Takes place after Let's Get Shadowy and before Carl.
It was Saturday, meaning another weekend at Boxmore. Which meant father-son time, yaaaay. KO was honestly still al little uneasy about this, not long ago he found out his biological father is the thought to be dead hero Laserblast who turned out to have survive the incident and became the evil Professor Venomous. He hoped that things would go differently this weekend, where he learned that his most dangerous enemy Shadowy Figure was Venomous's alter ego much like TKO is his alter ego.
But after he and Fink worked together and free Venomous from Shadowy's control, he vowed that he would find a way to get rid of Shadowy permanently. Now KO knew that it wouldn't be a quick thing, considering that it has been around 6-11 years since Shadowy came into the world. But in the mean time, he thought he could use the weekends to establish a better relationship with his dad.
He stood outside the big metal door of Boxmore, with a duffle bag over his shoulder he reached his arm out and knocked.
"Ah, KO!" Venomous popped out of the door, with a light smile on his purple face, "How's my favorite son?"
KO rubbed his arm, even though it was nice to spend some time with the man that helped create him, he was still apprehensive on the whole incident with Shadowy Figure last week. "Um, pretty good. I guess." he nervously said.
Venomous caught on and sighed, "Look KO, I know things haven't always been the greatest between us, even after the big reveal." he kneeled down and placed a hand on his shoulder, KO gulped at the touch "But even though I am a villain and you're a hero, I'm trying to make an effort and be the father that I was too scared to be. And I can't do that if you won't let me."
KO looked up, "Really?"
"Really." Venomous nodded before he stood up and lead him inside.
"So, still working on getting rid of …. your other person?" KO wondered.
"It's not easy, but I think I'm making progress. But let's not worry about that, cause this weekend is all about family time." Venomous said as they walked down the hall, just then he got a call on his Bluetooth "Hold on, I got to take this." he told him as he pressed a button on his earpiece, "Venomous' Office, Venomous speaking...….. Really?...….. Again... hold on."
"What's wrong?" KO asked as Venomous hung up, he groaned.
"I'm needed with the Boxmore Board of Directors, I swear its always something. And on father-son weekend as well!" he facepalmed, he then felt a small hand grab his.
"Its okay, go to your little meeting. I'll just hang out with Fink till you're done." KO said.
"Are you sure?" Venomous questioned worriedly, though his son and Fink gelled together to get him back from Shadowy's control she still holds a grudge against him.
"I'll be fine, I think I'm starting to grow on her." KO said with a hopeful smile.
"Well lets hope, I'd hate for my son and minion to end up killing each other." he went in the opposite direction, "Her room is down the hall on the right."
"Thank you." KO said before gripping his bag strap and heading to his dad's minion's room. Since he's now spending time with his father, he thought he'd try and get a little closer with the mouse girl that works for him. She may still be a little foul from the Love Beam, but she did help him figure out the truth of Shadowy Figure. Even though she whined and complained during the search.
He followed Venomous' directions and found Fink sitting in front of the TV blasting at a virtual monkey, again. "Hey Fink."
She paused the game she was playing to look back, and rolled her eyes "Oh its you again." she spat before going back to her game.
KO rested the bag down before sitting down next to her, "So-" he was then grabbed by the collar as Fink sent a Hades-Fire glare into his eyes as she continued blasting the monkey soldier.
"Listen Momma's Boy, what you and boss do during your father-son weekends is none of my concern. We are NOT friends, we are NOT siblings not matter what the fan theories say, and you are just gonna sit here and be quiet so that I can complete this level I've been working on for MONTHS till boss is done with whatever meeting he has. Got it?"
KO quickly nodded, but then he turned to the game and saw the monkey get one last shot on Fink's character just as the health bar was low. She growled as she was sent back to her last check point.
