Arrastrago: And now the third installment of the story! Last time we.. uh.. where'd we leave off?
Bellatrix: We left off at the sidekick screaming like a girl….
Arrastrago: Oh yeah… whoops…. (clicks remote)

Kim looked at Ron with a sour expression on her face as he continued to flail.
"Will you cut it out?" She said irritably as she looked back to Wade, "Wade, can you tell me where that interfering call was made from?"
"Already got that" Wade said as he snapped his fingers, "Looks like the call you got came from the Sierra Mountain range in California. Good Luck!"
Shego had made a call more than half a country away from Drakkens lair…. Kim thought at the news. But why?
Now wasn't the time to think however, enemy or foe, Shego was in trouble, and Kim was going to help her out.

In no time at all Kim and Ron were on their way to the vast Sierras via helicopter. Kim was busy planning over the mission when she heard news from the pilot.
"You see those mountains on the horizon?" the man pointed to the said mountains, " Those're the Sierras"
"Thanks for taking us here Mr. Baker." Kim returned with thanks.
"My pleasure Miss Possible, it's the least I could do after you saved me from that thunderstorm."
"It was no big, it wasn't like it was the perfect storm or anything." Kim grinned at the lame joke.
The kimmunicator went off after the little chat and Kim pulled it out without further ado.
"Whatcha got?"
"I've tracked the coordinates where Shego had contacted you," Wade said while typing, "It was in a lighthouse on the outskirts of the ghost town Chester. It's on the shores of Lake Almanor."
"Almanor huh?" Baker looked over his shoulder, "That's a cinch! Give me fifteen minutes tops!"
"You hear that Ron?" Kim said relieved, "We're-"
Kim was cut short due to what was going on in the back seat.
"Ron, what are you doing?"
"Quiet KP! Me n' Rufus are sight-seeing!" The teen shouted over the helicopter blades. Him and Rufus both had their heads glued to the glass. Rufus started to hit the glass while chattering excitedly and pointed at the land below.
"Anther Bueno Nacho? You're good Rufus!"
The two friends gave each other "high fingers" and continued their game. Kim rolled her eyes and slumped back into the front seat.
"Boys…"

The landing had been uneventful and they had gotten their bearings with no difficulty. As Ron waved goodbye to the helicopter Kim quickly saddled up her gear. She looked over to Ron and they gave silent nods to one another.
"Lets go."
And with that, they set off into the wilderness.

It watched with gleaming eyes.
This was the girl responsible for bringing it back into this world. This was the rival of the infamous Shego. The only person in the whole world that would give it any challenge.
Get rid of her, and the game would be won.
It would follow them until the time was right.

As they walked along Ron couldn't help but feel a chill running down his spine. It was like.. something was watching them? He looked over his shoulder slightly. There was nothing.
The forest is just messing with youHe kept on reassuring himself that. But he couldn't shake the feeling off him.
"Kim, I think we're being followed." He said uneasily.
"Just chill would you?" Kim quickly retorted. Being so used to Ron crying wolf, the teen hero didn't know that her friend, was, indeed, right.
Soon they reached a clearing in the forest and they saw the lone lighthouse next to the deserted beach. They made tracks and when they got to it Kim jiggled the handle to find it locked.
"Hmm… not a problem…"
As what she did when faced with most locks Kim pulled out her pocked lipstick laser and zapped the lock off with minimum effort. She opened the door and motioned Ron to follow her.
They were met by a nasty surprise; a scene they'd only saw a few days ago.
The whole place was trashed. The chairs and tables that had once been housing had been turned over or broken. Several storage boxes had been burnt to cinders. The thing that unnerved them the most were the giant scorch marks along the walls. There had been a fight here not too long ago….
"Holy Cow!" Ron said breathless; taking in the whole sight.
Kim took her eyes off the mess and saw a flight of stairs. They had also suffered damage from the fight, but something told Kim that where they went was their destination.
"Come on Ron, lets go…"
As they started their trek up the stairs Ron couldn't help but look over his shoulder again. The shadows from the trees outside seemed to be playing tricks on him. It looked like there was a person standing in the vegetation; staring at him with it's cold eyes.
His train of thought derailed when he set foot on a feeble stair. A split second later he fell through and if it weren't for Kim, he'd be dead meat. Looking up he saw that his friend came through and grabbed his wrist. Quickly using both their skills, they managed to pull each other out of the perilous situation and continue on their way.
This time they treaded slower to avoid other mishaps. But when with the precautions Ron felt unnerved. It didn't have to do with the fall he took. But the figure he had seen in the forest. What was it?
They reached the top floor and Ron took it into his responsibility to open the door. Peeking in he was greeted by a greater surprise than before.
"Look!"
He threw the door open and Kim gasped.
The room was just like the one below. The furniture, the burn marks, everything was the same. Save for a limp figure thrown across the ground. The green and black suit was recognized immediately.
"Shego!"
Kim raced to her downed rival and sat her up straight. The green clad teenager opened her eyes slightly and coughed.
"Shego! What happened? What's going on?" Kim asked franticly.
"Get out…" Shego retorted with a impatient tone, "while you… still can." Her voice was strained and it took her every bit of strength to get a word out.
"I don't care if we're enemies Shego," Kim said impatiently as she helped the downed villain up, "We're not leaving without you!"
"We!" Ron yelped in surprise.
He was silenced as Kim gave him a light elbow, but at that moment the three turned as the door slammed shut with such a force it made the glass windows shudder. Ron was the first up to see if he could break the door down. Valiantly slamming the door, he then resorted to wrestling with the doorknob.
"Not good! We're locked IN!" He stated as he pulled so hard that he flew backward. Getting back to his feet, he realized that he had the doorknob in his hand and he threw it to the side sheepishly. The scene would have continued to be humorous had he not noticed the dark shadow slipping in through a crack on the window.
"Kim! Shego! Get out of there!"
They were quick to listen and rushed to the other side of the room. The dark essence finished pouring though the crack and began to build up. It started to form itself into a person.
"You simple fools!" It boomed in an echoing voice, "What are you doing helping Shego!"
"What we want to know," Kim snapped at the foe, "Is who are you, and what do you want with us!"
The figure was fully formed. Then, as if shedding a skin, the inky blackness began to drip off it. When the darkness was gone it looked them straight in the eye and it was greeted by gasps.
It was a woman. She looked about mid twenties and her figure was as lean and fit as Kim's was. On her shoulders, were jutting purple armor pads that lead into a purple and black cape that gave her the appearance of wings. Two pieces of fabric twirled down from them in pink and red hues looking like slithering snakes. Her main outfit was the shocker. It was exactly like Shego's, but where green was it was black and vice versa. Her long black hair was scruffy and flowed alongside her "wings" and "tails" But her pupiless green eyes were locked on them all. She curved her lips into a smile as she took a step towards them.
"You will know what I want soon enough…"
