Author's Note: Is everyone still confused? Well if you are don't worry about it because in the next few chapters it will start to slowly come together. I would again like to thank everyone who has reviewed thus far for the motivation and comments, they have been very helpful. I would like to say that there are plans in the works for another story soon, unrelated to this one but it will be a Kim Possible fic. Well here it is, the next chapter and I hope you all like it. Please read and review. Have fun!!!
Fade In: Scene The hallways of Middleton High School. They're very empty and quite as the anticipation of the next period's rush in between classes approaches. The camera angle zooms in on the clock high up on the wall above a classroom door. Slowly we see the camera zoom out just enough to see the students watch anxiously from inside their class as freedom from their boredom drew near. The second hand on the clock went tick tock over and over again, it seemed to get slower and almost stop and back up for a moment just as it was about to hit the twelve to start a new hour as well as next period. Finally the second hand clicked right onto the twelve and triggered the bell to ring causing a stampede. As we see the students run out of classes, meet with their friends, go to their lockers and talk about things in general the camera pans over to one locker and waits while a girl begins opening the combination. It's obvious by this point that this is Kim's locker. Suddenly, as if out of nowhere Ron leans against the locker beside hers and looks directly at Kim.
"Hey." Ron said starting a conversation and breaking the awkward silence
"Hey Ron. How was class?" Kim replied making chit-chat or at least attempting to do so
"Boring, but that's normal. And yours?" He said trying to keep the conversation going
"Same, so..." Kim stammered as she was about to ask Ron about, well everything
"Yeah, um I have to run to class but we'll talk at lunch, right?" Ron looked quizzically
"Definitely." Kim said with a smile and Ron took his leave heading to his next class. Kim then grabbed a book and then thought for a second. She tapped on her screen in the locker as she contacted Wade.
Wade's face popped and he said, "Hey Kim, what's up?"
"Can you check something out for me, Wade?" she said with a hint of concern
"Sure. Don't I always?" He said jokingly
"Can you check out if something weird is going on?"
"How weird?" He asked now a little more intrigued
"Anything out of the ordinary. Really out of the ordinary." She said emphasizing it
"Can do but may I ask what you're looking for." He said a bit confused at the request
"I just have a hunch, things aren't adding up and if they are I'm not seeing the full picture. Hmm... oh well, I have to get to class. Keep me updated." With that she clicked off the video screen and Wade disappeared. She then shut her locker and went to class as she said she would.
On the other side of Middleton we find a darkened alley. There are garbage pales strewn across the alley with a dumpster on one side and black garbage bags on the other. The shadow of a cat going through one of the bags can be seen. Without warning, a bolt of light shot through the alley. The cat immediately jumped from it's feeding place and screeched loudly as it ran out of the alley. A figure emerged from the brief but powerful burst of light, it was Omega. He was holding the crystal in his right hand, which was glowing a pink hue once more.
"Hmm... I suspect my appearance will cause a bit of chaos and shock, even though I'd enjoy seeing people run and scream as they flee from me I need to blend in so that my mission can go ahead smoothly with as much speed as possible. Time is of the essence." Omega then waved his arm in front of his face and then body causing his mask and outfit to disappear, in their place was a pair of black sneakers, black khakis and a black long sleeved shirt under a black leather coat. Without the mask his face could be seen, he had short black hair, brown eyes and a sinister but alluring smile. He looked at the crystal and said, "I better keep you close." He looked at the crystal with a deep concentration as if he were trying to look through it, suddenly smoke started to rise off of it. Soon a hole emerged at the tip of it and he pulled out a strand of thin rope which he proceeded to lace through it and tied a knot preventing the string from falling out. He then put it around his neck and tucked it under his coat as he walked out of the dark alley.
Back at Middleton High School, the hallways are once again filled with students who all have one thing on their minds, lunch. The cafeteria is packed with students on line to get their normal afternoon meal. Ron gets on line next to Kim who is in front of him and both grab trays to put their food on. The lunch lady picks up a ladle and pours on a mushy substance that can only be identified as school lunch. Then a drink in a small plastic container is placed on the tray in Ron's hand as was done with Kim's. The two head off to find their normal table and sit down to eat. An awkward silence once again engulfs their close proximity to one another since that morning.
Elsewhere, we see Omega walking along a street somewhere in Middleton. He casually takes out the crystal and begins moving his hand holding the crystal from left to right slowly. As he does this the crystal begins to pulsate more and more, then less and less. He slowly back tracks to the point where it was pulsating most and he walks towards that direction while he places the crystal beneath his coat once more. The angle of the camera slowly turns around from facing Omega to looking at his back and the path in front of him. We can see Middleton High School and the Middleton High School field directly in front of him. The school looks normal but we can see that some construction is taking placed on the field where the bleachers are, obviously they are being renovated from prolonged wear and tear as well as being expanded to make room for more spectators at future games (i.e. football). He makes his way to the school and decides that he'll cut through it rather than walk around. Omega finds a side door and with nothing more than a flick of his wrist blows out the lock on top of the knob, after which he pulls it open and walks inside.
Inside the cafeteria we see students walking around in their normal routine to get lunch and find a table. Back at Kim and Ron's table the two haven't spoken a word nor have they even looked at each other directly with the exception of some glancing. Finally Ron decides to speak to Kim. He begins to say, "Kim, KP." He smiles, "I think I should say something."
"Only if you want to Ron but if it's something you'd rather not I won't be offended." Kim replied giving Ron some reassurance as to him making a choice on his own
"It's not that I have to, but I want to. You see..." Just as he was about to tell her everything the communicator beeped.
"Great timing Wade." Kim said to herself as she turned on her communicator. "What's the sitch Wade?"
"Remember what you asked me to look for earlier?" Wade asked jogging Kim's memory
"Yeah, did you find something?" she asked
"Uh huh, and it's definitely out of the ordinary." He replied
"How out of the ordinary?"
"Mobile power source out of the ordinary." He said
"Do you have a location?"
"Yeah but the weird thing is that it's almost on top of you."
Back in the hallway, we see Omega walking through the school nonchalantly as he makes his way stealthily past any type of security, though it's lax at best. He sees a group of students pass him by and go through some double doors up ahead and he decides to follow as it might lead him to a shortcut through the building. He walks through the doors and sees himself standing inside the cafeteria. "Hmm... better make this a quick visit, don't want to be distracted now." He said to himself as he walked through the lunchroom slowly avoiding students running every which way.
Over at Kim and Ron's table we see Kim looking at her Kimmunicator which is blinking with a dot on a map of the room. She's searching for the power source Wade had detected, meanwhile Ron looked on with curiosity when suddenly a feeling came over him. It was sharp and caused his vision for a brief moment to go black and white. Kim noticed this out of the corner of her as she observed him in an effort to restart their conversation.
"Are you ok?" she asked with a concerned tone
"I don't know. I felt something." He replied with a confused expression
"Something like what?"
"A feeling or presence, I guess. Maybe it was nothing." Just as he managed to say that he felt it again. This time much more intense. He looked to the left and right surveying the cafeteria when he noticed someone across the room walking away. A flashback hit him. He remembered his dream and the scene where he saw that guy with a horseshoe symbol behind him. Ron blinked a few times as he squinted in the direction of the figure. It was the same guy and even though this confused him he yelled out, "Hey! You!!!"
Omega heard this and turned in the direction of the yelling and saw Ron looking directly at him. Kim pointed the Kimmunicator at the figure and said, "That's it! That's the power source!" she said with a strong assurance behind it.
Omega squinted at Kim, then to Ron. He didn't know what they wanted and was confused by Ron's comment directed at him to get his attention. Omega then began to reply by saying to Ron, "what do you want?" He then took a good long look at Ron and his eyes widened with him finally saying, "No, it couldn't be... could it?" then a short pause and he yelled with irritation and hatred, "You!!!"
To Be Continued... What is Omega searching for? Did Omega recognize Ron? Why is Kim's Kimmunicator showing Omega as a power source? Does Kim know more than she's letting on? Will she ever find out what's going on? All these questions and more to be answered in the upcoming chapters.
So what did everyone think? Was it good, bad, decent or otherwise? It's starting to pick up speed right about now so please keep reading. As promised, answers will begin to reveal themselves starting with the next chapter and trust me when I say they'll be flying in all the way from left field in large quantities. To Unknown, no I'm not trying to write in a scripted format it's just how I decided to open a scene and write my chapters but thanks for the info anyway (when I do write a script I'll use that format but I'm not much of a script writer just someone who creates fics). I hope everyone is enjoying it and I'd like to once again thank all who have reviewed for their support. Please review. I hope to update soon with the next chapter. Thanks in advance.
