Ok so I believe I'm overdue for another chapter. So here it is, as I'm sure you all are glad that Kim is back, now all we have to do is get rid of XeYori and her Xenomorph hive right? Easier said than done my friends. Enjoy this latest chapter and don't forget to leave a comment with your thoughts. Your feedback is very crucial to improving my writing skills.
Ch. 13 Thorn in My Side
XeYori continued to stare at the room, that she was positive held the newly revived Kim Possible. She could not believe that she could still be alive. 'I cut clean through her. There's no possible way that she could be alive.' She thought as she began to seethe with anger. Her focus then turned to Shego. 'Of course! Why didn't I realize this sooner.' She said thinking to herself as she stared at the pale woman. Shego's attention was also focused on the window that Kim was in. This meant that XeYori had the perfect chance to put an end to her meaningless existence.
She thrusted her tail forward hoping to impale her through the heart. Shego sensed her attack coming, she could feel the bloodlust pouring off of the Xenomorph Queen. She caught her tail in her hand without turning in XeYori's direction. She then ignited her plasma as she turned her head to face her. XeYori could see that Shego had found her second wind. She tried to pull her tail free but, Shego's grip was too tight. She yanked on her tail pulling the serpent to her then cocked her arm back as it glowed brighter from the charged plasma. When XeYori was close enough she punched Yori in her gut. She coughed some of her acid blood as she was sent flying back to the opposite tower of the Middleton Hospital. She crashed through the glass into another empty room knocking over hospital beds, and damaging the machinery.
Shego continued to look on into the room as she began charging her plasma for another beam strike. Jacob saw her and called out to her. "Shego Don't! There are innocent people over there! They haven't been evacuated yet!" He shouted.
She looked over to him, then into the sky as she saw four blackhawks fly over head. She then looked out overhead as tanks rolled down the streets. She knew that she had to get everyone out of the hospital and fast, this area was about to become a warzone. She turned and hopped back into the window to see Kim staring right at her. They locked eyes for a moment, before Shego slowly climbed through the window.
"Kimmie." She whispered. The redhead flashed her a smile as she sat in the bed. Shego then ran to her side hugging her. "Thank God, I thought I lost you." she said. She broke the hug and checked to see if Kim's wound had properly healed. She was relieved to see that it did, she just wished it didn't take as long as it did.
"Not even death can stop the great Kim Possible." Shego said with a light smile.
"Well for a while there I was good as dead. I was surrounded by this mist and couldn't see for miles. I'm sure even the Grim Reaper himself tried to claim my soul, but then I saw Mom." She told them.
"You saw Ann?" Her father asked. "How was she? Was she ok?" he asked.
Kim nodded. "She looked better than she ever did. She had this amazing white glow to her. It despelled the darkness and made everything around me clear. The best part was that she wasn't alone." She answered. She looked over to Ron. "I saw Yori there too."
He turned his head. "Yori?"
Kim nodded once more. "She told me to tell you that she misses and loves you."
This made Ron happy. He smiled to know that Yori was still there watching over him. His thoughts began to shift to reality. "What about the Yori that's here with us?" he said pointing his thumb towards the window.
"Yori herself cannot explain it. She said that it was possible that her emotions and longing for you were so strong that they carried over to the Xenomorph inside of her." Kim explained.
"Yeah, yeah, remember when we ran into the Xenomorph that came out of Drakken?" Shego asked.
"Uggh, don't remind me. That was beyond awkweird." she shuddered. "Still that doesn't explain the hatred. Where did all of this hatred come from?" Kim asked.
Ron shrugged his shoulders. "Maybe's it a Xeno thing."
"Uh, maybe now isn't the best time to be discussing this." Jacob said as he stared out of the window.
He looked on to see XeYori step out from the room. Blood dripped from her mouth as it melted through the ground. She wiped the blood from her mouth, and looked at the smeared stain on her hand. Never before has she felt pain like this before. She burned with hatred, hatred for the women who eliminated her previous hive and queen, hatred for the two women who have been a thorn in her side for far too long. She raised her head into the sky and let out a powerful roar. The roar echoed for miles across the city of Middleton. The soldiers and the citizens turned and looked around as the roar seemed to come from out of nowhere.
"Come on, keep it moving, we need these civilians evacuated by 0400 hours." A soldier called out.
They were moving the citizens past the office building when three smashers bursted through the wall of the building. The Xenomorph army had appeared at XeYori's request and began to attack and slaughter the soldiers and civilians as they made their way to the hospital. The blackhawks that flew over the city soon closed in on the Xeno's, spraying the buildings with bullets.
"There is just too many of them." a soldier called out. As he looked down the scope of his rifle.
"Just keep firing soldier!" His Commanding Officer ordered him. He held on tight as the helicopter swerved around killing the serpents that broke through the first barricade of soldiers. He soon caught sight of two Praetorians on the roof of a nearby building. They leapt onto another blackhawk killing the unsuspecting pilot. The helicopter spun out of control and crashed into a building. Fireballs erupted from the building as chunks of metal fell from above either killing more soldiers, Xeno's or both alike

Kim, Shego, and the others were busy helping the others evacuate out of the other side of the hospital away from XeYori. Ron carried Kim on his back, since she was still recovering from the rigimortis.
"Come on people, this way." Shego said as she waved her hand in the air. There were more than one hundred patients and with all the active doctors and nurses as well as the people visiting their loved ones totaled to over three hundred. Thanks to Jacob's quick thinking they were almost done evacuating the hospital when XeYori turned the corner impaling a young man in his chest.
He let out a bloodcurdling scream causing everyone to turn around. The people panicked as they rushed out of the hospital, pushing over people and trampling the helpless. James grabbed Tim and Jim, so they too would not fall victim to the state of the panicked civilians.
Shego flared up as they stared at XeYori. She quickly took a bite out of the man's neck. "Not bad." She said. "Could use more salt." She said before tossing the body to the side.
She licked her lips and stared at Shego. "I bet you'd taste Much sweeter." She smiled evilly.
"Yeah, I'm gonna have to take another pass on that." She said.
XeYori's sights soon drifted over to Kim, who was stationed on Ron's back. "Kim, still alive I see." She said with much disdain in her voice. "Well this time, I'll see to it that rip you all to shreds." She said as she thumped her tail off the ground.
"Why? Why are you doing this?" Ron asked.
"My dear Ron. It was because I was given orders to do so." She clearly answered.
"Orders? By who? You're the queen of the psycho- i mean Xenomorphs." He said laughing nervously.
"By the queen before me. I could hear her last order as clear as day. To kill the fiery red head and green skinned woman. To kill Kim and Shego for the atrocities that were not only committed against her, but the entire hive." She explained. "But."
"But?" Ron asked.
"There is another part of me. That's not completely Xenomorph. The part that is still Yori wants to kill Kim for taking me away from Ron. We were finally getting to connect with another, then the next thing I remember is being left to die by one I used to call friend." She said staring at Ron. The cold stare in her eyes melted. Almost mimicking the look of Yori that Ron remembered. "I remember how Ron protested against leaving me and was willing to stay there with me, but Kim pulled him away. That was the last I thought I would ever see of Ron."
"Yori, you've got it all wrong." Kim said. " I never wanted to leave you, more than anything I wanted to help you." Kim pleaded. " I can still help you, just give me a chance."
The cold stare and hatred in her eyes returned once more. "Lies! As if there was anything you could do to help me now. Besides I have evolved into an even greater form, I am beyond the need for human compassion." She told them.
"That's not true." Ron stated. "You still have Yori's memories and emotions. Her human emotions."
"These "emotions". What good are they if I am Yori. Her memories are a curse, her emotions are a tease. Together they show me things that I cannot have. Such things are unbecoming of a Xenomorph Queen." She said.
Shego stared at her, she noticed something about XeYori that she hadn't before. "Jacob she's mentally unstable." She told him.
"Ya, think?" he said as if that was obvious.
"No. I mean her Xenomorph mentality is fighting against her human one. Her mentalities are not capable of coexisting, one has to be the dominate factor. I'm willing to bet this is something even she did not know until she met Ron again." she explained.
"You think we can use it to our advantage?" he asked as he looked at her.
"Maybe. But I'll need your help." She told him.
Ron continued his conversation with XeYori. "Let us help you. Let me help you." He said as he extended his hand towards her.
She looked at him and before she realized it her hand was slowly reaching out towards his. However she pulled her hand back quickly. "You almost had me there Ron-kun. For a moment there I almost believed in your words, for a moment I almost forgotten who I was. I am XeYori Queen of the Xenomorph."
That's when Shego and Jacob stepped to the front. She looked back to Ron. "I'm trusting you to take everyone to safety. Don't worry my brothers should be competent enough to fend off any of those creatures. You have to make it back to my parents place in Upperton." She told the blond man.
"Shego, no. I- I don't want to lose you." Kim said with a whimper.
Shego kissed her on the cheek. "Don't worry pumpkin, I've got Jacob to watch my back. We'll be right behind you before you know it." she said before turning to face XeYori.
"Shego again, well if we must but this will be the last time." She told her.
"For once we agree. Ron Now!" She yelled.
Ron took Kim and ran. "Dr. P! Follow me!" he said.
"No!" XeYori yelled.
However Shego and Jacob stood in her way. Shego ignited her plasma and shot XeYori in her chest pushing her back. She and Jacob then ran down the hall to their left and were quickly being pursued by XeYori. Then made a sharp turn to their right and ran up the flight of stairs just as XeYori crashed into the wall behind them. She let out a roar of frustration. Shego and Jacob made it up to the third floor before XeYori showed by breaking through the floor and blocked their path.
"You can't run from me, Shego." She told her.
"Whose running?" She quipped.

Outside the hospital Ron along with Kim and her family as well as the Go family were heading to the car when Shego's mother stopped running. She couldn't help but think of Shego since seeing her run off to fight whatever that creature was. "I'm going back." She told them.
"What? Mom no you can't!" Mego said.
"Let me go instead." Hego offered.
She shook her head. "No this is something I need to do." She said as she ran off towards the hospital.
"Dad stop her." Hego said turning to his father for support.
"Your Mother's right boys. This is something we both need to do." He said and took off after her.
"Mom! Dad!" the twins yelled out to them.

Back in the hospital Shego and Jacob were holding there ground against the serpent queen. Shego was sent flying back, as Jacob kept firing his pistol at her. XeYori dodged the bullets then swatted him away.
"You'd be wise to turn and run boy. Your life is not the one I seek. Not yet." She warned him.
Jacob rose to his feet once more. "Lady, if I could call you that. I've dealt with worse things than you during basic training." he said as he picked up his gun. He looked over to Shego as she was getting up. "So what's the plan?" he asked her.
"Heh. this is the plan." She said smiling.
Jacob smiled. "You're crazy you know that."
"Says the man who traveled to a dinosaur infested jungle by himself." she responded igniting her plasma once more.
XeYori motioned for Shego to come after her, which Shego did. Jacob would watch for a few seconds before getting himself involved. That way he learned more of to be aware of while fighting this new opponent. They both could hear the army fighting there hardest out there. They hoped that the militaries might was more than enough considering XeYori had brought her own army to the battelfield. Shego blocked XeYori's kick and grabbd her foot. However before Shego could counter, XeYori countered her by attempting to stab her with her tail again. This forced Shego to let go of the serpent's foot so she could properly dodge. XeYori began pushing them back down the hall, brushing Shego aside, as Jacob rushed in jabbing her in the ribs.
She swatted at him again, but this time he was prepared and caught her hand and followed with a gut punch. XeYori stumbled back a little holding her gut. Jacob approached her cautiously, as she appeared to be laughing. Then she headbutted him sending him crashing through the door into a supply closet. He landed hard as piles of blood packs fell on him.
XeYori walked in as his vision had just cleared up. He looked up at her. "Game over." She said as she raised her tail, and before he could react she brought it down.
She looked on with sheer pleasure as the man gagged and the floor filled with blood. Jacob went limp as she pulled her bloodied tail out of him.
"Jacob!" Shego screamed.
XeYori turned to her laughing. "I warned him didn't I?" She said as she erupted into an uproar of laughter. Then suddenly she was sent flying forward. She quickly regained her footing and turned to see Jacob standing there before her. "But I killed you." She said in disbelief.
Jacob just smiled as he held up some torn and empty blood packs. "I shifted my body at the last minute." he told her tossing the packet aside.
"Hope I didn't scare you too much." he said as she walked up to Shego.
"Shut up." She told him. "You had me worried over nothing."
"Yeeeah." he said as he put his guard up.
Together they charged her and barraged her with an onslaught of attacks. XeYori could only defend against them as it was her turn to be pushed back. They were pushing her into a corner when she leapt to her right and kicked them both into the wall. She grabbed Jacob and threw him down the hall, as she kept Shego pinned with her right hand. Shego emitted another pulse wave and knocked XeYori off of her. Shego leapt into the air crashed into XeYori knocking her to the ground, but XeYori immediately flipped Shego off of her. She landed next to Jacob on the floor.
They both rose to their feet to see XeYori rapidly approaching, she pushed Jacob out of the way and jumped back as XeYori thrusted her tail forward once more. Blood splashed out on the hospital floor as Shego hit the ground. She looked herself over and found that she was ok. Then she looked up and saw parents. Her eyes widened when she realized that they didn't just pull her to safety they took the blow for her as well. Both her mother and father had been impaled by XeYori's tail.
"Mom. Dad." she said. "Why? Why did you do that?" she asked.
"We wanted to do something right by you for the first time in our lives." Her mother answered. "We realize that we denied you many rights that a child was supposed to have. We were just afraid of losing you." She said.
"Losing me?" Shego questioned.
Samantha coughed up blood, giving her husband a chance to speak. "Sherron years before you were born, we had a young daughter. In many ways you reminded us so much of her." he said coughing up blood as well, but he continued to speak. "She could brighten any one's day with her smile, and we were so proud to be her parents. Her name was Destiny. Destiny Go." he finished.
"When we thought things couldn't get any better. They got worse. One day she got sick, and no matter what we tried, it only gotten worse. The doctors told us she had an uncurable disease. That day was the last day we saw her. She was only eight years old." Samantha told her.
XeYori just looked on. A smile worked its way across her face. She began to remove her tail, but the Go parents grabbed ahold of her tail, keeping it in place. The strength they possessed was remarkable.
"We were just so frightened of losing you. That's why we decided to watch you like a hawk." Her father told her. "We knew we were hurting you. Not letting you play with your friends outside, attend birthday parties, or even socialize outside with others outside of school. We knew ot was wrong, but our fear of losing our only daughter was greater."
"I know there is nothing we can do, to ever make up for the damage we've done. But all we ever wanted you to know was that we loved you. That we still love you." she said as her eyes teared up.
Shego felt tears doing the same in her eyes as well. All this time she thought her parents were trying to control her and hurt her. cripple her because she didn't want to adapt to their lifestyle. All these years she had the wrong opinion of them. Shego was at a loss for words, all she could do was let her tears slip down her cheeks.
"Go dear, go and rejoin your friends. We'll hold this thing off." Samantha said as Jacob walked over to Shego and helped her up. "Oh and Shego." her parents called out to her. "We're proud of what you have become." They both said with a warm smile on their faces.
Jacob stood there for a few seconds before her parents gave him the ok to leave. He grabbed Shego and they ran down the hall that led to another stairwell. "I love yoy! Mom! Dad!" Shego screamed as she was drawn further away.
Her parents attention was now drawn onto the monster that stood before them. The monster that enjoyed causing pain and destroying families. XeYori just smiled at them as they looked back at her. "You know, I will catch her and I will Kill her." XeYori told them. "And her little girlfriend to." she snickered.
"Don't sound so sure of yourself, my daughter and her friends are going to kick your ass. You can count on it."
"Yeah our Sherron is more than capable of handling you." Samantha said agreeing with her husband. They both coughed up a little more blood.
"Oooh, well when the time comes, we'll see won't we?" she responded. "But as for you time has run out. Do not worry though. I'll reunite you with your whole entire family." she said as she began to eject streams of acid on to Shego's parents. It didn't take long for them to be consumed by the lethal liquid.
A mixture of blood and acid dripped off of her tail onto the floor as the acid ate through the blood then the floor itself. She was shortly joined by some of the Xenomorphs from her army. They hissed to her.
"No let them run. They'll be back, and we'll be ready as always. For now let's concentrate on taking over Middleton. This city will be the first step in reclaiming the world in the name of the Xenomorph." she said as she looked over the city.
Well looks like Shego's parents did love her after all huh guys? Next chapter we'll let the military handle the Xenomorphs, if they can that is. I also plan to upload some more art on AvKiGo, but drawing these Xenomorphs isn't an easy thing for me lol. Of course with more practice I'm sure i can handle it. Be on the look out for more art posted on by Raischenzo.
