Kim Possible and Street Hawk: Confrontation p 11

Outside the House and a Bank Robbery

Outside the house, Kim, James and Amanda are talking about one subject, Ron. "So honey, where's Ronald at?"

"He went to get a present for Kimmie. By the way, he said he'd meet you at CC so you can examine it for yourself, Kimmie." Kim blushes and realizes her Mother knows about Ron at the same time.

She then asks, "Mom, can I talk to you alone? Woman to woman?"

Amanda smiles and replies, "Of course, Kimmie. Let's go to the mall so we can connect." Kim nods and they get into the Expedition. Amanda says, "This is a big vehicle, Kim. How do you manage to get in and out without falling down?"

"Lots and lots of practice, Mom." Amanda's laughter can be heard as the two drive away, not seeing Fiske grab James and force him into his car.

As Kim drives, she asks, "How long have you known, Mom?"

Amanda smiles and replies, "Since the X-ray was done. Of course, I only suspected as much, but didn't want to say anything without proof. As you are probably aware, the X-ray machine in Upperton is state of the art, connected to a computer server system. Where there's servers, there's Wade. I saw the X-ray that was done the night of Ron's injury. It had shown the screws still intact. Thing is though, with Medical screws these days, they take a year to disintegrate. He's been like this for how long now? About two years."

Kim nods and says, "Just about, Mom."

She then looks at Kim and asks, "How involved are you, Kimmie? I mean just how deep are you in this?"

Kim smiles and says, "I'm part of it. Sand Hawk, nice to meet you, Mrs. Dr. Possible." She then brings up a blindfold and says, "Put this on, Mom. We're going to Command Center. You'll be able to meet the others in our crew." She then gets a look in the rear-view mirror and says, "Dad's car is behind us and Baron Fiske is with him. It's a good thing we shook his friend on the way to the Space Center."

Amanda puts the blindfold on and asks, "Do you think he's hostile, Kimmie? I don't want to see you hurt."

Kim giggles and replies, "Like I said, Mom. I'm Sand Hawk. I've survived worse odds before. And that was long before Ron was hurt."

Amanda mulls this over and asks, "Who's Baron Fiske?"

"Monkey Fist's brother." She then gets out the Kimmunicator and brings up Wade. "Wade, we have a major sitch. The equation, Mom, she knows about Ron. Add in Baron Fiske with Dad, they're following us. Throw me into the equation and we have a major-league cluster-nuck. Get hold of Ron if you can and tell him to meet us at the air field if you please."

Wade chuckles and replies, "You got it, Kim. No problem." Wade signs off and gets on the horn to Command Center. "Norman, we've got problems. Kim's Mom is onto Ron and Baron Fiske is following her with Kim's Dad in tow. Possible hostage situation."

Norman replies, "We'll get on it, Wade. How did she get onto Ron though? It's just not possible."

"You know the family motto; 'Anything's possible for a Possible.' She must have suspected it for a good while now. In any case, they're heading for the air field right now. You may want to send Ron to help."

"I'll get on it, Wade. Thanks." Norman then turns his attention to the monitor when he sees Ron's Flare-Side reach Command Center's perimeter. When Ron pulls into the building, Norman says, "Ron, Baron Fiske has your Father-in-Law and your Mother-in-Law is onto you. Has it always been this screwy for your families?"

"Pretty much. Wait a minute. Mr. Dr. P. is with Fiske? He must have taken him hostage. Where are they at now?"

"The air field. If you hurry, you may be able to use the memory blankers on your in-Laws before they talk too much."

"We used the memory wipe gas on them last month. How could she have gotten onto me?"

Norman shrugs as Ron races to the suit rack and proceeds to suit up while Norman opens the motorcycle's bay. Ron has no time for pleasantries as he comes out of the changing room five minutes later and gets onto the cycle. Once he takes off, Norman opens the outer doors and Ron clears them, like clockwork.

He then enters the clearance code for Hyperthrust and counts him down. "Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. Hyperthrust!" Once the jets start burning, Street Hawk starts speeding toward the air field, not knowing things are about to take an interesting turn.

On the other side of town, Zoey is in front of the Middleton Bank, clearly frustrated. She had lost sight of Kim's Father's car in this area and she had driven around trying to find it. She had then stopped in front of the Bank to gather her thoughts when something unexpected happens.

One minute, everything is nice and quiet, lulling Zoey to take a nap. Next thing she knows, all hell is breaking loose. Five men armed with guns are running out of the Bank with another man right behind them. A man dressed in feathers. Zoey is barely able to contain her laughter until she sees the men coming right at her and the van in front of her.

The feathered man gets into her car and says, "Drive. Aviarius commands you."

Zoey can't hold it in any longer as she lets out a peal of loud laughter, saying, "What kind of bird-brained name is that? I've heard better, you turkey!" She then laughs some more until she feels a gun at her side. She then looks over at Aviarius and feels something she had never felt before. Anger and fear.

Aviarius then says, "If you won't cooperate, I'll just blow you away right here and now. But since you're very attractive, I'll give you a chance to make amends to me. For now, drive." Zoey can only nod as she puts the rental into drive and pulls away from the scene, clearly wishing that someone would come along and help her before she has to 'make amends' to the bird-brain.
