Revenge and Reversal
Chapter 36
Middleton Airport, Middleton, Colorado:
"Did you spot the bastard yet?", Bruce asked his cousin who was watching through binoculars, "It's freezing and he's later than usual."
"No I haven't, and with as much booze in you it's a wonder you can feel anything.", Ricky Wheeler replied with a sharp tone.
"Well don't look at me that way...I was just enjoying myself when Chunky decided to have us come out here. Christ this is lousy weather.", Bruce groaned either from the cold or the hangover, it was always hard to tell.
"You knew a couple days ago that we would have to come out. Oh how do you like that new toy Josh gave us?", Bruce admonished his cousin then wondered how he liked his new M-16.
"Some toy, why couldn't he have gotten something smaller. Those things don't look that heavy on TV. I fired mine on full auto this morning...Jamie ripped my ass for wasting ammunition.", Bruce moaned.
"Listen cousin we only have so much ammo. We can't go around wasting it. We don't have the money to buy more of it.", Ricky cautioned having heard the tirade from his short fat fiery cousin before.
"We can always get more. From those places where Josh got this batch.", Bruce ranted.
"Think so?", Wheeler asked.
"Yeah it should be easy.", Bruce Mankey-George told him with furrowed eyes.
"Where are you going to get it? You can't just walk into an Army base as ask for the stuff. Josh and his girlfriend broke into Fort Campbell to get it, just like they broke into gun stores to get some of the other stuff. If you go and do that the Army is going to toss you into jail.", Ricky told his cousin shaking his head mentally at how dopy the guy could be.
"But we're Mankey's...they can't do that to us.", Brucie boy told his cuz.
"You're living in that dream world that most of the rest of the family are, Raul and I have been talking. The odds are pretty good that we're gonna end up being wiped out.", Ricky confided.
"We're going to get away with it.", Bruce confidently tried to explain.
"How so Mr. Brains.", Ricky smiled.
"We're taking on a bunch of ex-Army guys who are working for Global Justice. And why's that?...To kidnap a three year old kid from a woman who used to be married into the family so we can breed her. Then to make it better we are kidnapping some of friends of Joshie's ex...And we're going to extort Stoppable to get the child back. After he gives us the money we are gonna whack him.", Ricky made it all concise.
"Yeah that's what we are going to do."
"Do you wanna tell me which of those aren't crimes?", Ricky pressed in with his logic.
"But we're Mankey's Ricky boy.", Bruce played the 'Mankey' card.
"Dammit you dumb drunk. I hate to tell you this, but the Mankey family is not above the law. If we were do you think Henry and Veronica wouldn't have been convicted of assaulting Joshie's ex? Think about it for a while you keep a lookout for the bastard that Possible married.", Ricky told him as he sat back and tried to relax in his frustrated state of mind.
After several more hours the airport traffic finally died down. "OK it's after midnight. I don't think he's coming home. Let's go to a bar. Call Jamie up while I drive. Make sure you tell her exactly what we saw.", Ricky told him.
"Should I tell her that what's his name isn't going to be home this weekend?", Bruce asked.
"Just tell her that we didn't see him come from the terminal. I don't know why but we might be able to move before we thought that we could.", Ricky replied silently, now desiring a couple of drinks to calm him down from the earlier discussion.

Point Hope, Alaska:
Brian looked at his friend who was packing for a trip, "So you're going back down for a while?"
"Yeah I wanna go through some things with them. Then maybe I'll talk with Sarah.", Alan Crenshaw replied.
"Sarah...you mean your ex?", the Inuit asked.
"Yeah same one.", he half smiled.
"Why?", the shorter man wanted to know if his friend was putting his past behind him or at least facing it now.
"Ya know I wasn't real fair to her. I came back from my last tour a little psycho. I took it all out on a lot of people...her included. She wasn't prepared for it. I gave her a raw deal and...well this shrink at GJ offered me the chance to work it out. Her husband was a Ranger like me so she's used to this stuff too. He has PTSS and they've worked it out. Anyway she's supposedly talked to the ex. So I might be gone for a month. Ya know it might even be warm by the time I get back up here.", Crenshaw chuckles.
"Yeah I know you were real mad when you got here. Maybe this is a good thing for you.", Brian laughed.
"Yeah...uh you and Brenda set a date yet?", Alan decided to move this conversation away from him to them.
"Yep this summer.", Brian replied.
"Find any poisoned bears anywhere?", Crenshaw asked smiling.
"Naw, but that doesn't mean that they didn't have a belly ache for a while.", Brain bust out laughing.
"Yeah I can imagine, that ingrate's legacy was that he provided a good dinner and you got his pop gun.", Alan laughed as well.
"Well as they say you can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs. Come on let's go see Brenda she made a seal meat roast for you.", the woman's fiancée told him.
"Oh I forgot did you have Brenda packaged up some seal meat for the lower forty-eight. I heard the head of Team Possible's husband is a hell of a cook, I wanna see if he's as good as Brenda.", Crenshaw replied.
"Yeah she's sending two ten pounders with you, so it's enough to give those guys a taste.", Brian replied slapping his friend on the back.
"Yeah thanks we don't want to spoil them do we?", Alan blurted out.
After dinner Brenda asked, "So Crenshaw you're going to talk to the wife?"
"She's my ex-wife. And yes.", he told her clarifying the term.
"Are you just going to talk?"
"Under supervision Brenda. The shrink will be there until we've made some progress.", he evaded her question, "We'll follow her lead to start."
"Well what you two need is a romp in the sack or out on the ice or something.", the Inuit woman told him.
"I'll just be happy if we don't insult each other. I've hurt that woman too much to expect anything more from her Brenda. I just want her to move on from me and find someone.", Crenshaw, "So far I guess she hasn't...I just wish she would. I'd feel a lot better."
"What about you? What do you have Crenshaw?", Brenda inquired.
"I have my team.", he replied.
"That's not much..."
"It's enough for me.", he told her.
Brenda looked at her fiancée and could see the shake of his head knowing to let it go. "Sit down and let me get your plate I don't want you to starve here.", she mocked.
"Me starve?", he grinned, "Never."
This drew a couple of laughs.
As Brenda put his food down in front of him she decided that her boyfriend didn't grill the musher near hard enough. "So Brian mentioned that you are working with Global Justice...Why?", she asked.
"Well I have some friends there and they are putting on a class and they wanted some 'expert' opinions on some of the things they might encounter.", Crenshaw replied.
"Such as?", the Inuit woman asked.
"Ahhh it's something that you just don't talk about over dinner Brenda. You don't bring it up in polite conversation either.", he told her.
"Crenshaw you never told me what you did in the Army and Brian won't tell. What's the secret?"
"Just like every other woman I ever met Brenda, you're too curious. There are some things that I can't talk about cause they hurt and others because they're classified...So let's just let it drop. I'll tell ya after I get ready to.", he replied
Later after dinner:
"Hey thanks for inviting me. I have to go and say goodbye to the mutts...uh Brian are you and a couple of the other guys still up to make sure they're taken care and exercised while I'm gone?", Crenshaw wanted to make sure.
"Yeah, are you still taking the lead dog?", Brian asked.
"Yeah I've got Shorty with me this trip."
"OK your flight is gonna be here in about eight hours get some rest.", the male Inuit told him.
"Yeah I gotta tuck my little buddies in see ya in the morning.", the musher told his friend as he put on his parka and turned to leave.

Sherman's bar. Middleton, Colorado:
"You know I've been thinking.", Ricky Wheeler looked in his glass which was mostly empty.
"What about cousin?", Bruce Mankey-George countered.
"OK normally Possible's husband gets in every Friday night, but he didn't this time? Why?", the first asked.
"Don't know.", Bruce replied taking a large sip of his own whiskey.
"Maybe he's not coming home, remember that interview on TV? Maybe to get done he's gotta work this weekend.", Ricky Wheeler told the older man.
"That means if he's not here we can do it?", Bruce finally caught on.
"Yeah that's what it means. We have our chance.", the younger cousin smiled.
"Well how do we find out?", Bruce asked.
"We ask. If he's staying at that War College place all we have to do is get their number and ask for information. They have to have him in a place where he can get a phone call right?", Ricky told Bruce.
"Makes sense to me, we'd better go home and tell Jamie what a great idea I had.", the older Mankey cousin smiled.
"Yeah you jerk, you wanna find the numbers to reach Stoppable or do you want me to do it?", Ricky replied.
"You do it and I'll take credit for it.", Bruce kept his smile strong.
"Then do it yourself. That's the last idea I give you.", his younger cousin laughed.
"But..."
"It's time to go. I wonder how you'll explain to Chunky that you have an idea, but you can't remember it and don't know how to make it work. She'll laugh at you because she knows how you are.", Ricky told him.

The Tom Wilson and Hope Chang condo:
"Is that all you're wearing to bed honey?", Tom asked his fiancée.
"Yup are you complaining?", the raven haired beauty asked in return.
"Uh no, no, not complaining at all.", he confessed.
"Don't you like my article of clothing?", Hope teased.
"You're not even wearing your watch, just your engagement ring. I wasn't sure that was considered clothing.", the shocked young man told his beloved.
"Well I'm not taking if off until you put the wedding band on so you have to put up with it.", she smiled worming her way closer to him.
"Honey what are you talking about?", Tom inquired.
"I like sleeping in the nude next to you. Do you like me to do that?"
"Nothing I like better honey.", he replied.
"What are your plans for this weekend?", she asked.
"In the morning we have live fire ranges. Tomorrow night we are out until first light then we have a couple of hours in the infiltration course. I expect to crash at that point.", Tom explained.
"So that's what the girls were talking about when they decided to have a late morning and early afternoon girl bonding thing for late breakfast and then shopping and a girl movie.", Hope told him, "I'll get you up when I get home that way we can go out for dinner."
"Oh who's all going?", Tom asked now interested in what his lady was going to be doing.
"Well me, Bonnie and her sister Jonnie, Tara's coming too. We were trying to get Kim, her sister-in-law and Monique to come along but Monique is out of town till evening with her hubby and Kim's feeling so low since Ron isn't home, Luki is supporting her. We invited Justine too, but she's doing something with Big Mike and is leaving RD with Kim to babysit.", Hope ticked off what who was doing what.
"Sounds like you girls have a plan to keep yourselves busy while the guys get some rack time babe.", Tom replied with a tired smile as he pulled her into another tight hug enjoying the feel of her close to him.

The Ronald and Kimberly Stoppable home:
The former heroine unconsciously felt around behind her for her mate. Opening her eyes for a moment she tearfully remembered where he was at the moment.
'He'll be home in less than a week and then we'll be together for a while, the next time we're loading up everybody and following Ronnie to the War College for the seminars. But I can't let him know this is bothering me so much.'
Something was bugging the red head so she got up and checked on Anna. As softly as she could Kim Stoppable looked in on her blonde haired daughter who showed so much love to everyone. Quietly she padded over to the big girl bed and adjusted the blanket to the chin of the curled up sleeping form. "I love you honey.", she told the baby.
In another part of the large house Kim's best female friend was curled into her husband's chest. Monique opened her eyes for a moment feeling the slow rhythmic breathing of the Ranger Officer hugging her.
'I've only got another week with Bobby before he heads back. How do I get through it? How do those other women do it? How was Becky able to cope with her husband's death? God I'm so scared. I'm so lucky to have Kim and Ron's support.', she shuddered before kissing Major Booth on the cheek and snuggling closer.

The Mankey Compound:
"OK, OK I'll give. You can have the credit for my idea.", Bruce Mankey-George told Ricky Wheeler as they entered the main house trying to get the cousin to divulge the idea again.
"No it was a great idea go ahead and tell them all about it.", the younger cousin smirked having been screwed over by his older cousin before.
"What are you two arguing about?", a woman's voice yelled from the kitchen.
"Hey Alice honey, what smells great.", Bruce looked at the door waiting for her to walk through hoping to sidetrack her.
"I was trying to see if I could use some of the 'good stuff' to make bread. Now what are you two talking about?", she asked now entering the living room they had to party with their recently deceased relatives not many weeks before.
The large hole in the wall had plywood nailed over it to keep the biting Colorado winter winds and snow outside. Bruce glanced at the fix they had engineered that night. 'Well it was too big to use duct tape I guess.', he mused remembering how he got shot down with that idea.
"Hey Bruce you haven't answered Alice's question yet.", Jamie's voice sounded off from the direction of the kitchen.
"Uh it's like this, well it's more of Ricky's idea so maybe he'd better explain it.", Bruce stammered.
"Been stealing other people's ideas again huh Brucie.", Jamie laughed having caught him again.
"Uh not stealing..."
"OK we've trashed cousin Bruce long enough maybe he's learned his lesson this time.", Ricky cut in becoming serious, "The gist of it is we didn't see Stoppable at the airport...That's Josh's ex's current husband by the way, if we're gonna kill him we ought to at least know his name. Now since we figured out that he might be getting close to the end of that class he was teaching at and will be back home in a couple of weeks. He could still be there and our chance to grab the kid and the girls might be now and not later. But if he is we have to move soon."
He paused, "So we have to make sure, I think that we should call his house and ask for him...They don't know my voice so I can do that. Then we need to call up the place he's staying where ever that is too and hear it from his own mouth. Once we know we contact Joshie and we act."
Jamie hearing some pretty good reasoning spoke up, "OK Ricky you use one of the phones that Josh sent and call Possible up and find out if he's home, see it they'll let us know when he'll be home. I'll have someone else call that Army place and see if they'll give out his phone number. Now it's late I think we'd all better go to bed."
"Do we have to?", Bruce whined.
"You don't but the rest of us that have important things to do should get some rest.", Jamie snapped her tone telling him what she thought of his actions and use to the family.

Army War College:
Ron looked over the last essay question reconsidering it. He had a list of four questions the last part of the final was to pick one question and write a five hundred word explanation. 'Yeah this will work. Anyway it'll mean some interesting reading.', he smiled finally happy with the results of rewriting the whole final. Ron saved the file and knew that he had to print out fifty copies of the test. The blond haired former Ranger looked at his watch and sighed, '0400 hours... four AM... gee I hope KP is getting some sleep, Lord do I ever miss her. How did I live so long without her in my life?'
Trying to clear his head the blond man stripped off the jeans he had changed into after class and redressed in his sweats and running shoes. 'It's cold I guess I'd better put on gloves and a stocking cap too. KP will kick my butt if I come home with a cold.', he smiled to himself as he pocketed his condo keys for a nice easy five mile run.
After Ron returned he stretched for ten minutes and showered then hit the rack knowing that he would be getting a call first thing in the morning from his lovely wife and child.

Point Hope, Alaska:
"You like them coming to get you in the middle of the night?", Brian asked.
"No, but this is better; maybe I can sleep this time on the flight down.", Crenshaw replied, "Well maybe Shorty can."
"You care more about that crazy dog than you do about yourself you know that.", Brian told his friend.
"He's my friend, somebody's gotta look after him and that somebody is me.", the former Ranger sniper replied.
"Wonder how your wife is gonna accept him?", the Inuit inquired.
"Doubt it, she's a cat person. Anyway who cares? Six months from now this will be a bad memory and that's about the time you two are tying the knot?", Crenshaw wondered aloud.
"Five months and three days, but who's counting?", Brian smiled.
"You are, listen I can hear the jet coming let's back up and wait for it to shutdown.", Crenshaw smiled and shook his friend's hand, "Remember the dogs like to run, but not on the ice. Oh don't let Brenda feed them too much seal meat it gives them gas. I'll see you when I get done." Just then they could see the small hover jet slow and descend at the end of the run way.
As it taxied to them the two friends hugged. Shorty watched the approaching craft with a growl. "It's alright buddy you'll get used to it.", Alan Crenshaw laughed as the jet pulled up and shut down one engine. In a few moments the medical supplies were transferred and loaded onto the sled the two men had brought out. After that was done Alan Crenshaw and his trusted friend, Shorty, entered the hatch and sat down.
An older one eyed red head looked at the new passengers with a half smile waiting for the Global Justice craft to restart its port engine. Shorty for his part lay down next to his partner's seat and went to sleep.
When the hover jet was in the air again the woman commented, "Nice dog. How long have you had him?"
"Huh? Oh I got him about four years ago. He's about half wild, sometimes he does stuff he shouldn't. I had to leave the rest of the team back at Point Hope.", Alan replied, "Alan Crenshaw Ma'am."
"I know. Betty Director.", she replied.
"Ma'am what are you doing up here?", Crenshaw asked surprised that the leader of Global Justice was on the plane.
"Oh once in a while I like to get out in the field. I can't do it as much as I used to.", she smiled, "What's his name?"
"Oh that's Shorty.", Alan replied feeling at home with the woman.
"Is he going to help you teach that part of the sniper course?", she again smiled.
"Oh you know about that huh?", he asked.
"I should I have the oversight on all training even though Mrs. Stoppable watches it all the time for me. By the way she is on maternity leave so I'm just keeping a better eye on it right now. Will was going to do it, but he's got so much else to do. I had to give him a break somewhere.", she laughed lightly.
"So ole Shorty here will be my nose, eyes and ears out in the woods so yeah I guess. You know a dog can hear and smell stuff that we can't. I depend on him a lot when we're in bear territory.", Alan told her as he reached down to scratch his furry friend's ears. A slight grumble was heard as the large dog raised his head for easier access.
"Well I came out to see one of the outposts and get a chance to talk with you. How are you handling the nightmares Sergeant?", she asked.
"You learn to live with them. I guess Mrs. Turner said something to you right?", he asked in return.
"Yes she did. Mrs. Turner also talked to your ex-wife and she wants to see you again. So GJ is going to give you and her an opportunity to have closure at least. This is the least we can do for dragging you down to the lower forty-eight on such short notice.", Betty confided.
"Hey thanks. Harris needs to have his butt kicked for finding me though...Not that I want to try and kick his sorry behind. But at least thanks for arranging all this with Sarah.", Crenshaw told her.
"I see you brought something besides clothes. What did you do?", she asked.
"Well you have to remember Inuit's don't use much in the way of seasoning. It's pretty hard to get some of that stuff up here.", he saw her nod in understanding.
"And Brenda raves about the taste of it and I heard that Sergeant Stoppable is a descent cook...Well I made it to one of his feasts so I know that he can cook or at least grill. I brought him two ten pound seal roasts to see what he can do with them.", Crenshaw tried to explain.
"Well.", Betty laughed, "If anyone can make them taste good Sergeant Crenshaw, Ronald Stoppable can. I've known that man for years."
"I've heard of some of his exploits Ma'am. I wasn't in his Battalion, but I know some who were. Is it true that he changed his name to Loosse' to hide in the service?", Crenshaw asked.
"Ah that's something you should really talk to him about. There are things that are still pending.", Betty told him a little.
"Pending? After all this time?", he asked.
"Yes his wife was forced away from him when they had just got out of high school. Some people drugged her in an attempt to draw Stoppable out in the open where he could be killed. She was forced to marry this one guy. That's all I'm going to say because several of those people are still on the loose and we at Global Justice would very much like to talk to them.", Betty revealed.
"Well they'd better not get too close to Loosee' he does have a considerable number of hand-to-hand kills during his time in the Rangers. I highly doubt if he'd lose too much sleep over it.", Alan Crenshaw laughed at the prospect of the bad guys finding out what that kid was really like because he knew that the rumors were true. Albert and Walter Harris already told him that.

War College:
Ron was up early and walking to the gym to get some weight training in when he noticed a familiar figure seeming to head in the same direction. "Hey Colonel how are you doing this bon diggity morning.", the blond young man called out to his former S-2.
"Wife went to have coffee with some women in her charity group, don't get poke your head up around her or you'll be bringing your traveling cookout here. What are you doing Stoppable?", John Jackson asked.
"Getting a workout out of the way. I figure it's gonna be a while until KP gets up and I can use the exercise.", Ron replied.
"Well Son I'm gonna hit the gym and then I have to meet Sergeant Morris for some one-on-one hand-to-hand. Wanna come and play?", he asked.
"Well I have a weight workout. I'll see how I feel before I try to take on you tough guys.", Ron smiled as they began the rest of the walk together.
"I can't believe you actually said that with a straight face Stoppable. I'll have to tell John Grant that you're getting better. Uh how's the wife?", he asked knowing that Ron was concerned about his very pregnant Kim.
A couple of hours later a much more relaxed Ron Stoppable was walking him along the snow covered yards with a smile on his face. Sergeant Morris thought his luck was better this time than the last time the two had sparred. It wasn't.
Ron heard the familiar ring of his cell. Flipping it open he said, "Good morning beautiful."
"Thanks Ron should I tell Kim that we're an item now?", Monique's voice sounded over his device.
"Uh no Mo, I thought that you was KP that's all.", Ron explained.
"Oh boohoo, I guess I'll have to go back to my hubby. Anyway Kim is feeding the munchkin right now...well she's letting your oldest feed herself, it's pretty amusing. Anna has a bib on and Kim tried to cover herself with a towel.", Mo continued.
"Oh how did that turn out girlfriend?", he asked.
"Anna's aim is better I'll give her credit for that. Anyway Kim's heading off to Team Possible Headquarters after she showers off. Me and Bobby will babysit her for a couple of hours till she gets back. I guess your wife has to sign a couple of things.", Monique told him.
"Uh can I talk to her?", Ron asked.
"Sure, I thought you'd never ask, here's your two girls.", Monique laughed.
"Ronnie?", Kim asked as Ron heard a "Ronnie" being aped by his child.
"Hi babe I got the tests written last night and now I have to run them off.", he informed his KP.
"What are ya doing now?", she asked.
"Walking back from the gym. Now I've got to run the tests off then study for my own classes too.", he told her.
"Don't you have any time for us.", Kim asked.
"Yeah, but Monique just told me that you have to go into Team Possible Headquarters to sign some things. Now would be a good time for me to get my stuff done while you're doing that.", Ron made his point.
"Don't you miss us?", the red headed woman asked lowly.
"Lord KP don't do this to me, it's pure torture.", he hissed.
"Wonnie I slept in the raw last night. I was thinking of you with your arm around me.", Kim kept talking to him, "Ya know I wanted to snuggle real close."
"Oh God. Mrs. Stopp...I mean cousin Kim what did Stoppable ever do to deserve this?", a man's voice asked from her left.
Kim turned to look at a reddened Major Booth who had his wife's arms wrapped around him. "Just making sure he appreciates me and Anna that's all. That and going off while I'm almost full term.", the red head replied.
"You know he didn't have a choice.", Robert Booth told her.
"Yeah he did, we could have brought Monique with us.", Kim informed him.
"Not likely girlfriend. Bob couldn't change his flight that short of notice, but I could have stayed here.", the African-American fashion diva told her. "Remember we had all those meetings before Christmas."
"No not with all that stuff going on I wasn't gonna let you stay in the house with someone lurking outside.", Kim told her friend before applying more pressure to Ron over the phone.
"Now Wonnie do you want to wash my back...maybe my front too? I'll let you nibble on my toes if you're a good boy.", she promised.
"KP...", the blond wimpered.
After ten minutes more of torture Kim finally let Ron go. Before she said goodbye she put Anna on for a few minutes.

The Mankey Compound:
With a nod from Jamie Ricky Wheeler dialed the phone number he'd been given. "Hello may I please speak to Mr. Stoppable?"
"He's not here right now. May I help you?", a woman's voice asked.
"Ah not really Ma'am do you know when he'll be in. It's one of his old Army buddies from the tenth.", Ricky told her getting some nomenclature from the internet.
"Oh what's the tenth?", the woman asked.
"Oh the tenth division. Anyway do you know when he'll be back?", the voice asked.
"Oh he should be back by Thursday at the latest.", she told him.
"Thanks Ma'am oh this is Major Commander Steve Slammer his old CO, I'll call Thursday or Friday then.", he told her a name so that she wouldn't get suspicious.
"Thanks.", Monique replied, "I'll tell him when he gets in."
Ricky hung up the phone and laughed, "Dumb bitch. Jamie, Stoppable won't be back till the middle of next week. You wanna call Joshie boy?"
"Yeah give me the phone.", the fat woman replied.
After he picked up Jamie told Josh about the call that cousin Ricky had made. "OK Amy's listening and she agrees with me that we should do this over the weekend. Get the guys out tonight and watch the targets. I think we should grab them tomorrow just after dark. Chunky do you have phone number nine charged up?", he asked.
"Yeah it's charged all the time like all the others.", she replied.
"OK then that's the phone that we'll make all of our contacts on. Tomorrow at dark get ready cause we're gonna finally change the Mankey DNA for the better. Make sure you have the handguns to grab the chicks, we'll hit Possible's house ourselves.", Josh told her.
"Why not the machine guns Joshie? Some of your cousins are itching to use them. They wanna prove how tough we are now.", she asked.
"Jamie, Jamie, Jamie, do the Police know that we have those?...No they don't. If they see we have automatic guns they might bring in the Army instead of Police till we have the amnesty. So we only want to use that stuff to fend people away from the compound.", he tried to get her to listen to reason.
"The guys were hoping Joshie..."
"I know they are Jamie, but we want that stuff to be a surprise. If they know ahead of time the surprise will be gone.", he told her, "Not only that but we don't have all that much ammunition. Where we got ours...well let's say that it's Federal time behind bars.", he told her.
"OK, OK we'll only take a couple of the machineguns to grab the women Josh and we won't fire them off unless there's a problem.", she laughed.
"I guess that's the best I'm gonna get, anyway this will give us the most nightfall. We should be alright. What's the forecast in Middleton?", he asked.
"Uh another storm coming in so snow tonight and tomorrow maybe the day after too.", she replied.
"Well remember we can fly in anything so make sure that you're all tucked in. I'll call while we're setting up tomorrow. See ya cousin.", Josh told her before he disconnected.
"Amy our dreams have come true. Let's clean the rifles and make sure we are ready with the handguns. Like I told Chunky I think we only need the handguns maybe only one or two of the black guns.", he told her.
"I like the idea let's not bring all the monkeys, just a few of the gorillas and the Fukushimas. Kimmie will freak out when she sees his face Joshie. She won't be able to move. Too bad I don't have anymore of that stuff we used to control her years ago. Oh well that's just too bad, we'll have to do it this way.", the fat geneticist giggled with excitement as she got up to go to the room with all the guns.
"As long as the family ends up with the brat, the money and Kim's jewelry with her either messed up or dead, and Stoppable ends up in a box I really don't care. I'll be free at last and that stupid loser will be worm food.", Josh laughed as he got up and followed his cutie out of the room that they had been snuggling in.
Josh pulled his girlfriend into a hug and began to dance with her to celebrate the victory he was sure was within his grasp.
"Hey guys come on we're gonna clean some guns and stuff. Amy will make a nice big dinner and we need to go to sleep early tonight cause we have a lot to do tomorrow.", Josh told the Fukushimas merrily. He saw them get up to obey.
An hour later Josh stowed the second M-16 into the stealth hover craft. 'OK all the guns are clean and we've filled the clips (not realizing the difference between a clip and a magazine). Now that Amy's fixing something to eat we need to eat good and make some stuff for the trip too.', he mused as he left the stealthy craft.
After dinner Josh and several Fukushimas cleaned out the gorilla cages and restocked them with freshly cut vegetables and fruit that Amy had prepared before.
'We'll take off in the late morning that way if we take an indirect route no one will be suspicious if they catch us on their radars.', Josh continued to mused as he thought of the good things that will be happening soon.

The Army War College:
The former Ranger finally got home and was able to shower. 'Ah this is so good. I have to call KP again, but I'll bet she's already left. Oh well I'll try anyway. I'll bet she's trying to con Becky into giving her some real coffee.', Ron chuckled to himself as the hot water cascaded down his body.
Finally done he quickly dressed and called Kim back up, "Hey Monique is KP still around?"
"No?...OK I'll call later...Yeah you can let her know that I'm just staying in for the rest of the day. I'll make some lunch and dinner for myself. Oh tomorrow night early I'm going out with Colonel Jackson and Martha, he invited me while we were training this morning.", Ron explained, "Hey if I don't get a chance later have fun on your side trip to Fungo City...Never been there maybe someday ya never know." Ron chuckled with his friend on the phone before he disconnected.
Ron began a light lunch while he opened the file for the exam he just wrote and told it to print and collate fifty copies. Before his lunch was done cooking he checked over the copies to make sure that they were all fine and ready to go. He turned off the stove and let the soup sit for a few minutes while he placed the finished tests in a folder and then in his briefcase.
He sat back down and opened up some of his own reading for a couple of subjects that he was working online with when the phone rang. "Anna Stoppable's pathetic old man.", he quipped not looking to see who it was first on the caller ID.
"Mr. Stoppable this is the college housing office, we'd like confirmation when you are going to be out of your unit.", a lady's voice asked.
"I'll be done here on Thursday morning just like I stated earlier.", Ron replied.
"Are you going to be back and are you moving all your things back home?", she asked.
"Lady I just have my clothes and briefcase and computer. Remember the place was already furnished. Are you guys going to be by to inspect the place before I check out?", Ron asked.
"Uh...uh we'll do what we usually do.", she replied.
"OK then what time is one of the inspectors gonna be by?", Ron was wondering if she was new or what.
"Uh we'll be out around 7:30 in the morning.", she replied.
"Do you mean Oh seven hundred thirty hours?", Ron inquired.
"Isn't that what I said Mr. Stoppable?", the woman's voice asked again.
"You did, but normally people on a military installation use military time.", Ron told her.
"Oh I'm new.", she replied.
"May I have your name in case I need to talk to someone?", Ron asked.
"Uh...I can't do that Sir.", she told him.
"Why?", Ron wanted to know.
"That's our policy.", she stated.
"Oh...when did that become policy? It sure wasn't the last time I taught here.", Ron griped.
"It just changed.", she offered, but at this point Ron could feel something yet he was too busy to bother with it.
"OK thanks.", Ron replied as the phone went dead.
'I wonder oh well I'll ask Colonel Jackson tomorrow night why the housing office representatives don't give out their names anymore.', Ron thought as he began reading the uneasy feeling slowly subsided the more engrossed he became in his reading.
It was nearly two hours after the mysterious call had ended when Ron's phone rang again. "Hi Ronnie. Moni told me you called.", Kim's voice came through clear and strong.
"Is everything alright honey?", he asked.
"Yeah as of now I am officially on maternity leave too with Team Possible. Becky can run day-to-day stuff and you're going to be home pretty soon. So we're covered.", she told him.
"Yeah you're right. Honey I love you.", he told her, "I can't wait to hold you again."
"Me too now before I go much further there's someone here who wants to talk. So you can have some fun with her for a bit.", Kim told him handing the phone off to the tot who's patience was running on low at the moment.
"Daadddy.", the sweet young voice called out.
"Honey have you been a good girl?", Ron asked.
"Yeah Daddy, unca Bob and aunt Moni were here. They went to a fun place though.", the little blonde girl tried to tell Ron all about it.
"That sounds like fun honey. I'm glad you are having a good time.", he told his daughter.
"Daddy I gotta go there's tiger stories on. I have to see them.", she squealed.
"OK honey give the phone back to Mommie.", Ron instructed.
Finally after nearly another hour Ron had to get off. "Honey I'll call ya before bed. I still have some studying to do. Then tomorrow, except for dinner with the Jacksons, I'll be home all day.", Ron told her as he hung up.

The Mankey Compound:
"Alright guys we haven't done this in a while, but we have to know where the women are so that we can grab them without too much trouble.", Jamie told her family members.
"Are we gonna have to watch all their homes?", Stevie Klug-Mankey asked.
"No only the Rockwaller girl's home and the King girl's home and that girl who is running their operation too...Oh yeah I forgot get the Chinese girl. I didn't have the chance to have fun with Possible's sister-in-law so I'll take the first shot at the Chinese girl.", Jamie stated to her family.
"You don't want to get even with Possible's sister-in-law?", Harvey George asked.
"No she likes to kill. We'll just stay away from her. Any questions? Alright don't get too close. Raul meet with me after all the men leave.", Jamie told them.
"Yeah sure cousin.", he replied.
After they all left she asked him, "Are you and Ricky ready to make contact with those Army guys that you talked to before?"
"Yeah when do you want them?", he inquired.
"Tomorrow afternoon. Make sure that they don't know anything. I want them to help take that woman Possible hired, I'll have them work with Phyllis and Mortimer.", she told him.
"Sure cousin.", Raul replied.
Raul quickly caught Ricky and told him the plan.
Ricky replied, "Alright let's call them up and meet to let them know. You wanna use them with Phyllis to take down that woman that Possible hired?"
"Yeah that might work out best cousin, but Jamie wants Mortimer to help Phyllis instead of us. After they get back it'll be time to take a stroll in the woods.", Raul explained.
"Man those two guys are our friends Raul, I don't like it but they're not Mankey's.", he continued as they walked out to their beat up car before calling the two Army guys.
"You got Chris, what do ya want?", the former Ranger hissed over the phone leaving this one on just for the Mankey's.
"Meet us tomorrow at 2 in the afternoon at Ginger's Pub. We'll be done by midnight.", Ricky told the Army guy.
"You want us armed?", Campbell asked.
"Nah we'll give you everything you need.", Ricky told them.
"Sure we'll be there. You can count on us.", Chris replied.

The Army War College:
Ron looked over his breakfast with a slight smile, 'Well she isn't here so I suppose I can drink all the real coffee I want to.' As he was in to his second pot and started on the waffles that he had indulged himself with Ron was feeling much better when the phone rang.
Ron looked at the caller ID. "Morning honey. Are you drinking real coffee this bon diggity day?", he asked.
"Guilty.", Kim replied.
"Hey no problems I am too.", he chuckles.
"Did Monique and Major Booth leave yet?", he asked.
"No not yet they're leaving right after breakfast.", Kim replied.
"Who made it?", Ron was now curious.
"I did. It went pretty well.", Kim told him.
Later they were saying their goodbyes when Kim told Ron, "Hold on a second I think that's Luki, she's spending the day with me to help watch over the kids. Later Ron-san is going to be dropped off by Hirotaka and RD is gonna be coming over to play with Anna. So we're gonna be busy here in a while."
"OK honey. I'll call you after I have dinner with the Jacksons then. You take care and remember to call your Mom if you start having contractions.", he reminded her.

Two hours later they were done and cleaning their weapons.
"Man I am wasted I wonder what that call was about from those morons.", Chris wondered out loud.
"Don't know, but Du wants you and Charlie to run this into the ground. Make sure that you both have your sidearms.", Albert told them.
"But those clowns said not to come armed."
"Do you trust them? If they start to do anything illegal arrest their asses. You have your badges and wires. Don't pussyfoot around with them.", Ben added, "We already know they have it in for Ron and his family, I wouldn't put it past them to start bumping his friends off...They think that they are above the law. So have your Colts with some spare mags. I'd take backup too. You guys will have so much clothing on they won't be able to tell anyway."
"OK Sarge I guess you're right.", Charlie added.
"Right, remember, stay together and don't trust any of those Assholes. If you go to arrest them and they resist I'd just kill them and we won't have to worry about them anymore.", Ben told them.
"Uh are you sure?", Charlie asked.
"Yeah remember a couple from that family tried to kill Kim's brother and sister-in-law. Don't give them the chance to make widows out of your wives.", Albert added.
"Alright we'll be armed.", Chris told them.
"Body armor too. Remember no chances.", Ben cautioned.
The two men who became fast friends in Sergeant Loose's squad headed to their homes to make sure that everything was ready. Both had been in hairy situations before, but after listening to the two older former NCOs they decided to take no chances. Both men strapped their birthday presents from the year before from their wives on to their ankles. Each also loaded up two extra hi capacity magazines and concealed them.
It was early afternoon when the two former Rangers pulled up in front of the tavern that they were meeting Ricky Wheeler and his cousin Raul Ritz.
"Hey guys over here.", Raul called out.
"You gotta job for us?", Charlie asked lowly as they reached the table.
"Yeah, but you're going to be working with a couple of our cousins cause we have something else that needs to be done.", Ricky told them lowly.
Chris looked around with furrowed eyes before asking, "Are you sure we can trust them?"
"Yeah we can, now you guys aren't armed are ya?", Raul asked.
"Us? You told us not to carry, but we thought you might need some extra fire power.", Chris interrupted.
"When we go outside you can hand them over. You're just going to be there to carry loads...if you know what I mean. Let's get going.", Raul instructed.
Once the four men were outside and walking back to their autos Ricky told them, "Alright hand them over."
Chris and Charlie looked at each other, neither wanted to give up their prized Colt autos but with a mutual nod they reached to the small of their backs and pulled out an almost identical pair of the large Colts. Raul and Ricky's eyes nearly popped out of their heads when the two men removed the magazines and pulled the slides back to eject the rounds that were in the chambers. Both Chris and Charlie handed over the handguns but kept the magazines.
"Hey what are you doing?", Raul asked.
"You said unarmed. You have our toys but you don't have the stuff that makes them dangerous.", Charlie told him.
"I want those clips.", Raul hissed.
"Nope I don't trust people I don't know completely.", Charlie replied, "If ya don't like it give us our guns back and we'll go our own way and you can do your own dirty work."
"I'm ordering you...", Raul stopped when his cousin's hand set on his shoulder. At that moment neither had any idea of how close they were to meeting their maker.
"It's alright guys Raul's just a little tense. Keep your clips. When this is over we'll give ya back your guns. You can trust us. Now we've got to go to the meeting place where you're gonna meet Mort and Phyllis. You're gonna go with them.", Ricky revealed.
"OK let's go.", Chris told them as the two former Rangers and current members of Team Possible got in their car to follow the Mankeys.
Seeing his partner reach into his pocket and pull out the magazine Chris mimicked his close friends lead and laid his mag in the coffee cup holder.
Charlie opened up a small box and removed two items, checking the serial numbers he quickly loaded up one of the Colts and handed it to his best friend while he loaded his own and slipped it into the small of his back.
"OK, OK don't say I told you so.", Chris grunted.
"But I did, bet they never thought we'd have two more of these.", Charlie chuckles.

The Army War College:
Ron sat back catching up on his reading from his own classes. One of the Professors at the War College had volunteered to tutor him in some of the class work he had from Upperton. If not for that Ron knew that he never would get out of college because of his teaching the seminars.
He looked at the phone just after it rang, 'I wonder who it is this time?'. He looked at the caller ID. 'Hmmm they can't be missing me that bad.'
"Yeah honey what's up?", Ron asked.
"Charlie and Chris were contacted by the Mankeys and they have to meet with them. It was something about a job.", Kim told her husband.
"Do you know what it's about?", Ron asked.
"I'm not sure, but it has something to do with women.", she replied.
"Well those two can take care of themselves. Don't worry too much. The thing that worries me is that the Mankeys tend to stay in their own group. Where is everybody?", Ron asked.
"Right now they are at rest. They were all in the simulators and they have to be beat.", Kim explained.
"OK honey let them rest. I have a funny feeling though. Why don't you invite Becky over for tea or something and bring her up to speed."
"Yeah I can do that I'll invite her over for tea or something, see ya later Ron. I love you.", his red headed wife told him.
"I love you too babe.", Ron replied then disconnected. 'Something's wrong I'd better contact Sensei.'

Becky Stoner was worried as she headed over to her Boss's home, 'I wonder what Kim wants?'
Luki Possible opened the door, "Becky-san it is good to see you again."
"Yeah Luki, is Kim here?", she asked.
"Yes Becky-san she is expecting you please enter.", the sister-in-law told her, "Excuse me but I have three to babysit. I apologize, but Kim-san is in her office."
"It is I who should apologize to you Luki...thanks.", Becky replied.
Finding Kim with a cup of coffee in her hands Becky asked, "What's going on Boss?"
"We're not sure, but Chris and Charlie have been contacted by my ex's family and it has something to do with women. As of now we don't know anymore and I'm a little nervous since Ronnie's not home right now.", Kim started.
"What do you want the team to do then Kim?", Becky asked beginning to worry herself.
"As of right now make sure that everyone is rested and packing. I don't trust my former in-laws further than I can toss GJ. We also need to notify Will.", Kim continued, "Maybe it's nothing but I don't wanna get caught with my pants down."
"OK do you want to circle up the wagons and wait this out then.", the spokesperson for Team Possible asked.
Kim thought for a few moments, "No some of the girls are going out tonight. Let's not freak them out anymore than we have to. Now you want a cup of coffee? I have some coffeecake too."
"Sure Kim you know how to tempt a gal, I have time. Will's going to be home in a few hours he's got that weird shift since Dr. Director's out of town. I don't have to tell you how that works.", Becky smiles.
"No you don't Becky now what about that wedding that you two have planned?", Kim asked moving on now as they exited the office.
"Just that I'd like one of my best friends and my boss to be my Matron of Honor. What do you say Kim? A summer wedding, in the middle of the week?", Becky asked.
"Are you sure Becky? I mean you have relatives and..."
"I want the people around me who have helped me so much and I can't use Ron...Well I'm going to ask him to give me away.", Becky told her.
"Are you sure? I mean if you are I'd be glad to be honored that way.", Kim asked as they entered the kitchen.
"Yeah...I am. Will's picked a real good friend of yours to be the Best Man.", Becky replied.
"Who?", Kim asked now in full pre-wedding mode, "Come on spill Becky."
"Wade.", she revealed.
"Wade Load?", Kim asked clarifying who.
"Yeah, but I don't know if Will's asked him yet so keep it quiet for now.", Becky told her friend.
"OK, OK I won't mention anything. Do you have your dress yet?", Kim asked.
"Uh no I don't."
"Do you want Monique to make it for you? It's not like she won't. She's good at it and since she owes Ron a couple of favors we could ask.", Kim's mind was working overtime now.
"Sure I hadn't thought about it though.", Becky replied.
"We'll ask her when she gets back tomorrow then.", Kim told her.

The two cars met the van in a downtown parking lot. "These the two guys?", Phyllis asked.
"Yeah they were packin' but we disarmed them. You don't have to worry now.", Ricky revealed handing over their the two guys hand guns.
"Good thing you did cousin. We don't want any mistakes.", Mortimer Beitz told them.
"Get in you two.", Mort motioned to the former Rangers.
Chris glanced at Charlie for a moment before getting in. After the doors closed Mortimer asked them, "What's your names? I don't want to call you hey you.", he told them.
"I'm Chis Campbell this is Charlie Yates.", Chris told the one who seemed to have a gun under his coat.
"You guys know what we're doing?", Mort questioned them.
"Nope just that we're supposed to pick up some girls. I guess you have a party or something going on.", Chris added.
"Yeah party or something. You have it.", the Mankey laughed elbowing the woman next to him turning back to the front thinking that the two in back weren't going to be a problem after all.

The Becky Stoner condo:
The beautiful woman stopped and looked at the gun pointed at her face. "Come with us and you'll live bitch.", Phyllis instructed with narrow eyes.
"W...what's going on?", Becky replied on the landing in front of her door. 'If I can just get inside.'
"Don't even think about it you whore. I'll gut you where you stand.", a large menacing form named Mortimer Beitz warned.
"Huh?", Becky tried to buy some time when something hard hit her behind the ear. Becky fell down only to be picked back up.
"I said move bitch.", Phyllis told her as she raised up the gun again.
Becky then noticed three things, Chris and Charlie and a third form that just got there.
"What the fuck do you think your doing?", a very pissed off Tom Wilson yelled as he got there.
"Get the fuck outta here punk.", Mortimer warned as he lunged with his hunting knife coming down in an overhead strike.
"Huh?", Tom grunted as he sprung into action as he saw his two friends began to reach behind their backs. The ditzy Yamanouchi trained Ranger caught the downward knife strike with an upper X block and he quickly grabbed the hand and stepped out of the way as he accelerated the knife into Mortimer's gut going in all the way to the hilt. Then he turned the knife ninety degrees and made a lateral cut.
Phyllis for her part just stood there gawking as her cousin gutted himself in front of her as she watched him fall to his knees. "I'll kill this bitch if you don't back off.", Abercrombie-Mankey-George threatened.
Not being done Tom Wilson already had his custom Kimber .45 out and squeezed the trigger. Not saying anything the .45 Slug whizzed past Becky's ear and into the left eye of the hapless and soon-to-be-dead Mankey cousin. The slug continued through Phyllis's skull creating a large hole, with a significant part of her brains splattered all over Becky's front door making a mess. No one paid any notice as Phyllis crashed to the decking.
"Damn Tommy we were going to wait till we got in the van to see what was going on.", Charlie Yates told him now you made a mess. I guess we'd better go get our primaries, they left them in the van.
Ignoring his buddy for a moment Tom grabbed Becky and hugged her seeing she was trembling, "Get your gun boss, I think something is going down. Take your time I don't want you to see what I'm going to do to your other friend."
Nodding she avoided most of the goo and unlocked her front door and went inside. "Sarge.", Tom looked at Yates, "You wanna go with her?"
"Yeah but what are you going to do?", Charley asked.
"Gonna get some answers. I don't want Becky to see this.", Tom replied as he nodded to Chris to come with him over to the gasping Mortimer.
"Y...you killed Ph...Phyllis. Y...you ha..have to help me. I'm bleeding.", he groaned.
"What's the plan asshole?", Tom became serious.
"You need to help me.", Mort pleaded.
"Huh. I didn't hear you.", Tom stated as he stepped on Mortimer's guts spilled out on the landing.
"AHHHHH that hurts! You can't do that to me I'm a Mankey.", the ingrate hissed in more pain then he ever imagined.
"Soon you're going to be a dead Mankey too. Now talk before I start walking again. You know I might have to scuff my feet to get the shit off them.", Tom began to growl.
"We're supposed to grab Possible's friends and hide them in the compound.", Mort finally realized the only way to end his agony was to spill.
"Anything else?", Chris asked becoming very pissed off.
"Yeah...", was the now sobbing reply.
"What is it?", Chris suddenly worried as he began to kick the prick.
"Josh is gonna grab Possible's brat to experiment on. Then we're going to get her to breed.", he gasped as another kicked almost raised him up off the landing.
Sergeant Tom Wilson picked the ingrate up off the wood landing, "When is it happening?"
"Now.", Mortimer replied weakly.
"Sarge, stay with this asshole pervert. I gotta get to Sergeant Stoppable's house before Armageddon happens.", Tom told his friend.

Middleton Mall:
A group of people approached the women who were on their way into the Cinema Plex to watch the planned movie.
Bonnie stopped and looked at the men and women who blacked their way. "Please excuse me.", she stated.
"You're coming with us Miss Rockwaller.", a fat man told her.
"What makes you think that?", Bonnie growled.
"Bonnie do what he says, they have guns.", Tara told her friend as she became aware of the hardware their abductors were showing.
"Smart bitch maybe you're the brains of the outfit. I might have to break you in myself.", the fat guy told her as he aimed at Tara's face, "There's only three of you. Anymore supposed to meet you?"
Seeing all this going down Bonnie told him knowing there's now going to be more than one pissed off Ranger, "Yeah, there's one inside."
"Good Lisa and Spineless you come with me while this little slut helps us to entice that girl to join us. Everyone else head to the van.", Harvey 'Big Ed' Mankey instructed.
Big Ed nudged the teal eyed brunette, "Come on sweetie. Remember we have guns and we'll start using them if you know what I mean."
"Yeah, yeah hold on to your little toy.", Bonnie told him as he swatted her on the back with the gun to remind her.
"You prick.", she threatened.
"Ah a spirited one. I guess I'll have to break you myself.", Harvey laughed as he pushed her.
Soon they were standing in front of Hope Chang. "Hey Bonnie where's the rest?"
"Uh...they..."
"Shut the fuck up bitch, now you.", Big Ed pointed at Hope, "Are coming with us."
"And why should I do that asshole?", Hope was now more than ticked off at this jerk.
In reply Spineless simply pointed his own handgun at Tommy Wilson's fiancée. "OK, OK I'm coming but you just bought yourself a grave.", Hope growled as Spineless spun her around and smacked her in the teeth with his pistol showing just how big of a man he was not caring that he was drawing the attention of people around him.
Hope grabbed her face as blood dribbled off her chin.
"Dammit you're not supposed to damage this one. Jamie wanted to play with her tonight.", Big Ed reminded him.
"I was showing her who was boss.", he grunted as he lead the way out of the Mall, "Anyway it won't affect what Jamie wants to do."
'Tommy I need you.', the Chinese American beauty worried as she felt Bonnie reach for her hand squeezing it.

The Ronald and Kimberly Stoppable home:
Kim and Luki were playing with the three children when the door splintered open with a loud crash. Kim looked in awe as a face that she hadn't seen in years rushed inside. "Master.", was all she could say.
(Dishonored one.), Luki growled as she sprang between them protectively.
Kim noticed that her former husband was inside. "The girl, get the girl. Nothing else matters.", he urged pointing to Anna.
Kim moved to place herself in front of her daughter to protect her when a large gorilla with the same face as the man who tormented her years before grabbed her arm. Kim kicked the wall of muscle and just bounced off landing near one of the panic buttons. Kim staggered to her feet and slammed her palm down on the bright red button causing an alarm to sound in the house and another one to sound in Global Justice.
Without thinking twice she leaped forward again in defense of her child.
"Hurry up the bitch hit the alarm.", Josh yelled as he aimed his gun at her head, "Can't you idiots hear it?"
"Aaaiiiii.", someone screamed.
Luki though being outnumbered palmed a shuriken and threw it at Josh. He looked on in horror as it embedded itself in his own perfect shoulder. The lithe ninja sprang into the three Fukushimas with her Sais out and spinning. As she flew past one she tore the jugular out of one of the dishonored one's clones leaving a spray of blood and gore.
While this was going on Anna smacked away from her the paws of one gorilla, with a resounding whack and a giggle.
"Anna get away from those monkeys.", Kim cautioned as she took on another Fukushima and laid him out with a solid front kick to the groin.
Luki crouched, drew her Glock and aimed at one gorilla that was trying to grab her charge. The ninja aimed and fired three rounds putting one in the ear and one in the eye killing it. Then she turned her attention to another Fukushima.
Josh seeing the Japanese woman's attention diverted aim and squeezed the trigger trying to get to her head.
Kim rushed her former husband and grabbed him by an arm and flung him into a wall knocking him out.
Then Kim hurried over to her friend as she saw Luki slump to the floor holding her side.
"Save Anna and yourself.", Luki hissed as her eyes began to take on a glassy look.
Kim knew there wasn't much that could be done for her sister-in-law and tried to get the children away before another gorilla grabbed Kim's arm and flung her into a door jam. "Anna.", Kim moaned as her vision blurred with the pain and blood began to trickle from her mouth.
Anna could see her Mommy go down. She also could feel her friends in danger as well. 'Mommy will be OK.', she understood as the thought came to her from somewhere.
One of the Fukushimas tried to grab the brown haired brown eyed American boy as he suddenly began to glow. RD quickly avoided and turned to help the blonde haired girl when a gorilla grabbed him by the shoulder and slammed him into a wall. The youngster didn't understand why he suddenly hurt as the room went dark.
For Ron-san he faced down the two gorillas when one of the Fukushimas hit him in the back of the head knocking him out distracting Anna when they finally got a hold of her. The blinding blue flash caused one of the Fukushima clones to cover his eyes when the two gorillas finally grabbed her.
From behind them a fat form pulled a needle out of a case. With a smile Dr. Amy Hall stuck the needle into the child's arm and pushed the plunger. Anna struggled for a few more moments before she went limp. "Let's go.", Amy cried out.
Josh was helped to his feet by another Fukushima and began to stumble out the door. Seeing people taking her cousin Luki Possible sucked up the pain and focused her mind for one last attack for her family. She looked around and saw her Glock reaching for it she aimed for those attackers that were left. She fired three times into the Japanese clone of the dishonored one dropping him to the floor when she saw Josh turn towards her. Luki fired once and as she almost sagged again with the loss of blood. This shot hit Josh in the left shoulder near where the shuriken had struck the artist knocking him down.
The rest of the attackers fled leaving the Stoppable home in shambles with the two children curled up in balls and the two women down one of which was trying to get to her sister-in-law.

Global Justice Headquarters:
Agent Rose's eyes snapped up as the siren blared into her ear. Without asking permission she slapped her hand down on the Emergency Button and called for Deputy Director Du. While doing this Agent Gibbons tried call the Stoppable home. "Go ahead Donna.", Will's voice came over the intercom.
"We just got an alarm from the Stoppable's Sir.", she made it concise.
"Did you call them yet to see if someone just hit the button by accident?", he asked his voice hardening.
"Sir I think this is for real, there no response.", she told him.
"Security Team...Move it now.", he ordered.
"Yes Sir they're all ready scrambling as we speak. Do you want me to notify Mr. Stoppable?", she asked.
"No not until we know for sure there's a problem. He's too far away right now anyway.", he told her, "Listen I'm on my way there now get that ST moving."
"They have already left Sir and I have a heavily armed squad of two Strykers being readied.", she told him.
Just then a phone call came to the desk. "Mrs. Stoppable?", Agent Rose asked.
"No she is down we have been attacked. There are injuries."
"How many injuries? How serious are they?", Rose asked trying to get a handle on this and was busing feeding this conversation to Will Du as well.
"Kim-san is hurt bad, so am I. Two children are hurt as well I am afraid to move them...Hurry before anyone dies. Kim-san's child has been kidnapped...hurry.", the young woman told them.
"Who is this?", Agent Rose asked.
"Listen hurry. I have to go one of the attackers is trying to get away. I can't let that happen.", the woman's voice ended with a click of the phone.

Luki could see the young man in front of her. Wincing in pain from her stomach she came up and turned her right hand into a fist and brought it down on Josh's ear, knocking him back out. She was doubled over in agony as she again checked on Kim and the two children. Luki knew she was losing the battle. An idea coming to her, she opened up the door to the basement. Stumbling down the stairs she reached the closed door where she knew that the construction company kept their tools for the construction project. Seeing a tool that had fascinated her in the past, Luki reached for a tool Mr. Flagg had once showed her how to use.
Half smiling to herself, the young ninja grabbed the battery powered framing nail gun and climbed back up the stairs stumbling twice.
Knowing that she wouldn't last much longer Luki grabbed one of Josh's hands and held it up against a doorframe. She shoved the nose piece of the nail gun into the palm of his hand and pulled the trigger once, then twice. Then she took his other hand and repeated the process.
The gallant ninja stumbled back and fell to her knees. She noticed that her vision was dimming as she began to hear sirens in the distance. 'I hope they're for us.', she thought as the room turned black for her.
As she fell over Luki didn't notice three friendly forms rushing to her aid.

"How bad is it?", Will asked knowing he wasn't going to like it.
"We have a War Zone here Sir. Both adults are injured as well as one of the attackers that survived. We have two children injured and possibly one kidnapped as well as a kidnap attempt on one of the other people here. We have another crime scene three blocks away where one perp is dead and another one is gutted.", the Agent told his boss, "Those that are injured here have been sent by ambulance to Middleton General. They are Kimberly Anne Stoppable and her sister-in-law Luki Possible. The two children were roughed up pretty bad, but the two women are pregnant and one my lose hers."
"Shit...OK I have to notify the husbands.", Will told them.
"I have already notified Mrs. Possible's husband, he is on the way to the hospital. We haven't been able to reach Mr. Stoppable."
"Don't worry I know where he is, send a hover jet to the Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania and expedite that order too. Move it unless you want the-end-of-the-world.", Will told him as he opened his phone and looked into the directory.
Once Will had the number he punched it in.
"Ron is that you? ...Good pack your stuff you're needed here...Listen calm down it won't do any good...We have Josh Mankey...B...but they have Anna...I know what it means...but you have to get here. Kimberly is hurt bad and it's about the babies too. We might lose your sister-in-law."
"I have a hover jet on the way get ready...We have more bad news, but this is the most important...Damn you Ron pull it together they need you!...Yeah the craft is going to bring you right to the hospital...OK I'll tell, some of Kim's friends have been kidnapped too."
"I'll fill you in. I already have your team activated. They're drawing ammunition... Ron I'd like to come with you on this...Yeah I know what you're gonna do and I don't care. I want in...OK we'll talk.. Now get your stuff and notify that Colonel Welch too...Wade will call you when the jet is close. Listen don't harsh on him, his Jonnie was one of the ones kidnapped too and he's a basket case.", Will told the former Ranger.
"Will is that everything?", Ron asked getting pissed.
There was pause. "They tried to kidnap Rebecca too. They tried to hurt her...she's never done anything to anyone. But she's fine. Right now she's standing guard over your Kimberly.", Will sniffed, "Your Sergeant Wilson saved her."
"Is he alright?", Ron asked.
"No they grabbed Miss Chang. He's trying to stay calm, but I can see that he's ready to blow up.", Will told him.
"You have her chipped right?", Ron asked
"Yeah and I have Tara and Bonnie chipped too. Are you gonna want us to get them or are you?", Will asked.
"What do you mean?", Ron asked.
"The women that have been kidnapped; Bonnie Rockwaller and her sister, Tara Turner and Hope Chang. We know where they are!.", Will revealed.
"Let me make a call Will don't move until I call you about it first. If they're in contact with the ones who have Anna they might lose her.", Ron cautioned.
"Yeah like I said before pack your stuff, by my estimation the jet is thirty minutes out.", Will told him.

Ron himself had to make a couple of calls. "Sir this is Stoppable...yes Sir I'm fine. Listen I need to drop the tests off for someone else to administer...Sir someone attacked my family ...it's KP and Anna. KP's been hurt and Anna's been kidnapped...No I have it. I have all the resources that a man could want. You have to stay out of this, GJ has a jet coming for me... No Sir it's something that I have to do, you have to stay out of the way. I might be going where you can't...Listen Sir thanks for taking the chance with me.", Ron told his old CO.
A/N: So this begins the climax for Revenge and Reversal. After the next few chapters it marks the end of the large stories in this ARC until much later though there will still be some smaller stories, also the direction will change too. I am thanking everyone in advance for all the support that you the readers and the reviewers have given me for the last year and a half.
As always a big bow should be taken by CajunBear73 for all the work and support he has given me.
(And the constant revisits to the porcelain god for all those Josh/DNAmy love scenes… Oh hell here comes another flashback!)-CB73
Back to me. I hope you liked where this went. The next couple of chapters will be similar, but there will also be heroism from the unlikiest places.
