( A mad-as-ever duo of Drakken and Shego have just returned to their first lair at Mt. Middleton. In the left-hand corner of the screen, we pass by two tubes with a large switchboard; the duplication machine, another device going to the junkyard. Drakken is gnashing his teeth at a desk while Shego does some homecleaning.)
Drakken:
I can't believe it. Everytime I have Kim Possible, the one roadblock to my conquest of the world, she somehow finds way to slip through my grasp. And to make things worse, my last scheme was not ruined by her who I had successfully neutralized, but-by him! It is annoying! Humilating! Shego? Turn off that infernal vacumn cleaner, Shego! I'm trying to think!( to himself) I wish I didn't need her, annoying me every time, ridiculing me after she ruins my plans. Blast my low P.E. scores. Ah, well, time for the blue book again. Un-huh..Operation Magma-check, Operation Roulette- check, Operation Alter Ego- check, Killer Bebes- check… Incredible! All of these hours of studying science, and meticulous planning, and it has been all in vain thanks to( sarcastic) Kim Possible. Think, Drakken, think! You're a supergenius, she's just a high school student.. There must be some way. Hmm.. He gazes toward his duplication machine, rises from his chair, walks through a pile of trash near Shego, and heads over to it, removes the tarp covering it and sending more dirt to the floor. Drakken rubs his chin in reflection.) Shego, are you near the storage closet?
Shego
Yes, boss.
Drakken:
Can you bring me my toolbox?( We hear Shego rummaging in the closet) And when you've done that, I hope you will be kind enough to sweep up near the cloning machine!
Shego
My work is never done, huh?
Drakken
Do you say something, Shego?
Shego
No,(under her breath) if you didn't hear me.( A grumbling Shego brings over the toolbox to Drakken, who rummages inside for various tools; Shego goes over to a water cooler brought by Drakken a few weeks previous , takes a cup, fills it and deliberately put some dirt in it, along with several strands of red hair.) Hey, boss?
Drakken:
What?
Shego:
I was just wondering if you'd like some water.
Darken:
Ah, there's a nice surprise. Yes, I will accept your civil offer-Ow!( As he is talking to Shego, Darken accidentally grabbed some wires from the control panel and received a small shock. Shego turns around and looks at a approaching Drakken in surprise, whose own hair is standing straight up. )
Shego:
Um, are you okay?
Drakken:
Yes, I am. Where is it?
Shego:( feigning ignorance)
Where is what?
Drakken
The cup, Shego!
Shego
What cup?
Drakken
The one you said you were going to give to me.
Shego
The cup of what?
Drakken
The cup of water, Shego!
Shego
The cup of water? From where
Drakken
The cup of water from behind you.
Shego
From where behind me?
Drakken
Stop being so dense! I am talking about the cup of water from the water cooler behind you, Shego, in your hand that were going to give to me!.. Please.( Shego grins as she gives him the cup.)
Shego
Which hand?( Drakken angrily grabs the cup and drinks the water . He walks away from Shego toward the duplication machine, this time kneeling next to the control panel.)
Drakken
Enough! I don't have time for our daily argument, Shego. I have plans to make, a world to conquer and a certain teen superhero to destroy!( Shego goes over to the desk and takes out a scrunched-up magazine from her pocket: Surf n'Turf. )
Shego:( under her breath)
Like she's really scared .
Drakken:
I hope I didn't hear that!( He opens the control panel and peers inside; inside are several wires crossing one another: blue, red, green, and black. Drakken pauses, reaches into his toolbox and takes out a large flashlight.)
Shego
You're welcome! Wouldn't hear a word I say! So typical!( Cradling the flashlight under his left shoulder, Drakken takes out a wretch, looking carefully at three red wires between its jaws.)
Drakken
So far, so good. Uh, huh. Nothing!( opens the wrench and releases the green wires. Darken grabs some black wires and inspects them.) No evident glitches. What is it? What does Kim Possible have that I do not?
Shego
Common sense?
Drakken
Au contaire, Shego, if Kim Possible had any common sense, she would be a fashion consultant, not a do-gooding, meddling red-haired superhero!
Shego( under her breath)
I wouldn't say that.
Drakken
What? If you have something to say to me, say it aloud! It's bad enough to have Kim Possible in my way, but I've also got a equally-mad assistant who refuses to-oww!( Suddenly, as Drakken tightens his grip on the pilers, the covering is slowly torn apart and the wire begins to spark. Shego turns around and, sensing the danger, pushes Drakken out of the way. As Shego looks at the wrecked machine, Drakken's face turns green as he covers his mouth, trying not to throw up.)
Shego
You don't look so good
Drakken
You think I don't know that?( With that, he faints from his exhausting ordeal. Shego goes over to the desk and, supporting Drakken on her shoulder, puts him in the chair. )
( Sometime later, as a snoring Darken sleeps, Shego comes back to the lair, carrying a newspaper, and two paper bags marked Bueno Nacho)
Shego
That drive-in window was annoying. That kid couldn't stop looking at me. He's lucky that I wasn't armed-( Darken is mumbling in his sleep)What is it?
Drakken
Z-sk-wha?( shocked)It can't be! Kim Possible! Here? You may have found me, but you'll never get me!( In his haste, he attacks " Kim. " with furious punches. " Kim ", who is really Shego, recoils in surprise. As the fight continues, " Darken sees fright in " Kim's eyes. " and smiles, employing a roundhouse kick , which sends Shego across the room. Using her own skill, Shego backflips onto her feet.)
Shego
This is not what I need. Boss, have a drink( Shego, taking some water from the cooler, charges Drakken and flips over his punches, splashing the water on him.)
Drakken
( rubbing his eyes) Shego? Where is that Kim Possible? She was practically screaming for mercy!
Shego
I hate to tell you, but she was me!
Drakken
What? But I was beating her with such skill, dodging her –but how?
Shego
Me! You were fighting me, nobody else. Don't you get it?!
Darken( ignoring her)
Yes, I do!
Shego
Huh?( Shego is aware of a slight rumbling sound.) I also bought some foo-
Drakken
I understand. Shego, when you swept the floor , were there some strands of hair in the pile?
Shego
I don't know. I just put some dirt in your cup because you didn't like my house-
Drakken
You did?-never mind.( Thinking.) By some strange quirk, the electric shock I received earlier must have temporarily broken the molecular bonds from my DNA and the DNA from the hair strands, causing them to merge. The tables have been balanced, Kim Possible, and you shal-
Shego:
I also brought the newspaper.
Drakken
Oh, the newspaper. Thank you. Ah, the source of daily knowledge about the world, a world waiting for-
Shego
As I was saying, I also bought some food. It's from Bueno Nacho; I only had ten dollars, so I took advantage of their speci-!
Drakken:
What? Oh. ( sighs) A sloppy taco is better than a moldy slice of bread.( He takes a bag, removes the Nacos, and begins to eat. As he eats, he looks through the newspaper, and flips through the pages, frowning on most of the articles. In the midst of his poring, however, Drakken lets out a loud gasp at one headline: FAMOUS HADES STONE NOW AT MIDDLETON MUSEUM! )
We now skip to a half-hour later as Shego and Drakken climb from a hovering helicopter onto the roof of the museum.)
Shego
Is it me or is this so outrageous? You can't expect to rob a museum in broad daylight!
Drakken
Shego, we're not robbing the museum! The item we seek is in the museum!
Shego
Wouldn't it have been easier to go underco-
Drakken
No, too obvious. This way allows us to avoid being detected by any visitors since these social pawns are either looking at some abstract painting or a fossilzed dinosaur. And besides..( As Darken leans closer to the skylight, we hear the sounds of a brief struggle, the slight hiss of gas, and nothing more.)without a security guard, how can a simple gem exhibit scare us? Tallyho!( drops a rope into the now-open skylight. Shego has started back toward the helicopter. Darken attaches some plastic cups to his hands and knees.) Shego, what are you doing?
Shego
Hoping to make a quick getaway.( The gas grenade used by Darken's henchmen has served a extra purpose: Shego is able to see the laser grid surrounding the gem, securing it from any possible theft ) Are you crazy?
Drakken
Yes, I am( Drakken goes down the rope, hand-over-hand,getting closer to the lasers with every second. Just as he approaches the gem, Shego turns away, trembling in frustration.)
Shego
(groaning) Are we going to get it!( Shego, hearing a slight sound, turns back to the skylight, poised for action, but instead of a security guard, a smiling Drakken comes up, sending Shego into stunned disbelief.)
Drakken
How did I avoid the lasers surrounding our quarry? Notice these cups on my knees? These are actually convex lenses, which refracted the lasers away from me for a total of twenty seconds, enabling me to slide down, do a handstand, and grab the Hades Stone. Any more questions?
Shego
Nice. Now that your egotistism has been satisfied, can we go before she gets here?
Drakken
She?! Ah..She. Into the helicopter, Shego! I'll teleport the other two to the lair when we get back
Shego
Yes, Sir!
( Back at Kim's house, just outside her bedroom, Ron looks around the hall nervously; the time is now 3:30. We hear the sound of footsteps as Kim comes up the stairs, slipping against the wall as she goes past her twin brothers's bedroom; Tim and Jim are apparently unaware as they are playing a videogame: Galactic Warriors 3.)
Kim
Did they see me?
Ron
No, Kim.
Kim
Good. If Tim or Jim found this( pointing to her report card), I would be dead meat!
Ron
It's just a report card. Why are you so upset?!
Kim
Not to my parents. They save all my report cards! They put them in a display case, and show them to friends every so often, but now-
Ron
Don't cry, Kim. It's not that bad. My parents usually do double takes with my grades.( Smiling) Boy, they'll be doing a lot of them tonigh-
Kim
( musing) What If I- Nah!
Ron
What, Kim?
Kim
If I show it to them, I'll be in trouble. If I don't show it to them, I'll be in bigger trouble. They might ground me for the whole summer., but, on the other hand-
Ron
Kim, what are you talkimg about?( Kim turns toward Ron, peering at his face, and then turns away again.) Hello! Earth to Kim! Are you receiving?
Kim
Can you keep a secret?
Ron
( confused) I..I haven't done this for quite a while. I am not sure..( While Ron tries to answer Kim's question, a welcome signal is heard from the closet. Opening it, and hearing the signal from her action outfit, Kim takes out her Kimmunicator from the pocket, and activates it.
Kim
What's the word, Wade?
Wade
I just got a transmission from the Museum: it seems that a group of big thugs broke into the Middleton Museum, and knocked out the guards protecting the Fist of Hades. .( While Wade has been talking, Kim has gone to the bathroom and changed into her outfit.)
Kim
Fist of Hades? Lemme guess, it's some kind of mythical gem, right?
Kim
Shego, I assume?
Wade
Yes and no, Kim.
Kim
Huh?
Wade
Well, the police discovered footprints near the display, about fourteen inches in length; the shoes left deep impressions in the carpet
Kim
( very surprised) Odd, anything else I should know?
Wade
Two. Firstly, click your boots together two times.
Kim
What?
Wade
Trust me, Kim, it's important. ( Kim clicks her boots together two times. When she starts to walk forward, her feet are pulled toward her bedroom wall; by the time she is aware of this, she is on the ceiling, looking down on Ron.)
Kim
Ok, what did you do, Wade?
Wade
One more time.( When she does so, Kim drops from the ceiling, and is astonished to find herself floating in mid-air.) Once you become a world-famous superhero, I knew that you would need a lot of gadgets, so I got some spare Magi-Grav soles and onto your boots
Kim
They're awesome. Where did you get these?.
Wade
Will Do.
Kim
You've got to be kidding?! The agent from Global Justice who did not consider me to be a agent?
Wade
The same. He said that his pride wouldn't allow him to acknowledge your skill and that if you want, he can-( As he talks, Kim's ear picks up the horn of her mother's car.
Kim
( under her breath) Dad will be here in thirty minutes. Wade, where is Drakken?
Wade
I'll check( He turns back to his computer, and opens a file marked DRAKKEN; in it is a large map of the world with red dots, each marking one of arch-enemy's main lairs. As Wade looks at the screen, one of the dots, near Middleton, begins to flash.) What do you know? He's just outside of town. I'll get in touch with the museum; they might have a extra helicopter
Ron
He did use a lot of equipment last time
Kim
( Ignoring him)Thanks, Wade. Ron!
Ron
Yeah?
Kim
Here's the plan: You stay here with my brothers while I go after Drakken.( She walks to the bedroom window and opens
Ron
Come on, Kim. Won't you need me to distract Drakken's goons?
Kim
Ron, you've got something bigger to distract: my parents!( Kim taps her boots twice, and walks down the ceiling to the street;Ron looks at the report card in disappointment)
Ron
The world is in danger, Kim's out to save it, and I'm left to protect a silly report card. Mann..
