* * * * * A week later. . . * * * * *

Kim had been in the hospital under serious care for a while, her cuts were not only very bad, she had lost a lot of blood. Kim had woken up yesterday and was beginning to focus her eyes. The first face she looked at was Ron's, a worried expression laid on it. Then she saw Jim and Tim eating her breakfast. 'Great.' She thought, 'They can have it. I hate hospital food.'

Ron made his way back over to Kim's bed and he asked, "Are you okay KP?" "Fine." Kim said still happy that she had been victorious. Rufus popped out of Ron's sleeve and gave Kim a little hug. "Your mom demanded you stay longer so you can stay until you feel completely better. Kim sat up and held her stomach, "What about school." "Medical excuse for a while." Ron replied looking at the bandage on her face. "I'm scarred all over right?" Kim asked with a little laugh. Ron nodded solemnly.

Dr. Possible peeked her head through the door. "Oh Kimmie! You're awake! We were so worried!" "No big." Kim replied weakly. Dr. Possible went over and smacked the two twins who were just finishing up Kim's orange juice. "You boys should know better, your sister needs this." Jim and Tim apologized at the same time and carried the remains on the tray over to Kim. "No, its okay. I'm not really hungry. Can I got home yet?" Kim asked hopefully. "No Kimmie, I'm afraid you aren't strong enough yet. And I must insist you eat." Kim moaned and flopped back on her uncomfortable hospital bed. "Oh Kimmie! I almost forgot you have a visitor! She's been stopping by for days now! Do you want her to come in?" "Sure."

Dr. Possible walked out of the room to go get the visitor. "I wonder who it is?" Kim said out loud. Jim and Tim shrugged and turned on the TV and flipped through the channels. "What a rip off!" Jim said, "You have to order everything good!" Tim finished for him. "Perhaps I can help." Said a familiar voice. Kim weakly flipped over to see Scarlet Rose standing in the doorway. Just the Dr. Possible was paged and she hurried out of the room. "I wanted to thank you for, retrieving my album. Ron delivered it." She grinned, "Feeling any better?" "Not really." Kim said honestly.

Just then the Kimmunicator beeped and Ron answered it. Kim said from the bed, "Hey Wade, what's the sitch?" Wade laughed softly. "None for a while. The villains seem to be taking some sort of long break about something. So how are you feeling, I see you are a awake." Kim shrugged. "Not my best." She laughed. "Anyway, I just wanted to make sure you were alright. I'm going to find a way to hold up all your missions as long as possible." "Great." Kim said taking a remote and shutting off the TV. It was giving her a headache, Jim and Tim yelled out at the same time, "Hey!"

"I'm really surprised Shego could do this much damage." Wade continued, "Hey not as much as I am." Kim interrupted. "Well, I guess Drakken had a good plan this time. "But it wasn't good enough." Said Scarlet Rose excitedly. Wade beeped off the Kimmunicator and Ron placed it back on the end table.

Scarlet Rose sat Kim up and started to brush her tangled red hair. "Anyway, I wanted to thank you." Scarlet Rose continued, "Soooo. I decided to pay enough for you to have home care." "Are you serious?!" Kim exclaimed right away gleefully. "Yes!" Scarlet responded with the same amount of excitement. "This is great! I can't wait to tell my mom!" "This will be your last night here!" Scarlet said tying Kim's hair into a big fat bun. "Thank you so much." Ron said to the blonde singing-sensation. "It's the least I can do. I feel so bad about this whole tragedy. It was completely all my fault."

"N-no it wasn't." Everyone in the room turned around to see who said that. And Shego walked awkwardly into the room!
