"What are you doing here?" asked Kim keeping her guard up. She was still injured; this was low even for Shego. "I came --- to apologize." Kim blinked, and stuttered, "Y-you did?!" Scarlet glared at her, "You're the one who stole my album in the first place! Aren't you?" Shego stepped in the room and everyone moved away just an inch or so. "Yeah, I am." Kim looked at Shego, she didn't look anything like herself. She wasn't wearing her ugly black and green stretch suit. Just a pair of faded jeans and an over sized tee-shirt. Ron suddenly yelped, "WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR HAIR?!"
Shego flicked her hair with her fingers, "I cut it. What do you think?" No one even responded. Her new appearance had everyone in shock except Scarlet who crossly moved towards her. "You did this to Kim?! How could you be so heartless?" Scarlet demanded and then she slapped Shego across the face. Everyone in the room gasped knowing that Scarlet had made a dreadful blunder, but Shego just smiled. "You must be Scarlet Rose. I am a big fan." Shego said softly ignoring the whack that she obviously deserved. "Well I can't say I am of you." Scarlet said at last.
Ron helped Kim get out of bed and they came straight up to Shego. "Never mind the past, the point is. Why are you apologizing?" Shego sat down in a chair and rubbed her forehead. "It was immoral; I shouldn't have made you suffer this much. And I know that sorry isn't good enough to get your forgiveness." Kim leaned on Ron's shoulder a bit. "You're right. It isn't." Shego sat back and her eyes were beginning to tear a bit, "I quit working for Drakken.
Kim was taken aback, 'Shego quit working for Drakken? After they had been so successful like that?' Kim responded, "Really?" "Yeah." "But why? We thought you loved your job." Shego skimmed the room and saw Jim and Tim staring at her interested. She wanted to bawl out the reason, but she didn't want everyone to hear it. "I quit because, it was wrong what he made you go through." "You mean what YOU made me go through." Kim said through gritted teeth. "Yes." Shego obviously had heard her. "That's why I want to pay for your home care." "But why?" Shego stood up and walked around the room excitedly, "Because I want to start a new life. No evil involved just a normal happy life. So here's my first good deed."
Kim scratched her hair auburn and raised and eye brow. "I don't know if I can believe you." "I understand that." Shego laughed, "I want to get a regular home, and a good paying job." "So you came for my help?" asked Kim. "I know where she could work!" Ron volunteered, and Rufus licked his face hungrily. "Shego is so not working at Bueno Nacho." "Kim's right, I am so not." Shego shyly smiled. Kim really was not a big fan of Shego right now but, she was asking for help and Kim didn't want to be so cold as to turn her down.
"FINE. I'll help you. Where are you living now?" Kim asked in an uninterested tone. "Hotels mainly." "Figures." Ron muttered. "Why doesn't she come live with us?" Tim suggested, "WHAT?!" Kim shrieked. "We DO have that guest room." Jim said egging Kim on. Kim limped over to the twebs and hissed at them. "YOU WANT HER TO STAY AT OUR HOUSE?!" "Yeah!" Jim said impatiently. "But why?!" "Come on, Kim give her another chance." Tim whined. "Fine! But you have to go convince Mom." Kim sighed in defeat. "Sure! Come on Tim let's go!" Jim and Tim hurried out of the hospital room.
Kim limped back over to Shego and announced, "Well. . . its fine with us." Shego helped Kim back over to her bed and said, "Thank you Kim. I won't be any trouble to you. I promise. Now can I get you anything? Clean clothing maybe?" Kim tilted her head confused but then nodded. "From no where other than Club Banana." Ron warned her. Shego smiled and nodded, then started to leave the room. "Wait Shego!" Kim whispered suddenly. "I still don't trust you." Shego narrowed her eyes and said simply. "Looks like I'll have to work on that then."
Scarlet, Ron, Rufus, and Kim were left in the room. They all just stared at each other in amazement.
