Doctor's Visit, Suit Test,Training and Arrivals
The same day, back in Middleton, Kim and Ron had left their children at the Day Care center, seeing that their parents were at work and the tweebs at school. They get back into the Expedition and drive to the Doctor's office.
As he drives, Ron says, "I hope we don't come across another quack when it's time for the ultrasound, Kim."
Kim nods and replies, "You and me both, honey. You and me both." Within minutes, they arrive at the Doctor's office and Ron fills out the paperwork while Kim starts pacing.
The receptionist then says, "Mrs. Stoppable, the Doctor will see you now. Your husband can accompany you if you wish."
Ron replies, "I'll just wait out here for when the results are ready." Kim nods in agreement with his assessment and follows the receptionist into a changing room. As he watches Kim walk into the room, Ron starts to wonder if he should have gone with her after all.
Five minutes later, Kim comes back out of the room, gives Ron a quick peck on his lips and follows the receptionist to an Examination Room. Kim then has a seat on the gurney, wishing that Ron was in there with her.
The Doctor then opens the door, comes in, smiles and says, "Hello, Kimberly. How're the triplets doing?"
"They're doing fine, Doc. I think I'm pregnant again. I took the test and it came back positive. I just want to get a second opinion, just in case."
"That's a very good thought, Kim. If you're ready, we can begin. I gather Ron's waiting right now."
Kim nods and replies, "That he is. He said he'd rather wait until the results came back. That's why I love him so much. He's my hero and my anchor. He keeps me myself, a basic average young woman that happens to be able to do anything. At the same time, I wish he wouldn't be so decent in giving me my privacy when I need it and him most."
The Doctor chuckles as he begins the examination. He takes her blood sample and has a rush done on it. Of course, Kim has the timing to have a case of morning sickness right into the sink. Meekly, she apologizes, but the Doctor waves it off, calling it a good indicator of her suspicions.
When the results come back fifteen minutes later, he says, "Okay, Kimberly. You can get dressed now. I'll give you both the results in five minutes inside my office. Okay?"
"Sure Dr. Cotner. Thanks."
Dr. Adam Cotner nods and replies, "Hey, it's the least I could do for my patients. After all, if Street Hawk and his team didn't stop that crazy-ass, drunkard quack, that guy would have made OB/GYN a bad occupation."
Kim nods, remembering the team's run in with the self-styled OB/GYN. It wasn't a pretty sight in the end. She then gets dressed and finds Ron reading a magazine, with his right leg bent.
She smiles at the lovely sight and softly nods. It didn't sound like a good idea to tell them Ron had the surgery at the time. But as long no one makes a connection between Ron and Street Hawk, they'll be in good shape.
As she walks toward him, he asks, "How'd it go, KP?"
Kim shrugs and replies, "He'll let us know in his office. Shall we go, sweetie?"
"We shall, my darling." Laughing at the corniness, Kim takes Ron's arm into hers and the couple go into the office. When they're seated, the Doctor gives them the verdict.
"Kim, Ron, I could tell you you're going to have a baby right now." Their faces slump, knowing it'd be followed with, 'But I'd be lying.' To their surprise, it's the opposite.
"And it'd be the truth. Congratulations, Ron and Kim Stoppable. You're going to be parents, again." Kim smiles in happiness while Ron gently rubs her belly, bends down and kisses it. Kim then runs her fingers through Ron's hair and toys with his cowlick.
Dr. Cotner, chuckling at the sight, then says, "You're two months along. As usual, come see me again in two months to check on the baby. I hope you're not planning to go on any missions for a while."
"Oh no, Doctor Cotner. Effective as of now, I'm going on Maternity leave from work at the High School, as is Ron." Ron nods in agreement as he brings his head up from her mid-section, a massive grin on his face.
Meanwhile, five hours later in Detroit, a plane lands from Middleton, Colorado. Bernice Lipsky gets out of the airplane and looks around for her welcoming party. She then sees a familiar-looking young woman in a Police uniform holding a placard saying, 'Mama Lipsky'.
Smiling she goes over to the Officer and says, "I'm Mama Lipsky. Are you here to take me to Shego?"
The Officer grins and says, "She's right in front of you."
"Shego, is that really you? Wow! My 'Drewbie' is friends with a Police Officer now."
Sheila grimaces and says, "Not quite. We better go. I'm running a little late. My Father-in-Law can only be so lenient when it comes to time."
Bernice, with a frown on her face, asks, "Is my 'Drewbie' in trouble again? Because of Eddie?"
Sheila frowns and says, "The Commander'll have my hide for this, but all right. Mama Lipsky, you may want to have a seat." When she's seated, Sheila explains. "I'm sure you recall the night that Dr. Drakken and his Consortium of evil was wiped out by Street Hawk and his associates."
When Bernice nods, she goes on, "Mama Lipsky, Drew was not a radio Doctor. He was Dr. Drakken. He had all kinds of plans to take over the world. He was constantly defeated by Kim Possible before she married Ron Stoppable."
In disbelief, Bernice says, "No, it can't be true. Please tell me it isn't."
Sheila nods and replies, "It's true, all of it. He only told you that he was a radio Doctor because he didn't want to disappoint you. I was his henchwoman and bodyguard. He was never much of a fighter, but he did try to succeed in his schemes."
"If you were his henchwoman, why weren't you there to keep him alive?"
"I quit because he wanted to kill Ron Stoppable. You see, he had the idea that if Ron was out of Kim's life, she wouldn't be able to stop him from taking over the world. I may have done bad things in the past, but I absolutely draw the line at murder."
Bernice, with tears in her eyes, asks, "Why wait so long to tell me?"
Sheila sighs and replies, "It was my way of softening the blow for you, Ms. Lipsky. After all, if you had been told the day after about Drew, you would have probably killed someone."
In thought, Bernice then asks, "Does anyone else know the truth about my 'Drewbie'?"
Sheila nods and replies, "Other than Kim and Ron, 'Team Hawk' has the details. You see, my memory is limited as it was wiped clean by 'Team Hawk's members. My brothers' memories as well. Along with a young girl's memory."
Her radio then squawks and she answers.
"Unit 775 here, go ahead."
"Unit 775, report to headquarters. Commander Murphy's stomping around and excited. The sample suit has arrived. Do you require back-up?"
"Negative Dispatch. Inform the Commander I'm en route, Code 2."
"10-4, Unit 775. Also, the State Department is here as well. Seems they're up in arms over the fracas this morning."
"Unit 775, roger. I'm heading in now. Set an extra place. Bringing in a visitor."
"Copy that, Unit 775."
Sheila puts away her radio and Bernice says, "The Commander must not be very pleasant if he's stomping around."
Sheila then starts chuckling and says, "You'll see why he stomps around, Mama Lipsky. Besides, I have a couple of people I want you to meet when the day's out." At that, the two women leave the Airport and get into Sheila's Interceptor.
At Headquarters, Robocop is as ecstatic as a cyborg can be. The sample armored suit had arrived five minutes ago and he is preparing a mannequin for the testing.
As he dresses the mannequin, he says, "Carl, if all goes well, you'll be intact when the testing is done." He then lets out a warped chuckle as he carries the mannequin to the indoor shooting range. Upon arrival, he puts 'Carl' on the trolley for the target and moves the mannequin into position for testing.
Soon, a crowd of Officers arrive and watch him set up the video equipment and the testing weapons. Everything from his Auto-9 all the way up to the big Magilla, the Cobra Assault Cannon. He ensures that all weapons have armor-piercing rounds in them and elects to wait until Sheila and Mama Lipsky arrive.
Sheila had informed him that she would be greeting Mama Lipsky at the Airport and would be there as soon as she could. He then shook his head and told her that he'd be with her to give her support when she told the older woman about what had happened to her son.
He then hears Sheila's voice through the door and Mama Lipsky huffing and puffing right behind her.
Next thing he knows, once she sets her sights on him, she yells, "It's a robot!"
Sheila growls and says, "No, Mama Lipsky. He's a cyborg. Part man, part machine. It's a long story. If there's one thing that he'd find offensive, it's someone calling him a robot."
Robocop then says, "Don't worry about it, Sheila. I get that a lot still. I presume that this is Ms. Lipsky."
"That she is, sir."
Robocop nods and says, "Good, in any case, you're just about in time to witness the testing. John, camera if you please." John nods and turns on the camera, nodding it's rolling the tape. "To start off, Auto-9 pistol with armor-piercing rounds." He fires nine bursts from the massive handgun, with the suit looking pristine still. "Impressive."
He then twirls it, puts it back into his thigh, picks up another weapon and says, "AK-47, loaded with armor-piercing rounds." He fires the assault rifle, emptying it's magazine in seconds.
He zooms in on the suit and nods, saying, "Glorious."
He puts it down and fires the other weapons, getting the same results, his smile getting wider with each pass.
When it gets down to the Cobra Assault Cannon, he says, "This is the big one we've been waiting for, guys. Here we go. Cobra Assault Cannon loaded with armor-piercing ammunition, ten round magazine."
Holding it waist level, he proceeds to open fire. As he fires, he starts humming, 'I've Been Working on the Railroad' and starts smiling as he does so.
Bernice covers her ears with every shot, wishing that she had asked about hearing protectors. But then she hears the strangest sound. The cyborg Commander laughing maniacally with every shot.
She turns to Sheila and yells out, "Is he all right? That's not a good sign!"
Sheila replies, "He only laughs like that when he's really excited about how things are going. And right now, he's really, really excited." The gunfire soon ends and Robocop puts the Cannon down.
He zooms in on the suit and notices some slight damage, with no penetration. "It's a pass. The new armored suit has passed rather well."
He then turns to the Officers and, with a large smile on his face, says, "I'm signing off on it. I can only order ten at a time, but I figure we'll have better armor before the month is out."
John asks, "Why such a small number at a time, Commander?"
"Other Departments have automatically started buying the new armored suits without testing the samples first. Fortunately, however, their lack of testing did not result in any Officer's deaths. They only went by the reputation that had preceded them."
Bernice then asks, "What reputation, Commander?"
"Armored suits utilized by 'Team Hawk'." At that, Bernice faints. "Oops, I think I said the wrong thing."
Sheila chuckles and says, "I think the shock about her son had finally gotten to her. She never really believed him to be a bad guy. A little screwy and misguided, perhaps. But never bad. That was until I told her all about Dr. D.'s schemes."
The other Officers nod their agreement with her assessment and elect to help carry Bernice into a nearby office. With an Officer standing watch outside the door, they allow her to recover from the news.
None of the Officers had noticed the State Department Lawyer had already left due to cold feet over what was on his mind.
Meanwhile, back in Middleton, Ron and Kim have announced their baby news. Norman is so ecstatic, he starts planning a special party for Kim for when she's about seven months along.
Bonnie and Hirotaka decide it'd be a good time for Jessica to learn driving Sand Hawk during the remainder of Kim's pregnancy. So, at that, they drive her out to the air field and start her training.
Jessica smiles when Hirotaka opens the door on Sky Baseand unstraps Sand Hawk. He then rolls it down the ramp and brings it to a stop inside the hangar still.
Meanwhile, Bonnie has Jessica follow her into the Locker Room, where they put on one-piece training suits and crash helmets, with Bonnie electing to ride with her.
While they're changing, Hirotaka sets up some targets along the tarmac. He gets them properly aligned along the tarmac, to match up with the gatling guns' turning/aiming pintle. Once done, he gets clear of the engagement zone.
As he does so, he sees both of them coming out of the Locker Room. He gives them both a nod, signaling that all is ready. Both ladies then head over to Sand Hawk, with Jessica grinning in anticipation.
Bonnie nods at this and says, "Okay, Jessica. Let's see what you've got." Jessica gets into the driver's seat and straps in, with Bonnie following suit in the passenger seat.
Jessica then starts the buggy and hits the accelerator, leaving a long smoking trail of rubber streaks as the dune buggy speeds off.
"Be very careful, Jessica. I'm not in the mood to destroy anything other than targets today! From now on, until Kim comes off of leave, your new trick will be learning to move like a snake. When you strike, you are to come up and blow your enemy to pieces."
Jessica nods and grins as she comes up on the first target. Swiveling the guns into target acquisition, she opens fire, obliterating the target.
She loses herself in the rush until she hears Bonnie yell, "We're going into the ditch!" Jessica recovers in time to avoid going in.
"This exercise will be a failure if we both die, Jessica! Keep your head. Treat this like an actual mission. Just because this is training, it doesn't mean you can enjoy it while you train. There'll be time for that later on as you reflect on it. Do you get me?"
Jessica nods and replies, "I get you, Bonnie."
Bonnie softens her voice and says, "Now, relax and stay focused. Now, show me the world, Jessica. Drive and fire as smooth as a baby's butt."
After that slight fiasco, the training session goes very well. Keeping her focus, Jessica goes through the remaining targets, destroying every single one.
As Jessica drives, Bonnie asks, "So, Jessica, how do you feel?"
Jessica contemplates the question before replying, "I don't feel anything."
"Good." On the drive back to the hangar, Bonnie starts her congratulations spiel.
"On behalf of the U.S.A., the Joint Chiefs, L.A.P.D., the Middleton Mad Dogs, the Department of Justice, Global Justice, the former 'Team Possible' and most of above all these, me, congratulations, Jessica. You have survived the first day of Sand Hawk Operation School."
When they reach the hangar, Jessica pulls the dune buggy back into Sky Base, with Bonnie spotting her. Once they get it strapped down securely, both ladies go into the Locker Room.
As they change, Jessica grins and says, "Bonnie, that was totally cool. I'd marry that thing if it was a human male."
Bonnie giggles and replies, "Better not let Kim hear you say that. She'll think you've gone cuckoo for sure. Sorry about earlier, Jessica. But, you've got to keep focused and relaxed at the same time. Very much like life, battle is very fluid. Just when you think it'll be all right, it throws you a massive curveball."
"Like when Ron got hurt and had to stop being the Mad Dog?" Bonnie nods and puts the helmets away. "But, you selected him to be Street Hawk. How much training did he go under?"
"Counting the weight training, it was mostly on the job. Of course, riding a scooter before his injury gave him some practice as well." At that, both ladies have a good laugh and exit the Locker Room.
Upon getting to Bonnie's car, they see Hirotaka finishing up cleaning up the area. When he finishes, he smoothly hops into the car with his eyebrow up.
At that, they both into the car and head back for Command Center to brief Norman and the others on her first day of training.
At the Federal Penitentiary, Josh Mankey is sitting in his cell, steamed at his current location. Suddenly, a Guard comes and says, "You got a Lawyer to see you, Mankey."
Josh nods and follows the Guard's instructions. Once the restraints are on, the Guard opens the door. Josh walks out of the cell and follows the Guard into one of the meeting rooms. He then hears a woman's voice.
"Hello, Mr. Mankey. I've been retained by your Mother. How would you like an appeal?" Josh then smiles sinisterly at the thought of freedom.
