Drakken and Shego squeezed between a large multitude of people; Actually, Shego shoved her way through. Drakken laughed, 'Shego, always impatient as usual.' He thought.
"Performing tonight comes a well known artist to us all. Her lyrics are creative and the music always hits us close to the heart. Her talent has brought pleasure to all ages. Ladies and Gentleman, please join me in welcoming Scarlet-Rose!" Shego jumped from shock, then she mouthed the words, "What the hell?" To Drakken whom just shrugged and applauded.
Sure enough, Scarlet stepped out on stage wearing a skimpy salmon- colored outfit. Following behind her were more than ten other jazz musicians. Scarlet adjusted the microphone height at the piano, then spoke clearly into it. "Hello everyone! Before I begin, I'd like to bring your attention to two people in the audience!" Shego slapped her forehead, "This can't be happening." Shego muttered at Scarlet yanked Drakken and Shego on the stage. Drakken was bewildered; he had never even met this teenager before. "This is Shego and Drakken! And thanks to them, my performance is possible!" Scarlet shouted into the microphone applauding. The audience clapped thunderously. Scarlet turned around and quickly winked at Shego.
Shego and Drakken led themselves off the stage back into the audience, "What the hell?" Drakken asked her when they got off. "Trust me, it's a long story." Shego muttered.
Scarlet took a seat down at the keyboard bench then pointed at the drummer and soon enough another sugary song began. One that was familiar to both Drakken and Shego's ears. In a matter of seconds a gap was cleared for dancing. People were clapping, waving and just getting into the music. Drakken and Shego were one of the few people standing out. Shego tapped Drakken and asked him pleasantly if he wanted to dance. Drakken declined her offer, "You remember I can't dance Shego." Drakken said feeling stupid. Shego started to pull him onto the floor anyway. "Anyone can dance, everyone was born with the ability." Shego said wrapping her arms tightly around his neck. "This night couldn't get any better." Shego's eyes were starry as Drakken and Shego moved slowly around in circles. Drakken wasn't the best dancer but he forgot his embarrassing situation because Shego had just placed her head directly on his shoulder.
Scarlet's powerful and gorgeous voice flowed out like the brook and her fingers ran along the keys gracefully.
"I cannot help it, this feelings taking over me I'm going blind, and I want you there to help me see I don't want to be empty anymore I'm going to open up my door."
Shego whispered softly into Drakken's ear. "I recognize this song." Drakken agreed softly as he concentrated on where his feet were going. "It's my favorite." Drakken grinned a toothy grin and said, "Mine too."
"I'm coming back to you now Because my heart made a vow To be with you, always Not just an hour but every day"
'This couldn't get any better. I'm dancing with the prettiest girl in the world, while seeing one of my favorite artists perform. This has got to be the best night of my entire life. Or maybe I just haven't lived till now.' Drakken thought, as he spun Shego around again. 'Maybe this is just the beginning.'
"So who DID you hire to replace me?" Shego asked inquiringly, Drakken drew her in closer, so their bodies were pressed tightly against one another's. "Shego, I never replaced you." Shego paused then whispered, "Really?" "Yeah, I was hoping you might reconsider and join back. . ." Drakken's voice trailed off, knowing that she wasn't interested. But Shego did not cease to surprise him again. Shego's smile widened a bit and she replied, "Love to."
"Can you reminisce? To that day we kissed? It never really meant too much But now I yearn that same gentle touch. . ."
The blonde singer had finally spotted Shego and Drakken in the crown, and she was thrilled to see them dancing so closely. Everything was turning out so wonderful now. It was a great sensation to know that she had contributed. The singer played the melody softly as she completed her song. She knew this ending had to be amazing.
"If I owned the planet Earth I'd give it up for all its worth If I could just look deep in your eyes I'd be the ultimate prize"
Scarlet stretched her chest-voice to reach the note "prize" perfectly. Scarlet held the note out just a little longer to make it more dramatic. Finally she finished, breathing deeply, and bowed as her fans cheered her on. Scarlet noticed that Drakken and Shego didn't back away from each other until moments after the song had ended. Scarlet-Rose giggled softly, "Mission accomplished." She whispered as she prepared for her next song. She shouted into the microphone over the cheering, "I'd like to thank Kim Possible for the last song request!"
Shego felt tears hiding behind her eyes, Kim was really behind the whole charade; and she did it even though they were arch-rivals. In all honesty, Shego thought Kim one of the most brilliant and magnificent people she had ever met; but there was one who surpassed Drakken's greatness. She gazed at Drakken who was clapping wildly for Scarlet-Rose's performance. Shego clung onto his shirt and dragged him away from the untamed crowd, party, and dancing. She wanted to watch the sunset. She wanted to watch the sunset with him.
(Notes: I also wanted to say the lyrics to Scarlet's song are copyright, to me. I wrote them myself especially for this fan fiction, so feel free to leave me some comments on my lyrics too!)
