Breaking Free- chapter five- Breaking Free
Kim lay awake in agony in her new room. After her beating was over she was banished to this hole in the wall that lay under the mansion. Her bed was hard and uncomfortable, her wounds kept her from getting sleep, and she was given no food or water.
For three days Drakken kept her locked up; he didn't bother with Ron and Tara they were just two innocent high school students. His informants reported that they were of no importance; so why did Kim come to them? Drakken would ask Kim when she was weak enough to question, but then Drakken got an evil new idea.
Kim was groaning over her back; it felt like it was on fire. Something was put on the flails to make her pain longer. She hoped Ron and Tara were alright.
This was her so called "family" they abused her, beat her, and use her. She means nothing to Drakken; daughter her ass! He just needed a tool to kill any opposition or problems.
All those people she killed for that monster, but now she was considering herself the monster.
Her stomach growled loudly ready to eat itself if it were necessary. She tried to think of a way to escape, but her hunger and thirst kept her mind away from that; she realized that she couldn't escape.
Suddenly the rusty metal door opened with an eerie creak. Drakken walked in with Shego in his arms smiling as if he was the ultimate prize.
"So Kim… Possible how are we today?" he asked sharply.
Kim felt as if she was slapped in the face after he called her by her last name, but she answered, "I've been down here for three days being ignored; how do you think I feel?" she replied weakly.
Drakken smiled and said, "Well I have some good news for you I've decided to allow you to leave."
Kim first thought he was trying to be funny, but then she saw the seriousness on his face.
"Why are you letting me go?" Kim asked suspiciously.
"I have no need for you anymore, go live a normal life with a loving family who loves you," he put emphasis on the word love, but made it sound like a bad thing.
Kim slowly stood up and was escorted to the manor steps where she was abruptly thrown to the ground like a piece of garbage. She grunted and rose to her knees as Drakken and his henchmen left her outside laughing until the doors closed.
She began the tedious walk to Ron's house, she kept the address memorized; luckily Drakken hadn't seen it. She collapsed a few times, but continued on until the house came in clear view.
It was much smaller than the mansion she was used to, but it gave her a warm sensation, which made her feel safe and secure. She knocked on the door rightbefore her body gave out from exhaustion and she fell into darkness.
"Kim…Kim…Please wake up Kim."
The voice willed her to open her eyes and she found herself staring at Ron and Tara. Two adults were behind them giving her the same concerned look; she guessed they were Ron's parents because of the similar looks.
"Oh Kim you're awake!" cried Tara with joy as she moved to give Kim a big hug. She winced in pain which made Tara let go hoping she hadn't done anything wrong.
"What happened? When you didn't come I thought something bad happened to you, I guess we were right." Ron stated.
"I was punished by Drakken, the man who I once called Father," Kim said venomously.
"Was it because of us?" asked Tara.
"No, it was mine; I should have seen it years ago." Kim continued to rant about what happened to her all the while Ron, Tara, and Mr. and Mrs. Stoppable listened.
When she was finished Kim had forgotten about Ron's parents and introduced herself.
"We know all about you and our son. We always suspected that Drakken had some kind of muscle or secret weapon to do his handy work." said Mr. Stoppable.
"You said that your name was Kim Possible right?" asked Mrs. Stoppable.
"Yes?" replied a confused Kim, "Why?"
"Did you know your true parents at all?"
"No, but Drakken told me that they gave me to him as a piece of property."
"I'm afraid that everything he has told you was a lie my dear; come to the kitchen and we'll discuss this over dinner."
As everyone ate Kim listened to Mr. Stoppable's tale.
"When you were just a child Drakken came to town and attempted to corrupt it from the inside out, but he had a major obstacle; Dr. Ann and James Timothy Possible. They used their influence to keep Drakken's power weak and the people rallied around the Possibles. Then one night a terrible fire burned the Possible residence down. They found your parents, but were too late. The only thing missing was you Kim."
Mrs. Stoppable gave Kim a picture of a little girl with red hair in pony-tails, "This is you when you were three."
Kim traced the face with her finger and could tell immediately that it was her childhood self.
"How do you know all this?" she asked.
"We were very close friends with the Possibles, in fact you and Ron here used to play together."
Kim faintly remembered playing with a blonde haired boy who had the same goofy smile as Ron.
"My parents weren't mean selfish people; they were noble brave souls who tried to save Middleton," Kim restated.
Suddenly gunfire erupted outside as bullets penetrated the house. Everyone dived for cover as the firing continued.
"What's going on!" yelled Tara.
"Drakken," was all Kim could say as she stood up and ran for the back door, "Stay there; I'll deal with them myself." Kim grabbed a steak knife from the kitchen cupboard and snuck around the house to get behind the henchmen. There were only ten, but Kim would fight a hundred if it meant getting to Drakken. She crept behind one of the gunmen and striked.
She twisted his neck till she heard a crack and his limb body fell to the pavement. She then grabbed his Uzi and fired at the unsuspecting attackers, killing six more. She threw the gun at one of them, knocking him to the ground in a daze.
Kim pulled out the knife she grabbed while running straight at the terrified man. She brought the knife to his gut as she pushed it in deeper; twisting and grinding the blade. He cried out in pain, but she swiftly pulled the knife up and out as he bled out all over the ground and Kim.
The only person standing with Kim, who happened to also be a woman, fired her gun at Kim. Kim leapt up into the air as she came down on the scared girl. She instantly slashed the woman's throat as blood splattered everywhere; she tried to scream, but her vocal cords had been severed.
Finally the last gunman alive was still dazed from the throwing gun as Kim sat on his chest and brought the blade down to his neck.
"Who sent you!" she spat, she already knew, but she wanted to here it from him.
"Dr… Drakken." he replied, "Please don't kill me." he begged.
Kim hardly listened as she stuffed the knife through his neck and walked away to see Ron and Tara staring at her.
Both of them were scared, but not of the henchmen, but of her. Ron was holding Tara as he stared at Kim's face; blood splattered all over it. She was actually smiling as if it gave her a sense of euphoria. Ron only saw rage.
Tara noticed that some of the gunmen were people from school; like Bonnie with a long gash on her throat, her face filled with fear before she died. Ron could see that Kim wanted revenge against Drakken; and he wanted to help her.
"Drakken will send more soon so we need to attack him now and end this."
Ron and Tara nodded slowly, "We're coming with you."
"Absolutely not, you two will be killed," claimed Mrs. Stoppable.
"Mother if we don't help then Drakken will kill us anyway; we have to go with her."
"I cannot let you two put your lives in danger; I already hurt too many people," said Kim.
"Please Kim you need us; you can't do this alone. We're a family and families don't abandon them in their hour of need."
Kim had a warm feeling when he called her family and sighed as she nodded, "Alright, but the minute anything gets too hairy I'm pulling you two out OK?"
Mr. and Mrs. Stoppable were still reluctant to let their son and his girlfriend go out with an ex-assassin to stop a murderous crime lord, but they trusted Kim and they hoped that she would keep them safe.
Kim and the others slowly made their way to Drakken's house. The massive structure was relatively empty from the outside.
"Drakken probably sent out his men to see what happened to the attack, but something still bugs me."
"What's that?" Tara asked.
"Drakken only sent ten punk teenagers after me, but he knows that I'm better than that why would he send such a feeble attempt to kill me?"
"Maybe he thought you were too tired and weak to fight or know what was going on." Ron deducted.
"Maybe I should go ask him myself."
"I want you to take this," Tara pulled off her locket and put it in Kim's hand, "This was given to me by Ron I want you to hold on to this so that you can give it back to me after this is over."
Kim's eyes began to well up with tears as she hugged both Ron and Tara tightly. This was better than anything she had ever experienced before.
"Thank you Tara, I wish I got to know you guys better."
"We'll talk later, but now we gonna kick some Drakken booty; Booya!"
Ron and Tara stood up as Kim put on the locket. They all got ready when suddenly a sharp pain caused Tara and Ron to black out. Kim had karate chopped them in the back of the neck. She picked them up and propped them against a wall where they couldn't be seen.
"Sorry guys, but I promised Mr. and Mrs. Stoppable that I wouldn't put you in danger; besides you're the only family I have now. I'll be back to live with you guys and be a normal person after this is over."
Kim gave each one a small kiss on the forehead as she turned to face the mansion. Only two guards were at the front gate and with lightning speed she quickly incapacitated them and took their automatic rifles. She also took a small Beretta just in case.
She crept up the steps of the house and had one last thought before entering, "I'm breaking free Drakken!"
After that she kicked down the door; guns blazing. This was her fight and no one would stop her. Cont…
