Chapter Twenty-five -Two of a Kind, One in the Same
"It's over…" Kim sadly said. As the rain continued pouring down on top of the couple.
"It's over…" Shego said. Wincing at the pain as Kim looked at the sword remains in Shego's stomach.
"This is going to hurt…" Kim said, putting a hand on the sword hilt.
"It hurts now!" Shego exclaimed. "On three." She said, almost as if pleading.
But Kim had better ideas and just pulled it out as fast as she could, causing Shego to scream out in pain. While she thought against it as she had been taught to never remove the object from a stab wound, she knew Shego's healing factor was faster than most people and would recover where others would most likely bleed out though.
"What kind of count to three was that?!" Shego cried out.
"The anticipation only makes it worse!" Kim replied. Causing Shego to roll her eyes.
However, Shego's shaking had been worsening since she was stabbed and while it had stopped momentarily it resumed a few seconds later.
"Kim…" Shego said, making sure not to use a pet name, no jokes and all seriousness. "I love you…"
Kim's reaction in her eyes tore at Shego's heart strings. "Don't you give up now!" Kim cried as tears mixed with the rain pouring over her face.
"I c-c-can't…" Shego tried to say, gulping as her breathing became more rapid paced. "I love…you…" Shego said again, "Kim." Shego whispered before closing her eyes and going limp in Kim's arms.
Kim just look at Shego's body in shock as if she was still trying to process what just happened. And began to shake her head. "No… no… NO. Shego… don't give up on me! Not now!" Kim begged as her crying became uncontrollable. "Shego!"
Betty by now had risen to her feet and with her one remaining eye could feel tears flow from it as she put a hand over her mouth is shock. No… she thought. Looking back, she could see Agent Du racing towards her and where the final battle took place and as he got closer, she held a hand up for him to immediately stop.
He was about to ask what was up before looking over and going wide eyed as he mouthed 'oh'.
"SHEGO!" Kim cried once more, her sobbing now uncontrollable. Their victory was supposed to one they would celebrate together and not without the other. And to Kim Shego's death made no sense as even though the rain washed away much of the blood, Kim knew that from her girlfriend's pigmentation that she hadn't lost that much blood as she would have been more pale if she lost more, though looking at Shego's memory of the lil'Diablo night she knew Shego could lose a lot more blood than the average human could before even passing out let alone dying.
And moreover, looking at the hole the sword made, it missed all the major organs and Shego's spine, if it even managed to penetrate that far, if anything it only damaged the intestines.
"I'm not giving up on you!" Kim declared as she laid Shego down gently. She eyed the hole in Shego's stomach and as the catsuit began to close over it, she stuck two of her fingers into it. Not what I thought I'd be doing when sticking my fingers inside you. She thought, trying to cheer herself up as she activated her powers to cauterize the wound, the odor emanating from Shego's cooking flesh perforating Kim's nostrils, making her somewhat sick to her stomach. But it did its job and sealed the wound from further blood lose. Pulling her fingers out of Shego's now sealed stomach and quickly thinking on her feet, she noticed the live electrical wires that were blown off from the electrical towers and ran towards them. Seeing that they were attached to one of the towers and wouldn't reach where she was going to go, she let out a quick shot of plasma to knock them off the tower.
Grabbing onto some of the wires with a piece of rubber that had been blown here, Kim assumed from a tire of a vehicle Shego blew up making her way into the base, she ran back to Shego's body. "Don't you dare electrocute yourself!" Shego's voice could be heard from the day they spent training Kim's new powers in Kim's mind. Brushing that thought out of her mind, she grabbed hold of sparking wires with her left hand, her body beginning to convulse as thousands of volts of electricity began coursing through her body. She could feel as her plasma powers began to build up in her hands, similar to Shego on the lil'Diablo night but she resisted the urge to let go of the wires.
Betty and Du meanwhile took a step forward in awe by what they were seeing, with Betty grasping fully as to what Kim was attempting to do.
Finally feeling she could no longer hold in her power build up, Kim placed her hand right over Shego's heart on her right breast, releasing the energy and watching as Shego's body jolted as a result.
Taking a deep breath Kim raised her hand and let the power build up, this time for a second before repeating her contact with Shego. Come on… she thought as she did it for a third time, this time building up the energy for two seconds.
On the third attempt, Shego's eyes opened wide as she took a deep breath in shock and began panting heavily as she looked around her to get a look at the environment she was in before her eyes locked on to Kim.
Kim, seeing Shego return to life from her crude, albeit effect, defibrillation method tossed the wiring away from the two as hard as she could as if to hide what she did from Shego.
Betty and Agent Du let out a collective sigh of relief as they saw Shego spring back to life before they slowly began making their way to the two lovers.
Kim and Shego finally did a tearful embrace as the two, more so on Shego's part, realized that Shego had been brought back to life and began to kiss each other in a quick but passionate kiss that neither wanted to break away from, but did to look at the other.
"Kim…" Shego began to say, before being met with the hardest slap across the face she had ever experienced in her entire life.
"Don't you ever quit on me like that again!" Kim ordered as she resumed her crying. "Don't you EVER!" She barked again as the rain began to subside.
Shego, who by now had a large bruise on her face smiled after letting out a long sigh. "I promise." She said, hugging Kim. After noticing Betty and Du walk up to them she pulled away from the hug. "Help me up." Shego asked.
The request surprised Kim given who was asking for it, but remembered the damage Shego took and nodded as she helped Shego to her feet, holding Shego's arm over her shoulders to give her girlfriend more support. By now the rain had fully stopped and Betty and Du where a couple feet away from the couple.
"Quite an eventful night." Betty stated.
"Yeah…" Kim and Shego said, before glancing at the other for talking in unison again.
Soon agents began racing towards the four and for the first time, news helicopters could be heard and seen clearly flying overhead.
"Ah hell." Shego exclaimed upon seeing the news copters.
"Like you didn't see this coming." Kim smirked.
"We're going to need to re-evaluate that protection clause their Bets…" Shego said, eyeing Betty who looked shocked but then they all laughed in response.
"Ma'am." A Global Justice agent said, issuing a salute.
"Report!" Betty ordered, looking at the man.
"We've found the body of Kitosha."
"Body…" All four said.
"Yes." The agent reported, pulling up an image on a tablet of a live camera feed of the body that fell from the cliff. The body was sprawled out as if in a star position with the arms and legs flung as far from the body as possible while still attached. But the ironic part of the image, was the fact that Kitosha's last blade was protruding through his chest, from his heart no less and if the fall hadn't killed him, the sword to the heart would have.
"Heh, ironic." Shego said. "He always did love his swords." Shego finished as the reporting agent walked away to return to the main base to help supervise the mass arrest of the W.E.E.
"Indeed." Betty agreed. "He was a dangerous foe."
"True." Shego agreed. "He thought he was all that, but he wasn't." Shego concluded, before glaring at her snickering girlfriend. "Care to share Kimmie?"
"No, I'm good… Drakken." Kim slyly replied as she smirked, causing Shego to snarl with a growl before Betty snapped her out of it with her next remark.
"That's one last chapter to close on this matter." Betty stated.
"Actually…" Shego started. "It's not done yet…" She finished, looking over at where Kim dropped the sword after pulling it her body.
Shego pulled away from Kim's support and slowly made her way to the sword piece, eying it as she got close.
Kim meanwhile looked confused as to what Shego was doing before realizing exactly what Shego was doing.
Shego stopped a few inches away from the hilt and picked it up, being careful not to bend her stomach as she couched to do so. She proceeded to pull out the large red-diamond from the hilt and with one free hand she lit up her hand and melted the blade remnant to a liquid in her cupped hand before intensifying the heat further to boil the titanium blade into nothing but a fine titanium powder that fell back down to the ground.
Betty and Du were surprised the most about the display of Shego's power as they knew titanium had a boiling point of almost six thousand degrees Fahrenheit (or almost 3300 degrees Celsius).
While still in a squatting position, Shego reached into her ankle pouch and pulled something out that no one could quite see until Shego turned around to face them and walk towards them. And there in her hand they could see, the large red-diamond. It was a deep blood red color and the size of the blue Hope Diamond at 45 carats and in Shego's other hand, was a gold necklace with what looked to be small rubies encrusted around a large pendant that was missing a large gemstone.
Everyone watched as Shego gently placed the red diamond into the pendant and with a quick use of her powers bent the small little protrusions of gold to hold the diamond in place.
"It's beautiful…" Kim said. "You made that?"
"Yeah, took a lot of work and effort." Shego admitted. "I had the necklace made to the tee except for the diamond, that took a lot of attempts and a lot of pieces of coal as I wanted to make a red diamond especially for Sara. Ended up with a couple hundred large pieces of just regular diamonds and it took A LOT of effort as making diamonds requires a lot of heat and pressure to make, though with more heat to compensate for less pressure I finally made this." Shego held up the necklace by the pendant part.
"Can't believe you of all people would complain about having too many diamonds." Kim said, copying Shego's sassy manner.
Shego glared at Kim for her use of her sass before continuing her story. "Gave it to her on our first year anniversary as a couple after I had the gem cut to its most valuable size and cut style, though it's the same as the Hope Diamond except for the color, the jeweler I know helped me cover up the fact that this wasn't a natural diamond, though if anyone said that I could make a diamond like this would laugh anyway, so a cover story was written up and the rest was history." Shego finished as she took off her gloves and placed them into her ankle pouch, rationalizing that she wouldn't need them and wanted to not only feel Kim's touch but also the neckless as she cupped it with both hands.
Kim smiled for a moment at the touching story, though she did think that Shego was now going to have to do something special for their one year anniversary if she did that for Sara. A second after finishing her thought however, Kim began to shiver at the cool temperature outside and the fact that she was still soaking wet.
Shego looked up, noticing Kim shaking. "Let me help." She said, embracing Kim in a hug as she took Kim's hands as well with the necklace in both their hands now.
"Wait." Kim said, looking into Shego's eyes. "I want to try something…"
Shego for a moment looked puzzled as Kim closed her eyes and Shego soon found herself, along with Kim, engulfed in a warm pink and black flame over their entire bodies.
Both Betty and Du went wide eyed at the latest development and gave each other shocked looks as to what they were seeing.
However, no one was more surprised than Shego who knew all too well what this meant. Though pausing for thought as she felt her hair and Kim's cloths drying out, Shego decided to add her own full body glow to the mix, closing her eyes and placing her forehead against Kim's.
Betty and Du gave each other another shocked expression as they watched the two women now engulfed not just in Shego's trademark green and black flame, but Kim's pink and black as the two dominate colors seemed to dance around in a fight for dominance around the two women.
Shego for her part knew exactly why she added her own flame to the mix and she opened her mind to Kim as she thought about what she said from the night before when they were dancing to Selena Gomez's song 'Same Old Love'; We have our own kind of love. Shego thought causing Kim to smile in the outside world rather than say anything, which caused Betty and Du to get confused as to what was going on but thought against it for now.
As the warmth of the flames finally died down, both women looked at each other and how much had changed in the last couple weeks: They found each other after years of not seeing the other, by accident no less. Confessed their true feelings, with some effort on both parties involved. Kim got plasma powers that matched Shego's but with a pink and black glow rather than green and black and most strikingly to Shego; Kim's eyes went from olive green to emerald green and now here they were with a new change; Kim's eyes seemed to be glowing emerald green much like Shego's eyes now.
As much of a warm fuzzy feeling as it was to Betty however, she broke the lover's moment by a fake cough to bring them back into the moment.
Both women went wide eyed as they looked over at Betty with both women letting out a "oh" when they remembered their environment.
Though seeing as how the moment was gone now. Shego decided to do something the second she saw Kim using her powers in full body rather than just her hands.
"Kimmie?" Shego started with.
Kim for her part seemed to tense up as she knew what was coming. "Y-yes?"
Giving Kim a serious look now, Shego continued. "You remember what I said the day I spent training you?"
"…Yeah…" Kim whimpered as if bracing herself for something.
Both Betty and Du looked puzzled at the two women then each other and then winced as they heard a very loud slap across someone's face. By the time they looked back at the two lovers, they could see Kim looking to the side with a large dark pink spot on her cheek from where a hand slapped it.
"Guess we're even now…" Kim said. "With the whole slapping bit…"
Shego sighed. "Yeah."
"But in my defense, I didn't electrocute myself to boost my powers…" Kim pleaded.
"You still did anyway, though given the circumstances behind it… I'll excuse you from now on." Shego offered, embracing Kim in a hug.
Shego pulled away from the hug and looked down at Sara's necklace before looking to look up at Betty and started to make an offering motion to Betty before being interrupted.
"Keep it." Betty said, though in a more warmer tone than she usually uses when it came to doing business.
"You sure?" Shego asked, as Kim took Shego's free hand with her own. "She was your daughter…"
"Say what?" Kim asked, with Shego and Betty giving her a look of "not now, but later."
"As I explained to Agent Du, while it's true a mother will love their child deeply and go to great lengths to protect them." Betty explained. "A mother's love, while special in its own right, is nothing compared to the love of a partner. And you demonstrated that today, the both of you. It was a gift you gave to Sara, that you made for Sara and it should remain with you." Betty smiled.
Shego and Kim looked down and giving each other a glance, they knew what they were going to do with the necklace.
"Thanks." Shego said. "Though could you stop smiling one-eye? It's kind of giving me the willies."
"Shego!" Kim cried, elbowing the pale-green woman in the side.
"Kiiim!" Shego hissed as she placed her hand over her stomach wound.
"Oh sorry!" Kim cried out.
"I'll have a medic check you over…" Betty offered.
"No need, I've suffered worse from Princess over here." Shego winked.
"Except I never… never mind." Kim replied before surrendering.
"On the note of Sara…" Betty started as they started walking back towards the compound.
Shego shook her head. "No, while he said he was going to bury her with the honor of a warrior, her body fell into the Colorado river and he waited to see if she would rise back to the surface. Probably in the Pacific Ocean seeing as how I don't remember a body ever popping up on the news."
Betty sighed. "And nothing came onto my desk about a body in the river either. I guess we should count our blessings then and hope the fish in the river and oceans were merciful."
They all soon reached the W.E.E. base as all the thugs were being arrested and placed onto police busses for transport, while Gemini was being carried away on a stretcher.
"You did the right thing Sheldon." Betty told her brother as the group reached him.
Sheldon, meanwhile was laying on the stretcher with his hands over his stomach as he was being loaded onto the ambulance. "Hmm funny, doesn't feel right." He replied.
"Look at the bright side." Betty started.
"There's a bright side?" He asked as he was loaded onto the ambulance.
"Yeah, now you can call mom without being traced and talk for long hours." Betty smirked.
Sheldon for his part looked like a kid in a candy store. "You mean that?!" He asked as the doors to the ambulance closed and it started driving away.
"So, what was his deal?" Shego asked, attempting to fold her arms as Kim stole Shego's hand that didn't contain the necklace for another hand hold. Normally she would have reisted the public display, but now she welcomed it and didn't fight her girlfriend.
"Very observant there." Betty stated before turning back towards the couple as Du, who was told the details before Shego delivered her one liner for them to enter the compound, started dealing with the more junior agents, freeing up Betty to explain. "Sheldon actually contacted me after they called you, while we knew where they were already he actually told us himself to make sure we knew exactly where he and more important Kim here was."
Kim and Shego nodded.
"His deal was simple, a ten year supervised probation, with his record being sealed. In exchange for all W.E.E assets, personal lists, everything and anything he knew on ongoing other criminal activities."
Shego let out a whistle.
"That shortens the list of supervillains in the world." Kim pointed out, to which Betty nodded in agreement.
"Indeed, though we'll always be on the lookout for…" Betty started to say, before her phone began going off and she took the call on speaker after seeing who it was. "Yes Shelly?"
"WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT CALLING ME THAT!" Sheldon shouted, causing Kim and Shego to snicker quietly. "Anyway, could you also look after Pepe for me while I'm in the hospital?" He asked, as a GJ agent brought out the aforementioned dog in his small kennel near them.
"I guess…" Betty started to say.
"Thanks!" Sheldon said before hanging up.
Betty sighed. "Well not in the agreement… he is my brother at the end of the day." She concluded taking the kennel from the agent who then walked away. "Global Justice…" Betty started to say as she turned towards the couple, before Pepe began barking around in his kennel.
"Shh, it's okay…" Betty started to say, before Du took the dog away so she could talk.
"We owe you a great debt." Betty said, looking at both Kim and Shego. "The both of you."
"Thanks ma'am." Kim said smiling.
"Even though I did all the work here." Shego countered to Kim.
"Excuse me?!" Kim replied. "I was the one who was kidnapped!"
"Yeah… not helping your case there pumpkin." Shego fired back, her sass getting stronger as they continued.
Betty interrupted their lovers quarrel once again by fake coughing. Which was followed by six individuals getting clear of the reports and GJ agents blocking the scene off.
"Kimmie!" Anne Possible screamed upon seeing her daughter.
Kimmie is my thing! Shego cried again. Ah hell, who cares right now.
"Mom!" Kim cried out.
"Oh, I was so worried about you!" Anne said, ignoring the tears of joy seeing her daughter safe and sound.
Anne was joined by her dad, two brothers, Ron and Bonnie.
"Nice to see you Kimmie-cub." James said, giving his daughter a hug after her mom.
"Daaad!" Kim cried as her parental nickname was called to her in front of Shego.
"What?" James asked, only to be interrupted by Tim and Jim hugging their big sister, though without saying anything as the hug said it all.
"KP!" Ron shouted as he got he hugged Kim as well.
"Ron." Kim replied only to be interrupted by a second hugger, to Kim's surprise, being Bonnie.
"Glad to see you're still in one piece." Bonnie said, with a warm smile that was still throwing Kim off as she was still getting used to 'Nice Bonnie' as she calling her in her head.
"All thanks to Shego." Kim smiled, looking back at her girlfriend who had up and till now just been standing in the background looking at the ground only to look up as her name was said, and now also starting to blush a dark green as she saw so many sets of eyes on her.
"Ah…" Shego started to say, only to be interrupted by Anne hugging her.
"Thanks, Shego for being there for Kim." Anne said.
"Yes, thanks indeed, by this point in the relationship I would normally nominate you for a one-way trip into a black hole but I'd say you are one hundred percent apart of this family!" James declared.
"Hick-a-bicka-boo." Jim said.
"Hoo-sha." Time said, high fiving each other at their father's approval of a potential bad-ass sister in law.
This caused Shego to cringe and turn darker green still as the attention was getting to her.
"We saw everything on the news and I can see why Kim admired you for all those years." Bonnie admitted.
"Yeah…" Shego shakily replied. "Feeling's mutual." Shego replied, smiling at her girlfriend, though still looking nervous.
"Something the matter?" Anne asked, looking concerned.
"This… I…" Shego studdered.
"Shego isn't exactly a family person, she still hasn't explained it to me…" Kim said, she wanted to continue but was cut off.
"Say no more Kimmie-cub." James said, holding up a hand. "All that matters right now is you two are safe."
"As long as I have Shego by my side." Kim said, taking Shego's hand.
"And I you." Shego said, looking at Kim to make this less weird to herself.
"Nothing can stop us." Kim declared, smiling at her family and friends.
Anne continued crying tears of joy at how far her daughter had come, followed by James who wiped away a single tear as he had been fighting his own tears of joy since they got here. Ron smiled and waved with Bonnie smiling as well with Rufus racing up Bonnie's light blue rain coat to wave from her shoulder.
"So, when's the Green and Pink wedding?" Ron asked with a beaming smile.
"Ron!" Bonnie moaned. "Not the time or place."
"What? Was just asking." Ron defensively said, with Rufus folding his little arms in annoyance with his owner.
Shaking his head at Ron, James returned his gaze to his daughter and Shego. "Though one thing is bugging me about this…" James finally spoke up in a serious tone, eying both Kim and Shego.
"What?" Kim asked nervously.
James narrowed his, as if his old age was playing tricks on his vision. "How are you two dry now?"
Kim and Shego smirked and looked at each other and merely responded by lighting up their whole bodies, causing the group to go wide eyed. With Jim, Tim and Ron looking like kids in a candy store at the display.
"I'm sure you saw how this happened from the news…" Kim said. "Shego was doing this since the lil'Diablo night."
"You two really are two of a kind." Anne said.
"Yeah, we are." Kim replied, looking at Shego's eyes with a smile. "Two of a kind…"
"One in the same." Shego finished as they embraced each other in a passionate kiss.
James by now completely failed in his singular objective of not crying tears of joy by the display of love in front of him. Causing Anne to lean up against her husband as if to comfort him.
Jim and Tim were making mock gagging noises until Anne coughed causing them to stop.
Rufus meanwhile pulled out a hanky, from where is still not known, and blew his nose causing Bonnie to giggle a bit before returning to Kim and Shego who by now pulled out from the kiss.
"You'll still always be my little bubble-butt however Kimmie." Anne declared, with a semi devious smile on her face.
"MOM!" Kim cried out, causing Shego to start laughing.
By now Betty returned to the group, escaping anyone's notice that she had walked away to let the group have their time in piece.
"Here." She said, handing them an envelope.
Kim opened the envelope, unsealed which made it easy enough and went wide eyed at what she saw.
"Kimmie?" Shego asked, taking the piece of paper Kim had pulled out with her girlfriend still wide eyed and unmoving. Looking at the check and its amount, Shego let out a long whistle.
"Before either of you say anything, you're freelance agents now." Betty started to say. "You'll be getting more of these the more you help us in GJ's efforts."
"I ain't complaining." Shego said as she put the check for half a million dollars and the necklace in her pouch with her gloves. Returning to her now short circuiting Kim. "Snap out of it princess."
"Thanks ma'am." Kim said.
"Please, just Betty." She said. "I have a vehicle ready to take you ladies home now." Betty gestured.
"Home…" Both women said, glaring at the other and about to make a scene until they heard the sound of a lot of people talking at once.
To their horror, a large group of reporters had broken through the Global Justice crime scene tape and were making a beeline for group, causing Kim to prematurely activate her powers, though on her head similar to Hades from Hercules in a little anger.
"KIM POSSIBLE!" They started shouting. "IS THAT SHEGO?!" Others shouted. "DID THEY JUST KISS?!"
"The car is a prototype cloaking vehicle…" Betty quickly pointed out.
"Come on Princess!" Shego said, taking Kim's hand as she headed to the black SUV with her girlfriend in tow behind her as the reporter's speed increased.
"Bye everyone." Kim rushed to say to her friends and family, who also starting their own path to their means of escape, fortunately for them the reporters were fixated on the couple rather than their friends and family.
Getting into the car, the driver immediately activated the camouflage system and reporters looked around confused, with one even running right into the side causing Shego to laugh only to stop as she realized the pain laughing hard was causing her as they started driving home.
Unknown location
A man raced up the stairs towards a looked at the large bank of television screens in front of him. He feared his boss's reaction to the recent developments that he was watching, both on the news and stealth camera drones.
"Sir!" The underling said in his unmistakable high pitched voice as he saluted.
"Hmm, an interesting turn of events." His boss said.
"Yes sir…" The underling agreed.
"No matter, we'll just have to bide our time. Dismissed." The man told his underline, who looked confused but merely nodded and scampered away.
A second man stood behind the calm man who sat watching everything unfold on the monitors and speaking in German. "Won't this cause us harm in the long run?"
He listened as his boss replied to him, also speaking in German. "No, this merely delays our plans, but doesn't stop it." He answered, calmly putting the tips of his fingers together before placing his hands up to his chin. "Kitosha was a loose cannon and his end would have come either way as I had no plans of keeping him as he was merely a pawn. Though Kim Possible not only enhancing her own powers from the looks of it, on top of Sheldonn Director surrendering his organization to Global Justice and Shego being brought back form the dead merely adds to the complexity of it all."
For his part the German man looked back at the screens. He knew English well enough, but he did enjoy talking in a language only his boss, an American nonetheless, and he understood. Though he'd be lying if he didn't wish to be the second in command.
"How are we going to proceed?" He asked his boss.
"We merely wait, as in chess one cannot win without moving all the pieces in place and pawns are expendable." His boss replied, continuing his calmness.
Kim and Shego's Condo
Kim and Shego finally came into their apartment, exhausted from the day's events.
Shego however, was relieved when she saw their condo was empty of GJ agents as Betty said they would by the time they got home.
Meow. Jewels said, walking slowly towards the couple, with a bandage wrapped around her stomach, showing just how poufy her black fur was.
"Jewels." Both women said with a smile, only to glare at each other as they spoke at the same time again. "Stop that!" They both said again, pointing fingers at each other.
Meow. Jewels said again.
"I have to say, Jewels did put up one hell of a fight." Kim admitted, petting their cat who began purring.
"I'm not surprised." Shego replied, looking at the television before feeling more pain from her shoulders and stomach. "I'd ask you to dance as we're in the mood from all the loveydovy from your family and friends but I'm tired."
"We may not be married yet, but they're your friends and family too." Kim declared, standing up to hold both of Shego's hands. "You may have issues with yours, but you're always welcome in mine."
"How did you…" Shego began to ask, but dropping the subject with a smile. "Thanks Kim…" Shego finished as they began walking towards their room, with Jewels slowly following behind, though Jewels caught up as the stairs proved to be a bit harder on Shego than they thought they would, but they did take the elevator up to their condo so they couldn't have seen it coming.
Kim offered to help Shego change, but was rejected as Shego of course claiming to not be a child, despite her injuries and after ten minutes of worrying finally heard the door to the walk in closet open and close as Shego walked out wearing a lime-green t-shirt that showed her belly-button, and the stab wound that was close to it, which had healed a lot more than Kim thought it would have, even with her cauterizing the wound. Shego also had on black shorts and was holding her green ankle pouch.
Finally reaching the bed, Kim gently put Jewels on the bed, who had meowed a few times at Kim as she still couldn't jump up without feeling pain. With Shego looking at the pouch for a few seconds before opening it, she had since put her gloves away but left the rest as she put the large check on the dresser to deal with when she felt like getting out of bed after this latest fight. But slowly pulled out the red-diamond necklace she gave Sara all those years ago and to her relief was finally whole again.
"Bitter sweet?" Kim finally asked.
"Yeah… you could say that." Shego answered. "I still miss her though…"
"I know…" Kim answered. "I saw the memories you were willing to share and I like her too." Kim smiled as Shego moved from the dresser to the bed. "You planning on putting the necklace away?"
"No." Shego replied, causing Kim to look confused until she saw Shego wrapped the necklace around the picture of her and Sara after Shego got her powers, with the pendant with the gemstone hanging in the center below the picture.
Kim could tell this one of those serious moments that Shego needed without interruption and let her girlfriend move at her own speed. And patiently watched as Shego kissed two of her fingers and put them on the frame, bringing a sad look to Kim's face at the sight. To her she and Shego had grown very close to each other, with the world seeing Shego with a hard exterior who didn't take shit from anyone, but to Kim she saw the soft inside and the more she saw it the more she was attracted to Shego. Hell, if she had met Sara and Shego with the two saving the world if Sara wasn't killed, she'd think of possibly being close friends, if not closer…
Kim's thoughts were interrupted by the pitiful sight of Shego wincing and whimpering in pain as she lifted her side of the bedsheets up and crawling into bed.
"You ok?" Kim asked, the concern in her voice coming through very clearly.
"Yeah…" Shego said, as she finally got under the bed sheets. Trying to roll over, which to her surprise didn't hurt to be on her side facing Kim, who in turn laid down fully and rolled to her side to face Shego.
The two laid like this for what seemed to be forever, prompting the two to start singing. I wanna lay like this forever, until the sky falls down on me. Before the two started laughing a little as they looked each other in the eyes.
"I love you Kim." Shego said.
"I love you Shego." Kim replied as they kissed each other good night with their foreheads touching and Jewels making her way to lay against Shego's back.
Authors notes: We've finally reached the end of this journey! However, there is more to come, but in a new story! The working title is Pink and Green Twist, idk ideas would be nice. Anyway. Thank you all for reading and I hope to see you all in the next story.
As mentioned above, it would be nice to get a good cover image of Shego in her catuit with Kim in a black short sleeve t-shirt that showed her belly button (like her mission black shirt) along with pink short shorts with the who hugging but with Kim having her pale-pink skin! ^_^
For those who came here from my YouTube channel, DON'T SPOIL ANYTHING in your reviews as there is a teaser, which should be obvious where in this chapter.
Also, some of you also seem to be figuring out on what I'm doing in other areas as well, though you'll just have to wait and see.
Anyway, once again thank you all for reading and I hope to see you in the next story!
