Ron woke up the next morning, looking over at Kim beside him, still asleep. He felt a weird feeling come over him looking at her. It was love, Ron never really experienced this before for anyone except his family. After Kim kissed him, his feelings came out of their dormant state and became to overcome him. He smiled as he sat up and got out of his sleeping bag and started to take down his tent. As he was packing everything back up, something fell out of the side compartment of his backpack, a picture. Ron picked it up and looked closely at it, it was a picture of Ron and Kim in kindergarden playing with each other on the playground. Ron smiled, "I'll always remember that day Rufus." Ron told his pet, who was sitting on his shoulder. "That was the day I met her, you know. Kim has always been my best friend, and that will never change." He said, looking back at the still sleeping Kim.

Jason came out of his tent, talking on the phone silently so that no one would hear, "Yes sir, the same lair that I found them in, I know. Yes, I don't believe that any of the events so far have influenced them. Actually sir, when he rescued her from the blimp it might of accelerated it. Yes, yes, I will keep you posted, we'll be leaving in a few minutes, Jason out." He put away the phone and disassembled his tent, he called over to Ron, "Ron! Wake Kim up! We'll be able to get Drakken at his lair if we hurry."

Ron nodded. He walked over and knelt beside her, he could hear her gentle breathing. Ron stroked his hand through Kim's hair, so soft he thought to himself. Kim turned and opened her eyes, she saw Ron and smiled, "Good morning." Kim said sweetly as she sat up in her sleeping bag, looking at Ron.

"We gotta get going Kim, Jason says that we can get Drakken if we hurry, he's back at his lair." Ron said, standing back up.

Kim got up and rolled up her sleeping bag, "Alright then, he's ours!" Kim said, starting to put her bring her tent down, then Ron came over and helped her.

"Kim do you remember the first day we met each other?" Ron asked, folding down one end.

Kim smiled, "Like it was yesterday Ron, like it was yesterday." She said, folding down the other end. They both brought their folded ends together, sort of a symbolic act that the two had a new relationship.

Ron brought his arm around Kim's shoulder, both of them sort of blushed while walking over to the car where Jason was waiting. "Back to Drakken's lair, that's where they're keeping the engine." He said, starting up the car.

"Is that where my dad is being held?" Kim asked him.

"Yes, he's fine. You and Ron go get your dad, I'll take care of Drakken." Jason said, now crusing along the expressway into Arizona again. "I'll have to take you two to see the future, once we get this all cleared up. It's a fascinating place." Jason said, trying to start up conversation.

"What am I like in the future?" Kim asked Jason, as they neared Drakken's lair.

"I'm really not supposed to divulge any information. It might change your thinking, and thus disrupt the future. But I will tell you one thing, your very successful in the future Kim." He said, looking down at the GPS system, which was honed in on the lair. "Ron, your also successful in the future as well."

"Just how I like it!" Ron said, looking out the window.

"Are Ron and I still fighting villains in the future?" Kim said.

Jason looked forward, and wondered about answering this, he figured, what the hell. "Yes, your still in the fight for good in the future." He answered. Kim looked back at Ron, who was still looking out the window, and she turned forward. "I wonder how this is going to work out..." She thought to herself as the car came to a stop in front of a gigantic cave.

"Here we are." Jason said, jumping out of the car, carrying his new machine laser gun. They walked into the cave and saw the same huge hole, with an incline which they boarded.

"Be ready..." Jason said, starting the incline and readying his gun. Ron and Kim stood silently and looked out the windows of the incline, seeing only cave walls and tracks for the car. Suddenly, the incline came to a halt at the bottom of the hole, all that could be seen was darkness. The three got out, slowly walking, Jason turned on the flashlight on his gun and shined the light in front of them, they started looking for the engine, but were finding nothing. Ron ran into something, and was startled, then the lights came on in forms of spotlights, shining down on the three. They huddled together as guards came from many directions. Jason shot down a few, while Kim and Ron fought them off one by one. The room was suddenly lit by a huge light shining down from the ceiling. At least one hundred guards were in the room, and behind them on a stage was Drakken, Shego, Sr. Senior Sr., and Sr. Senior Jr. and the top secret engine.

"Your surrounded Kim, take a look honey!" Shego yelled, jumping down from the stage into the group of guards. Kim looked all around, seeing endless guards and no way out. They huddled closely as the guards converged on them trying to think of something fast...
