Chapter 54 – Gemini's Plan

(10:46pm)

Kim, Rufus, and Slam were on the other path, sneaking into the entrance.

"Agent K Stoppable, it was wise that you chose The Great Blue as your mate." Slam said. "It was not wise for Warmonga and Warhok to provoke his rage."

"Thanks, Slam! I do have a certain taste in men...specially blonde brown-haired guys with freckles." Kim replied.

"I tried to convince the Lorwardian Council that the invasion would be an extremely bad idea. The Council did not take too kindly to the people who dared to oppose their decisions." Slam said. "During the purge, they sentenced a quarter of the opposition to death. The other three-quarters fled in exile from our homeland."

"And you were part of that quarter that was sentenced to death before we met you, right?" Kim asked.

"That is correct, Agent K Stoppable!" Slam said.

The three finally came to the unguarded back entrance of the base, but it was locked.

"Back to the ish at hand, we need to find a way to get in." Kim said, looking around for a weakness.

"Why not use the mole rat to access that vent over there?" Slam replied. He pointed to a vent about 20 feet away from the door.

"Good idea!" Kim said before putting Rufus down.

"Rufus, climb into that vent and open the door from the outside." Kim instructed the mole rat.

Rufus chittered, "Yes!" and climbed up the walls into the gutters to get to the vent.

Ron and Ken, meanwhile, were coming to.

"Uhh...where are we?" he moaned, rubbing his eyes to take in his surroundings. It happens to be the same cage that they were trapped in mere moments ago.

"Ken! Wake up!" Ron exclaimed.

"Ohhh...my head." Ken moaned, "Next time, Agent R Stoppable, try not to stumble on any hidden tripwires."

"Don't take my clumsiness into account!" Ron countered before Gemini interrupted from the shadows.

"Gentlemen, gentlemen, we need not to interrupt your little argument." he said, holding a quivering Pepe in his arms. "Especially you, Mr. Stoppable, aka the 'Ron Factor'."

"Gemini!" Ken growled, "I knew you were behind the whole kidnapping plot of KPRS4ever."

"What?" Gemini asked, slightly confused before understanding what he mean? "Oh yes, the hostess of this years' Fannies. She's still in one piece..." but added an evil chuckle, "...for now!"

He activated a remote control that turned on the lights to where Sarah was at. She was handcuffed to a grappling hook with a timer counting down from 15 minutes. Below her was a 100,000 gallon tank of water filled with sharks.

"Uhh...guys. I may need a little help...and I haven't had any gummy bears for 30 minutes!" Sarah whined.

"I think the only thing you have to worry about, other than your sugar addiction, my dear, is becoming the sharks next meal!"

"Let her go!" Ken shouted. "It's us that you want, not her!"

"But that's the ticket, my fellow opponent!" Gemini replied, "I wanted to capture her so that the enemy agency would be lured out into the open so that they will be defeated once and for all and for Operation Tipped Lantern to begin!"

"Out of curiosity, Gemini, what is Operation Tipped Lantern?" Ron asked.

"Glad you can know, Mr. Stoppable." Gemini replied, walking over to a large object covered in a sheet. He snapped his fingers so that his WEE henchmen would pull off the sheet. The WEE henchmen did so.

"Gentlemen, may I give you the Heat Ray of Ultimate Destruction! Or HRUD for short!" Gemini proclaimed proudly at his device.

"I've absorbed the power of the sun and a whole lot of electricity...that caused some blackouts on the East Coast, but that's neither here nor there." Gemini said. "Once the laser reaches full capacity, I will get to destroy a city of my own choosing. And the first one I choose is going to be...Go City! The very same city that rejected me from their university so long ago!"

"Gee, first it was Drakken that dropped out of college so that he could go on his world domination schemes...you're just copying his method, aren't you!" Ron shouted.

"Evil doesn't innovate, Mr. Stoppable, they just steal ideas!" Gemini countered.

Sarah, meanwhile, was still chained to the hook, but she had an ace up her sleeve. She has hidden a replica of Kim's laser lipstick in the back part of her dress.

The WEE henchmen blew the trumpets.

"Oh yes! The WEE Fanfare! Number One is appearing as we speak!" Gemini boasted, "Get ready to tremble in your knees, you lowlying GJ scum."

On the south end of the base, the doors opened to reveal 15 strong-armed WEE henchmen, followed by one hooded figure in red, his face obscured in shadow. Behind him was another red-hooded figure. This time, he had metallic gloves and boots and a mask to obscure his face. All of the WEE members genuflected to him, for he was the mysterious leader of WEE: Number One.

"Did he get up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?" Ron wondered.

"Silence, fool!" Gemini demanded before going to Number One.

"Our Supreme Leader!" Gemini said to his boss, "The laser is ready to fire in about 15 minutes!"
"Excellent!" Number One hissed in his mask. "See to it that the countdown is set, so that we can finish these amateurs once and for all!"

"Amateurs...

"Yes, sir! We will finish Global Justice off once and for all!" Theta 20 replied.

Pepe barked wildly in the hands of Gemini.

"No...no...noooo! That evil mean organization is not going to take you from me!" Gemini replied, soothing his dog.

"I shall dispose of this idiot who said the name of the agency-for-good-which-must-not-be-named." Number One said, pressing a button on his metal gloves. Theta 20, in an instant, was sucked in a hidden tube and whooshed away.

_

However, the sounds of an explosion from the north side of the base interrupted them.

"What's going on?" Number One demanded.

"I'd hate to crash in on your party, Sheldon Director!" a familiar female voice boomed.

"What?! And it's supposed to be Gemini, you fool!" Gemini growled.

Kim appeared alongside with Rufus and Slam...and along with 200 other lower-ranking GJ agents approaching from all sides of the base. They numbered the same as the WEE agents.

"Yes! Kim is here!" Sarah exclaimed from the deathtrap while playing with her handcuffs. "So you WEE against better wee yourself in your pants!"

Slam ripped the doors aside as if they were just normal paper.

"Ahh...now there is a familiar face that I recognize. Kim Stoppable, Slam the Lorwardian, and two hundered of GJ's finest trying to destroy my..."

"AHEM!" Number One cleared his throat, recognizing the chain of command.

"I forgot...HIS organization, since he became leader!" Gemini said.

"Excuse me!" Number One counted, "Since I lead the organization! I shall take the lead in this evil monologue!"

"Go right ahead, O Graceful Leader!" Gemini said, allowing the floor to his superior.

Number One walked up to where Kim, Slam and the GJ agents were, laughing through his mask.

"So...Kim Poss..."

"Stoppable!" Kim shouted, "I'm married, remember?"

"Yeah, we have our wedding bands on our dog tags!" Ron added.

"Silence, you fool! Excuse me...Mrs. Stoppable...but I didn't even get a wedding invite! Not even an RSVP!" Number One chuckled. "And this is how the way GJ treats its former employees?"

"Wait...former employee?"

"I was the best in my field for years, able to decipher 14 languages and 32 regional dialects, tutored by the world's greatest minds and deadly in hand-to-hand combat. I even had technology that was standard issue for all top agents! That was...until you came along, you stupid amateur."

"His background! It's all connecting now!" Kim exclaimed, "The man under that mask is none other than..."

Number One stepped back and removed his mask to reveal himself.

It was none other than...Will Du. He was in his mid 30s and his hair had grown long from his Global Justice days. The most striking feature about him was a scar under his left eye. His emotionless state gave way to villainous insanity and glee.

"You...traitor!" Kim shouted at him. "I thought they locked you up for good at ADX Florence!"

Du continued his backstory, "I got time off for good behavior so I was transferred from that awful prison. But on the way, the paddy wagon suffered a flat tire. Utilizing the skills I once mastered, I made my escape and jumped into a nearby river that fed into the Colorado River. When I came to shore, I discovered Gemini and the Worldwide Evil Empire. They took me in as one of their own and I rose through the ranks to the top! Gemini became my second-in-command, and, as they say, the rest is history!"

While Du was monologuing, Ken took out a hairpin and worked on the lock to the cage.

"Then why the mask?" Kim asked.

"I laid low from GJ's radar and adopted the persona as Number One." Du grinned, "And went into the shadows for four years, laying out scheme after scheme until tonight! This is intended to be the grand reveal where we, the Worldwide Evil Empire bring down GJ to its knees!"

"Actually, Du, it's going to be the other way around!" Kim shouted, standing in a fightin' pose. "You back in Supermax where you belong!"

"And in crushing WEE once and for all!" Slam agreed, cracking his knuckles.

"Aww...and miss out on a little reunion?" Du chucked evily, "I'm not the only one who's decided to make an old acquaintance with you!"

The other figure removed his red hood.

Kim gasped, "Eric?"

It was revealed to be Eric, indeed. The left side of his entire body was normal while the right side of his body was more cyborg in nature. His left side of the face was normal while the right side of the face resembled that of the T-1000.

"Half-Eric, to be more precise! Quicker...stronger...and smarter than when Drakken once made him. I managed to recover some of his Syntho-goo to recreate the left side of his body. Unfortunately, we couldn't find any for his right side, so we attached a cyborg body instead." Du explained the nature of Half-Eric's appearance. "He also fires energy blasts as well from his hands."

"Miss me, Kim Possible?" Half-Eric grinned evily through his robotic exoskeleton.

"Stoppable..." Kim uttered. The problem for Kim's current rogues' gallery evolved from that of trying to remember Ron's name to that they were a married couple.

"We were supposed to be together, the way Sentinel intended!" Half-Eric said, trying to woo her. "I had a dream that we would be in a cathedral exchanging our views."

It went about as well as Kim's cooking methods.

"Yeah...you've been reading his stories waaaaaaay too many times!" Kim growled. "The only dream I even remotely have you is you in the scrapyard!"

"Now that you've heard the words of Mrs. Stoppable, Half-Eric..." Du cackled, "...what do you think the best course of action should be?"

"Well...when you put it that way..." Half-Eric lightly replied before shouting the orders to the WEE subordinates, "WEE henchmen! Attack!"

The Global Justice henchmen charged at the WEE henchmen and began to fight against them.

Du turned to the most elite of the WEE henchmen.

Ron and Ken, when the henchmen were not looking, escaped from the cage and Sarah escaped from the chains. She swung around the grappling hook, hoping to avoid the shark pool.

"Hurry, Ron! We gotta activate the cover to that shark pool!" Ken shouted.

"I'm on top of it, Ken!" Ron replied, pressing the button. The shark pool cover closed so that Sarah can land safely on top of it.

Sarah ran towards Ron and Ken.

"Thanks, guys!" Sarah insisted.

"I'll get Sarah to safety while you take care of that heat ray thing!" Ron said to Ken. "And then rejoin you guys!" He took Sarah to safety. Ken, meanwhile, began to use a series of martial arts against WEE's henchmen.

Gemini and Du were in disbelief that their henchmen were being outmanned by the better-trained Global Justice agents.

"This is getting out of hand!" Gemini gasped, seeing that Sarah has gotten away. "Put Operation Tipped Lantern in failed plots. We'll never get the heat ray to fire!"

"No! NO!" Du snarled, "Gemini, you grey-haired fool! We cannot give in to these GJ simpletons!"

"Half-Eric!"

Half-Eric was fighting against three GJ agents, tossing them aside. "Yes, master?"

"I want you to fight Kim Stoppable!" Du demanded. "Make sure she does not get to that heat ray! I will fire it up for its final countdown in four minutes!" He set the heat ray timer to 4 minutes.

"It shall be done according to your word, master!" Half-Eric replied.

Kim, meanwhile, was using her cheer moves combined with karate moves to take down some of the WEE agents. She didn't see Half-Eric making an oncoming charge at her.

"Ooomph!"

Kim felt the impact but got back in a fighting stance.

"You wanna fight me, little missy?" Half-Eric taunted his female opponent.

Kim activated a button on her GJ Uniform. "You know, Eric? I would be glad to!" Her uniform transformed into a modified version of her supersuit.

"Impressive...Mrs. Stoppable..." Half-Eric growled. "But let's see if you can try and dodge this!" He formed a purple plasma ball and fired it at Kim. But Kim, with the quicker reflexes, dodged it and reflected it to a nearby wall.

"Still a little rusty on your accuracy there, Eric!" Kim grinned. She generated a blue plasma ball and threw it at Eric, but it had no effect on him.

"It's a good thing the WEE people did a bit of research on your supersuit. My bodyThat was just the warm-up, Kimberly Ann! Now comes the real fun!" Half-Eric said with confidence, making another plasma ball but it was a bit bigger than the last. He hurled it at Kim.

She tried to dodge it, but the splash damage knocked her off her feet into a corner.

Kim gasped that this hulking monstrosity was heading towards her.

"So, now, Mrs. Stoppable, who has the upper hand now? Gemini has full control over me, accessing all of his commands on his gloves and has given me the best weapons! Now I'll save this one..."

He formed a large purple energy ball and proclaimed "...for your final defeat!"

Ron saw this and shouted, "KS!" Sarah, meanwhile, was in the safety of Global Justice authorities.

Half-Eric got distracted by this, "Stoppable?" What he didn't see was a ball of green plasma energy hitting him in the chest. The purple energy ball disintegrated.

"Huh? What gives?" Half-Eric exclaimed.

Shego somersaulted into the air and landed on her feet. She was in a modified and updated version of her green-and-black catsuit. Even though she's now a hero, she doesn't "technically" work for Global Justice. She does, however, get paid well by them when the sitch calls for her.

"Sorry, Eric! My loyalties now lie with Princess now!" Shego yelled. She hurled a green energy ball at him, but Eric dodged it.

"He's much faster than I thought!" Shego said, observing his moves.

"Duh, Shego! Ya think!" Kim scoffed, "Anyways, thanks for the help!"

"Anytime, Kimmie! We need your tech guy now! The heat ray is about to fire in two minutes!" Shego exclaimed.

"I'll get him!" Kim insisted. Wade came on.

"Wade, we need to shut down Gemini's heat ray in less than two minutes, or Go City will become Scap City!" Kim exclaimed.

"There is a fatal flaw in the design of the ray. There is an opening hole on the right side of the machine, and, in your supersuit, there's a nano-EMP detonator that would disable the machine. But we need something small enough for the nano-EMP detonator to deliver with.

Rufus came to Ron's side. "Hiyo!" He also took out Ron's fidget spinner!

"Rufus! That's it! He can carry the fidget spinner and drop it into the opening!" Kim exclaimed.

"And then cause a chain reaction! Heat ray destroyed!" Wade replied.

"You rock, Wade! Now...what about Eric?" Kim asked.

"He's controlled by a remote control hidden in Gemini's metal gloves." Wade said, while typing on his laptop, "If you can short-circuit the remote control, it would overheat the CPU in Eric's mainframe."

"Then that should destroy the heat ray!" Kim smirked, getting an idea developed in her head. "First, I gotta get Gemini's attention! And I think I know how!"

Kim went to Gemini and said, "Hey, Sheldon! Betty called and said that she's going to get your mom for messing up your room!"

"That tattletale!" Gemini shouted, "I'll give her a piece of my mind!" He charged at Kim but Kim simply utilized the Kimmunicator watch to shock Gemini, and rendered him unable to move.

"Stopwatch. Temporary paralysis. Standard issue for all top agents." Kim taunted before turning to Du.

Du became extremely angry that Kim had tricked Gemini into exposing Eric's vulnerability, and also angry that Kim taunted him for what he once was. But he then gave a hearty evil laugh!

"It doesn't matter anyway, Kim Stoppable!" Du proclaimed. "The heat ray is going to fire in 30 seconds! And there's nothing you can do about it!"

"Oh yeah?" Kim smirked, "Try to talk that to the naked mole rat who found your heat ray's weakspot!"

Rufus, from a catwalk, spun the fidget spinner, armed with the nano-EMP detonator, into the opening of the heat ray. The EMP shock caused the heat ray to be disabled, but not destroyed.

The stopwatch's electrical shock also fried up the remote control to Half-Eric's control, causing Eric to heat up!

"Oh no! What's wrong with me?!" Half-Eric exclaimed as his normal half was melting with the Syntho-goo. He was stumbling towards the disabled heat ray. Smoke was coming out of his mouth

Ron, Kim, and Shego came together and saw a clear pathway between Eric and the heat ray.

"Ron, Shego! I need you two to combine your powers! We're going to use Mr. Former Date as an IEP to destroy that ray!" Kim instructed the two. She began to form a blue power orb from her supersuit.

Ron's eyes turned blue, tapping into his Mystical Monkey Power. He gave the orb a bit of juice. Shego also threw in a little bit of her green plasma as well.

Eric turned his head and gasped.

Kim grinned and said, "Nighty-night, sweet prince!" With that, she threw the orb at Eric and it connected. It destroyed the exoskeleton of Eric.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

The blue orb, and what was left of Eric, destroyed the disabled heat ray.

"Then Operation Tipped Lantern is NOW considered a failure!" Gemini growled, still unable to move.

Du growled and activated his jetpack, as did the remaining WEE henchmen, about 75 in number.

"You may have won the battle, Global Justice, but the war is far from over!" They flew off into the night with the lightning flashing and thunder rumbling in the distance.

Agent Trepid tried a grappling hook to tie Du's feet, but it fell well short of his intended target.

_

(5 minutes later)

Gemini and the henchmen were carted off to jail in handcuffs, courtesy of the Go City police and Global Justice.

"That's another failed plot in the archives of the Worldwide Evil Empire!" Betty said on the Kimmunicator. She was projected as a hologram on Kim's wristwatch. "Although we got Gemini, Du still remains at large. Hard to believe he was the one pulling the strings on WEE for the past four years!"

"I cannot believe you said it with a straight face, Dr. D!" Ron grinned.

"A man of comedy indeed, Agent R Stoppable!" Betty replied, snarking.

"That's Ron in a nutshell for ya!" Sarah replied.

Kim, Ron, Sarah, Slam and Agent Trepid were all there by the 18-wheeler. Sarah was, of course, munching down on gummi bears.

"Good job, team!" Betty continued, "I especially, once again, commend you, Agent K Stoppable, for your bravery and quick-thinking and Agent Slam for his continued use of his strength and intelligence."

"It's no big, Dr. Director! But really, thank Rufus for discovering the weakness in that heat ray!" Kim smiled while patting Rufus on the head.

"Hey, I took out some of those WEE agents too!

"Oh, um, Agent K Stoppable?" Betty asked.

"Yes, Dr. Director?" Kim replied.

"I think we have another incoming transmission...from the IRS!" Betty said.

"The IRS?!" Ron panicked, "Oh no! We're going to get audited! I don't wanna go to jail for a tax violation1"

"Chillax, Ron! We did our taxes this year and got a small nice refund from them!" Kim countered. The Stoppables indeed did them over the internet.

Two agents from the IRS appeared as holograms.

"Miss Po..." the agent on the left began before the agent on the right elbowed him.

"Oh...sorry, Mrs. Stoppable! I am Agent Brown and this is Agent Smith! We may need your help into authenticating a voice on a recording of a notable tax cheat who has cheated millions from the US government.

"That's why I have my tech friend, Wade, on my side!" Kim said.

"We'll play the recording for you and your technically-adapt comrade." Agent Brown said.

"Please and thank you!" Kim said before the recording was played.

The recording went like this:

"Sign the documents."

"But I can't! You're going to risk going to jail for this!"

"Screw the rules! I have money! Now you will sign where I tell you to sign, dammit!"

"That voice...that has to be none other than Bonnie Rockwaller!" Kim gasped, "Where did this take place?"

"According to the footage, it was at her house!" Agent Brown replied, "We have the falsified documents as evidence against Miss Rockwaller and we have the contractors' testimony."

Kim gasped. Her biggest rival had now turned into a criminal, one of the thieving kind.

She then smirked. This was a golden opportunity to get back at Bonnie for everything she's done to Kim in the past.

"Ron! Sarah! We have to get back to the Rockwaller mansion to finish the ceremony!"

Ron and Sarah went to Kim's side.

"Wade! Where is the Fannies' ceremony at?" Kim asked.

"We're just about getting to Best Story, so you have to hurry!" Wade replied. "I am going to teleport you, Ron, and Sarah over to the ceremony!"

"Sarah, put this on!" Kim said to Sarah, giving her a Kimmunicator watch.

"Oooh! Fancy!" Sarah exclaimed in putting the watch on. Ron also activated the watch.

"Synchronizing...now!" Wade said, pressing a button.
