Author's Note: Sorry everyone for the long wait between the last update and this one, but there have been circumstances beyond my control at work making it near impossible to continue this story or any others until now. With the combination of extraordinary school work, an internship overseas during the late spring and summer (the only hint I'll give is the word Azkaban J and the fact that Warner Brothers is so cool to let me work on a project for them), as well as some personal issues that needed to be dealt with immediately. I am, however, truly sorry for the long break between the previous chapter and this one, but I'm hoping to continue with the story just in case you're all wondering. Once again, I'd like to thank all of you who have reviewed thus far and keep me motivated. I actually took a look at some of the episodes played from this season that I managed to get taped and thought it was funny how the weather machine bit actually happened in an episode, although not like the way I portrayed it in the beginning. Well enough about me and on with the ninth chapter. Have fun and please R/R.
Fade In: Scene, The Middleton High School cafeteria. When last we left off, the figure known as Omega had been searching for something in Middleton using the crystal he had taken from the weather machine Dr. Drakken and Shego had stolen. Ron had been having these weird dreams lately, not to mention some really odd occurrences like the ninja fighting him in front of the school. Then there's Kim, usually she has a firm grip on everything going on but this time is out of the loop. She definitely is worrying about Ron and what she thinks is a secret being kept from her and she's absolutely right. Finally, Omega had just noticed Ron at one end of the cafeteria and recognized something about him, but what? Read on to find out as the story continues.
Without any hesitation or regard to his once very careful movements as to not alert anyone to his presence or powers he levitated. Omega was now a good few inches off the ground and hovered for a brief moment. He then made a hasty gliding movement towards Ron's table and caused many people to point and stare. "So, you're still alive. I thought you died a long time ago. When I'm through with you, you'll wish you were dead." With nothing more than that ominous message Omega reached into his leather coat and reached for something on his belt.
Ron immediately noticed what Omega had gone for and it was a sword. Not any sword Ron had ever laid eyes upon before though. It was very odd in that its blade was black and had a handle made of silver. It was so beautiful yet so very deadly and Ron only had moments to think of a way to escape the blade's descent as Omega quickly swung it at Ron's head. All of a sudden Kim jumped up and grabbed Omega's arm wielding the sword and held on as tightly as she could. The sword missed its mark, barely, and went without more that the sound of gusting air right through the table that Kim and Ron were eating lunch at just moments ago.
"Ron get out of here!" Kim yelled as she tried to hold onto Omega and stop him from hurting or worse killing Ron
Omega just said, "Get off of me you silly girl! You don't know who you're dealing with!"
"A psycho and that's all I need to know." Kim retorted but Omega didn't seem to appreciate being called a psycho and once he had managed to get Kim off he raised his hand effortlessly and threw her aside with a mere sweeping movement of his arm.
"I don't know what it is this week but girls can't seem to stop throwing themselves at me. First that green skinned girl and now you, perhaps I'll deal with you… later. I've got more important matters to attend to, like HIM!!!" Omega pointed to Ron who had just decided to get up from his seat.
"What did I ever do to you?" Ron asked Omega hoping for some answer
"What did you ever do to me? WHAT DID YOU EVER DO TO ME?!!! It's more like what you didn't not do to me, after all you were the one that killed me brother." Omega snarled as he quickly approached a now speechless Ron. Omega just raised his hand and motioned it the same way he had done to Kim and Shego right at Ron but surprisingly nothing happened. "Hmm… I figured just as much. After all, we share the same lineage so you must have the same immunities as me even if they're my powers apparently you don't seemed to be phased by them. I'll just have to deal with you the old fashioned way."
Omega raised his sword and was readying his strike on Ron. Ron looked over to where Kim lay, she was conscious and looking right at him with fear in her eyes at what Omega was about to do but she felt to weak to move. She was sore all over and Ron knew she was in pain because of the move Omega had done to her. He looked backed to Omega who had his sword overhead and moving towards Ron at what seemed like slow motion. All of a sudden, Ron's eyes went from caring and frightened back to serious and almost anciently infused with power, there was even a golden hue surrounding him. As the blade had finally made it's way down to Ron a scream from Kim could be heard full of fright and worry, "Ron!"
The odd thing was the sword stopped. Ron had thrown both of his hands up and cupped the sword on both sides causing it to stop before it made contact. Ron looked up at Omega and stared straight into his eyes. "I know you. I stopped you once what makes you think I won't stop you again Omega, brother." Ron said in an almost too unreal voice to be coming out of his mouth. It was so deep and so old and not like an elderly person but rather mature and serious, which suffice it to say is completely unlike Ron.
"I knew you would remember me sooner or later, Alpha. I was kind of hoping it would be after I killed you but I guess we don't always get what we want. It's a little odd that you're powers have awakened after so long. I wonder… those old fools must have taken it upon themselves to contact you in your dreams. I should have dealt with them a long time ago." Omega spat before backing slightly away from Ron.
"Too bad for you maybe but I'm feeling my powers running through me once more and as you've noticed, you weren't a match for me in the past and you won't be one now. After all, I did stop you then didn't I?" Ron responded
"You managed to only barely beat me then and I've had more time to prepare for your return this time. After all, I came back from the dead well before you."
Ron's head was spinning from this information then again it wasn't just Ron but someone else also inhabiting his mind. A presence that was very powerful but Ron trusted him for some reason and allowed him to continue taking over his body for now.
"You don't remember quite a bit now do you? Ha! They're keeping just as many secrets from you as I did way back when. But enough about the past, let's see how you do in the present." With that Omega pounced at Ron who seemingly effortlessly did a roundhouse kick right at Omega and both made contact causing the other to stumble backwards a little and continue.
Kim had just now managed to get up from where she lay. She was bruised pretty badly and felt sore all over but couldn't feel if she had any broken bones and quickly determined that she didn't which was a heavy relief. Unfortunately her attention was directed towards the fight between Omega and Ron who were holding back at all. For each punch or kick one threw the other had a counter. The stalemate went on for a couple of minutes before Omega and Ron both noticed something, the crowd of students were still there watching on as a fight ensued in their cafeteria. Omega was smiling mischievously while Ron contemplated the situation. If any of them were hurt it would be his fault; he had to lure Omega away. He turned quickly to see Kim staring back at him, he once again didn't quite know who she was for some reason but then something happened in his mind.
Inside Ron's mind two identities were struggling for control. One is the Ron we all know as the Bueno Nacho loving, slightly clumsy, loveable and caring guy who is also sidekick to Kim Possible. The other is a man who looks just like Ron but has a much more serious demeanor. He seems much more mature and concentrated, almost like Ron with a huge shot of courage and knowledge combined with age. Ron and this other character have been talking within the corridors of Ron's mind throughout this battle.
"So you're telling me that you were reincarnated in me?" Ron asked
"Yes, as to the why or how I'm not sure but it has something to do with your lineage. I believe we might be related in some way." The mysterious character replied
"Then who are... or were you?" Ron said with more confusion setting in
"I was a powerful ruler in the times of old. You could say I was a Pharaoh long ago. I had realized that my brother, Omega, was plotting his revenge for me after I had inherited the throne by my birthright since I was firstborn. He resented me for it and vowed that he would one day rule the world and finish me off. I had somehow figured out his plan and stopped his revenge by killing him before his plot could be completed. I knew that he would one day find a way back so I instructed my council who ad mystical powers, as did we all in the days of old, to preserve me and awaken me when he returned to pose a threat to the world. Unfortunately he seems to have chosen now to come back and continue his revenge, you happen to be the vessel within which I've been resurrected. I'm sorry but now both our fates and destinies have been intertwined."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you trying to tell me that you're some spirit that has taken over my body and now I'm in mortal danger because of some chance reawakening?" Ron managed to say as he tried to comprehend everything
"Essentially yes. I'm truly sorry that you must share my burden young one but we have little choice right now. Hmm…"
"What?" Ron asked as the figure thought to himself
"There is a girl who keeps looking at us."
"Really? Who?"
"I'm not sure but she has green eyes and auburn hair. I think I may have seen her before when that ninja attacked earlier but only for a moment before you took over again." The figure replied
"Oh, that's just Kim. Wait a second that's Kim!" Ron yelled
"So? Should I know something about her?"
"Well yeah. She's my best friend and kind of a hero, we try to stop the wacko bad guys." Ron said nonchalantly
"Maybe she can help."
"How?"
"Well we need to get these innocent bystanders out of the way before they're hurt. You say her name's Kim?" he asked Ron
"Yeah. Wait a second. What can I call you?"
"I have many names, Pharaoh, Alpha, but my friends call me Marion." Marion replied
"Alright. You've earned my trust. Let's stop this psycho, Omega." Ron said
"Gladly." Was all that Marion answered with before the conversation ended and though it seemed like it took a while was mere moments as the scene around Ron and Omega hadn't changed.
"Kim!" Marion called out. "Get everyone away from here now!" he managed to yell as he caught Omega's attention by giving him a low sweeping kick to knock him off balance
Omega responded by resuming their series of punches and kicks. Most people and the crowd didn't need a second warning as they made their way out of the cafeteria and away from the fight. Kim was getting the last few students rounded up who didn't go out after the first group. All the while keeping an eye on Ron and making sure he didn't get distracted or start losing at which point she knew she'd jump in and try her luck again but her bruises were enough to tell her not to try again unless she had to.
"Is that the best you've got to throw at me?" Marion said
"Hmm… now that you mention it, no I can do better." Omega looked to the side quickly to notice Kim watching and quickly waved his arm to force her to fly to him. Once he had her firmly in his grip, he began to strangle her neck by applying pressure with one of his arms and using the other to squeeze her stomach forcing the air left in her out. Kim's bright green eyes were widening with looks of pain and she felt like she was about to pass out.
Ron was seeing the whole thing from Marion's point of view and he quickly told Marion to do something and save Kim. Marion said to Omega, "Let her go! This is still between you and me, not her."
"Oh but it is, you see that look in your eyes tells me she means something to you and that's reason enough for me to kill her." Omega said as he mercilessly continued assaulting Kim
Marion looked around and waved his arm at Omega. "Don't you realize that we're both immune to that power being used on us. Perhaps you don't remember more than I thought." Omega smirked
"You weren't my direct target." Marion smiled as a table from out of no where slammed into Omega's back causing him to release Kim. Marion jumped forward and grabbed her. She was gasping for air and was red in the face from her near strangulation.
"We need to get her out of here!" Ron told Marion who seemed to nod in agreement and they grabbed Kim and quickly made their escape while Omega recovered.
"We shall meet again! And next time I shall be victorious brother!"
To Be Continued… What is Omega trying to accomplish? Are Marion's objectives truly good? Will Kim be alright? For that matter, will Ron be alright? Answers to these and many more questions will be revealed in the next few chapters.
So how'd you like chapter 9? Good so far or is it getting a little too odd for your tastes. I'm not sure what you guys might think so tell me because I need to know. Once again I apologize for the long wait between the last chapter and this one but it will not happen again. Please R/R and thanks in advance.
