What the Other Doesn't Know

Prompt: What if Shego had remained a cat? Part Two

Don't Touch my Pussy (Cat)!

After many hours of explaining to her parents, Kim finally managed to straighten the situation out. Her parents had chided her, telling her she should have just told them in the first place what the situation was, instead of keeping secrets and creating a misunderstanding.

"Do you know how long she will remain like this? Are you sure she's not just pretending, waiting to catch you off guard?" Kim's mom had suggested.

"I'm a hundred percent sure mom," Kim had affirmed, thinking back to how Shego would always curl up at the foot of Kim's bed and sleep there while Kim slept. There was no way Shego would be willing to do that if she was still of human mind. She would have been burning everything in the house down. Starting with Kim.

"Can I run tests on her? It's fascinating to see-"

"No dad," Kim shut that down quickly. There was no way she was going to let her dad take advantage of a helpless, cat?-person? Shego? It wasn't right.

"But science-"

"No." Kim shook her head ardently.

Her father looked crestfallen but he could live without this so Kim didn't feel too bad.

"Well, now that the cat's out of the bag, I think Shego will only be staying here until Wade can come up with a way to reverse this. He's already halfway done."

"That's good to hear. But in the meantime what should we feed her? Cat food?" Kim's mom asked, watching as Shego lazed in a ray of light that was coming in from the windows. It made her sleek black hair glow along with her green skin.

Kim shrugged. "I've been giving her milk so far and granola. And she seems fine with it. I don't want to risk giving her cat food since she still has a human digestive system.

"If we carried out an experiment to test what sorts of foods-"

Kim shot her dad a look before crossing her arms over her chest.

He let out a dejected sigh. "It was worth a try." His inner scientist was too curious to not attempt some sort of experimentation on this new found phenomena.

"Okay. It seems you know what you're doing with Shego. So we'll leave you to it, sweetie. If you need help with anything just ask."

"Thanks mom."

After that Kim's parents mainly left her and the Shego situation alone. Except for her dad occasionally, who she caught trying to sneak up on Shego a couple times, syringe or notepad in hand. Kim would help Shego out with this, but the woman had the issue under control. Soon Kim's dad found out that Shego's claws were really, really sharp. He had yelped on more than one occasion, as he ran for the basement to the safety of his lab, "Shego's claws are worse than a cat's," or "You really need to get her declawed Kim."

Kim would only laugh and shake her head.

However, there was someone else who had more trouble with Shego and it was Ron. Kim didn't notice it at first until he pointed it out to Kim timidly. "Kim, I think your cat is trying to kill me."

It all started when Ron first came over, giving Kim a huge hug and taking all her attention away. Shego's eyes narrowed menacingly at his figure as she slinked behind the couch, scheming.

The next day, when he too came over and took up Kim's attention, as the two of them watched TV, laughing at some stupid movies, Shego decided she had to make a move and quick, before her owner decided she liked this human boy better than her and wanted to throw Shego out. Besides, Shego still remembered how this boy had tried to convince Kim not to keep her as a pet. He was already on Shego's shit list.

So Shego had to get rid of him. When he standing outside by Kim's pool, Shego rubbed up against his ankles, tripping him up and making him fall into the water. But that fool could swim, so that plan failed. And he even got her back for it, splashing her with water as he fell in. Dripping and cold, she flipped her fringe back in place and went on to scheme some more.

Then she tried to trip him as he was going down the stairs in the house. Unfortunately Kim was there and thinking quickly she used a grappling hook to pull him up by the back of his pants. Plan two had failed and Shego retreated once more behind the couch to come up with another plan.

Her third plan involved trying to shove him into the street while she, Kim, and Ron were on a walk. Yet again, Kim saved his life with quick thinking and even quicker action. Shego's fourth plan involved her trying to catapult hot oil onto Ron when he had his back turned to the stove, rummaging in the fridge for the rest of the ingredients for the dish he was making for Kim. Shego had clambered up onto the counter tops and quietly made her way over to the frying pan where the bubbling oil was. Stomping her hand down on the handle, the oil went flying, and she watched it's trajectory with a gleam in her eyes. Only it fell short because Ron had miraculously moved to the side to chase down an egg that escaped his grip. So the fridge got a faceful of oil, the plastic sizzling.

"What the-" Ron had turned to the sound of something melting and caught the tail end of Shego escaping. He swore that cat was always bothering him- it was like she was trying to sabotage him. Frowning, he decided to tell Kim about all of his incidents involving the cat so far. But Kim had only waved and laughed off his concern. "Don't be ridiculous Ron. Why would Shego intentionally try to trip you up? She only wants some attention and affection. And as for the oil, cats are naturally curious. So she probably wanted to play with it but got scared when she made the mess."

"Kim, you're forgetting that Shego isn't a real cat. She's a human, who thinks she's a cat. There's a big difference." He spread his arms wide to emphasize this.

When Kim's opinion remained unchanged, Ron knew that he would have to show her proof. But how?

Shego had noticed Ron's and Kim's conversation and she knew she had to act fast. He was finally catching onto her and she couldn't have this. She was going to get Kim's attention back. Kim was her's and not that stupid buffoons.

So she snuck into Ron's house and bit off the wires on his bike's brakes. And not a moment too soon. The garage door opened up to reveal the boy and Shego hid behind a stack of old newspapers as she watched him take the bike and leave. She followed him out to the street, he ever oblivious to her presence. He got on the bike and Shego's grin intensified. Since Ron lived on a hill, brakes were needed right from the start. And as he straddled the bike and pushed off, he immediately went to press on the brakes, not wanting to gain too much traction going downhill. But to his shock he found they didn't work.

"What's going on?" he asked in a frightened voice as his surroundings began to blur. Rufus popped out of his front pocket and pointed for Ron to look backwards and he did. There he spotted Shego sitting in front of his house, two wires in her mouth and a Cheshire grin on her face.

She had bitten his wires off! If this wasn't proof that she was trying to kill him then he didn't know what was!

Rufus tittered something and then jumped onto the handles bars of the bike. He cracked his knuckles, rolled up some imaginary sleeves and then got to work. Ron tried to keep the bike steady, swerving around balls, dogs, and old people that for some reason decided it would be a good idea to be on the middle of the road right now. Rufus quickly tied the ends of the broken wires together and gave Ron a thumbs up. Ron hoped it would work otherwise the main road was approaching and Ron would be flattened like a pancake.

From where Shego sat she heard a huge crash, a single tire flying through the air, and spitting out the wires, she walked back home triumphantly. There had been no Kim to save Ron this time, so there was no way Ron could have survived that. Now Kim was her's.

What Shego didn't know was that the makeshift brakes had worked and the giant crash had come from a truck that had accidentally dropped its multiple orders of bikes onto the middle of the road, stray tires going everywhere. So when Ron showed up at Kim's house, fine and dandy, Shego was taken off guard.

And not only was he alive, but he also had proof. He held up his phone to Kim, Rufus having taken it and gotten a picture of Shego with the evidence in her mouth. Kim was mad. "Shego!" she cried out and Shego gulped heavily. "What are you doing? Why were you trying to kill Ron?"

Shego let out an apologetic mrrow and hung her head in show of apology. She wasn't amending her ways, just apologizing for getting caught.

Kim couldn't stay mad for long with how sad Shego looked. Her eyes were big and round and Kim just had to go and give her a hug. "It's okay. I didn't mean to yell at you so loudly."

"What!?" Ron cried out in disbelief. "She tried to kill me, your best friend since forever, and you forgive her!"

But Kim wasn't listening. "Sheesh, women and their cats," Ron muttered to Rufus who shook his head in sympathy.

As he looked on at the two girls, Shego shot him a devious look and Ron immediately paled. He had a feeling this wasn't over yet, and that the real terror had only just begun.

A/N: Back in my day (lol I sound old) you could just backpedal to stop a bike. Now you've got to use the hand brakes which I think is complete bs and so much unsafer.

This is the last chapter of the animal related stuff. The next one will be dealing with the theme of wardrobes!
