CHAPTER 6: TRIALS
Kim awoke the next morning with a yawn, and happily sniggle closer to her boyfriend, who had his arm around her waist, snoring loudly. She was about to fall back to sleep when the fimilar beeping of the Kimmunicator rang. Groogily, she picked it up and switched it on.
"Sitch, Wade?" She yawned, rubbing her eyes.
"Before I tell you, I just wanted to make sure you and Ron had a good time last night." The ten-year old grinned from ear to ear.
Kim narrowed her eyes, and gritted her teeth. "Wade, I just want you to know that if you ever pull something like that again, I will personally call Monique tell her everything that you said about her that one night."
"W-What night?" Wade paled, purely terrified.
"The Kimmunicator was on, Wade." She grinned evilly. "You should be very ashamed of yourself, Genius-boy."
Wade looked like he had seen a ghost.
"Y-You wouldn't!"
"Make one more comment and it's a one-way phone call to Monique." She glared.
"Oh, alright." Wade sighed. "Anyway, the real reason I beeped you was that Drakkens helicopter was spotted heading toward the north-eastern part of Washington."
"What's all the way down there?"
"All I've found is a large, old complex in a remote corner of the state. I'm geussing that's where Drakken and Shego are stopping."
"How do you know?"
"Top security: Self activating laser cannons, hidden traps, even a small mine-feild." He grinned. "Nothing you guys can't handle, though."
"Any idea whats in it?"
"Nope. Must be something big though."
"How's that?"
"What sort of complex would house an indoor mine-feild?"
"Good point. Got us a ride?"
"Yep." He nodded. You'll have a helicopter in about an hour."
"Good. Ron and I will be ready. Keep me posted."
"Will do." And he signed off.
Kim sighed. Now it was time for the REAL test.
Waking up Ron.
"Ron, sweetie?" She asked softly, nudging his arm. The blonde haired boy stirred, but did not wake. She thought for a moment, and then presased her lips to his lightly, and he fell off the bed in surprise.
Suddenly, the freckle faced boy jumped up from behind the bed, a wide grin on his face. "What a beautiful day!" He exclaimed cheerfully, and then looked at Kim. "Ah, Kimila! My lovely, talented, caring grilfriend!" And with one motion, he jumped over the bed and sweeped Kim up, leaning her to the ground, kissing her lovingly and passionately. Kim, although surprised at his actions, happily returned the embrace. When they finally pulled apart, she looked into his eyes and smiled.
"Since when are you so happy?" She asked him.
"Since I laid my eyes on you." He replied, and a moments silence followed before the two burst out laughing.
"That... Was the cheesiest... thing you have ever said!" Kim giggled.
"Yeah, but it seemed like the right thing to say at the time." Ron laughed. "So, what's the sitch?" He asked her.
"Drakken and Shego were spotted heading towards north-east Washington, and our ride should be here in about forty-five minuts, so we should probably change into our mission cloths."
"Right on." He grinned slyly. "Well, if you need any help getting dressed, I'll be happy to assist-" But was cut off by a pillow hitting him full force in the face.
"Ron!" She exclaimed in mock surprise.
"Joking!"
A half-hour later, the couple handed in their roomkey and walked down the main lobby, and along the way, they saw a grumpy looking employee, pushing a box full of deflated volly-balls down the hallway.
"Huh..." Ron eyed the box suspiciosly. "Wonder how that happened. Don't you, Rufus?" He asked, nudging the bulge in his pocket. Strangly, the little rodent looked a bit pale as he saw box.
"Umm..." Rufus was about to say something when a large helicopter appeared from the sky, landing right in front of them.
"That's our ride." Kim pointed out, and hopped on board with him.
"Thanks for the ride, Mr. Stoyanov." Kim thanked the Russian pilot as the helicopter landed.
"Oh, it was my pleasure, Miss Possible!" He replied, as the two teenagers stepped off the helicopter. "It was the least I could do after you saved me from my last helicopter!"
"Oh, it was no big!" Kim smiled. "I'm sure anyone could have landed helicopter with no steering, no rader, and a broken propeller!"
"In a thunderstorm." Ron shuddered, recalling the memory.
"Well, I'd best be off now." Mr. Stoyanov said, looking at his watch. "Best of luck to the both of you!" He waved, and the helicopter flew out of sight.
"He was nice." Ron remarked, as Kim pulled them into the waiting building.
They walked down a long hallway until they reached a locked door. Kim examined it, and pulled out the Kimmunicator.
"Wade." She asked him. "We've got a locked titanium door here. Any suggestions?"
"Look in your pack."
Kim did as she was told, and pulled out a fimilar looking pink comb. She knew it wasn't an ordinary comb, though, as she smiled and place it in the crevise between the wall and the door, and watched the high-tech comb do it's work. There was a slight hissing sound as the door opened slowly, and the teen hero walked in, ready to face the dangers that awaited.
"Oh, c'mon Shego, one more game!" Drakken pleaded. "Please? Two out of three!"
Shego groaned. "Doc, just face it. You're not any good at rock-paper-scissors."
"But this time I have a bullet-proof plan!"
"Does it involve a rock?"
Drakken blinked, and then scowled. "Show off." He mumbled.
She looked out the window of the helicopter. "And besides Doc, we're here-" She stopped short, and then smirked evilly.
"What is it?" Drakken asked, struggling to take a look out the window.
Shego watched as the red-haired brat and her blond boyfriend entered the building. She smiled, landing the helicopter. Drakken started to get out, but Shego stopped him.
"Huh?" He asked, confused.
"Shh." She shushed him, and silently opened the door of the copter. "Why do the work..." She pointed towards the couple, as they opened the titanium door. "When they can do it for us."
Kim took a step forward, and immeadiatly sensed the danger. She halted, as did Ron, and quicly pulled out a pair of red sunglasses, She slipped them on, and saw exactly what she had feared. Deadly laser beams were spread all around the room, making it impossible for any human to walk across unharmed. She smiled as she saw the button that most likely turned the lasers off, at the end of the hall. Well, it would be impossible for a human...
"Oh, Rufus..." She sang sweetly, and the naked mole rats head popped up from her boyfriends pocket.
"Huh?" He squeaked.
"Here's the sitch." She explained to the little rodent. "There are hidden lasers all around this room, and it's impossible for Ron and I to make it across. That where you come in. We need you to run all the way to end of this hall, and push that button on the ground over there. I'm going to stay here and tell you where to go. You think you can pull it off?"
"Hmmm..." Rufus thought, obviosly seeing the risk that was involved.
"There's a grande sized Naco in it for you."
"Deal!" The mole rat squeaked, shaking Kims hand.
"Good. Now stand over there and walk forward about seven steps." She told him, slipping the glasses back on, eyeing the laser closest to Rufus. Rufus did as he was told, and it went on like this until the pink rat reached the end of the hall, stepping on the button proudly. There was one time when Rufus stepped so close to a laser that, if he had even a small coat of fur, it would have been burnt off. Kim saw the lasers flicker for a second, and then disappear completely. She smiled.
"All clear." She heard Ron let out a large sigh of releif.
They walked up the Rufus and patted him on the head. "Good work, buddy." Ron smiled.
"Naco!" Was all the little mole rat could say.
Kim laughed. "One grande sized Naco for Rufus." She said, and led them into the next room.
They never felt the eyes on the back of their heads behind them.
As the walked in the nex room, Kim saw the danger before it even came.
"Move!" Kim cried, pushing herself and Ron out of the way, as the ground where they were just standing erupted in flames, leaving only a smoking crater behind them. She pulled them behind a wall and took cover.
"Self-activating lasers?" Ron panted nerveosly. "Most definetly."
"Be careful." Kim told him, and went to work.
Quite delibratly, she jumped into the middle of the wide, circle-shaped room, getting every one of the six laser cannons focused on her. She saw the cannons aim, and at the exact moment they fired, she backflipped high into the air, on top of the large explosion underneath her, whipping out her most trusted weapon from her pocket: The hairdryer-grappling hook. She took aim in mid-air, and fired at the roof of the high-ceiling room. The hook stuck, and latched into the roof firmly. She swung towards one of the laser cannons, and pushed her feet off of it right when the cannons fired, but Kim moved quickly, and lasers fired at the spot where she had just been, and the cannon where she pushed herself off of exploded into a shower of flaming shrapnel. She repeated the process four more times, desroying five of the six cannons, when she felt herself falling to the ground. One of the lasers had blasted apart the grapple line coming from the hairdryer, and she landed on the ground hard. She picked her head up, and looked at the last remaining laser, aiming at her, ready to fire...
When it blossemed into a big ball of flame.
Bewildered, Kim looked around, and spotted Ron, standing proudly...
Holding her laser-lipstick.
She walked up to him, smiling. "Nice. I didn't think you knew how to use that." She looked at his hand. "Wait a minut, what's that on your fingers... Is that lipstick?"
Ron blushed. "Yeah, I had trouble finding the right lipstick." He grinned sheepishly, stuffing the laser lipstick into Kims pack.
Kim couldn't help but grin as the two of them walked into the next room.
They never heard the silent footsteps behind them.
Walking into the next room, Kim halted. She pulled out the Kimmunicator. "Wade, I need you to tech-scan the room for me."
Wade nodded, and a minut later he returned, looking grim.
"Mine-feild." He nodded.
Kim sighed, and once again pulled out the hairdryer. She gave it a new line, since the last one was burnt off. "Grab on." She commanded, and Ron put his arms around her waist as she fired at the wall opposite of them, and pressed the recoil button. Suddenly, they whizzed through the air, and landed at the wall, safely beyond the minefeild.
"Wonder what this does?" Ron asked, pressing a button on the wall. Suddenly, blue lights appeared all around the room, showing the location of each mine. "Cool." Ron muttered, and walked into the last room with Kim.
"Buffoon." A whisper came from the shadows, but Ron never heard.
Kim started walking into the center of the final room, tensing for any kind of danger. She reached the middle and looked at the object on the pillar in the center. It was a small ZIP disc, and had obviosly not been touched for years.
"This is what we came for?" She whispered, reaching out her hand to grab the disc.
"Wrong!" A raven-haired woman, dressed in a green jumpsuit, jumped in front of her, blocking her path. "This is what I came for!" And green flame erupted from the womans hands.
