Kim ran, launched into a couple of forward flips and rolled out from behind
the bleachers coming to a stop under the refreshment table. She had
narrowly dodged the sensor, but Ron and Rufus weren't so lucky!
Caught in the glow of the beam, Ron and Rufus let out squeaky yelps! The blue light disappeared as the laser prepared to fire....
"Get to that panel Rufus! I'll distract it!" and Ron quickly removed Rufus from his pocket, wound up and sent him sliding along the slick floor of the gym, sending him away from the lasers aim. Without hesitation, he turned on his heels and ran in the opposite direction, barely escaping as the red beam of the laser fired, blasting away the portion of the bleachers they had been crouched behind.
Rufus skidded to a stop and began to run towards the back of the robot at full speed, hoping to find some sort of entry into it's inner circuits. The robot though, with it's advanced audio detection capabilities, heard the soft click of the mole rat's nails on the gym floor and began to swivel on it's base, looking for the source of the sound.
Ron saw this and knew he had to do something! With all the courage he could muster, he jumped out from behind the last section of bleachers. "HEY! EVIL ROBOT!"
And the robot swiveled away from Rufus and towards Ron. "Yeah! I'm talking to you! So you're supposed to be the latest break through in computer technology, huh?"
Kim gasped as she peered out from underneath the tablecloth. What was he doing?! Was he crazy?!
"Please!" Ron taunted. "More like R2D2 with major anger management issues!"
Rufus used the distraction as the opportunity to run up on the robot from behind. With a few glances he spotted a removable hatch near it's base, swung the door open and climbed inside. He began to claw his way upwards through tangles of wires and circuit boards.
The robot's visual scanner rapidly took in Ron. Inside the mind of the robot, the computer analyzed the figure's height, weight and general physical appearance and compared it to it's primary target....Kim Possible....no match, therefore it's presence was unimportant, not worth the energy to negate. It extended it's arm and grasped Ron by the collar of his tux, lifting him into the air.
"Oh this is so not good," muttered Ron.
Kim leapt out from under the table, trying to think quickly. What could she do?!
Rufus progressed quickly and found his target, a bright, sparkling and enormous microchip! "Ah ha!" he squeaked. He raised a foot and kicked the robot's metal frame sending the panel Wade had described flying open.
"Did I say R2D2? Haha! How silly of me! I meant uhhh....,"Ron said dangling from the pincer of the robot. "uhhhh....."Just then, he spotted Rufus perched on the top of the robot's domed head, waving his little arms frantically. The panel was open! "KP!!!" Ron yelled, "NOW!!!"
Kim heard Ron's cry and spotted the fire alarm that would trigger the sprinklers. It was across the gym and her path was blocked by piles of rubble created from the robot's messy entrance. Looking up she saw the climbing ropes used during gym class wrapped around storage hooks, with only a few feet dangling from the ceiling.
"AHHHHHHH!!!" Ron screamed as the robot tossed him to a far corner of the gym. His head collided with the wall and he fell to the floor unconscious.
"Ron!" Kim yelled. But there was no time to lose because the robot turned to her, recognizing the tone of her voice and prepared to fire it's laser once more.
She moved quickly. She dodged the Robot's first blast as she ducked and rolled back over to the bleachers. Springing up quickly, the second blast missed her as she climbed to the top of the bleachers at top speed, her eyes focused on the rim of a nearby basketball net...
Back in Drakken's control station, both he and Shego were on the edge of their seat.
"This is it!!! Finally Kim Possible is seconds away from her doom!! I told ya so! I told ya so!" Drakken was overly pleased with himself and blew a raspberry at Shego.
Shego was too preoccupied with the screen in front of her to retaliate. "I'll make you pay for that after I finish enjoying this."
Back in the gym, Kim catapulted herself from the top of the bleachers towards the hoop barely missing yet another laser blast that tore a hole through the thick gym wall. Her hands reached and grasped the rim and, without a moment's hesitation, she swung her legs forward and let go of the metal hoop projecting herself towards the ceiling. The entire backboard exploded only a fraction of a second later. As she flew upwards Kim grabbed a hold of the end of a rope and began to swing straight towards the robot...
Rufus was jumping up and down on top of the Robot's head squeaking urgently as he saw Kim's approach.
She swung directly overtop of the robot, narrowly avoiding a collision and scooped up Rufus into her free arm. The robot was still attempting to catch up with her when she let go of the rope and began to drop down on the other side of the rubble, directly in front of the alarm. Within her last few seconds of air time, Kim grasped the handle and pulled down, setting off the sprinklers before she even hit the ground.
Water immediately began streaming from the ceiling and flowing into the open hatch on top of the dome. Sparks flew from every direction and the robot lost control of all functioning, it's head and arm's flailing wildly out of control. Kim ducked, covering both herself and Rufus with her arms, protecting them from flying debris. Within seconds, there was one last final explosion as the robot erupted into a ball of electricity and then...silence...
When Kim finally opened her eyes, the robot sat motionless, black smoke streaming from the open hatch. But Kim couldn't enjoy her victory just yet. "Ron!" she yelled and ran towards him, hoping for the best.
Meanwhile in Drakken's control room....
"What? What happened?" Drakken stared miserably at the screen which displayed nothing but static. "Everything was going so well?! What could have possibly gone wrong?!"
Shego let out a tired sigh. She knew that everything had been going too good to be true. "Back to the drawing board, huh Drakken?"
Drakken caught the hint of smugness in her tone. "Shut up," he said angrily, yet quietly because once again Shego had been right and he had been wrong....
"What was that you were saying earilier? 'I told you so?' Was that it Drakken?"
Drakken cringed. "Shut up! Shut up, shut up, SHUT UP!"
"There, there," said Shego as she sarcastically patted him on the head, "I think someone's grumpy and needs a nap."
And with that Drakken launched himself into full-scale temper tantrum, throwing himself to the floor and beating it with his fists. "It's not fair!!!"
In the gym, Kim was running full speed to Ron's side. As she approached him, he pulled himself from the floor with some difficulty and began to rub his hand against the back of his head. "Ow!"
Kim kneeled beside him, drenched from the water still falling all around them. "Ron! Are you ok?"
He was still slightly dazed but overall he was ok. "Yeah, but I learned my lesson. Never tease a giant killer robot."
Kim was overwhelmed with relief! Without thinking she grabbed onto the lapels of Ron's tux jacket and pulled him to her, firmly pressing her lips to his. Ron was at first shocked and could only react with a startled yelp, but he quickly realized just how absolutely fantastic his situation was and relaxed, letting her kiss him senseless.
BEEP BEEP BE-BEEP!!!
But the two paid no mind, leaving Rufus to pull the Kimmunicator from Kim's pocket unnoticed. "Hello?" he squeaked at Wade.
"Rufus?! What happened?! Did everything work out ok?" Wade was confused to see Rufus answering the Kimmunicator.
Rufus gave him an ok sign with his fingers. "Uh huh! Uh huh!"
"Well....where's Kim and Ron?"
Rufus pointed the Kimmunicator towards Kim and Ron, now completely preoccupied in the kiss they were sharing.
Wade jumped, surprised. Then he gave a knowing, "Oooohhh, I see. Guess I better catch them at a better time..."and he signed off quickly.
Outside the gym, in the Middletown High parking lot, the prom crowd was milling around confused. Everyone was completely bummed at the prom being ruined, but they all anxiously awaited the emergence of Kim and Ron from the auditorium, wondering if they were able to handle the disruption.
"Hey! There they are!" someone shouted, and everyone ran to see Kim and Ron exiting the gym looking strangely calm...
As the crowd gathered around them someone shouted out, "What happened?"
Kim smiled victoriously, "It's all clear! ... Well the gym might need a little fixing up...but other than that..."
And the crowd erupted into cheers and applause! Rufus who was perched in Ron's pocket gave a little bow. "Thank you!"
Close by, Bonnie wrapped her arms across her chest, annoyed at all the attention Kim was getting. "I hope that dress isn't dry clean only, Kimmie!" she called, noting the water dripping from Kim and Ron. Kim didn't even hear her amongst the roar of the crowd.
Next to her Josh started to make his way towards Kim. Bonnie grabbed his arm. "Just what do you think you're doing?!"
"Catch ya later Bonnie. Got some business to attend to..." and he shook her off.
Bonnie growled angrily.
When the crowd started to die down and head their separate ways, Ron turned to Kim. "So I've been thinking, we should really celebrate with something special. What do ya say? Nice restaurant, good food, my treat?"
"Bueno nacho it is," smiled Kim reading his mind. They interlocked arms and were about to leave when...
"Kim!"
Kim turned around, startled. Then she gasped, "Josh?"
Ron grew nervous as he approached Kim. Oh come on! The good looking jocks can't get everything can they?!
"Listen Kim. I made a horrible mistake," sighed Josh dejectedly.
Ron's shoulders slumped. It was nice while it lasted....
"I definitely came to the prom with the wrong person..."complained Mankey.
"Really? "and Kim caught sight of Ron next to her looking obviously defeated. She could barely restrain a laugh. Oh Ron, you should know better.... "Because I came with just the right one."
Ron's face lit up as Kim smiled at him sweetly. Rufus blew a raspberry at Josh from Ron's pocket.
Josh was completely speechless as the couple turned, hand in hand, and began to walk away.
Ron tried to contain his happiness but he just couldn't help himself. He peered back over his shoulder and called out to Josh in a triumphant voice, "BOOYA!"
THE END
So what do ya think of the ending? Thanks for all the help and encouragement along the way guys! Oh, and sorry to all Josh Mankey fans. =) I know it's wrong, but I just can't get over the good-looking jock = jerk stereotype. Hey, it makes for a story.
