Kim Possible
Frequency of Evil
Chapter 8
Shego watched as the woman Kim and Ron called Dr. Director calmly looked at the spot where Kim had a short while ago jumped through to join Ron.
"You knew she was going to do that, didn't you?" She finally asked.
Dr. Director turned to look at the villainess. "There was a 70/30 percent chance she would do it, yes. Kim desperately wants to join my agency but you would have to be nearly blind to not realize those two love each other."
Shego snorted in an unlady like fashion. "Yeah everyone can see it but them I think."
Dr. Director nodded her head. "That is the way sometimes it is with people in love. They are the last to see it." She nodded her head at where the chains continued to twist and writhe. "If Ron and Kim are successful the chains will disappear, so I shall continue my watch here."
Shego nodded her head. "I'll go keep an eye on the cheerleaders in the gym to make sure they don't get wise to what is going on and start to panic."
Dr. Director with Will Du by her side nodded her head once. She didn't fear Shego would try anything. Where did she have to go?
Walking to the doors to the gym Shego actually did peek in to make sure everything was okay. The snob who had insulted her was leading the other cheerleaders in routines but Bonnie was messing up big time. The other cheerleaders were watching but so far they had put it off to Bonnie being worried about the competition tomorrow and annoyed that their team leader Kim not showing up.
Turning Shego quietly shut the gym doors and placing her back against the wall next to the doors she allowed herself to slide down till she was resting on the floor. Reaching into a pocket she pulled out the envelope Ron had given her with Kim's name on it.
Looking around and figuring if Ron didn't come back there was no possibility that Kim would either Shego allowed one hand to flare with green fire slightly and started to steam the envelope open.
"Tch, tch, tch." Rufus scolded her from her shoulder.
Shego just ignored him however.
As the envelope came open Shego was surprised to find three more envelopes folded and tucked inside. One of them had Kim's name on it again but one of the other ones had Wade's name and Shego's own name on the last one.
For no particular reason Shego decided to hold off reading her envelope and Kim's and steamed open Wade's first. Pulling out a single sheet of paper she read what Ron had wrote to the computer genius.
"Wade buddy, if you are reading this letter it means I've died in the up coming mission. I know there is an excellent chance that is what will happen so I'm typing this up on Kim's computer and printing these letters out just in case.
I just want to tell you that you have been a very good friend to me and Kim and I want you to be there for Kim when she has to deal with my death. Don't let her blame herself and make sure she knows there was nothing she could have done to prevent my death. These Cenobite creatures have to be stopped or it could be the end for everyone. The world needs a Kim Possible in it but they won't even notice if a Ron Stoppable isn't. So try to make Kim see this.
Bye Wade.
Your friend, Ron Stoppable."
Shego shook her head. "Like I said earlier, Ron has more heart than brains."
She then looked at the last two letters. Deciding to read Kim's next she carefully steamed it open with her fire. She would reseal the letters and when Ron came back alive she would hand them back to him. He need know she peeked. And the fact that Ron would be successful and make it back alive was not in doubt in Shego's mind. She wouldn't let it be otherwise. The very thought that either Ron or Kim could die was not one she was comfortable with so she simply ignored the possibility.
Pulling Kim's letter out of its envelope she carefully smoothed it out and began to read.
"Kim. This is so hard to put into words in the very short time I have before you come back and see me at your computer so I'm not going to mince words and just tell you how I feel.
I love you Kim. I've always loved you from the days of pre-K when you first looked at me and said I was weird but you liked me anyway. I don't want to cause you pain or make you think that you are responsible for everything that happened in my life after that point but…
You were.
I always tried to be a little different from everyone else because I always remembered those words. 'You are weird, but I like you anyway.'
I even think that shaped my choice in pets. And if it did I need to thank you big time K.P. Rufus has been more than a pet to me, outside of you he's been my bestest friend. Almost like a member of the family that just never wore clothes.
But back to you Kim.
If you are reading this letter it means I have died.
I don't want you to feel responsible.
I don't want you to blame yourself.
I want you to promise me that you will find someone nice to fall in love with and forget me.
Yeah I know, hell of a time to tell you this after admitting I've always loved you but I don't want you to waste your life because of me. Find someone that makes you feel complete and be happy Kim.
Love, Ron."
Shego heard sniffling and looked over at her shoulder where Rufus was sniffing like he was crying.
"You can read?" She asked in surprise.
Rufus vigorously shook his head no.
Shego frowned but then placed Kim's letter carefully back into its envelope and sealed it shut.
She looked at the letter addressed to her and steamed it open.
"Shego,
If you are reading this then Kim has found your envelope after you give her the letter I addressed to her. That is I hope you will agree to keep the letters and give them to Kim if I die on this mission. I plan to ask you to do that before I leave for the mission.
So you are reading this and I've died… Unless of course you steamed them open to find out what I had to say while I'm gone on the mission."
Shego stopped reading and looked around. "Damn he's good." She said out loud and then continued to read.
"You are probably asking yourself, what could Stoppable loser have to say to me?
Knowing there is a really good chance I'm going to die on this mission I just thought I should say what I've been feeling and thinking and get it out in the open.
I am really attracted to you Shego.
I know that probably creeps you out but I had to say it.
I can remember the first time Wade called us before Kim and I had met you and showed us a Wanted poster of yours.
I thought at that time you were one of the hottest looking criminals I had ever seen.
And I wondered what could force such a gorgeous woman into a life of villainy.
Kim has let it slip that at one time you used to be a hero.
I would like to see you be a hero again.
I've talked to Dr. Director and although she is extremely reluctant, she has promised me that she will offer you a position with Global Justice. It will be a second chance for you and let you work off your debt to the world and be a hero again at the same time."
Shego stopped reading and made a face. She didn't want to be a hero again. She liked being a villain. The hours were good and they made more money than heroes did.
She began to read again.
"You probably just made a face and thought to yourself that heroes are losers and that it is not for you."
Shego stopped reading and looked around once again. "Damn it Ron stop getting into my head." She muttered.
She started to read again.
"Please don't let Kim see this letter but I felt I had to tell you that the kiss you gave me in Drakken's lair after I helped you fight off those weird silent creatures was the most incredible thing I have ever felt in my life."
Shego paused once again and smiled a smug smile. It had been pretty incredible for her too. She hadn't exaggerated to the others when she had told them earlier that Ron was a surprisingly good kisser.
She returned to reading the letter.
"Course I never managed to kiss Kim or any other girl in my life."
"Way to ruin a moment there Ron." Shego thought to herself with a sour look.
"I'm sorry that nothing more could ever be between us.
One: You are a villain and I'm a good guy. Although I hope that after my death you take up Dr. Director's offer and join G.J. and become a good guy once again. Er. I mean a good girl. Well you know what I mean.
Two: You are incredibly hot and sexy and I am a total loser."
Shego frowned as she once again paused in reading. "Damn this guy has the lowest self esteem I have ever come across in my life. He's not a total loser. I've never met a more loyal, sweet, or caring guy in all my life. All he needs is a little bit of self confidence and maybe a change of clothing and he would be totally hot." Shego once again thought to herself.
Returning back to the letter once again, Shego continued to read.
"And thirdly and most important reason there could never be anything between you and I… I am totally in love with my best friend Kim.
I know, I know. She can never return my feelings and I am happy with that, really. It's enough that she is my best friend and could never think of me as boyfriend material. For a while I did at least try to find someone besides Kim but I always ended up sabotaging my chances.
I love Kim and just can't see myself cheating against her.
Even though since she doesn't feel the same way about me as I do about her and it wouldn't really be cheating. I can't change that is how I feel.
Man am I so glad this is all coming out after I'm dead. Because if this was to be known before I died, it would kill me with embarrassment.
I have to wrap this up. I can see Kim coming back now and I really so don't want her to read this letter!
In closing, please give the hero thing a chance again Shego. You almost died from some villain's lame brain plan to take over the world this night and I really hate for something to happen to you after I'm dead because of another villain's plan blowing up in your face.
You deserve to be happy and have someone love you.
Hopefully your friend,
Ron Stoppable."
Shego continued to sit silently in the school's hallway after reading the letter.
"So Ron thinks I'm hot and sexy but would never do anything because he loves Kim? If they get back alive from this mission I could arrange an accident for Kim…"
Shego shook her head to get rid of that thought.
"No! Ron would hate me forever if I harmed Kim. Besides I never really wanted to kill Kim. She's a good fighter and I really enjoyed our fights. One of the few things worth anything in this world was the times I fought with Kim.
But she does have other enemies besides me and Dr. D. If they make it back alive she might be killed later by one of her other enemies and then I could rush in to comfort Ron…"
Shego thought for a moment.
"That's not likely to happen. Anything that could kill Kim would probably take out Ron as well. And he's not going to let her go off somewhere dangerous without him right by her side. Damn.
I should just lock us all up in an empty warehouse after this is all over and force a threesome on Kim and Ron. Then Ron could have his precious Kimmie and I would get a chance at Ron."
Shego couldn't help a smile come across her face imaging the three of them together. Oh Kim would be reluctant at first but Shego was sure she could change the young woman's mind given time and Shego had to believe Ron would be okay with another woman in his life as long as he believed he wasn't cheating on Kim and Kim was okay with it.
Sure the thoughts were kinky but Shego was a villain. She was allowed to have slightly less than pure thoughts.
Seeing a shadow fall across the paper she was reading, Shego looked up nervously. It was just Dr. Director.
"I promised Ron I would talk to you about giving up your life as a criminal and perhaps joining Global Justice." The woman with the eye patch stated as if she expected Shego to just laugh at her.
She wondered to herself what the paper Shego was reading was about and why the strange green skinned woman was sitting in the hallway with a strange smile on her face but dismissed the thoughts from her mind with a slight shrug.
It really wasn't her business.
If she had her way she would have just thrown Shego into the strongest most secure jail cell that Global Justice had but she had promised Ron that she would talk to the woman about changing her life and since Ron was risking his life to try and save the world, she owed him that much at least.
To her surprise Shego looked like she had been caught with her hand in the cookie jar and quickly stuffed the paper into an envelope and quickly shoved it and two other envelopes into a pocket of the windbreaker jacket she was wearing.
"Just how would that work? I mean I wanted in a lot of countries for past misdeeds. How would you clear all that?" Shego surprised Dr. Director by asking.
"The villainess Shego would simply cease to exist and you would be given a new name. Kind of like the witness protection system. Instead of sitting in a prison cell somewhere you would be working off your debt to society by fighting evil instead of perpetuating it."
Dr. Director continued to wait for Shego to laugh or tell her what she could do with her job offer but to her complete surprise the young green skinned woman looked like she was considering it.
"I'll think about it." Shego finally said.
