He didn't care. He would finally have his revenge on those he blamed for his previous failures. So they continued to walk down the path all but Shego had traveled before.
It was only a short while later that they arrived at their destination. The entrance to the cave system where they had fought more than a year ago. Monkey Fist led the way deep into one of the many paths that existed within the mountain.
They gasped as they came to a massive door, engraved in gold and accented with red, it was a mural telling the story of ancient warriors. The scenes were pretty self-explanatory, but Monkey Fist explained them anyway.
"Many years ago, this was a training ground for the most advanced students of the school, The man who built it was only the beginning. His students found training methods that allowed them to unlock their true power. They could have used their power to rule. Instead they squandered it protecting others, pathetic ideals really. Ideals that you share. I found this place after escaping from that ridiculous cell that you called a prison. I have studied their techniques and unlocked my full power, and this will be our fighting ground."
Monkey Fist put his hand against one of the engraved golden murals and pushed inward. The panel moved inward toward the room. It stopped after only an inch. A rumbling sound could be heard throughout the natural highways of the caves.
Ron stepped back as the door started to push outward. He covered his eyes as the room came into view. An inner light shone from within it. Light bounced off every surface of the highly polished gold that covered almost every surface. Hanging on the wall opposite them was the one and only, Kim Possible.
"KIM!" Ron moved with such speed that you could see a trail as what little dust was in the room followed in his wake. He pulled her into his arms. "Kim, wake up Kim, are you okay?"
"Uh, Ron? Run, you can't beat him, get out of here." Kim collapsed back into unconciousness.
A burning fire of hatred appeared in Ron's eyes. His voice rang coldly through the room. "What have you done to her Fiske?"
"Nothing, She's perfectly healthy."
"Shego, Yori, get her down while I take care of Fiske." Ron turned to face Lord Monty Fiske. "Let's do this." The cold empty look in his eye would have scared even Kim. He walked calmly toward his enemy. Monkey Fist made the first move. His body made the familiar blurring movement as he started at full speed. His leg headed straight toward Ron's face. The young hero made no move to avoid it. He remained perfectly still until the moment when it would have made contact.
Ron moved his head forward causing the leg to move entirely over him and slam directly into Ron's hand. It closed in a death grip on Fiske's leg.
Ron pushed his arm forward and sent Fiske flying toward the wall. Ron followed closely behind him and as soon as his black garbed opponent hit, he threw an unrelenting assault of punches.
The jack hammering motion of Fiske's body kept him from mounting any kind of defense. Ron jumped into the air and spun his body into a kick.
Monkey Fist went slamming into the wall on his left.
Ron charged at him and threw his fist at Monty's head. Fiske ducked under the fist and watched in horror as it decimated the stone wall behind him.
He shot into the air and looked down where Ron had been standing.
"Wrong way Fiskie." Monty turned to face the man above him. His nose broke as the elbow slammed into his face.
Monkey Fist fell to the ground as he lost control of his power. "How'd, you do that?" the psychotic Monkey Fist asked.
"I jumped." Ron said as he landed silently on his feet. He moved closer to the man on the ground.
Monty Fiske backed away from the young man. "It isn't possible." The genetically modified human made his way back to his feet. He started to bow to Ron. "I." Monkey Fist suddenly shot upward. His fist drove straight into Ron's throat. "SHALL NEVER ACCEPT DEFEAT!"
Ron moved back choking from the cheap shot. Monkey Fist smiled as he began his own offensive. He drove his other fist into Ron's stomach. His leg came out and swept the young blond from his feet.
Ron landed hard on his back. He struggled to bring air back into his lungs.
Monty's leg came hurtling at Ron's head. Ron in turn went rolling across the floor as if his body were a limp doll. "Uugghh." His body came to rest against one of the golden walls.
Kim stared at her fallen love. Yori had managed to wake her up a little bit into the fight. She'd watched Ron fight with a fury she'd never seen in him. She had been so absorbed in the fight that she never even noticed the other woman standing next to her was Shego.
"Ron, Ron wake up. Ron, wake up, please?" Her voice didn't raise above a whisper. "Come on Ron, I was wrong, you can beat him."
Ron started to move around.
"RON!"
Ron's eyes snapped open. He stared at the foot ready to crush his skull. He threw his legs up, causing him to flip right over Monkey Fist. A knee slammed into the lord's back. Ron's hand wrapped around the thin neck of his nemesis.
He pushed his opponent's head into the wall. Ron jumped back and let the man compose himself. "You'd better learn that I don't go down so easily." Ron took a battle stance and motioned for Monkey Fist to attack.
"I didn't think I'd have to use this technique on you. So be it Stoppable, I have no choice." He moved his palms close to each other. A dark blue energy started to seep from every pore of his body. The energy started to run down his arms into the palms of his hands.
Ron's eyes darkened as he realized that Monkey Fist was going to attack him using all his energy. There was no choice but for Ron to do the same. He started to build his energy into his right hand. "I really don't think you want to do this Fiske. I was beating you every step of the way. Don't doubt that I can summon a lot more energy than you can."
"Maybe so, Stoppable. BUT SHE CAN'T!" Monkey Fist abruptly turned and sent the softball sized blast straight at Kim.
"NOOOOOOOO!"
Ron felt time slow down as he ran in front of the energy. He skidded to a stop in front of the three women.
His arm raised in Monkey Fist's direction.
The golden energy flew from his hand in a steady stream of power. It struck in the middle of Fiske's chest.
Lord Monty Fiske died in that instant.
Ron remained standing as the energy exploded against him. Kim got to her feet. "Thank you Ron. You saved my life."
"Good job Stoppable."
"You have proved yourself a true warrior Stoppable-san."
"Are you..." Ron collapsed to the floor.
"NO, RON!" Kim rushed to his side. "Ron, wake up. Don't do this, wake up, your stronger than that. I know you are, wake up."
Kim's voice faded as she turned him over. His body was covered in burns from where the blast had hit him.
"No." Her voice was choked with fear as she stared at her love's body. "Ron, please, I love you. Please don't leave. Wake up Ron. Wake up."
"Please?"
