CC:Last update for today. I don't do angst anyway, I usually jump into a fight scene to avoid it.

"What are you to looking at me for?" Kim asked. Adam and Shego were both staring at her.

"You're the leader, so make with the leading." Adam shrugged. Shego laughed.

"Oh. Let's go then." Kim said, and leapt off the ramp. Shego followed. Kim had her own parachute, and Shego was given one by Hawkgirl. Adam declined, and leapt out the back of the plane. Kim and Shego both noticed that. There was a sudden noise as he bolted past them, then he swung lazily back around, as the Justice league jet flew away. Kim stared. "Where did you hide that?" She asked.

"What?" He replied, tilting the wings of his hang glider backpack the other way.

"That backpack." Shego snapped. He didn't seem to be having trouble keeping up with them.

"Standard issue, part of the jacket." He grinned, patting the denim jacket he wore. Kim sighed, and turned her attention to the island below them.

"Here's the plan, first, we confirm that it's Gemini, then we shut down his power generators. Then we call for a ride out." Kim said. She looked at Adam and Shego. "Objections?"

"None." Shego said, with a shake of her head.

"Nope." Adam grinned.

"Good, follow me." Kim touched down on the roof, and let her parachute fall. Shego did the same, and Adam just touched down, and let the wings fold in. Kim rolled her eyes, and motioned for them to follow her. She took the lead, and Shego the rear. All three watched carefully. A laser sight, alerted them to a patrolling guard before they could hear him. They hung braced against one another over head as he passed below. They dropped down, and Kim took the lead again. The place was maze like, and after a short time, they were lost. Kim tried the Kimmunicator, and found the signal jammed. "That's just great." She muttered

"Isn't it though? We can block even GJ communications." Gemini said from behind them. Shego muttered something, and tapped Kim on the shoulder. She turned, to find the they were facing a dozen armed guards.

"Have I mentioned I hate this job?" Adam asked.

"Yes, as a matter of fact, you have." Kim replied.

"Hands up." Gemini ordered.

"So, Shego having been one until recently, what is it with Villains and walls?" Adam asked, terrifyingly calm.

"Does it matter?" Kim asked.

"Just curious." Adam shrugged with a tilt of his head.

"It's just more convenient to attach heroes to the wall, than keep a clean jail cell." Shego replied. "A bomb is a better idea, but apparently, he didn't have one handy." She chuckled slightly. The three of them were hanging, chained to a wall, awaiting Gemini's return.

"If I can reach my watch, we can get out of here." Kim said, straining.

"If I can get my powers to work, then I'll melt these stupid cuffs off." Shego said, rather smugly.

"I'm fresh out of ideas." Adam shrugged.

"I can't reach it." Kim sighed, and then relaxed against the manacles.

"They just won't go." Shego sighed, and followed Kim's example.

"I want fried chicken." Adam said. Kim and Shego stared as if he was nuts. "For my last meal."

"We're going to survive this, trust me." Kim assured him. The look he gave her, was partially as if she was insane, partially as if she was being funny, and partially utter disbelief.

"The last time I heard that, a building fell on top of me." He said, without the slightest trace of exaggeration.

"Is that what happened?" Shego asked. He nodded.

"Well, isn't this just beautiful?" Gemini said, as he walked in.

"You'll never get away with this." Kim snapped.

"Won't I? With Stoppable out of commission, and the three of you captured, and helpless, I believe I already have." Gemini smiled.

"Captured, yes. Helpless, never." Adam raised his eyes. Gemini froze. Shego, and Kim stared. "Don't just hang there, put him down." Adam snapped after a moment. "I can't keep this up forever."

"Right." Kim kicked off the wall, and planted both feet in the side of his head. He toppled to the ground. "Now what?"

"Don't ask me, I was just stopping him from killing us. He's got the knife in his hand." Adam replied pointing with his foot. Kim looked, and there it was.

"How did you know?" Kim asked.

"Flash of light off the blade." Shego responded. "I saw it too."

"Hang on, I've got it." Kim said suddenly. There was a popping noise, and her left hand slid free. The noise came again, and then her right slid out. She dropped to the ground.

"How did you get out?" Both Adam and Shego demanded.

"Dislocated every bone in both of my hands." Kim replied in a strained voice. There was a popping noise again, and she flexed her right hand, then repeated the process with her left. She bent, and began to search Gemini's body. Finally she laughed. "Found the keys." She stood, and climbed Shego, then unlatched the cuffs, and then repeated it for Adam. She waved for them to follow her, and without really any other choice, they did so. She led them through the corridors, with what Shego thought an odd surety. :She was totally lost last time, but now she seems to know exactly where she's going. Why does that worry me?:

"Look out!" Shego screamed, and Kim leapt back, as a massive spike steel ball crashed through the wall. A chain attached pulled it back. "Run!" Shego screamed, and neither of the other two saw fit to argue. The mace smashed through the wall where they had just been, and then was pulled back. Shego took the lead, stopping and starting again, avoiding the mace by meer inches each time. Kim looked in askance at Adam, who shrugged. Kim sighed, and continued to follow Shego. Finally, they stopped, because it didn't seem to be after them any more.

"How in hell did you do that?" Kim snarled at Shego.

"Do what?" She replied calmly.

"Predict where that was going to hit." Kim snapped.

"I could hear it." Shego shrugged.

"Are you serious?" Kim asked, in disbelief. Shego shook her head.

"We each had something else enhanced when we received our powers." Shego grinned. "My hearing, Hego's eye sight, Mego's speed, and the Wego twins became stronger."

"What about Adam?" Kim asked. Shego grinned wider.

"We've already sampled his, enhancement." She chuckled, then laughed whole-heartedly at Kim's blush.

"Will you be quiet?" Adam snapped. Too late, a shadow appeared on the wall before them. Two guards appeared around the corner, but Kim and Shego slammed into them, bearing them to the ground. Kim had it easy, because her's was out on contact. Shego had to stop, and bash the head of her guard on the floor.

"How did you know?" Kim asked, as she rose.

"I'm watching with all my senses. Shall we?" Kim nodded, and took the lead again, moving with the same confidence as before. As they started to round a corner, Shego grabbed them both, and they ducked into a small room, as roughly two dozen guards stomped by.

"Where are we?" Kim asked, searching the wall for the light switch. Shego solved that problem.

"Heaven." Adam replied, awe struck. They were in what appeared to be Gemini's personal weapon's locker. Guns, and other weapons ranging in size and power sat there, ripe for the taking. Adam smiled.

"No killing." Kim snapped. He nodded absently. Shego sighed.

"Don't bother Kim, he's lost to us. Might as well find something you like, we could be here a while." She grinned, pointing as he vanished down one aisle. "Oh, fighting sticks." She pointed to a sign, and vanished down another aisle. Kim sighed.

"Well, when in Rome." She searched the aisles, and found her weapon of choice. Swords, surprisingly. The weapons ranged, from simple short swords, of all types, to the longer adult, and full size swords, up into the super size, and high tech weapons. She ignored the broadsword style weapons, and the thrusting blades, until she found, what most people would know as a katana. But this weapon was much more. Along with the standard katana blade, lain along the back, was a bright blue rod, which the ID card, identified as a stunner. The sword was named the Man-Stopper. She grinned, it seemed an apt name. There was a sheath along with it. Kim lifted it down, and sheathed it, strapping the weapon around her waist.

Shego, on the other hand, found that the term 'sticks' was an understatement. From the simple wooden bo's, to the steel fighting staves, and a few collapsible models of the same, which she pocketed, she found the high tech models, to be very entertaining. Some gave off poison, and some enough electricity to bring down a grown elephant. Remembering Kim's admonishment, about killing, Shego picked instead, one named Bonebreaker. The ID card, said it was able to destabilize the bone tissue on contact, if it was active as the hit occurred. She turned, and rejoined Kim, to find Adam already there.

"What did you pick up?" Shego asked curiously. He held up, what had to be the largest handheld gun she'd ever seen. A full three feet long, and metallic grey, the weapon was impressive. The barrel was square, with a round hole in the middle, running back to the trigger. There was no bolt, or action of any kind, and there was no magazine. The gun appeared blocky, but she didn't mention it. A scope on top, with several buttons, and a zoom wheel, made her nervous, if only slightly.

"A sonic assault cannon. The most powerful short range assault weapon on earth." He was grinning, literally ear to ear. Impossible for most people, his shape changing powers gave him the ability to do so.

"Let's go." Kim snapped, and walked out the door. Shego noted the sword at Kim's waist, with a certain degree of mirth.
