Three months earlier: Midtown Middleton

Kim watched from her binoculars, as her targets began to move suspiciously throughout the employee parking lot of Middleton Convention Center, which was located next to Middleton Stadium. She watched from an office building that was directly across the street from the center. Suddenly a moving truck backed it's way towards the lot. The targets were dressed as clowns and they quickly gathered around the truck. Carelessly they immediately began to unload the contents of the vehicle.

"Got ya" she said smiling as she watched their every movement.

Ron who wasn't paying attention at first, put on his binoculars and looked towards their direction.

"Are you sure its them?"

"Where else would you find clowns Ron?"

"Congress", he said smiling.

"Although I usually love it when you use political humor Ron, the answer is the circus of course. The circus is scheduled to perform at Middleton Stadium tomorrow night. So clowns can move in and out around this block without much suspicion."

"So how do you know these guys aren't real clowns?" He asked

"Check out the boxes they're unloading".

Ron focused his binoculars on one of the boxes and read it's label out loud.

"Danger, this box contains dangerous weapons of mass destruction, that should not be used by anyone at anytime. Hmmm well that's very discernible."

"Discernible"?

"Word a day calender" he replied quickly.

"Oh right; alright we'll just wait here until they unload everything, then crash their little party, totally catching them by surprise."

She looked back across the street "I'd say it'll probably take them around ten minutes to finish unloading." She sat down next to Ron "so we've got some time to kill what do you want to do?"

Ron thought about it for a moment then a smile came too his face " I know, why don't we make out?"

"What"?

"Just an idea"

"You seriously want to make out on this filthy roof?" She asked, glaring at him.

"What? It's what couples do, and spontaneous stuff like that keep a relationship strong."

"Ron is the the next time you have an opportunity to grope me, the only thing you think about."

"Yes" he said quickly without hesitating.

Her face turned bright red " I don't know if I should be flattered by that or worried."

"I think you should be happy my brain is tuned into the KP network twenty four/seven."

She sighed "typical guy, that's all you ever think about. Women aren't as easily stimulated."

"Is that so" said Ron as he moved closer to her " what if I do this?"

He moved in even closer so that now he was breathing on the back of her neck, sending chills down her spine. Then he glided even closer to her and he placed his hands on her shoulders.

"Ron we're on a mission her-" she stopped as his hands moved seductively from her shoulders over her sides and down to her waist to rest there.

"You say something KP"?

"Uh, ooooo" was all she managed to say.

"Ah I thought that's what you said."

Knowing this territory well, he began to lightly tickle her stomach, she hunched over trying to remove his hands. Then he bent her over backwards, his breath brushing against her face. She tried to open her mouth to respond, but he kissed her before she could say a thing. The familiarity of his taste made her temporarily forget about the mission. They continued to kiss, as the sounds of a truck pulling away filled the air. Hearing this Kim woke out of her trance and broke away causing Ron to fall to the floor. She ran to the edge of the roof and peered over the side.

"Alright they're done unloading, let's take these clowns down" she said still huffing and puffing from their impromptu make out session.

"That was perfect timing" Ron still on the floor.

She fired her grappling hook at the roof of the convention center; upon impact it snapped itself to the roof and she attached the other end securely to the building they were on, creating a zip line for them to cross.

"Kim is it me or have we been entering places from the roof, a lot more then usual. You know I'm not really fond of heights" He said as they crossed over to the convention center.

"Well it looks like most of the bottom floors, are being guarded. So entering from the roof is much safer. Besides" she continued as mischievous smile crossed her face. "I like it on top"

"OH!" Ron exclaimed losing his breath "you know what happens to me when you use innuendo KP, oh man where's an oxygen tank when you need one ."

She laughed "I wonder what my dad would do if he heard the things you've got me saying."

"Well unless you want a boyfriend who becomes the first man to discover what's on the other side of a black hole, you keep that kind of talk far, far away from him."

After exploring their surroundings for a few moments, Kim found an entrance by way of the elevator shaft.

"Alright, we'll have to lower ourselves down to the elevator, grab onto me so I can safely lower us with the grappling hook ."

"You don 't have to ask me twice" he said.

She glared at him once again "Ron you do realize we're on a dangerous mission here, so we need to focus."

"You know you have the most gorgeous eyes" he replied ignoring her last comment.

"Ron!"

"Alright, alright, focus yeah I'm a laser beam. Starting right now it's all about the mission."

"Finally" she said exasperated.

As they entered the elevator shaft, he whispered to her "KP you you have got the most intoxicating smell."

"Ron!"

Unknown to them both, there was another who was interested in tonight's activities. A lone figure stood in the dark alleyway of the the building Ron and Kim had just crossed from. The figure wore a dark blue Shinobi Shozoku, typical ninja wear, with a green goggle strapped to his face.

"Sis, I'm going to need you to I.D these people for me," he said while pressing some buttons on his goggle.

"Send me their images" the voice of a young girl replied in his hidden ear piece.

The image of the two individuals crossing into the building, froze on the screen in his goggle. He then enlarged and zoomed in on their faces.

"I'm sending the pic now" pushing another button on his goggle, he transmitted the image.

"Hurry up sis, I need to know who they are now."

"Excuse me David I thought I was your partner not your slave," the girl chided.

"How many times have I told you not to call me by real name, what if someone tunes in to our frequency?"

"Oh I'm sorry, it's my fault you freaking change your name every other week," she retaliated.

"Well it's just that I'm never satisfied with a name, a vigilante's name has got to be cool, my name has to strike fear into the hearts of my enemies."

"So what's your name this week?"

"I was thinking about Dark Justice" he said sheepishly

"Dark Justice, are you serious?"

"What it's original," countered David.

"About as original as the ninja uniform, you've got on."

"What's wrong with a ninja uniform, my whole deal is stealth," he said.

"Whatever you say bro."

"Look I don't need any lip from you okay, just tell me who those guys are. This is the biggest lead on the syndicate I've ever had. The last thing I need is for someone to screw it up."

"Well, I've found out who they are" his sister said.

"FBI, CIA, Global Justice?"

"Actually, your wrong on all counts."

"What?" David cried "are you telling me I have to deal with civilians."

"There civilians alright, but not ordinary ones".

"Huh"?

"Those two are Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable, they've saved the world dozens of times"

"Kim P.. Wait didn't she stop kind of toy attack a few months back."

"You are correct sir, you could say she's a vigilante like you."

"Please, toy attacks?" "She's dealing with the syndicate now, this is way over her head."

"Hey, she's saved the world more times then you have."

"Besides" he continued "saving the world is a guy thing."

"Oh how chauvinistic of you dear brother. It surprises me why you've never had a date before."

"I haven't had a date, dear sister, because I'm too busy fighting crime."

"Really I thought it was because you're a loser."

"Shut up, I'm going to make my move and I need to concentrate. Those two better not get in my way" he muttered to himself as he made way to the center.

Inside the convention hall:

A group of men surrounded by the the crates of weapons in the vast hall huddled around a table as four members of their gang played poker. The loudest and most cheerful of the group was the gang leader. Although the rest of the men had on clown outfits he wore a plain white t-shirt, and jeans, but carried a large feather boa around his neck.

"So this idiot decides to give me a salad, a freaking salad, after I clearly ordered a steak well done."

"Then what happened boss?" Asked one of his henchman.

"So I sez to him I don't care if this is a vegetarian restaurant, I'm Steve Franklin and when I order a steak, I get a steak. So this wimpy waiter brings his equally wimpy supervisor. And do you know what the fool sez to me, he sez "how can you eat animals? They are the innocent creatures of the earth, and have never hurt you, we should be merciful to them."

"So what didja do boss" said another henchman.

"Well, I turn to him and I say listen here you lactose intolerant acrylic fleece sweater maker. you know who first started the practice of eating animals… cmon, I'll give you a second to guess…FREAKING ANIMALS! That right, the bastards have been eating and beating the crap out of each other since the dawn of time. In fact, many of them have weapons attached to their very bodies, to kill other animals."

"You sure told him boss, I remember this one time--".

Steve stopped "did I tell you I was done, did I say the story is done and any other jackass can start talking. Huh, because I don't remember saying that."

The henchman gulped "I'm sorry boss, please go on continue."

"Alright" Steve replied calming down "so the jerk is staring at me speechless, so I get in front of the whole restaurant and continue to tear into them. I sez to the guy, you know why bears/lions/tigers are all endangered? Because they kill people, and eat their flesh that's why. We don't really dig that see, so we've thinned them out a bit. Finally I sez creatures in nature that don't eat meat, get freaken eaten, welcome to the food chain. Then I toss a glass of wine in the guy's face and walk out.

The men burst out laughing "that was great boss" they all say.

"Wait here's the best part, I went back an hour later with some gasoline and I burned the place down."

The hall breaks out into roaring laughter, twice as loud as before.

"Come on boys this is a celebration, with these new weapons, were sure to move up the ranks of the syndicate. The streets of Middleton will once again belong to the Steve Franklin family baby. Come on lets get some music in here fellas."

A henchmen brings in a jukebox "What do you want hear boss?"

"What else, put on some Journey baby."

As the music begins to play, Steve jumps on to the table and begins to sing.

"Just a small town girl. Living' in a lonely world. She took the midnight train. Going' anywhere. Just a city boy. Born and raised in South Detroit. He took the midnight train
Going' anywhere".

"We'll show that stupid syndicate that we deserve some damn respect," Steve addressed his men out as they cheered him on.

"Working' hard to get my fill. Everybody wants a thrill. Paying' anything to roll the dice. Just one more time. Some will win. Some will lose. Some were born to sing the blues. Oh, the movie never ends. It goes on and on and on and on."

Suddenly a large round object hits the jukebox destroying it.

"Is that a bowling ball"? Asked Steve.

"Uh yes sir, the gang uh started bowling while you were away."

"Alright, but who knocked out the tunes".

"That would be me."

Steve looked towards the fire exit to find a red haired girl, and a freckle faced blond coming through the fire exit.

"Don't we have anybody standing guard" Steve cried.

"Oh don't worry about those guys, they've been taken cared of," said Ron nonchalantly.

"Really" said Steve "so uh who hell are you?"

"Uh sir If I may" Steve bent his ear over to the henchman who spoke up.

"Those two are Kimberly Possible and Ronald Stoppable, they're number five on the syndicate's list of people to avoid."

"Are you serious, how did they find us."

"Well" Kim called out "when you have your goons rob Middleton weapon labs, tell them to change costumes."

Steve lifted his hand to his face "you guys robbed the labs with the same costumes you're wearing now." Most of his henchman diverted their eyes to the ground "What part of SECRET HIDEOUT don't you idiots understand!"

Steve exhaled deeply "well you get what you pay for I guess."

He reached for the closest crate and pulled out a large weapon "nice, rapid fire laser cannon".

He pointed the gun at Kim "well girl you crashed the wrong party, but I'd be happy to give you a parting gift."
