I'm sorry this chapter has taken so long. If its any condolence chapter 7 is already over half done as it was originally written as part of this chapter but I decided to stick to my 2500 word chapter precedent. I want to take a moment to thank everyone who's been reading and reviewing. Your comments and critiques keep me motivated to continue this story. Once again thanks for coming along on this adventure with me!


The Other Side

"Say hi to your mother for me Kimberly." A bright voice from behind the receptionist's desk conversed with a red headed young figure.

Kim stood in front of the desk and smiled at the blonde woman seated at the workstation. "Sure thing Mrs. Crumply, I'm sure my mom will be delighted to hear from you. I'm sure she'll be surprised that we bumped into you."

"Small world isn't it? I never imagined that I'd find that my old college roommate's daughter is the famous hero Kim Possible! The middle aged blonde woman smiled from behind the counter and reached up to adjust her earpiece. "I'm so glad I got to meet you and, oh what was your friends name again?"

Kim half scowled but quickly composed herself. It had become suddenly apparent how easily everyone overlooked Ron, and his efforts for the team. Funny, I overlooked him myself for a long time too. Kim's smile beamed a little brighter as she began to correct her newfound acquaintance. "Oh Mrs. Crumply, his name is Ron, and, well" she had to stifle her giggles again, " he's not a friend, he's my best friend and boyfriend." Kim couldn't help but blush a slight shade of pink as she smiled sheepishly.

Mrs. Crumply's nose wrinkled for a moment as she paused in slight confusion but quickly recovered and smiled again. She had been filing paper work when the teenage couple had come into the office, hand in hand as cute as can be. The young red head had jotted both or their names on the sign-in clipboard lying on the counter before leading the freckled young man into the waiting area were they sat quietly. Reaching up for the clipboard, her eyes never left the text of the computer screen until finally glancing down at the sign-in sheet. Normally entering the list into the computer was a mindless task but just this once she found herself doing a double take at the scribbled list of signatures. Kim Possible. The name jumped off the page like a neon sign forcing her to look up from her work over into the waiting area. There she sat, undeniably in the flesh, Kim Possible, but who was this young man with her? Mrs. Crumply grabbed the rim of her glasses as she glanced back down focusing on the list of names. There just below Kim's almost perfectly formed signature was another name in the same graceful cursive. Ron Stoppable. The receptionist looked back up at the pair, honing in on the lanky boy at Kim's side. "I'm not quite sure who you are young man." She whispered to herself as she adjusted her glasses on her nose, "but you seem awfully familiar."

"Ron Stoppable." A nurse dressed in a green scrub like smock had popped out of a hallway holding a clipboard.

Kim winced as she felt Ron squirm in his seat at her side, his fingers still laced in her own seemed instantly sweat laden and clammy at the sound of his name.

"Maybe she won't see me. Maybe she won't see me." Ron began chanting under his breath as the nurse impatiently shifted in place surveying the room. Kim rolled her eyes as he sank lowering into his seat trying to shrink from existence.

"Ron!" her brows drooped lower over her eyes as she scowled and stood to her feet jerking him from the chair. "Let's go!" She sternly ground and dragged her reluctant boyfriend into the hallway after the nurse.

"Rufus! Buddy! Save me!" Ron whimpered to his sleeping friend as he was lead down the corridor towards his vaccination shots. Rufus was amazingly able to sleep through the unsightly display that occurred within the next thirty minutes.

Mrs. Crumbly looked blinking at Ron as he walked up from behind Kim and reached into the glass jar on the counter to extract a grape flavored hard candy. She couldn't help but wonder at the boy after the display he had put on only thirty minutes earlier. He sure made an awful big fuss for just a couple of shots. I wonder if she always drags him around like that?

"Well, once again Kim, it was nice meeting you and Ron. You two have fun before school starts up again, and be careful when you're out saving the world!" the blonde spoke cheerily her pleasant interruption coming to it's end.

Kim felt Ron's fingers slip between her own and smirked over at him slyly. "Oh we're defiantly going to have a fun summer." Ron smiled goofily at the sent of strawberries flipping past his nose as Kim turned back to Mrs. Crumply. "Thanks again Mrs. Crumply. You'll probably be hearing from mom soon."

With that the redhead lead her boy back towards the entrance, waving over her should at the receptionist. Ron smiled and waved with his freehand before shuffling a little faster to match Kim's stride. "See yah!" The two exited, the door lazily closing behind them.

The Flip Side

Ron stared menacingly down at Shego and Drew as the controller trembled in his hand from the force of his crushing thumb. At first there was nothing. Eerily silent air saturated the room; it's four occupants dead still. Drew held Shego's hand firmly as the raven haired young woman stood fast in her place her body tense, prepared to dodge an unexpected onslaught. It never came. She stood there just watching, seconds seemed to pass as slowly as hours, her eyes scowered the almost dead expression on the blonde's face searching for a sign. She glanced over his shoulder at Kim. The red head stood arms crossed on her chest, the black leather of her suit pulled taught against her chest as a wicked grin set below her expecting eyes.

What in the world is going on! Shego's eyes questioned.

Suddenly the air around the two villains visibly rippled forcing before the heroes very eyes. Shego's mind paused puzzled at the sight her eyes were registering. They attacked themselves? No! Realization hit her hard like a ton of bricks. The air around Ron and Kim hadn't changed! It was the air around her and Drew. Se tried to moved but found that she couldn't' budge. They were surround by a rippling haze in the air.

"What in the world! Shego!" Drew shifted away from the shimmering air but suddenly found himself unable to move further.

Shego had already begun fighting against her invisible bonds as she too found herself mysteriously locked into place. "Drew! What's happening! I can't move!" She struggled in panic along with the older male at her side.

Drew shouted back to her as desperation began to take hold from the fruitlessness of their continued struggle. "Shego, look out! The floor!"

Two green eyes dropped instantly to the floor, a small black hole seemed to appear and grow at her feet between herself and her partner. Shego found herself fighting even harder against the invisible force paralyzing the two of them but it refused to relent causing her struggle to slowly sap fight from her. A silent scream slipped from her mouth as the hole began to grow, expanding further beneath her until it was finally wide enough to completely surround the two heroes.

Drew uncharacteristically found a strong voice as they both struggled against the force fields. "You'll never get away with this Ron!" The blue tint of his skin flushed darker as adrenaline flooded his veins.

A twinge of an almost unnoticeable smirk pulled at the corner of his mouth. Ron starred coldly at the two figures engulfed in the pulsating fields. "Oh, I think I already have Drew."

Kim stepped up closer behind the blonde; a look of amazement adorned her face as reflections of the growing vortex danced on the gloss of her eyes. I always knew he was a little off but this is nuts. I've never seen anything like this. He's amazing…and a little mad. Why is he so calm…why isn't he taunting! He always uses they're names. How can he hold himself like this! Her lips opened and closed allowing the moisture to return to her drying mouth but her eyes remain locked on the two figures trapped in the hazy blur at the center of the room.

The large black gulf below their feet renewed the determination in the trapped couples struggle. They fought harder, their bodies screaming inside as their limbs refused to move despite the force exerted from their muscles. The black hole seemed to respond directly to their plight by opening further beneath them continuing until it was as wide as the haze surrounding them both. Shego and Drew found themselves forced into a frozen state, their bodies no longer to exert strength any longer. There they stood frozen in fear as the haze around them began to increase in intensity, the air around them seemed to swirl more violently increasing in speed, the air shuddered and vibrated, bright colors shimmered around them as the particles in the accelerated air began scatter the rooms light in different angles. Stray blue beams of static electricity leapt from the edges of the black hole coursing about striking the metallic structures of the room. The beams arked and danced scorching the walls and destroying various pieces of equipment.

Kim shivered as sparks rained down around herself and Ron. She leapt forward forcibly grabbing his arm. "Common! This is crazy! Lets get out of here!" She tugged him hard towards the door but the young male was seemingly immovable, caught in a trance as the destruction rocked the room around them. The building shuttered causing pieces of plaster to fall from the ceiling, one large chunk just barely missing the villains. Ron remained still watching intently, the evil in his eyes dancing as the sparks and debris flew around him. His once emotionless face now contorted with glee as he watched through the haze at the two silhouettes struggling with the advancing electrical storm. Kim pulled harder trying to get Ron's attention. She shouted several choice phrases as she ripped at his arm, which normally would reward her with a dark scowl from her partner. The noise from the explosions and electrical arking drowned out every word, Ron stood unmoved.

"RON MOVE IT!" Pissed she screamed at him and angrily planted the face of her boot in the left cheek of his butt forcing him from his trance. Ron stumbled forward and just barely readied himself to kiss the ground when Kim lashed out and clenched a fistful of his harness in her fist. She wound back her other arm determined to knock his freckled face back into consciousness but stopped mid strike as a brilliant bright light distracted her.

Slowly the haze around Shego and Drew began rotating in place. The electrical storm danced around the room burning black lines into the walls as the hole beneath the two heroes swirled, slowly accelerating. They screamed trying desperately to fight against their paralyzed bodies but their voices were absorbed by the mass of energy spinning around them. Slowly the mass increased in speed until the space around the two moved so rapidly that the air around them obscured them from sight completely. Ron lashed out pulling Kim to his side while throwing his arm up to shield their eyes. She melted into him partially in desire, partially in fear. A deafeningly high pitched crackle rocked the room followed by an intense light flashing in a violent flare, it engulfing the room in inescapable white with a static fizzle.

In a breath it was over. As if someone flipped a light switch, Shego and Drew were suddenly gone, and the raging storm was abated. Disappeared. Blinked out of existence before the very eyes of the two villains. Kim blinked and let go of Ron to rub her eyes. She dashed over to the spot were her two annoyances stood only moments before and turned in place cautiously looking around with unblinking eyes. Her face quivered with disbelief. "Ron…what did you do to them?" She stopped turning and looked at Ron, her face bewildered and slightly fearful.

Ron's face was blank. His eyes stared blankly, emotionlessly out into the now empty space. The room around him smoldered, charred and burnt black, debris still hung floating in the air. His pupils finally shifted soon followed by his eyebrows as his face twisted into an evilly triumphant contortion. The corner of his pulled sharply into a smiling sneer. Kim was found herself unable to doing a thin but remain starring dumbstruck at the twisted freckled face. Ron began to chuckle quietly, his body quaking along with each shudder of his chest. His arms hung limply at his side, the equipment strapped to his harness clung dusty with plaster, his hair mussed beyond its normal unruliness. Those freckles on his face, the ones Kim found so childish yet irresistible synched tightly as his cheeks pulled into deep furrows with each laugh. Each laugh grew audibly more crazed. Suddenly Kim started as he threw his fists into the air above his head, his voice quickly snapping with volume. The air shuddered as he cried. "BOOYAHAHAHAHA!"

His voice finally died down, the echo following quickly behind it leaving the two of them standing amongst the battered room in silence. Kim stood waiting silently. She stood their staring down at the ground, silently contemplating the rubble and dust, which clung to the glossy surface of her leather boots. The silence was unsettling, but what left a sickness in her stomach was his voice. His low, eerie voice snapped her back into reality. "Come. Lets go. With our last obstacle out of the way we're left with a world to rule." Ron smiled coolly and held his hand out to her invitingly. She raised her hand towards his cautiously, looking up into his eyes from beneath her uneasy brows. Red hair hung in her face shielding the worry from his sight. Finally he grasped her hand gently and lead her out of the room towards the elevator shaft they had occupied just hours before. As they stepped into the shaft and grappled towards the roof the small control room lay in shambles. Equipment lay devoid of operation as the silence accompanied the darkness. The darkness was almost absolute, except for one small monitor that remained burning against all odds. This very screen once displayed a single green dot blinking resiliently designating a presence in this very room. Now that green dot was gone, replaced by a bright pink one blinking steadily.


I would think this is probably a halfway point in the story but I wouldn't hold me to it. They're lots more twists to come. I'm also drumming up a bit of a cross over between another Kim Possible AU and another favorite Disney cartoon of mine. It's going to set our favorite Kim and Ron in a bit more of a grittier, more realistic world filled with stone creatures and sorcery. It should be really cool but you won't see it until this story is complete. As usual please read and review! I try to reply to all my reviews and check out every reviewers work on Thanks again!
