Ok I'm bored so heres another chapter. I'm so tired yall, God I need to sleep more.
Thanks for the review Guest person!
Once Shego finished her tanning session she returned to her room at the five star hotel she called home for the last two days. To her surprise a package containing a flash drive was on her nightstand signed by someone calling themselves "Wicker Witch".
"What a name." She says sarcastically as she puts the flash drive into her computer. A single file dated over a week ago lead her to a video of two vans driving to the Possible home. What was strange was it appeared that the video was made from two points of view: One from a Drone and another from an handheld device. The first half was of the vans with at least two teams of four men with weapons drawn tactically approaching both ends of the home. They weren't Hench co brand or trained by any means by the way moved or what gear they were working with. From the drone footage it cut to the hand held view zooming in on Kim's bedroom.
Kim throws herself out of bed and appeared visibly startled from some of her moments. It was strange to see her like that to Shego. Usually she was ready for anything, Maybe She should try this sometime. She chuckles to herself but it was short lived as she watches Kim jump to the ceiling.
"Black 5 - All units. Target is on ceiling with what appears to be a weapon. Gas the room and cease Target and package." A mans voice says.
Shego watches as the men throw gas grenades into the room and down comes Kimmy on to her bed. She pauses the video, enhances the footage, and to her surprise they were indeed not Hench co brand men. They looked more like soliders, special forces at that, than hired thugs. The soliders carefully secured Kim with zip cuffs and crushed all her communication gear like her communicator, cell phone, and computer. But what got her attention even more was the fact they took Kim AND the battle suit she used to fight her during the 'Diablo' crisis. The feed cut back to the drone as the whole team rushed back to their vehicles and scattered into the night. All together it was five minute affair, In and Out with no shots fired. None of the villains she worked with or knew had a team that good.
First thing first she had to screen shot several images of the team and save the video to her laptop. The images she sent to Hench-Co asking about packages involving Black Ops teams. The question was shortly answered with a hard no. Rude.
Next it was over to a few friends, if she could call them that, in the villain world and even with her brothers at Team Go. Though the email was tailored to a more friendly tone to her brothers. The reply from her brothers was mixed with virtue signalling to the greater good and bullshit, a cocktail she couldn't stomach. But the reply from her friends was rather better.
Motor Ed's right man, who knew how to use a computer, said the vans came from a deal between 'A couple of weirdos'. They traded two trophy trucks for the vans as well as 50,000 Cash about 2 weeks ago.
Señor Senior, Junior on the other mentioned another couple of weirdos visiting their island inquiring about arms dealers in Europe. Mainly non-lethal weapons were on their mind. He mentioned that his Father rather enjoyed them and it bothered him.
"So a couple of weirdos bought two vans and some non-lethal weapons. Then hit Kim Possible at her home? Straight forward. I like it." She says with a smirk of admiration. It was short lived as she remembered the picture in her purse. With a sigh she reaches for the picture and puts it with in view as she began searching more interesting websites connected to international villainy. The Dark web is a interesting thing. From there she began cross referencing any events in the international villain underworld regarding Special Operations teams, Non meta human teams, and the battle suit. Nothing came up about the teams but the battle suit came up with one source: Dr. Dementor.
Though their were two issues with this:
1: Dementor was captured by GJ over one month ago
2: The suit, according to Kim during one of their fights, said it was broken.
The villain community remarked on that as a worthless endeavor without serious repair, Even Drakken said it was and that actually meant something. Everything was coming to a dead end on motive and info...
Shego looks over at the picture again. "What would princess do in this?" She asks herself. "Hmmm she usually had her techno geek. Ugh I need a techno geek."
Wait... Dementor was taken by GJ. Global Justice can afford men like those and even train them. From there it was just the process of finding them... Or someone who knew them well...
There were rumors among the community that their was a counter to GJ that operated in the interests of international villainy, W.E.E. But they collapsed into themselves after a Global Justice raid lead by Kim Possible. Shego heard of it when she was having a drink at a Villains only speak easy on a private island in the Mediterranean called "Purgatory". The place was nice, Music was good, and it was far away from anyone who wanted to put her in handcuffs. If anyone knew anything about W.E.E then it was someone there.
She looks back at the picture with a smile. "Looks like I might see you again Kimmy." Shego puts the picture away and packs her things away. Unfortunately her Spanish vacation is cut short, but at least their is a good reason for her to cut it so short. As she walks out her door and down to the lobby a man in black watches her from down the hall way.
"Looks like she might have a lead." He says into a old flip phone. "What did you get off the bug?"
"Nothing besides our trail Cherr." A woman says on the other end. "Take a walk and see what you find."
"Yes Madam." He says closing the phone.
Few hours later...
The man picked up a series of cryptic phone calls from Shego's phone on a program he had on his second phone. She was heading to a speakeasy where high profile villains go to lay low and have a brew or two in peace. The Madam knew of the place and sent him the pass phase to get him in. He didn't have to change much about his appearance to fit in other than clean up his appearance to appear more appealing. A black suit and tie, spit shined steel toe boots, and a fresh faded hair cut along with a trimmed goatee. No guns this time around at the Madam's request but she didn't say anything about knuckle dusters.
"I'll be there to guide our friend. Have a couple of drinks and enjoy yourself honey. You've been riding yourself to hard for the last few weeks." The Madam says over the phone with caring tone.
The organization provided him money and a ride to the island, but the rest was up to him. He arrived in a cigarette boat, one of the more tame methods of coming to the island, around 2110. The guards checked his credentials and password, everything checked out.
"Welcome to purgatory sir." The guards welcome him.
"Thank you gents." He replies handing them bother a couple of hundred dollars each as a tip.
Shego arrived sometime later while he sat in the back with bottle of Vodka and his back against the wall in a booth.
Purgatory was some point. Wold school 1920's style speakeasy with a few upgrades to keep the clients happy, drunk, and safe. Sound proof curtains around each booth, communication jamming for outside signals, shipping lanes and flight paths changed to keep prying eyes away, and quality cloaking tech to keep the place hidden. Shego didn't mind the place, but she preferred to be sipping her drinks in the open air under the hot sun on the Island's beach rather than in this dark hole. Purgatory was built under an old Roman fort by Señor Senior, Senior, as one of his hobbies but was later sold to Adrena Lynn after her disgraceful with draw from the world stage for being a coward. Lynn was a spineless coward, but she made a good Moscow mule and kept them coming.
Shego took a seat at the bar and to her surprise Lynn handed her a drink, "Compliments of the house Shego." Lynn says with a slight smile.
"Thanks?..." Shego says as she sips her gin and tonic. "Whats up with you? Usually you're screaming something ridiculous."
"Nah not at all." Lynn replies as she reaches into her pocket retrieving a small bottle of pills. "Mood stabilizers to help me... Mellow out finally... God jail was a bummer but the good doctor gave me something to make it all better. How things been Shego? Its been forever since prison!"
"Ah the happy pills." Shego replies remembering Lynn in prison. She always wanted to cave her head in for being annoying. When you hear "FREAKY!" Twelve times a day for about two weeks gave her headaches. One of the many reasons why she broke out so much.
"Yeah you know it! Freaky hehehe." Lynn replies in a more cool and laid back tone as she cleaned a beer mug. "What brings you here Shego baby?"
"Don't call me that. Ever." Shego replies coldly. "I'm here for you. Anyone here from that strange W.E.E thing?"
"Nah the W.E.E agents all changed sides to the GJ after Gemini went to their private lockup." Lynn says looking towards the back of the speakeasy as a three piece band set up in the back. "Whatcha lookin for them for? You're not the one to tie yourself down with a group."
"Its not about looking for work, I'm looking for them to ask about something interesting." She replies pulling her phone out and showing her the pictures she took from the flash drive.
"Woah! Freaky! KP got got! Haha!" Lynn laughs as she grabs a couple of shot glasses. "Lets celebrate! I've been saving a bottle of old number seven for a day like this!"
"Not right now," She says as Lynn pours a couple of shots from a dusty whisky bottle. "Do you know anyone here that might have people like this?"
"Why does it matter? That bossy red head finally ran out of luck. Whoever has her is a hero to me!" Lynn replies pushing the shot into Shego's hand.
"Lynn this is serious, I have a lot riding on this. Do you know anything?" Shego says with a serious tone as the band begins a sound check.
"Whats it to you? I thought you would be happy to see her get kidnapped." Lynn said with suspicion. "You miss her Shego? Awww how cute!"
Shego's hands turned green with anger as she stares down Lynn as she laughs at her. "No, I've taken a contract to find her. Now if you-"
Lynn laughs harder to much of Shego's dismay. "How much are they paying you?! A few million? I wouldn't take all the money in the world to save her! You're growing soft Shego! Big bad Shego with a heart of stone is finally softening up!"
Shego grabs Lynn by the shirt and pulls her close to her. "Listen you fraud, who ever took Kimmie is about to pay. But if you keep wasting my time I'll show you how soft YOU can get!"
Lynn smiles and slowly pushes Shego back. "Easy there fire fly, I'm only teasing you." She says coolly as she pushes the shot closer to Shego. "Have a drink or two with me and I'll tell you what you want to know. I got a idea who it might be, but girl you gotta cool your jets."
Shego was pissed and it didn't help how bold Lynn was acting. It was strange how she was acting, both her and Lynn, but Shego wrote it off because of the booze and Lynn's happy pills. Did she really threaten Lynn over Kim Possible?
"No... I threaten her over the money... The money..." She reminds herself as the band tune up their guitar and begin playing a cover song of 'Old Number 7' by The Devil Makes Three.
"I'll cool down." Shego says as she takes the glass in her hand. "Watch yourself poser."
Lynn laughs and takes her glass in hand for a toast. "To Kim Possible."
Shego chuckles reluctantly at the gesture, but then she remembers the picture in her purse and the good times her and Kim had. Maybe it wasn't the weirdest thing to do. "To Kimmie." She says as the music plays as they take their glasses of Old Number 7.
The whisky was bold and harsh, but not as harsh as the words that came out of Lynn's mouth. Shego swore it was the booze talking but she was still a little heated about what Lynn said about Kim and it showed. Lynn ignored it and got close to Shego.
"God I haven't had Number Seven since I got this place!" Lynn says with joy. "Want another?"
Shego felt strange after that shot, maybe it was stronger because of its age. "Yeah sure. Kimmie is paying for anyways!"
Lynn laughs and pours another shot for her friend. "Whos paying you to find Kim Possible?" She asks as they toast again.
"Someone called the Wicker Witch." Shego says as she throws another shot down her throat. "Where do people come up with these personas, am I right?"
"Oooh Freaky! How much is she offering for her?" Lynn asks as her favorite part of the song comes.
"16 Million with a Down payment of 5.5 Million!" Shego says with glee as they toast again. "To Kimmie!"
"Thank you Jack Daniels Old Number Seven, Tennessee Whiskey got me drinking in heaven!" Lynn sings as she takes her shot. "We should dance! Lets dance!"
"Dance? Me? No no no-" Shego says till Lynn hopes over the bar and takes Shego over to the dance floor. Shego couldn't fight her with all the liquor in her system, so she reluctantly went with the drunken Lynn to twirl and laugh as the band played through the night.
The man in the corner couldn't help but laugh as well and enjoy the moment as the two villains danced while trying to sing along to the band.
Once the band finished the song and went on a break so did the two girls. Shego's head was spinning and her stomach was doing the same. "Damn that whisky was strong!" She laments as she swaggers over to the ladies bathroom. Lynn leaves her to go back to the bar, "Some friend you are!" Shego shouts as she stumbles into the bathroom.
The man in the corner comes to the bar and winks at Lynn. She smiles and with in the blink of an eye she changes. In front of him was a woman about Shego's age with streaks of grey in her black hair with ghostly pale skin.
"It looks like you were having fun Madam." The man remarks.
"It was!" She says with glee. "I haven't had that much fun in years. I think once she clears her system out I'll give her once of my special cocktails like I give you when you've had to much."
He rolls his eyes, "I never get drunk." He says lying through his teeth.
"Karl Erich Dael, you lying snake!" She says with jest.
"Oh come on, my whole name?" Karl smiles. "Wow thanks."
Madam give him a evil glare and he rolls his eyes. "Sure. I do drink a little to much and yes your cocktails work."
"Don't tell me what I already know Cherr." She laughs. "Go back to your seat while I make Shego her drinks and get back into character."
"Yes Madam." Karl replies taking another drink from the bar.
Shego throws herself head first into the stall and empties countless shots into the bowl. Her body was on fire and she hated it. When she was finished she wiped herself off with a paper towel and cleans herself.
"Its never been about the money. What was I thinking? What am I thinking? Damn it what is wrong with me!" She shouts punching the wall.
"Ugh why? Just why? God I don't know anymore." She says as she cleans the vomit off the sides of her mouth. "I just don't know."
"Don't know what?" A voice asks her.
She looks up and to her surprise it was a young girl about 18-19 with long red hair. "Princess?" She asks in surprise almost falling to her knees. "Its you! Its you!" Shego catches herself for only a moment to fall forward catching herself again on Kim. To the surprise of both Shego was hugging Kim, actually hugging her.
"I've missed you KP! God its been forever since we last fought!" Shego says in a drunken slur. "I'm a little drunkie poo Kimmie. I can't do much right now. Hehehehe"
Kim giggles and holds Shego up. "It's ok Shego. I can see that."
"What happen to us Kimmie?" Shego asks slurring her words as she gets a better stance to hold herself up. "We were such good girlfriends when I was a goodie goodie. I LOVED IT SO MUCH! But don't tell no one I gotta keep a rep up ya know?"
"Aww really Shego?" Kim asks with genuine affection.
"For real Kim! FOR. REAL." She says hugging her tightly. "I wanted to tell you but then Ron hit me with the thing. Psssshhhh. Kimmie I got a secret for ya."
Kim sighs and returns the hug. "Yes Shego?"
"I like you a bit more. You're like my only friend and more. I know its weird and I'm pretty wasted but girl I legit miss you more than anything... You're mine. God damn it you're mine." Shego slowly drags off until all goes black as she fall asleep.
"Sweet Dreams Cherr..."
