Ron walked slowly to the rod iron gates. They were heavily guarded with pounds of chains.

"How do we get through this?" Ron asked. Wade smiled and took a bobby pin out of his hair. Ron laughed at Wade as he placed the bobby pin in the lock and twisted it around, but stopped when the gates opened. "Smarty pants," Ron said under his breath and slowly walked onto the grounds.

"Where did he tell Shego he was going to hide Kim?" Wade asked tripping over some ivy.

"I think in the second story . . .last room on the left in the hall." Ron said, unsure now that he thought about it. Wade merely shrugged Ron's unsure ness off and ran to the left side of the house.

"Okay, we can get in that room if we climb the side of the house and go through the window," Wade said pointing out the opened window. Ron nodded and opened the backpack. He found the rope and tied it into a lasso.

"If I hook it to the flower box hook, I think it can support my weight," Ron said studying the window with his telescope. Glumly, Wade looked down at his pudgy stomach and sat on a nearby stump.

"And I thought I was going to be able to rescue Kim with you," Wade said. Ron kneeled next to him and handed him a laptop from the backpack.

"You are going to rescue her . . .just in a different way then me," Wade stubbornly opened the computer and turned it on.

"Just go up and save KP." Ron nodded and swung the rope in the air, tossing it up towards the window.

"Got it," he whispered to Wade, then took a deep breath. He had never scaled a house before; he wasn't sure how to go about it. Like a mountain climber, Ron tied the loose end of the rope around his waist, and then gripped the rope tightly.

"Good luck," Wade said to him, and then began to type something into his computer. Ron placed his feet on the side of the house. The rope seemed stable. Slowly, Ron began to walk up the side of the house. He danced for himself when he got to the top and climbed into the window. The house was dark and dusty. Kim would never let Ron live like this. For several minutes, Ron couldn't hear anything, then he heard Shego and Jeremy talking.

"Is everything set?" Shego asked.

"Yes. Kim is in place. We are ready to suck the brain out of her. Then you, my beautiful, will hold more knowledge then ever. Everyone knows how big of a brainiac Kim is!" Shego let out an evil laugh.

"Perfect, perfect," she purred. Ron poked his head into the room. Shego and Jeremy were sitting together on a bed.

"Yes, then we can rule the world!" Jeremy said laughing.

"Whatever. So where is Kimmie?"

"Last room down the hall. I have her mind thinking not to leave the room at all unless I tell her too. She is in what I call, complete state of mine."

"Clever. Listen; go fix me something to eat. I want a full stomach so I can fully enjoy the sucking of her brain," Shego said with a laugh. Ron heard them walking towards the door so he ducked into a small dark room. For several minutes he didn't move or make any noise. He even had to slow his breathing so he wouldn't be too loud. Once he was sure they were gone, he turned on the light.

"Wow," was all he could say. It appeared he was in a storage room of some sort. In fact, it reminded him of something right out of a wizard or witch movie. There were tons of old looking books all around and a lot of eerie things. There was on book on a podium facing the window. Ron closed the door behind him and walked to the podium. The book was opening to a very old yellowish page. "Mind control . . .?" he said looking at the page. Right there in the book was a very simple guide to controlling someone's mind in two months or less. Instantly, Ron knew Jeremy was some sort of wizard or warlock. Probably the only reason Shego would date such a creep! The mini computer screen in his pocket buzzed.

"What do you want now?" Ron asked. Wade impatiently crossed his arms and gave Ron a stern look. Ron sighed and answered again. "Hey Wade, what's the sitch?"

"That's better. Okay. I just a load of research on this Jeremy guy. It turns out he's a. . ."

"A wizard or a warlock of some sort. I got that already. What else?" Wade crossed his arms and gave Ron another stern look.

"I'm supposed to find everything out. Just go save him!" Wade said in a huff. Obviously these two were not meant to be partners in crime. On the next page, he found a list of ways to get the person out of the trance; it only depended on the wizard and how the spell was done. There was a piece ripped off, but Ron figured that it wasn't important and that it just fell off the page from being so old. Ron book marked the page then ran to the room down the hall. Kim was sitting on a stool brushing her hair like a mindless drone.

"We're going out!" Jeremy yelled from the bottom of the stairs. Kim kept brushing her hair and didn't look back.

"Alright," was all she said. Ron shut the door behind him and threw the book on the bed. Kim jumped and threw her brush at him. She sat straight up when she saw it was Ron. "Why are you here?" she asked all snotty. Ron grabbed the book and read the first sentence to himself. 'Scare them.' He knew Kim was scared of the dark when she was alone. All he had to do was shut off the lights and stay still, making Kim think she was alone. Right away, he flipped the switch down and stood erect.

"Ron?" Kim called out. She called his name out a few more times. Each time sounding more and more scared. Slowly, he crept up on her and grabbed her around the waist.

"ARGH!" he hollered. She screamed and fell onto her bed. Ron ran and turned the light on, but Kim was still screaming. He sighed and looked at the book. 'Switch her shoes.' Ron lunged to the ground and grabbed the shoe off her left foot and the shoe on her right foot, switching them. Kim stopped screaming and looked at her feet.

"What are you? A freak or something?" Kim said kicking her shoes off. An hour and 62 solutions later, Kim was still in a deep, mind control trance.

"Listen. You better leave. I don't like you and Jeremy doesn't like you. Leave us alone!" Kim screamed. Downstairs, he could hear Jeremy and Shego come home. He grabbed the book and leapt out the window, landing right next to Wade who was busily typing on his computer.

"Where's the girl?" he asked, not bothering to look up. Ron grumbled and went to scale the wall again, but he could see Kim and Jeremy holding hands, but Jeremy was dragging her. He stood at a tombstone with a gargoyle. He placed his hands on the gargoyles ears and pulled the forward. Beneath them, the ground disappeared and there were stairs. Shego came out of the house and disappeared underground with them.

"I'm going in," Ron said running to the gargoyle. Just as Jeremy did, he pulled the ears forward. The ground below rumbled and shook violently. If Ron weren't holding on to its ears, he would have fallen over. At the bottom of the steps, Ron could hear Shego and Jeremy talking.

"Strap her up, now!" Shego ordered.

"What's going on?" Kim asked. Ron could someone hit the slate flooring. He took a guess Jeremy pushed Kim.

"Just do what she says," Jeremy said. Ron leapt from the top of the stairs with a new type of laser gun Wade developed. Supposedly, it would petrify a person for five to ten minutes.

"FREEZE!" he screamed pointing the gun. When he realized it was at the wall, he turned slowly and started to laugh. "This isn't my cousin's basement," he said. Jeremy frowned and lunged forward. "EEK!"
