Chapter 17

Drakken's Lair
Kim stopped in front of Ron's door. She had thought that she was ready to tell him about her relationship with Shego, but now, it seemed that even the great Kim Possible was having doubts.
What if he overreacts? It could ruin our friendship. Or, even worse, what if he assumes the worst and thinks that Shego has me mind controlled or something? He might go out for revenge. Why the hell does life have to be so damn hard?
Kim took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Well, whatever happens, I have to do this. He would tell me if anything was going on with him and someone else. It's only fair that I do the same.
"Come in." Ron's voice said from behind the door.
Kim opened the door and stepped inside. Ron had been watching some television. He immediately turned it off when he realized it was Kim that had come to see him.
"What's up, KP?"
Kim tried to speak, but the words seemed to get caught in her throat.
"Did Drakken get a lock on J-Go, yet?"
"No, that's not why I'm here."
"Then, what's up?"
"Well, uhm…"
Ron began to notice Kim's nervousness.
"Is something wrong?"
"No, nothing's…wrong…per say."
"Kim, if something's wrong, you know you can tell me. We've been friends forever. Nothing's going to change that."
Kim was stunned.
It was as if he was reading my fears. How the hell does he do that all the time? It's like he knows exactly what to say and when.
After the words of reassurance, Kim felt as if she could tell Ron anything.
"Well, Ron, it's about Shego."
"Yeah, Kim. I'm worried about her too."
"The fact is, me and Shego are kinda hooked up."
Ron sat with a blank expression on his face for a moment.
"And…"
"And, what?"
"Is there anything you'd like to tell me that I didn't figure out two years ago?"
"But we weren't like that two years ago. We just hooked up a couple of days ago."
"Well, I always kinda figured that you two were at least friends, and if not, girlfriends."
"Why would you just assume something like that?"
Ron began counting off the reasons on his fingers.
"One, no matter how many times you've actually fought Shego, neither of you have sustained any serious injuries. Two, you have never been able to hold a steady relationship with a boy, except me. And that relationship is a just friends relationship. And, Three, well, I just think you two make such a cute couple." Ron began to laugh.
"Well, are you ready to hear the shocking part?"
"Sure."
"I'm also hooked up with Psygo."
Ron had not been ready for that one. He stopped laughing imediatly.
"Okay, that one threw me for a second. I guess you really can do anything. Including swing both ways."
"Ron, you're taking this disturbingly well."
"Kim, we have had to face life and death situations on a daily basis. We've taken down some of the top criminals in the world. Hell, we've scaled mountains and been to the bottom of the ocean. Finding out my best friend is bisexual, whilebeing atthe top of the list, is not so traumatizing after the rest of the things on the list."
"I guess you're right about that."
"You're my best friend, KP. If this is what makes you happy, then I'm fine with it. You have my support."
Kim felt the tears in her eyes beginning to surface and hugged Ron.
"Thanks, Ron. You have no idea how much this means to me."
"No, I think I've got a pretty good idea."

J-Go's Warehouse hideoutShego began to stir from her telepathically induced coma. She tried to open her eyes, but found that even with them open, they still needed to adjust. Shego tried to move, but found her arms and legs were held back by something. As her eyes started to adjust, Shego could make out some king of metal harnesses encasing her hands. Her feet had similar bindings and she was suspended about three inches above the floor. Her body was forced into a spread eagle position from the way the metal harnesses were attached to a large metal frame.
"Ah, I see that my little prize has finally awakened." A voice said from the shadows.
J-Go emerged from the shadows and walked around the large frame that was holding Shego prisoner.
"I'm sorry for the conditions, but because of your powers, I had to go with something practical instead of something comfortable. I had to whip this up in about three hours, so be glad it's even as comfortable as it is."
Shego tried lighting up her hands with green plasma, but it seemed to do nothing to the restraints.
"I would save my energy if I were you. That metal is what they use to create jet plane afterburners. It'll withstand everything you can put out and more."
Another figure began to move from the shadows. Shego tried to see who it was, but couldn't identify them until they had exited the shadows.
"Vaigo? What the fuck is going on?" Shego yelled at Vaigo. Vaigo walked up to the bound green woman and put a hand on her cheek.
"It's really quite simple. I'm going to kill you." Vaigo said, a small laugh escaping her.
Shego strained against her bindings.
"You bitch! You betrayed us!"
J-Go had been watching with amusement at the scene before him.
"Calm down, Shego. We're not going to kill you. You're much too useful to me alive. Vaigo's is just a little enthusiastic. She only just became evil and there is so much she has yet to try."
Shego didn't like where this was going. And it WAS going. Fast.
"If you're not going to kill me, then why the hell did you kidnap me?"
"Bait. I'm going to lure Psygo out here and bring him down."
"Is that it? That's pathetic."
"Oh, no. That's not even the half of my plan. But I've seen way too many schemes go down the drain because the villain got too confident and told his entire plan."
Shego cursed under her breath.
Dammit! I was hoping he'd make that mistake.
"Yes, I know you were hoping that." J-Go said with a smile.
"You can read my mind?" Shego asked, hoping the answer would be no.
"Of course. How do you think I was able to predict everyone's moves in the last fight? Well, I've had enough questions for today. I think it's time for me to start on the first part of my plan."
J-Go's eyes flashed gold for a second. All of Shego's clothes were suddenly and violently ripped from her.
"Is it really necessary for her to be naked?" Vaigo asked, clearly annoyed.
"Yes. Skin contact provides the best reaction. Besides, she has a power that I want to explore for a bit before I really get started." J-Go answered, not turning from his work.
"You know, Shego, you're very beautiful. I see why Psygo fell in love with you."
Shego spit at J-Go, but it stopped before it hit him and dropped to the floor.
"That's alright, Shego. You must be very angry with me right now. If you could, you'd probably kill me. But I forgive you for such small things as this. Because what I'm about to do to you will remain in your mind for the rest of your life."
A small gold ball of energy emerged from J-Go's finger. He pressed it to Shego's exposed midsection, burning into her and sending a hiss of pain from Shego. J-Go took the ball of energy from her body and watched as the small wound healed in a matter of minutes.
"Interesting. This is going to be fun. And by the end of this little session, Shego, I will break you."
J-Go stood back and raised his hand. Gold rings of energy appeared around Shego's arms, legs, and midsection. As J-Go began to close his hand into a fist, the rings enclosed around Shego's body, tightening until they made contact with her skin. As soon as they made contact, the rings began to hiss and burn. Shego clenched her teeth in pain, not wanting to give J-Go the pleasure of hearing her scream.
"Go on, Shego. Let it out. I know it hurts."
Shego lifted her head enough to see J-Go.
"Fuck you. When I get out of this thing, I'm going to revisit this pain on you tenfold."
"You poor misguided fool. What makes you think you'll have a will of your own. By the time I'm done with you, you'll be begging me to take you on as my own personal slave."
"I'd rather die."
J-Go's temper flared up.
"You should be careful what you wish for."
J-Go's hand closed into a full fist, forcing the rings to tighten on Shego even more. The pain Shego was feeling was unbearable.J-Goregained his composure and dropped his hand. The rings around Shego disappeared, leaving deep burns across her green tinted skin.
"I have another surprise in store for you, Shego. But I'll have to wait until your wounds heal. Until then, I'll let Vaigo have some fun."
Vaigo perked up a bit. Suddenly, her expression went blank and her eyes flashed gold.
"There. I've transferred all of my knowledge of the human body's nervous system. She knows everything I do about pain and all of its forms."
Vaigo walked over to Shego and phased her hand into the green woman's midsection. Shego gasped at the feeling of it. Suddenly, pain began to ripple through her body.
"What the hell is going on?" Shego asked through clenched teeth.
"She's manipulating your nerve endings. She can direct the nerves in your body to hit you with wave after wave of pain. Or she can focus it all down to one point of pure unending suffering. It should be amusing to watch for the few hours it'll take you to heal."
Shego's eyes went wide with understanding before she was hit with another wave of pain.
My healing. The sooner I get done healing, the sooner she'll stop. I have to focus.
Shego tried focusing on healing, but the constant waves of pain were seriously hindering her. It was taking all of her concentration just to block out the pain to concentrate.
Dammit, Vaigo. Just one little slip. Just one.
At that moment, Vaigo stopped. She had been holding her breath the entire time, relishing the look of pain on Shego's face. Now she had to stop and catch her breath.
Shego had all the time she needed. Now that she had her focus, not even the impending waves of pain would be able to shake it. The wounds on her body began to heal themselves at a much more accelerated rate than they had before. Even when Vaigo continued with the torture, the wounds kept healing. Within only half an hour, the wounds were almost completely healed.
J-Go's hand came to rest on Vaigo's shoulder.
"That's enough, Vaigo. She's healed enough for me to continue."
Vaigo removed her hand from Shego's body and backed away, a sad look on her face.
"Don't worry, Vaigo. Once my plan is finished, you can have as much fun as you want."
J-Go turned back to Shego, who was now breathing heavily and in ragged gasps. Her hair had matted to her body from the sweat that dripped from her.
"Now do you understand what I have in store for you. With only my KNOWLEDGE of the human nervous system, a regular person can inflict a great deal of pain. And with my powers, I can replicate any kind of pain I choose."
J-Go put his hand on Shego's shoulder.
"For example. Without even trying, I can make you feel like you're burning alive."
J-Go's hand began to glow gold.
Shego arched her back at the pain that covered her body. Every inch of her skin felt like it was on fire.
"Perhaps the opposite, now."
Shego's body felt like it had just been thrown into the arctic waters. Thousands of needles of cold pain flew across her skin.
"Now, for a more complex one. How about electricity?"
J-Go put his other hand on Shego's other shoulder. It too began to glow gold.
The scream that Shego had been holding back suddenly ripped from her throat as her entire body convulsed. The pain of a millionvolts of electricity was simply too much to take. Her back arched and her eyes began to roll up into the back of her head. Without warning, the pain stopped. Shego's body dropped as far as it could, the only thing holding her up being the metal constraints.
J-Go stood back for a second to let his prisoner regain herself before he continued. Shego stood up and looked J-Go straight in the eye.
"So, how was it?" J-Go asked, an evil grin forming on his face.
"I've…had…worse." Shego said between breaths.
J-Go's temper flared again and he backhanded Shego across the face. Shego paused for a moment, then rolled her tongue around in her mouth. She spit out the blood that had been let out when he had struck and looked up at him again, her lip bleeding slightly.
"Is that all you've got?"
J-Go was almost crazy with rage. He took a few deep breaths, then turned back to Shego, laughing.
"Shego…I've only just begun."
Shego began to regret what she had said, but she couldn't admit to that. She couldn't let J-Go see any kind of weakness from her.
Dammit, Psygo. Help me.
J-Go heard the thought as it traveled through Shego's brain.
"Not even he can help you now."

Author's notes
Now we see what kind of person J-Go really is. And, by the way, people. I hope you're happy with the work I've done for this particular chapter. It took me a while to come up with a scene violent enough to work. Not to mention, I had to figure out a way to incorporate Vaigo into the mix. Oh, and if the scene with Kim wasn't very good, it's because I'm not very good with social situations and I don't know how Ron really would have reacted to something like that.
