With Halloween coming up, thought I would try something a little dark and sinister. Not sure how many chaps I'll make this, but I guess it will depend on reviews. Wanted to take a short break from thinking about my "Nega Monkey" Story for a while.
On with the evil!
October 14th
Kim still couldn't believe what a good kisser Ron was! His kisses were gentle, passionate, tender, forceful, passionate, passionate, and did I say passionate?
The two had started their Senior year not too long ago, as it was only October. The trees were losing their leaves, and there was a bite in the air that said it was going to be a harsh winter. The one thing Kim didn't like was the bitter winters in Colorado. The only way she could make it through this year was to cuddle with Ron in front of a fire, like she was now.
Her parents were at work, the Tweebs were at a friend's house, and the two had the entire Possible residence at their disposal for about an hour. The temp outdoors was a bitter 28 deg. Farenheit, but the temp on the couch was well above boiling.
"My… GOD, Ron! Where did you learn to kiss like that?" Kim said, a little out of breath. She had been lying on top of Ron the entire time they had been kissing.
"mmm… not sure, KP. Guess I'm just a natural." Ron gave her his quirky little smile.
"Ronald Stoppable, no one, I repeat, NO ONE is a natural born kisser. You have to practice."
"Uhhh… OK. How 'bout, I'm a quick study? Now come here and let me practice some more!" He pulled the redhead back down on top of him, and they started another round of tonsil hockey. Suddenly…
beep beep be deep
Kim grabbed the Kimmunicator from her pocket as she sat up and then brushed a strand of hair out of her face.
"This had better be friggin' good, Wade!"
The look on Wades face snapped her out of her 'tweaked' mode. "Sorry, Wade. Guess you caught us, I mean me, at a good, I mean, bad, time." She breathed out, blowing a strand of hair out of her face.
"Apology accepted Kim. Tell Ron I'm sorry for… interrupting you… two."
This was all still a little strange to Wade. He had been catching his two best friends 'in the middle of something' more and more often. Plus, since he was working with back-up systems since that fateful 'spike', he didn't have full monitoring capabilities before calling them.
"So, anyways, what's the sitch Wade?"
"This should be a new one for you. Got a hit on your site from a Count Borris in Transylvania. He's had a series of break-ins at his family owned museum. It seems only items related to certain local legends have been taken, but each time, only one item is missing."
"Why wouldn't the thief take it all at once?" Kim asked, jumping ahead with her reasoning.
"That's the reason for the call. Each item isn't worth enough for the local authorities to be interested, and they look at each break-in as a separate case. It's almost as if…"
"They don't want the local police involved." This time it was Ron who made the deduction. Kim looked at Ron, astonished that he made the connection that quick
"Lucky guess?" Ron said, sheepishly.
"What legend are the items related to, Wade?"
"You're not going to believe this Kim, but werewolves!"
"Aaahhhhhh…. Werewolves! La La La La Don't want to hear it Wade! Can't hear you!" Ron had his fingers pushed deep into his ears, as fear gripped his soul. The only thing he feared more than evil monkeys, was werewolves!
Suddenly Ron had a look of concentration on his face. "Kim! Monday is a full moon! We have to get this thing taken care of before then!"
"Ron, how did you know…?"
"He's right Kim. Monday, October 17th 2005 IS a full moon. How DID you know that, Ron?"
"Duh… October, Halloween coming up? One of my all-time favorite days of the year? I also don't like being out at night on a full moon. Bad memories."
"Amp down, Ron. It was only a black cat walking under a ladder, which rubbed the leg of the ladder too hard, causing it to knock a mirror off the wall, all while you spilled salt on the table of that outdoor café under a full moon, and it happened to be Friday the 13th, and you witnessed everything. You don't believe in that nonsense, do you?"
"Kim, " Wade said, "Do you know what the odds of all that happening are?"
Kim scoffed. "You don't need to tell me, Mr. Spock."
"Kim, what did we agree to concerning …"
"The nerd alert stuff? Sorry Wade. I'm just not superstitious."
"It's OK Kim. No Big. Your ride should be there in 20 minutes."
"Thanks again, Wade. You rock, in stereo!" Kim then broke the connection. "C'mon, bad-luck Boy. Let's get ready."
Kim grabbed Ron's hand, and tugged him upstairs so they could change. Ron turned his back so Kim could change, and Kim did the same for Ron. Neither had noticed though, that each stole a glance at the other while semi-clothed.
Kim then wrote a note to her family saying where they were going, and also asked them to contact Ron's parents, as they were at their jobs also.
The two went outside to wait for their ride, but didn't have to wait long, as the VTOL Jet was landing as they came out the front door.
"Ooof" Both exclaimed, as the rush of wind from the jet's engines hit them. It blew leaves and dust all around them. Ron thought he saw a black cat out of the corner of his eye.
Hope this is a good opening chapter, and hope it sets things up well.
