CHAPTER TEN – A MISSION FOR SHEGO
The Possible house moments after the fight
Ann had been waiting for Kim and Shego not so patiently by walking back and forth in the kitchen she was seconds away from pulling her hair out when she heard the backyard door open, she ran out the kitchen in hopes that they had not seriously injured each other. To say that she was shocked would have been an understatement for what she saw were both women just casually walking back into the house side by side, they looked like they had just come back from a shopping trip minus any bags when they had actually been physically fighting.
"First off who's hurt the most and secondly where?" Ann asked.
Both Kim and Shego looked at each other then back to Ann and started to laugh, a laugh which was completely honest and one Ann had not heard from her daughter in a long time which brought a smile to her face.
After a few moments Kim was able to compose herself and replied "mom we are actually fine and other than a few bumps and bruises we are perfectly healthy, plus Ki...I mean Shego heals really fast so she probably doesn't show any signs of the fight we just had. Also though we fought we talked quite a bit and were able to get some things off our chests "I'd like to introduce my friend..." looking at Shego and asking a silent question she received a nod "...my friend Kimberley Shelia Van Gogh".
Ann looked towards Shego about to ask the question on her lips but was beaten by Shego "yes that's my real name but it is to be kept in this room by the three of us only, my brothers and now you are the only ones who know my true name and I would like it kept that way...please" both Possible's responded by nodding in agreement.
Ann looked towards both girls with an evil smirk that rivalled any Shego could produce and asked "so now that the fighting is over would the two Kimmie's like anything to eat?"
This question of course made Kim look at her mum sternly while Shego just looked annoyed and said "I knew this would happen" and then groaned making both female Possible's laugh and in turn made Shego herself laugh.
Moments later we find all three women around the kitchen table with Kim and Shego seated opposite one another while Ann was at the head of the table, Kim and Shego are both eating a full English breakfast with a coffee while Ann just had a coffee. Ann was watching both women and in her head it seemed that neither had much on their minds though she was fully aware that though they were calling each other a friend now she could see they were still holding feelings towards each other as both were taking not so sly glances at each other and this only made her happy yet worried at the same time. Happy that they had found each other after such a long time and that there was still that spark that just needed igniting into an eternal and everlasting flame, yet she was worried for what the future would bring and what complications would arise yet there was still hope. Hope that knowing both women one personally and the other through hearsay and reputation she knew both were strong willed and they would not make the same mistakes again and in the end she knew they would find the love they so wanted for one another.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door which brought all three women out of their internal thoughts and Kim looked at Shego worried which was obviously picked up by Shego as she responded to Kim's worry with "no one should know I'm here but I will stay out of sight" Kim nodded while Shego ran up the stairs to hide.
Kim went to the door after disposing of Shego's empty breakfast plate while Ann just tried to get her worry and breathing under control.
Kim was surprised to find Betty at her doorstep or as she was better known Dr. Director head of Global Justice, seeing this woman even knowing that she could be called friend and she was known to visit Kim from time to time over this past year she found herself still worried knowing that Shego was also in the house.
Trying to hide her worry and shock she asked "Betty, what can we do for you this morning?" which was only met by Betty's calculating eye.
"May I come in? I'm here for a personal request and an unofficial GJ request" this only made Kim more worried. Did she know Shego was here? Was she here for Shego? And if so was she here to arrest her? Was she going to ask herself to do a mission? Perhaps it was something completely different.
Kim led Betty into the kitchen and they all sat down this time with Betty sitting in the same spot Shego had been sitting seconds before.
Betty looked across at Kim and saw the worry and desperation in Kim's eyes obviously wondering why she was here "Kim I know you are worried why I am here but if anything this past year should at least tell you I am a friend and would do anything in my power to help you".
Kim could feel Shego's presence; she always could, knowing she had probably made her way down the stairs to check things out. Knowing Shego was there and obviously just wanted answers just like her, Kim asked her question "you said you were here for a personal request which is also an unofficial GJ request but you should know by now I am not in the hero business anymore and will being no missions right now".
Betty nodded along with Kim as Kim continued on "so why are you really here?"
Betty had seen the changes that Kim had gone through this past year and even though Kim tried to hide the fact that she had somehow increased her skills that could rival most professionals she could not hide it from herself and she knew it was pointless to hide the truth from Kim.
"Have you heard about this vigilante/hero who goes by the name 'The Green Streak', they are extremely well trained and skilled in pretty much everything and apart from what they wear and some of this persons skills we know absolutely nothing about them. I need help, they are not exactly wanted by the law I just need more information and if possible the chance for a meeting and perhaps get them labelled a hero and then do actual good for society".
"I don't do that anymore".
"And I know that but I'm not actually here for your help...I know she's back and she is probably listening to our conversation right now". Betty said with a slight smile.
"Your damn right I'm listening and I told you to stop trying to bring me in, just as Kimmie is not a hero I am no longer a villain. So leave. Me. Alone" Shego snapped back as she emerged from around the kitchen door.
"Hold your horses I'm not here to bring you in and I may not have stopped looking for you this past year, personally I was doing it for a different reason" Betty said while looking at Kim.
"Okay... so I'm to believe that the only reason that the head of GJ has been looking for me is that she was trying to reunite Kim and myself, was that the only reason?"
Betty looked to her side while holding her eye patch and replied "not the only reason but it was the main reason. If anything I was trying to redeem myself for a past mistake I made several years ago which lost me someone I loved like a daughter, I thought if I could help Kim maybe somehow I could prove I was not the same person..." Betty by now had a few stray tears that had ran down her face from her good eye "I also wanted to prove to the higher ups that 'The Green Streak' was not you in disguise, I wanted to prove to them that you could and have changed". Betty wiped the tears away and looked at Shego.
"Okay say I believe this..." suddenly Kim's head snapped towards Shego with a very angered look which made Shego take a step back "...what can I do to help you?" Shego quickly asked.
Kim smiled at Shego which made her feel a happiness she had not felt in what seemed like forever and Shego knew she would do anything for Kim to always smile at herself like that.
"Well that's the easy part you are just going to be you but with a change of costume...I can't have 'Shego' running about now can I? So I have taken the liberty of making an all black suit similar to your original except this comes with a hood and a black mask to hide your identity. Oh! And no powers that would give away who you are, I don't really want you to come to blows with each other I just want you to past on a simple message to 'meet me and join the good guys full time' and that's all. Then you can return to wherever you are staying and live out your life however and...With whoever you want" Betty said while smirking towards Kim which resulted in a slight blush emerging on Kim's face.
Shego smiled, an honest smile, a smile she could not recall the last time she had smiled such a smile and all this because Kim blushed at what Betty implied.
"Fine, I agree but I want all the info you have on GS (short for The Green Streak)"
"Done" Betty said while tossing a folder onto the table towards Shego's direction who sat down and started to go through the folder.
After a few minutes Shego looked at Betty with a bewildered look and said "what the hell is this? All you got is outfit they wear, numerous skills and tools GS is known to use and that they patrol Lowerton most nights. Basically you know nothing more than the local newspapers, am I correct in my assumption of the situation...you don't even have any defining features listed or even the sex of this person".
"Pretty much" Betty responded in a dead panned manner.
"URGH!" Shego screamed making Kim laugh at her distress.
"If it was easy you wouldn't enjoy it" Kim managed to say after her laughing fit.
Shego got up from the table grabbing the outfit Betty had placed there while Shego had been reading the folder and just before leaving out of everybody's line of sight Shego sincerely said "Betty"
Betty looked towards Shego shocked at the tone she had heard but said nothing in response.
Without looking back and still just standing at the doorway Shego continued on "If I can change and you clearly are not the same woman I once knew...perhaps...there may be a slight chance for this woman you loved like a daughter to give you another chance but don't rush things give her the time she needs" and as Shego said the final words she disappeared around the corner.
Betty could see that Kim had the look of realisation in her eyes and her head was comically darting back and forth between where Shego stood and where Betty was sitting. "Yes Kim, a teenage Shego was the little girl I loved like a daughter but my blind faith in my country led me to just follow orders stupidly when I should have followed my heart. You already know most of Shego's story or at least what was in that folder, Shego is the reason I created GJ for my silence in the 'Agent Green' debacle the C.I.A. said I could do anything or go anywhere I wanted. I chose to create my own agency and with the hope that I personally would bring Shego in and somehow bring my little 'firecracker' back".
Just outside the kitchen could be found the one and only Shego leant up against the wall and listening to every word. What everyone would find surprising is the fact that tears were streaming down her face having listened to Betty's confession.
Having finally made her way to the spare bedroom which was where Shego would be staying she dropped the outfit Betty had given her along with the file into a single arm chair and then fell into her bed and using the pillow to silence the sobbing that came from Shego. Today had been a very trying day for quite a few different parties all ending up in tears and if Shego was to look at the clock she would have discovered that the day was not even close to being over for it was only 12:17.
To be continued
So what next for Kim and Shego? What next for Betty and Shego? What will happen when Shego confronts The Green Streak? Or better yet what will happen when Shego finds that The Green Streak is really Kim? DUN DUN DUN
