Part III…

Night…

A dark and dank street in a slimy, sleazy corner of Middleton…Where only the lowest of the low hobnob…Or do business…

Yep…Just about the kind of place I'd expect to be taken on our third day back together…Shego frowned at the trash-strewn street.

"What a mess…" Drakken, echoing aloud her thought. "I mean we may all be of the criminal persuasion here but nothing says we can't keep the streets clean. Boys?" he pointed. Several of their accompanying henchthugs setting to work picking up trash.

"Hey…" an old man sleeping by trash bag grabbed at his bag being taken.

"Oh…Sorry…Boys, give the gentleman back his heap of personal items. Really sorry." Drakken noted.

Shego rolling eyes… "So how much longer are we gonna…" Screeching sound as a rather nondescript, battered van turned the corner.

"Till now…" Drakken beamed.

"Hey, Doc…" the happy, oily voice of Jack Hench from the open rear doors of the van. "If it isn't my favorite customer...Hey, how was prison this time?"

"Oh, not so bad, Jack. How've you been?"

"Good, good…Some slowdown in the trade due to that lil' minx of a superhero, the Possible girl…But keeping together."

"Are we gonna spend the whole night out here?" Shego glared.

I mean, there's a nice moon…And the park's just a mile away. Besides, this isn't a good neighborhood.

"Looks like someone needs another attitude adjustment, eh doc…" Hench chuckled.

Hmmn…He quieted at Shego's vicious glare…And firing up of plasma.

"Shego…" Drakken put up a hand.

"Sorry, kiddo. No offense intended." Hench noted, hastily. "So Doc, the printouts and blueprints of that highly classified and banned research leading to that amazing device, known as the Attitudinator…" he presented the sheaf of plans with a flourish.

"Jack, you always come through…Thanks." Drakken beamed.

"Er…Shego…Pay the man."

Grrr…

"Now, the park…Or I call my bank and stop the check…" she noted as a beaming Hench waved and closed doors, the van departing.

"Fine…But what exactly's in the park that you're so anxious to see?" Drakken eyed her, puzzled.

Uh… "Old enemy…I've been just waiting to catch them by the light of a full moon." she noted, hastily.

"Someone I know?"

"You might say that…" she looked away. "Come on…" she took his arm. "Boys, keep a sharp eye out at least we get out of this neighborhood, willya?" she addressed the thugs…Who seemed a bit nervous as they peered round.

"You know…You think with Kim Possible dealing with all the really big stuff the Middleton cops could at least patrol this part of town a little better." she noted to Drakken.

"It's strange…Three days and no further movement on whoever…Drakken, Monkeyfist, or whoever's part." Ron noted to Kim as they sat at the Possible kitchen table. "I have to say I'm a bit disappointed in our foe's rather slow moves. Though I suppose if it is Drakken one could be impressed by his new found patience."

"It's always possible the sequencer was stolen simply to sell for a huge profit." Wade on Kim's communicator's screen noted.

"Which might indicate that Senor Senior is involved…" Ron suggested… Rufus nodding from his pocket.

"He generally prefers evil transactions ending in cash."

"That's possible…And he is clever enough to use the monkey suit disguise." Kim nodded. "But I still have a feeling Drakken's at work here."

"I'd like to tangle with Senior again. He's the only one of your foes who's ever polite to me." Ron noted.

"He does have good manners." Kim nodded. " A pity Junior isn't quite up to acquiring them from him."

"He wasn't too bad last time we met. He did ask after your mom and dad." Ron pointed out.

"Well, in any case…" Wade cut in… "So far no word of a super sequencer appearing on any of the criminal marketing sites or discussed on the criminal message boards. Including no posted rants that so-and-so has the 'ultimate suquencer', that sort of thing."

"You know I always wonder why they can' shut those criminal sites and boards down." Ron spoke up.

Kim and Wade eyeing him…

"What?"

"Ron, that would be curtailing freedom of speech on the Internet." Kim noted. "You took civics class, not to mention History…"

"It would be wrong, man." Wade nodded.

Meanwhile, back at the lair…Such as it was…

"Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, hah-hah…Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha…Ah…" choke up, cough, cough…

"Don't over due it…You haven't been able to rant in a year." Shego noted, concern in her voice. "Some water, here." she called to a henchthug.

"Thanks…Just caught up in the moment." Drakken gulped the water down. "But Shego, it's all going so well…We have the sequencer…We have the attitudinator technology…"

And it was a beautiful moon tonight in the park…She sighed…

"Oh…Yes, sorry you didn't find that old enemy in the park tonight." He eyed her, misinterpreting her sigh.

Several of the more intelligent henchthugs repressing giggles…

Enemy, right…

"Yeah…A real shame. But it was a nice walk, wasn't it?" she asked, a bit hesistant.

"Oh, yes. Beautiful evening. But I'm just sorry, things going so nicely for me that you didn't achieve your desire tonight."

Oh…Wouldn't say that…she thought.

"Who is the fellow, anyway? Perhaps we could test Evil Kim on him?" Drakken suggested.

Uh… "Oh, no…No…It's personnal. I'll deal with the little skunk myself, one of these days." Shego, insistent.

"Say maybe we could do the park again some other night…To see if he finally gets up the courage to face me again?"

"Sure…Though things may be a little busy. We're nearing the final stages. We just need a Bioreactor to grow our clone in…A few reagents for the growth process…And a sample of Kim Possible's DNA."

"You didn't keep a sample from the last clonefest?"

"Actually I did but they all got mixed up in our running around for other plots later on…I really want to make sure we have a nice pure DNA sample this time. I do want it to be as perfect as possible you know."

"Right. So, Bioreactor…Can we order that or?..."

"We need the world's newest and most powerful…For growing mammalian cells. We'll have to acquire that in our usual way…."

"Naturally…"

"The reagents I've already ordered online in separate batches to avoid suspicion."

"And Kimmy's DNA? Which I would gather is the key ingredient?"

"Not a problem, I think…She's a teenager and always running about shedding DNA. All we'll really need is an agent to infiltrate her home life, perhaps her school…Since so many different persons show up there. You know, perhaps a new fellow student…Or, say…A teacher. You know, in fact, what would really be neat is if we had someone who'd been there before…"

"Right." Frown.

"Well, you do having teaching experience…Ms. Go."
