Flo finished strapping on Drakken's device as she floated against the ceiling of the grand room. She saw Drakken put on the other device with practiced speed and aim it at Shego.
Bopper must have seen Drakken's intention. Her copies receded back into her, leaving the space between Shego and Drakken open.
Shego was just registering the change in Bopper's strategy when Drakken's beam struck her from behind. Shego's body shuddered and went limp as the energy was ripped away.
Flo saw green energy travel back along the beam toward Drakken. Flo didn't know how these devices worked, only that they did. She didn't want to take a chance on a strange reaction from crossing beams, so she trained her beam on Bopper.
Bopper convulsed as the beam struck and she too fell. Flo almost felt sorry for causing the girl pain, but her pity was not to be spent on those that had hurt her birth family. The transfer did not take long. As the new strength coursed through her Flo was not surprised to see Drakken throw green blasts up at her position.
Luckily his aim with the newly acquired power was lousy. Flo was thankful that increased strength -used carefully- should not have such a high learning curve.
Flo decided the easiest attack was to use the two powers she now had to the best complement. Started to glow blue and turned off the pink glow. She fell like a meteorite.
Flo tried to steer as close to Drakken as possible. She landed next to him as made a five-foot wide crater in the floor. The resulting shockwave knocked Drakken back and out.
Shego stirred as Flo drained Drakken of a glow, the purple one. Flo had hoped for red. They needed numbers on their side for a change.
Shego had just stood, when she was surrounded by Boppers again.
"Aren't we the broken record?" Shego commented.
Each Bopper spread a set of music discs in her hand like a fan, "I totally go with my strengths," said one. Several of them then swiped at Shego with the sharp edges.
The one closest to Flo turned around and threw her discs at Flo. Flo glowed purple and shrunk, making it easier to dodge the flying discs. She still narrowly avoided one that lodged in the floor next to her. It was from a band called 'Duran Duran'. Another one nearby was by the 'Sex Pistols'. Flo found it incredible that someone her age would be into such old, obscure music.
Flo aimed a beam at the huge, red, punked woman. When it struck, she shimmered away, but there was no transfer.
Shego was still holding her own against the three Boppers, even without her glowing hands. She blocked each disc-fan and countered with her clawed gloves and the occasional well-placed kick.
Flo began to shine with cascading stripes of pink, blue, and purple. At the fastest speed she could muster, shrinking as small as she could and pushing as hard as she could, Flo flew straight into the solar plexus of the only Bopper that wasn't completely red.
Bopper doubled over in extreme pain. The red girls disappeared.
"Not a bad move, kid," Shego managed a faint smile. Her breathing was heavy.
Flo smiled back as she returned to normal size and landed.
"Too bad she won't be able to show it to her posse," Drakken said as the two of him attacked both women at once with green glowing hands.
Each woman managed to take hold of Drakken's forearms, holding the lethal energy away.
"You know, Shego," Drakken said as he pushed closer to her face, "If you hadn't left me so long ago, you could be sharing in the spoils of my victory." He looked into her eyes, "Maybe you're on the wrong side."
Flo was surprised to hear that Shego and Drakken had some sort of history. Though there was obviously some bad blood, she became concerned that Drakken could manipulate Shego into following him.
