Kim Possible and Street Hawk vs the Village Bullies p 2

Disclaimer: I do not own Kim Possible or Street Hawk. Wish I did though.

Beeping the Team and Flight

Inside Command Center in Middleton, Colorado, Norman is in the process of contacting the team through their beepers. As he beeps them, he grins and nods, saying, "Just gotta love that call forwarding." He then considers the logistics of the pending operation, with Jane right beside him, her nine-month belly fully blown. They had been waiting for their child to be born for the past week, but it had been delayed.

"Let's see. Ron and Bonnie are the most active. They'll be the pointmen for the investigation and case. Jessica and Hirotaka are the cover while Kim, Jane and I keep Mona company. Hopefully, it won't spread us out too thin."

Jane nods in agreement, saying, "I just hope this won't become dangerous, Norman. I've always been curious about your friends from the old days." She then leans forward and asks, "What was Mona to you, anyway?"

"Just a friend. And a slight crush. Long before we both met, honey. The gentle way she'd care for the animals and her intelligence were what drew me to her. The last time I saw her was at Jesse's funeral. She tried to speak to me, to coax me out of it. But I was so deep into my funk, I didn't even acknowledge it. So, one day, she quit her job and moved away. I haven't seen her since and regretted it for every day."

"Norman, you were badly hurt emotionally. But you didn't have to muddle through it alone. If Jesse had survived, would you have distanced yourself like that?" At Norman's headshake of no, she goes on. "Did Jesse go into a funk anytime he lost a friend, like you did?"

"Just Kevin Starkey, that's about it. But he came out of it okay." His face slowly lightens as he realizes it. "He had me as a friend and a colleague. I saw him the same way, only he was more like a brother to me. If it was me that died, he would have done it the same way and I wouldn't have wanted that of him."

"What would he have wanted you to do?"

"Talk it out, enjoy life and loosen up. Because that's the way Jesse was, all the time. It was his release valve while I had none."

At the Stoppable house, Ron and Kim Stoppable are painting the nursery for their newest incoming children. A seated Kim softly strokes her eight-month belly while she watches Ron paint the nursery.

She had gone through her seventh month and decided to wait until the children are born before buying more baby supplies. Sure enough, Ron agreed to the idea. She then feels them kicking within her womb and grins proudly.

"Ron, these kids are going to be a handful and fighters to boot."

"Well, let's see here. Your genetics and fighting skill, combined with my Ron-ness. Yep, they'll be fighters and a handful, KP."

Kim laughs softly as she replies, "Don't forget, Ron. You're in there, too. These kids will have more than your Ron-ness in them. They'll have your loyalty, courage under fire and hopefully your eyes. I so love your eyes, Ron."

"I love yours too, Kim." At that, Ron goes over to his wife, kisses her passionately and strokes her belly, a proud smile on his face. "Who would've thought we would create such beautiful children? Our hair, eyes and souls are within our kids, KP."

Kim nods and says, "That they are, honey. Have you decided which courses you'll be taking yet?"

"Oh yeah. Culinary Arts and Business Management, for my own restaurant. How about you, Kim?"

"Criminal Justice. I want to be a Lawyer, for the Prosecution." At Ron's raised eyebrow, she goes on. "It's something I pondered while you and the others were on your way to Shanghai to stomp the Sho-Da-Kah senseless. So, what happened while you were on your way there? Tell all."

Her jaw drops as Ron tells her all about their arrival at the Tuatha De Danaan, Mithril's main submarine. Along with how well Bonnie Rockwaller had landed the War Bird helicopter onto it. She then laughs as she pictures Sgt. Kurz Weber flying through the air after sitting on Street Hawk's seat.

"I guess he didn't give you a chance to warn him about sitting on the seat."

"Actually, I felt like letting him feel foolish and not tell him. But, he's not the only one that sat on it."

"Oh? Who else?"

"Let's see, the Hangar Crew on our way to the mission and Commander Mardukas, upon my return to the TDD-1."

"Ouch. I bet that wasn't pleasant for any of them." At Ron's grin, she giggles and kisses him, asking, "What am I going to do with you?" Before Ron can reply, his beeper goes off.

"I'll have to finish this later, KP. Shall we go together while my folks are watching the kids?"

"Let's do, Ron. Be sure to call them before we leave town if that's what this is about."

"You got it, Kim." At that, the young couple leaves the house and get into Ron's pickup.

At the Rockwaller house, Bonnie and Hirotaka Rockwaller are laughing together at a comedy that Bonnie had just rented. It has been three weeks since Bonnie's adventure in Hazzard. She had gotten a letter from Daisy Duke and Enos Strate the previous day. She then sighs as she returns her attention to the movie while thinking about the letter.

"Dear Bonnie, how're you doing up in Colorado? Everything's fine here in Hazzard. Bo and Luke are off of Probation and helping Enos, Cletus and Roscoe hone their driving skills. Boss Hogg seems to have turned over a new leaf, like he's anticipating a massive payoff on the part of good Law Enforcement.

Oh, you won't believe this, but Enos and I were appointed as caretakers for a cute little baby boy. He came to us courtesy of War Bird with Team Hawk. She told us we were the first ones on the roster for a new program to help newly engaged couples get some first-hand training for their future lives together.

He has a nickname. 'Smokey'. He's just the cutest little thing you'd ever see, Bonnie. I hope you got back to Middleton okay. As to Frugal Lucre, he hung himself in his cell. I guess Roscoe's unique chuckle caused him to snap and kill himself. President Wallace from Rodeghan went back home shortly after 'Smokey' arrived. Before he left, he told Enos that the baby is fortunate to have survived what it had.

You see, 'Smokey' was left by his parents on a burning cabin cruiser. Luckily for him, someone was smiling down on this little lamb chop. Because War Bird and Hard Hawk rescued him and saved his life. He's been with us for three weeks now and enjoying himself, even though Uncle Jesse seems to enjoy seeing 'Smokey' laugh and giggle more than 'Smokey' does. Well, 'Smokey's crying again. He must be wanting to be held, the little cutie-pie. Well, talk to you later, Bonnie. Love, Daisy Duke. P.S. The wedding is in three months after next. Maybe we'll see you and your family there. Bye."

Bonnie returns to the movie and laughs as a character gets set on fire while another character laughs insanely. "I love this movie! He's so funny, Hirotaka!"

Hirotaka lifts his eyebrow as he takes in the scene before him before he starts to laughing as well. Before he can say anything, their beepers go off.

Bonnie sighs at the interruption as she stops the tape. "At least Mom got back home last week. Now we won't have to worry about interrupting Felix and Tara to ask them about watching the kids."

Judith Rockwaller had returned home to Middleton after speaking with a retired FBI Agent that had been saved by the original Street Hawk and is in the process of starting the book with the first chapter dedicated to Jesse Mach's memory. The second chapter would be the Agent's while she still has yet to find the other people that Street Hawk had helped back in the '80s.

Hirotaka nods as he gets up and says, "I'll meet you at Command Center, Bonnie. I'll drop off the twins while you head there."

Bonnie drops her jaw and then grins. "Hirotaka, I don't believe this. You actually came up with a tactical family plan."

"Not really. Just from watching Kim and Ron with their triplets. After all, family's usually best."

"Yeah, especially with my background." Bonnie's face soon gets wet with tears as Hirotaka kisses her. "If I ever find him, he'll wish that I had never been born."

"Who, Bonnie?"

"My Father. He was the one who told me to be nasty to Kim and Ron in the first place. All because they weren't in the same social bracket as we were." She then strokes Hirotaka's cheek as she goes on.

"Ron told me to let the guilt and pain go during the flight for the mission in Shanghai. But I can't. Not just yet. When and if I find my Father, I'm going to confront him and tell him he made my life a living hell. Then, and only then, I can let the guilt and pain go."

"Bonnie, you didn't have to shoulder yourself with this burden. There was no need for you to bear it."

"I know. I wanted so desperately to be accepted by my Father, I did the most horrible thing by listening to him. I paid the price all those years, only to be set free by the ones I tormented the most. It's very truly ironic. How those you have contempt toward for no good reason at all can actually sometimes be like family to you."

She then snorts and says, "I'm starting to think somewhat like Ron now. Honey, can you do me a favor?"

"Sure, Bonnie. What is it?"

"If I ever decide one day to get a naked mole rat for a pet, tickle me senseless."

"I see. Like this?" At that, he launches a tickle attack on her abdomen, smiling at her screeches of raucous laughter.

After her fit of laughter, Bonnie calms herself down enough to nod and reply, "Exactly like that, honey. Exactly like that." She then sighs and says, "Let's go take them together, honey. I'm sure Mother would like to see me with this massive smile before it fades away."

Hirotaka nods in agreement as they go to the room that their twins are in. When Bonnie opens the door, she softly smiles at the sight before her. Both Kim and Ron are sound asleep in their shared crib, making little noises in their sleep.

Leaning back into him, she whispers, "Then again, Mother should come on down here. She can work on her story in the living room."

"Agreed. It's a good thing she only lives a block away from here."

"Yeah, what can I say? I'm Mother's littlest girl."

Hirotaka then looks at her hair before smirking. "Hmm."

"What?"

"Just curious about something."

"About what, honey?" Abruptly, she feels Hirotaka's arms slip from around her as he gives his reply.

"If you had them, how you looked in pigtails back then." At that, he bolts away, cackling like a lunatic. "I think I'll call your Mom and ask her about it!" He then picks up the house's cordless phone, while running, and punches in the number.

"Why you! Get back here!" At that, a laughing Bonnie chases a laughing Hirotaka through the house as he calls Judith.

"Yes, Judith? Two things. Bonnie and I just got beeped. Could you watch the twins for us, please? Great. Yes, possibly. Oh, the other item? Did Bonnie ever wear pigtails? She did? How did she look in them? Oof!" A still-laughing Bonnie tackles Hirotaka to the floor and launches a tickle attack on him.

"I can't believe you actually asked her that! What do you have to say for yourself now, buster?" His laughter is so contagious, she can't help but laugh even harder as she straddles him while tickling him.

"It was worth it, Bonnie. It was so very worth it." He then wraps his arms around her as he kisses her passionately.

"Oh Hirotaka. You make me feel so lucky, being your wife and Mother to our children. I've got to be the luckiest woman on the planet."

"Not so much is luck. You had your sweet days and your nasty days back then. It shames me to say this, but I often wondered what had drawn me to you. Then I remember. Deep inside, is a sweet, young and innocent girl just wanting to spring free of her highly hostile prison. A prison she had built to keep herself safe on the inside, yet lonely as well at the same time."

"And all it took for me to bust out was Ron chewing me out that day. That's another thing I have to thank him for. I don't think I ever told you just how much you guys rock."

"It was my pleasure, Bonnie dearest. Well, shall we go?"

"We shall, my darling Hirotaka. I see Mother coming up the walk right now." Bonnie goes to the door and smiles, saying, "Thanks for coming over, Mom."

Judith smiles back and replies, "It's no big deal, Bon-Bon. I missed seeing my grand-babies while I was out of town. Have a careful and good time being on War Bird duty."

"I'll do what I can, Mom. We'll call you when we get done or later on. Whichever comes first."

"Either one works for me, Bon-Bon. Take good care of her, Hirotaka."

"I will, Judith. It will be my honor." Judith Rockwaller can only laugh as her youngest daughter and her husband leave their two-story house, arm-in-arm.

"Good luck, my little Bon-Bon." Judith then quietly sighs as she goes inside and heads for the living room, laptop in hand. "Let's see. What shall my title be? Ah. Perfect." She then types it in, a smile on her face.

"Since my former identity is considered to be dead, I'll just use it. It'll be the ultimate ghostwriting." She types it in as well before looking over her interview notes. "Okay, since we don't have a lot to work with, it'll have to be a very short chapter."

With that said, Judith starts on her memorial chapter, tears falling from her eyes. 'Hopefully, this will vindicate Jesse's work as Street Hawk. It's the least I can do to honor his memory.'

Five minutes later, Bonnie and Hirotaka arrive at Command Center, with Ron and Kim right behind them. Jessica and Lily Mach arrive right behind Kim and Ron, having come from the college for Jessica's education. As Lily's Ford Five Hundred pulls to a stop, the car's blue paint job shines brightly in the light of the complex.

Ron greets Norman as he helps Kim out of the pickup. "Hey, Norman. What's going on?"

"I just got a call from an old friend of mine from my Government days back in DC. She sounded pretty badly shaken up. I know I have a rule about personal cases, but this may turn out to be good for us to handle. If you don't think it's worth it, step away now. I won't hold it against you." To his surprise, they're all standing their ground.

Kim then smirks and says, "Looks like we're going with you, Norman. What's the sitch?"

Norman smiles back slightly as he replies, "Dr. Mona Williams, a Medical Expert and a dear friend of mine, has been threatened by unknown parties. She can't go to the Police up over there because the Chief of the Police seems to be a friend of the threatening party. She said she'd fill us in upon arrival."

Bonnie nods before pondering something and asks, "How'd she find you, Norman? This is supposed to be a secured Government site."

"She and I worked together before we transferred to our original work sites. Undoubtedly, she used the Government listings to find me. Since she last saw me in LA before Jesse's death, she probably tried there first. I'll say this much. When it comes to Government matters and their personnel, they keep the listings up to date. Including the Marital Status of such personnel. Since you're independents, you're not listed."

"Because of Jesse Mach?"

"Yep, that's right, Kim. When he died, they made some changes as to listings of personnel involved with the projects that are considered to be classified."

Jessica then grins and asks, "When do we go, Norman?"

"No time like the present, Jessica." He then opens Street Hawk's chamber and thinks, 'I hope Mona will be all right.'

Meanwhile, Ron and Hirotaka go over to the massive chamber holding Street Hawk while Jessica gets their suits and Bonnie goes over to the War Bird helicopter. Meanwhile, Lily helps Jane and Kim into Rolling Base as Norman opens the roof access for the helicopter.

Bonnie changes into her armored-flight suit within the helicopter, figuring it would save time that way. She finishes changing in time to see Ron and Hirotaka wheeling the cycle toward the helo. Opening the right rear door, she smiles as the guys roll the highly-classified, ultra-sophisticated motorcycle into the rear area of the helo's cabin.

As Jessica brings Ron's suit to the helo, he says, "Here's the plan according to what Norman had told me on the phone while en route. Bonnie and I are to take point while you and Hirotaka cover us. Norman, Kim and Jane will keep the Doctor company. It's up to all four of us to be sure the hostiles don't get to them while we investigate. Bonnie and I'll fly ahead to find a secured landing spot. You and Hirotaka fly with the others on Sky Base. Upon arrival, we'll camouflage the helo and the plane before going into the village to see Dr. Williams."

"What do we do if we're attacked while arriving there? Are we going to be in uniform?"

"Yep, we are. If attacked, return the favor. Memory blankers only. Let's try having a bloodless mission for once."

Jessica chuckles in agreement as she says, "Yeah. If Dracula was to be here right now, he'd be bloated and begging us to ease up on the bloodshed." That causes them to laugh as Bonnie starts the helo's twin turbines. "See you guys later!" She then runs over to Rolling Base as War Bird's rotary pitch increases.

When she gets there and inside, she asks, "Where are we going, Norman?"

"A small coastal village in Oregon, Jessica. It's so small, you can't even find it on the map anywhere. It's a good thing the computer has a tracing program on the phone line, otherwise we'd really have problems. I've already gotten the GPS coordinates written down and ready to be entered into Sky Base's computer. I've already gotten them programmed into War Bird's system."

At that, Rolling Base leaves Command Center while Lily mans the main console, ready to assist if Sky Base's portable control system malfunctions. At the same time, War Bird rises out of the roof of Command Center and flies onward.

Two minutes later, Bonnie hits the thrusters, pushing Ron into the back of the co-pilot's seat. "Eager to get there, Bon-Bon?"

"Well, I figure the sooner we get there and done, the easier it'll be for Norman's friend to live in peace. Everyone has that right, Ron."

"True, Bon-Bon. But, haste is not always a good thing. Too many things can happen between here and there. Remember your adventure in Hazzard?"

At that, Bonnie chuckles as she cuts the thrusters and replies, "All too well, Ron. All too well. Do you know how hard you rock?"

"No, can't say as I do."

"You rock so very hard, Ron Stoppable. I'm glad you chewed me out that day. I guess you could say I needed a verbal slap in the face to wake up and smell the sweet smell of friendship."

"Glad to be of service, Bon-Bon. Glad to be of service. What do you think, Rufus?"

Rufus pops his head out of Ron's pants pocket and nods just before ducking back down. "He agrees with me." At that, Bonnie laughs more loudly, richly and lively than before.

"Only you, Ron. Only you can make a tense situation disappear with humor."

She then activates the autopilot, reaches a hand over to Ron and he softly squeezes it, giving her reassurance that it'll be all right. Little do they realize the situation at hand will hit one of them very hard and on a very personal level.

Meanwhile, Rolling Base arrives at the Air Field and Hirotaka opens the hangar's doors. As the van rolls into the hangar, Norman decides to see how much space Sky Base has to fit Rolling Base in. Before, he had no such luck in getting the old Step-van into Sky Base because of it's body size and width. Nodding for Hirotaka to open the rear cargo door, he pulls around to the back of the plane just as he sees the rear door start to lower.

When it reaches the ground, Hirotaka appears at the top of the ramp and waves Norman on in. Within three minutes, Rolling Base is inside Sky Base, with room to spare for the doors to open without banging into anything. Jane and Kim elect to keep their seats as they stroke their bellies, soft smiles on their faces.

Jane then smiles as she says, "When I was carrying Felix, George was so excited. He started making big plans for what they'd do together as Father and son. Be it from go-cart races to camping trips, he'd plan it. I wasn't even five months along when he started planning all that." Both of the Mothers-to-be share a laugh before Jane sighs sadly.

"Let me guess. Ben Logan ruined all that on Felix's birthday, right?"

"Yeah. Felix had just turned fifteen when it happened. That man was so drunk, it was a wonder he didn't die before he crashed. It pains me to say this, but there were days I wished that man had died so he wouldn't have hurt Felix at all. If he hadn't been hurt, you and Ron could have stayed on your Maternity vacation."

"Jane, if Ron had stayed with me on Maternity vacation, he would have gone stark raving mad and I wouldn't have been far behind him. You see, Ron and I are the type of people that simply hates waiting to do something. Be it from having a good time to stomping some goons, it beats being bored out of our skulls. Yet, I agree with you on that part of the drunk dying wish."

At that, both of them feel the plane reach takeoff velocity and fly on toward it's destination in Oregon.
