The WEE agent trio went back to their apartment base in Go city. They weren't exactly filled with glee given how their mission had ended in monumental failure. Epsilon rested while icing his Jaw. Fast healing or not the punch he received was ridiculous and he needed to heal.

"Why didn't we challenge them when he went down again? I didn't even get to taste any blood today." Chi said

"You're lucky he didn't reduce you into a pile of blood."

"And you know he would have how?"

Beta gave chi a menacing glare. "If he hit you like he hit epsilon your head would have flown off like a Mortal Kombat fatality. The only reason one at least one of us isn't dead is luck. As for why we didn't attack again, did you notice what happened right before he came or were you too intrigued by the prospect of getting to Possible's blood that you didn't notice?"

Chi turned his head to the ground and grumbled. "Wasn't paying too much attention honestly, but didn't that girl stab herself."

"Did you notice that the person, thing, whatever it was looked at her before anyone else? Did you also notice how as soon as it made the connection between her, the knife, and the guy standing near her he tried to kill him?"

"Yes but..."

"Don't give me any fucking buts! I'm in charge here. If we went back in and someone hurt her there was a damn good chance that he would have gotten right back up and finished what he started. We might not have been able to get away that time."

Chi gritted his teeth. "You're right beta."

"Dealing with whatever the hell he was isn't our concern. There's a bounty on alpha that we're here to collect unless headquarters says otherwise. That's our mission."

"Well, we know they split up usually, why don't we just hit the possible house?"

Beta facepalmed. "Chi, what's rule number one before you go on missions?"

"Uh… I think it's try to involve as few civies as possible."

"And how many civies are in the Possible house?"

"er, three, four if you count Kim since she's not technically with GJ."

"So please explain to me how, by your definition, that is involving as few civilians possible?"

Chi growled. He just wanted to get things done, he hated working with beta since he was such a condescending ass.

Beta sat down and continued his one sided conversation. "It is also a very high risk with given that we know that the twins together have taken down Kim possible a few times. We also don't know what kind of tech her father carries at home. Not a good idea."

"So what do you suggest?"

"They know we're a threat now, more seriously than when we attacked alpha, we bide our time, prepare, and wait for them to make their play. No one is invincible."

Bonnie watched with a smile as Ron's chest slowly rose and fell in the late morning. Once again her hero had saved her. The only negative part was that as soon as he woke up he was going to start groveling for not being able to be psychic and protect her every moment of every day. She hoped she could figure out something to say to put him at ease once he awakened.

She wasn't too concerned about his current state. Bonnie, Kim, and Josh all guessed that he had some sort of mystical adrenaline rush and that as soon as she calmed him down he crashed. She loved how protective he was, yet he never managed to cross the line into possessive. She honestly wouldn't mind if he crossed it just a little bit. She was his. All his.

Rufus actually seemed worried about Ron, likely because he didn't see what happened. Bonnie stroked his stomach with the back of her index finger to comfort him. "Ron is strong. Don't worry." She shook her head but laughed when he began doing muscle man poses. Afterwards she pet his head to let him know he was correct.

She began brushing her hand along his hair and cheek. She found it comical that just a year ago he thought she hated his guts, and she was forced to insult him every day just to get any modicum of attention she could from him. Now he is so connected to her that he can feel her pain. Quite the shift. She giggled just a bit to herself, but oddly it seemed like it caused a reaction from him.

Ron's pace for breathing increased dramatically, then his tail started swiping on the bed. Oddly she had adjusted to it pretty quickly. It helped that he was able to keep it wrapped around his waist so he functionally looked normal most of the time. Ron's eyes popped open and they had a bit of a blue glow, he then rose his fists and sat up.

"Come and get it!"

"Okay daddy." Bonnie said with a bit of humor in her voice. Bonnie draped her arms around him from behind and kissed his jaw. She felt his temperature increasing along her lips. When she pulled away he was certainly red with shame.

"Sorry, I thought we were,,,:

"Still fighting?" She said while giggling again.

"Yea…." Ron grasped her hand while looking at the ground. "I'm sorry I wasn't there to protect you bonbon. I can't believe you got stabbed. How is the wound?"

"It's fine. I think I got some of your healing thing since miss Possible said I didn't even need to go to a hospital. She did have to stitch me up though. You won't love me anymore if this flawless bronze skin gets a scar."

Ron wanted to be angry with her but seeing her devilish grin wiped the frown right off of his face. Ron pulled the back of her hand to his lips. "I will always love you Bonnie Rockwaller."

Bonnie blushed, she was pretty sure that was the first time he ever said her full name. "Lets see if you still love me after you find out what happened yesterday."

"What happened? Did you hurt Kim and Josh or something? I knew you and Kim would try to kill each other one day." Ron closed his eyes and shook his head somberly, resulting in a slap to his arm.

"The guys who attacked us aren't the ones who stabbed me…..I stabbed myself."

"Why!?"

Bonnie made sure to grip both of his hands as tightly as she could before she replied. "I need you to not get mad."

"I'll try."

"Ronnieee." She stressed his name and ended with a pout.

"Fine, I promise." He hated how effective her pout was against him.

"….Josh told me to."

Ron closed his eyes and took a very deep breath. He couldn't snatch his hands away without hurting her, and he didn't even want to hurt her a little bit. "Come again?"

"This is exactly why Josh said he didn't want to be within a mile radius of you when you woke up."

Ron put on a creepy fake smile. "Why would I want to do anything to the guy that caused my girlfriend to stab herself. See? I'm calm. Perfectly calm."

Bonnie was slightly taken aback by his demeanor but maintained her grip. "He did it because he knew you would come save me the second you felt that I was in any type of pain. That got the point across but allowed me to be nimble enough to keep dodging. If he hadn't thought of that…."

Ron really did calm down once he saw her mood deflate. She didn't need to finish that sentence. "I understand Bonnie….but how did he know it would work?"

"I believe his exact words were" Bonnie made her face deadpan and her voice flat. "I made an educated guess based on previous mental associations with your mystical energy."

"That sounds just like the robot we all know and love. I guess I can't be too mad at him. It's better than the alternative." He watched as Bonnie picked up her phone and began texting, which was odd for her. She never paid much attention to her phone while she was with him. "What are you doing?"

"Letting Kim know you won't suffocate her boyfriend." she said with a chuckle

He knew she was joking but every ounce of him began to feel dread and he began shying away from her. Something felt off , and dreadful. Bonnie quickly took notice to his large change in demeanor. Then he remembered why he felt this way.

"What's wrong?"

"Before I felt you get stabbed I was meditating and something just felt…..off."

She quirked an eyebrow. "Off? Kinda vague Ronnie."

"This….thing almost suffocated me while I was meditating. I felt like I almost died." He said while rubbing his neck.

"Someone came in the house!?"

His tail swiped to rub her cheek without him really thinking about it. "No bonbon, calm down. I don't think most people on the planet could choke me even if I was unconscious, remember."

"Right...but even if it's something magical aren't you one of the strongest magical beings on the planet? I know you aren't at your full potential yet since your sensei is still more powerful but you're up there. Last time I went with you while you were meditating with him you were at like half or a third of his aura, and yours is being weighted down. I don't get how something could hurt you like you described. What was it like?"

Ron tried to shake off the cobwebs to give her a solid answer. "Have you ever been around something or someone where you knew deep, deep, deep down there was nothing good in them? As in not one drop of kindness?"

"My sisters?" She joked

Ron rolled his eyes. "Basically this thing was like the antithesis of everything good. When it enveloped me I couldn't breathe and it felt like I was dying in my actual body. It was like a void where good things fall in and don't come back out."

"Do you think it's related to WEE?"

Ron held his head. "No….no. It's a lot worse than them. I don't know what it is and I don't know how but I know it's worse." Bonnie sat on his lap facing him and gave him a quick peck. "What are you doing?"

She lightly put her forehead to his and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Your angel has an idea. Just close your eyes, breathe, and clear your mind."

He didn't get how going back to his meditative state would help their current situation but he did as he was told. He kept his eyes closed for a few seconds and when they opened there his sensei was.

"You can drag me here Bonnie? How do you even know where here is?" Ron said while being fairly animated.

"You know I just didn't sit there like a log while you were teaching me about meditation right? I know Mr. sensei's aura already. It's huge so it's easy to follow. We're connected so it's easy to bring you."

Ron facepalmed. "Please never call him Mr. Sensei again."

Sensei chuckled and placed a hand on Ron's shoulder. "It is fine Stoppable-san, she is simply showing american style respect. What brings you all to see me?"

Ron tensed slightly. "I felt something while I was meditating and was hoping you you help me figure out what it was."

"Oh?" It sounded simple, but Bonnie and Ron noticed his tone implied he had some idea of what they were speaking of, yet didn't want to say it yet. "Tell me of your issue Stoppable-San."

"When I was meditating in the void I saw this….thing. This scarlet red aura. It approached me and then swallowed me. It took all of my strength to pull out of it and break meditation. When it had me in it's grasp I was dying, I could feel it. It was like I was suffocating. I don't think it was an accident either. That thing was evil. Not comical laugh super villain evil, pure evil. It was like a void where all good things go to die. Sorry if I'm not making sense." Oddly, after Ron was done rambling sensei actally hugged him. A few seconds later he let him go.

"I am sorry Stoppable-san."

"Why are you apologizing? That obviously wasn't you. I know what your energy feels like."

"You are correct, it was not, but I should have warned you of it's presence. I thought the prophecy would be further off."

"Uh, are you saying that's the thing I have to defeat to save the world?"

Sensei shook his head with a smirk. "No Stoppable-san. You are the chosen one, there are multiple prophecies about events that will occur within your life. This is one of the first. It is an ancient primordial evil called Yono that you must defeat."

Bonnie waved her hands in the air. "Woah woah, hold up. You want my Ron to not just save the earth, but to even get that far he has to beat this thing that almost just killed him by being near him? A pure evil thing that predates modern history?"

Sensei bowed for a second. "I am sorry Rockwaller-san, there is no other way."

"Sensei, I'm not going to complain since I know I have to do this, but I will say right now I'm more concerned about just staying alive while I'm meditating."

"Once again, forgive me. I did not realise your energy had grown strong enough to garner its attention. For right now it would be safest if you meditated here. Keeping this construct up perpetually will not drain much of my energy so feel free to come at will."

"That's nice sensei but you don't think I could take this thing now? Even with the weights off?"

Sensei's voice was deadpan. As if he was only being factual. "If you challenge him now you will lose, your life will end. Many will die in the ensuing rampage. Fate will bring you a great battle when You are ready. A prophecy is not a guarantee if you fail to prepare."

"So how prepared am I now?"

"You are not close." Sensei once again deadpanned.

"Yea….I-I'll keep training then. And come up with some new ideas. Thanks for protecting us Sensei." Ron gave him a two finger salute while grasping Bonnie's hand, then they both faded back into the waking world.

Sensei broke his meditation as well but made sure to keep up the construct. No one was near the waterfall with him so he allowed himself to smile. The little white lie was what his pupil needed to hear. He was much closer than he thought he was. The weights were not static in their density as he was told at the start. With every leap in energy he made they increased as well. His energy would be something to behold once they were removed. He could only hope it was enough to prepare him for what was to come.

"So you really think Ron won't kill me?" Josh said, mostly joking. Mostly.

Kim giggled and hugged him. "She said she'd explain everything, and that she'd force him to promise to not get angry before she told him a thing. Worst comes to worst she would just block the door or hug him."

"….How does a promise or a hug stop a superhuman guy from literally uppercutting my skull one hundred feet into the sky?"

"First, you have to understand how Ron thinks. He has his own honor code. He can tell white lies even if he doesn't like it, but if you get him to give his word he can't break it. So, if she makes him promise to not get mad…."

"He has to force himself to stay calm."

Kim smirked. "Yup. Secondly, even if his anger overrode his honor code for a few minutes he would never hurt Bonnie under any circumstance. Even snatching his hands away too fast since that could hurt her fingers. It's kind of cute actually."

Josh remembered Bonnie and Ron sparring continuously. "Doesn't he knock her on her ass constantly during training with absolutely no remorse?"

"That's different, he knows no matter how strong he gets he can't always protect her from things himself. It's the same reason he's so harsh on us during training. I'm kind of glad about the weight training now, it made me feel pretty light. If I was any slower I think Chi might have ki-" Josh silenced her with a kiss.

"Don't say it. I don't want to picture a world without you. I can't picture a world without you."

Kim cocked her head. "You know it's kinda weird when you're that sweet after seeing your default personality."

"Maybe if you were less amazing you'd see it less often."

"Anything is possible for a Possible, except for that. Sorry Joshie."

"Speaking of that, have you thought of any possible solution to our issue? I'm doubting they'll be idle forever and traveling in a group for an unknown amount of time doesn't seem feasible."

Kim made her sad pouty face. "No. No I have not. I thought our training would have made us ready but I never even managed to land a good hit on the redheaded sadist. I have to block or dodge completely on reaction."

Josh tried to use logic to comfort her. "Well Kim we're not like Ron. Even if we do see gains from training it's going to be incremental and take time. Our ceiling isn't practically limitless like his."

"I wish it could be. Then we would actually have a fair shot of taking the organization down."

"Yea, well hope doesn't get things done. Those guys at my house a few weeks ago hoped they would kill me. That didn't work out.

"Their hope got them pretty damn close." Kim whispered snidely.

"Huh?" Josh pretended to not hear her clearly.

"Nothing Josh." She said with a fake smile.

Josh didn't really care much if at all when she insulted him. She was sweet overall, if some jabs at his expense made her happy it was whatever. "Did you come up with a plan B besides hope? Our ceilings aren't going to magically increase."

"Actually, I did come up with an idea." Kim grabbed his hand to signal that she wanted him to follow her. He happily obliged. He seemed confused when they were standing in her parent's room. It seemed like they were interrupting a conversation.

"Yes Kimmie cub?"

Her father thought for a second then smiled. "Oh, did you kids come to talk about practicing safe sex? I'm not a medical doctor but I understand it is a biological urge for teenagers. Almost on the level of a necessity Right Dr. Possible?"

"Correct Dr. Possible." Ann said with a kiss.

Kim covered her eyes and Josh cringed. "Mom, Dad, please stop. We're not here to talk about that. Why can't you just be normal?"

Ann pursed her lips. "You want us to pretend teenagers don't engage in coitus and refuse to educate you until it results in an unwanted teenage pregnancy?"

Kim turned and started banging her head into the wall, wondering how two smart people can be so dumb. Josh covered for her. "Kim brought me here because she said she had a mission idea. I'm guessing that means she thinks you can help."

"We're world renowned doctors Kimmie cub. Taking down supervillains and evil organizations is kind of your thing. I'm not sure how we can be of assistance."

"That's exactly why I need you." Kim became nervous, once she said it there was likely no going back. "I want you to finish what you started. I'm not made at you anymore. I want you to make Josh and I better."

Sorry for the slow updates. I'm about a thousamd words intonthe next regaining my princess chapter so that should be up soon. I had several ideas for new stories but I can't see the end to them yet.

Ive also been working a lot trying to save up for a mid-high tier pc so that also will cut into writing time. I'll try to update as much as possible. Sorry guys.
