Chapter 15: Training:
Possible Residence:
Kim and Shego were snuggled up on the couch together, drinking hot cocoa. The two had spent the afternoon building snowmen, and were now trying to get warm. Anne stood in the doorway of the kitchen, watching the two. She watched how the two seemed to be able to communicate with each other without words. After watching the two for a moment, Anne left to go start dinner. Kim set her mug down on the coffee table, and snuggled closer to Shego. As she sighed in contentment, Shego smiled blissfully, glad to be in Kim's arms.
"Hey, Shego?"
"Hmm?"
"I was wondering, about your powers; how come you never learned how to control them?"
Shego thought about it for a moment. Why hadn't she learned how to use them?
"I'm not sure. I guess it's because the power is dormant until it is close to Christmas. And I suppose it doesn't activate unless I'm upset, or if a threat is around; say Chiharu and Hiroshi."
Shego finished the rest of her cocoa, and set her mug down, next to Kim's.
"That makes sense, but there must be some way you can control it. I mean you have to learn at some point, don't you?"
"I suppose so. But, I don't even know where to begin. After all, it's not like when I got my glow. When I got my glow I learned how to use it cause I was able to activate it everyday; plus I had my brothers to help me out. With this other power, I'm the only one that has it."
Kim thought Shego's words over for a minute. Suddenly, an idea hit her.
"Well we could always talk to Wade. I mean he is a super genius, after all. If anybody's gonna be able to help you with your powers it's him."
Shego thought about it for a moment. It would be great to learn how to control her powers, but she had her doubts about Wade.
"I'm all for learning how to use my powers, but how do I know nerdlinger isn't gonna wanna use them for some weird science experiment?"
Kim gave Shego's hand a light squeeze, and looked her right in the eyes.
"Shego, I promise you, Wade would never use your powers for his own selfish gain."
Shego looked into Kim's eyes, and saw the sincerity in them.
"Okay, Princess, I'll give nerdlinger a shot. But, if he does try anything, I'll be him to a pulp."
Shego the gave a mischievous grin. Kim just shook her head, and laughed, slightly; some things never change.
The next day, Kim called Wade to see if he could figure out a way to help Shego control her powers.
"So what do you think? Think you can help her control her powers?"
"Well, to tell you the truth, I'm really not sure how to help. I mean since her powers aren't from a source that can be studied by scientist it'll be hard to figure out. I would say that Shego's best bet for controlling her powers would be to trigger them, and then have her work on trying to control them."
"Okay thanks, Wade."
"You're welcome, hope everything works out."
Wade then disconnected the call. After the call ended, the girls sat in silence; letting Wade's words roll over in their minds.
"You know, nerdlinger's idea doesn't sound all that bad."
Kim thought about Wade's idea for a moment. While it was really the only option they had, it was still quite a dangerous one.
"I dunno, doesn't the idea seem a bit, dangerous?"
"I laugh in the face of danger. Ha, ha, ha, ha."
Kim gave Shego a look.
"Oh, look who's quoting Disney movies now."
Shego stuck her tongue out, at Kim.
"Hey, The Lion King happens to be an excellent movie."
"You're special, now come on. I know somewhere we can go to work on your powers."
Kim stood up, and headed for the front door. Shego followed closely behind.
In a Remote Location:
"Here we are."
Kim stopped the car, and got out. Shego followed suit, and looked around at where they were. They were in a large clearing, with nothing around, but trees.
"Why'd you bring us all the way out here?"
"Because there aren't any people that live here. So therefore, you won't have to worry about hurting anyone."
Kim then threw a pinecone, at the back of Shego's head. Shego rubbed the back of her head, and turned to face Kim.
"What'd you do that for?"
Shego wondered what had gotten into, Kim. The redhead didn't say anything, and just threw another pinecone. Shego managed to dodge it by ducking, but when she stood back up she saw more pinecones coming her way. Shego was really confused. Why on earth was Kim throwing pinecones at her?
"Princess, why are you throwing pinecones at me?"
Once again, Kim didn't speak, and just kept throwing pinecones. Kim continued to throw pinecones at Shego for about ten minutes; and by that time Shego was beginning to get irritated.
"Okay, Kimmie, enough with the pinecones already."
Kim continued her actions.
"Seriously, Pumpkin, cut it out."
Shego's tone was slightly harsher that time, but Kim still didn't let up.
"Come on, Princess, I mean it, cut it out."
Still, no luck. Kim didn't stop, and Shego just grew more irritated.
"Grrr, Kim, I'm not messing around with you. Stop throwing the damn pinecones!"
Shego was angry by this point. Kim stood there, holding the last pinecone in her hand. She looked like she was done throwing them, and Shego let out a sigh of relief. She was about to say something, until she was cut off by a pinecone to the face. And that, was the straw that broke the camel's back.
"Enough!"
Shego exploded into a fury of black lightning.
"Good, your powers have been activated. Now, try to control them."
Shego closed her eyes, and focused on her powers. She tried to get the lightning to calm down, but she was having trouble. Still, she kept at it.
"You're doing great, keep it up."
Kim was doing her best to encourage Shego. Finally, after what seemed like forever, Shego was able to get the black lightning to swirl slowly around her body.
"Alright, Shego, you did well. I think you should stop for now though. We'll do more tomorrow."
Shego opened her eyes, and looked at Kim. The redhead gasped, in surprise, and took a step back. Shego's eyes were glowing, white.
"Shego, is everything alright?"
Kim took another step back.
"I told you to stop throwing the pinecones, but you didn't listen. And now, you have to pay."
Shego's voice was eerily calm. As she began to move her lightning closer to Kim, the redhead started to panic. Kim had no idea what to do.
"Oh man, angering Shego to activate her powers was so not a good idea."
Shego's lightning was getting closer, and Kim was beginning to sweat.
"Shego, please don't hurt me. I'm sorry for throwing pinecones at you. I was just trying to help. Please, please don't hurt me."
Kim pleaded, to no avail. Kim tried her best to get through to Shego, but her apologies just seemed to be going in one ear, and out the other. The black lightning was poised above Kim, ready to strike.
Kim tried one last time to get through to Shego, but her words just fell on deaf ears. Just as the black lightning was about to strike her, Kim moved out of the way. There was now a hole where she had been standing, and another bolt of lightning coming right at her. Kim quickly evaded that one as well, and the one after that. As she was running and jumping about, doing her best to avoid the black lightning she thought about how she was going to get Shego to stop. Just then, an idea came to mind. It was dangerous, and definitely crazy, but it just might work. Kim dodged another bolt, and then did a front handspring, landing in front of Shego. The black lightning was now hitting Kim's skin, and as she stood there, gritting her teeth in pain, she looked into Shego's eyes. Kim knew that Shego was still in there somewhere. So, braving the lightning, she wrapped her arms around Shego and pulled her into a hug. As she hugged her the lightning intensified. Kim let out a gasp of pain, but didn't loosen her grip on Shego. As Kim stood there, hugging Shego, she thought about what they had been through together. She also thought about her feelings for the pale skinned woman. Even though the two had been enemies in the past, and had only started dating not too long ago, Kim knew in her heart how she truly felt about Shego. So, embracing her just a little bit tighter, Kim leaned in, and whispered something into Shego's ear.
"I love you, Ciel."
That did it. Once Kim spoke those words, the black lightning disappeared, and Shego's eyes went back to normal. Kim stepped back, and looked into Shego's eyes.
"You, you love?"
Shego was completely stunned by what Kim had just said. Kim stepped forward, and cupped Shego's cheek, gazing deeply into her eyes.
"Ciel, I love you more than words could ever express."
Kim leaned in, and captured Shego's lips in a kiss. When the kiss finally ended, Kim wrapped her arms around Shego, again. Shego hugged Kim back, enjoying the feeling of Kim being in her arms. And, while she didn't say anything, Kim could feel how Shego felt for her, just through her hug alone.
End of chapter 15:
A/N: I had a bit of writer's block while writing this chapter, which is why I wasn't quick to update. Also, I plan to have this story finished by Christmas, but we'll see how that goes. So until next time, this is PokémonSoulMaster93 signing out.
