Kim Possible

Frequency of Evil

Chapter 4

The gentleman standing over Shego gracefully raised his free hand to its lips in a universal hush movement. The creature then brought the scalpel bearing hand down and with a fluid motion sliced through Shego's upper part of her costume.

Pushing her chin firmly down on her chest, Shego could see that so far the creature hadn't broken her skin but had merely gotten the material out of the way so it could begin dissecting her in earnest.

Shego was a brave woman. She had been in many fights before. Most of them would have been certainly been called dangerous. A few could have even been called life threatening. But never had she faced certain unavoidable death.

Shego was scared and she wasn't afraid to admit it.

"I thought someday I would die a violent death but I always thought it would be much later in my life and in a fight. Not like some lab creature strapped to a table and hacked apart. I never even had a chance to fall in love! Hell I didn't even get a chance to seriously date anyone even! I don't want to die like this! Not now!" Shego mentally screamed to herself as she tried to struggle.

As the creature lowered the scalpel to her chest, Shego was determined to face her death squarely in the eye but as the cold blade touched her chest she couldn't stop herself from closing her eyes.

Feeling a sudden jolt on the table Shego snapped open her eyes and saw someone standing over her straddling her tied down form. She was staring up a baggy panted butt and craning her neck a bit she could see a shock of blond hair on her defender's head.

"Stoppable is saving me?" She questioned in her own mind.

Turning her head she could see the creature with the scalpel was several feet away from the table and shaking its head slowly. Obviously Stoppable had did a flying kick and managed to knock him away from her before he could cut into her but they were far from safe. She was still tied down and the other creepy gentlemen were moving towards them. Stoppable couldn't possibly fight them all off.

Turning her head Shego could see a few yards away Kim Possible was battling against the lunatics and there was no way she could join them to help.

Drakken was curled up into a ball near Kim's feet and was certainly no help. His mouth was moving and Shego was certain that if they could speak she would be hearing him calling for his mother.

Turning her head back she watched as Stoppable lashed out a kick at something that was out of her sight above her head. Ron had turned during the kick and now Shego was forced to stare up at his crotch. She could see Stoppable gesturing at his lips and then gesturing with his hand. Turning her head she could see he was signaling Kim. Kim jumped backwards to avoid a lunatic and reaching into her backpack she hurled what looked like a lipstick to Ron without taking her attention off the attacker in front of her.

Ron snapped the lipstick out of mid air and twisting the cap he pointed it down at Shego. Shego watched as a red laser beam shoot out of the lipstick and a few moments later she felt the constriction on her arm lessen and realized that Ron had used the laser to cut through the straps holding her down.

Ron quickly shot the laser beam again and both of Shego's arms were free. Shego immediately fired up her plasma fireballs and started hurling them at the surrounding gentlemen.

The fireballs did no damage to them but the physical impacts of them did cause the creeps to back up a little giving her and Ron some breathing room.

Shego tried to pull her legs up to stand up but her feet were still tied down. Ron noticed her struggles and bent over backwards in a gymnastic maneuver so he could aim the laser and sever the straps holding her feet without having to take the time to turn around normally.

This action caused Stoppable's crotch to become even more prominent in Shego's view and it also caused the pants to become tighter. Shego blinked in shock.

"Who knew the kid was so flexible? He must have learned that maneuver from hanging around cheerleaders so much." Shego's eyes widened in shock as she noticed his crotch directly in her view. "Whoa! Stoppable has quite a package there. If he was to hire Fedex to ship it they would have to charge extra for size and weight." She thought to herself in wonder. Who knew the buffoon in addition to being so flexible was also hung like a horse?

Feeling the tension in her legs release she realized that Stoppable had managed to cut the straps on her feet and grabbing the edge of the table with her hands she pulled her legs from between his and did a flip landing on her feet facing him, at the same moment he returned from his backwards bend. The result was they were extremely close face to face for a moment.

Shego could read concern for her welfare in his eyes and Ron could see surprise and something else he couldn't identify in hers. Suddenly Ron's eyes shifted slightly to the side and he lashed out a fist past Shego's head as she noticed a shift in the table. At almost the same time Shego saw one of the lunatic creatures leap up on the table behind Ron's back and bring its hands up to smash down on him.

Charging up a fireball she tossed it past Ron's ear smashing it into the creature's face knocking it off the table.

Turning back to back, her and Ron continued to battle the creatures as they leapt up on the table. It was only a matter of time before they were overwhelmed and they both knew it.

Turning suddenly Shego faced Ron's back

Kim Possible looking up from her own fight was certain that Shego was about to sacrifice Ron by pushing him into the creatures to make her escape. She was therefore surprised when Shego wrapped her arm around Ron's waist and doing a backflip leaped off the table with Ron being carried along.

Putting one hand out, Shego stopped her and Ron's head from slamming into the floor and pushing off she flipped her and Ron onto some metal storage boxes a few yards away from where they had been. They were safe, at least for the moment.

Kim turned her attention back to her own fight with a silent sigh of relief.

At her feet Drakken continued to huddle with his hands over his eyes.

Shego if she were to be honest with herself, enjoyed the feel of holding on to Ron so much she was reluctant to let go of him once they landed. It wasn't easy being a woman and a villain. Almost all of the guys she came into contact with were either scum or terrified of her. It was kind of nice to be holding on to a cute looking guy and not having him either faint from fear or try to pull a weapon to force her to do something. Finally letting go of him she allowed him to turn and face her.

Ron did and with his eye growing wide he suddenly looked up and past her.

"What? Did he suddenly find me repulsive? Did he notice that I held on a little longer than was necessary? What!" Shego thought desperately.

Ron without looking at Shego reached into his backpack and pulled a green windbreaker he carried in case it got chilly. Hey he traveled with Kim to all over the world. You never knew when a jacket might come in handy. Being careful not to glance at Shego he held it out to her.

"Huh?" Shego asked forgetting that neither of them could still make a sound.

Ron nodded his head in her direction while keeping his eyes looking up.

Shego glanced down at herself and remembered that the gray freak had sliced open her shirt. She was standing in front of Ron Stoppable totally exposed from the waist up and what was worse, running for her life had excited her and her breasts were very proudly proclaiming that fact to anyone who cared to look.

Shego was a brash woman and no one ever called her shy. If she had the ability to speak, she would probably have asked Stoppable if he liked what he saw or was Kimmie as developed as she was?

But since she couldn't speak she merely took the jacket from him and shrugged into it. Zipping it up fully she reached out and touched Ron letting him know it was now safe to look.

Ron glanced down but then just as quickly looked away. His jacket wasn't a very heavy one. Just a windbreaker and Shego's nipples were still quite visible by the impressions they were making under the jacket's surface. Ron silently vowed to himself that if he got the jacket back he was never going to wash it again and hang it in a place of honor in his room. That is if he could keep Kim from finding out or noticing.

Shego rolled her eyes when she realized Ron was still not going to look directly at her. Here was a guy that not only had just saved her life; he was also trying to protect her virtue? Reaching out she touched his arm again. This time when Ron glanced at her Shego lashed out with her hand and catching him by the back of the head she pulled him towards her and crushed his mouth against hers in a passionate kiss.

Finally letting go she carefully mouthed to the flustered Ron so he would understand without having to hear her.

"Thank you for saving me back there."

Ron could only dazedly nod his head.

Kim Possible looking up from her fight saw Shego forcing a kiss upon Ron. At least that is how she chose to see it. After all Ron didn't put his arms around Shego and it was obvious Shego initiated the kiss.

"One thing is for sure, when Ron gets that jacket back, I'm going to burn it!" Kim thought to herself. Using her anger she punched a lunatic jumping at her and sent him flying.

Ron stared into Shego's eyes for a moment. There was something there. Some emotion but Ron couldn't place what it was. Women just didn't look at him the way Shego was right now and it was confusing him greatly. And by the tightening of his pants, it was obviously somewhat exciting him too. With Shego safe, Ron knew he had to get back to Kim's side. He had only saved Shego because he would never have been able to look himself in the mirror again if he had stood by while a woman had been butchered. At least that is what Ron tried to tell himself but as Shego moved past him to look down at where Kim was battling, Ron had to admit to himself he loved the way her hips swayed and how her hair moved.

Ron moved over to stand beside Shego and touching her arm he got her attention. Pantomiming he gestured at himself and then down to Kim trying to show he was going to fight with her. He then pointed at Shego and pointed at a skylight above them trying to get her to flee while she had a chance. After all, the gray bald headed guys wanted her heart, not Kim's or Ron's, they were just going to kill them for interfering in their harvesting.

Shego raised an eyebrow and then shook her head. She pointed at Ron and then herself and then pointed at the skylight meaning why don't they both escape.

Ron shook his head somewhat violently and pointed back at Kim and then himself. In other words, He would never leave without Kim. Shego shrugged. She pretty much knew that would be his choice but she felt she had to ask since he had tried to get her to escape on her own.

Shego then pointed at Ron, then pointed at Kim and finally pointed at herself and back at Kim, meaning if Ron went to fight with Kim then Shego would go to.

Ron gestured at Shego and then made a motion as if someone was unzipping a jacket… Or cutting someone open and then made another gesture at the skylight. Shego realized that Ron was saying if she stayed she might get captured again and the gray dudes would try to cut her open again.

Shego ignited the green fire around her hands and held them up as if to say I'm a big girl and can take care of myself.

Ron raised one eyebrow and pointed at the gentlemen standing around the table just waiting as if to remind her that her fire didn't make much of an impact on them before.

Shego carefully mouthed the words. "You talk too much. You know that?" She then reached around Ron's waist in a half hug and leapt down carrying them from the crates to land beside Kim.

Quickly Shego and Ron put their backs to Kim's back protecting each other's blind sides and continued to fight. Between them, Drakken continued to huddle on the floor and silently whimper.

Rufus wondering what all the jumping and tumbling was about opened the flap on Ron's pocket and poked his little head out to take a look. At that exact moment a running, shambling lunatic made a dive towards Ron and Rufus came face to face with the bandaged face creature.

"YIKES!" Rufus shouted and dove back into the pocket.

In the almost perfect silence of the fight in the lair, Rufus yell sounded like a pistol shot. Ron, Shego and Kim glanced over at Ron's pocket. Even Dr. Drakken stopped his silent whimpering to look up in surprise.

But the reaction from the lunatics and the Gentlemen was even more pronounced.

The lunatics leapt away from the humans fighting for their life and took a position in front of the Gentlemen as if guarding them from something. The Gentlemen themselves raised their hands to their ears as if the sound in someway annoyed or irritated them.

Ron his eyes widening in realization reached into his pocket and pulled Rufus out and held him out in the palm of his hand.

Rufus took one look at the gray freaks in front of him and let out a yell as Ron gently squeezed him.

The lunatics looked over at their masters. The Gentlemen with their permanent smiles on their face seemed to grin even larger and shaking their heads slightly pointed at the group of defiant humans.

Once again the lunatics started leaping and bounding towards them.

Things were looking bleak. Ron knew he had the answer but what to do about it? Reacting Ron threw Rufus through the air over the heads of the approaching lunatics towards the table the wooden box was sitting on.

Standing next to the table was another of Drakken's synthodrones, stupidly watching the fight.

Rufus landed on the table. It had been a perfect throw. One any football player would have been proud of. Rufus looked around in confusion. Obviously his master wanted him to do something but for some reason wouldn't talk to him. Running over to the standing synthodrone Rufus pushed with his head on the gun holster hanging on the synthetic creature's hip and managed to push the laser gun out. Turning the small naked mole rat braced itself and took aim at one of the gray Gentlemen and fired the gun.

The kick of the weapon knocked Rufus back a little but his aim had been true. The laser blast hit the gentlemen squarely in the side of the head and… Did absolutely nothing. The Gentleman didn't even bother to glance over at the mole rat.

Rufus looked over at Ron and raised its arms in a shrug.

Ron taking a moment from punching a lunatic, made gestures at the mole rat, holding his hands up he pantomimed a square box.

"Huh?" Rufus squeaked. The laser blast hadn't attracted any attention at all but that tiny squeak was enough to draw the attention of the Gentlemen and they turned as one to stare at him.

Ron pantomimed the square box once again.

Rufus scratched his small head and looked around. Spotting a rather plain looking wooden box sitting on the table he pointed at that.

Ron violently shook his head yes and pantomimed a gun and then the box again.

Rufus couldn't understand what was so important about a wooden box but leveling the large gun as well as he could he took aim and fired.

The blast hit the box squarely and for one terrifying moment Ron thought maybe the box could resist lasers as easily as the gray skinned creatures could. But his fear was groundless. The box exploded in a million pieces and the wispy fog like clumps flew through the air once again. Most of the clumps of fog flowed out of the room and was gone but the individual ones that had came from Shego, Kim, Dr. Drakken and Ron flew to them and into their mouths.

"BOO-YAH! Way to go Rufus!" Ron shouted as his voice came back.

The lunatics immediately leapt in front of the Gentlemen again, while the Gentlemen themselves started backing away towards the still open portal holding their ears.

Ron frowned. He was so sure he figured it all out. That sound was the Gentlemen's weakness. So why didn't it harm them more. Maybe it took a higher sound? Like maybe a woman's scream? Ron like most guys knew that very few things could hurt your ears more than an angry or scared woman's scream.

"Shego! Kim! Scream!" He yelled at them.

The lunatics were crouching down and it was obvious they were preparing an all out attack before Ron and his group could harm their masters.

"What?" Shego asked in confusion and it appeared even Kim hadn't figured it all out yet and was going to question him.

So Ron did the one thing that all guys knew was a sure fire way to get a woman to scream bloody murder at you.

With a silent prayer that he would survive what he was about to do Ron reached down and cupping his hands he reached over and pinched Shego and Kim's butts at the same time.

"RONALD STOPPABLE!" Kim shouted

"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING!" Shego added.

The result was instant and spectacular. The lunatics fell back as if a bomb had blown up in front of them and their masters, the Gentlemen reached up to their ears… Right before their heads exploded.

Ron stared at the carnage for a moment before saying. "Ewww. Gross. That is just sick and wrong!"

The lunatics lay on the floor where they had fallen twitching slightly. The sounds didn't hurt them like it did their masters but with their masters' death, the force keeping them alive was gone and as everyone watched in sick fascination, their heads started melting out through their eyes. Black and gooey it ran out as their heads sank in on itself like a balloon slowly losing air.

"I am so not going to clean that up." Shego added.

"You think you are all that Kim Possible but I'm not beaten yet!" Drakken shouted.

"Huh?"

"What?"

"Aww come on!"

Ron, Kim and Shego turned to find that while they had been distracted by the Gentlemen and the Lunatics deaths that Dr. Drakken had raced back to his evil scanner.

Shego felt her light green skin pale as she realized he had removed all the cursed items from their display cases and had piled them all together on the scanner table in one pile.

"Are you out of your mind!" She screamed at him. "We barely survived the scalpel bit and you are going to use all the items at once!"

Drakken just grinned an evil grin and reached up to throw the switch.
