After lunch, Kim, Ron, Bonnie, Tara, and Yori filed into the conference room, and Wade appeared on the monitor.
"Sensei had a vision," said Ron without preamble. "It wasn't very clear, but there is a lot of danger connected to it. Danger to the entire world."
Rufus agreed vigorously.
Yori nodded. "There were colors connected to it-- black, green, and blue."
"Well, those colors are representative of two people we know," said Kim, "Shego and Dr.
Drakken. But Shego's... dead, and Drakken's been in prison for the last three years."
"Ah... that's not quite right," said Wade, and everyone looked at him.
"I found out just this morning that Drakken was assisted in escaping by what was probably a CeCe robot wearing Shego's colors two and a half years ago," he said.
"Two and a half years ago? Why are you just finding out now?" asked Ron.
"I run a program that keeps tabs on any mention of the supervillians in the media. But apparently this was kept from the news, and the reports were filed in the wrong directory, one I never access. This was just corrected by someone at the prison," he said.
Kim nodded. "Strange that we haven't heard from him since then. He's usually too impatient to wait very long before trying another take-over-the-world scheme."
"I'm looking into it," said Wade, "But it will be some time before I get any answers."
"Thanks, Wade," said Kim.
"Who is this... Dr. Drakken and Shego?" asked Yori.
"I'll send you the files to read later, Yori," said Wade.
"I thank you, Load-san," was the reply.
Wade blushed and nodded.
"What else about this vision?" asked Bonnie.
Yori pulled a piece of paper from her pocket and unfolded it. "This is what Sensei wrote about it.
I saw the whole world, quite beautiful and peaceful. Then suddenly green and black things appeared, and spread out over the earth. Fires and screams of pain soon followed, and the sky turned black with smoke. I had the feeling of hopelessness and dispair, as something blue appeared and spread out over the world. I had the impression it was laughing.
I was crying in my sleep, for the world was ending. But then, hope reappeared. Five things,
one red, one brown, two yellow, and one black stood against the green and black things. Very small against their infinite numbers.
And there the dream ended. I do not know the end of it. Only that there is hope."
There was silence as everyone mulled this over.
"Sensei feels certain Team Possible is connected to this," said Yori, "And also that it was vital I be here."
"May I see that, please?" asked Tara, reaching for the paper.
Yori passed it to her, and Tara sat reading it, brow wrinkling in concentration. Fortunately for Tara, it was written in both Japanese and English.
"Any ideas on what those colors besides green, black, and blue mean?" asked Bonnie.
Tara looked up. "I think it's us," she said.
"What do you mean?" asked Kim.
"Red, that's you, Kim. Brown is Bonnie, yellow is me and Ron, and black is Yori," she answered.
They all looked at each other.
"Hair color," said Bonnie, "Tara, I think you're right!"
"It does fit," said Wade, "Too well to be just coincidence. Let's go with that until we find out differently."
"I guess green and black would be the CeCe robots," said Ron, "And the laughing blue is Drakken."
"So it seems the answer to this vision is that Drakken is going to try and take over the world with an army of CeCe robots, and we are all that stand in the way," said Kim.
"Robots? How can we prepare for that?" asked Bonnie.
"I'll write a report of everything I remember about the CeCe I fought on that volcano," said Kim, "That will give at least an idea of what we're up against."
"Sensei is shipping the Lotus Blade and my fans and other weapons, as we couldn't bring them on the plane. They should arrive at Ron-kun's home soon," said Yori.
"Kim, I think we're going to need help on this one," said Wade. "Let's consult with Dr. Director."
"The vision didn't indicate any sort of other army," said Yori, "Sensei would have written it."
"We can always be wrong about the interpretation," said Bonnie. "Just because we have one that makes sense, it doesn't mean it's right."
"Global Justice uniforms are blue," Kim pointed out, "Maybe that was the blue in the vision,
not Drakken."
"That is possible," admitted Yori, reluctantly.
"Wade, Dr. Director, if she's available, please and thank you!" said Kim.
The monitor screen split, and Dr. Director appeared.
"What can I do for Team Possible this afternoon?" she asked.
"Dr. Director, this is--" said Kim, indicating Yori.
"Yori!" said Dr. Director, "Didn't expect to find you there! How is Sensei?"
"He is well, and sends his greetings," was the reply. Yori stood and bowed.
"You know each other?" asked Ron. After working with her closely for six months, Ron thought he knew Yori fairly well. But apparently his friend still had some surprises.
Dr. Director smiled. "Yori was kind enough to handle some... problems for GJ."
"It was my honor to assist," Yori replied.
"How do your studies progress?" asked Dr. Director.
"I have graduated, and will be with Team Possible for the foreseeable future," she answered.
"Congratulations! The world will be safer, now!" Dr. Director answered.
Yori lowered her eyes modestly, and blushed.
"Well, this will make things easier to explain," said Kim, and launched into a retelling of the vision and possible meanings.
"I see..." said Dr. Director, "You were right to call me. GJ will definately want to be involved in this one."
"Thank you, ma'am," said Kim.
"Finding Drakken should be our top priority," said Dr. Director, thoughtfully.
"I'm working on it now," said Wade, "I'll let you know when I have something."
"If this is to be a joint operation, you'll need to coordinate your efforts with my intelligence people," said Dr. Director.
Wade looked at Kim, who nodded.
"All right," said Wade. "I'll get in touch with them."
"Let me inform them first. I'll drop you an email when I have."
"Fine. In the meantime, I'll keep looking," said Wade.
Kim looked around the table. "Anyone else need to say something?"
There was silence.
"Then this meeting's adjourned!" said Kim.
