Chapter 11 – The Ritual

Kim and Shego were left in the dungeon for long enough to discuss the plan and enough to talk about things they never had a real chance to discuss. The night was about to change into a day, but they could not care less. The first rays of sun were beginning to touch the mountain while the women were still staring at each other lovingly whilst talking.

"Shego?" Kim asked curiously after a while of silence.

"Yeah?"

"I just wanted to apologize." Red-head said with remorse in her voice.

"Apologize? For what?" Demonic companion asked in surprise.

"For kicking you into that tower. If something will go wrong I want you to know that I am really sorry."

"Don't be! I played you nicely, though I didn't mean to. I was just doing my job. I don't mind. Anyway it wasn't that bad. Except for a really bad hair day." Shego replied with a faint smile. "I should be apologizing. I was supposed to protect you for all those years and it wasn't once that I really kicked you badly." Green skinned woman added.

"It wasn't that bad. Babysitting my brothers was far worse." Younger female replied with a smile. She wondered what had come over her to start apologizing. It was a bit humiliating in her taste. She was dragged away from her thoughts when she hears familiar footsteps behind the door.

"Good morning, ladies." Ron said as he entered the room. He came closer to inspect Shego. He did not want to show his shock when he discovered that greenish female had no signs of whipping from the previous night. He heard the noises of the torture, so why there were no signs on the body? He quickly turned his attention toward Kim. "Changed your mind?" He asked. "Or did you like yesterday's show?" Ron taunted his ex-friend.

"Don't hurt her!" Kim replied with anger in her voice.

"So you will unite with me?" He asked.

"As long as you will not hurt her." Red-head replied. She looked deeply into Shego's emerald eyes. I hope your plan will work, Kim thought. Shego just smiled like she was able to read red-head's mind.

"I won't… well, not so much…"

"As I will hurt you." Shego interrupted blonde man's speech. "Hey Buffoon!" She yelled to get his attention. "Weren't you supposed to have a master or something?"

"First of all, I am no Buffoon! Second of all, Monkey Fist was no longer useful to me." Ron replied and both females just looked at each other in surprise.

"Care to explain? You seriously make no sense." Shego said to the man.

"Well… you will not live long enough to share that information so I think I can tell you." He has begun as he sat down on the ground to tell his story. "I needed him to find and translate for me the prophecy. When he became useless I turned him back to the stone from which I saved him. And now I will save the world from the evil by uniting with Kimberley." He said and Shego's eyes were wide opened from shock. Shego turned her head to Ron and growled at him.

"Two protectors of one power will be righteous prover. If united with blue prowler they shall not fight for Earth, and Evil will rebirth from the soul girth." Evil woman growled demonically.

"What was that?" Ron asked halting his laughter.

"That was the prophecy you are willing to fulfill you 'blue prowler'!" Kim yelled at the man. "How could've I been so blind." She wondered as she finally understood the prophecy's meaning. Ron was the man who was supposed to wake up the Evil.

"That is meaningless. Tonight we will be united and that is end of the story, Kimberley. Deal with it." He said with anger and exited the room. Kim looked at Shego with eyes wide open.

"How long did you know about it?" Kim asked with disbelief.

"Just as long as I've been dead." Shego replied with a smile.

"Wait! So you weren't speaking metaphorically about being dead?"

"Doy. No heart beat proves that." Evil woman replied.

"So that what all those voices in my dream meant. 'You make the dead come alive'…" Kim was interrupted.

"Woman! Listen! There is no way in hell I will let you go, so stop worrying about your dreams." Shego said loudly. "I already did put my soul on stake for you, so I'm not planning to let go right now, so chill." She added. Kim's eyes have begun watering. She tried to move closer to Shego in her chains, but with no luck. Suddenly the doors were opened again. The female ninja entered the room with a small box in her hands.

"I'm here to prepare you, Kim Possible." Yori said in soft hypnotized voice.

Meanwhile in GJ HQ

Betty was currently planning the attack on the Kabru Mountain. She did not care about the magic that was protecting that place. She did not want to risk losing any of her friends.

Ann was preparing medical unit. She used Drakken's technology with a help of Ed and her husband to create best healing device there could be. It was an injection of nanobots that would enter the body and heal a person. She just hoped she will not have to use it. It was still experimental, so she was not sure of the effects of the injection. Suddenly Ed's phone went of.

"Yeah. Seriously. Sure. Seriously." He said to the phone and ended the conversation. "We have fifteen minutes, seriously." He said to Ann and James. Both Possibles packed quickly all of the equipment. They volunteered on this action, because they wanted to help their daughter. They used to like Ron in the past, but now it was too personal. They will not allow him to win and hurt their daughter.

Betty prepared her troops. Wade said clearly that she will not need any military forces, but she could not help herself. She wanted to be prepared just in case.

"We're ready to take off." Agent Du reported.

"Good. Wait for Possibles and than go." Betty ordered. They did not have to wait much longer, because Possibles were running toward the plane as fast as they could.

Back to Kabru Mountain

Kim was prepared to the ceremony by Yori. She was now chained to the wall in her white dress. She could not think that she will have to go through this. She just wanted Shego to get away from that terrible place.

"You look beautiful." Evil woman spoke with a smile. She tried to make Kim smile, but with no luck. "Just don't be afraid when I'll come for you." She added and the doors were opened once again.

"I guess you will not be doing that." Young man said. "You will be busy suffering tortures while I will be marrying my beautiful bride." He added and Shego sent him deadly glare. Yori entered the room just as Stoppable finished his speech. Ron took Kim away to begin the ritual. "In one hour we will be together forever, so cheer up already." He added and exited the room with the red-head.

Shego looked at the ninja who was supposed to torture her during the ritual. It would seem like Yori begun fighting with the spell. She had a lot of hesitation in her tortures. Shego felt pain returning to her back. What is with the Buffoon and whips?, Shego thought. It was all so pathetic.

"Yori, you don't have to do this." Green skinned woman said with her jaws clenched tightly as she felt the pain spreading through her body.

"I… have to." Yori mumbled, but her hand stopped for a second. She grabbed her head and dropped the whip. "I… can't!" She yelled as she was forcing the hypnotizing spell away.

"Wade." Shego whispered. "How do I stop the ritual?" She asked the boy. It's time to get rid of those chains, she thought. Emerald eyed woman ignited her hands at the full power and the chains simply melted. She changed her hand into evil claw and ripped off the chains that held her feet.

"You just have to step into the beam of moonlight and kiss Kim." Wade replied.

"That's it?" Shego asked in surprise while she was getting rid of the remains of chains.

"Well… she must be willing to do it." Young genius added. "Better hurry." He added and he did not have to say it twice. Shego left Yori in the cell, while she came to the door. She turned them to ash and exited the room. The evil woman knew where she had to go. She remembered the way when she was brought in. She tried to control herself to have an advantage of her new powers when they were needed. She entered the room prepared for the ritual.

"Hey! Monkey Boy!" She yelled when she noticed that the moonlight was already entering the room. "Get off her." She said as she noticed that he held Kim close.

"You don't know when to give up." Ron said with angry voice. He left Kim behind and stepped forward to get rid of a troublesome pest. "This time I will make sure that you're dead." He said and jumped forward at Shego in monkey style. Said woman just dodged the attack, but not entirely. Somehow Ron managed to land a kick on her stomach. She did not see it coming, but now she was flying across the room into the wall. Shego was not prepared for this. She looked around and noticed that Kim was probably hypnotized, because she was staring at Shego with blank eyes. That made the evil woman even angrier. She ignited her hands and attacked the young man with all she had. She did not want to use all of her powers. At least not yet.

Shego was trying to land a punch or kick at the blonde, but he was too fast for her. She was feeling anger growing quickly inside her.

"You can not win." Ron spoke finally. "It is just impossible." He added and grabbed a familiar sword. "I will kill you. Again. And I will do it once again if I will have to." He growled and threw himself toward Shego. Said woman decided that it was about time to use her new powers. *Bite like a bulldog to the bone and never let go, Shego thought. Oh, she was furious. Her hands have changed into demonic claws, her eyes retrieved carbon black color and diabolic wings grew from her back.

"You're so dead, Monkey Boy." She growled in husky, double voice. She has heard his heart changing the beat. He was panicking right now. That only made Shego grin with her fangs. She ignited her whole body with plasma and jumped forward. She flew toward the blonde and grabbed him. She flew with him up to the opening in the ceiling. She looked deeply into his panicking eyes. "It's time to pay." She growled at him.

The sky was jet-black. The moon was the only source of light enlightening surrounding mountains that were covered in deep snow. Shego flapped her wings and kept starring into Stoppable's eyes. Ron was screaming his lungs out. He did not expect Shego to be a Demon ascended from Hell.

"Let me go!" He shouted at woman.

"I will eat your soul." She growled back and dove back to the temple. Shego landed right in front of the altar and still hypnotized Kim. Ron kept screaming in Shego's claws. Evil woman showed her fangs and took a deep bite into Stoppable's neck. She chew of his throat and dropped the young man back to the floor. She stared at his death in agony of pain. Shego landed delicately next to his corpse and looked at Kim. The beam of moonlight was shining directly at the red-head. It's time, Shego thought. She took step closer toward Kim, who was shaking her head energetically.

"What happened?" Red-head muttered. The effect of hypnotism was wearing off. Kim looked at the shadow in front of her. It was very difficult to see anything because, she was blinded by the moonlight.

"You were hypnotized." The shadowy figure answered in husky voice. Shego took another step forward. Her eyes were still carbon black staring intensively at Kim. She heard red-head's heart beat quickly. Younger female has noticed Shego's true form. Greenish woman's face was covered in blood along with her teeth. Her claws were demonically long and wings on her back were completing the diabolic picture. Shego took step back, because she did not want to scare Kim.

"Don't leave me." Red-head pleaded in soft voice. Shego looked at her lover in surprise. The moonlight slowly begun to disappear from the altar. Kim has noticed it and quickly grabbed Shego's claw and pulled her closer with all her might. Evil creature did not think twice. She just closed the distance between herself and the young red-head and kissed her lovingly.

Kim was surprised by the action, but not scared. She waited for that loving kiss for the last five days. She ignored the taste of blood on her tongue. She could not care less even that it was a blood of a person who was supposed to be her friend. Kim pulled Shego's body closer as the kiss changed from a loving one to a one full of lust and heat. The green power erupted from the females and exited through the opening in the ceiling. The Himalayas turned completely green for a quarter of a second. Within the blink of an eye Kim and Shego were separated by the powerful energy apparently coming from the moon. Kim fell back on the floor and watched how Shego was trapped in the beam of lunar light. She screamed in pain and Kim could not do anything but watch.

Shego felt an unbearable pain in all of her body. At first she felt how wings disappeared and it was just a painful as someone would cut them off. Her hand felt like someone would brake them when her claws begun to disappear. Her body was slowly lowering to the floor in front of the altar. She was kneeling and holding her head in her hands, because she was afraid that it might explode. Her fangs have begun disappearing and her eyes begun turning emerald again. She kept screaming and Kim could hear how the double husky voice turned back to normal. The red-head got up and begun walking slowly toward her love. Shego's body was lifted delicately from the ground and the lunar beam of light disappeared from the room taking Shego's evil form with it. As the light disappeared Shego fell down, but Kim caught her just in time.

"Shego." Red-head whispered whilst touching Shego's face with care. Kim hugged greenish body tightly. "No…" younger female whispered when she noticed that Shego still lacks a heart beat. "You promised…" She continued whispering and began rocking backwards and forward with still warm body in her arms. Kim heard footsteps in the corridor. She has noticed Betty with the rest of GJ and her own parents. She did not look at them at all. She continued hugging dead woman. Kim held her ear on Shego's chest. After a long while she heard something disturbing. A loud pound. The body begun to stir in red-head's arms.

"And I don't break my promises…" Green skinned ex-villain whispered with her trademark mischievous smirk on her face.

"Shego!" Kim yelled at the woman and she held her even tighter. "You're alive!"

"Sure I am." Shego answered with a smile. "But I won't be if you'll keep squeezing me like that." She added sarcastically.

Betty looked at her friend in young arms. She felt joy and happiness filling her heart. She looked at Possibles. They were relieved to know that their daughter was not only fine, but also happy. GJ Commander looked around the temple. She has noticed the dead body of Ron Stoppable. He deserved it, one eyed woman thought.

"Let's get the two of you to the Headquarters." Betty said with smile. Shego got up with the help of Kim.

"I don't think so." Ex-villainess replied. "We had the deal." She added with a grin on her face and begun walking toward the exit.

Flashback

Betty was sitting in Kim's room with Shego, who definitely was not pleased with her company.

"So…" One-eyed woman has begun. "Are we gonna be over with it or you'd prefer not to talk to me at all?"

"You know my answer." Shego snorted at her ex-friend.

"So just listen. I have a power to make you free. I just need to be sure that you will not be endangering anyone." Betty has begun. "Stick with GJ for a while and then you will be able to go free."

"What's the catch?" Shego asked. She knew that Betty will not let her go so easily. Not after all of those years of chasing.

"You have to do some apologizing and you have to be watched by one of my agents all of the time." One eyed woman said.

"Forget about the first one and I don't think that any of your agents will be able to stick with me for longer than one hour with no burns." Ex-villainess said.

End of flashback

"Since I have fulfilled my part of the deal now it's your turn." Shego said with a bright smile on her face. "If you'll need us we'll be taking some time off GJ in my house." She added and left the temple with Kim by her side.

"You have a house?" Kim asked in surprise.

"Oh, yeah. And you will love it." Shego said in cocky voice as they continued their way to Shego's plane which was well hidden next to the village at the bottom of the mountain.

"She's impossible." Betty said to herself. She dragged her all troops and best doctors for nothing. Now she regretted that she did not listen to Wade. She could have taken only Possibles and Ed. That would be so much easier.

"Actually I have the strong feeling that because of what happened today she is now Possible." James said with a smile. He was happy for his daughter. Especially that she was not accompanied by any boy, who would definitely end in a black hole sooner or later.

"She definitely is." Ann agreed with her husband. "It was fate. Since the moment you found her." She added towards her husband.

Shego's house – Two days later

Both Kim and Shego did not hear from GJ since the situation in Nepal. They were both very pleased with it. Apparently Kim loved Shego's house. Big, spacious, wooden building set in the Rocky Mountains was the best place to escape from the world for a while. Shego managed to provide there everything from food to all newest DVDs.

"How do you feel today?" Kim asked as she entered Shego's bedroom in the morning. She did not sleep with the other woman since Nepal because Shego was still recovering. She felt weak from the loss of extra power, but she was recovering quite quickly as for a person who lost a Demonically Evil power.

"How do I look?" Shego answered with a question.

"Drop dead gorgeous, my Demon." Kim replied with a smile as she sat down on the bed next to Shego.

"You liked me when I was evil?" Shego asked with a curious smile. She did not wait for a response; she just grabbed Kim on her waist and pulled her under the covers and begun kissing her deeply. "Let me show you evil." Shego added and continued her actions.

Betty returned to the Global Justice only to clean up after Kim and Shego. Ron's body was prepared for funeral. Yamanuchi ninjas were released from the spell and returned safely to Japan to rebuild their school, which was destroyed by Ron himself. Betty feared that there were still dangers awaiting Kim and Shego. They managed to get rid of most dangerous criminals, but there were still others, who wanted to harm the duo. For now she just wanted to let those two rest and enjoy each other's company in a peaceful mountain house. But only for now.

Author's notes: That's 11th and I am afraid that last chapter. I hope that I satisfied your curiosity. At least for now. I might continue in a sequel, but now I have to pack by bags, because I will be leaving the country soon. As well as I have a Real World Alarm (RWA), which means that I have to get out of my imaginary world for a bit. Please review. If you enjoyed this story I will definitely continue in a sequel.
