Pairing: KiGo, Mo/Rach
A/N: Yo.
Don't own the show. Pointless to sue, don't got money.
Enjoy. ^^
This couldn't be happening. This just couldn't be happening. No. I refuse to believe this was happening.
I closed my eyes, hoping to see the black void that had been my home for so long, but when I opened them again, I was still standing in the basement, staring at Monique and Rachel.
"No."
It was a silent prayer that this wasn't real, but I knew it was useless.
"NO!" I screamed out, feeling my powers surge through Kim's body and around the room.
"Sai stop! You'll hurt her body doing that."
"She's gone." I snarled at Rachel, "She went through all this fucking crap to get me my body, and she's fucking gone!"
Rachel sighed, "I know Sai. I'm sorry."
"She's not gone. Not completely."
We all froze at that voice. I looked at the crypt, where a ghost was now levitating above it.
"Saiem..."
I gulped, "Gran?"
"Ah, so you do remember who I am." She murmured, a small smile tugging at her lips, "Your friend is not gone. She waits for you."
"Where?"
"Where your family is."
I watched as she faded away; though I kept staring at the spot she had been. Where my family is...? The way she said that makes it sound as if they're all alive. That doesn't make any sense though, my family is all dead. Every last one of them.
"Um. Who was that?"
I looked over at Monique, Kim's friend who had helped me jus as much as Kim had. I shook my head to clear it,
"That was my Grandma." I looked at Rachel, "What did she mean?"
"Your brothers aren't dead."
A low protective growl came loose from my throat. I swear, if my brothers hurt her in anyway, shape, or form, I'm going to kill them.
I watched as Sai paced the room. Body wise, she still looked like Kim, but her eyes had darkened to her emerald green, instead of Kim's olive/leaf green. Her hair was also a bit darker in color, now it looked more red then orange. Lastly, she had grown a few inches. It was strange to see Shego in Kim's body, but the signs where there and it pained me to see my friend like this. She had never asked for it in the first place.
The punishment she had received for what she had done wasn't right, everyone knew it at the time, but we couldn't appose the men at that point in time. The kicker was that she hadn't done anything wrong to warrant the punishment in the first place. Her older brother and father were furious with her because of something she had no control over.
Her heritage.
I was brought back to reality when I felt Monique wince next to me. Sai was muttering on about how unfair it all was, with the occasional curse thrown in with it. I pulled Monique into my arms and held her close.
"Sh, love. She needs time."
"I know. I feel so bad, so useless."
"There was nothing you could've done. Fate has a weird way of going about things. I know. She's pulled plenty of pranks on me over the years." I whispered in her ear, nibbling on the edge of it gently. She relaxed into my arms and we stood there for a few hours, letting Sai calm down.
She wasn't in the right state of mind to hear that her 'father' was alive too.
Ok, mental note to self. Heed Shego's warnings in the future. I have no idea what happened, but as it is, I'm standing in a room filled with weapons; without a body.
When everything had happened, I had closed my eyes to bear through it. When I opened them again, I was here, completely confused as to why. The room was dark, and it looked to have been night outside. The only reason I knew there was weapons in here was from the glow one candle had cast onto a wall. It had been enough to see the sharp point of a blades tip.
"I see you've finally made it. About time." The snarky comment made me turn around, where two tall males where walking in. They looked the same, features wise, but one was bulkier then the other; with a slight pale blue complexion.
Hego.
"Well sorry I took so long then. You know how things are, can't travel at the sound of speed when you need to." I stated, my tone cold.
"Oh do shut up. You're annoying." Hego stated.
I couldn't help the small chuckle that came out, "Just like your sister..."
That froze them both to their spots, and sneer plastered on their faces.
"She is no sister of mine!"
"Nor is she my daughter!"
I stood silently and watched as they lit more candles. They came to stand in front of me, looking me over. I wasn't in the mood to deal with them; my head hurt, my eyes felt like they were about to bleed, and I couldn't feel any part of my body.
"You know. I would say, 'take a picture' but I don't think I would show up as a ghost."
"Oh, you're not dead. We messed with the jewels in that basement. We knew Saiem would eventually try to find away out. We wanted to be prepared. Anyone who tries to help her will be ripped from their body, leaving it in the same state as Saiem's own."
"Mm. Yes. Well, one down fall to your little plan. I was wearing her necklace. If what you say is true, then she's in control of my body as of right now. I might not know much about her, but she's probably going to come here and kick your asses."
"She doesn't know we're alive."
"Ah, but I bet Rachel does."
The growls were enough to make me smirk. Shego's become a bad influence on me, I swear. I watched in silence again as they stood in a corner, murmuring about what they could do. Eventually, I think they figured it out, because they came back over to me and sat at the table next to me.
"We're going to kill your body." her father stated, "She might be in control of it, but she doesn't have her powers back."
Ok, that I'm going to stay quiet on. I don't want them knowing that there's a possibility that she can use them since Rachel placed my blood on the necklace.
"Then she can't kill us for what we did."
"Ok. This I have to ask about, what do you mean?"
"I'm not telling you."
"Well, why not? If I'm going to be dead soon, what's the point?"
"I'm not telling you."
I sighed softly and turned away from them to look at the room. After a while they left the room. I was tempted to see if I could get out of the room, but I highly doubt I'll be able to find my way around.
"They sentenced her to her state because of her heritage."
I spun around to see a tall male standing in the corner.
"Mego...?"
"So you know who we all are?"
"I have dreams from Shego's past."
"Well, how do you know its Mego then?"
"Pale purple tint."
"Fair enough." He murmured, "Ok, look. I don't really care for my sister; She's a cold bitch. But I don't like my father or older brother either. So I'm going to tell you what they wont."
I nodded, "Ok."
'They don't like her. Years before she was born, an Angel gave father a warning. They told him that if he wasn't careful, he would be over thrown by his own blood, his own daughter. The Angel had also told him that though she shares some looks with him, she is not his. She is unique. She is a mixed breed."
"Her father was an angel, wasn't he?"
"Yes." He looked around, and then sat at the table, "She is, in her own right, a ruler."
"How so?"
"Mother was the next in line to rule her clan. Father is the current ruler of both his and hers because they were together. He wanted to keep control, so he faked a crime and blamed it on her. Since she was a slave, she couldn't really fight back. I remember sitting there with the twins, watching her be whipped. She never screamed out, she wasn't the type to give others the pleasure of hearing her pain. As part of the punishment, she was given a sentence to live the rest of eternity in a necklace, while her body was put in stasis."
"So she's like that because her 'father' didn't want to be over-thrown?"
"Yes, he also ordered mothers death to be on the safe side."
I was seeing red. In a fit of anger, and being scared, a woman who had done nothing to him was put in a necklace. Oh, he was so dead the first chance I get to touch him.
Mego sat with me for another hour, chatting, asking me how Shego was. He kept expressing how he didn't really care, but I could see a little concern reflected in his eyes. I told him little, not wanting to give away too much, he might not be like his father, but I still didn't trust him yet. The door opening again made him shrink on instinct and hide under the table. I turned and watched as the twins walked down the stairs.
"So, when do we get to help Sai kick dad's ass?"
I laughed loudly, grinning.
"I can't believe you did that." I stated, sitting down on the couch in Rachel's living room. I watched as Monique stood in front of my friend. She was demanding that Rachel remove her shirt so she could see the wound Rach had received on our way out of my home.
I was grateful she had given me time to relax, I really needed it. I feel weird being in Kim's body, but I plan on getting her back soon, so I'll just have to bear through it. I swear though, if my brothers did anything to Kimmie, they would be begging me to end their lives by the time I got through with them.
"Damn it! Rachel, shut up and do as I say."
I turned my attention back to the two lovebirds in front of me. Monique had success in getting Rachel's top off, but now Rach was refusing to let Monique touch the wound.
"No. You don't have to do this."
"What part of 'shut up' don't you get? You got that wound because you were protecting me, let me at least bandage it for you."
They continued to argue, even though Rachel relaxed and let Monique fix her up. She had gotten a wound from one of the Hell Hounds that had been put on watch around my home. It had seen Monique and lunged, Rachel had jumped in its path; receiving a nicely sized bite to her shoulder and neck. She had beet it senseless, and had continued walking as if nothing had happened. Once we were at a reasonable distance, I had tapped into her powers to help me flash us back here. From there it went into Monique throwing a tantrum and demanding that Rachel explain why she had done what she did.
"I can't believe you did that." I stated again, a chuckle coming loose.
"Oh, shut up Sai. You would have done the same for Kim."
"That is entirely besides the point." I responded, "You see, had I done the same, Kim would have beet me senseless before 'patching' me up again."
Rachel grumbled, then whimpered when she felt Monique pour Peroxide onto her wounds. I held back my laugh and went into the room Kim had been using.
I'm only going to admit this to you... Ok? Because honestly, if Rachel found out, I would be teased to death.
I love Kim.
I don't know why or how it happened, but I do. Right now, though, I needed to be close to her. I might be in her body, but it wasn't enough. I laid down on the bed and nuzzled into the pillow she had been using. It was enough to let me relax and fall into a deep sleep.
"Ow! Monique!"
"Oh hush."
I whimpered again as I felt her tighten the bandages around my shoulder and neck. When she was done, she moved to put everything away. I watched as she came back and straddled my lap, wrapping her arms around my neck and nuzzling into my chest.
"Baby...?" I whispered, holding her close.
"Hm?"
"What's wrong now?"
"I feel bad."
"Don't worry, I'll be fine, and we'll find Kim soon."
"I don't like seeing you get hurt."
I nodded and carefully stood up, still holding her in my arms. She protested that I shouldn't be lifting her, but I ignored her and took her to my room. I laid us both down in my bed and pulled the covers over us.
"Rach..."
"Shh, get some sleep baby. I'll be right here when you wake up."
She murmured something and nuzzled closer, eventually falling asleep. I spent the next few hours watching her before for falling asleep as well. It was the first time in a long time that I had a pleasant dream.
A/N: Sorry it took a while for this chapter as well. My muse has been running off on me and coming back at random moments. The down fall to this is the fact that I'm asleep when she shows up to say hi, so by the time I get to typing, most of what I thought of is gone.
Yeah... I'm gonna have a word with her the next time I see her.
I know Mego is a lot more self-centered in the show, but I wanted to express that only Shego's father and older brother really hate her.
Hope you enjoyed. ^^
