Chapter 13: Powers and a Visitor:
Drive Home:
Kim and Shego were driving home from their date. They drove in silence, but neither of them minded as the silence was a comfortable one.
"I really had a great time with you tonight."
Kim gave Shego a soft smile, and Shego smiled back.
"I'm glad you enjoyed yourself, Princess."
Shego reached over, and gave Kim's hand a gentle squeeze. She kept hold of Kim's, and turned her eyes back to the road, focusing on driving. They were about twenty minutes from home when Shego's vision suddenly began to blur. She let go of Kim's hand and rubbed her eyes, in hopes that it would help her regain her vision.
"Is everything alright?"
Kim noticed the way Shego was rubbing her eyes.
"I'm fine."
Shego placed both hands on the wheel.
"Shit, I can't see a thing. But, I can't let Kimmie know."
Shego prayed, that her vision would clear up soon. Kim believed that Shego was okay, until the car suddenly stopped.
"Why'd we stop?"
They were still about fifteen minutes from home, so they shouldn't have been stopping. Shego bit her bottom lip. She knew she that she should be honest with Kim, but she didn't want the redhead to worry. After having an internal debate for a few minutes, Shego decided to tell Kim what was going on. She just prayed to whatever god was listening that Kim didn't flip out.
"I, I can't see anything."
Kim was a bit taken aback by what Shego had just said.
"How long have you not been able to see for?"
Shego grinned, sheepishly.
"About five minutes."
Kim stared at Shego, flabbergasted.
"You haven't been able to see for the past five minutes, and you decided to keep driving? What the hell, you could've gotten us into an accident!"
Kim was upset. Shego should've known better.
"I know, which is why I pulled over."
Shego crossed her arms, in a huff, and turned away from Kim. Letting out a sigh, Kim reached over to put a comforting hand on Shego's shoulder. She hadn't meant to upset the pale woman. However, when she tried touch Shego, her hand was thrown back. Kim grabbed her hand, wincing in pain. When she looked back at Shego, she could see black lightning rolling off of her shoulder.
"No way, that's impossible."
Kim rubbed her eyes, and blinked a few times. She couldn't believe what she had just seen.
"You alright, Kimmie?"
Shego was looking at Kim's reflection, in the mirror.
"Huh, you can see me?"
Kim was a bit confused. Shego smirked, and turned to look at her.
"Yes, Pumpkin, I can see you. But, I don't need to use my eyes to see you. We've known each for quite some time now. I can read you like an open book."
Shego then leaned over, and gave Kim a gentle kiss on the nose. "I'm sorry for getting upset with you. You were right, I shouldn't have been driving. Can you forgive me?"
Shego looked lovely into Kim's eyes. Kim gave Shego a warm, loving smile; and Shego knew by that smile that all was forgiven. So, with both girls in good spirits, Shego started up the car and drove back to the Possible house.
Possible Residence:
Kim and Shego entered the Possible home, and were greeted by, Anne.
"Hello girls, I take it the date went well."
Anne took notice of the way the two held hands, and smiled at each other.
"It was amazing."
Kim looked at Shego, lovingly. Anne smiled at the two, glad that the date was a success.
"Well I'm glad everything went well. By the way, Shego, you got a letter. I put it upstairs, on your bed."
"A letter? Does it say who it's from?"
Shego wondered who could've sent her a letter.
"It's from someone named, Hiroshi."
Shego's eyes widened, in shock, and she raced upstairs. Kim and Anne looked at Shego's retreating form.
"I wonder what's with her."
Kim, said.
Shego held the letter from Hiroshi in her hands, wondering what he could want with her. After staring at the unopened letter for a few minutes, she finally decided to open it. Pulling the letter from its envelope, she began to read.
"Dear Shego, I know your powers are activating themselves again. I also know that you can't control them. I can help you though, I can help you control your powers. Meet me at the park, and I'll explain everything."
Shego set the letter down and stood there completely baffled. Powers, what powers? She had had them taken away, hadn't she? Shego was about to pick the letter up and have another look at it, when there was a knock on her door.
"Shego, it's Kim. May I come in?"
Shego walked over and answered the door. When Kim entered the room she immediately ask Shego if she was okay. Shego gave Kim a reassuring smile, and told her that she was just fine. Kim was glad that Shego was okay, but there was still something nagging at the back of her mind.
"Hey, Shego, who's Hiroshi?"
Shego tensed up, at Kim's question. Should she tell her who he is, or should she just keep her mouth shut? Kim saw Shego tense at her question, and felt bad for asking.
"If you don't want to tell me, it's fine."
Kim was letting Shego know that if she didn't want to talk, she didn't have to.
"Kimmie I- Ahhhh!"
Shego let out a scream as the power that Hiroshi had mentioned came out, full force.
"Shego!"
Kim screamed, watching black lightning swirl around Shego's body. The rest of the Possible clan immediately rushed up to Shego's room, when they heard the screams.
"Are you girls okay?"
Anne, asked.
"What's with all the screaming?"
James, asked.
"Woah, cool!"
Jim and Tim exclaimed, when they looked over at Shego. Anne and James looked at Shego, and asked what was going on. But, Shego was too busy screaming in pain to answer, and Kim had no idea. No one knew what to do, or how to help Shego. So, they all just stood there, frozen in horror, as the black lightning electrocuted Shego.
After about ten minutes the lightning stopped, and Shego began to fall to the ground. Kim immediately dove to catch her.
"Shego, Shego, can you hear me?"
Kim eyes were brimming with tears.
"K-K-Kimmie."
Was all Shego was able to say, before passing out. Kim pulled out her kimmunicator and dialed Wade.
"Hey, Kim, what's up?"
"I need you to scan Shego. She was electrocuted by some black lightning, and I want to make sure there's no internal damage."
Kim looked back, at Shego's fallen form.
"Okay, just lay her down, and hold the kimmunicator above her."
Kim did as she was told, and a few moments later an orange beam shot out of the kimmunicator, and ran up and down the length of Shego's body. Wade typed some things on his computer, before speaking.
"Well, she has no internal damage, but it looks like she has electricity running through her bloodstream."
The Possibles were all stunned. How could she have electricity in her blood?
"Wade, could this electricity having something to do with the helm of awe symbol on her back?"
"Let me check. Well, the symbol is suppose to represent protection, but there's no more information after that."
Kim could feel her heart break. Shego had some sort of black lightning attacking her, and there was nothing she could do about it.
"Okay thanks, Wade."
Kim was holding back tears.
"You're welcome, Kim. Sorry I couldn't do more."
Wade then cut the connection.
Kim picked Shego up, and held her close. She was about to say something to her, when a voice that nobody recognized spoke out.
"My, my, that little runt still hasn't learned to control her powers yet? Tsk, what a shame."
Kim, and the rest of the Possibles looked towards the window, and saw a woman standing there. All of them were wondering how the woman got in, Shego's window was locked.
"Who are you?"
James stood in front of his wife, and sons, in an attempt to protect them from the mystery woman.
"I'm Chiharu, and I've come for Shego."
Upon hearing this Kim stood up, and tightened her hold on Shego.
"She's not going anywhere with you. And how did you even know where to find her?"
Kim glared at the older woman.
"Simple, I followed the two of you home, from the park. Now, had her over."
Chiharu lunged, at Shego. But, before she could even get close, a bolt a black lightning shot out of Shego, and hit her square in the chest. Chiharu got up, and tried to make another grab at Shego, but the black lightning stopped her, once again.
"So, I see her powers are somehow protecting her. Well, no matter, I'll find a way to get her. And when I do, no one will be able to stop me."
Chiharu then vanished, right before everyone's very eyes.
The Possibles all breathed a sigh of relief, glad that the strange woman was gone. However, Kim stared at the spot where Chiharu once stood, and wonder a few things. One was where the woman had come from, and why she wants Shego so badly? And, who was, Hiroshi, and why did they send Shego a letter? But, little did anyone know, Hiroshi and Chiharu were working closely together, and they were devising a plan to get a hold of Shego, one way or another.
End of chapter 13:
A/N: Uh-oh, someone's after Shego. Well good thing Kim's there to keep her safe, but how do you protect someone from people that can just appear out of thin air? And what of Shego's new powers, will she learn how to control them? You'll find out later. So until next time, this is PokémonSoulMaster93 signing out.
