A date that will live in infamy.


"YES!" Ron Stoppable said, grinning from ear to ear, as he got off the celphone (just barely avoiding the giant robot monkey that was heading for the LA Museum's "History of Monkey Magic" exhibited.

"ZITA SAID YES, KP! WE'RE GOING ON A DATE!"

"Focus, Ron!" Kim shouted as she ducked another Monkey Ninja.

"Oh, right," Ron said, and than abruptly stumbled back, over the exhibit Screaming, he lashed out to grab something…

And hit the emergency fire sprinkler control. Water filled the room…the robot monkey sparked, fell over and shut down. The monkeys squealed in annoyance…and Monkey Fist glared at them both.

"How dare you do this!" He said, back flipping away to the entrance, his formal tuxedo contrasting with his hands and feet.

"I'm ready for you!" Kim said.

"Well, you'll just have to wait." He said, reaching out and brushing himself off. "I have a wine tasting today, and if this gets wet I'll have to have it dry cleaned again. Good day!" He turned and left. "Monkey Ninjas…follow me! We still have to pick up the cheese and glasses."

"Oh no you don't!" Kim said, as Ron grabbed her.

"KP… I have to get back…for my date!"

"Can't you just teledate like you did last time?"

"Reality Check KP… this is a real date." He paused, "With Zita… BOOYAH!"

Kim looked over as the Monkey Ninjas were also leaving… some of them glaring at her as they tried to wring their uniforms out. She could get them and… Kim felt a sneeze coming on.

Heck with it. Monkey Fist could wait and in any case he probably wouldn't get into too much trouble at a wine tasting.

"OK Ron… let me guess, you want me to cash in a favor… in a passenger jet this time."

"BOO YAH!"


The Evil Lair.

"Shego!" Drakken shouted in Evil (or stupid) joy. Shego sighed and put away her crossword puzzle. Actually, she was supposed to be taking Drakken's speech down, but she had discovered that all of his rants were the same, just change the proper names and there you were.

"Yes, Dr. D?"

"Behold my newest acquisition!" He said, and held out a vial.

"What is it?"

"A mutant mosquito." Drakken said, "the henchmen—" he indicated two individuals who were covered in bites, "—recovered it from a small camp outside of Middleton… A camp that surrounded a lake full of toxic substances—they thought they cleaned it all up…but now, I have found the last repository of the mutagenic soup that once lay in the lake of Wannaweep!" Shego had been drinking a coke, and suddenly, Drakken found his face covered in the coke Shego had spewed out at the name.

"Problem, Shego?" Shego's eyes were huge.

"You… you….said….the word…." She got out.

"What word? Wannaweep?"

"AIGH!" Shego screamed, plugging her ears. "Stop saying it! Not that place!"

"Shego…it's a camp…"

"OF EVIL!" She returned. "When I was nine, mom made me go for a summer… it was right before the comet hit…and…and…. There were mosquitoes…big…terrible…glowing eyes…and things…in the dark…." Shego did exactly what she'd done on that terrible day, so long ago.

"Um….Shego." Drakken said, "Super villains aren't supposed to curl up in the corner and start sucking their thumbs." He paused, "Except for me, that is."

"Um…boss?" One of the henchmen said.

"What is it?"

"The bug… it like…just melted it's way out of the test tube." Drakken looked down, blinked and saw the bug, buzzing away.

"SHEGO! GET IT!"

"AIGH!" Shego jumped away from the flying insect, which noticing the movement buzzed towards here… disregarding her powers, her martial arts ability..and any coherent thought, Shego grabbed the crossword puzzle, and screaming hysterically, frantically waving it back and forth. "GET AWAY GETAWAY GETAWAY!" The bug did…and happily buzzed out the open window.

"My…my mutant mosquito…" Drakken said. Then, looking down at the paper's Shego had discarded, "Hey…These aren't my speeches!"
