CHAPTER 25

Shego opened her eyes and looked at Emma. She put a hand on her belly. She felt the baby's heart beat. She put her arms out to her daughter. Emma jumped into her mother's embrace.

"I knew you could do it. I knew it, you did great, princess. You saved the baby." Emma was still crying but lightened up when she heard her mom say that. She jumped off the bed and ran to hug her father. Drakken picked her up ignoring the fact that she was fifteen years old.

"I'm so proud of you baby. I knew you had the strength." Drakken put her down. She went over to Tom. He put his arms out and Emma jumped into them. He gripped her with both hands completely forgetting his right hand was hurting. It was killing him but he didn't care. He twirled her around and they kissed each other forgetting that Shego and Drakken were right there. Tom put her down and then realized what they had just done. He stood there really scared at what was going to happen. Nothing happened; Shego sat there with her hand on her heart. Drakken stood there with a smile on his face.

"All we can say is it's about time." Shego and Drakken chimed in together. Just then there was a knock on the door. Emma went to answer. When she opened it, she screamed with happiness.

"Auntie Kim!" She screamed giving her aunt a huge hug.

"Nice to you to Emma, where's your mom I need to talk to her about something."

"In her room, she's on bed rest until the baby is born."

"Well, Wade would beg to differ. Wade, show her the video of her mother robbing Smarty Mart." Emma looked at the video in disbelieve.

"That's can't be mom. Look this video was taken a few days ago, mom is showing now. Look at this woman no belly. Therefore, it can't be mom. I think Wade is losing his touch."

"Heard that, Emma."

"You were supposed to." Emma teased. "But really Auntie Kim that's not mom." Emma took Kate to Shego and Drakken's room. "See she's been sitting her for a while. There's no way she could have committed that crime."

"Crime, what crime?" Shego asked really confused. Kim showed her the video of a person that looked like her robbing Smarty Mart. She made a concerned face which turned into a widened face. "I know her; she's the one my mom gave up. That's my sister, Melody Go. Otherwise known as Melody Sting, I haven't seen her in ages."

"How do you remember her then?" Kim asked. "How come you never told me about her? I have the right to know."

"It didn't seem important when I found out we were sisters. I would have told you eventually." Shego said as she looked at the video. "I know where you can find her. She's living in Go City and lives in the apartments behind Go Tower. Let's go."

"NO, not you; you're on bed rest until this baby is born." Drakken said pushing her back onto the bed. "You're not going to risk the baby's life to see your sister." Shego gave out a groan and crossed her arms as she slumped back into the bed. She turned to Kim and asked her to tell Melody she says hi. Kim said she would as she got Ron on the phone.

"Ron get ready, we're going to Go City." Short pause for Ron talking. "For the last time, face it Hego is not going to put the Naco and the menu, get a life. I'll be over in five minutes. With that she ended the call and walked out of the room. Emma followed her aunt to the door, leaving Shego and Drakken alone.

"Mind telling me why the hell you were ready to jump at the idea of seeing Melody?" Drakken asked when he was sure Emma was out of hearing rage.

"I'm not going to stay in this bed forever. I haven't seen her in however long it's been, I want to see my sister." Shego said tries to get up but Drakken holds her down. She wants to ignite her hands but she knows it would hurt the baby, so just sits there and turns on the TV. When she turned it on, she saw the story about Melody.

Flashback

(Shego)- "Melody leave me alone! I'm not staying here and that's final."

(Melody)- "If you leave then so will I."

(Shego)- "Don't make me laugh; you don't have the guts to leave them."

(Melody)- "I have the same amount of guts as you do; if you leave then I am too."

(Shego)- "Melody you are fifteen, I am eighteen I can do whatever I want." Shego knelt down to her level. "You are still so young, don't make the mistake I did. I'm not saying rebel like me, but don't leave because you're angry with them for chasing me away. I have to go. Love you." She kissed her on her forehead.

(Melody)- "I'm going to miss you."

(Shego)- I'll miss you too, bye." Melody followed her sister to the door and when it shut she knew that she would probably not see her sister again. She made a vow that she would be like her and make sure that she was not forgotten. She packed up a few of her things and left the Go Tower only to look back at what she just met.

End flashback

This brought tears to Shego's eyes learning that her little sister the one that just moved into the Go Tower after being away for fifteen years, threw it all away just to be like her. She wiped them away and again began to think of what Kim and Ron could still do for Melody.
