Hi Thank you to all my reviewers and your helpful comments

SM, surforst, jak4, Ramafan, gargoylesama, Cylon one and Aelis aisling.

As to Ron and Kim: Yes this is a Ron and Kim fic…

Also I don't have cable so I've only seen a few episodes and the movies so sorry if anything is off. (as to pirate research I'm no expert just a writer )

Hoping this chapter will be longer than the last two (I though they were long and then I posted them and they were freakin' short!)

Notes:

I don't own Kim Possible.

The Dread Pirate Kim Possible: Chapter 3

Of Training and Naked mole rats.


The sky is a beautiful shade of blue, clouds merrily dancing along its surface when a loud scream breaks the air.

"GOD! Could you be any more hopeless?" Monique a chocolate skinned girl brandishes her arms about in frustration at Ron; who is wrapped up completely in the rope that he was trying to tie into a sailor's knot. The rope covers all of his body making him look like a mummy.

Ron (Hi my name is Ron)

Monique continues to wave her arms around and rant. "I mean it would be one thing if you just couldn't tie rope or tell the deck from the mast."

Ron: (And for several weeks now I've been in training to be a pirate.)

Monique gets in Ron's face. "But you can't do," Monique pushes her finger into Ron's chest, "An-N-Thang!"

Ron gulps: (As you can tell, it's not going so hot.)

She spins around, "Not only can not do anything, but when I try to get you to do something. You mess up. I've tried to get you to raise the sails; and you knock yourself out taking half the crew with you. I tried to get you to scrub the deck and you somehow melt a hole in the floor. Cooking wasn't much better." Monique puts her arms on her hips and gives Ron 'the Look', "and I am not risking my neck by giving you a sword. I mean…Honey child, if you would just…."

"What's the sitch?" Kim suddenly drops out of the sky making Monique freak.

. (How in the world does she do that?) thinks Monique as she faces her friend.

"OH! Kim hi!." Monique smiles nervously "What up girl?"

"Nutthin' Mu…" Kim tails off as she finally sees Ron who is still wrapped up in yards of rope. "What happened to him?"

Monique looks at Ron pretending innocence "Hmm? Oh Ron… well you told me to train him." Monique nods smiling at Kim.

"Yes but what exactly are you training him to do."

"Well, heh! heh, funny you should mention that…" Monique scrabbles around frantically for a feasible idea when…

"Land Ahoi!"

Kim turns around looking at the crow's nest. "This'll have to wait. We've got bigger fish to fry."

Monique sighs in relief.

Kim smiles at Monique, "Monique, prep Ron for the mission."

Monique's mouth hangs open slightly as she stares blankly at Kim. "Huh?" she squeaks out.

Kim Shrugs, "Well how else am I gonna see the awesome skillz your training has given Ron?" Kim starts to head off to get the rest of her crew ready, "Well, I'll see you guys later!"

Monique slaps herself in the forehead, "You've got to be kidding me." She looks at Ron still wrapped in rope; his big brown eyes pleading for help. "This is so not going to be pretty."


Several minutes and many yards of rope later, Ron is placed in a small rowboat with: Kim, Monique and several other crew members. They move quickly through the water with practiced ease.

Kim Sits at the front of the boat facing towards land letting her hair fly free in the wind around her. "Ahh!" She wraps her arms around herself "There's nothing like a mission to make me feel like a new woman!"

Ron fidgets nervously in his uncomfortable wooden seat next to Kim and she notices.

"What's up?" she inquires as she turns around to face Ron.

Ron puts his left arm behind his head and looks off to the side. "Well.. I'm just not sure about this whole thing.."

"What thing"

"This whole mission thing.. I.. I." Ron looks down at his lap. "I don't think I'll be any good." He mutters.

"Oh, come on," Kim reaches out with her hand to grab Ron's chin and make him look at her. "You've gone through Monique's training…strange as it was, right?

Ron shrugs "yeah I guess."

"Then there's nothing to worry about." Kim smiles, and Ron takes a deep breath in when he notices how beautiful she is.

But the small Ship hits shore just then, and immediately Kim leaps out of the boat, her entire demeanor changing to 'captain mode' so she could direct her crew better.

"All right crew … we gotta be tight with this." She points into the forest. "There's bound to be at least some treasure, somewhere. Let's go find it, or else the admiral will so NOT be pleased."

The entire crew yells in agreement, "YEAH!" throwing up their arms except for Ron, who just stands there looking confused while the crew piles out of the boat rushing for the forest; leaving Ron alone in the boat.

"This is so not gonna be good." Ron sighs and drags his feet along the beach, towards the dark African forest.


"Um Kim?" Monique whispered in her ear; as the entire crew takes to whacking the African forest into submission.

"Yeah Monique?"

"What is it exactly that we're looking for?"

Kim shrugs, "Heck if I know."

"Well If you don't know and we don't know then how are we suppose to know when we've found it?"

Kim smiles cockily, "Luck I guess."

"Great," Monique sighs looking defeated. "I was afraid you were going to say that."

"Hey, don't be like that." She says striking a pose, "I'm a Possible and I can do anything…"

"Uh-huh." Monique does not look impressed, "And what if you don't know what it is you're trying to do."

"…"


Meanwhile Ron is lost in the African jungle, unable to keep up with the rest of the crew.

Ron Pants as he walks. "This is so wrong." Ron wipes off a bit of mud on his face. "All I wanted was some Mexican food and now I'm in the middle of the jungle with pirates…"

Rons stomach growls "AND I'M HUNGREY" he shouts in frustration at the sky falling to the ground with a pout.

Unfortunately for Ron his scream has woken an animal in the jungle… Some thing scary, something wrong sick something like…

"A naked mole Rat?" Ron blinks at the small critter shaking his fist at him angrily for waking him up.

"RUFUS!" chatters the creature crossing his arms and staring up at Ron with black button eyes.

"Hey sorry man.." Ron laughs "I didn't mean to wake you." He holds out his hand to Rufus. "Friends?"

Rufus considers the hand for a second before nodding "Ok!" Rufus quickly jumps onto Ron's proffered hand and climbs up his arm and snakes around his body making Ron giggle.

"WHAhaha!" Ron falls to the ground incapacitated with laughter "Cut it out Rufus!"

Rufus ends up on Ron's shoulder looking at him smugly; or as smugly as an abnormally smart rodent can look.

"heh-heh." Ronb scratches Rufus's head. Slowly calming down from his giggling high, "It's nice to finally have a friend out here."

"uh-huh!" agrees Rufus snuggling into Ron's chest with a contented sigh.

"Say…" Ron looks down at Rufus considering, Rufus looks back up at him, "you wouldn't happen to know where any treasure around here would be would you?"

Rufus puts his small claw to his face stroking his whiskers… "Uh-huh" he finally says. Jumping off Ron's shoulder and scampering off towards the east. "Thu-is Way!" He says stopping to make sure Ron is following him before continuing deeper into the forest

Well That's the end of chapter three. It's 1,000 words . WHoo! Throws party.

Next chapter we see more of Rufus and… I don't wanna spoil the rest.

This is also the first time I've ever written semi successful fluff O.o yeah I know it was light fluff but it was still fluff. And it's my biggest weak point.
