Megamind laughed evilly when Minion removed the bag from his captive head. He turned around in his black chair to greet her just to be shocked when he did.
"Minion!" he yelled.
"Sir?" he asked in confusion.
"You got the wrong one," Meredith called, smiling devilishly herself.
This was going to be so much fun.
Across town Roxanne got into the elevator going up to work.
It was Monday and so far it was going great. Hal was most likely late again so she hadn't been bothered by him and unusually she hadn't been kidnapped by Megamind this morning.
Roxanne had been convinced he was going to strike again which was unusual, she had never been wrong in the past.
Oh well, it's not like I want to be kidnapped again.
Roxanne quietly hummed to herself when she noticed the young man giving her strange look.
"Luke?" Roxanne asked before smiling pleasantly at him "sorry it's just been a good day today."
He gave her another, more confused look before talking.
"My name is Nathan and I have no idea who you are lady."
Roxanne was shocked at his rudeness and that his voice sounded completely different to last time she met him.
"Megamind," she said under her breath, saying it as if she was swearing.
Nathan handed her a small business card "I know a guy who can get you help," he said before stepping out of the elevator.
Roxanne held the card tightly in two hands, looking down at the words printed across it. 'Psychiatric theory' was printed in bold purple letters with names of Psychiatrists written under it.
Roxanne quickly started plotting Megamind's death when she finally got off at the ground floor. She walked out of the building to soon hear screeching tyres coming her way.
As soon as the noise stopped in front of her she stepped to the side and grabbed for a doorhandle. Finding it quickly she jumped into the back the back seat of the old car and looked to the driver.
"Take me to Megamind," she demanded.
"Certainly Miss Ritchie," Minion said, confused by her willingness.
In under half and hour Roxanne and Minion were at Megamind's hideout and were getting out of the car.
Roxanne walked alongside Minion to the kidnapping room where she heard laughter coming from.
As soon as the door was open, she gulped at the sight of her sister talking to a laughing Megamind.
"And she ate the whole thing in one mouthful?" Megamind asked though breathless laughs.
"Yeah and it was flying everywhere," Meredith said mirroring Megamind.
When Roxanne's eyes met Megamind's she knew they were talking about her. By now Meredith had probably told Megamind every embarrassing story she had.
Was this karma for some forgotten wrong doing?
Roxanne frowned before stomping over to Megamind and slapping him thoroughly on the cheek.
"Ow, what was that for?" Megamind said rubbing his cheek.
"For Luke and kidnapping my sister," Roxanne said as Minion restrained her to another chair.
"I didn't kidnap your sister Minion did."
Roxanne's accusing eyes turned to Minion who was quickly tying her other hand up.
"You look exactly the same."
"No we don't," Both sisters said in unison.
"Anyway Miss Ritchie was just telling me about your seventeenth birthday Roxanne," Megamind said.
"Actually it's Miss Porter, Married," Meredith told him friendlily.
"Congratulations," Megamind commended.
"Divorced," Meredith corrected.
"Oh… congratulations!"
"Thank you," Meredith said.
Oh great, they get along!
Roxanne thought this must have been karma for overfeeding and killing Meredith's goldfish when she was eight, then covering it up by flushing it down the toilet and buying a new one.
"So I heard you two kissed yesterday," Meredith stated instead of asked.
Megamind turned purple before he looked to Roxanne for answers.
"You told her?" he asked.
"No you just did," Roxanne said when her sister began to cackle wickedly.
"You two should just get a room!" Meredith nearly screamed through laughter.
Roxanne looked at Megamind sympathetically. Unlike Megamind who hadn't really met Meredith before this, Roxanne had had years of practise with her.
Roxanne just sat back in her comfortable kidnapping chair.
"You kept the chair."
Megamind looked between her and the chair she was now lounging in, one eyebrow higher than the other on his face as a sign of confusion.
"Do know how expensive that thing was, not to mention the hours I spent trying to find my way out of IKEA. Of course I kept the chair," he replied.
"She gets a Lazy boy, when I have to sit on this piece of junk," Meredith complained.
"Yes Miss Porter, you are our very special guest, now prepare to be scared out of your wits," He said, rolling his chair over to a console to flip a switch.
Quickly the floor opened up to reveal an alligator pit.
Meredith looked blankly to Roxanne before turning to Megamind with an unimpressed look on her face.
"That camping trip with just mum was more comfortable than this," Meredith said to Roxanne who smiled.
"Just karma for telling Megamind about my birthday," Roxanne smiled and sat back.
Roxanne didn't know why she was enjoying this. She knew Meredith wasn't in any actual trouble but that still didn't warrant her gapping smile.
Roxanne smiled when she watched how hard he tried to scare Meredith, reminiscent on the times it had been her.
Why am I reminiscing about being kidnapped?
No matter how many times Megamind lost or how inferior he thought himself he still tried and tried again to impress her.
Wait, impress me. He wasn't trying to impress me…was he?
It had never hit Roxanne that Megamind had tried to impress her with his gadgets until now. She knew he constantly talked about how he would one day make her his queen and yesterday he did kiss her back but she only now realised he liked her.
Some of his devises had actually scared her but of course she never would admit that to him.
Wait, do I want to impress him too?
Roxanne came to the only logical conclusion… she liked Megamind. She, Roxanne Ritchie, star reporter and supposed girlfriend too Metro Man liked Megamind. Megamind, super villain and arch nemesis too Metro Man.
Roxanne screamed at the top of her lungs before she looked to Megamind who had looked back at her in shock and concern.
