2 years later…… Chapter 1

Ron Stoppable was bench-pressing a 130kg weight when Wade Load, resident computer genius, now at the age of 15 and a little under six-foot (he had a growth spurt) called him on his communicator.

"What's the sitch Wade?" Ron growled at the device

" Shego again Ron, she and Drakken are in England, and she's trying to locate the secure vault of the centurion project."

"Dammit why can't we keep those two behind bars! Does Shego have like an 'escape from jail' button on her jump suit?''

"I've got you a lift from Senior Senior Junior, and Ron….."

"Yes?" Ron replied, cocking an eyebrow at the mountain of a boy sitting in front of a flashing computer screen

"Kim might be there, if I can find her"

He winced visibly, "Don't I can handle this without her getting hurt."

"But-" Ron cut him of sharply, turning the communicator off, he didn't want to here that girl's name again, and he never thought he would feel that way two years ago.

He pulled himself of the bench, Ron had grown in many ways since he and Kim broke up, he was much broader of shoulder, and far more muscled than before his last growth spurt had left him at about six-foot two. He had become an obsessive in training for martial arts, not only had he unlocked his mystical monkey power through training in Tai-Ching-Pek-Wa he had also mastered wing-chun kung-fu, jujitsu, karate and taekwondo.

Two hours later Ron found himself soaring over the Atlantic sitting next to Senior Senior Junior. SSJ had turned from the semi-dark side after his father had died in an unfortunate electromagnet incident, he was now following his dream as a hair care product model, in fact he and Ron were good friends now.

"My friend, are you sure you do not want to land before you leave the plane this time?"

"No Junior, I'm good, I'll eject in a minute-"

"Ah no-no-no you cannot battle Shego with your hair like that," Junior squealed, suddenly brandishing a pot of Le-Goop hair gel and styling his friend's hair. "Ok that will have to do" He said sighing melodramatically " Oh by the way, tell Shego I miss her instruction, she knows where to find me right, right" He said winking, and nudging Ron

Ron allowed himself a small smile "I'll remember that Junior" before getting out of his seat, walking over to the hatch and sliding it open

"Good luck Ron Stoppable" Junior shouted over the howling winds

Ron just signalled a thumbs up and jumped out of the plane.

Minutes later Ron peeled of his jump suit, surveying the landscape around him with careful eyes. He was in an open field next to a roaring motorway. Wade had briefed him on the sitch in the jet, the town was called Bexley, a small town located in the south-east of England. It was the perfect hiding place for the centurion project, who would suspect it was here? Of course Drakken did now, after a bit of hacking Ron suspected. The first time Drakken had encountered the centurion project, it was on Kim's wrist as a small band, it reacted to stress and formed armour if its wearer was realising adrenaline. In that mission, Kim had proved she could lie, how could Ron know she was so good at it so many years later? Shaking his head, Ron brought himself back to reality and started to walk towards the little town of Bexley.

Ron Stoppable strolled through the streets of Bexley, trying to look at home there. He walked past a tall blonde boy, about 15 years old with a large bag hoisted over his shoulder that looked as if it contained cricket bats or tennis racquets.

"Excuse me, do you know where Beths School is?" Ron asked the boy politely

"Oh yeah, I go there. Its just down this road, you turn left and its right in front of you" The boy said in a surprisingly deep voice, with a rich English accent.

"Thanks" Ron said and turned his back on the boy.

"No problem, good luck with the centurion project Ron"

"What!" Ron turned round shocked, but the boy wasn't there, he had disappeared. "Strange" Ron muttered to himself, shaking his head. The English were strange.

Minutes later,Ron walked down a grey concrete drive, the whole school reeked of grey, it was totally colourless on the outside. Ron easily wall kicked over a large gate, and found himself in the school. It was totally empty, being a Saturday and Ron wondered where Shego was. What a strange place to hide the centurion project Ron thought, for a top secret agency to hide it in a school. Ron heard a crash,snapping him out of his thought,it sounded like it came from a large grey building that had its doors flung open, and he ran towards it.
