Everything seemed to be normal during the prom. Ron was having a great time dancing with his date. He told Tara that unfortunately his mom was working late so she couldn't make it. Thankfully that wasn't a lie. He did need some pictures of the beautiful girl he was taking to make her happy. Ron was being the perfect gentleman treating Tara to a great prom until his phone went off. Ron snuck out of the gym.

Ron answered, "Hey Mom. What's up?"

Dr. Director said, "We have a major situation with Drakken. We discovered that he stole a toy design from Nakasumi Toys and that the project he stole from Dr. Possible is about metal which can grow and heal itself based on transmitted signals. Add the fact that he purchased Bueno Nacho"

Ron continued, "He introduced toys to kids' meals and now has a toy army. How was this not caught sooner"

Dr. Director answered, "The toy design was considered inconsequential and Dr. Possible said that he could not think of a way that project could be used outside of repairing something. It took us a little while to put it together." After a brief pause she continued, "You know what you have to do."

Ron answered, "I have to go to Bueno Nacho headquarters and stop him. Is the EMP device I have sufficient to shut down the transmitter?"

Dr. Director answered, "I don't know. You may need something more powerful. Drakken doesn't know we have figured out his plan yet so we don't want to startle him and have him attack. We are not prepared for that yet. I need you to shut down the operation and keep them there until it is safe for GJ to pick them up."

Ron responded, "I got it."

Dr. Director added, "He probably has something planned for Kim Possible as well."

Ron answered, "She won't be leaving the prom based on what I have seen, but I will ask Barkin to look out for anything."

Ron went into the gym and found Barkin and said, "Lieutenant Barkin."

Barkin replied, "Stoppable. I told you to call me Mr. Barkin."

Ron continued, "I need Lieutenant Barkin. I need him to grab the weapon he has in the top left drawer of his desk."

Barkin asked, "How did you know about that?"

Ron replied, "We had similar people train us."

Barkin asked, "What do you need me to do?"

Ron calmly said, "Mom called with some bad news, and I have to leave and take care of a problem. There may be a trap here set to ensnare Kim. Keep your eyes on her and the other students to make sure they are safe and make sure they don't leave."

Barkin, "I can do that. Good luck."

Ron said, "Thanks. The hard part is telling my date I have to leave."

Ron took a deep breath and went to the table where Tara and Bonnie were sitting. Ron started, "Tara. Sorry I had to step out and take that call."

Tara asked, "Is everything okay?"

Ron took another deep breath, "Unfortunately not. My mom called and I need to take care of something right away. She said she will take over as soon as she can, but I have to leave now. Hopefully, I will be back before the last dance, and if not I promise I will make it up to you."

Tara looked dejected as the best night she has had in a long time is ending and just answered, "Okay."

Ron could only say, "Sorry." as he walked away.

Ron left the gym, but was being trailed by an angry brunette. Bonnie yelled at Ron, "What the hell do you think you are doing?"

Ron answered, "My job."

Bonnie angrily said, "Let someone else do it."

Ron replied, "It's not like I want to leave."

Bonnie interrupted, "So don't"

Ron continued, "Something very bad is in the works and the way to end this peacefully is with me finishing it tonight."

Bonnie in a fit said, "But" before Ron interrupted and said, "But nothing. If the option is to make Tara's night perfect or save people. Well I am also going to save people. Now if you don't mind the longer you delay me the longer it will take for me to get back. And if you have some time try to cheer Tara up a little before I get back."

Bonnie watched as Ron ran out of the school with a bag on his back. As Bonnie reentered the gym, she went straight to Tara. Tara saw Bonnie come in with a confused look on her face and she asked, "What did he say?"

Bonnie answered, "He said that he will be back as soon as he can and that we should have fun while we wait."

Tara asked, "Do you think he will be back before this is over?"

Bonnie replied, "I hope so."

Ron hopped on a motorcycle and took off for Bueno Nacho HQ. As he was approaching he saw the tower on top of the building and a room on the top floor that looked like it was drawing a lot of power and had a mysterious green glow. Ron started to survey the building. He noticed a way to get to the roof quickly. He made it up there while staying out of the sight of the cameras. He set up a loop for the camera facing the tower. Ron was assessing the power situation. The EMP he had would be able to kill the power, but only for a limited time. He would need to get inside and disable from the control panel. He set a remote detonation for the EMP and went in through the roof access. He quickly disposed of the guard behind the door while making minimal noise. Ron made his way towards the room that had the bright lights and green glow. He took care of the two guards outside the door as quickly and quietly as the first one. He pushed the door ajar slightly and inside he saw Shego and Drakken. Ron hit the remote switch and killed the power.

Inside the room moments before Ron hit the switch, Drakken was staring at a screen. Shego interrupted, "You really shouldn't spy on teenage girls like this. It makes you seem creepy."

Drakken responded, "I am not spying. I am watching my rival fall into my trap. She has no way of stopping my latest genius plan."

Shego replied, "I have to hand it to you Dr. D. It actually seems like it might work out."

Drakken continued, "Of course it will. Kim isn't coming to stop me and we are almost ready to strike. Besides, I am a genius." As Drakken finished the sentence, the power was killed.

Shego asked, "Did you forget to pay the power company?"

Drakken said, "No. There is no power. Go figure out what is going on."

Shego started to head out of the room with her green plasma leading the way out little did she know that there was someone waiting for her outside the door.

Ron thought, 'Perfect! Her plasma will allow me to see her, but I will be in the dark. This will be over quickly.' As Shego exited the room and right as the door closed, she was struck down. Ron, knowing he had about a minute before the power came back on, went into the villain's den. Ron snuck up on Drakken and tied him to his chair. Drakken yelled, "Shego. Help." Drakken's face looked concerned when he heard nothing. Drakken turned to the person who was now taking apart his mainframe, and asked, "What did you do to Shego?"

The unknown assailant replied, "She is unconscious, but will be fine." Ron had made sure Shego was restrained before he entered.

Drakken suddenly realized what the man was removing, "Don't do that." as the unknown person was removing wires.

Ron replied, "I can't leave this operational when the power returns."

Drakken said, "Kim Possible was at her prom. How did I fail?"

He was suddenly pushed away from the control panel. Drakken yelled, "What was that for?"

Ron replied, "This." A small explosion took out the control panel. Permanently ending Drakken's threat.

"NOOOO" was all Drakken could say as he watched his perfect plan end in failure.

As the power came back on, Ron called in reinforcements and waited for their arrival. Ron heard stirring in the hallway and before he could go investigate a bolt of plasma took down the door. Drakken saw this and said, "Shego take care of this disturbance."

Shego replied, "With pleasure"

Shego lit up her green plasma and threw it at the unwelcome visitor. Ron easily dogged all her plasma throws and decided to taunt her by yawning. Shego blurted out, "You think you are funny."

Ron answered, "Nope, just bored."

Shego replied, "We will see how bored you are when I knock you out."

Shego charged at Ron and threw a punch. Ron caught her plasma covered green hand using his mystical monkey power to not feel the burn. Shego then tried to kick him. Ron easily blocked it. Ron then used the arm he had control over and put Shego into a sleeper hold. After a short struggle, Shego was unconscious again. He restrained Shego again this time with something a bit stronger. Ron heard the sirens of Global Justice and made his leave. Ron left the building, went to his motorcycle and drove a few blocks away where his mom was waiting.

Ron looked at her and asked, "Your team able to finish this now?"

Dr. Director assured him, "We have both Shego and Drakken in custody. Go enjoy what's left of your prom."

Ron said, "Thanks." He then tossed her a memory stick, "Here is a copy of his plans. I destroyed the control panel."

Dr. Director replied, "Thanks. I am proud of you. Now go. You owe a girl a dance."

Ron raced back to the school. He arrived with some time left in the prom. He put his mission bag away and made his way to the gym. As he entered he was greeted by Barkin, "Stoppable I take it the threat has been neutralized."

Ron replied, "Yes." and asked, "How is everything here?"

Barkin went on, "It looked like Kim's date dropped dead, but he wasn't human."

Ron asked, "How is she holding up?"

Barkin said, "Monique and Tara are trying to help her feel better, but you may want to try and help. You are the only other person here that has battled evil like here you may be able to get through to her."

Ron said, "I will see what I can do."

Ron went to the table where the three girls were. The first one to notice him was Tara who greeted him with a hug. She then said, "I am glad you were able to make it back."

Ron said, "Me too." He asked, "What's going on here?"

Kim blurted out, "Apparently my date was a synthodrone sent by Drakken to keep me busy while he tried to take over the world."

Ron asked, "Did he?"

Kim replied, "No. Wade told me Global Justice stopped him."

Ron asked, "Would you like to dance?"

Kim snapped back, "What is this some pity dance?"

Ron said, "No. I just think every girl deserves to dance during her prom as long as Tara is okay with it."

Tara practically pushing them to the dance floor said, "It's fine with me." Tara then looked at Monique and said, "Hopefully Ron can make her feel better."

Ron and Kim were swaying to the music and Ron looked at her and asked, "So why are you so disappointed in yourself?"

Kim was surprised with the question asked, "Why do you think I am disappointed?"

Ron answered, "You just seem like you don't understand how you failed." Ron knew this because he had just witnessed it with Drakken although Kim was hiding it better.

Kim said, "Because I did fail."

Ron continued, "The world didn't fall apart. Besides, how do you know that you being here didn't make it easier for Global Justice to infiltrate and stop Drakken. Maybe Drakken was so obsessed with you being a threat that he won't consider the possibility of anyone else stopping him and that was his downfall." Ron didn't have to make up this part maybe that made it easier to sell.

Kim perked up a little and looked at Ron, "Wade did say that when he spoke with GJ that he heard Drakken screaming in the background about how he couldn't believe he failed if he kept Kim Possible away."

Ron and Kim were looking into each other's eyes before Ron said, "See you played an important role even if it wasn't the role you wanted." Kim seemed to be okay with this notion. She was a part of the world saving even if she was tricked into a role she didn't want and hoped to never play again. Ron noticed this and said, "So should we dance like we enjoy it now." Kim smiled back at Ron and they started to enjoy dancing together. After the song ended, Ron and Kim returned to Tara and Monique and they were smiling. Kim went to Tara, "Thanks for letting me borrow your date."

Monique looked at Ron and said, "Nice work."

Ron replied, "Sometimes all people need is a good dance."

As Ron finished saying that, Bonnie came over and asked Tara, "Could I borrow your date for a dance. I could use some cheering up after Brick left me."

Tara said, "Sure, but I get the rest of them."

Ron and Bonnie hit the dance floor and told Bonnie, "Sorry and thank you"

Bonnie asked,"For what?"

Ron replied "Sorry for Brick leaving and thanks for looking after Tara."

Bonnie said, "Don't worry about it. Brick and I were drifting apart anyway. And, I will always look after Tara." then Bonnie confessed, "I actually want to check in on you and see how you were doing."

Ron replied, "I am alright. It wasn't too bad of a mission. There was a bit more violence than I like"

Bonnie interrupted, "Are you hurt?"

Ron said, "No. I just had to knock some people out in order to make sure everyone else was safe."

Bonnie was relieved, "That good."

Ron followed up with, "Thanks for looking out for me. Don't worry I won't tell anyone else how nice you are." Bonnie smiled at Ron's comment and they had a nice dance.

Ron spent the rest of the prom dancing with Tara. Tara was amazed at how Ron was able to cheer up Kim, Bonnie, and of course her. After the last dance, Ron walked her home.
