Ch. 15 The Truth Hurts
(Oops! I think I forgot to do a disclaimer! That's ok. This one counts twice. And besides, if I owned KP I would have let y'all know by now. LoL! So here it goes: I do NOT own Shego Drakken GoTeam Adrena Lynn Summer Gales Kim Possible Aviarius Ron Stoppable or any other KP characters thank you very much. I feel much better now.)Drakken and Shego went to go pick up the Drakken's parents the next evening. When they got there, Mrs. Lipski was her normal bizarre self but Mr. Lipski was exceptionally quiet. There was an invisible barrier that separated him from the rest of them. A barrier he had created by keeping a secret one that was known by the majority of the group but somehow unreal to them. Shego and Drakken knew very well that it was there but they ignored it. After all villainous memories would interfere with the otherwise happy atmosphere. Finally that night Drakken's dad decided to tell his son something he should have told him a long time ago. It was about nine pm and most everyone had settled down for the night, but Drakken's father was edgy and tense. He had to tell Drakken the most unbelievable thing. Drakken and his father were the only two in the room. That's when the truth had finally decided to come out."Drew," said Drakken's dad abruptly.
"Yes, dad?" Drakken asked tiredly. He wanted to get up early to tell his parents his exciting news.
"I have something important to tell you," his dad told him.
"Ok. Go ahead," Drakken said not knowing were the conversation was going.
"Have you ever wondered why your mother never asked about your new look? Or why she never questioned your so called radio name?" Drakken's dad ventured.
"Such is the love of a mother," Drakken said shrugging.
"No Drew think," his dad, said angrily.
"I give up! Why?" Drakken asked in an equally angry tone.
"Because of my job! Drew I am with GJ! I know that you're Drakken. I know Hailey is Shego. I kept it a secret from the world. Especially your mother. Do you know why? It was an outrage. My son a leading super-villain! It was a disgrace. Then they had Dr. Director take over and I was demoted four levels in fear of transferring information to you to help you to succeed. Your mother could not know. She wouldn't be able to take it. So I faked names and information. And she believed me. Every word. I kept newspapers stashed away and kept her busy during the evening news. My plan had no fault until she wanted to visit you. Do you see the flaw in my plan yet? By not telling her she believed you were fine and normal. But you couldn't tell her otherwise. Even if you tried she would never believed you. She believed your lies and never caught on. I hope you understand. I couldn't tell you before. I hope you understand. Good night."
The instant Mr. Lipski was gone Shego came running out of the hallway to comfort Drakken. She had heard the whole thing.
"How much did you hear?" Drakken asked with his face hidden in his hands.
"Enough. Drew you were right. We should have eloped. Right now we would be home happy and safe but since I was determined to get my way we're trapped," Shego sighed.
"No we're not," Drakken said standing up, "This is our wedding. We should have control. Not my dad and his stupid idea, not your mom in her control freak manner, us you and me. Drew and Hailey. Hailey and Drew. We are capable adults and we can plan our own wedding. What do you say?"
"I say that you're right, we can do this," Shego said confidently.
"So we can leave to elope and stop somewhere far from our families..." Drakken said excitedly.
"No Drew. You said this was our wedding. So we're going to get married as planned. But we're going to this our way. We're not going to let anyone change that," Shego said cutting him off.
"Your right. Nothing can stop us now." Drakken said firmly.
Little did they know that there were several out there who would do all in their power to stop the wedding.
Author's Note: I know the title of this chapter is also a title of an episode. I didn't do that purposely however. I just thought it was an appropriate title for this chapter. :)
