Chapter 4: Time Goes On

The Tweebs went into the living room with Ron when Kim was answering the door. Ron, Jim, and Tim all sat on the couch as Rufus remained perched on Ron's shoulder, and started to watch "the Most Extreme." Kim hated that show. It gets really annoying after a while. She went by the TV's cable box and pressed the power button that turned the Television off.

"Hey!!!" All of the boys shouted. "We were watching that!" Tim yelled out.

"Well too bad!" Kim put her hands on her hips. "Besides... we're going to go in, like... 45 seconds!"

Jim and Tim pouted as Ron got up from the couch and stretched. Then he walked up to Kim, who was in the middle of the entrance between the kitchen and the living room. "So............... Who died anyway?"

Kim frowned at Ron's lack of respect. "Professor Ramesh.... One of my dad's old friends from high school and college."

"Oh! Gotcha......" Ron looked up, thinking for a moment. "Was he that Indian guy?"

"...Yeah...." Kim replied, looking up the staircase to see if her parents were coming yet.

Then Mr. and Mrs. Possible came walking down the stairs. Mrs. Possible had on a very nice black skirt with a short sleeved white top and a black shawl over it. Mr. Possible had on a suit with black pants, a black vest, a deep blue tie, and a white shirt underneath.

"Lookin sharp Mr. and Mrs. Dr. P." Ron commented, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.

"Well thank you Ron." Mrs. Possible replied politely.

Mr. Possible grabbed the keys that were on the coffee table and walked towards the door. "Come on, let's go. We only have five minutes to go there and get out seats!"

"Relax dear." Mrs. Possible held onto his arm. "You know that the real ceremony doesn't begin until ten minutes after."

"Well, let's just hope that's true!" Mr. Possible commented as he walked out of the door.

"Come on kids!" He opened the door to the car, letting Jim and Tim go in first. Then Kim and Ron followed. "Allright let's go." Mr. Possible stepped on the gas started to drive the car towards the funeral home.

"MAN!! That place was SOO boring!!!" Ron yelled out, throwing his hands in the air.

Rufus took a bite of his taco and nodded his head. "Majorly boring!"

Kim sighed as she took a bite of her chicken burrito. They decided to stop by Bueno Nacho after the funeral. Besides, she promised Ron to do so anyway. "Yes, I do agree.... It was sort of... kind of... all right fine! It was boring! ...But at least we were there to support my dad."

"Yeah, yeah.... I gotcha...." Ron smirked as he looked at Kim from across the table. "Man! That priest was so boring! I mean, you couldn't even understand a word he was saying!!"

"U-huh...." Kim's eyes started to close as she put her burrito down on her plate. Her lack of sleep was starting to kick in as she listened to Ron drone on and on about how boring the service was. She rested her head on her hands as she started to slowly drift away.

"Kim?" Ron asked as her Kimmunicator went off. "KIM!!!"

"What!?" Kim quickly opened her eyes wide and sat up straight. "I'm up! I'm up!"

Ron and Rufus stared at her for a moment in bewilderment. "Man, you need some sleep!"

"Yes, I know! I was up practically up all night yesterday." Kim replied as she put her beige bag on her lap.

"Your Kimmunicator 's goin off..." Ron pointed out as he scratched the back of his neck.

Kim unzipped the bag and smiled bashfully. "So it is...." She put her hand in and dug through her things to get to the Kimmunicator. Then she grabbed it and brought it out. "Hey Wade...." She sighed, not really wanting to go on any missions at the moment. "What's the Sitch?"

"Monkey Fist is in the Space Center stealing some very important, classified information, and trying to take Frederick." Wade replied resting his head on the back of his hand. "...Again..."

"Man! What is it with these villains wanting to know confidential information these days!!? Can't they just wait until the President announces it like everybody else!!?" Kim yelled out aggravated.

"Well, you better stop him before he gets away with the files." Wade warned.

Kim sighed and rubbed her eyes. "Fine...." She picked up her bag and got up from the restaurant booth. "Kim out." She turned off the Kimmunicator and slipped it back in her bag. Then she tugged Ron's shirt. "Come on let's go..." Kim was already tired from fighting off Drakken and Shego earlier today. She would need a rest once she's done with Monkey Fist.

Rufus slipped into Ron's pocket as he got up and followed Kim out through the door. The Space Center wasn't too far, and they would be able to walk over there on foot.

Monkey Fist grabbed Frederick by the wrist and pulled the simian with him as he walked towards the desk. He bent over and started to search through the draws as the little monkey struggled to free himself. Frederick had just came back from his mission and Monkey Fist took that opportunity to kidnap him.... Or should I say, monkeynap him.

Monkey Fist pulled out a file that was labeled E.L.E. and held it high in the air triumphantly. "Yes! Finally!" He turned around and held the file close to his chest, securing it in his firm grip.

"STOP IT RIGHT THERE, MONKEY FIST!!!!" Kim yelled as she ran through the door and stood in a Kung Fu stance. Ron came up behind her and started to perform numerous unperfected Kung Fu stances.

"Kim Possible!!!!" Monkey Fist hollered as he tightened his grip to both Frederick and the file.

"Drop the little file thingy!!.... And Frederick too." Ron waved to Frederick even though it was an inappropriate time. "Hey Frederick! Kool you're back from your trip!? Sweet!"

Kim raised and eyebrow as she glanced at Ron. "Ron... I don't really think this is a good time to talk to Frederick. At least wait until after we take care of Monkey Fist.

Monkey Fist glanced to the left, waiting for Kim and Ron to be done. Ron turned towards Monkey Fist and looked around, expecting to see at least 6 monkey ninjas. "So where are your ninjas?"

The English lord sighed. "Well..... I promised them a break, and apparently this was the time that they decided to take it...!" Monkey Fist frowned. Then he thought to himself. 'Why hadn't I simply just put off the mission until they were done!? I could have! But no, I had to proceed with the mission as soon as possible! Urg! I don't even have a free hand! Maybe it was a bad idea kidnapping Frederick.... I'll just take the file and run.'

Kim gasped as she read what was on the file. "E.L.E...." She whispered as she put her guard up, expecting a fight. Even though she stood ready, thoughts ran though her mind that caused her to loose focus.

Monkey Fist pulled off a fake evil smile, making Kim think that he was going to attack as he moved cautiously around the room towards the door. Then, in a burst of speed, he threw Frederick towards Kim and Ron, and ran through the hall to the parking lot.

Kim moved out of harm's way, letting the simian grab a hold of Ron. "Frederick!" Ron fell back and landed on the floor, but he was still happy to see the little simian. Rufus poked out of Ron's pocket and glanced at Frederick while smiling.

"Guys! He's getting away!" Kim announced as a yellow jet took flight and started to soar away.

"Hmm.... Oh well.... I guess we'll get him tomorrow...." Ron scratched his head. "At least he didn't get Frederick!" Ron patted the monkey's head. "Say.... What was on that file that he stole anyway?"

Kim stood silent and stuttered a little bit before replying. "E.L.E......"

"E.L.E!?" Ron questioned, remembering the President's secret file. "That's freaky..... Well come on. Let's go home. I'm sure you're beat."

"I'll say...." Kim stood stiff, thoughts running through her mind. 'E.L.E..... Extinction Level Event....'

Well there you go, the forth chapter. Sorry it's a bit on the short side and that it's a tad bit dull, but don't worry, there are more entertaining chapters that lie ahead. Just be patient, at least you know that I won't take 4 months to update again! You can count on that! R&R. Good Day.
