Howdy all! We broke 1000 hits! I'm ever so happy at the positive feedback on my past few chapters. (Y'all know how to make a guy feel loved).
shego741: Cry no more, I have returned with a new chapter!
heavensong: So much praise! And so much cash! Haha. I'm glad I have helped inspire your art. And thank you for such nice reviews!
Keep on Reviewing!
And of course I still own nothing.
Though I just began my Deviant Art account so I should be uploading stuff onto that soon enough. But still Disney owns everything. I just try to keep what they kill alive.
Thought of the Day: "Love is the difficult realization that something other than oneself is real."

Onto Chapter VI!
Drakken, having finally escaped the clutches of his mother slowly climbed the stairs to seek refuge in his room. His eyes stared fixatedly on his feet, watching each footfall as he neared his sanctum. His mind was far away occupied by dozens of thoughts on world dominance and how to destroy that blasted Kim Possible. His mind was so distant he failed to see the green and black figure ahead of him until impact.
"Watch where you're goin Dr.D! Or need I remind you green means go…but around!" Shego growled her temper flaring at Drakkens clumsiness.
"Oh…uh, sorry Shego, I was thinking."
"You were? Someone call the Press, Dr.Drakken was thinking. Well go think somewhere out of my way." She said and stomped off downstairs.
So much for having her sleep all day, and apparently she didn't have a good sleep either. Oh well… He thought and returned to his pondering. But now a new thought rose above the rest and rooted itself firmly in his conscious.
Why doesn't she love me? Simple, you are a blue freak who no one but your mother has loved your entire life. You're a loser, she's perfect and your not. It's that simple. He sighed, "Your right, 100 right. I'm worthless; I couldn't get a plan to work even if it killed me. I don't deserve her nor do I deserve a mother as great as mine."
Drakken sat down at the end of his bed, barely aware that he had reached his destination and sighed once again. Tonight, He thought. Tonight I will relieve them of the burden. On what better of days too? My birthday, when Mother first met me and the day she will last see me. To Shego it won't matter much though, she never remembered my birthday anyway; at least I saw her one last time. A single tear fell from Drakkens eye, sliding ever so gentle down his cheek; he wiped it away and walked to his computer to prepare for his departure.
Shego walked down the stairs proud of her comments toward Drakken. That should throw him off, He'll never expect a present after that he probably still thinks I forgot his birthday. Excellent…
You know it was a very harsh exchange, but considering you have thought this out and have a plan, I will again put forth that you do like him. Her conscious declared.
I do not! She furiously thought back to her conscious, it's just a gift because he's my boss and friend.
Friend now? I never remember you calling him your friend before, face it you have feelings for Dr.D.
Oh! I never have and I never will!
We'll see… Her conscious replied fading back to the depths of her mind.
"Ghaaa! Get out of my head!" She shouted, but only silence greeted her as well as the stare of Mrs. Lipsky who stood startled in the kitchen.
Shego blushed in embarrassment and quickly came up with a cover… "Hair clip...tee-hee" Shego smiled.
"Oh of course, what else would be in your head?" Mrs. Lipsky replied returning the smile.
"Yes, of course…" Shego replied and looked around the lair and her jaw dropped. For the lair looked nothing like it used to, streamers now hung from the ceiling as did little paper lights, confetti littered the floor in a rainbow of colors and a huge banner swayed from the ceiling Dr. Drakkens name plastered all over it. Shego smiled. Dr.D is gonna love this. She thought.
"How long did it take you to do this Mrs. L?" Shego inquired.
"Oh only 5 minutes, a little streamer here a little glitter there…" She replied.
"5 minutes? But how? And ladders? And…" Shego sputtered.
Mrs. Lipsky smiled, "We mothers are magical beings, and we can do anything for our children."
Mrs. Lipsky put the final touches on the cake she was icing and placed it on the table and turned to Shego.
"Now dear, would you like a taste?" She asked.
"Foregoing any self restraint Shego nodded quickly, her mouth watering and received a spoon full of icing.
"Now don't stand there and eat it! Come and sit down, give an old woman some company." Mrs. Lipsky urged and headed out to the den with an only to eager Shego in her wake.
Dr.Drakken, no, Drew Theodore Lipsky packed his brief case, placing all his necessary files and documents in pockets and his passport as well. He no longer wore his blue lab coat, instead after hours of searching within his closet he located an old pin stripe business suit and adorned it.
Now standing, he placed a note and disk on his pillow on his bed and proceeded to his book case. From it he withdrew an old leather clad book its title long faded away and its pages almost dust, triggering the spring that opened his secret passage that would lead him away from this place.
His footsteps echoed through the cobblestone passage as the bookcase silently slid back into place. Down into the bowels of the mountain he descended his demeanor dark and dreary. Tears fell freely each silently falling into the darkness.
He heard the pitter patter of rain near, and his pace quickened; he knew his freedom was at hand. From the passage he stepped into the Forrest, the road only meters away and thought: To new beginnings, from my last beginnings end. May the journey prove more fruitful. He turned and looked up at the great castle from where he just left and imagined Shego, looking down on him and he smiled, blowing a kiss to satisfy his imagination, he walked into the mists towards what he hoped would be a better life not only for himself but for those he had left.
Oh! I led you on at last end notes didn't I? You thought it was gonna be all party and hunky dory magical? Well actually so did I when I wrote that but I had a change of heart so this came out instead. Anywho, next chapter, Shego's dream is realized, they discover Drakkens left and the quest to find Drakken begins! Will familiar faces arise? Will Shego call Kim Possible for help? Or am I just leading you on again? I hope not, because I don't enjoy it actually. Oh and just a side note only 5 reviews last chapter…-sniff- no body loves me… -sob-. Keep R&R please!
