Chapter 14 - Flashing Back - Part II
"So there I was, walking with Ron before lunchtime!" Kim said before continuing the flashback.
(Still in the canon timeline, 30 minutes before lunch)
Ron was now walking with Kim with a barrel over the 'new jeans' his mom bought him. They were girly jeans from Club Banana Jr.
"It was bad enough that I lost my pants, Kim, but I now have ripped a hole in my shirt too!" the blonde complained about a hole in the back of his shirt.
He continued bemoaning, "KP, I just have that awful feeling that days are going from bad to worse!"
"Cheer up, Ron!" Kim said with an upbeat grin on her bright face "Maybe some chimmeritos at Bueno Nacho would make you feel better!"
"You're right, Kim!" Ron agreed when he got to his locker "Diablo sauce aways perks me up when I'm down."
But just as Ron opened up his locker, his eyes bulged in fear, looking at a furry stuffed animal.
"M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m..."
"Oh no...not this sitch again..." Kim bemoaned. She knew what this meant.
"MONKEY! Get it away! Get it away from me!" Ron complained as the stuffed monkey covered his face. Passing students laughted at the poor kid as he collaped on the floor sobbing.
"I got monkey germs all over me!" he whined like a helpless puppy.
"Whoa! Whoa!" Ken said, interruping her again with a snicker.
"Agent Trepid...what is it this time!" Kim snarked, rolling her eyes.
"Agent Stoppable was...afraid of a stuffed animal that looks like a monkey?" Ken giggled a little. "And yet, he has the Mystical Monkey Power?"
"He had severe monkey issues stretching back to one infamous summer at Camp Wannaweep!" Kim said, "So stop laughing at him, Agent Trepid, or I will have Dr. Director write you up!"
Ken stopped his laughing and allowed his fellow comrade to continue her story.
"So I put the stuffed monkey, which was a Mr. Chimpy Monkey, into my backpack, wondering who it belonged to and I was about to meet Bonnie when..."
Linda, the blue sweatered girl as she was called, was being bullied by two muscular jocks on the football team, Crystal and Jessica. They were tossing around her purse in a game of 'Keep-Away'
"Hey! Give that back to me!" Linda complained,
"No way, little girlie!" the first jock bully mocked her as he tossed the bag to Jessica.
Jess grabbed the lipstick from her purse "Crys! I got the lipstick!" and then tossed that to Crystal.
"I got her makeup too!" Crystal smirked, nabbing the makeup and tossed the purse to the second jock bully.
"I call dibbs on her eyeliner!" Jess proclaimed as all four of them heard a voice.
"What's going on?" came the voice of Kim in the hallway with curiosity.
All four of the pre-teens stopped tossing the bag around and froze in place. Jess was the one who has Linda's purse.
"What's it to you, little doll!" the second jock bully taunted her.
"How about a trip to the principal's office?" Kim threatened the bullies
"Who's even this wannabe girl!" Jess snarled before Crystal whispered in her eyes.
"That's Kim Possible! She's the new kid!" Crystal whispered in Jess's ear.
"So what?!" Jess whispered back, "Let's teach this punk a lesson!"
Crystal explained, still whispering "So what? Jess, that girl is what Her Majesty wants in our circle! We gotta play it cool, 'kay?"
"Fine..." Jess muttered.
Jess then clapped her hands and said, "Guys, move on from us for now!" The two jocks then left.
Crystal then came with a response to Kim's threat to sending them to the principal's office "That...um...won't be necessary, Miss...uhh...Possible!
"Wait...how did you know my name?" Kim questioned raising her eyebrow.
Crystal came up with an explanation off the top of her head, "We've heard about...your...uhh...competitions!"
"Ohhh!" Kim understood, "You mean my competitive cheer routines? Yeah! Were they spankin'?
Jess nervously nodded her head, "Yes! They were totally!"
"Gee! Thanks!" Kim complimented,
Crystal then said to Jess, "I think we should go to the caf!"
"Yeah..." Jess replied, rubbing her stomach, "That mystery meat should be good for my carbs." She also then dropped Linda's purse to the floor as she and Crystal ran towards the direction of the cafeteria.
Linda's hands were trembling. She was unable to come up with a sentence.
"Are you...are you...
"Okay?" Kim wondered, "Actually yeah! I'm headed to the caf."
"No!" Linda said, "I mean, are you one of them?"
"One of who?" Kim asked.
"The cheerleaders!" Linda came up with the answer.
Kim explained her cheer background, "I was in an all-star squad for a couple of years, but not on any school squad!"
Linda just simply looked at her, screamed at the top of her lungs and ran away in the hallways, as far away from Kim as she could. Kim could only look on in bewilderment. "What's gotten into her?"
Not long after that, she continued her trek to the cafeteria when she saw another muscular bully giving a 17-year old version of Ned a wedgie. The same bully then dunked him in a nearby trash can while laughing at his predictament.
The bully then left Ned there to be with discarded chicken bones and used candy wrappers.
Kim came to his aid and asked, "Hey, mister, are you OK?"
Ned's head popped out the trash with a browned-out banana peel stuck to his hair.
"I'm alright. That's absolutely the last time that I will tutor them!
"Tutor who?" Kim wondered.
"Bullies..." Ned grunted "...I can't stand 'em!"
"What did that guy even do to you?" Kim asked.
"Actually, he wasn't the one I was tutoring." Ned said while wiping off the garbage. "I was tutoring one of the blonde cheerleaders. She mistakenly thought that I insulted her hair, so she got one of the bullies and...you know the rest."
"Yeesh!" Kim exclaimed.
"I must warn you, young girl, you shouldn't join the cheer squad! They're evil! EEEEEEEVIL!" Ned warned her about the girls that Kim was encoutering.
"Now, if you must, I must be at Bueno Nacho!"
Kim had a frightened and scared look on her face.
"That was when I noticed that something was off about the cheer squad. But I still didn't know what."
Five minutes later, Kim continued onto her trek to the cafeteria. All of a sudden, she saw Tara, Liz and Hope shoving Penny out of the girls' restroom.
"But..." Penny complained, "...this bathroom is for all students!"
"Not anymore, nitwit!" Hope snarked, "This restroom is for cheerleaders only!" She then slammed the bathroom door on Penny!"
All Penny could do was just sigh in defeat as Kim came up to her.
"What's gotten you torqued?" Kim asked.
"Cheerleaders are hogging the girls' bathroom!" Penny explained.
"Don't get why they're so possessive about it!" Kim replied.
"Most of the time, students use the restroom for one to three minutes tops." Penny said, "These girls hog it for at least 45."
"I haven't seen any of those things in my all-star cheer group!" Kim responded.
Penny looked at her in surprise and said, "You haven't even experienced your first full day in middle school yet! The cheerleaders, not the adults, run the school."
Kim looked at her watch and gasped, "Sorry! I'd love to chat, but I hear my stomach eating itself.
"As I was headed towards the caf, I met up with Bon-Bon and decided to ask her about the three incidents I witnessed."
Kim then met up with Bonnie, whom was holding her lunchbox.
"Hey, Kim! Ready to get grub?" she asked, opening the cafeteria doors.
"Figure I'm going to get some spaghetti. You?" Kim questioned.
Bonnie then saw the infamous Middleton High mystery meat drums stacked behind the cafeteria lady.
She gave a look of disgust and said, "Acutally, I brought my lunch!" and showed Kim what she brought: baloney and cheese sandwich, carrots, pudding, and milk.
Recalling all the incidents that involved the girls on the cheer squad, Kim then suggested, "Bonnie, I gotta ask ya one question!"
Bonnie replied, "Ask away."
"I witnessed a couple of bullying incidents earlier that involved some of your cheerleaders. Is this how they normally act to other students?"
Bonnie gasped with surprise...but it was a fake gasp...and exclaimed.
"Whay?! Pfft...of course not!"
"If you say so." Kim said, not knowing the real cause of the deceipt.
"I'm going to sit at that table with Tara and the other cheerleaders. You're welcome to come with!" the brunette said while pointing to a table right next to a water spot with a CAUTION-WET FLOOR sign right next to it.
"No big, Bonnie!" Kim said, smiling at her newfound 'friend', "I'll see ya in a few and introduce you to my best friend!"
"Coolness!" Bonnie grinned while crossing her fingers behind her back.
