Ch.20 Drakken's New Found Fear
(I don't own any of the Kim Possible characters.)
When Kim, her family, and Ron arrived to Go Tower there was an awkward silence followed by loud shouting from the other guests.
"Kim Possible?" Drakken hissed loudly in Shego's ear.
"It can't be!" Duff Killagin shouted.
"Ron Stoppable. We meet again?" Monkey Fist asked getting into a kung fu position.
"Enough! People please!" Shego shouted.
"Thank you. I thought you said you'd be good!" Kim yelled.
"I know. But I failed to mention that you were coming. Let me explain," Shego told them.
"Yes, I think you should explain," Drakken said angrily.
"When Summer sprained her ankle Mego told me to call Kim. You seemed all for the idea Drew. So I did. I didn't want to disappoint anyone so I agreed. I feel so stupid but it's a little late to change the past. So can you all call a truce that until the end of the wedding reception you'll try to get along? Please?" Shego asked.
"You have my word. I don't want anything to spoil this," Drakken said squeezing Shego's hand.
"All right," Kim said in agreement.
"Fine," Monkey Fist, Ron, and Summer said.
"Okay. Freaky but ok," Adrena Lynn agreed.
"Oh alright. I agree," Killagin said eventually.
"Then it's settled. Rehearsals are in a hour and a half and we still gotta find Kim a dress and Stoppable needs a tux. Drew I'd advise you help our guests get settled while I take them shopping, ok?" Shego asked grabbing her purse.
Drakken looked at the Possible clan then back to Shego. He sighed. There was no other choice.
"But..." Drakken protested but his fiancé had left along with Kim and Ron.
He sighed. He didn't want to face his ex- best friend from college. Ever since Mr. Possible and his posse had laughed at Drew he had been Drakken and had vowed to get back at them. It was like he had been rejected by his own kind and having Possible at his wedding was the last thing Drakken had planned. Drakken reminded himself about the promise to Shego and told himself to knuckle down and do what he was told.
"So welcome to Go Tower. Take a seat. Please," Drakken said gesturing to the few empty seats remaining.
"That's quite alright," Mrs. Possible said quietly.
Mr. Possible remained silent. This was the strangest sight he had seen in his life. They were inside the fabled Go Tower of do-gooders with some of Kim's arch foes. It was odd he admitted but for some reason he didn't feel threatened.
"So you're getting married," Mr. Possible said trying to break the ice.
"Yep," was all Drakken said.
"Dad, super villains don't get married," Tim explained.
"Do too," Drakken muttered.
"Not this argument again. Tim you and Jim already discussed this," Mrs. Possible sighed. "You'll have to excuse them, they're only ten."
"No. It's alright. Thing 1 over there has a point. I'm a super villain and I'm doing something good. Something in a church," Drakken said in awe. It had never occurred to him before. Then the most daunting thought came to mind.
"I'm getting married and the guy who's going to perform the ceremony is a judge!" Drakken gasped. He began hyperventilating. This was the scariest thing he figured he'd ever do. Drakken had never seen a judge's good side. He'd always seen them as people who sentence people like himself to years in jail.
"Are you going to chicken out?" Jim asked.
"No. I don't want to. I mean- I can't. I love her... but there's going too be a judge there and..." Drakken stammered. Things were getting blurry. Soon everything was black.
Drakken had passed out and everything was in a fog. He was in the church. Shego was walking down the aisle in her green and black jumpsuit. When she reached the alter she grabbed Drakken's hand. The judge spoke the vows and both Drakken and Shego had said I do.
"You may kiss the bride," the judge said.
Shego and Drakken kissed. Then instead of saying the usual 'I now pronounce you husband and wife' the judge said something different something almost threatening.
"I now sentence you to happy married bliss," said the judge.
Drakken awoke in a cold sweat. He was no longer on the floor. He was now in his room at Go Tower. Shego and Monkey Fist and Killagin were all standing around him. Then he noticed Kim. She was talking into the Kimmunicator.
"Wade, Mom said he'd be fine it was probably just stress or something. You can scan his head if you want but it won't make a difference. He's already up." Kim told the blue device.
"What happened?" Drakken asked slowly. His head hurt.
"I saw the whole thing. You went limp. And your eyes were all big. Then you started shaking. And then you went into a fit and passed out," Killagin said.
"Enough! We don't want to scare him!" Monkey Fist shouted.
"I agree wholeheartedly and I would like you to leave. In fact Monkey Fist I think it would be best if you went with him," Shego said softly, yet firmly.
"But," Monkey Fist argued.
"Now banana boy. I want a word with my fiancé."
Monkey Fist left hastily. He didn't want to deal with Shego in a bad mood.
"What about her?" Drakken asked pointing to Kim.
"Oh. I see your point. Kim do you mind?" Shego asked trying to remain polite.
"Sure. Later," Kim said leaving quickly.
"What happened?" Shego asked sympathetically.
Drakken told her the whole story. Shego's eyes were filled with confusion. Drakken had proposed and now it seemed like he was having second thoughts.
"So are you having second thoughts?" Shego whispered.
"No. I'm positive this is the right thing to do. C'mon the others are waiting and we have rehearsals to get to."
A/N: The wedding is closer than ever and Dementor and Falcon have a plan. Drakken is wary. Shego has a new bridesmaid. How will this all even out in the end? The suspense is killing me. what about y'all?
