Ch. 5 Lucky Chance
"But how?" Ron seemed to have forgotten where he was.
"This, umm, liquid of sorts is mostly used by Guardian Angels," Bernie explained, "it allows for them to not actually having to be right with the person they're watching."
"Oh right, yeah" Ron said not really paying attention any more but scanning the floor for a glimpse of Kim. Ron didn't notice when a new figure entered the room.
"Not him, anyone but him" Bernie moaned
"Hello Bernie! I heard you screwed up real bad this time" came an annoying high pitch male voice. Ron looked up and saw a skinny bold haired man leaning on what seemed to be another doorframe. "That him?" the odd fellow asked.
"This is Ronald, yes," Bernie said in a monotone voice "but I don't know why I should have to explain this to you, Chuck. Clearly you have ways of finding everything out for yourself."
"Umm dudes, sorry to interrupt and all, but I think me and Bernie have to take care of some things, I think" Ron said unsure
"Right, right of course, don't mind me Ronald is it?" Chuck said
"Call me Ron" Ron called back as Bernie had already dragged him out of the room and down a hallway mumbling grumpily.
"Who was that?" Ron asked Bernie once they came to a stop outside a door.
"That was chuck, him and I have been working to earn a spot as a guardian angel. I, well I beat him to it, but as you can see it might not stay that way for long" Bernie told Ron.
"REALLY?" Ron asked surprised "how come?" Bernie's jaw dropped slightly and he stared at Ron in shock. Could this kid really be THAT dense? Bernie pointed at Ron. "What did I- oh, right gottcha" Ron said finally figuring it out. Ron gave him a sympathetic smile.
Bernie sighed "Better get this over with" as he opened the door that they had been standing in front of. Inside there was a club, literally, with loud music, bar tender, and all sorts of people dancing it up. Ron smiled as he looked at the room, and almost squealed when he saw the original creator of Bueno Nacho. Ron then proceeded to run up to the man and shake his hand.
"Oh, wow this is so cool!" Ron said beside himself "I totally love Bueno Nacho, it's just so cool!"
"Ron now is not the time" Bernie said and pulled Ron away.
"Yeah I guess your right" Ron sighed, "but then why are we in a club and not at the head honcho's office?" Bernie laughed at this.
"You don't just get to stroll up and talk to 'the head honcho' you have to make a reservation here just to talk to an advisor!" Bernie told him.
"Right, that makes sense" Ron nodded and tripped over a cocktail waitress. The commotion caused a slick looking man to wander to Bernie.
"Bernie! We need to talk!" the man yelled. Bernie hung his head and followed the man towards one of the back rooms, Ron in tow.
Back on Earth
It had been 3 days since Ron's funeral. Rufus now stayed with Kim, never leaving her side it seemed like. Her brothers had decided that she needed a break from hero work so they teamed up with Wade. Kim smiled to herself as they came home from their first mission, all excited earlier that evening.
She was in her room resting on her bed. A picture of her and Ron lay in her lap. It was the first time she was able to look at it and not cry. She knew Ron wouldn't want her to act so depressed, so she was working hard at trying to make a new routine of her life. She was going back to school the next day; Monique said she'd stop by for breakfast. She's no Ron, but at least I still have her…
Kim felt like crying again, but stifled it as she looked down at Rufus sleeping on her bed. Wish I could join ya in dreamland lil buddy she thought to herself as she got out of bed. She glanced at the clock and it was still semi early, only 9:45. The only reason she'd gone to bed so soon was because she wanted to not look too horrible at school. It was going to be hard enough, but she sure didn't want her appearance to add to it. I'll just go for a walk, that'll get me ready for bed…
She already knew where she was headed the second her feet touched the pavement. With a flower and an envelope she headed for the graveyard. She read the words on his tombstone, though she had already memorized them.
"Here lies Ronald A. Stoppable, 1987-2005, Loving Son and Friend, honored side kick, you won't be forgotten"
"But you will be missed" Kim said to herself. She wanted to add it, but there hadn't been enough room. She breathed in the cold night air and shuddered. "I brought this for you" she started timidly "its silly I know, but I couldn't sleep, not without knowing you had this" she crouched down and laid the envelope and flower against the headstone
"I love you" she kissed the tips of her fingers and placed them on his engraved name before getting up and leaving.
Ron found himself standing in an office. Baby blue walls, and pictures of numerous famed deceased people was the only thing that made it not look like a board meeting room.
"Have a seat Ron" the man's voice was cool, and smooth "we need to have a chat, you I and Bernie."
Bernie had been standing sulking in a corner tell his name was mentioned. "Paul I can explain, its, umm well you see it, umm, its just a mist-" Bernie started
"A mistake?" Paul cut him off calmly "really? You don't say? OF COURSE IT'S A MISTAKE!" Paul shouted. Bernie winced. Paul sighed heavily and ran his hand through his hair "I had faith in you Bernie, I knew you were ready, but this? I'm your friend, but now I have no choice. You are officially re assigned no job"
"I understand Paul, I'm…sorry" Bernie's voice cracked a little "but the boy." Both angels turned to look at Ron, who was staring back.
"He's better off then you are right now. He has a chance, a lucky chance to go back" Paul began. Bernie smiled, so did Ron.
"BOO-YAH!" Ron yelled "Thank-God for lucky chances right?" Both angels gave glances and Paul mouthed 'literally' causing Bernie and Paul to chuckle. Ron was still bouncing up and down yelling happy things to himself. I'm coming back KP, I'm a coming!
