Chapter Three
Shego had finished her breakfast and was standing to rinse her dishes, super villains had to keep a clean living quarter. Shego no sooner stood on her feet than had Drakken.
"I'll take care of that, Shego. It has been nice talking to you." he said, taking the plate from his partner in crime's hands.
Shego, reluctantly, gave up the dish. "Uh… okay…" She watched as the smiling doctor walked in the kitchen to complete the dishes.
Shego began to walk for her room but paused before passing the kitchen's door. She had a funny feeling in her stomach which she passed off as having just eaten.
"Uh… Dr. D?" she questioned, surprised to hear the kindness in her tone.
"Yes, Shego?" the doctor called over the running water of the sink.
Shego couldn't believe that she was doing this. Something inside of her was screaming to proceed but her conscience was asking 'why?'
"Well? What is it, Shego?" the slightly impatient doctor asked.
Shego swallowed and decided to get it off of her chest quickly. "I just wanted to uh… you know, say thanks for the meal. It was really good."
Drakken dropped the plate he had been washing into the sink with a clunk. He couldn't believe the sweetness in his sidekicks voice. He smiled and turned around.
"Thank you, Shego. It was no-." he stopped when he realized that he was talking to thin air. "nothing…" The saddened man turned back around to his dish duty.
Shego walked briskly to her room. She was enraged at herself. 'I have got to stop this!' her head screamed. 'Thanking him! What's wrong with me! I bet it's that stupid article. That is the last time I take any test from a teen mag!'
Shego stormed into her living area and slammed the door, a little, too, hard. A slight crack grazed into the green wall. She didn't care. This 'kind' mood had to stop. She wasn't about to be considered 'soft' by any means of the imagination.
Flopping down, hard, onto her bed relieved some stress. She hadn't been this worked up since the last time she had fought teen heroine, Kim Possible.
Shego covered her face with her pillow which stayed in it's position for only a few seconds. Shego's anger hadn't gone down enough and the soft head-rest was shredded in a blur of green flames.
"That Drakken!" Shego growled. "Probably put something in the food!"
Deep down, Shego knew this wasn't true. However, logic sometimes takes over the heart and even the smartest of humans are driven to stupidity. Shego continued to think that she was only being nice to the blue man because of outside forces.
She didn't know what to do. She was, too, stressed to leave the room and face the doctor, and she was, too, restless to sit still.
This was one of those many occasions where the woman was more dangerous than a nuclear weapon. She decided to meditate. This technique had been taught to her by her brothers. Whenever she had gotten angry and almost mortally harmed them, she used meditation to relax. The four of them are still alive today, though they are not working with their sister anymore.
Shego sat 'Indian style' and began to breath deeply, clear her mind of thought, and imagine a peaceful place. This worked better than could be imagined. Within a few minutes of repeating the steps, Shego had calmed down to an almost normal state.
Shego relaxed enough to discuss the matter of liking Drakken as a friend without harming herself or potentially harming others.
The green woman stood and paced the room, conversing to no one. She found that by talking about her problems out loud, she understood the solutions more clearly.
"Okay, I've known Drakken for a good part of my life. He's been good to me, given me a home, food has never been a question, he practically took me off the streets when my brothers threw me out."
Her mind wandered, conflicting the nice things about the man, and the not so nice.
"Then again, he's rude, he can't put a plan together without my help, and he is like two decades older than I am!"
The argument went on for a considerably long while in Shego's mind and through her words.
"Besides, I'm evil. I don't have time for lo… lo…" she couldn't bring herself to say the next word.
Shego had never really been in love. Sure, back in her high school days, dating was key to survival. But now, she wasn't into guys. It just wasn't her thing. To maintain her reputation with other villains, she had to keep from all things that might even hint her as weak. That included romance.
Drakken sat at his desk now, carefully calibrating the mechanisms of his plan. He did not want to risk a screw up with something this big.
Shego silently crept down the hall to the room that Drakken was located in. She could tell he was working on a big plan because of his usual mumbling to himself. She found herself smiling, which she quickly wiped away, at this memorable feature.
She silently walked behind the doctor and tapped him on the shoulder.
"AHH!" screamed the blue man, who had paled. He clattered to the floor and looked up to his attacker. "Shego!"
Shego laughed at the discomfort of the evil genius. "Gotcha!" she said through fits of giggling.
The doctor grumbled and sat back onto his chair. "Ha, ha. Very funny. What is it you want?"
Shego was about to ask the question she had come up with through her debate, however, refrained from the process.
"Nothing." she smirked. "Just wanted to do that!"
Drakken rolled his eyes. "Yes, I already agreed that was hysterical."
Shego turned on her heals and began to walk away, only to stop an inch from the hallway. She was reconsidering asking her question. She did want to know what the doctor felt for her. Not that she felt anything for him, just as a bit of added knowledge.
"Um, Dr. D?" she asked, the kindness creeping back into her tone.
"I'm not turning around, Shego. You probably are going to frighten me again." responded the doctor, jokingly.
"No, no, I just wanted to know if you would… uh, like to play a game with me?"
Drakken set his supplies down and looked to the woman who was staring at the floor with her hands behind her back.
He pondered the thought. "Are you feeling alright, Shego?"
Shego responded inaudibly with a nod. The doctor was intrigued by the actions of the woman. Shego was surprised at herself as well.
"I guess that would be okay." the doctor finally concluded. "What did you have in mind?"
Shego brightened and rushed down the hall. She grabbed a box with a board game inside and hurried back to where the doctor was standing.
"This one!" she smiled, holding the game of Scrabble in her hands.
