Disney owns the Kim Possible show and all the characters. I own this story and little else.
High on that Mountain – Part Four –
Kim and Ron stood holding each other in the bay of the spaceship behind the cockpit. Ron reached down into the pocket of the mission pants and pulled out a small cassette player. "Kim, there is a song on this tape player I was planning to play for you at our Senior Dance. I was hoping that you would have gone with me" "Ron, I would have loved to have gone with you." Said Kim. Ron reached over as he pressed the play button on the player and placed on the bulkhead of the room. As the gentle music started, Ron pulled Kim close to her and began a slow dance with her. Kim looked up into Ron's eyes and placed her head against his chest.

Kim looked up at Ron, with tears in her eyes, "I love you" and bringing her lips to his shared her love with him. She pulled back and held both his hands. "Ronald Adrian Stoppable, I would take thee to be my wedded husband, for richer for poorer, in sickness and health. So long as we both shall live." Ron looked at the auburn haired beauty before him and imagined her in a long flowing white wedding dress as he spoke "Kimberly Ann Possible, I would take thee to be my wedded wife, for richer for poorer, in sickness and health, so long as we both shall live." Ron looked at Kim, the person in his life that meant more to him that his own life. Kim held Ron close and began to cry softly. "Hold me, Ron" she said. Ron held her close and stroked her hair and kissed her on the head. "It will all be over soon." He looked over at the clock as the final minutes counted down.
Wade was monitoring all of the events going on in the world. He had not heard from Kim and Ron since he told them that they were far enough out that the earth was safe. He knew that he could call them, but he knew that right now there was nothing he could do or say to them. The best thing he could do for his friends was to give them the privacy that they deserved in these moments. The world was watching as the clock ticked down on the two teens. All of the radio and tv stations were tuned into the reports coming out on the situation. One of the main news channels for the world was running full coverage of the events as they unfolded around the world. Services were being held around the world as prayers were said for the two teens. The news channel was telling the story of Team Possible and their many exploits from around the world. A clock at the bottom of the screen showed the countdown. The newsdesk person was having trouble controlling her emotions. She was a professional newsperson but the one thing she knew was that two young people whose missions she had covered around the world were sacrificing their live on this their last mission so that the world may go on. As the final seconds counted down a narrator gave the final countdown.

Kim and Ron stood arms around one another. Kim looked up at Ron and smiled; Ron looked at her and returned her smile. "Ron, I wanted to live my life with you, to bear our children, and love you more and more each day." Ron said "Kim, I wanted to care of you and our children, support you and build our lives around each other." Ron bent down to give Kim a kiss.

The two teen's families were gathered in the rear yard of the Possibles. They watched the heavens for their children hoping beyond hope but knowing the reality. The twins sat to the side, already missing their sister, wondering what their lives would be like without her. The two mothers were arm in arm supporting one another. The two fathers stood side by side behind their wives. All knew that this time might come, as their children had been saving the world for sometime and always made it back. They knew that this time there was no coming back.

Football field at the High School
There were many students gathered on the field all watching the sky. Barkin had been angry when he found out but then he realized that they had come because of Kim and Ron and he knew what the gathering meant. He called some of the football players over and asked them to get field tarps out so that the people could sit. He saw that someone had gotten Kim's cheerleader uniform and Ron's mascot outfit out and started a memorial at the end of the field. Already the area was covered with candles, mementoes and flowers.

Shego watched the TV from her hospital room in the maximum security prison. Tears came to her eyes as the countdown went forward. In her hands was a paper. It was a bloodstained note. Kim had left it behind for Shego as she and Ron had left to face Drakken. She had also sent a note to Global Justice HQ as they were on the way to Drakken's lair. In it she gave the full story of the assistance that Shego had given in the hopes that if would help Shego. She turned to the message that Kim had left her and opened the bloodstained paper. It read.
Shego,
We have been enemies for so long and now I consider you to be a friend and ally. Thank you for your help in getting us ready to stop Drakken. I believe we can do it with the information that you have given us. I also want to thank for helping to lead Ron and I together. You made me realize what he means to me. We are together now and we love each other a great deal. I see my future and all my hopes in his eyes. In his arms I have found a sense of belonging and love that I have never felt before. I feel that we will not survive this mission. But as long as Ron and I are together we can face anything. If we are to pass from this earth at least we will be together.
Your new friend
Kim
Shego held on the paper as if her life depended on it. The tears flowed from her eyes as the countdown continued.

Kip Killigan and Lord Monkeyfist were watching this on TV together at Monkeyfist's mansion. They could not believe what was unfolding before them. Kip said "What are that lad and lass think they are doing? Why are they doing this?" "Mr. Killian" said Lord Monkeyfist, "Those two are the most worthy adversaries we have. They have been placed on a mission that only they can complete. I do not know of anyone I would rather have on this mission than Team Possible. For my part, I intend to honor their sacrifice, I intend to surrender to Global Justice. What happened to Dr. Drakken could happen to either one of us if we let it." "Aye" said Kip, "Those two have been a thorn in me side for a long time. But, now they are sacrificing themselves for us as much as the rest of the world. I will surrender with you, I believe that is the best way to honor the lad and the lass" They looked at each other and made a decision without a word passing between them. They contacted Global Justice and surrendered to the special teams sent to take them into custody.

Dr. Director stood in the main communication room of Global Justice. Reports were coming in from all over the world. The villains that Team Possible had been fighting all these years were surrendering. They felt that that was the best thing they could do to honor the two teens.

Wade sat at his computer as he continued to track the spaceship that Ron and Kim were on. They were far enough away now that the blast would not harm the earth. Wade was able to hack into some of satellites and turned them to scan the area where Ron and Kim were. He then left his computer and went outside. He looked into the dark sky. He said to himself and to Ron and Kim. "Ron, Kim, I will never forget. As long as I live I will work to help others remember what the two of you did." There was nothing he could do expect wait for the flash of light that would signal the end of the two teens.

Monique stood on the football field with the students at the high school. She held a copy of an e-mail in her hand that Kim had sent from the lair.
Monique,
Thanks for being my friend. You have been one of the best friends I have had. You stuck beside me even when I did not deserve you friendship, you and Ron both. I wanted to let you know that I am in love with Ron and he loves me. You probably already knew that. You have been trying to get me to realize that recently. Well, now I know. We are very happy. We both know that we might not survive this mission. If we do not return, please remember that I will miss all the shopping and trips to Club Banana. Please remember that finally Ron and I are together and I know that is where I want to be. In his arms I am at peace, a peace that I have never felt before.
Love your friend,
Kim
A hand touched Monique on her shoulder. She turned around and saw Bonnie standing there. Bonnie was really upset and crying. "Monique, Why? Why are they doing this?" Monique put her arms around Bonnie. "Bonnie, you should know that it has to be this way. Kim and Ron have been fighting this fight for years and they always knew there was a chance that a mission would come that they would not come back from. They understood and accepted that chance, but, this is what they do. This is the way the Kim and Ron would want it." Bonnie cried as she said "But I treated them both so bad. Now I will never be able to say that I was sorry." "Don't worry said Monique. They know and they would forgive you." "I envy both of them" said Bonnie "I hope that one day I will find someone that will love me as much as the two of them love each other. I hope to find someone so totally dedicated to me as they are dedicated to each other." "I know, I know, I feel the same way" said Monique "They were very special to each other." The two turned to watch the heavens.

Ron and Kim continued to hold each other. Ron held Kim close to him as he continued to stroke her auburn hair. He buried his face and smelled the wonderful scent of strawberries and her perfume. He reached down and placed his hand under her chin and brought her lips to his...

Kim felt Ron stroking her hair and back. She laid her head against his chest and listened to his heart beating. She felt such a sense of love and belonging. His inhaled his masculine scent, felt him breathe. She felt him guiding her lips and she closed her eyes as their lips touched. She had never been as happy as she was at this moment. Then they were bathed in a brilliant white light.

A brilliant flash illuminated the night sky. For a brief moment there was light around the world. For a short time a new star was in the heavens, a star that represented love and sacrifice just as one had shown 2000 thousand years before. Church bells started to sound out around the world. They would ring 36 times and then pause and ring 36 times more. They continued in this pattern 18 rings for each of the teens honoring each of their 18 years. They rang out in solemn memory of Team Possible. The world was safe. But two wonderful teens were gone. They had sacrificed themselves to save the people of the earth.
At the ball field, there was little sound among the students, parents and citizens of the town that had gathered there. Mr. Barkin went to the flagpole and lowered the flag to half-mast. More and more people were gathering at the impromptu memorial of the two teens. An honor guard from Global Justice arrived on the scene and moved to flank the memorial to Kim and Ron. The PA system crackled as if came on. A student who was a friend to Ron and Kim had brought out his guitar. He wanted to honor his lost friends and began to sing.
