Arrival and Memory Sharing
Upon their arrival at the hangar, Norman brings out the rations that he had stored aboard Sky Base. As the couples heat their meals, Norman looks over at Kim and Ron. Painfully curious, he asks, "Just out of curiosity, just how did you two get together anyways?"
Ron grins and replies, "It happened three months after an incident involving Professor Bortel and his Moodulator chips. These chips caused the wearer to experience heightened emotions. Basically Kim got one on the back of her neck while Sheila got one on her neck as well. Needless to say, things got pretty hairy from that point on."
Norman asks, "How so?" Giggling, Kim explains all the moods that she had went through as a result of that chip. When she's done, Norman cringes as he says, "Thank goodness those didn't exist when Jesse was alive."
Bonnie sighs as she says, "My Mom mentioned Jesse Mach once, after he had died. It wasn't until after he died that she realized he was Street Hawk. She was writing a book that would expose the true party behind a murder. Needless to say, it garnered her Press attention and also the killers' attention as well. Jesse saved her life several times and helped her reveal the actual killers. My Mom still regrets making that announcement that she would reveal Street Hawk's identity. When she heard who it was, she was amazed and saddened at the same time. At the same time, she started getting death threats from those that survived their encounters with Street Hawk. So she had no other recourse than to testify against them and went right into Witness Protection."
Ron nods and says, "That must have been hard for her, knowing what she knew after what had happened." Curious, Ron then asks, "Norman, just when did Jesse die anyway?"
Norman sighs and replies, "It happened a month after Street Hawk helped a Citizen's Group take back their neighborhood. Wade's parents were among the residents there. They in turn helped him stop a group of robbers stealing gold bars. Here's the kicker. At the same time it was going on, Command Center's computers were down because the phone company had to do repairs due to flood damage."
Kim jumps in and says, "That's why you put the extra Hyperthrust controls in Sky Base, just in case the current Command Center was to have the same thing happen." Norman, amazed at Kim's intuition, merely nods and turns to Ron, seeing an impressed grin on the young man's face.
Norman then says, "You've got yourself a good wife, Ron. Brains, beauty and brawn. Yet, back to my question. Just what brought you two together?"
Bonnie replies, "I can answer that, Norman. It was bound to happen sooner or later. Remember when James Murphy came to Kim and Ron's wedding? Well, he was the one that they helped when they discovered their feelings for each other. Of course, Josh Mankey wasn't happy about that one bit." Remembering an item, she then asks, "What happened the day you took a tumble down the steps, Kim? Looked like a portal opened on your stomach."
Kim sighs and says, "I was hoping you didn't notice it. Ron and I had just got done eating at Bueno Nacho where Ron was once again doing another Mankey-monkey conspiracy. As we left Bueno Nacho, Drakken sprayed me with pollen, intent on making me blush myself out of existence." Kim then reaches over and takes Ron's hand, saying, "This prompted Ron to journey to the jungle in order to find the plant to reverse the effects."
Ron jumps in and continues, "While the Wade-bot, Rufus and I were in the jungle, Kim had gotten a date invitation from Monkey boy. She was so sure that nothing would embarrass her, she readily accepted. Then came the embarrassment ninjas."
Hirotaka, not much for showing emotions, suddenly burst out laughing, saying between breaths and laughter, "Now I've heard everything! Embarrassment ninjas? I've heard of those guys. They use the most bizarre methods to humiliate their targets. What did they use?"
Kim chuckles as she replies, "I'm not sure what they called most of them, but one of them I remember quite well. The 'pimple punch'. Thankfully enough, Ron was able to return and saved me in the nick of time. Of course, it didn't help matters that the tweebs got in on the act."
Suddenly, the hangar is filled with the sound of crying babies. Bonnie sighs and softly says, "Hang on, babies. Mommy's coming." She then gets up, kisses Hirotaka on his head and walks toward the makeshift nursery that the children of both families are at. Upon arrival in the nursery, Bonnie sees Ron squirming around, his fists in the air.
Bonnie softly giggles and asks, "Is Mommy's little Ronnie-kins hungry? Come here to me, my precious." She does a quick check and finds that he is hungry. Bonnie softly giggles as she takes a seat on a crate and nurses Ron. As he suckles, she decides to tell him about his namesake.
"Ron, the guy you're named after is the most decent, caring guy I've come to know. There's not a whole lot of nice guys out there. Or nice girls either. But know this. Ron once defeated Mommy, yes he did. He won a talent show, even though Mommy thought she'd win. There were some times that Mommy was really worried about him. She actually cringed when he bashed his head on cinder blocks, intending to break them. Sure enough, he did. It also knocked him out, so Mommy had to wrap his head without anyone knowing about it."
She then hears Kim giggling behind her and blushes, knowing she's been found out.
She then asks, "How long have you been standing there, K?"
Kim chuckles as she walks over and replies, "Long enough, B. I thought you were disappointed, though."
"I was, for a time. Then I felt immense pride toward Ron. He'd go to any length to ensure success, wouldn't he? Including very absurd lengths."
Kim nods and softly says, "I don't know what I'd do without him. He's always been in my corner and my shadow, preferring to stay unknown. When he came across remote popularity, he gained some respect, only for it to go all fouled up."
Bonnie nods and says, "I know what you mean, Kim. In fact, when Ron had full run of the cafeteria, I even tried some of his dishes, just out of curiosity. Surprisingly enough, they were a lot better than that slop. I think the cafeteria lady was a bona fide psycho, feeding us that goop. Matter of fact, given the choice between that and garbage, I'd choose the garbage. Of course, compared to garbage, Ron's cooking is the best. You're so lucky."
Kim smiles as Bonnie gets up, puts Ron back into the crib, walks over and hugs Kim, with Kim returning the hug. Bonnie then sniffles and says, "I'm glad we finally got to be friends, Kim."
Kim chuckles and sniffles as she replies, "Right back at you, Bon-Bon." At that, both girls exchange a giggle and head back out into the living area of the hangar. When they get there, they find Ron telling Norman and the others about Wade's holo-projector that was used when he went up against Monkey Fist for the first time.
"Next thing I know, Kim's cousin Larry appears and tells me I should become the thing I fear the most. So I run down to the chamber and I get struck by the Mystical Monkey Power, as does Rufus. It was after the idols were destroyed that Fiske was defeated."
Hirotaka nods in agreement and says, "Because of that, you were selected by Master Sensei to attend Yamanouchi."
Kim chuckles as she sits down and says, "I kinda pity Anime Guy. I remember he was so sure to go, that he actually got up before Barkin even made his announcement. Just like I remember a certain brunette that wanted to make the exchange permanent."
Bonnie blushes in embarrassment and says, "If I'd known the whole deal, I wouldn't have said that." To her surprise, instead of angry scowls, she sees them smiling and then they burst into laughter, relieving her tension. She chuckles mildly and adds, "Besides, it was before my make-over."
Jane asks, "When was that? Around the time Kim and Ron got together?"
Bonnie nods and replies, "Ever since that day, I've felt a lot better about myself and those around me." She then gets up and goes to Ron's side, saying, "Kim, I'm gonna hug and kiss your husband on the cheek. And you know what? Not a darn thing you can do about it." Kim giggles as Bonnie does so. When she gets done, Bonnie says, "Thanks for chewing me out that day, Ron."
Ron nods and says, "You're welcome, Bon-Bon." Scrunching his face in thought, he remembers something and asks, "Kim, remember when we got those weird headaches on our way home from school?"
"Oh yeah. I even remember you saying something about hating meatcakes. Do you still hate them?"
Ron nods and says, "Along with lamb and cabbage stew, though I don't know why."
Bonnie chuckles and adds, "The same thing happened to me. It was only for an instant, but I saw myself wearing a suit that looked just like Shego's and I was being taken down by naked mole rats. Total weirdness." She then cringes at sharing that particular memory.
Rufus comes out of Ron's pocket and scampers onto Bonnie's shoulder. She chuckles and says, "One naked mole rat on my shoulder, no problem. But a whole bunch of them? No way, guys. Way too freaky for me." She ponders some more and says, "I even recall a couple of troublemakers that looked just like you. They were wearing jumpsuits as well."
Kim and Ron both shudder at it. Kim then says, "All this nonsense has me thinking of Norway. Let's change the subject. All in favor?" All members of the team have their hands raised, with Rufus having his paw up. Kim nods and says, "It's agreed. Norman, will the Committee require us to reveal our identities to them? And possibly the world?"
"No, I don't think so, Kim. Then again, this is a Senate Subcommittee we're appearing in front of. So you can never tell with those guys. The worst they can do is either terminate the project or turn it over to an uptight group that doesn't use instincts or the occasional lunacy as their weapons or inspiration."
Hirotaka then says, "Let us then hope that they at least allow the project to continue. With us at the helm. Who knows? We may make good trainers if your dream comes true, Norman-san." The others nod in agreement and Norman smiles and sniffles.
He then says, "There's one guy that would have enjoyed this trip. Jesse. He should be here with us."
Ron grins and says, "In a way, he is. He is inside us, your vehicles and always in your heart, Norman. As long as you remember that, there's no sitch that cannot be survived."
At that, they are all blown away. Kim's eyebrow twitches, Norman chuckles while Jane laughs. Bonnie sputters as Hirotaka starts shaking in his seat from laughing on the inside as Rufus scampers over to Kim.
Kim then asks, "Where did that come from?"
Ron replies, "No idea, KP. But it sounded cool and true. Didn't it?" At that the whole crew starts laughing and they laugh even harder when Ron says, "Boo-yah!" The rest of the night, they alternate shifts of Guard duty and diaper duty, allowing the others to get some rest.
