Chapter 5: Battlefield Antarctica

000

The Preventer Gundams had come to Earth heading for the Antarctic all of them feeling the air growing colder and colder around them. It was decided that because of the destination and the kind of battle that was coming Preventer decided to use a boat to get down there. Kim had a suggestion to use a super tanker she saved once. It was on a mission when someone tried to create an oil spill, which she foiled. The captain of the ship was more than happy to help her as well as Preventer in whatever they needed. The captain though had to remind Kim of the messy mission, but she had to shrug and say, "It was no big."

On deck Kim and Ron were looking out into the vast sea, the Atlantic was the very sea that they were traveling upon. The distinct salty moist air was all around them, and the cold. Each day it grew colder and colder on the way down. So much that Kim and Ron had to wear special suits to make the cold a little more bearable. The air was also growing thick with the impending danger that was coming over the horizon. Neither Ron nor Kim were ever this tense about going on a mission, perhaps it was because of the kind of warning they were given about the Epyon that Shego would have in her possession. A great reassurance to both of them was the fact that they had the back up of all those weeks of training under the Gundams. The mobile suits Mercurius and Vayeate, but the greatest reassurance was the Gundams themselves. With that in mind they felt like they had an army backing them up on this mission.

It wasn't just the Gundams that they knew whom were backing them up, they had also received a new member. Apparently this member had been scouring the world looking for Shego as well. This was a man with silvery blonde hair and blue eyes, he called himself Preventer Wind. It was only a few days ago on this super tanker that he introduced himself to Kim and Ron. Kim was immediately taken aback by this man, his good looks and his charm stunned her, but she knew that he was way too old for her. Plus he had brought another Gundam with him; it was called the Tallgeese III. To Kim and Ron it was a very odd looking mobile suit indeed, but both of them wanted to see it in action, and that chance was coming over the horizon.

The Gundams had launched from the super tanker and headed to the sight for Shego's base. It seemed nearly senseless when they reached the actual continent Kim and Ron had lost sense of direction since all of it was white. The only other colors were the blue sky above, other than that it was all white. If it weren't for the heads up displays within the cockpits of the Gundams they wouldn't have the slightest clue if they were going in the right direction. Then it came up; there it was an enormous base, just like any other that Kim or Ron had come to when facing their villains. As Kim had said before, "all lairs start to look alike after a while". This would be it, perhaps the last time that Kim would have to face Shego.

Little did she know that upon the other side of the battlefield, Shego was watching. She watched through the thick glass and ice crusted windows at the approaching Gundams. Her face was already smiling at the fact that they were coming. It all seemed to good to be true and the best part to her was that there was no goofy Dr. Drakken to foul up her plans. No longer would she have to tell him to touch nothing that she knew exactly how it all worked. She reached down to the microphone extending out of the control panels.

"All mobile dolls, launch. Target the intruders. Show no mercy."

Outside in the dangerously cold Antarctic environment the Gundams watched a truly horrible sight. From the base came mobile dolls, Virgo type mobile dolls, coming in swarms like bees. Kim and Ron had been briefed on what mobile dolls were, basically mobile suits that could function without the presence of a pilot. So even mobile suit warfare becomes like that of push-button wars, where the enemies can be miles away and watch the battle without loosing or killing a single life. In the particular situation Kim and Ron were in, theirs and the Gundams lives were on the line.

"Split formation!" Quatre called, "take on as many mobile dolls as you can."

Disregarding Quatre's orders, Kim and Ron stayed together, since that was the actual function of the Mercurius and the Vayeate, to depend upon each other. The Mercurius with its shields the defense and the Vayeate with its cannon the offense.

Taking to the battle immediately, Kim got behind the shields that Ron had already deployed while her cannon charged. They watched the mobile dolls in action, they looked like a combination of the suits that she and Ron were piloting. The enormous cannon of the Vayeate and the shield disks of the Mercurius.

The Gundams were fighting fiercely, the Wing Zero with its buster rifle destroying tens of mobile dolls. The DeathScythe was slicing through them as fast as it could then disappearing into nothingness and reappearing to take down more. The Heavyarms opened all compartments in its body firing all bullets and missiles as well as firing the cannon in each direction it could. Sandrock, like the DeathScythe could only slice the mobile dolls, yet sometimes the shields would deflect or hold back the Sandrock knives. The Shenlong was doing quite well against them, deploying its Dragon Fang and getting in close enough that the shields that the mobile dolls had didn't matter.

The Mercurius and the Vayeate were doing just as well against them. Though Kim had to use the Vayeate beam sword since the cannon took so long to charge. The mobile dolls didn't take that long to bring down, but Kim knew that this was too easy when facing Shego. Come to think of it, she thought, where is she? It was a question that she would regret to think. Off in the distance she saw something come out of the base, her mind thought back to the schematics that Trieze Kushrinada showed her and her mind clicked into place. It was the Gundam Epyon, a devil of a Gundam. She watched as it sped out in bird mode looking unlike anything she had ever seen before. It came close and then began to transform. High above Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable saw the Gundam Epyon, floating above the Antarctic terrain with wings spread like a demon and a whip extending from its shield like a dungeon master. Yet it was just the eyes that sent terror both into Kim and Ron. Kim heard a familiar voice over her COM.

"Hey, Kimmie." The voice said, "long time."

"Shego." Kim whispered, "So not."

Kim held onto the controls of the Vayeate and floored the thrusters to its maximum. She wanted to get Shego, but as she accelerated to the Epyon she watched as it drew a weapon from its hip. It looked like the hilt of a sword with a cable attaching to its hip. The hilt of the sword began to emit a large glowing beam; Kim made the connection that it was a beam sword. Her brain was switching from the options of either being offensive of defensive. As she watched the Epyon's beam sword she decided to switch to defensive. The beam sword came down on Kim and it looked like it was going to slice her in half but she brought up her beam saber against it. She watched as the two swords sparked against each other. Kim could swear that she saw Shego's face in the eyes of the Epyon and she was laughing.

"Not so tough now, Kimmie, are you?" She asked

"Careful Shego." Kim warned, "I've been trained by the Gundams!"

"Ooooo!" Shego said sarcastically, "Oooo, I'm so scared."
"Ron!" Kim called

"Coming KP!" Ron replied as he took the beam shield of the Mercurius and accelerated to the Epyon. He came with such a speed that Shego had never seen. She had to ask herself the question was it really Ron Stoppable, Kim's chum in that Mobile Suit? Then she saw the way that the red mobile suit was holding its beam sword, Shego knew that he was serious. She drew back and brought around the whip coming from the shield on the Epyon's left arm. It came down on the Mercurius with incredible speed. Ron looked at it and noticed with his newly trained eyes that it was burning red. Of course, his sense told him it wasn't good and he quickly thought of a recourse action. He brought up the shields of the Mercurius and the whip was deflected.

"Nice move." Shego congratulated, "but just watch this."

Kim and Ron both were confused as to what Shego was going to do, but the Gundams would have a pretty good idea. She was about to do the most universally stupid and dangerous maneuver a suit like the Epyon can offer. Shego reached down to the controls within the cockpit and switched on the Zero system. Within the Epyon cockpit, Shego was dressed in full flight suit with the colors of black and green. Over her head she wore a helmet that completely covered her face. There were no eyeholes, just a small shield that came down over that area, but within the helmet she could see everything that the Epyon could display. It was a way to bring the screens closer to her. At the moment she switched on the Zero system, it began to do its effects. It began to beep, louder and faster with each passing second. Shego watched within the helmet the combat data that she had seen of Kim, Ron and the Gundams. It was passing by her face so quick that she couldn't even keep track, but the beeping was going so fast that she couldn't hear anything else. Then everything within her vision began to glow yellow.

"You're all my enemies." She said, "anyone who fights me is my enemy! You'll all die!"

"Uh-oh." Ron said to himself, "we really got a problem."
"Big problem." Rufus said from the flight suit pocket.

The Epyon spread its wings and raised its beam sword above its head. It had happened, Shego had lost herself to the Zero system, and they were going to pay the price. Shego attacked the Mercurius and the Vayeate, she sliced off their arms and legs leaving them to fall into the icy continent below. Even then, it wasn't enough for Shego, she turned her attention to the mobile dolls that she had built in her own lair. She sliced them all just as easily as she had created them. In attacking her own mobile dolls she kept screaming the same line over and over again.

"All my enemies." She screamed, "You're all my enemies."

All Kim and Ron could do was watch from their damaged suits. Thankfully Shego never damaged either suit completely otherwise both would have to bail out. Even that would make it worse, out of the exploding suit and into the freezing cold.

What they couldn't see was the great conflict that was going on inside the cockpit of the Epyon. Shego knew that it was dangerous to even use the Zero system. She had tried it once before a week ago and it took so much control that it took an even greater amount of will power to get out of it. As she was so immersed in the Zero system she could only watch from the back of her mind. She saw herself destroying the mobile dolls and shredding the Gundams to pieces. That was when she began to hallucinate, she was seeing past memories. She remembered to that time when she and Dr. Drakken had the first run in with Kim Possible. They chased Kim back to Middleton to get a miniature tick off of her and in the pursuit Shego made a limitation to Dr. Drakken.

"What did we agree on?" Shego asked

"I touch nothing?" the goofy doctor asked.

"Yeah!" She answered

She flashed forward to when she had stolen a Club Banana jacket, green leather. She remembered how annoyed Kim looked when she saw her in that jacket. She delighted to when she had come to Drakken's lair without Ron Stoppable, the only time when she was safely tied up. Still that didn't work like every other plan that Drakken had made, but this time Shego was in control. This time her plan was working. She had beaten Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable in their mobile suits.

"Aha! Ha! Ha! Ha!" She laughed, "I'm winning!"

She relished in her victory, but Epyon had turned against her. It started to show her images of a horrible future. She saw herself being defeated by another suit, this one looked just as fierce as the Epyon. It was armed with a twin cannon rifle and a large shield. She watched as the ends of the rifle were pointed right at her face. She knew what was going to come from that gun. It came true as the barrels began to burn yellow and the color engulfed her. She screamed as she pulled off her helmet. She was sweating so much that her long black hair was damp down to her skin, her make up was running and her lip color smeared. She looked at the screens and didn't want to be taken advantage of at a weak moment. She grabbed hold of the Epyon's controls, switched to bird mode and flew off into the distance.

Shego had left behind her a mess of devastation, everything, mobile suits, Gundams and even the base was nothing but rubble. She had caused the damage and yet her conscious mind could do nothing. Do nothing except sit back and watch the horror show. This was a day that would live on forever in the minds of Ron Stoppable and Kim Possible, the day that the battle had been both lost and won.
