Before I go into the next chapter, I would like to give a little thanks to everyone who has favorited and followed my story of 'KO's New Girlfriend'. As of right now it is the second most favorited OK KO: Let's be heroes story so far with 44 favs with 38 followers to back it up, I never imagined that this story could be that popular. I thank you all for the love and support you have given me though this, and to the ship of KO and Fink. While I like Kendy's cuteness, Fin-O has more intrigue and potential. Plus, I may have a fascination for bad girls.

So please, show you're love for the star-crossed potential love between the aspiring hero and the minion of Professor Venomous by leaving a favorite, follow, and review. And don't be scared to make a Fin-O fic yourself, I can't keep this boat running forever alone. Take chances, make mistakes, get TURBO!

Now back to the story.

Three days. Three grueling and agonizing days. That's how long KO and Fink have been stuck here, Shadowy has put them through the ringer with this training. While they were not fighting cybernetic animals, they were either shooting power fists at targets or punching trees. One key part of their training was that Shadowy made them clean out the vast amount of garbage that has been tossed into a nearby secluded highway, with small things like soda cans and hamburger wrappers along some heavy things like refrigerators and washing machines.

They were miserable yes, but the felt some progress in their physical capabilities and they were fed regularly.

Right now they were back in the dump highway doing their daily trash haul. While KO was carrying car tires on his shoulders, Fink was laying on top of a dryer and panting while drenched in sweat. "It's so hot, I can't feel my arms."

"(Pant, pant) Just... (pant, pant) hang on... (pant, pant)" he puffed out as he tossed the load into a truck before dragging himself to where his beau was laying and hopped right next to her, "I'm just sweating in these overalls, how much more trash is there?"

Fink slowly looked around them, and groaned "Not even half way done."

They both groaned as Shadowy figure looked on from the top of a tree, he was holding a small plastic bag in his left gloved hand as he saw the two panting kids. He hummed to himself as he thought he should check in on the two, something didn't seem right.

KO rung his life overall leg dry from the sweat build-up, Fink laid on her side facing away from him. "I swear if I have to pick up anymore kitchen appliances, my limbs will fall off. I had an easier time doing all the work at Boxmore alone, at least they're was air conditioning."

KO clipped his overalls back on, "I'm sure mommy, Gar, and the others are working their hardest to find us. All we can do is stay strong for both our families, and then we can probably have a celebratory make out in my room."

"You had me at make out." Fink said before hopping off, and falling on her face. "And there goes my legs." KO jumped over to her and held her.

"Is there a problem?"

GAH!

"Will you quit that?" KO exasperated as he saw Shadowy who seemingly teleported behind them. Shadowy Figure noticed the two's strained faces and difficulty standing up right.

"Let take a look at the training schedules I gave each of you." he instructed, the two pulled out separate pieces of paper from their outfits and handed them to Shadowy. The cloaked man unfolded the one KO gave him and looked it over, then he did the same to Fink's. He looked back and forth from the kids and their schedules, he then gave a little frown. KO and Fink were worried at what he was about to say, but to their surprise.

"Take the rest of the day off."

(old timey office noises)

"WHAT?!"

Shadowy squatted down till he was eye level with the young exhausted couple, "Listen kids, I made these training regiments with your individual bodies' capabilities and limits in mind. Everything I wrote down includes highly detailed activities, diets, rest periods, and sleep cycles catered to your biological needs and necessities. From the looks of you two, you guys aren't sticking to your programs."

"What are you talking about? We did everything on those papers and more, even did a little of each other's training!" Fink defended.

"Exactly! I like how you two are pushing your individual boundaries, but pushing too much can cause some serious harmful effects on your bodies. If you overexert yourselves then you won't get any stronger, you'll just have the opposite effect that you wanted."

"What do you mean? We're fine!" KO said, just then a blast of turbo power shot out of his hand and grazing his girlfriend's hair.

"I'm good." she replied.

Shadowy facepalmed, "This is what I'm talking about, you're overdoing your training and it is starting to send your turbo energy all willy nilly. Classic case of Delayed Onset Energy Disorder, or DOED for short"

"DOED, Wassat?" KO asked.

"It's when your body's energy goes all over the place, it's like a strained muscle, you'll be fine after a little rest. But this is what I am talking about, constantly training and exercise doesn't help anyone. If you two keep overexerting yourselves, then the link between your energy, mind, and body will begin to unravel. If you can't accept rests and limitations, than you're gonna have a very early retirement from heroism and villainy." he explained, " You understand?"

The two looked to each other in contempt, they both nodded in understanding of their limits. "Good, here." he said tossing down the bag, which revealed an entire buffet of gourmet foods. The two kids licked their lips at the sight of the food, both wrapping napkins around their necks from out of nowhere.

"Sweet, skipped breakfast. Wait, this isn't poisoned is it?" Fink questioned, KO leaned back a bit.

"If I wanted you dead, I would have done it by now. Enjoy." he said before he was about to disappear.

"Wait!" KO raised his hand, Shadowy sighed while Fink was feasting on the many dishes laid out in front of her. "I just need to know, who are you? How do you know so much about? About my friends, my family, my goals, even my relationship with Fink?" said mouse girl stopped slurping the noodles as she heard her name being mention and her courting of KO, "Nobody knew a thing about us until a week ago, but you seemed to knew from the start. So please, who are you? Why did you bring out TKO?"

Shadowy's eyes may be blocked by his hoodie, but his lower face read so many signes of guilt and defeat. True he knew about the boy's secret romance and much more, but the reason being shrouded in mystery. He knew that the boy would want to know everything, and the power inside of him will stop at nothing to get these answers. He sighed as he sat down in front of the kids. "KO, the world is a very dangerous place. For anyone the most difficult challenge of all, is life. And the life a person lives can effect how they end up on the scale of good vs evil, that's the unpredictability of it all." he explained, KO and Fink listened with content and intrigue. "You see I was born from a hero mother and a villain father, along with my brother. His name was Veneld, we're twins. But sometime after we were born, our parents had a very... destructive divorce."

"Oh golly." KO said.

"Yeah, and after that they each took custody of one child. Veneld lived under my dad, while mom kept me. We lived separate paths, I fought for the sake of the world and he worked in my dad's laboratory as his minion. My ma taught everything about being a hero, every tactic and strategy to counteract anything that this world puts in front of me. She even taught me how to use my superpower, that is until the accident."

"Accident?" they asked, Shadowy looked over the horizon with a thousand yard stare.

"KO, I was once a member of the top superhero team in the world. I was number one, people looked up to me."

"GASP! You were in P.O.I.N.T?!" KO gasped, Fink blinked in surprise as her jaw dropped.

"I was, but not anymore. Around 6 to 11 years ago, I led the rookie squad on an investigation. I went in alone, turns it was for an underground trading ground for glrobs. The donut shop was a front. After I went in, something bad happened. There was a massive explosion that destroyed the entire vicinity. That accident took everything away from me. My lead, my team, my powers, my girlfriend who waited for me on the outside." he lowered down the hood as he faced the kids, they gasped at what they saw. "I even lost all my facial features, and the only photograph they found for the reconstruction was from one of the lower thugs driver's license."

KO could not believe what he was hearing, everything his mom and Gar told him about the accident that strained their relationship for 6-11 years. How Laserblast was gone, why Gar left P.O.I.N.T, why they never talked to each other again till now. "So wait, does that mean?"

"I am so confused." Fink said.

"Laserblast died that day, or at least, that's what they all assumed. That accident took everything away from me! I lost my friends, my powers, but most importantly, I lost my dear sweat Silver Spark." KO gasped at the mention of his mommy's old code name.

"SHUT THE FRIDGE! Are you? Are y-you... LASERBLAST!?" KO yelled pointing an accusatory finger at the man cloaked man, Fink did a little spit take with her soda.

"Worst part is, I couldn't see my two boys grow up into the young gentlemen I dreamed of."

"Two?" KO raised an eyebrow at this, but then an crazy thought came into his head. KO's split personality TKO, who was in a full body cast in the house that was rebuilt after the who thing with Nightmare Fink, his eyes bulged out as he was thinking the same thing. "So, TKO is..."

"You're brother, that died in the womb. Now, his soul rests in your anger and negative emotions. Even when Venomous took away your powers, TKO lives inside your mind KO. He's never going away, you two are like Bruce Banner and The Hulk, you can't live without the other."

KO rubbed his temples as his mind tried to process everything this guy was saying, from him being the acclaimed deceased Laserblast to having a brother that's now his rage fill alter ego. Fink gave the confused boy a loving embrace, having her arms around him made his headache somewhat more bearable. "Is... is all this... true? Or are you just trying to mess with me again?"

"Believe me, I wish I was. But it's true." he said as he lowered his hood over his face again. "I'm sorry." he stood up and turned around, "After you're done eating, head back to the barn. Take a load off until you're better, okay." he left the two alone.

Neither KO or Fink ate much after that, when they reached the barn they couldn't sleep. KO tossed and turned under the covers while Fink stared up at the ceiling, both of them felt pretty rocked by what they just learned. Eventually they looked into each other's eyes, with looks of fear evident. Fink silently told him that no matter what, she was still there. The shared a little kiss on the lips, before snuggling up and off to a very rocky road to dreamland.

(With everyone else)

"...and that's the whole story, I never heard from him again." Venomous said gloomfully. Everyone was in shock and disbelief after that as they were all in the P.O.I.N.T. flying aircraft carrier, with Foxtail at the wheel.

"So let me get this straight, Laserblast was never really gone. But the explosion that either should have shrunk him or sent him to another dimension caused not only his powers to disappear, but also burnt his face beyond all recognition. And that he is the Shadowy Figure and the birth father of KO?" Enid questioned.

"Yep, that's basically the long and short of it." Venomous nodded.

"So that means, you're his uncle?" Rad asked, Venomous nodded at that as well.

Carol looked down with tears in her eyes, Gar held her close as she wept into his shoulder. "Oh, KO. I'm so sorry."
