A/N: I had to write this chapter in WordPad, so if it uploads weird, it's not my fault. BTW, Sam Perfect, another despyrit character, is in this chapter. You'll meet her later.
The Passing Torch Ch. 2: Who's the Leader? (Syd's POV)
by nachonaco
It was hard on all of us. 'Who would help us save the world?' I questioned myself. The funeral was that day, and I was nervous. But I shouldn't be complaining about how I feel right now. Not with Scott in the state that he's in...I feel so bad for him...I thought back to the events that changed his life a few days ago....
**************
We were in Dementor's lair. Thanks to Wade and Kristy, we were able to find out where he was...that was the easy part. I had the task of "distraction", which I gladly accepted. That was the easy part, or so I thought. I ran over to a shadowed corner, and hid there. "So, Kim Possible believes she can defeat my plan!" Dementor exclaimed. "Dang straight," I muttered from my hiding spot. "And this is your defense? Nothing?" 'Worst. Line. Ever.' I mentally retaliated. Scott, Ron and Des stood, determined, by Kim. "We're not letting you win." Des spat.
Still hiding in the shadows, I angrily activated my flame hands. I was angry...I couldn't shake the feeling that Dementor had won. My instincts were right...he had activated the lasers. Kim, Des and Ron managed to find me. "Is everyone all right?" I will never forget what I saw next. "Is everyone all right?" I repeated. Then, Dementor had aimed the laser at Kim, hitting her square in the back. She screamed. "KIM!" Scott screamed. "My God..." I whispered. And that was that.
**************
I sat in the pew the next Friday, wondering why in the world someone would kill a sixteen year old girl and get so much joy out of it. I was infuriated. When it was my turn to speak, I nearly choked. I began to speak: "Kimberly Anne Possible was a great friend. From the time I was ten to the present, she was my best friend. Kim was someone you could count on. She would help you whether you had to save the world, or just doing homework. She was by my side every step of the way..." I broke off, and took my seat.
Scott was next to me, and he was the last to speak. "Kim was a great girlfriend...I remember once when she went to France...she came back with a solid gold watch, engraved with the words 'An Eternal Bond, Never Wavering' on it." I could tell he was going to cry. Des got up and helped him to his seat. After the funeral, we went to Bueno Nacho, trying to cheer Scott up. A few minutes later, Scott went to the bathroom, leaving me, Des, Ron, Kristy, and Sam. "Syd?" Kristy inquired.
"Yeah?" I responded after taking a drink of soda.
"Are we going to keep saving the world?"
"I...guess. It'll be hard, and I can't guarantee how safe or dangerous it will be, but we'll continue."
"You're sure?"
"...Yes. One hundred percent. Now, who agrees?"
"I do."
"Me."
"Count me in."
We were going to fight back.
