Kim Possible and Street Hawk vs the Town Bullies p 6
Disclaimer: I do not own Kim Possible or Street Hawk. Wish I did though.
Briefing and Meetings
Billy and Ron reach Mona's cabin, with Billy looking nervously around him. He then asks, "Do you ever get the feeling you're being watched?"
"Nah. Who'd want to watch me? I'm not very entertaining." Just as he finishes, the door opens and Mona is standing in the doorway, a smile on her face.
"I see you made a new friend, Billy."
"Yeah, I did, Mona. But he's a little secretive, though. If he isn't already one, he should be a spook. He'd pull it off without a problem." He then asks, "What's going on, Mona? How does he know you?"
"He's a friend of a friend of mine. We just met this afternoon. Ron, where's Bonnie at?"
"She's with Hirotaka right now. He figures they'll be done just before sunup. In any case, I did some recon."
"What'd you find?"
"The less ears and eyes, the better. Is Norman up?"
"Yeah, he is."
"Good. I hope he's not driving Jane crazy." At that, Rufus pops his head out of Ron's pocket and nods in agreement.
With that, both men go inside, with Billy wondering why a sea lion wouldn't drive another person crazy when it does other people. He even wonders why his 'new best friend' has a naked mole rat in his pants pocket. He then sees a pregnant young red-headed woman sitting with another pregnant woman with blond hair and Norman right between them, getting his head rubbed.
The young woman then smiles and says, "That's a good sea lion. You like getting your head rubbed, don't you?" Norman's barking is her reply and she softly giggles before looking up. "Hey, Ron. Who's your friend?"
"Kim, this is Billy. It seems that Billy is friends with Mona. Billy, this is my wife, Kim. With her is Jane, Norman's wife."
Thinking the sea lion had finally gained some luck, Billy grins and says, "Well, you certainly bounce back well, Norman. Extremely well."
"Thank you." Billy then turns around to see a man with greying curly brown hair and a smile on his face. "Hi, I'm Norman Tuttle. I see you know Mona already, along with the sea lion she named after me."
Billy does a double take before chuckling and shaking his head. "Yeah, I do. What brings you here, Mr. Tuttle?"
"Actually, Billy, I called him. He's an old friend of mine from my Government days. When Sam threatened me the other day, he was the first one, if not the only one, I chose to turn to."
Billy, in shock, turns to Mona and asks, "He threatened you? My word."
"I know. Norman and his friends are up here to help. Ron, how'd the snoop go?"
"It went all right. Bonnie was shaken up with seeing her Father for the first time in years. But, she told me she'll personally enjoy busting Mr. Rockwaller's ass. Yet, I can't help but wonder about something."
Kim asks, "About what, honey?"
"If he'll have a heart attack when he finds out Bonnie is not my wife and is his daughter at the same time."
Billy waves his arms and says, "Now you've officially lost me. Kim's your wife, yet Bonnie isn't. Is it me or am I out of the loop here?"
Kim smirks softly and replies, "You're out of the loop, at the moment. Ron, fill in Billy. Please and thank you." Ron nods and does so. When he's done, Billy sits back in stunned silence. He seems to take it pretty well.
"I think I'm gonna be sick. My friends, wanting to kill the woman I love, the sea lion she nursed back to health and me. You guys here to stop them. The woman I love having an old friend from her Government days come in to save the day with you guys."
Jane smiles sadly as she says, "I know it's a lot to take in. But, please, trust us on this. Ron, what time is it?"
Ron checks the time and his jaw drops. "Whoa, time flies when you're briefing someone. I better get back to Bonnie and relieve Hirotaka before the sun rises." With that, Ron pecks Kim on the cheek and says, "We should be done by today, KP. Oh, could you watch over Rufus?"
"Yeah, I think I could handle that. I hope we are done by today, Ron. I miss having your hands on my belly when I'm asleep." She then kisses Ron right back as he puts his hands on her belly.
"I know. I miss it too, sweetheart." He then gets onto his knees and kisses her belly, with her rubbing his head as he does so. "I love you, KP."
"I love you too, Ron." She then smiles sadly as Ron walks out the door and strokes her belly, saying, "I hope it won't be the last time he kisses my belly. I so love his belly kisses."
Jane nods and says, "I know exactly how you feel, Kim." She then jolts as she feels a kick within her womb. "Oh, this one's going to be a feisty one." Smiling at Kim, she remarks, "I so missed these days. Well, aside from the morning sickness."
"Yeah, I know what you mean, Jane. Chances are, Sousuke and Kaname are at school right now, going through one of Sousuke's detonations. Even more, something tells me their child will be another 'Demolition Man' type of person. Just like Sousuke."
Jane softly laughs in agreement with Kim's statement. This causes a perplexed Mona and Billy to look at them both like they had gone mad.
Billy then asks, "What do you mean by detonations?"
Mona pipes in with, "Who're Sousuke and Kaname?"
In Japan, a young man is calling out, "Clear the area! Clear the area! An explosion is about to happen!" With that warning, the students scatter just as the detonation happens.
KABOOM!
As the smoke clears, a young woman is counting the times she had heard explosions within the school and nods at her math. "Just couldn't resist, could you, Sousuke?"
"I couldn't help it, Kaname. Someone has tampered with my locker again." He then sighs and adds, "Perhaps I should do as Miss Saeki suggested. Rig a concussion grenade, just to save some time."
"Sousuke, I think she was just being sarcastic."
"Mr. Sagara, are you all right?"
"Affirmative, Miss Kagurazaka. It seems someone is intent on disrupting our happiness."
"Only you're ruining their plans, along with the school! Is that your goal in life? To reduce every building you enter to mere rubble?"
"Negative. My goal is to keep my Fiancee and our unborn son safe. No matter what, I intend to accomplish that mission." With that, the young man loops his arm into his Fiancee's and they walk on, ignoring the destroyed letter.
Back in the States, Ron is approaching the Inn as he sees the sun start to rise, casting a red hue on the horizon. Scaling the wall, courtesy of the knives Hirotaka had used as a ladder, he reaches their bedroom window. To his relief, Hirotaka is already up and in his gi.
"Good morning, Stoppable-san."
"You too, Hirotaka. Is Bonnie asleep now?"
"Yes, she is. She told me of how you consoled her following the encounter with her Father. Had it been me, I would have beheaded him instantly. Far as I can tell, she clearly made the right choice in asking Kim first before asking you." He then grins as he puts his mask on and adds, "You're so much like a brother to her now, as she is like your sister. It seems we are a family of sorts."
"Well, as long as we don't become like the Addams family, we should be all right." Hirotaka softly laughs as he disappears from the window's edge and Ron closes the window.
When he turns around, he sees the blanket had pooled around Bonnie's nude body. Her awake and standing nude body. "Good morning, Ron-Ron."
Bonnie giggles at her seductive coo as Ron bolts into the bathroom. Five minutes later, Ron comes back out of the bathroom, his mission clothes in hand and clad only in his boxers.
"I'm going to get some coffee from the machine down the hall. Want any, Bon-Bon?"
"Oh yes, definitely. Then, you can tell me about how much you enjoyed it, honey."
He then leans into her ear and whispers, "It was very fulfilling, Bonnie. Only, we have a new ally to work with. Or at least I hope so."
"What do you mean?"
"Your Dad's planning to kill the Doctor, a man she's obviously nuts about, and Norman."
"Which one?"
"The sea lion." At Bonnie's shocked and angry gasp, he goes on. "It's going to get really ugly before it gets any prettier."
"I agree." She then stretches and asks, "How about that coffee, Ron-Ron?"
"You got it, Bon-Bon." Bonnie giggles as Ron opens the door and walks out, leaving the door cracked.
As Ron makes his way to the coffee machine, he sees a man wearing a Police uniform walking out of a room. Not just any uniform. A Police Chief's uniform. As the Police Chief closes the door, Ron can hear sobbing from within the room. The sobs of a broken woman.
Making like he's putting it out of his mind, Ron makes it to the coffee pot and pours two cups of coffee, remembering to get cream and sugar for both Bonnie and himself. When he's done, he makes his way back to the room, with the Police Chief eying him strangely.
Upon his return to the room, Ron mixes the cream and sugar into the coffee. He then takes it to a still nude, but covered, Bonnie and hands her a cup while sitting down. "I think I know what Mona meant by what she said regarding the Police Chief."
"How do you mean, Ron?" As he tells her, her face darkens with anger. She then slams the still-hot coffee down her throat and takes a deep breath. "Damn, that's some good and hot coffee. I think I'm so angry at my Father, it dulled the pain of the heat. When do we move?"
"The sooner, the better. We'd better check on the woman first, though. Just to be sure she's all right."
"Agreed. Let me get dressed right quick and we'll go together."
"Roger." At that, Ron goes into the bathroom to get his usual clothes on while Bonnie gets her bikini and dress back on. When they're both done, they loop arms with each other and go to the room that Ron heard sobs from. When they get there, Ron knocks on the door.
"Who is it?"
Bonnie replies, "Just a couple of people that might be able to help, if you need it."
The door opens to reveal a woman, with bruises on her face and long black hair. "How can you help me?"
"Get you out of this mess for one thing and into a support group for victims like yourself so you can get counseling."
Incredulous, the woman asks, "Have you ever been raped before?"
"No ma'am, I haven't. But I know how badly you're hurting. Someone betraying you and your trust can be very painful."
"Please, come in." She opens the door all the way, allowing the two inside. "I'm Maria Thomas. And you are?"
"I'm Bonnie Rockwaller and this is my friend, Ron Stoppable."
Maria's eyes go wide in shock as she asks, "Did you just say Rockwaller?"
"Yeah, I did. I already know about the man that shares my last name. As much as it pains me to say it, that man is my Father."
Her face frowning even more, Maria says, "I see. Are you here to cover up his crimes against the village?"
Ron replies, "No, Maria. We're here to help stop him. Are you familiar with Dr. Mona Williams?"
"Yes. She's lived here for the past eighteen years." Maria's face brightens as she goes on. "She really loves animals. Just five months ago, she nursed a sea lion back to health. My husband approves of her skill and her caring. Or, rather, he did."
Having a bad feeling, Bonnie asks, "What happened, Mrs. Thomas?"
"The Police Chief told me that Greg had been arrested and the only way to arrange bail for him was for me to sleep with him. I didn't believe him and refused. He then grabbed me and brought me here. As he raped me, he told me Greg had died as a result of my refusal and that I should enjoy it. As I would never feel a man's affection ever again." Maria then sniffles as she looks up at them.
"I was about to do something to end my pain, so I can be with my beloved Greg again. But, my heart is telling me he's still alive. He might be worried to death about me."
"If he is, we'll find him, Maria. Do you know where he hangs out at?"
"The tavern, just down the docks. Mr. Stoppable, I thank you for your kind words and also your asking me. But, please, if you find him, don't tell Greg about what had happened. If anyone should tell him, it's me. It's my fault."
"Maria, being raped is not your fault. If anyone is to be blamed, it's the Chief of Police. Abuse of power by Authority figures is a serious no-no. He, my Father and their cronies will be stopped. No matter what."
Maria nods and asks, "Does your Father know you're here?"
"No, not just yet. He'll find out after some friends from the outside deal with him. I'll tell you something more about him. He was the reason I was such a bitch to Ron. A reason that I'll be most happy to handle on my terms." At that, she gives Maria her barracuda smile as she and Ron get ready to walk out the door.
As the door closes behind them, Maria hopes that Greg will be all right.
As Bonnie and Ron leave the Inn, they pick up the presence of the Police Chief right behind them. "Where are you two going?"
Ron turns around, grins and replies, "To the tavern, sir. Just looking for a good time with my bride, that's all."
The Police Chief nods and says, "Well, better hurry. The tavern's about to close. Have a good day."
"Oh, my groom and I certainly will, Chief. We certainly will." As the Police Chief lets them go on, Bonnie shudders inwardly. "Did you see how fat he was?"
"Oh yeah. He was about as fat as Hu Chong Wang was before he lost weight the easy way. Both their bellies looked like they had four watermelons inside it." Bonnie lightly giggles at that as they near the tavern.
"Any other funny comments come to mind, Ron? Perhaps my Father?"
"Yeah. Your Father's so fat, when he plays pool, he plays it with the planets." Bonnie screeches with laughter as she wraps Ron in a hug.
"That is so true! Give me another one, if you please."
"Okay. Your Father's so fat, when he sits around his boat, he sits around it. Problem is, the boat always winds up getting crammed up into his crack." That gets him another screech of laughter before Bonnie winces.
"Ouch! Now that's an image I don't need. But that was so funny." Bonnie's laughter tapers off just as Ron opens the door. Within the doorway, they see a man with a slight pot belly and a dejected look upon his face. Even more, there are dry tear trails from his eyes.
Concerned, Ron asks, "Sir? Are you okay?"
"She left me. My Maria left me. Was I such a bad husband?"
Recalling the conversation, Ron replies, "No sir, at least I don't think so. In fact, I have a question for you. Are you Greg Thomas by any chance?"
"Yes, I am, young fella."
Bonnie smiles softly and says, "Well, we happened to have come across Maria. She's at the 'Fisherman's Inn' right now. She needs your support, even more now than before."
Greg's eyes light up as he asks, "She does?" At Bonnie's nod, he asks, "What does she need my support for, young lady?"
"I'm sorry, but she specifically told us that she wishes to tell you. When we came across her, she was considering ending her life. That's how bad it was. I'm afraid that's as far as I can safely describe it."
"I see. I thank you for bringing me this news. Who are you? Are you angels?"
Ron smiles softly and replies, "Not exactly. You might say that, but Maria needs you, right now. She'll tell you upon arrival."
Greg then smiles and hugs them both, saying, "Thank you! I don't care what anybody says! There are angels! In you!" At that, he runs to the Inn, hoping to see Maria. In seconds, he's a blur.
Bonnie blinks as he fades away from sight. "Whoa. How fast do you think he was going, Ron?"
"I'll put it to you like this. If he was to race against Street Hawk on foot, with Street Hawk at Hyperthrust, it'd be very close." Bonnie laughs again as they go into the tavern.
"You're too much, Ron. You're simply too much. But, don't you dare ever change." She then drapes her arm around his shoulders and says, "A glass of bourbon for my groom, barkeep!"
The bartender smirks and says, "I'll have to see your ID, please."
Ron, feeling like the drink would be a bad idea, not to mention the makings of a trap, grins and says, "Scratch that order. Do you have any orange juice?" The bartender winks in reply and brings it up for him.
"Good choice, young fella. Much healthier than that rotgut I serve in here. Besides, you don't look to be the drinkin' type. What would be your delight, young lady?"
"I'll have what he's having." Bonnie smiles on the inside, knowing that Ron's keeping their cover intact even better than she could. When they both get their glasses of orange juice, they clink the glasses together and drink. "Ah, fresh orange juice."
She then looks over at Ron and says, "Sorry about that."
"Don't worry, Bon-Bon. A honeymoon is exciting enough for one to forget their ages. And besides, booze is so not a good idea. Especially with what we do. After all, a drunk driver was the one responsible."
"Yeah, it was." Bonnie grins smugly on the inside, realizing that Ron's talking about Felix Renton and his paralysis.
When the two finish their orange juice, they leave the now closing tavern and head for Mona's cabin. Three minutes later, they arrive and start forming their plans with their colleagues.
