"Nukpana, is it?" Mr. Possible raised an eyebrow, trying to pronounce her name right. Although the situation called for seriousness, she couldn't resist chuckling inwardly at how he butchered her name.

They had all just sat down for a late dinner. Dr. Possible had explained to her husband about the sleeping arrangements. However, she neglected to mention Nukpana's pregnancy. Nukpana stabbed a piece of chicken with her fork, eating it before answering, "Yes sir."

"Very odd eye color you have there." He leaned forward, studying the said red eyes. Nukpana tried her hardest not to laugh at how he studied her. "So explain this whole…monkey thing to me again."

Before his daughter could reply, the Egyptian explained, "I'm currently seven months pregnant with the child of one of Kim's arch enemy, Monkey Fist AKA Monty Fiske. About….three or four months ago, he disappeared and we believe that he was taken prisoner. So, I am staying here until I either have the child or find Monty."

There was a long pause of silence. It was obvious to the young adults that Dr. Possible hadn't told Mr. Possible the first part. Would he get mad? Would he freak out like Ron did?

"Hm…just be careful." He ate some steamed vegetables, lecturing slightly in an eerily calm manner, "I hear those villains are pretty ruthless."

Nukpana and Kim glanced at each other, wondering just how much the man understood. He did realize that Nukpana was basically Monkey Fist's sidekick, didn't he? Or maybe he just ignored that, too shocked about the pregnancy part. Either way, he was calm and that was what mattered.

Towards the end of dinner as they ate some apple pie, Mr. Possible asked, "So…what do you do for a living?"

Nukpana couldn't help but laugh long and hard for the first time in weeks.


The next day, Kim woke up to see Nukpana sleeping peacefully on the cot. Relieved that she hadn't run off, she slipped into the hallway bathroom and showered quickly. They'd have to call Ron soon and get Wade to find Killigan…what time was it anyway?

Nukpana heard the water running from across the house, hearing the pipes creak and groan softly. Her eyes fluttered open and she lay there for a few moments, simply staring up at the ceiling. Subconsciously she was replaying what had happened this past week while consciously…she was just staring up and listening to the sounds around.

Glancing at the clock to the right, she saw that it was a little after ten in the morning. Monty rarely let her sleep that late, having her always get up and train before nine. Once she tricked him into letting her meditate at eight in the morning…she fell asleep. How rare, especially when she had the child, did she sleep so late.

"Morning." Kim walked in, drying her hair with another towel. Sitting up, Nukpana smiled a little.

Raising an eyebrow to the red head's choice of wardrobe, she asked, "Is that what cheer leaders wear?" She was referring to the fact that she had a towel on.

Kim laughed and shook her now damp hair, searching through her closet. "No but I don't know what to wear so I have to switch clothes, see what looks good."

Nukpana blinked and grabbed some clean clothes of her own. "…American girls are so weird." She muttered as she walked into the bathroom, changing quickly. When she stepped out, Kim was wearing a purple shirt and black pants. She glanced down at her over sized blue shirt and blue jeans, feeling really out of place.

"Have you called Wade?" She asked while she brushed her hair.

"Yeah, we have a ride and location of Killigan." Kim replied, also brushing her hair. It was like they were sisters in the mirror or something.

"Is Ron coming?" She questioned casually, placing her black hair into a ponytail.

"Um…" She hesitated. Was he? Perhaps Kim needed a break for now. "No…it would be easier just the two of us." Hopefully this wasn't a mistake.


A golf ball barely missed Nukpana's left ear as it zoomed by with such fierce speed. Her mouth dropped slightly from pure surprise, obviously not having expected that to happen. She dodged another and hid behind the wall, wincing when she heard several explosions.

"I ain't goin' out without a fight!" A Scottish voice echoed in the large room. Nukpana growled softly, placing a hand on her swollen belly.

"We're not here to take you in, fool!" She shouted, risking a glance around the corner. Lucky for her, this had stopped him just in time; the gold club was in mid-swinging motion when he stopped. "We want to know if you have Monkey Fist!"

"Monkey who?" He raised an eyebrow, placing the club down.

Inhaling slowly, she took a tentative step out. "Monkey Fist…The man who has monkey hands and feet…paws." She calmly explained, her heart thumping loudly.

He growled. "Why would I take him?! He'd be pointless to have!"

"So says the man with the skirt." She frowned, obviously annoyed. While she was distracting Killigan, Kim was searching the place in a blur.

Apparently that was the wrong thing to say for he growled, bearing his teeth, and shouted as he swung the gold club, "It's a kilt!"

Nukpana gasped and barely dodged, falling to the ground near by landing on her knees. "Nukpana!" A voice called out. It was Kim. "He's not here! Let's go!"
