shop. He was about to get out of the park when suddenly five big men blocked his path. Three were in front of them and two at the back. Drew squeaked "M- May you excuse me?"
One man walked in front of him and said "No. And don't you recognize me?"
The man pointed a scar in his forehead but Drew was still confused.
"Uh... Uh... N- No Not really."
The man smiled evilly "Well then, let me remind you."
five men brought out their weapons. They were now nearing the poor boy slowly. Drew tried to run away, but one man smacked his face back down. They started to beat him up. Their big fists connected to parts of his body. Drew also tried to fight back but that made them to beat him up even more. Drew's senses started to blur. His brain was in stress from all the pain he took. And when he was thrown away like a rag doll, he felt his ribs breaking. The man with the scar went towards him, holding a bottle filled with some strange liquid. He then spat:
"Goodbye."
He splashed all the contents to him. The acid reacts to his skin violently. He's now in screeching pain. He was screaming in pain as the acid seeps through his tissues. The men, however, laughed at the anguish Drew was in. They all left him when he can't scream any longer. He was too tired, too fatigued, and too hurt to do anything. he then closed his eyes and merely whispered "Alex... Sorry"
He then dove into unconscious sleep.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Drew sat up, waking from his dreamless sleep. He still felt a bit sore from the bruises. He groggily stood up and rubbed his temples due to his headache. He then muttered "Where am I?"
He looked for the time and it says 3:21 AM.
His face went sour as he thought of all his plans gone to waste. He was so miffed that those guys interrupted his plan of making his girl happy. He angrily whispered to himself "You will pay! I swear, you will all pay!"
He walked slowly, thinking of all the vile things he will do if ever he will meet them again, towards his dorm. And as he reached his room, he took his keys and opened the door. He noticed there was a pink envelope lying on the table. He sat on a chair, took the envelope, and tore the top. It was a letter made by Alex. It wrote:
To my dearest Drew,
I'm very sorry if I can't come with you tonight. I know it's our anniversary and all, but due to some circumstances, I can't. But before that, I want to share to you something.
You know, from the day, or night, that I met you, my whole world turned a 180. It was like a complete turnaround for me. You probably know what I meant. I was a snob back in high school. I follow that damned 'Food Chain'. I have superficial friends. I am the very definition of a bitch. And from that, speaking, or even going near you, is an unpardonable sin for the law.
But you know what? I don't care now. From that fateful moment, I realized that I was being stupid for most of my life. I felt like I'm nothing when that guy tried to get into my pants. You saved me from him. You, a geek, a nerd, save me. You charged at that man with courage, though it didn't have an effect to him. You were brave to defend me, a total stranger at that time. When you ran and the guy chased you, I went into deep thought. I felt guilty from all that I've done to people that were being nice to me because they were low. I cried because you made me realize that no one should be treated like that. I remembered every person who tried to help me but I repay them with a sucker punch.
Your friendship was my treasure. You really made me feel that I can do anything. You were the best friend anyone would even dream of. And I am very very grateful that I found you. You're the best that sometimes I feel bad because I can't even return that favor. I know I've been a bad friend to you. I lied to get into some party, locked you inside the bathroom when John (her ex) came, and even hurt your feeling when I go with other guys. But you said that it's alright and you understand. I'm ashamed of that. You don't deserve me. But you insisted that it's okay.
And our friendship blossomed into something more. At first I was scared, because of those 'what if' questions. I was heartbroken when I found out that John sees someone else. You were there to comfort me. You poured your heart in front of me. You confessed your feelings for me. You said every word I need to get back up. That was when I realized that I have always loved you. All of those precious moment came down to this day. I said yes and we shared a kiss we will never forget.
Don't get me wrong, but I really enjoyed all the days we've been together. I appreciate all the dates and gifts we gave to each other. I remember the date in a zoo where the birds flew around you, poking your head. Every day was a blast when I'm with you. You made me experience true happiness. And I thank you for that. And you do remember our out-of-town trip. We were out of ourselves for the past two day. Especially that night you made love to me. You were the first one to touch me like that. And frankly, I would be glad to give that to you. It sure was a hot and steamy night.
You were the best friend/boy friend/lover for me. But, sadly, we can't go on. A month ago, I bought a pregnancy test kit. Three times it went positive. I then went to a gynecologist and she affirmed that I was indeed pregnant. I was happy on one part because I always wanted to have a child with you. You know I have this dream of you and me, living in our own house with our family. But, on the other side, I felt scared. My parents were always strict to me. And if they find out that I'm having a baby, they would kill me.
And that's why I can't come with you. They actually found out the news and said I'm going home. They were really upset with me. I tried to explain to them that we were meant to be but they resisted. I'm very sorry that I failed you. I don't know what to do. I just can't leave my parents. I am their daughter. So, I'm very sorry.
I assumed that you still didn't tore this letter up, I wanted to say that I will always love you. But, I think you should find your happiness. Don't let them get in your way. You are very special, Drew. And, I want the best for you. Go and make your dreams come true. I know that one day, you'll be a world-renown scientist. I believe in you like you believe in me. And don't worry, If were really destined for each other, there will be a way, right? For now, keep living! And I love you.
Your loving girl,
Alexandra Mae Possible
The battered young boy was now in tears. He read the letter word by word. Streams of tears flow freely on his face. The pain he felt a while ago was easily dwarfed by this pain. His Alex was now gone. She was taken away from him. His silent cries turned into wails as he reached the end of the letter. He took an object near him, and threw it straight to the mirror. It shattered into pieces. He then looked at his reflection and saw an odd complexion.
The boy went nearer to a big piece of the shattered mirror and saw his skin blue. He gasped and walked back. He then cried loudly "OH LORD! WHAT HAVE I DONE TO YOU TO DESERVE THIS?!"
He smashed everything inside. causing his other dorm mates to wake up. After Drew finished smashing his room, he panted "I... will... have... my... REVENGE!"
Drew jumped out of the window and the whole campus didn't saw him ever since.

(Present time. Lair)
"S- So, y-" Drakken stammered.
"I'll say it again. Alex Possible's my mother and you're my father." Jonathan said.
Drakken, still doesn't know what to do. Memories of his past suddenly gushed inside his head, remembering every detail of his past life. The life before his villainy. The life he should have. Unable to think what to say, he croaked "S- S- Son?"
Jon's eyes were watery and rushed towards his father to give him a hug. Drakken opened his arms as he anticipated his own son to come to him. The two hugged each other tightly, longing for each other's touch. Tears flow from their faces. Drakken and Jon were in that position for minutes until they broke the hug. The blue skinned scientist said "Son, I'm sorry if I-"
"It's okay, dad. If I were you I would be baffled as well." Jonathan said reassuringly.
"Well, I'm glad to see you again... So, how's she doing?"
"Uh... Dad, she's dead."
"Oh. Since when?"
"Ten years ago."
"Oh... Did she tell you anything?"
"Dad, her parents were brutal to her. When I'm still in her womb, she was treated as the 'black sheep' of the family. Her brothers were cold to her. Her parents were mad at her because of me. She always says to me that she regretted she chose them over you. Her life's been hell for her. When I was six, my mother married my legal father. That's when I became a Beatable. He was really good to me and mom. She said he kinda reminds her of you. But sadly, a year later, she died. Before that, she said to me that it was my mission to look for you."
"I see... I'm sorry I'm not with you. If only I have-"
"No, it's okay dad."
"Y- Yeah... By the way, if you're Alex' son, then why are you Kim Possible's boyfriend? You two are both Possibles, right?"
Jon smiled "Simple: revenge."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Meanwhile in Japan, a new toy factory was opened. Nakasumi-san cut the ribbon by scissors and the whole audience clapped. After the opening program, the president of Nakasumi Toys Inc. and it's board, the manager of this factory, and media went inside to see and explore the new fully automated system. As they opened the door for the assembly area, three cans were thrown at them, spitting out smoke around the room. Nakasumi-san was dragged out by a person but the others can't see him
"HELP!" he shouted.
The first man in a ninja outfit said "Be quiet or you'll be hurt."
They were about to go outside when a red headed teen swung into action. She kicked the three away from Nakasumi-san. The ninjas groaned and looked. One of them was shocked "It is impossible!"
The teen heroine replied "No." She raised to her fighting stance and added "but real close."
A/ N's: Wooh! Another chapter served! :)
Let me explain:
1. Alex Possible (OC) is the cousin of James Possible, father of Kim Possible.
2. Jonathan was made from their out-of-town trip, three months before she went away and before he wast turned blue. (That's why he's not blue)
3. At first, I wanted this chapter to have Jonathan and Drakken's talk and Shego's attempt to capture Nakasumi-san. But since the talk took a big space, The fight will be featured on the next chapter. (which will be posted in Friday)
4. The whole Possible clan doesn't know Jonathan as one within their bloodline. Alex stayed out and the only ones who actually know Jon will be Alex and her parents.
BTW. Thanks for the 3000 hits I have with this story. I appreciate it :D
Here's the UD! Hope you enjoy :)
