Gregory and Zoey's Conversation

Outside the Stoppable home, Fiske asks, "What do you think, Zoey? Do they know more than they're telling?"

Zoey shrugs and replies, "Your guess is as good as mine. From the looks on their faces, I'd say they're trying to get past some ugliness that had happened in the past. And they have seen some ugliness for sure. Even though Kim was smiling at their children, I could tell that she was sad on the inside."

"How's that? Their children were absolutely adorable. And Ron hardly seems to be a buffoon at all. He's a complete contrast to what Monty told me in his letters. It's too bad Ron has no knee at all. For I would love to see him fight using Tai Cheng Pek Quar. Monty told me of the times he had been defeated by Ron, even though he was very afraid of monkeys."

Zoey kinks an eyebrow and asks, "How does a teenager become afraid of monkeys? They're fun to watch."

Fiske replies, "According to Monty's first letter to me, bad camp experience. Something to do with a cabin and the camp mascot. A chimpanzee was apparently the cause of Ron's monkey issues. Even though chimps are part of the ape family."

Zoey shakes her head in sympathy as the two people return to their rental car, intent on observing the family's comings and goings. Fiske reenters the car and sits in the passenger seat, allowing Zoey to sit in the driver's seat. He has gotten used to her driving, even though he could drive just as well. His skills were sorely lacking though, like chasing and evading hostile parties.

They sit in silence for fifteen minutes when Zoey breaks the silence. "How sure are you that Ron and Kim know more than they're letting on anyways? They seem to have settled down from their globe-trotting days ever since Ron's injury. And also their children won't give them time to go on adventures anyways. So what's the point in this? Let's just concentrate on finding Street Hawk and get his side of it."

Fiske chuckles and replies, "When Monty disappeared, he included that Ron was injured saving her life. He realized that even though he was hurt, he still wouldn't let anything bad happen to her. All that changed when Street Hawk came along. According to his last letter to me, Monty told me that a man on a high-tech motorcycle entered the scene. He effectively took Team Possible's place."

Zoey puts it together and she says, "Street Hawk appeared about two weeks after Ron's injury. You don't suppose it's someone that Ron knows personally, do you?"

Fiske shrugs and replies, "Like you said Zoey. Your guess is as good as mine."

Zoey snickers and returns to a newspaper clipping she had removed. This one from the obituaries. 'Yori Ashemi, of Japan, died in Middleton, Colorado five days ago. She died at the Middleton General Hospital. She was in the company of teen heroine Kim Possible and received a visit from the mysterious motorcycle vigilante Street Hawk. Miss Ashemi died from infections that Doctors treated to the best of their abilities. However, the infections had spread too far into her body, rendering her unable to stay alive. She is survived by her friends and classmates in Japan and a special friend Ron Stoppable. Ron was in Japan during an exchange program where he had met Yori. Details are still sketchy, but Authorities suspect foul play in Miss Ashemi's death. However, Street Hawk had been ruled out as a suspect.'

Zoey sighs and says, "It's too bad that Miss Ashemi is no longer alive. I'm sure she can understand our curiosity as to what had happened." Fiske nods in agreement as he leans his head back on the headrest, intent on taking a slight nap.

As he does so, Zoey can only chuckle lightly and shake her head. She then turns her attention back to the Stoppable's house when she sees Kim, Ron and their triplets leave the house and get into separate vehicles, Ron helping Kim strap the car seats in before getting into his pickup. Intrigued, Zoey turns on the ignition and proceeds to follow the family, as discreetly as possible. Little does she realize that they've already been made.
