Meanwhile...
A lighthearted girl stretched out on her bed. She had pale skin with cherry colored hair that was clean-cut and stylish. Due to her busy and demanding schedule she was enjoying her first nap in days. Her best friend knew better than anyone else not to disturb her.
Kimberly Anne Possible was an overachieving student a Middleton High in her senior year. She was involved in almost everything and had the 411 on just about anyone or anything. She was popular and lived what some people would like to believe to be a dream life. But being beautiful, smart and talented was tiring. There was also the fact that she was a spy who fought against crazy villains who just never gave up on global domination.
Ron frowned as he looked at her. He returned to his game. 'Eventually she's going to have to give up some of these extracurricular activities. I can barely keep up.' He thought as he tried desperately to fight off a knight on Everquest. His pal Rufus popped out of his pocket and saved him just in time.
"Thanks buddy." He whispered patting Rufus on the head.
Kim sighed.
"Oh sorry KP," Ron apologized, "Did we wake you up?"
"Not really." Kim confessed. She hadn't been sleeping in the first place.
Kim looked at her Kimmunicator, which was secured, tightly in her hands. It seemed to be more demanding than ever lately. It would only be a matter of minutes before the world needed her again.
"Are you okay Kim?"
"Huh?"
"I said," Ron, repeated, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah... sure."
"Do you want me to leave?" Ron asked concerned. She looked as if her head might explode.
"If you want." Kim told him absently as she finally let the Kimmunicator drop onto the mattress.
Kim heard Ron shut down the computer and got up to leave. But before Kim could enjoy the satisfaction of complete serenity, her Kimmunicator rang. Kim growled. 'Why does this damn thing always have to ring when I'm ready to relax?'
Ron froze in the doorway and spun around. Kim stared at him miserably. Ron shrugged with nothing to say to her. She had chosen this life, not him. Kim sighed and casually answered it.
"What's the sitch?" She asked not really caring.
"Woah Kim, are you alright?" Asked her favorite ten-year old genius.
"She's starting to feel the pressure." Ron said taking the Kimmunicator from her hands.
"Am not." She argued weakly.
"Finally," Wade said with a laugh.
"Am not!" Kim resisted with a bit more energy.
Ron and Wade both exchanged grins as Kim propped her head up with her arms and was able to look at Wade. "What's the sitch?" She tried again.
"That's more like it." Wade laughed.
"Whatever."
Wade cracked his knuckles which made Kim shiver. 'Revolting.' She thought. But typing at a keyboard all day had to be tiring even on Wade. Suddenly she felt new energy inside. 'I can handle another mission.' She convinced herself.
"Well," Wade said, "I found out some top-secret information."
Kim slapped her forehead. No big surprise there.
"Go on!" Ron said excitedly. Just the mere mention of the words 'top' and 'secret' made him bounce up and down.
"In about a week there is going to be a villain's convention at the Crown Plaza hotel." He announced proud to have stumbled upon this information.
"So?" Kim was well aware that these sorts of things went on all the time. Sometimes she didn't have time for petty things like this.
"I don't think you get it," Wade continued, "Drakken is coming to this one."
"Yeah?" Kim pretended to sound enthusiastic, "He always does. He buys some illegal items from the dealer's room. Nothing remotely urgent."
"Shego is too. In fact this is supposed to be the biggest event for villains. It only comes once a year. It's the biggest villains convention to ever exist. And some of the things discussed there... and sold there..."
There was no need for Wade to continue any further.
Kim sighed once more.
"Alright," She gave in, "Where is this Crown Plaza?"
Wade smiled at her, "This was the tricky part. There are many Crown Plazas. But I'm assuming it's the big one.
"The big one?" Ron asked doubtfully.
"I belonged to a lonely billionaire woman. She never married so she amused herself by vacationing around the world with a bunch of really fancy summer homes. The Crown Plaza is one of her more famous palaces in Florida. It's really large and when she died they turned it into an extremely expensive hotel."
Kim really didn't need a history lesson right now.
"So there are rich people there?" Ron asked dumbly.
"Yes Ron, only rich people could afford to stay there."
Rufus popped out of Ron's shirt and nodded in agreement, "Uh huh! Rich!"
Wade babbled on about the woman. Kim inattentively twirled her hair. She occasionally smiled and nodded until he fast-forwarded to the important part.
"So," He said, "I need you to go to the gathering and keep an eye on Drakken. But the security is tight."
Kim nodded; she was very used to that.
"But I made you fake ID's!" Wade exclaimed.
It was at this moment Kim noticed laminated cards printing out of her Kimmunicator. She reached inside and pulled out one with care. There was no photo on it. Only her name and classification. She stared at it and cocked her eyebrow,
"Lin Surmountable?"
"Like it?" Wade asked with a laugh.
Kim sniggered, "I'll live."
The ID also stated that she was an average thug. It wasn't very questionable. There was no avoiding this mission. Wade would surely force her to do this one. She gazed at Ron who was bouncing up and down as he gawked at his ID.
"Don Controllable!" He explained giddily.
While Ron fawned over his ID Kim received more information from Wade. The hotel wouldn't have a reservation for them so they would have to find other ways to keep an eye on Drakken and Shego who were staying on the fourteenth floor in the hotel. Kim really didn't want to devote her valuable time to making sure Drakken didn't do anything sneaky but it looks like that was how things were going to go down.
"Soooo..." Wade asked eyeing Kim, "Will you do it?"
Kim hesitated then nodded, "Yeah."
Wade then took the measures to give her even further information on what she should need to bring and what precautions were going to be taken. Same old, same old. Kim muttered, "I've got it. Chill. No big."
Nothing ever was exciting during her missions anymore. They always brought the same equipment and stopped Drakken before he did something 'catastrophic'. It was a regular old merry-go-round. She doubted if something really horribly sinister would take place. But then again, Drakken never had been a smooth sailor had he?
