Hello boys and girls those were great reviews. Maybe I should make Ron betray Kim more often. I guess I'll answer some reviews now. Puppydog1266, sadly Rufus died in the first chapter with the rest of Ron's family. The Spiritual Fishy Martyr, I'm glad my story made you cry, wait that doesn't sound right, I'm glad you like my story. That's much better. Anyway, about now I should get to the story so here it is.

Chapter 11: Silver, We Knew Him Well

"I still can't believe Ron did that. He tricked me into beating Drakken for him, just so he and Shego could get out of their contract. Then to top it off he just disappears, there hasn't been any sign of him in three months." Kim shouted as she paced back and forth across her room. "He deserves whatever he gets…and I'm going to give it to him."

"That's what I've been saying since the beginning," Monique said happy to see her friend coming around.

"I thought he was my friend," Kim said getting a bit choked up. "Maybe he isn't, maybe you've been right all along."

"Kim are you ok?" Monique asked noticing the tears building up in her friend's eyes.

"I hate him…" Kim said as she sat down next to Monique and started to cry.

"Its okay Kim," Monique said as she tried to reassure her.

That's when Kim's Kimmunicator went off. "What's the sitch Wade," Kim asked wiping the tears off her face.

"Did I call at a bad time?" Wade asked.

"Just tell me what's happening!" Kim yelled not really wanting to talk about it.

"Ok its Ron he…" Wade began but Kim cut him off.

"How fast can I get there?" Kim asked her face becoming stone serious.

"I'm sending a plane to your house right now."

"Thanks," Kim said turning off the Kimmunicator.

"That's the sprit," Monique said as Kim went to get changed for the mission.

"Here," Kim said passing Monique an extra set of mission clothes.

"What are these for?" Monique asked.

"You're coming with me."

The entire time Kim and Monique were in the plane Monique was nervous. Partly because she had no idea what she was doing but mostly because Kim didn't say a word until the plane landed. "Let's go."

"I don't think I should be here," Monique said as she and Kim walked into the science lab.

"You're the one that says I should beat Ron. I thought you'd want to watch it." Kim said as she greeted the owner of the lab.

"Thank god you're here. We got word from a guy called Dakin…Draben. Something like that. He said that Silver and Shego would strike here next." He said in a bit of a panicked voice.

"What do you think they want?" Kim asked.

"Follow me," the man said as he led Kim and Monique down a hall. The hall was dark and went down into the basement of the lab along it ran a long stone shelf with photos and past projects on it. "This is it," he said as they entered a room with a large generator in it. A diamond rested in a box with lasers running from it light reflecting off the diamond and bouncing around in the box.

"What is it?" Monique asked.

"A generator powered by that the most perfect diamond ever."

"Wouldn't it be easier just to get electricity?"

"That isn't the point. The point is that they want it and you guys are going to guard it for me."

"Deal." Kim said.

A few hours later Ron slowly walked down the hall. He had healed up quite well during the three-month break from crime, although he was still somewhat cautious about his ribs. The only reason he had even come here was for the cash that he could get from selling the diamond. He used the specialized sensors on his glasses to avoid the detection beams that crisscrossed the hall. If he ever saw Drakken again he would have to remember to thank him. These glasses were much better than his old mask ever was. He entered the room that had the generator in it. He looked around for anything that might be an alarm, he didn't see anything. 'They must have figured no one would get this far undetected.' He stepped up to the pedestal that the diamond was on, smashed the glass and took the diamond.

"Easy money." He laughed and turned to leave. That's when the lights came on, temporarily disorientating him.

"Not so fast." Kim said as she and Monique stepped out.

"Monique glad to see you." Ron said as he placed the diamond into a pouch on his belt. "Finally got around to replacing me, huh Kim?"

"Let's do this." Kim said taking an attack pose.

"Thought you couldn't fight me?" Ron said as he took an attack pose as well.

"I'm not going to hold back because you used to be my friend."

"You didn't hold back when you didn't know I was Silver." Ron said. But Kim didn't even answer she just attacked.

Ron and Kim began to exchange blows as Monique watched. Kim wasn't holding back, she attacked Ron with the same ferocity that she used to use against Shego. Monique's interest in the fight was distracted. She heard something…beeping? It took a few seconds for her to track down the source of the beeps, it was the generator. It had some sort of countdown timer on it. It went down to 0:08 before she realized just what it was.

"Ah guys." Monique said.

0:07

"Busy." Kim said as she blocked one of Ron's punches.

"Yeah but guys." Monique tried again.

0:06

"Busy here Monique." Ron said blocking a kick.

"There's a bomb!" Monique shouted, she now had their undivided attention.

0:05

"WHAT!" Kim and Ron both shouted as they ran up to Monique.

0:04

"It must have activated when I took the diamond," Ron said as he and Kim ran and ducked behind the wall on the other side of the door.

"Where's Monique?" Kim shouted.

0:03

Monique was still back in the room. Fear kept her from moving, she was going to die. She didn't want to die; she knew she had to run. Her legs weren't listening to her brain, she couldn't move.

0:02

Ron did something that would change his life forever. He may have been a villain now, but he still wasn't going to let Monique die. He had lost too many people close to him already. He scrambled into the room and grabbed Monique by her arm. He pulled her toward the door, she wasn't moving fast enough. They were both going to die, unless he did something. He stepped between her body and the generator and pushed her as hard as he could. Monique fell through the doorway and Kim grabbed her pulling her behind the thick wall.

0:01

Ron knew he wasn't going to make it out. He began to crouch down, hoping that the explosion wasn't going to be too big.

0:00

BOOM!

He was wrong. The split second of calm air in the room almost convinced him that the bomb had been nothing but an elaborate trick, after all no one would put a bomb that big in the middle of a research facility. Then the shockwave hit him, hard. The force of the explosion slammed into his body and propelled him across the floor. He collided with the poured concrete walls of the small room. His body hit with a sickening crunch, his skull ricocheting off the wall. When the flames came he couldn't do anything to protect himself from them. His suit was supposed to be fireproof, hopefully it would be enough.

Outside the room, Kim could only sit helpless as the bomb did what it did. She never wanted it to be like this. Ron didn't deserve this, no matter what he had done.

Once the explosion was over Kim turned on her seat and looked into the room. The dust was still hanging thick in the air, but she had to find Ron. She began to crawl on her hands and knees searching for him. "RON!" Kim shouted as she felt for him, "Ron can you hear me? Are you ok?" Her hand found something soft in the midst of the rubble, it was Ron. She could see that he had not fared well. His suit was smoldering and his skin…She began to cry, he wasn't ever going to be the same freckle faced boy she knew. At least most of his hair was still on his head. There was blood, so much blood. His eyes were glassy, but they were open.

"Kim." His voice was so weak that Kim barely heard it through the ringing in her ears.

"Ron! Ron you're going to be okay." Kim turned to Monique. "Call an ambulance!"

Monique didn't move, she was still in shock at what had happened.

"GO!" Kim shouted. Monique snapped out of her daze and ran back up the hall. Kim took Ron's hand in hers; she had to keep him talking. To keep him alive. "Monique's going to get help. Hang on Ron; you're going to be ok. "

"Kim…Kim I need you to help Shego." His voice was getting even weaker, Kim could barely hear him.

"Help her with what?" Kim asked.

"…my kid…" His eyes rolled back in their sockets and his body went limp.

"Ron? Ron?! Don't do this…stay with me." Kim pulled him into her lap and tried to check for a pulse.

Monique stepped into the room, "They have an emergency crew on the way." She could see that Kim wasn't listening to her. "Is he…"

"No, he still has a pulse," Kim said as she began to rock him gently, her tears coming in full. "You have to live, you just have to."
