Well a little delay on this chapter, hope you are all still interested.
If all goes well this should really be finished in another 4 chapters, give or take one or so.
Lets not keep that pure evil entity known as The Car waiting any longer (It knows where I live)
The Car Comes to Middleton
Chapter 6
House Call
Kim awoke to a blurry light being shined into her eyes.
Everything around her was distorted and askew, her head hurt, her back hurt, she felt very weak.
"Wh-where am I?" Kim groggily asked
"Hush dear, your safe now" A familiar voice said
"Mom?" Kim asked as everything slowly slid into focus.
Kim saw she was in a hospital room; her mother was hovering over her with a flashlight, shining it into her eyes.
"It's ok Kim, you're safe now."
Kim began to sit up, but fell back into the bed.
Kim's mom put the flashlight away; Kim was now able to look around the hospital room.
There in front of her was her mother; leaning against the far wall was Dr. Director along with Monique and Bonnie.
Kim noticed someone was missing
"Where's Ron?" Kim asked growing fearful, she remembered him covering her as she went for the door to the Car, and she feared the worst.
"I'm over here KP" a weak Ron called.
Kim looked over to her left, and there on an adjacent hospital bed lie Ronald Stoppable, his shirt was off and bandages were wrapped around his mid section. Curled up in his lap sleeping was Rufus.
"Ron! What happened to you?" Kim asked, noticing the very visible bandages around him.
"I tried to stop the Car when he tossed you aside, but he got me with his door too." Ron said as he pointed to the bandages.
"It's nothing serious Kim, just a few bruised ribs." Ron said noticing the concern in her face.
"Just a few Bruised Ribs?" Kim asked raising an eyebrow.
Ron chuckled "Just like your mild Concussion?"
Kim smirked, while they were both hurt they still managed to make each other smile.
"You two were very lucky encountering the Car the way you did" Dr. Director said from the back of the room.
Kim looked over at her, slightly confused.
"Ronald told us everything" Betty said, seeing the teen's confused expression.
Kim leaned back into the hospital bed, she was exhausted.
"You two should be just fine, but for tonight I want you to both spend the night here, just to be safe, and it isn't negotiable." Kim's mother said as she kissed Kim on the forehead.
"Bye Mom"
"Later Mrs. Dr. P"
When Kim's mom left the room Kim turned back to the three women in the room.
"How many" Kim asked
Ron looked over confused
"How many what Kim?"
Kim gave Ron a serious look, then it dawned on Ron what exactly Kim was asking.
Betty sighed
"Five agents. Will, Denson, Metcalf, James, Allan. Not to mention the six horse wranglers it took out, on top of Tara, Josh, Hubble, Brick and Sadie."
Kim felt tears come to her eyes as the names were said, she heard Ron let out a sigh, Bonnie and Monique covered their faces as they heard the names.
"My God" Kim muttered.
"When we came up to it, there was nothing wrong with it. How did it get our units and come out of it without a scratch?" Ron asked.
"He could've killed us, he could have drove right into the cemetery and run us all down" Bonnie said.
The room went silent as they tried to think of answers. None came up.
"We shot both tires, and the windshield. Nothing happened" Kim said rubbing her face.
Betty went to speak, but decided against it as she didn't want to reveal the contents of the manila folder just yet.
"I'll give you two girls a ride home" Betty said noticing how exhausted Bonnie and Monique looked.
"Yeah, that sounds good. Ron, Kim, take care. And get that miserable scumbag" Monique said as she went with Bonnie and Dr. Director out the door.
Kim lay back in her bed, she and Ron were alone in the room.
"What do we do Ron? We can't seem to stop this guy" Kim said looking over at him.
"There has to be something we could do Kim, I mean it's just a Car"
"Ron, just a car would have been damaged when it came through Drakken's lair; just a car would have been destroyed when it took out those three agents. This Is Not Just A CAR!" Kim said, yelling the last part.
Ron looked at Kim, surprised by her outburst which wasn't like her. Sure she got worked up, but never this bad.
"Sorry Kim" Ron said, slightly hurt by Kim's outburst.
"Ron, don't be. We aren't programmed to deal with something like this." Kim said as she tried to maneuver the bed closer to Ron.
Ron saw what Kim was trying and started to do the same, he winced as every pull put a strain on his ribs.
Soon both of their beds were next to each other; Kim reached over and put her hand on Ron's face. Ron smiled and brushed Kim's hair with his hand.
"Kim, whatever it is we'll take care of it. We are Team Possible, together we can do anything" Ron said as he brushed Kim's hair.
Kim smiled and leaned over towards Ron.
Their lips met. They held the Kiss for a considerable amount of time, neither wanted it to end, until:
Beep beep be beep
Kim broke of the kiss and looked into Ron's brown eyes; Ron looked back into Kim's.
Beep beep be beep
"Better answer it" Ron said, smiling wryly.
Kim looked and saw the Kimmunicator on the table in between the two beds, along with it was a stack of both of their clothes that they left in their lockers.
Kim picked the Kimmunicator up and turned it on, Wades face appeared on screen.
"Hey Wade, what's up" Kim said as she leaned back into her bed.
"Kim! Thank goodness you're alright! I heard about the practice, I wanted to tell you before hand but I didn't get the-"
"Slow down Wade!" Kim demanded, she and Ron exchanged worried looks as Wade caught his breath.
"Ok, I wanted to tell you this before the practice but I didn't have time." Wade said as he typed on his computer.
A police report came onto the Kimmunicators screen.
"This is a report of an incident that happened in the small town of Santa Ynez, New Mexico in 1977"
Kim scanned over the report as Ron looked on from his bed.
Kim stopped when she reached the newspaper headline in the report.
"Mysterious Black sedan kills three, 2 cyclists on the mountain and one hitchhiker" Kim read aloud.
Ron tensed up.
"Wade, you don't think that this is the same Car do you?" Kim asked; her concern mounting.
"Kim it IS the same Car, the events are almost exactly the same. Right down to the attack at the practice today and the killing of the agent, it is the same Car."
Kim sat up, stunned at what she was reading as Wade continuing.
"Chief Hubble was a deputy sheriff in the town at the time, according to the report it was believed that the Car was not of this world. It never showed damage, never revealed who, if anyone was driving it, and could reach mind boggling speeds in an instant as well as completely disappear from all searches."
"Sadie's lasers, Shego's plasma, bullets to the tires and windshield, its finally starting to make sense." Ron said
Kim looked over to Ron who was now sitting up.
"Think about it Kim, It never showed any damage even after destroying Sadie and bursting through a wall. No Car on earth could do that without some kind of damage!"
"And Shego couldn't burn through its roof when she hit it" Kim said seeing where he was going.
It all started to come together now.
"That's not all guys" Wade said,
The screen changed to scene of a cemetery in Santa Ynez
"When the Car attacked at the practice in New Mexico, reports said that the Car tried to get into the cemetery, but on every attempt it was like something was holding it back."
Kim looked at Ron again, they were both thinking of how the Car tried repeatedly to get into the cemetery.
"Another deputy said that it could be because the ground was haloed. It couldn't pass the unseen barrier and kill on holy ground" Wade said.
"That's it Wade! Holy!" Ron yelled
"Ron, what do you mean?" Kim asked raising an eyebrow.
"The Car cannot cross holy land, no Cemetery, and no church, nothing that is sacred. That is how we stop it!" Ron exclaimed.
Rufus who was now awake nodded his head in agreement.
"But how Ron? We drop a church on it?" Kim asked
Ron smacked himself in the face
"No Kim! Holy Water!"
"Ahh, I see now" Kim said finally realizing where Ron was going with that.
"Wade, I need you to start pulling in favors, we need a lot of blessed water." Kim said turning back to the screen.
"Sure thing Kim, but there is something I need to ask you" Wade said as he reappeared on screen.
"What is it Wade?"
"When the Car showed up at the Cemetery, did anyone curse it out?" Wade asked as he sipped off his soda.
"Yeah Wade, Bonnie and Monique did. It allowed me to get over and call for help. Why do you ask?"
"Oh no"
Kim started to feel uneasy, Ron leaned in closer at Wade's words.
"Kim, the report from Santa Ynez states that a deputy's girlfriend cursed the car out while they were held up in the cemetery. Later that night she was killed by the Car"
Kim felt herself go pale, Ron put his arm on Kim's shoulder and squeezed gently.
"Wade, Get me in touch with Dr. Director now! We have to warn them!"
Dr. Director drove the two teens down the dark street towards Bonnie's house.
She was going to drop both of them off there as Monique insisted on walking the 2 additional blocks to her house.
The ride over was quiet as neither of the teens spoke about what happened earlier that day.
The Patrol Car passed a hidden driveway, no one in the car bothered to look out at their surroundings.
If they had they might have caught a glimpse of the Chrome Bumpers of the Car as it sat in the Driveway, waiting for the two that had cursed it to be dropped off before it made its move.
Betty pulled the car into the driveway of Bonnie's house and put the car in park.
"You two sure you'll be alright?" Betty asked
"Yeah we'll be fine. Thanks for the ride" Monique said as she got out of the car.
"You be safe now" Betty said as Bonnie slid out of the car and shut the door.
Betty put the car in reverse and backed out of the driveway. She continued back towards the hospital, she was going to tell Ron and Kim what she knew.
She drove past the same driveway, she still wasn't looking as she drove past and continued towards the hospital.
The two teen girls watched as Dr. Director drove off down the road.
"You want to come in for a little bit for some tea or something?" Bonnie asked
Monique stared at her for a minute surprised, Bonnie was never this nice.
Monique shrugged "Yeah some tea would be good" as she followed Bonnie up to her porch.
Monique pulled a piece of paper out of her pocket when the wind kicked up, tearing the paper from her hand.
Monique went after the paper, the wind carried it into the middle of the street.
Monique caught it and the wind mysteriously died down.
"Monique! What are you doing?" Bonnie called as she rushed over to see what was going on.
"I went after this piece of paper the wind took, then the winds just stopped" Monique said as she looked around.
"Ok this is seriously starting to freak me out" Bonnie said as she looked around.
"Straight up girl"
The Car waited in the driveway till the patrol car passed by again, there was only one person in the car.
After it passed the Car turned its headlights on and rushed out of the driveway and headed towards Bonnies house.
Monique and Bonnie were starting to slowly make their way back to Bonnie's house when the wind picked up with a violent severity.
Both teens struggled to stay standing,
It suddenly came over the two what was going on, just before the Car arrived at the practice there was an incredibly violent gust of wind, exactly the same as the one they were going through now.
"Oh my God!" Monique said as she looked at all the trees swaying violently in the wind.
"Come on!" Bonnie said as she drug Monique up her front steps.
Bonnie opened the door and the two rushed inside, Bonnie locked the door behind them.
"Better call the Director and let her know" Bonnie said as she peered out the front window.
Betty's PDA started going off, she was 2 minutes from the hospital.
Sighing she reached for it and activated it. On screen came Kim.
"Kimberly?" Betty asked surprised.
"Dr. Director, where are Bonnie and Monique?" Kim asked her voice was urgent
"I just dropped them off at Bonnie's house, why?"
"Listen you need to go back there, the Car is going to kill them!"
"Kim, are you ok? You sound a litt-"
"There is no time Betty! Get back there before it's too late!"
Betty's PDA vibrated
"Hold on Kim, I have an incoming call"
"Betty! Don't hang up on m-" Kim was cut off as Betty pushed the accept button.
The screen changed to Monique's face.
"Monique? What's the problem?"
"Dr. Director, we're inside Bonnie's house. We are ok, but that crazy wind picked up before we got in."
Betty's face went pale, she clutched the steering wheel and swung it around, bringing the patrol car facing back the way it came.
"Monique, I'm patching you through to Kim. I'll be there in 3 minutes" Betty said as she hit buttons on the PDA.
Monique waited for Kim to come through as Bonnie turned away from the window, the wind still violently blowing outside.
Soon Kim appeared on the screen.
"Monique, you and Bonnie have to get out of the house now!" Kim yelled
"Kim, what? I don't understand" Monique said confused
"Listen to me, the Car is coming for you two, you have to get out of there now!"
"Kim are you ok? We're in Bonnie's house, I don't think it can get us if we are in a house" Monique said matter-o-factly.
As Monique argued with Kim, Bonnie stood with her back to the window as a smile came on her face.
On the dark horizon, behind Bonnie two headlights appeared.
Bonnie watched the two best friends argue over something so trivial,
Duh, we're in a house. No Loser and his ugly Car are getting us
Then Bonnie heard a audible rumble in the air as the headlights grew nearer.
Strange, that almost sounds like that stupid car
"Monique listen to me, the Car is coming for you. Please get out now!" Kim begged her friend.
Monique was about to respond when she heard the same rumble.
"Huh" Monique said
The headlights grew nearer, the sound increased
"What is it Mon?" Kim asked
"The wind, it sounds like that stupid Car" Monique said.
Bonnie still had her back to the window, but she noticed on the wall across from her that it kept getting brighter and brighter, as if someone was shining a giant spotlight threw the window.
What the?
Bonnie turned around.
All the breath left her lungs as she became pale.
The Sound was now close as the living Room where the two were was enveloped in blinding light.
"Monique? Monique?" Kim asked
Monique turned around towards the source of the blinding light.
There she saw Bonnie, looking out the window, frozen in terror.
Monique moved in closer, till she saw it.
It was the Car, it was now just reaching Bonnies house, as it seemed to suddenly lift off of the ground and head straight for the two of them in the house.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaa bababababaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Monique and Bonnie screamed as the Car Smashed threw the living room window, taking chunks of the wall with it.
The Car struck both teens where they stood as it smashed through the rest of the house and landed, unscratched on the road behind Bonnies house.
An eerie silence fell over the house as debris settled on the two victims as the Car drove off.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaa babaaaaaaaababaaaaa!
Sorry for the delay on this chapter, but this one is drawing to a close. Should be about 3 more chapters before this one is done.
