Chapter 35

Monique came into the backyard.

"Hey, girls, what's going..." Then she saw the two redheads in their opposite signature clothes, "...on?"

"Monique, we have an awful sitch here!" Ron whined, "Everything has gone topsy-turvy and I'm caught in the middle!"

"Can you please better define it?" Monique requested.

"Kim and Candace have officially switched minds while they were at Mr. Swirley's!" Ron said, taking a deep breath to calm down. "So now Candace has Kim's personality and vice-versa..."

Monique gasped in disbelief.

Kim snuck up to Candace and grabbed what looked like lip gloss.

"Oooh...time to pucker up my lips for my date with Josh!"

Ron looked at what Kim was doing and gasped.

"KP...I wouldn't do that if I were you!"

It was too late, however, as Kim unscrewed the top. The horrible stench of five-month old gym socks was unleashed before Kim's sense of smell.

"Ewwwww! What gives with that awful smell?"

Kim then collapsed back in to the mud.

"I should've known something was up when Kim mentioned the word 'busting' in our phone convo. And Kim better do something about that smell because it smells like two-month old jock straps! Ugh!"

"On top of that, Candace now has all of Kim's moves and Kim...well..." Ron sighed in defeat, looking at Kim with her shoes covered in dog poop. "But...I'm still not giving up, Monique! Not until those two are back to..."

Before Ron could say anything further, Candace heard the beeping of the Kimmunicator, now the Candacemunicator as she calls it.

"Candace, the Mayor still needs your help!" Wade insisted. While he was saying this, he was also running a scan on Candace and Kim's brain activites.

"Tell him I'm on my way, Wade! First, I gotta make a pit stop at Jeremy's house first to get him his mission uniform!" Candace declared, looking at the Johnson house. She had a mission uniform ready for Jeremy.

But before she could go out the backyard, Ron stopped her.

"Wait, Candace!"

"Can you move out of my way, Stoppable? Jeremy needs his uniform!" Candace demanded.

"It's too dangerous out there for Jeremy!" Ron replied, seeing that Jeremy has never had the experience of dealing with the type of villains that Kim normally faces.

"Look, Ron! I need my boyfriend here to be the distraction!" Candace explained what Jeremy's role was in dealing with the villains, "Team Flynn needs to have someone distract the henchmen!"

"Your boyfriend?! The distraction?!"

Ron was caught offguard by what Candace said, "Look, Candace, if there is anyone who is an expert at being the distraction, it would have to be me! I did it with Kim all the time before...you know...all this happened."

"But I need Jeremy to work with me as a team!"

Work as a team...?

A crazy but brilliant idea came to Ron.

"Candace, hear me out on this! Why don't I teach Jeremy the ways of being the distractor!"

"Go on..." Candace replied, hearing what Ron has to say.

"If I can teach him the art of distracting the villains, then Jeremy will remain safe through this mission of rescuing the Mayor." Ron said.

"Okay...you're in, Ron." Candace grinned.

"Boo-yah! I'm in the zone, baby!"

Ron jumped in triumph, saying his most-favorite catchphrase.

"Don't flatter yourself, Ron! Now get dressed! We're going on a little 'rescue mission'!" Candace grinned, giving herself a badass boast.

"But what about the rest of us?" Monique asked, looking at the other girls and at Kim, whom was covered in mud and with her eyes twitching around.

"Monique, I want you, Bonnie and Tara to keep an eye on her. Make sure she doesn't get out of your sight!" Ron replied, setting forth a plan to hopefully get both Kim and Candace back to normal, barring any news of the brain scan from Wade.

At the Johnson house, Jeremy was playing around with his sister.

"Who's the cutie-wootie pie!" Jeremy cooed.

"I am!" Suzy squeaked with joy.

"Did you take the doggie-woggie to do his busy-wussy-ness?"

"Yes...yes I did!" Suzy grinned.

"That's my little girl!" Jeremy smiled, hugging Suzy before hearing a knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Candace opened the door and came in. Ron was right behind her, putting his pants on.

"Almost...got...it!"

"Oh hey, Candace!" Jeremy grinned, anticipating a kiss from his girlfriend. He complimented on the mission clothes she was wearing.

"Nice threads!"

Instead, Candace opened up her knapsack and tossed the mission clothes in his face.

Jeremy was confused by all the chaos that was going around him.

"Candace? What's going on?"

Suzy, however, was more puzzled than her brother in seeing Candace in anything other than her red top-white skirt combo. Moreover, she was surprised that her face didn't have mud on it, or her boots didn't come with Lulu's leavings on them. Still, she had to keep her good girl persona up to make sure that Veruca's plan continued to remain hidden from them.

"Sorry that we're in a rush, Jeremy, but the Mayor of Middleton has been kidnapped by a madman and we have to rescue him ASAP! So get on your mission outfit and we're going to save him!"

"Um..." Jeremy interjected, putting the mission clothes "...shouldn't we leave that to the professionals?"

"Not to insult you or anything, Jeremy..." Candace replied, getting out Kim's most famous tool: her red hairdryer grappling gun, "...but haven't you forgotten how many 'professionals' can deal with super-powered villains that have a bunch of henchmen?"

"And that would be...?" Jeremy asked.

"Us! We have to stop Drakken and Shego from conquering the world!" Candace declared.

Jeremy looked at Ron and asked, "What happened to Candace?"

"It's a long story, Jeremy!" Ron said, whispering in his ear. "I'd suggest that you play along."

"Ooookay, Ron...whatver you say..." Jeremy sighed as he went into the hall bathroom, mission clothes in hand.

(5 minutes later)

Jeremy came out in the mission uniform, similar to that of Ron's.

"Hey, look!" Ron smirked a little, "We could be long-lost identical twins!"

"Very funny, Ron." Jeremy snarked, but took Ron's advice to play along in Candace's mission.

"So, um, are we ready, Candace?"

Candace finished packing up the essentials, namely Kim's gadgets, plus an extra case of the smelly lip gloss because Kim had earlier opened up a case of it and was knocked out the horrible whiff of it.

"I'm ready, Jeremy! Now let's rock and roll!"

Candace, Jeremy, and Ron all ran out the house. A sedan that Wade had arranged appeared in front of them. All three of the teens went in the car and headed from Danville to Middleton to save the Mayor.
