Chapter 3 - That's One Genius Too Many (07.18.03)

"What do you want with me?" Professor Utonium asked, immediately on the defensive.

"I need your help," Drakken responded. "I'm a scientist looking for a place to
stay while I create a top secret project that will revolutionize the world as we
know it!"

"Really?" The professor was genuinely intrigued. "And what's your name?"

"People call me... Doctor Drakken!"

The lights in the market flickered on and off, a pickle jar breaks apart after
being dropped on the ground, and a baby was heard crying loudly. Professor
Utonium scratched his head curiously, but he quickly blew any hunches about
Drakken off.

"Funny... you don't look like a scientist."

"I don't look like a scientist, Professor Utonium? Then how do you explain my
blue face?"

"You could've painted it. And how do you know my name?"

"Never mind that! Are you going to let me stay with you while I work on my
project?"

"Well, I guess. I don't see the harm in that."

"Good," Drakken smirked. "I'll drop by your house tonight!"

"Do you need the address?"

Utonium hadn't even blinked before Drakken had disappeared.

"Strange fellow."

That evening, Professor Utonium was down in the basement, mixing some chemicals
in his laboratory. Upstairs on the first floor, Bubbles was drawing a picture
of a cat while watching Buttercup playing a video game.

"Come on, come on!" Buttercup shouted as she pounded the buttons on her
controller. "Super Nova Beam! Take that, you blob of gelatin!"

"He's sneaking up behind you!" Bubbles exclaimed, pointing to the TV.

"I see him! Take that, pow!"

Meanwhile, Blossom was in the kitchen, getting ready to pour herself a glass of
milk. But as she finally found a clean glass in the dishwasher, the doorbell
rang.

"I got it!" Blossom yelled, taking off for the door.

In an instant, Blossom was at the door. Opening it, she found Doctor Drakken
standing there.

"Hey... you're the guy we saved today!"

Upon hearing their red-headed sister's statement, Bubbles and Buttercup raced to
the door to greet Drakken.

"He must have come here to thank us for rescuing him," Buttercup deduced.

"Yeah!" Bubbles added. "People do that a lot!"

"Actually," Drakken said, speaking up, "I'm here to see Professor Utonium. Is
he in?"

"Sure!" Blossom replied. "We'll go get him for you."

The girls flied to the basement as fast as they could.

"Professor!" the trio yelled in unison. "Someone's hear to see you!"

"I'm coming!" he yelled back up.

A minute later, Professor Utonium was at the door, where Doctor Drakken was still
waiting. The girls were right beside him.

"It's about time," Drakken said impatiently.

"Sorry," Utonium apologized. "I was working in the lab. Please... come in!"

Drakken stepped inside and headed for the living room. After closing the front
door, the professor and the girls followed him there, where they all took a seat.

"You don't have any bags?" the professor asked.

"Don't need 'em," replied Drakken. "Besides, I won't be going out much anyway."

"Just who are you anyway?" asked a curious Blossom.

"Girls, this is Doctor Drakken," Professor Utonium said, answering the question.
"I met him in the marketplace this afternoon when he presented an interesting
proposal to me."

"That's correct," Drakken stated. "I'm trying to create a ray gun that, when
a person is hit by it, all of the evil inside of him or her will be sucked out
and absorbed by the beam."

"Sounds complicated... and impossible. How do you plan to go about this?"

Drakken put a hand up. "Wait! I'm not saying another word until you agree to
let me stay with you while I construct the project!"

"Well..."

"Come on, professor!" Blossom cut in. "He's down on his luck!"

"Yeah!" Buttercup added. "Blossom had to snatch him from the evil clutches of
Mojo Jojo today!"

"Couldn't we at least let him stay the night so that he can get better?" asked
Bubbles.

"Well, I guess one night couldn't hurt..."

"Yeah!" the girls and Doctor Drakken cheered.

"Doctor, you and I need to talk about what you plan to do."

"Certainly," Drakken smirked, rubbing his hands together.

Professor Utonium and Doctor Drakken headed for the lab to talk, while the girls
when back to what they were doing beforehand.

"They're playing right into my hands!" Drakken thought to himself. "They don't
suspect that I'm using them to get rid of Kim Possible! And once she's out of
the way, I'll get rid of them! Bwa ha ha ha ha!"

"Doctor, what are you laughing about?"

Doctor Drakken had, by accident, laughed out loud. Professor Utonium had no
idea why, but once again, he blew off any suspicions for the time being.

"I was thinking of this funny joke my assistant told me a few days ago."

"Oh."

The two continued down to the basement as Drakken laughed again... this time, to
himself.

======

(Ooh, that Doctor Drakken is up to no good! And speaking of no good, another
bad guy is trying to escape from Townsville Jail!)

Alarm bells and sirens were ringing, searchlights were being shined all over the
place, and the attack dogs were out and about, all trying to find a prisoner that
had just escaped.

Too bad the escapee was already outside of the grounds, overlooking the jail
from a hill. It doesn't take two shakes of a monkey's tail to figure out who
this was.

"Those accursed Powerpuff Girls will pay!" Mojo shouted, shaking his fists in
anger. "And so will that Doctor Drakken for tricking me into thinking he is
evil! Nobody tricks Mojo Jojo into thinking they are evil, for if they do so,
then they will have to face the wrath of me, Mojo Jojo!"

Mojo laughed out loud maniacally as he ran off. But back in the jail...

"You think that monkey will free us too?" asked one of Drakken's henchmen, all
of which were locked up in two cells facing each other, ten in each.

"Forget about him... our boss will save us!" a henchmen from the other cell
shouted.

======

The following morning at Middleton High School, six yellow school buses had
parked outside in the loading area. The school's sophomore class was busy
loading their packed bags onto a seventh bus, which would carry those alone.
Among the students finishing that task and heading to one of the other buses to
board were Kim and Ron.

"Are you sure there's nothing you can do to switch us?" Ron asked, in a frenzy.

"Ron!" Kim shouted. "There's nothing wrong with being paired with Monique."

"But there's definitely something wrong with you and Bonnie as partners!"

"I can handle Bonnie, Ron. I've done it numerous times before. It's no big."

Suddenly, Monique appeared, sneaking up behind Ron and covering his eyes.

"Guess who?"

"Um... Mr. Barkin?"

"Not even close," Monique said as she removed her hands from his eyes.

"What'd you do that for?"

"If we're gonna be partners, then we might as well make the best of it! After
all, you've hung out with me before!"

"Yeah, only when KP's around!"

"I'm still going to be here," Kim said. "That is, if Bonnie will let me."

"Just turn it around on her, girl!" Monique exclaimed. "Instead of her trying
to catch you in an embarrassing trap, catch her in one!"

"I don't want to do that unless I have to. And if Bonnie knows what's good for
her, I won't have to."

The conversation ended there, as the trip's main teacher chaperone, the
brown-haired administrator/substitute teacher, Mr. Barkin, started shouting out
to the students.

"Alright, people, listen up! It's almost oh-nine hundred hours! If we're going
to make it to our destination on time, we need to start boarding the buses now!
So, let's move people!"

As per Mr. Barkin's instructions, the kids started getting onto the buses. Kim,
Ron, and Monique were getting on the same bus.

"So, what's the deal with this Townsville anyway?" Ron asked.

"It's a big city that feels like a small town," Kim replied. "We're supposed
to be doing some community service project with local kindergardeners."

"We're dealing with little tykes?" Monique asked. "That is so cool!"

A familiar beeping tune filled the air. Immediately, everyone on the bus that
had a cell phone went to answer it. But in reality, the beeping was coming from
the Kimmunicator, a device that a ten-year old supergenius named Wade created in
order to keep track of requests for help on Kim's website.

"What's the sitch?"

Wade's face appeared on the screen, as he broadcasted from his bedroom, as always.
Ron and Monique also got close so they could see him as well.

"You're not gonna believe this!" Wade exclaimed.

"Try us," challenged Kim.

"Well, okay. Townsville is known for being attacked and terrorized by evil
scientists, prank-loving gangsters, and hot-tempered country bumpkins, just to
name a few."

"Great," remarked Kim sarcastically, "And I thought I was going to get away from
fighting evildoers for a few days."

"But you'll never guess who was involved in an attack there last night."

Wade pressed the 'P' key on his keyboard, as the screen changed to a non-audio
feed from a local newscast from last night. The trio watched as a streak of
pink light flew out of the cockpit of the jellyfish robot and landed on the
ground. The streak of light was actually Blossom, who was putting down...

"Drakken?" Kim stated in shock.

"Man, he gets around!" Ron noted, not noticing that Rufus had climbed out of
his pants pocket and was climbing up his shirt to Ron's right shoulder.

The tape ended, as the signal returns to Wade's live feed.

"I can't seem to figure out what Drakken was doing there, but the reports said
that he was saved after being kidnapped by Townsville's resident mad scientist."

"You can't have a town without a mad scientist," Ron said. "It's in the rulebook
for cities that have heroes."

"You're joking, right?" Monique asked, not believing him.

"Who saved him?"

"Well Kim, they're a group of superheroes called The Powerpuff Girls."

Wade booted up a picture of the girls on-screen.

"Those three?" Kim asked. "But they're so..."

"Young!" finished Ron. "They look like toddlers!"

"Toddlers with superpowers," deduced Kim. "How did they get those powers, Wade?"

"You'd better sit down for this one," Wade said. "These origin stories take
awhile to tell."

"Now would be a perfect time for a commercial break," wished Ron. "If only we
knew how to get one of them..."
