"You're sure you saw it over here?" Ron asked Kim as they walked through the edge of the forest of skinny trees, the ocean and the island's sandy shores to their right, the heart of the tree grove to their left.
His fellow crime fighter stared at the dried-up dirt between the trees as she replied sternly, "I know my Kimmunicator, Ron. Just keep your eyes on the ground."
As he took a step forward, Ron riveted his gaze to the ground in front of him. He was focusing so hard on the task at hand that he didn't notice the skinny root a few inches from his foot. As the sidekick took a step forward to keep up with Kim, he stumbled over the root and fell flat on with his face with a short yelp. From the ground, Ron called in answer to Kim's instruction, "Not a problem."
She didn't bother to give him a scathing remark, as she then spotted the flash of sunlight on metal. "There it is!" cried the red-haired teenage hero, pointing out the square of dark gray amist the light brown sand. Ron pulled himself up, spitting out a mouthful of sand as Kim bounded forward to get the Kimmunicator.
But someone else got there first. Shego dropped from the canopy and grabbed the device, then Drakken stepped out from behind a fern-like plant. "Excellent, Shego! Now let's-" He stopped short at the sight of Kim. "Kim Possible! What's she doing here?!?!?!"
As both his assistant and Kim moved into fighting stances, Shego snarrled, "She's WHY we're stuck here in the first place!"
"That is so not true!" retorted Kim. "You're the one who blew a hole in the plane!" She noticed her opponent was moving off balance, and Kim's green eyes went to the torn-up leg. Her lips curved into a quiet smirk of confidence, knowing she had the advantage.
Shego sprang forward, pushing off on her good leg, and slashed at Kim's head with a glowing hand. The other hand still gripped the Kimmunicator. Kim parried the blow and leapt to the side to deliver a backhand hit. Shego dodged and tried a high rib kick, which Kim avoided. The villainess landed hard on her injured leg, and was forced to drop the Kimmunicator to free up her hands, barely in time to block a rain of hits from her opponent.
As she leapt backwards to avoid being disemboweled by a swipe of Shego's claws, Kim gave Ron a pointed look and jerked her head towards the Kimmunicator. He gave her a thumbs up in recognition, and she began moving backwards still while fighting. As the two sparred, Kim began leading Shego gradually away from the place where the prize was located.
As soon as they were about 5 meters from the Kimmunicator, Ron dashed forward and grabbed it. "Boo-yah! Once again, the Ron-master rules!" he crowed triumphantly.
Drakken yelled, "Give me that....um...." He stopped to try and remember the goofy sidekick's name. "Let me think...oh, what was it again...I know it started with an F..."
"Ron! Ron Stoppable!" Ron answered loudly with frustration. He had good reason to be frustrated when you think about it. I mean, if a pathetic mad scientist can't remember your name, that's kind of degrading.
Drakken snapped his fingers. "Yes, that's it! Anyway, GIVE ME THAT!" He dove on Ron, who sprang back and put Drakken in a headlock. After a brief struggle, the villain threw Ron off and snatched the Kimmunicator. Meanwhile, Shego came at Kim with a fresh onslaught of blows. But this left her defense wide open, so Kim slipped past the long whips of deadly plasma and delivered a spinning kick that sent her foe flying.
The villainess slammed into Drakken, and both of them were flung in opposite directions from the impact. The Kimmunicator flew up into the air, and all 4 pairs of eyes were riveted on the all-important device. They watched as it spiraled up, up over the trees and then over the sand banks on the island's edge. As it began it's descent into the sea, they saw the craggy black tips of a cluster of rocks under the 6-foot deep surf. With a splash, the Kimmunicator sank into the water above the rock coral. The island's human occupants stared blankly at the ocean, the sky now thick with dark grey clouds reflecting their mood. Behind the storm clouds, the sun was setting.
"That's just wonderful," Shego's sarcastic voice finally cut through the silence. "Juuuust great." Kim glared, but before they could square off for another fight, a flash of lightning lit up the sky, followed by a boom of thunder. The clouds split open and drops of rain splashed down onto their faces. Instinctively, the four scrambled for cover in the trees. But the confrontations were far from over.
Author's Note: First, I'd like to say thanks to all those readers who constantly review fan fics. Y'all make us writers feel like someone's really listening to our stories (and give us something to talk about in the Author Notes). Yeah, that's about it. Look for Chapter 4.

Drakken: Ah, my teenaged foe. And the buffoon.
Ron: Well this "buffoon" knows your secret plan: You want to steal Christmas!
Drakken: Not even close.
