For three months Shego had done as she'd said she would, sending quick messages to Kim, letting her know where she was, how she was doing, etc. Kim would reply, but Shego refused to answer any other questions the redhead might ask.
And then things changed.
Shego stopped sending any IMs, and Kim was left in the dark.
Every day that passed since Shego's last message left the redhead confused. Where'd her arch-foe gone to? Was she ok? Had something gone wrong? Would she ever come back?
Questions plagued her day after day, and when six months had passed since she last saw the green skinned woman, she finally decided to do something about it.
She pulled out her Kimmunicator and said, "Hey Wade, I need you to do something for me."
"What's up Kim?"
"Track down Shego."
Wade looked at her warily and asked, "Is… something wrong?"
"Just do it."
The computer genius shrugged, "Sure, I'll get back to you within an hour."
"Thanks. You rock Wade."
She sighed as she got up off her couch and went to make some lunch. She needed something to busy herself while she waited for a response. With a sandwich in hand she plopped back down on the couch, flipping on the TV to the news channel.
There was the usual, traffic on this highway, a car crash on another. The next few days were going to be sunny, and then there'd be a thunderstorm to ruin the streak. It all seemed to be what was on the news every day.
Sometimes there'd be mention of a serial killer, or a possible suspect in some sort of case, but those were solved by the regular police. Kim had once offered to help with those problems, but she was in such high demand it took a toll on her and she had to stop.
When her thoughts started to drift, her Kimmunicator went off.
She scrambled for it and quickly turned it on, "What's the sitch Wade?"
"Well… I don't know how to say this… but she's off the grid. The last place she used a computer was somewhere in Europe. Her jet left from an airport in France and was heading towards Africa when it was last spotted. I'm still searc-"
He continued to talk, but Kim's attention was pulled towards the TV and she slowly turned Wade so he could see the screen, and he stopped talking.
"In other news, there was a black and green jet found in the jungles of Africa with no sign of its pilot. We have reason to believe that this jet belonged to the criminal Shego. Evidence supports that it has not been touched by anything but wildlife for the past two months at least. A search has been started to either apprehend the woman or at least discover what's happened to her. Our next story-"
As soon as they switched to a new topic, Kim's mind blocked the TV and all her thoughts were on Shego.
"Kim…" came Wade's voice from the Kimmunicator.
"Y-Yeah?" she asked, slowly being pulled from her trance.
"I have a ride coming for you. Do you want me to tell Ron?"
Kim slowly shook her head. "I think… I'll go this one alone."
"Be careful Kim. Keep me posted."
"Yeah… thanks Wade." She practically sprinted up to her room and prepared her things. She had no clue how long she'd be gone, but she knew she had to find the green-skinned woman, she just had to.
As she heard the chopper outside, she locked her door and headed out. Once inside, she called Monique, telling her that she'd be gone for a while. Her best friend had seen the news and was devastated.
"Kim… I know that you want to do this alone, but… I think I should come to," Monique said.
"What? I can't bring you on a dangerous mission like this!"
"Look, you need me more than you think. Ok, so I'm probably not as useful as Ron, but like it or not, I actually thought Shego wasn't that bad. She may not seem like the nicest person, but I still think of her as a good acquaintance. There is no way that I'm just sitting around while my best friend goes looking for her. I don't know when I'll hear from you again if you do that!"
Kim sighed. If this kept going, she knew Monique would stop trying to be logical and just use some underhanded way to get Wade to do her some favors.
"Fine, we'll swing by and pick you up in ten."
"Good," Monique smirked.
They hung up so Monique could get ready.
Kim turned to the pilot and asked, "Can you stop by some place first? I need to pick up a friend."
"Of course Ms. Possible," the pilot smiled. He turned the chopper towards another residential neighborhood a few blocks down.
Monique was standing outside in mission clothes. Kim dropped down a rope ladder and her friend started climbing up immediately.
When she was in the helicopter, Monique said, "Now then, let's go find ourselves a villain."
Kim smiled slightly. Truth be told, she was glad Monique was there. If she'd asked Ron he'd go through the 'She's EVIL' notion and they wouldn't get anywhere, but she didn't actually want to go alone.
"Ok Mo, let's do this," she grinned.
Author's Note: Ok, I just have something really quick to say. This is the latest chapter that I've written so I may not have anything new to post tomorrow. DO NOT WORRY. I will continue writing this one... HELL, i'm fucking ecstatic to continue! I finally know where I'm going next with this story! It's quite a good feeling. I just don't know if I'll get around to typing up the next chapter today. So, bear with me and know that I am not done with this yet! Thank you, and do enjoy ;)
