Kim almost dropped the Kimmunicater when she heard Wade say who Dr. Drakken
was after. This was insane! Why would he want to capture Ron? He hardly
caused him trouble, unless it was an accident. Ron usually ran from
Drakken.so.what was the deal here? "Hey, Kim? Are you ok?" Came Wade's
voice. Kim shook her head then focused on Wade. "Why is he after Ron?"
She asked, her voice coming out as a squeak. Whether she would admit it to
herself or not, she was worried for him. Knowing Dr. Drakken, he would use
him for some creepy experiment. Her heart did a painful summersault. Wade
began to type on his computer once more. "Well, Kim." He began. "I really
don't know. Dr. Drakken covered up his tracks pretty well this time. It's
going to take me longer then usual to figure things out. But I do know one
thing. Keep an eye on Ron!" With that Wade's picture disappeared and the
Kimmunicater's screen went blank. Kim realized she was holding her breath.
Breathing, she ran to the phone. Quickly she dialed Ron's number.
Ron ran for the phone as he heard it ring. "Yea?" He answered. "Ron?" Came a high-pitched voice. Ron smiled. "Hey KP! What's up?" Kim sighed as she heard his voice. At least he was ok for now. "Hey Ron, can you do me a favor?" Ron switched the phone to his right hand as he raised an eyebrow. Kim hardly ever asked him to do something for her unless it was *try to be cool*. "Yea sure, what is it." Kim sighed. "Be careful." With that the phone went dead. Ron raised an eyebrow. Be careful? Was there something that he should know that she wasn't telling him? Were there monkeys running around trying to take over the world again? "AAH!" Screamed Ron as he looked around in fear.
The next day at school, Kim ran as fast as she could. She wouldn't admit it. But she was afraid that Dr. Drakken had already captured Ron. Bursting through the school doors she ran for his locker. He wasn't there. Her heart began to pound in worriment. "Ron?" She cried. "Psst.I'm in here." Came Ron's familiar voice. Kim looked around frantically. "Ron?" She asked, confused. "In my locker!" Came his voice. Kim sighed as she swung open his locker. Low and behold he was there. Kim raised an eyebrow. "Ron.you moron. What are you doing in there? You don't even fit!" Ron put a finger to his mouth. "Shh!" He hissed. "They'll hear you!" Kim raised an eyebrow. This was getting to be too much. "What are you talking about?" "The monkeys.they're trying to take over the world!!" Kim smacked her forehead. "Ron.go get some help." With that she slammed the locker door shut.
"Hey Kim!" Kim turned around and saw Ron walking toward her. She smiled. Then she smirked. "Did you finally face your monkey problem?" Ron stuck his nose up in the air. "Noo.but I realized. They wouldn't follow me to school, with all of these people here. Too many witnesses." Kim smacked her forehead. "Ron. Oh, never mind." Ron shrugged. Then he glanced over at her as she sat down. "Hey Kim." Kim looked up at him. "Yea?" "What was that call about last night?" Kim stared at him with wavering eyes before she looked back down at her food. "Well, I got a call from Wade, about Drakken, and I wanted you to be careful. You never know what he's up to." Ron cocked his head. "Are you saying I can't take care of myself?" Kim's eyes widened as she looked up at him. "N-no, well, I don't know! Yes and no." Ron shrugged. "Ok." With that he sat down. Kim sighed. She was relieved that he didn't press on about that topic. It was making her very squirmy and uncomfortable. The two began to eat when they heard a familiar sneer. Kim looked up and saw Bonnie. She frowned. "Hello Bonnie." Bonnie sneered. "Look guys, it's the girl from Loser Ville." The squad began to laugh along with Bonnie. They didn't want to make their new captain angry. She was scary when she was angry. Kim rolled her eyes. "That's old Bonnie, really old." Bonnie raised an eyebrow before she began to laugh. "At least I don't hang out with a freak." The squad began to laugh as they walked off. Kim clenched her fists. "Ohh!" She grumbled. "Can't she just give it up?!" Ron looked around. "Who do you hang out with that's a loser?" Kim banged her head on the table. Why her?
"Ron! Wait for me!" Cried Kim as she ran to catch up with Ron. He looked back, confused. Then he remembered. Kim didn't have cheerleading practice anymore. He smiled inwardly. This would give him more time to hang out with her! Kim smiled at him as she caught up with him. "Do you mind if I walk with you?" She asked, trying to catch her breath. Ron shook his head. Why would he mind? "No, you can come.but I'm going to the pet store to get Rufus a pillow." Kim raised an eyebrow. "A pillow?" Ron shrugged. "Whaat? The one's at the mall are too big for him! He needs a place to sleep to!" Kim sighed as she smiled. She might as well get used to it. This was Ron, and she couldn't change that. She had tried once, and it had gotten to his head. "Do you mind if I tag along then?" Ron shook his head. "Nah. Anyway, Rufus and I might need your opinion. You never know!" Kim shrugged.
Ron glanced over at Kim as they walked toward the pet store. She was really pretty. Although, she looked really sad. Her green eyes were downcast and glazed over. It was as if she was far away, and this wasn't even the real Kim. Suddenly he realized he was staring. Blushing he quickly cast his gaze down to the ground. What was wrong with him? He wasn't supposed to stare at his best friend, especially when he felt giddy while doing it. That was just.wrong. This wasn't the first time either. For the past few weeks he had caught himself staring at her and admiring her. Ron felt himself blush. Maybe he was getting sick or something.
Kim and Ron looked around the pet store in awe. There were actually a lot of things here that you wouldn't expect. "Hey Rufus!" Cried Ron. "Look at this! A miniature bed!" Rufus poked his head out of Ron's pocked and looked at the small bed. He wrinkled his nose. "No way." He squeaked. Kim and Ron shared a look as they shrugged. "Can I help you two?" Came a deep voice. The two spun around to see a middle-aged man. Ron hid behind Kim. "Whatever it is, I didn't do it!" He cried. Kim rolled her eyes. "Ignore him sir, but maybe you can help us. You see, we're looking for a sleep area for a naked mole rat." The man raised an eyebrow. "Are you serious." Kim felt herself want to back away and cower like Ron. "Um.yea." The man got up in her face and eyed her. Then he backed away and shrugged. "Ok, follow me." With that he turned around and began to walk. Kim grabbed Ron's wrist and dragged him along.
"Here you kids go." Said the man as he walked away. Kim thanked him as she turned into the isle he had pointed to. "Ok Rufus," She smiled as she took him from Ron's hands. "Take your pick." Rufus grinned as he jumped from her hands and began to try each bed out. Kim raised an eyebrow as she leaned in toward Ron. "Is he aloud to do that?" Ron shrugged. "Who knows?" Kim shrugged after Ron and continued to watch Rufus.
About an hour later, Rufus finally made a decision. "Finally." Kim grumbled as she followed Ron toward Rufus. "Hey Rufus! Which one did ya pick?" Rufus pointed to an elaborate miniature papason. Ron laughed. "That's my little buddy!" Kim smiled, although she hid it from Ron. Instead she rolled her eyes. "Can we just go?" Ron looked over at Kim. "Touchy." Rufus stuck his tongue out at Kim. "Yea, touchy!" He squeaked. Kim sighed as she led the way to the cash register.
Ron ran for the phone as he heard it ring. "Yea?" He answered. "Ron?" Came a high-pitched voice. Ron smiled. "Hey KP! What's up?" Kim sighed as she heard his voice. At least he was ok for now. "Hey Ron, can you do me a favor?" Ron switched the phone to his right hand as he raised an eyebrow. Kim hardly ever asked him to do something for her unless it was *try to be cool*.
