Run, hide;
All that was sacred to us;
Sacred to us;
See the signs;
The covenant has been broken;
By mankind;
Leaving us with no shoulder,
with no shoulder;
To rest our head on;
To rest our head on;
To rest our head on
"Who's Got My Back"- Creed
Veeken sat down on the park bench, lost and confused. Hugging her legs close to her, she pondered what to do, or who to go to for advice. Ratigan? Normally, she'd go to him for advice, but, seeing as how the problem involved him, it might not work. Kim's dad? Possible, but subject to spectacularly odd advice.
"Veek?"
Ron? Well, that was a maybe, but-. "Ron?!", Veeken exclaimed. "What're you doing here?"
"Well, I came to chat with Mrs. P, y'know, to see if Kim was home, and she told me you were here earlier, but you kinda, um, split. What happened?"
"Well, Mrs. Possible said something that was a little… unnerving, and I kinda need some advice on what to do. I'd rather not go into details."
"Well, have you considered talking to Kim's dad?"
Veeken rolled her eyes. "The answer to that is pretty obvious."
Ron sat back on the bench in thought. "Who to go to for advice?", he thought. "Mr. Possible? Nope. Dad? Maybe. Nah, it'd have to be someone with years of experience. But who…"
"Oh, I know!" he exclaimed out loud.
"What?"
"Well, you remember when I got to go to that school in Japan?"
"How can I forget?", Veeken replied. "I can still see the look on Kim and Monique's faces when they found out Hirotaka was going out with Bonnie."
"Well, it turns out the school I went to was a secret ninja school, and the sensei there might be able to help you with your problem. The thing is, I'm supposed to keep my stay here a secret, so you'll have to swear to secrecy."
"Why?", Veeken asked innocently. As if she didn't know.
"Well, you'd want some secrecy if everyone wanted you to teach them how to kick butt for free, wouldn't you?"
"Good point. Well, what're we waiting for?"
And that was how she ended up on a plane bound for Japan…
