Dark Hero

Chapter 4

"Ron, Ron"

"Ugh, what?" The teen known as Ron mumbled

"It's us" A familiar voice answered.

"Mum, Dad?" Ron said, looking around and seeing his parents, there bodies barely visible in the intense white light that surrounded them.

"That's right son" Ron's father responded.

"How could you Ron?" His mother cried "How could you let this happen to us?".

"But…mum, I didn't know" Ron said, panic rising in his chest.

"Idiot" His father snapped "You could have tried"

"I said I didn't know" Ron said, getting angry.

"You were always a failure" The blond man continued "You even failed to prevent your parent's deaths"

"I'm disappointed in you Ron" His mother added.

"It's not my fault" Ron said, falling to his knees and cradeling his head "IT'S NOT MY FAULT!".

"IT'S NOT MY FAULT!" A blond boy screamed into the darkness.

"Ron, what's wrong?" He heard a female voice as a crack of light entered his vision "What's not your fault?"

"I…I don't know" Ron cried.

Looking around, Ron found himself in a familiar bedroom, one that belonged to his best friend. He realized he was also in her bed, the sheet's slightly moist from his sweat and pushed back as he sat up. His eye's somewhat blinded from the light and tears, he looked up and saw a blurry shape of red and white.

"KP?" Ron said slowly.

"Almost" The blur said calmly.

"Mrs. P?" Ron tried again, this time squinting a bit.

"Bingo" The now shaper image of Kim's mother responded with a smile.

"What's happening?" The scared boy asked, his breaths becoming rapid and shallow "Why am I in Kim's bed, where are my mum and dad, WHERE ARE THEY?"

"Came down honey" The brain surgeon said, hugging the distressed child to restrain him, but to mainly make him feel safe "Just get some rest"

"Thank you" Ron said calmly, returning the older woman's embrace "But I can't sleep anymore".

"You sure?" Kim's mother asked, receiving a nod from the blond boy "Alright, but perhaps you'd like to put some clothes on"

"What?" Ron looked at the smiling woman, then down at his own body "Augh"

Ron quickly covered himself up with the sheets after finding out he was in the presence of his best friend's mum in only his birthday suit.

"Oh please" Mrs. Possible laughed, heading for the door and switching the light on "I'm a doctor, I see it all the time"

Making sure the door was completely closed, Ron exited his friend's bed and found a conveniently placed set of clothes for him to wear.

"Good thing I always keep a change of mission clothes handy" Ron thought to himself as he quickly got dressed.

Making his way through the familiar house, Ron found the bathroom and relieved himself. Washing his hands, Ron exited the bathroom and descended the stairs that led to the family room. Passing a clock in the main hall, Ron saw it was about three in the morning.

"Hey everyone" Ron said shyly as he entered the Possible family room.

"Ron" Kim said as she tore across the room and embraced her friend "I'm so glad you're okay"

"Thanks KP" Ron held her tightly against his sore body "Um, any reason I was missing my clothes when I woke up?"

"Oh, that" Kim began, shying away from her friend while blushing "When Shego kicked you, all that rubble shredded your clothes and gave you some nasty cuts"

"Please don't tell me you removed my clothes" Ron said, covering his face with embarrassment.

"What? NO" Kim shouted, her face rivaling the color of a tomato.

"That was me" Kim's mother laughed.

Ron was about to scream when he remembered what she told him a few minutes ago.

"Okay then" Ron said, sitting down on the couch.

"You sure you're okay son?" Mr. Possible asked.

"Yeah, I feel fine" Ron smiled at what he believed to be his second father "It's just, my parents".

The rocket scientist placed a comforting hand on the troubled boy's shoulder.

"They died trying to protect you and Kimmie Ron" Kim's dad said "Be proud that they risked their lives to keep you alive"

James Possible knew this was a lie, Ron's parents died so quickly they couldn't do anything, but his variation on the truth was probably easier for Ron to take without lashing out in greif. The boy just sat there, looking down at the floor between his legs.

"What happens now?" Kim asked, breaking the silence "You guys are gonna adopt Ron right?"

"We're not sure Kimmie cub" The brown haired man answered his daughter "After funeral and when the other red tape is sorted out, we'll see where we stand".

"KP" Ron said, looking up at his friend with tired eyes.

"Yeah Ron" Kim met his eyes with some hesitation, after seeing what the blond teen was now capable of, she feared his control.

"That thing I ripped from Shego" Ron began "Where is it?".

"Wade's got it" Kim answered "He's been analyzing it since yesterday, it's had him puzzled since he got it"

Ron smiled at the idea of Wade having trouble understanding something, usually the child has things figured out in under five minutes.

The warm atmosphere was shattered as something strange crashed through the window and dug itself into the wall.

"A fan?" Mr. Possible said, looking at the projectile.

Memories rushed to Ron's mind as he looked at the fan. Kim was busy looking out the window for the owner.

"It has something written on it" The rocket scientist said as he yanked the decorative weapon out of his wall.

'Stoppable-san, come outside when you read this' The text on the fan read.

"You know about this Ron?" Kim said as she handed the weapon to the blond teen "It could be a trap"

The scent that lingered on the fan entered Ron's nostrils. Drawing a deep breath, Ron closed his eye's so he could better focus on the scent. The strong smell of metal was present on the fan of course, but beneath that smell was the faint scent that reminded him of cherry blossoms.

"Don't worry KP" Ron said as he opened his eyes 'It's not a trap, but anyone comes with me, they'll be gone"

"Who will be gone?" Mrs. Possible asked, worry etched on her face.

"Friends" Ron said simply, exiting the house.

The sound of the door closing did not help release the tense atmosphere that remained in the living room.

"I'm worried about Ron" Kim said.

"We need to have faith in the boy" Kim's father responded, placing his hands on his daughter's shoulders "He wouldn't be out there if he knew it was dangerous".

Outside the Possible residence, Ron made his was down the driveway and onto the main road. The moon was full and cast a chill light, given Ron's skin a silvery glow.

"Hello?" Ron said to the darkness.

For a few seconds there was nothing, that was until the waiting child felt a hand grab his shoulder. Grabbing the hand with his own, Ron span around to palm strike the owner's face, but about an millimeter away from impact, Ron stopped.

"Very good Stoppable-san" The attacker said with a light voice "You were able to trap and counter my attack".

"Very nice" Ron said as he removed his hand to get a view at his foe, a smile formed on his lips "Yori"

"Hai Stoppable-san" Yori bowed after removing her hand from Ron's grasp.

"I thought I said you could call me Ron-san" Ron responded.

"Indeed you did" Yori smiled, inching closer to her American friend.

"Um, Yori, why are you-woah" Ron looked at the girl strangely before watching her disapear.

The next thing Ron knew was that he was on the ground, Yori straddling his chest and pinning his arms with her knees as she raised a fist.

"And I still managed to catch you off guard" The Japanese teen smiled.

"Quite so" Ron said through a laugh "But I've still been practicing"

Wrapping flexible legs around his opponent, Ron managed to pull the surprised girl off him and throw her to the cement road as she did him. Within a second, Ron had issued the same strategy as the oriental girl did to him.

"Do you yeild?" Ron said, leaning down to come close to Yori's face.

Just then, Ron did something he never expected, she kissed him! Flinching from her sudden contact, Yori saw an opening in Ron and threw his boy off her's. Drawing a small blade, Yori descended upon the boy and held the tiny weapon against his throat.

"Do you yeild?" Yori mimicked.

"I do" Ron smiled.

As they got up, both were breathing heavily and sweat glazed their faces. As time passed their breathing became calmer and they were able to talk normally.

"Thank you Ron-san" Yori bowed.

"You're welcome" Ron said "So I presume there's a reason you called me, except for that quick bout"

"You are correct" Yori answered "You're presence is required back at Yamanuchi, Master Sensai says it is important you return"

"Okay" Ron said as he watched a small jet touch down in the bushes a few meters away "If the master wishes it, I will go"

"Thank you Ron-san" Yori said she and Ron walked towards the black jet and boarded.

"Where did thing come from?" Ron asked the black haired girl as he looked around the small aircraft.

"We are ninja Ron-san" Yori answered "We use all that technology has to offer to achieve our missions.

"I guess funds aren't a problem in your profession" Ron said as he watched the ground shrink away as the jet blasted off.

"Greeting's Ron-san" The elderly ninja known as Master Sensai said warmly as the American boy and Japanese student entered the hidden academy.

"It is an honour to see you again Sensai" Ron bowed with respect "I was told there was something you wish to discuss with me"

"In the morning my child" The old master said, leading the two into the academy "Right now you need your sleep, I dare say you will require all your strength to deal with what I have to share"

"As you wish master" Ron bowed again, retiring to his room from his previous visit.

A few hours passed and Ron was quietly sitting in his room, his shirt off and the window open, snow flakes gently flowing in as a small storm passed over the acadamy. From the corner of his eye, Ron was the faint glow of candles.

"Ron-san?" The voice belonging only to Yori asked "Why are you still awake"

"I can't sleep" Ron answered "So much has happened to me recently, I feel that if I fall asleep, something will happen, I will lose another person I care about".

"Your fears are well valid" Yori said, setting the candle down on the tatami floor "But you must remember, all you can do is try your best, even if your loved one's die, it is not your fault".

Ron stayed silent as he let this new information process, thinking about it made him feel more at peace.

"Thank you Yori" Ron said, smiling at the Japanese teen who wore a large robe that hid her body.

"It is quite alright Ron-san" Yori smiled back "If I may ask, why is the window open, do you not feel the cold?"

"I don't know" Ron said, looking through the wooden segments of the window "Ever since a few days ago, I am always warm"

"Ron-san, who is always warm" Yori began as she pulled at the catch on her robe "Please warm me"

Ron turned around and watched as the robe, the only thing the dark eyed girl was wearing, cascaded to the floor, leaving her naked.

"Ugh, this is too painful" The red-headed teen back in America raged on to her computer friend "I need to know how Ron is".

"Calm down Kim" Wade said "I can let you know how he is".

"You rock Wade" Kim smiled "Give me a visual".

"No can do Kim" The dark child said "Ron's at such a high altitude, the best I can give you is audio".

"It'll have to do" Kim said, anticipation bubbling in her body.

A few taps on his keyboard and Wade had a surprised look on his face.

"Ah, Kim" He began, looking worried "I think we should pass on the up link, we should wait till the morning"

"Dammit Wade" Kim said, getting agitated "Just patch it through"

Tapping a few keys, Wade vanished from the screen, a single green light that measured the sound appeared instead. A few seconds passed and Kim threw her Kimmunicator onto her bed and ran out of her room crying her eye's out.

From the small device on Kim Possible's bed, the sounds of two people moaning eachother's names as they made love filled the room.

Holy Crap! Who was expecting that? I'm sure some of you think they're a little young for that, but seeing how this is set after the movie, I thought it was okay, plus this is a major plot twist. This isn't going to be a retelling of the guyver sereies, I just used that stuff to make a good intro, though I will continue to use aspects from it, I don't want this to be a retelling. Not so much violence as the others but I promise there will be some fighting next time (Also the return of a character no-one thought would be back). Keep those reviews coming, and see you next time – Wolvie.
