Yay! The next part of the story is out! Also, in part of the story, Drakkin is written out of character - please no flames because of that! I also want to change the title of the story. Any suggestions?
alan is my friend(): Thanks for reviewing. You know, the thought of Shego actually being Quin never crossed my mind. That's a good idea for a future fic!
khd(): I'm glad you thought my story was interseting and good.
Cynthia Krenshaw: Thanks for the review. Here's the next part for ya!
Aeetos: Thanks for the review. You know, I thought about Ron not wanting Kim to go on a mission alone, but it has happened in one of the episodes. Besides, I had to have some way to move the story. hehe.
chris-warren876: Here's your update!
japanesejewel: Here's your quick update! Hehe. You like just reviewed this!
Here you all go. Sorry it's kinda short!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kim awoke sometime later to see people standing above her. Kim had to blink the fuzziness in her eyes away and, as her vision cleared, saw that Ron, her parents and the tweebs - Kim's twin brothers, Jim and Tim - were the ones standing by her bedside. She looked around and saw that she was in the hospital.
"Was my injury that bad?" Kim asked groggily. She wasn't sure if it was from some medication or the gash in her side - or both.
"We weren't sure. That's why we brought you here." Kim's dad replied, obviously worried about his daughter.
"How are you feeling Kim?" Ron asked.
"Much better than I would have if you hadn't showed up." Kim remarked.
"We wouldn't have gotten away if it wasn't for Quin though." Ron replied.
"Ron, what are you talking about? She was helping Doctor Drakkin and Shego." Kim said.
"Uh, KP, I kind of figured that one out. But when you passed out or were close or whatever, and Shego had us pinned up against the wall, Quin kicked Shego in the back of the leg. That's how we got out." Ron said to her.
"Really? Or are you making this up?" Kim asked a little more coldly then she intended to. Then, realizing that it didn't sound like her, said: "I'm sorry Ron. I didn't mean for it to come out like that. The medication's getting to me."
"It's okay Kim. It's making you loopy. I'm down with that." Ron reassured her, but Kim could tell that she had hurt his feelings.
Kim looked up at her father. "So how bad is that gash in my side?" she asked.
Kim's father looked at her. "He said that it somehow got infected - like there was something dirty on Shego's hands and you had a lot of blood loss. But, beside some cleaning out, it only needed stitches. Within a week or so, you should be about as good as new."
"A week?!" Kim exclaimed. "I can't wait that long!" When Kim tried to sit up, the room started to spin.
"Kimmie, lay back down." her mother ordered her as she gently pushed Kim down.
"A week?" Kim repeated. "What if Wade finds a lead on Drakkin?"
"I don't know." Mr. Possible replied. "But you're not going anywhere."
"I could go for you, Kim." Ron suggested.
"Uh, that's okay Ron." Kim said, not really wanting Ron to go off on a mission by himself.
Ron sat down on the side of her bed. "Hey, KP."
"Yeah?" Kim asked.
"Where's the Kimmunicator?" Ron asked.
Kim thought for a moment. "Uh . . . oh. Shego kicked it out of my hands when I tried to answer it. It's still in Drakkin's lair. Why?"
"Wade wanted to talk to you." Ron replied.
"Oh." Kim said. "Did he say what he wanted to talk to me about?"
Ron shook his head. "No. You'd better call him when you're feeling up to it."
"Kimmie, why don't you get some sleep? You've had a rough night." Kim's mother told her.
Kim yawned. "Yeah. I guess I'd better."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(A\N: This is where Drakkin was sort of written out of character. Plz no flames!)
Quin knew Drakkin was very mad at her and Shego was even madder. She sat in a chair watching Shego play with those same nails that had cut Kim's flesh.
Quin shuddered at that thought.
Drakkin was in his "office" and he hadn't sent for Quin or even Shego since Kim and Ron got away hours ago. Quin hoped that he wasn't too mad with her, but in her mind knew that he was. And Quin knew the reason why.
She had betrayed them.
Quin never thought she'd actually betray Drakkin and Shego, the first - and for a while only - ones that had seemed to care for her.
That is until she met Ron and Kim.
Quin put her head in her hands. She not only betrayed Drakkin and Shego, but Kim and Ron as well. Quin helped Shego fight Kim. She helped hold Kim when Kim was captured. She helped kick the crates on top of Ron and Kim. It was her fault that Kim got hurt.
Then Quin thought about the "other half" of the situation. Quin had hesitated in helping Shego fight Kim. She didn't make a move to capture Ron when Drakkin told her to. She could have injured Shego when she kicked her in the back of the knee and let the enemy escape.
She betrayed everyone that had ever cared for her.
But then again, why did the people that she care for have to be opposing forces? Why couldn't Kim and Ron and Drakkin and Shego not hate each other? Who was Quin going to have to give up loyalty to? Obviously she couldn't be loyal to both sides.
Quin sighed deeply. \\Where do my loyalties lie? With Drakkin and Shego or Ron and Kim? Who cares more for me? Who is the better choice? Who am I going to have to give up loyalty on? Who am I supposed to trust that they have my best interests in mind?//
These questions swirled around her head. Why did life have to be so complicated?! Why couldn't there be easy choices and the right paths were easy to find?
\\Why am I being faced with this? Haven't I already had enough to deal with?//
Quin wanted to talk with someone - anyone! But she couldn't. Not with Shego, nor Drakkin, nor Kim, nor Ron. Nobody! Nobody would want to hear what a coward had to say!
Quin turned to Shego when she felt Shego's eyes burning at her back. When she met those dark eyes of Shego's, all Quin saw there was disappointment and anger.
Quin wondered if this was how Ron was feeling about her right now.
Quin turned away, unable to face the conviction in Shego's eyes. She turned to the mirror on the wall that was next to the chair that she was sitting on.
But instead of seeing the reflection that she wanted, all Quin saw was the sniveling coward she had become.
Quin turned abruptly when Drakkin walked out of his office. He walked over to Shego and talked quietly to her, not once looking at Quin. Quin stood in her spot motionless until Drakkin finished.
"Quin, come here." Drakkin commanded, his back facing her. Quin obeyed and she slowly walked to him, not sure of what was to come.
"Y - yes?" Quin asked, timidly as she walked over to him. Drakkin and Shego were the only two people in the world that could intimidate Quin.
Drakkin turned to face her and slapped her across the face. Quin, surprised at what he just did, stumbled back. It wasn't like Doctor Drakkin to do something like that.
She looked at him, then her gaze fell. She felt so ashamed and knew that it showed on her face.
"I'm sorry." Quin mumbled.
"You should be more than sorry." Drakkin said. "Not only did you almost injure Shego, but you let my arch nemeses get away when I had her in my clutches."
"I'm really, really sorry!" Quin exclaimed.
Shego looked up from playing with her nails. "See, Dr. D., I told you it wouldn't work."
Quin spun around. "What wouldn't work?" She turned back to Dr. Drakkin. "What's she talking about?"
"Did you think I would actually send you to the high school for knowledge?" Drakkin asked.
"Then why did you send me?" Quin asked, not sure if she wanted to hear the answer.
"To make friends with Kim Possible and the buffoon." Dr. Drakkin answered.
"And you did this . . . why?" Quin asked, not understanding. "Why would you want me to become friends with your arch foe?"
"Well, I wanted you to find out secrets about her that would help me." Drakkin replied, looking proud of himself.
"Yeah, but stealing that MiniMizer thingy wasn't a great idea. I told you Kim Possible would come looking for it and find out about Quin!" Shego said in her normal, emotionless voice.
"Arg . . . Shego! Who's telling Quin about the plan?" Drakkin snarled.
Shego shrugged. "Fine. You can tell her about the plan that failed. If we had done it my way . . "
"I am the supervillain here! You are only the sidekick!" Drakkin said, his blue face starting to flush.
"So you set me up to become friends with Kim just to find out about some secrets?!" Quin asked, not believing her ears. "Did you ever consider how I might feel about it?! Did it ever once occur to you that I wouldn't be able to fight her?!" She paused to take a couple of deep breaths before she finished. "That was so . . . so . . . unfair to me!! Did you even think this thing through?! You should have at least told me about your stupid plan!!"
Now Quin didn't feel so much like a traitor anymore.
Dr. Drakkin looked at her shocked that she had raised her voice to him. Quin had never raised her voice like that before.
Quin gave an angry sigh. "I'm going to my room! Don't bother me!" she said as she stormed out of the room that Drakkin and Shego were in.
As Quin stormed from the room, Shego started filing her nails and didn't look up at Drakkin when she said: "I told you we should have told her."
"Shego, you know how much I hate 'I-told-you-so's." Drakkin growled.
Shego shrugged and continued filing her nails. "So what are we going to do now, Dr. D.?"
Drakkin paced the room, trying to think of some evil scheme, but he couldn't think of one.
"I'll figure one out tomorrow. I'm too tired to do it now." Drakkin responded.
Shego put the emery board away and walked toward the doorway. "I'm going to my room and get some sleep." she told Drakkin.
Drakkin didn't acknowledge her as she walked down the hall. When she passed Quin's room, she heard something strange.
"Quin? What are you doing in there? You'd better knock it off whatever it is so I can sleep!" Shego called through the door, but the noise continued.
"Quin! Knock it off!" Shego yelled but still the noise continued. "Quin!!" Shego yelled as she forced the door open. She barged into Quin's room and didn't see anybody there. Shego heard the sound again and looked in the direction it came - toward the window. Shego saw an open shutter hitting the side of the building as the wind blew it around.
Shego leaned over the window sill and saw some sheets tied together, leading to the ground.
Quin had run away.

Thanks to everyone who gave me reviews and everyone that has read this that hasn't given me reviews. "Where did Quin go?" "What scheme is Drakkin going to cook up next?" Well, the answer to the second question I'm not sure of myself!
