You'll like this chapter, it may be a bit freaky and sad though. A villain tries to hit on Rose (scaring her really) and another villain is offended by a comment that Rose says so the other would back of. Take a guess on who the villains might be first, then read this chapter to find out if you're correct
Chapter 18: Offended Trouble
About ten hours later, breakfast was being served in the hotel restaurant downstairs. Everyone was downstairs except for one that forgot the set her alarm clock.
Those that were eating looked up just to see Rose walk in. Her cherry-red hair was curly yet limp and rested at her shoulders as did her bangs that pointed around her forehead. She still seemed overheated as her cheeks were pink and her eyes were a bit hazy.
This time, she wore a purple spaghetti strap top with a white bow sewed right where the V-neck stopped and a small amount of cleavage would've shown, blue jean shorts that stopped at mid-thigh, and brown sandals.
"Morning, I forgot to set my alarm clock last night." Rose said, half embarrassed. She sat down and grabbed a banana, about to peel and eat it when the silence disturbed her. "Someone talk, please."
"Did anyone sleep well last night?" DNAmy asked casually.
"Yes." Nearly everyone replied.
"Without the distraction of the computers in the suites?" Shego added, laughing. "Those are a waste of time, you know."
Everyone glared at Shego except for DNAmy.
"And no one would really care about your computer free life either, Shego." Rose said, controlling her temper. "Okay, so I was on for an hour, that doesn't mean I don't have a life! I've lived childhood for 9 years, Pokemon training for 4 years, Pokemon Mastery for 4 years, and a steady relationship for 2 years within 3 years of college!"
"Well sorry if I offended you, Princess!"
"Oh no, you're not calling me that!" Rose warned darkly. "I'm the wrong girl for that kind of nickname."
"Then is there a special name you have picked out?" Shego asked, smirking evilly.
Rose had a look to kill, which didn't scare anyone except for Señor Senior Junior. Her hazy pink face covered the fire engine red embarrassment, she stormed off. Muttering something about the swimming pool to cool off.
"Does the lassie always have that kind of temper?" Killigan asked, after breakfast was finally over.
"Not all the time," Shego resumed to finish filing her nails. "She's really a good kid."
"So you say she's older than she looks?" Monkey Fist questioned, slightly interested. "I for once thought the girl had to be at least Kim Possible's age."
"What the hell are you suspecting?" Shego raised her eyebrow, very suspicious and yet somewhat worried.
"Oh, nothing really-" but then Monkey Fist was interrupted by a high-pitched scream from outside.
"Who forgot to tell Rose that Gill had already claimed the pool area?" Shego asked, her eyes narrowed annoyedly.
"Wasn't that you?" DNAmy asked. "We were the first two down here this morning, and we saw Gill arrive."
"All right, fine. I guess it-Hey! Wait for me!" Shego yelled to the others that were leaving, she and DNAmy followed.
Outside the hotel, the courtyard swimming pool, with an outdoor hot tub, had a tropical theme of palm trees and lounging chairs, and a gazebo. There was a building with an indoor pool and hot-tub section.
Near the swimming pool, Rose had already changed from her clothes to a dark purple bikini that complimented her young figure. She was backing away from a creature, which looked like a combination of a fish and a man, complete with red eyes, scales and a huge muscular body.
"Keep away from me, or I'll sent out my Pokemon." Rose warned, frightened of the creature.
"Come now, you're such a pretty little mermaid." The fish-mutant chuckled evilly. "How bout a kiss and I'll leave you alone?"
"No! I'll never kiss a mutant-freak like you!" Rose screamed, she was cornered and the creature was advancing closer.
"You don't know when to back off, do you Gill?" came the snide voice of Shego.
Rose was relieved that someone came to the rescue. She came outside half an hour ago just to swim, but Gill scared her half to death and chased her around the courtyard pool, convincing that he'd stop if she went out on a date with him. Though there were others outside, Señor Senior Senior was napping in a lounge chair and Señor Senior Junior was also lounging on a blown-up chair in the pool.
Gill sneered, irritated that his little game with the pretty girl was over. "I was just-"
Rose interrupted him, crying out. "He lies! And I'm shivering wet to the point it's not funny!"
Señor Senior Senior was disturbed from his nap, he grumbled and turned to the empty chair with only a towel. He picked up the towel and threw it where Rose was crouched in the corner and Gill blocking her.
Rose reached out her hand for the towel, but Gill grabbed it and held it high out of her reach.
"Looking for this?" Gill laughed, dangling the black towel with tropical fish and blue dolphins on the front. "I'm sure you want it, 'cause it's pretty like you."
"Your flattery is getting you nowhere!" Rose exclaimed, she saw at the corner on the left side that Drakken and Monkey Fist were creeping up behind Gill. "And at this rate, I don't date mutant-animal freaks!"
These words stopped Monkey Fist right in his tracks, he thought the young woman was very beautiful and started to have feelings for her, maybe even suggesting about courting her. He growled and ran toward Gill, like a wild gorilla on rampage.
Drakken didn't bother now the help out because he was kinda scared, he backed away and stood next to Shego and DNAmy.
Gill knew that something was wrong, he turned a little too late in time. He was kicked hard and flown into the swimming pool. A large wave formed and knocked Señor Senior Junior off his lounging chair and out of the pool completely, flying into other lounging chairs.
Rose stifled a giggle, but it really wasn't funny because Señor Senior Junior was hurt. She grabbed her towel and stood up, about to join the others when she stopped and found her path blocked.
Monkey Fist was staring her down, a mixture between anger and lust (Well, what villain wouldn't stare at a girl in just a bikini?). Mostly by her words toward Gill, but then offend him as well.
"Your words hurt, Miss Machavelli"
"I didn't mean to offend you." Rose said, she lowered her head in shame. "I only said that to Gill so he'd back off."
Monkey Fist placed his hand on Rose's shoulder and squeezed hard. "Watch your choice of words next time."
Rose nodded, she flinched at the pain on her shoulder. "Yes, sir." Then she was free to join the others, but actually made a run back inside the hotel.
