Kim Possible and all the characters of the show are owned by the Disney Company. I own this work of fiction.
Just a note about a review
Maquareion No offense taken, however just because one is a scientist or a doctor does not prevent one from attending a church or believing in a supreme being. Most doctors and surgeons I know have a wonderful faith in God. I also know several scientists that have faith in God also. I am not sure of what you mean by overly religious, I don't think helping with a children's Sunday School class is that. Most churches I know have teens help in the classes. I know that in the show there is no reference made to Kim's faith.This is typical of any Disney show. Disney goes a long way to avoid any religious overtones.Ron is definitely shown as being Jewish. We know that Kim is not, but as she celebrates Christmas I placed her in a church setting.
A Stoppable Christmas – Chapter two
Ranger Station
Ranger Danelle Smith met Kim and Ron as they drove up to the Ranger Station. "You must be Team Possible. I have your equipment ready. I have two 2-person snowmobiles ready for you. There is winter survival gear on the racks on the back. There are sleeping bags, food, medical supplies and other emergency supplies. You should have enough fuel to get there and back. The couple told us that they have some gas there at the cabin so you can top off the tanks."
"Thanks, do you have any idea of what the weather is going to be like?" asked Ron as he and Kim started to put on their winter gear.
"We really don't know right now, the forecaster can't seem to get a real good hold on the situation. The best thing we can suggest is get in and out ASAP." Danelle told them.
Kim got on her snowmobile, pulled her on her helmet, and started her machine with a roar. Ron soon had his machine started and ready. The two teens gave the ranger two thumbs up and started off into the growing storm.
The trail was well marked but the growing drifts of soft snow made for difficult maneuvering. Kim struggled with the handlebars of her machine as she fought to keep the machine on the trail. The headlights of the machine could barely penetrate the falling snow. Kim stopped her machine and Ron pulled up next to her and they both turned off their machines.
"It's getting worse" she said "We need to call Wade and get an update on the storm." Kim had to brush snow off of her burgundy snowsuit that she always wore in the winter so that she could get to her Kimmunicator.
"Wade, are you there" called Kim.
"Kim, I am glad you called in, I was getting ready to beep you. The rangers just called and told me that the storm is getting worse. You need to hurry and get to the cabin."
"OK, Wade" Kim said "we are on our way".
The two teens bent over to restart their machines as soon were back on the trail. Wade had arranged for GPS units to be placed on both machines. Kim and Ron were able to use the GPS units to stay on the trail even in the darkening skies and heavy snow. Kim could feel the temperature falling as they continued up the trail. She would glance back to check on Ron once in awhile. He was handling the snowmobile like a seasoned driver. He saw her looking back and gave her an OK signal with his thumb and forefinger. Soon the teens could make out a dim light through the swirling snow. It was the cabin. The cabin was nestled up on the side of the mountain so on a clear day you would have a wonderful view of the valley. The car in the drive was completely buried in snow. There was a dim light coming from inside of the cabin. They parked the snowmobiles under a shelter built on the side of the cabin. They picked up the packs of equipment and supplies and made their way to the side door. The door opened and a young man helped them into the house. The interior of the cabin was warm and inviting. Light from kerosene lanterns gave a warm glow to the log walls of the main room as they entered. A fire blazed in the fireplace giving warmth to the room.
"Hi" said the man "my name is John Abrams, this is my wife Pam" He indicated a young woman who was very pregnant sitting in a nearby chair. "You must be Team Possible"
"Hi" said Kim "My name is Kim Possible, this is my partner Ron Stoppable."
"Thanks for coming" said John, "we were wondering if you would be able to make it here or if you made it would we be able to get out."
"Well, Mr. Abrams" Kim said, "It is pretty bad out there right now; I need to call in and see what the conditions are going to be like in the next few hours." Kim pulled out her Kimmunicator and called Wade. "Wade, what is the story about the storm?"
Wade's face on the screen showed concern. "Kim, I am glad you called in. The rangers told me to tell you to stay put. The conditions are too bad for you to try and make it back out in the dark. Wait till the morning when you can see better and the storm might be over."
"Okay, Wade" acknowledged Kim "We will stay the night and head out first thing in the morning." Kim turned off the Kimmunicator and put it back in her coat pocket. "Well" she said "Looks like we all are staying the night. Ms. Abrams, are you going to be okay till the morning?"
Pam nodded "Call me Pam, please, yes I'll be okay"
John asked "Would the two of you like something to drink? Coffee? Hot chocolate?"
Kim smiled at the same time as Ron. "Some hot chocolate would be nice, thank you" John fixed them some soup to go with their hot chocolate to help them get warmed up. Kim and Ron slowly drank their hot chocolate letting the warmth of the sweet liquid flow down their throats. John had fixed them some chicken soup and both teens relished the warmth of the broth and taste of the lumps of noodles and chicken. After the two teens finished John also helped the two teens as they broke out the extra gear that they brought with them that included sleeping bags, extra food and water.
Pam asked "How do two teens as yourselves put up with having to fight all of those villains all over the world."
Kim and Ron smiled at each other. Kim explained "Well, we have been a team so long we just about know what the other is going to do before they do it. We have been friends longer than we have been a team. This trip is a welcome break from fighting those guys that we normally do."
"That's the truth" said Ron. "Today is the first time Kim and I have been on snowmobiles while someone is not trying to kill us or capture us. The ride today was a piece of cake. Cold and wet, but not too bad."
John shook his head. "You two are something else. Most teenagers your age that I know are mainly worried about cars, grades and other boys and girls. Yet you two go around the world fighting all these high tech bad guys."
Kim giggled a little and blushed at Ron when John mentioned "boys and girls". "Believe me, Mr. Abrams; we are just like most teenagers. We are into just those same things, just when we are not on missions. We have missed our share of dances, a couple of proms and a number of other functions that the other kids our age got to do. It hurts when we miss those things, but we feel we are making a difference."
"So, you are friends and team mates, but is there something else going on…. Oww" John stopped his question when Pam punched him in the arm.
"John Abrams, what a thing to ask these two nice young people!" she growled.
Ron gave a little laugh. "We don't mind Pam; we get the same question quite often." Ron looked over to Kim and reached over to take her hand. Kim grinned a little and said "We started seeing each other as little more than friends awhile back. It has taken a little getting used to. I mean we have been friends so long, it is hard to take that next step, but we are working at it."
"Well, it is getting late, there is only one bedroom here, but we can move some of the furniture and the two of you can have the den here. The fireplace is banked for the night so you will be warm." Pam said.
"Thank you, Kim and I will be just fine out here. We have our sleeping bags and pads so we will be comfortable. We have had to make do in a lot worse places." Ron told Pam.
"Well, good night you two. We will see you in the morning." John said as he helped his wife up to head for their bedroom.
"Goodnight, Mr. and Mrs. Abrams, let us know if we can do anything for you." Kim said as the couple went into their room and closed the door.
Kim and Ron went to their pile of equipment and got out their sleeping bags and pads. Ron helped Kim unroll her pad and bag and then set out his own pad and bag. Both of the teens had taken off their snowsuits and had on sweat suits. Kim brushed out her hair and put it into a ponytail. Ron lay back and watched his auburn haired friend get ready for sleep. Kim glanced over and saw Ron smiling at her.
"Don't look at me that way." She said with a smile.
"Don't look at you like what?" asked Ron.
"I don't know, just funny looking." Kim giggled.
"I could look at you like this" and with that Ron made a glassy eyed googoo eyed look that caused Kim to collapse in laughter.
"Stop that" She laughed.
"Well, KP, our first night in front of a fire in a cabin in the mountains." Kim looked over at Ron as he lay sporting his goofy smile.
Kim could not help but smile a little. "Ron Stoppable, are you flirting with me?" she asked.
"No, not flirting, at least not much." He said with a smile. "Come on over here" He said as he patted the floor beside him. Kim smiled and got up and pulled her sleeping bag up next to Ron. Ron opened his bag so that Kim could get in his bag yet still be in hers. Ron put his arm around Kim as she snuggled up close to Ron.
Kim gave out a small moan of pleasure "You are nice and warm" she said sleepily and soon dosed off to sleep. Ron continued to hold Kim as she slept; he gazed into the fire and soon fell asleep himself.
John had gotten up during the night and looked out in the living room and saw the two teens asleep in front of the fire. He called his wife over to see. She looked into the room and saw Ron with his arm around Kim. Kim was snuggled up to Ron with a very contented smile on her face. Pam looked up at her husband as she put her arm around him. She smiled up at her husband. "I have always heard so much of the bravery and skill of Team Possible. Two fantastic young heroes going around the world fighting hi-tech villains at every step. Now I see just two young people who seem to care a great deal for each other. Nice to see with all that they do that they can still be just normal teens." The couple closed the door and went back to sleep.
The next morning the two couples got up and got ready to head out into the storm on their way out of the valley. When they got up they woke to the smell of coffee, bacon and eggs. Kim glanced up from her place on the floor to see Ron placing plates of food on the table. When he saw Kim moving he went over to her and gave her a hug. "Morning, KP, did you have a good night sleep?" he asked. She gave him a slight smile. "Well, I sure was nice and warm considering someone special held me all night."
The door to the bedroom opened and Pam and John came out into the main room. "Wow" John said "something smells great!"
Ron stood "There is coffee, bacon and eggs, and soon some pancakes. You three can just sit down and I will join you when I finish. I thought everyone would feel better with a good breakfast."
The two couples enjoyed the meal that Ron had fixed and then started to make preparations to head out into the storm.
Kim was helping Pam get ready to leave when Pam told Kim "You have a real keeper there young lady. Kind, courteous, rather good looking, and he can cook too. How is he at housework?"
Kim broke out in laughter. "Oh, he is the best cook in the world and he is the greatest friend I have ever had, but his house-keeping skills leave something to be desired."
Ron and John had gotten the snowmobiles ready while Kim helped Pam get ready for the trip. They were all in the den of the cabin putting on their heavy coats when Kim pulled out the Kimmunicator.
"Wade, what are conditions like?" she asked. "Kim, there has been a lot of snow and there are chances of avalanches in your area so be careful on your way out." As Kim was speaking to Wade the group heard a low rumble from the rear of the cabin that kept getting louder with each second. The cabin started to vibrate and the roaring noise was deafening. John grabbed for Pam and started to pull her under a table. Ron was reaching for Kim as she screamed into the Kimmunicator "Wade, we are having an avalanche." Kim turned and reached for Ron. She could see fear in his eyes in that brief second it took for the snow to break through the rear wall and the roof caved in a wall of snow. Kim and Ron's fingers barely touched when they were both enveloped in a freezing wet whiteness. The last sight Ron had of Kim was her frightened eyes; her hand outstretched reaching for him and her mouth saying his name. Then there was darkness and he remembered nothing.
