I'm hoping to get this finished by this weekend, as there's other things I need to work on and do. Hope y'all like…
Once again, Disclaimer: I don't own the characters of the Kim Possible show…
Chapter 8Ron's eyes began to flutter as the pain medication he just took was starting to take effect. Suddenly something triggered in the back of his mind, jarring him back to consciousness. A thought. A single thought popped into his head. No, it screamed! Kim's in trouble!
This was the first time anything like this had happened, and he wasn't sure how to react. Was it just his mind, his thought? Or was there something bigger going on here? It hadn't really been that long ago that he was at Yamanouchi, and found out he was The Chosen One for the Lotus Blade. He was still trying to come to grips with everything that had happened on that trip.
Then there was Yori. After Kim told him that Yori like, really liked him, he had noticed small changes in Kim. Every time he mentioned Yori's name, Kim would get this look on her face. Was she jealous? He wasn't sure.
But what he was sure of now, was that Kim was in trouble. How he knew, he wasn't sure. But how could he help her?
Ron wasn't sure how far away from the Bebe site the hospital was, but he couldn't think about that. How could he help Kim? There was no way he could get out the hospital with being seen.
Remembering a meditation technique that Sensei had taught him, Ron closed his eyes, and slowed his breathing. He concentrated on Kim, and where she was.

Kim struggled against the arm that held her against the wall, but was unable to budge the arm, as it had the advantage of leverage. She quickly raised both her legs, placed her feet on the middle section of Dual, and pushed with all her might. The robot flew away from her!
Kim landed in a crouch as the force of her kick threw her away from the wall. The room was pitch black again, save for the dim light coming from the open door in the other room. She heard the clang and the sound of metal scraping on the floor as the android landed and slid a few feet. She then bolted for the area with more light.
Just as she entered the hallway, Kim felt something grab her foot! She quickly turned, looking down. There was the Bebe robot, lying on the floor, with a hand clutched around her ankle. The arm without a hand came up, and knocked her to the floor!
Something must have been wrong with the robot's legs, as it pulled itself onto the top of Kim. "Kim Possible," The robot said in that weird double voice. "You will die." The next thing Kim felt was a metal hand wrap itself around her throat. How ironic is this? Kim thought. Being killed by a Bebe robot the same way I almost killed Ron?
Kim kicked, and lashed out with her hands. The grip on her throat just seemed to get tighter, and tighter.

If anyone had been in Ron's room, they would have been both shocked and amazed. He was sitting in a lotus position, and floating above his bed about 2 feet! He also had a light blue glow around his entire body.
Kim… Kim… I can feel you… I can feel your mind… I can feel your… soul.
Then without warning, he felt like he couldn't breath! It felt the same as when Kim was trying to choke him, but nothing was gripping his throat. Kim…

Just as she felt herself start to black out from the lack of oxygen, Kim heard a voice in her head. Kim…
Ron…?
Kim…?
Their minds made a connection.
Kim… are you OK? Ron thought to her.
No, I'm not! I'm being choked to death by a Bebe robot! Kim was feeling real fear, as she felt herself start to go numb.
Fight it Kim! Let me give you strength! Feed off of me! Ron concentrated more, willing his strength to Kim. Immediately, her eyes popped open, and she felt a surge of strength she never knew she had!
Performing a move that would make any wrestler envious, Kim threw the Bebe robot off of her, and sent it skidding along the floor. Kneeling on the floor, Kim coughed and gagged, as she fought to breathe.
Drawing in ragged breaths, a thought came to her. Was that Ron in my head? The connection was now gone, and she suddenly felt a great emptiness inside her.
The clanging noise off to her right brought Kim out of her thoughts. Looking over, she saw the Bebe-bot trying to shakily stand up, using the wall as support. "Kim… Kim… Kim… P… P… Possibllllllle… You… you… have not yet d… d…. defeated me yet… yet…yet…" The voice was not the weird double voice this time.
When Kim had thrown the Bebe-bot of off her, she hadn't noticed that the robot had struck its head on the wall. Inside the robot's brain, something disconnected, and there was a battle of supremacy going on.
The two brains inside the head of this Bebe-bot were jarred just enough that the tenuous connection between the two had been broken. Now two separate brains, or computers, were battling it out trying to take control of the robot body. Neither was winning.
Kim walked up to the unsteady android, and launched at it, kicking squarely in the midsection, throwing it back against the wall. "THAT is for trying to make me into one of you! THIS…" She struck the chin with the heel of her hand, snapping the head back. "Is for making me hurt Ron!"
"And THIS…" Kim then grabbed the head, and swung her legs over the shoulders. Standing there with the Bebe-bots head between her legs, Kim grabbed the head, and with all her might, twisted, and pulled. It separated from the body with the scream of metal, and flying sparks! "Is for trying to kill us!" Kim finished, holding the head, and looking into the one eye as it slowly faded, and finally winked out.
Taking no chances this time, Kim took the head of the Bebe-bot with her out of the underground chamber. She wanted to destroy it, so it could never come back. Looking around after climbing out of the shaft, Kim saw the perfect thing. It was a large industrial-sized compactor. The GJ clean-up crew had been using it to destroy bodies of the other Bebe-bots.
She placed the head in the compactor's chamber, and fired up the machine. After closing the chamber's door, she didn't notice that the eye had lit up one last time. Pressing the On button, the large hydraulic plunger slowly moved down, and began to crush the head. N… N… Noooooo… ooo We… we…. Willll con… con… continuuuuue
The hydraulic press continued it's decent, and just before it reached bottom, a flash of sparks flew out of the chamber, as the back-up power cell in the Bebe head was finally destroyed.
To make sure it was destroyed, Kim opened the chamber after the press had returned to its Home position. The head had been flattened to no more than a half-inch thickness. But she still wasn't satisfied.
The next piece of equipment Kim found was a metal shredder. Kicking the lever to turn it on, as she held the mangled head, the machine whirred loudly. She tossed the head into the hopper and after a quick grinding, small bits of metal, plastic and wires fell out of the chute into a bucket. Kim still wasn't satisfied with its destruction.
She had never been so mad at anything in her life. What it had done to her, what it had made her do to Ron, was unforgivable. Kim was glad this wasn't a sentient being, as she wouldn't have done this willingly to another living thing.
Looking around the site one last time, Kim's eyes landed on the last piece of equipment she wanted to use. A portable propane-fired furnace. She took the bucket of shredded Bebe, strode over to the furnace, and fired it up. It only took a few minutes for it to come to temperature (which was about 1500 deg. Fahrenheit), as the chamber wasn't very big, but it was large enough for what she had to destroy. Using the long metal rod hung on the machine, she opened the furnace door, and threw both the bucket and its contents into the raging inferno. Everything was immediately incinerated. Just to make sure though, she let it run for another fifteen minutes, and then shut it down.
Brushing her hands off, Kim strode away from the Bebe site, and Keyed Wade to get her a ride back to the hospital, and back to Ron.
To be continued…
Well, you think the Bebe head was destroyed? I think so… As always, Please R & R. I'll try to finish this over the weekend. Maybe…
