Ch.18 A Totally Messed Up Plan
(I don't own KP. Or the characters.)
Shego insisted that Summer should get medical treatment to make sure nothing was broken but Summer told her she'd be fine.
"Yeah right. You can't put any weight on your right leg. How do you expect Duff Killagin to walk you down the aisle? Do you expect him to carry you? He's more likely to drag you down the aisle," Shego told her.
"But I want to be there for your wedding!" Summer insisted.
"And I want you to be ok!" Shego snapped very irritated.
"And I want to know who the best man's going to be!" Monkey Fist shouted.
"No fair! You took my line!" Killagin shouted back.
"First come first serve," Monkey Fist said shrugging.
"Enough! Neither of you is going to be my best man if you don't stop arguing!" Drakken shouted over the noise.
The room went quiet. All eyes were on Drakken somehow he'd managed to get all of their attention.
"Do you really expect me to pick? Killagin, you came to help me when Shego and I caught colds and arranged for help when you got sick, you helped me a lot by doing that. Monkey Fist, you were my first actual friend other than Shego after college. That meant a whole lot to me. I don't know whom to pick because you are BOTH my friends. For crying out loud we are acting like pre- schoolers. Either Shego you get another bridesmaid or neither Killagin nor Monkey Fist will be my best man," Drakken said now that he had everyone's attention.
"Are we back to villainy then?" drawled Mego from the doorway.
"No. Drew's friends call us by those names only because they met us then and aren't accustomed to our normal names," Shego said simply.
"Right. Mom, Dad and the Lipski clan went to go grab lunch and Hego went to pick Celina up from daycare. Wego went to their friend's house so I hope you don't mind my invasion of your little pow-wow," Mego informed her.
"Actually..." Shego began but her fiancé cut her short.
"That's fine Mego. We're just going to plan the wedding and do other boring stuff like that," Drakken said hoping that would sound uneventful enough.
"But you've all ready got a location for the wedding! And food! And the outfits right?" Mego stuttered shocked.
"Right but there are a few bugs we need to work out so unless you want to feel very bored I'd advise you to leave," Shego told Mego catching on to Drakken's idea.
"What sort of bugs?" Mego asked.
"You know little details like how to find another bridesmaid," Shego said shrugging.
"Why not your friend you went shopping with?" Mego suggested smirking.
"What?" Shego asked pretending she didn't have a clue.
"You know the one with red hair?" Mego informed her.
Oh crud. He's talking about Kim. How the heck would he know? I only told Drakken. Mego is so toast for spying or eavesdropping or whatever he did to find out! Shego thought angrily.
Drakken obviously didn't catch on to whom Mego meant.
"Great idea! Why don't you give your friend a call? I mean it is a close family and friends ceremony. So she is coming anyways, right?" Drakken exclaimed handing Shego his phone.
Shego shot Mego a venomous look. She was just warming up to her brothers but Mego sent her back to Polar Regions. She then grabbed the phone from Drakken.Shego walked into another room "for better reception".She dialed for the operator. She asked if she could be connected to Wade's line and then asked Wade to connect her to Kim. Of course Shego being one of the villains Wade recognized her voice.
"Why do you of all people need to talk to Kim?" Wade asked.
"See you said people. That's what Kim, does help people. And I'm a person and I need help. So will you please connect me to Kim?" Shego said sweetly.
"Fine, no need to get all word for word on me," Wade said calling Kim.
Beep-be-be-dee! The Kimmunicator rang. Kim picked up. She and Ron were at Bueno Nacho.
"What's the sitch Wade?" Kim asked happily she was having a good day. She and Ron had gotten back from Chicago and put Shego's weird news behind them.
"You'll never guess who needs your help," Wade told her patching Shego through.
"Shego?" Ron asked. He had turned to look at the Kimmunicator when Wade said "you'll never guess who needs your help."
"Why do you need our help?" Kim asked.
"Ooh. Maybe it's like that time when Drakken and Dobbs switched brains!" Ron shouted.
"Not even. I just have a few questions for you two," Shego said justifying her reason for calling.
"Ok. What are your questions?" Kim asked slowly.
"First off Kimmie do you know how soon you could get to Chicago?" Shego asked.
"Umm. I'd have to ask Wade," Kim told her. Boy was she confused.
"Ok. Could you be here within the next few hours?" Shego asked.
"Yet again I'll check with Wade," Kim explained.
"Makes sense. Could you stay for the next couple days?" Shego asked her third question knowing that somehow this was her only option.
"I'd have to ask my parents," Kim told Shego even more confused than she was earlier.
"Right. But if both of you could come and stay how would you two feel about being part of my wedding?" Shego asked wondering why she was doing this. The things we do for love, Shego thought knowing that if Kim said no Drakken would have a tough decision to make.
"What?" Kim asked.
"You heard right. I don't know why but for some reason I want you to be my bridesmaid and your sidekick to be the ring bearer," Shego told her.
"How can we trust you?" Ron asked in a paranoid tone.
"How much more convincing do you need?" Shego asked annoyed.
"A lot. You're still a villain," Ron told her.
"How about we call a truce. You come to my wedding without arresting me, Drakken, or any of our guests and I'll be good for the next 6 months. I have a feeling if I'm good Drakken will be good to. As for the rest of the villains, I can't account for their behavior," Shego sighed. I can't believe I'm doing this. I mean Kim is still my archenemy. For some strange reason I want her there. Shego thought. These thoughts were throbbing in the back of her mind.
"You have a deal. If I can convince my parents," Kim told her.
That night Kim Possible went home to find her parents looking at the mail. In their hands was an invitation. Kim looked over their shoulders to read the words: You are invited to the wedding of Drew Theodore P. Lipski and Shelia Hailiana Emily Gonzales.
"s-h-e-g... Shego!" Kim whispered.
"What's that Kimmy-cub?" her dad asked.
"Nothing," Kim said. "Ok. Do you think it could be a trap?" her mom asked.
"No! I mean that's so not Drakken's style. He wouldn't- couldn't come up with something like this," Kim explained.
"We'll discuss this at dinner," her dad said putting the invitation in his pocket. That evening the Possible family were seated at the dinner table discussing that invitation.
"I think we're going," Jim said.
"Are you crazy? I bet we're not," Tim replied.
"And I thought this was our decision to make," Kim's dad told them.
"Eat your peas boys," Kim's mom told them.
"I think Jim's right!" Kim blurted out.
"Kimmie? What do you mean?" her mom asked.
"I know it's not a trap and I know the bride. And it's not a hoax," Kim told them.
"What? Slow down honey. How do you know? Did you have Wade scan the invitation?" her dad asked.
"No. When Ron and I went to Chicago we ran into Shego there. We followed her into the bridal shop and eventually she confessed she was going to marry Drakken. I know it sounds beyond weird but that invitation confirmed her story. Shelia –S Hailiana-H Emily- E Gonzales- Go it spells out Shego. Drew Lipski is Drakken's real name therefore it must be true. Shego even asked me to be her bridesmaid. I think that we should go," Kim told them.
"Kim you expressed your opinion very well. I think that it would be a good idea to go," her mom told her.
"Honey. Are you sure?" Mr. Possible asked.
"If it is a trap, I deal with Drakken and Shego all the time. Not to mention Ron is going so we'd be able to take care of anything they do. Plus I'm guessing Shego's family will be there and she doesn't have it in her to do anything bad around them. So I think it's pretty safe to go," Kim explained.
"All right Kimmy-cub we'll go," her dad sighed.
"Yes. Thank-you. I got to call Ron really fast. Bye," Kim said cleaning her place and running to call her best friend.
Author's Note: I know some of y'all might hate me for bringing Kim into this but it was a suggestion from my mom, best friend, and little sister so I figured it must be a good idea if so many people are suggesting it. Hope you like my solution. Please review soon.
