NOTES! Hey, incase you were wondering, yes, this is a repost of my old Chapter 2. I simply wasn't satisfied with it so I decided it best to revamp it by deleting and adding new elements to the story. If you haven't read it yet, then you have nothing to worry about. If you have read it already, then my apologies, but I would reccoment rereading it just to make sense of the chapters to come. Thank you, and enjoy!

Chapter 2: Reign of the Monkeys

Kim Possible kept having reoccurring nightmares of falling twenty-five stories to her death, same as she had had the week before. She tried not to worry about it, though it was rather difficult not to. Kim eventually drew herself a calming conclusion; to avoid falling from atop a twenty-five story building one must simply steer clear of going atop a twenty-five story building.

Easy enough, right?, she thought to herself

As the 18 year old descended the stairs from her room, both of her parents shot her a nervous stares. They both seemed unsettled, no doubt about it. There was nothing but silence as KP approached the dining room where a small breakfast was prepared. There was an open news paper with a small highlighted section placed at the chair where Kim typically sat. Kim could only wonder over her parents concerns of the highlighted content. She didn't sit, but rather picked up the paper cautiously. It read;

Señor Senior, Sr., 87

MIDDLETON- Señor Senior, Sr., Middleton, died Friday May 15th, 2007 at 11:43 PM at his Private residence in rural Spain. Funeral by Invite only.

"He's really dead?" she asked, looking up to her parents as visible tears began collecting in her eyes.

Both Dr. Ps nodded at her sympathetically. Kim walked over to them, falling into a three way hug where and, as odd as it may seem, she couldn't help but weep.

Later That Day:

"Well, he was our oldest villain. I mean, you saw how sick he was." said sidekick/boyfriend, Rob Stoppable.

"Villain or not, Ron, he's dead. And I have a hunch that it wasn't from natural causes."

Ron stared at her as he would a mad woman, "You think somebody… killed a dying man? Don't mean to sound crude, but who on Earth is that impatient?"

Kim narrowed her eyes at Ron, she was good at sending messages that way.

Ron's eyes widened, "Ooooooooooh, you mean….?"

Kim nodded subtly.

Hidden Temple of the Monkey, Africa:

Within the darkness of the ancient temple a green flame sprang to life after Shego uttered an ancient spell creating a communicational link between her amd the demons of hell.

"Step forward, humble servant." called the flame in a low raspy voice.

"Servant? Whoa, wait a sec here; you start calling me 'Servant' and the deals off!" snapped Shego.

"Have you collected the artifacts already?" the flame said as its voice changed from the forced raspiness to the normal English accented tone of Monkey Fist.

"Cool your fiery fur, Monkey-Boy. There is only one artifact left and it is as good as mine.

"Impressive. You humble me with your proficiency."

"Flattery will get you no where, oh-departed-one. The plan was a success; Senior died of 'natural causes' while I inherited enough money to buy the keys of hell itself; a figure of speech by the way."

"Very well. Just see to it that my return to Earth is without delay. I have an old score to settle with you-know-who."

"You mean that side-kick? Yea, about that; just how exactly did you and your monkey minions manage to get your butts handed to you by that freckled buffoon? I mean… talk about humiliating! At first I thought you were joking, but man… you actually LOST to him? If it were me, I'd burry my head in the sand and-"

"ENOUGH!" the voice yelled. "I think we have already established the situation at hand. I bid the ado."

"Your call, chief. Just remember our deal; I bust you out of hell, you use your demonic powers to conquer the world, and I will reign as your queen." Shego replied with a sinister grin.

"Yes, and the world shall be ours and ours alone!"

"To the end of Kim Possible!" Shego yelled throwing her fist in the air.

"To the end of Ron---"

Shego stared at him awkwardly.

"…Not a word!," said Monkey Fist sensing that laughter was soon to ensue.

In a quick poof, the hell flame dispersed and Shego went about her duties.

Middleton Highschool Gym:

"Hey Bonnie!"

"What do you-"

"Hey Bonnie!"

"WHAT!?"

"Are you ready?"

"Are you serious?!"

"TO GIGGALO! I got my hands up high and my feet down low…"

Bonnie turned to Kim as Ron continued his cheer, "He's your boyfriend, need I remind you."

Kim Sighed as "Gig-allo Gig-Gig-Alloooo…" echoed throughout the gym, "Thank you Bonnie, but I don't think I need anymore reminders."

Ron finally hushed as Kim got the cheerleaders together, "Ok girls, I was thinking we should awe the away team with a new routine I've been working on! It'll require two bases and-"

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

"Hey team leader, how about you turn your cell phone off like the rest of us have too? If you ask me, girls, I think we should have a captain that follows the rules instead of breaking them."

"Cock it, Bonnie!" yelled Kim as she flipped on her Kimmunicator. "Hey Wade, What's the sitch?"

"Senior Senior Senior is-"

"I know."

"Oh... yea… well he maybe gone but his spirit is alive in well according to his credit card report."

"Shego!"

"Did you have any doubts?"

"I just ever knew she could be so… so…"

"…evil?"

"Yes, evil!"

"Face the music, Kim. Shego is definitely out to prove a point. Sources tell me that she is currently negotiating the purchase of the Golden Staff of Son Goku from China's largest natural history museum. Since taking over Senior's private residents in Spain, Shego has converted an entire wing of the manor to a museum of historical artifacts. Now she can bargain and trade with other museums, performing transactions that are completely legit."

"Who the heck is Son Goku?"

"Haven't you ever watched Dragon Ball Z?"

"I'd rather cram my head in a toaster." She said dryly.

"Duly noted; anyway, Dragon Ball Z is one of the more modern adaptations of the Chinese myth of the Monkey King or Son Goku. Son Goku was a mischievous deity that soured on a golden cloud creating mischief and trouble for both the mortals and the gods. He fought with a pole that could extend or retract to virtually any size he pleased. Legend has it that the staff is indestructible."

"Well what happened to the Monkey King? Did he just lose the staff or something?"

"Not quite; after challenging the buddha himself, the Monkey King lost and was planted beneath a great mountain made of the Buddha's palm. Some think that Son Goku was finally released after several hundred years. Others believe that the Monkey King still remains beneath that great mountain waiting for his turn to once again break free and cause chaos and destruction.

"This is real educational and all, but it's just a myth after all, right? I mean, why would Shego care about some mystical Monkey King? If you ask me, the only person I know who would ever be interested in such a thing is currently living out his sentence in the underworld" said Kim reffering to Monkey Fist

"I'm just telling you what I know, Kim. No reason to get nasty about it." Wade said.

"But this just doesn't make sense. The Carpenter's Stool, The Anubis Script, and now the Golden Staff of the Son Goku? Am I missing the pattern here?"

Kim and Wade were abruptly interrupted.

"Hey little miss Save-the-World… you were in the middle of teaching your faithful cheer-squad a new routine. Unless of course you think your little phone conversation is more important." said Bonnie with a hateful tone.

"Grr… Wade, just keep me posted. I'll call you back after practice."

An Hour Later:

"So KP, anything new on the whole Shego-shopping spree?" Ron asked.

"Wade told me about this golden staff of the legendary monkey king she apparently just bought. Who knows what she wants with it. Whatever the case, she's back to being broke. All the money she inherited from the Seniors is almost gone."

The mentioning of the word 'Monkey' send chills down Ron's spine, "Money changes a person..."

"Well unlike some people," Kim said glaring at Ron, "Shego isn't just dumping her money on senseless Bling."

"Hey, you leave The Ron's bling-bling out of this! And if dropping a fortune on a staff of gold isn't 'dumping money on senseless bling', then tell me what is!"

"Point taken. But still… something just isn't right with this. Aside from the obvious; what is Shego doing? As long as I've known her she's been a sidekick but now that Drakken's in jail and Senior is dead, who is she working for?"

"You said she's after a legendary monkey staff?" Ron replied.

"Yea, the Staff of Son Goku or something like that. Why?"

Ron looked down at his pocket pal, "I think it's time that me and Rufus pay Yamanouchi a little visit."

"Fortune Cookies!" Rufus squeaked as he popped from Ron's pocket.

Hidden Temple of the Monkey, Africa:

Shego entered the sacred temple and read aloud an ancient seal inscribed on the stone wall once again creating a link between her and the hell-bound Monkey Fist. After doing so, she placed the golden staff on an alter.

"Finally, your tasks have been fulfilled. Today begins the reign of the Monkeys!"

"Ok, before you get you monologue on, we need to begin the sacrifice and get you out of hell."

"Right, good call. First you must place the Carpenter's Stool beneath the alter and set it ablaze. Jesus is the most widely received savior and deity in all the world. Once you sacrifice a possession of the god held most high by Earth's wormly meat-sacks beneath the possession of another deity, that deity will again rise to power. Once the Monkey King returns to claim his power-pole, you will sacrifice him to Anubis in exchange for me." Monkey Fist instructed.

Shego slid the Carpenter's Stool beneath the alter where Son Goku's golden staff lie and began rummaging through the Anubis Script.

"Umm…" said Shego, flipping through the pages of the Anubis Script.

"What do you mean 'umm?" 'Umm' is bad! Bad as in NOT good!"

"Correct me if I'm wrong here, but who has you by the primitive gonads?"

"You." the voice said reluctantly.

"And who has nothing to lose by walking away and leaving your furry behind to rot in fire and brimstone?"

"That would also be you..."

"K, then shut your hole! As for my 'Umm;' the page for resurrections has been ripped out of the Anubis Script."

"Ripped out? How could it have been 'ripped out?" We BOTH watched Drakken rip out only the three pages necessary for summoning Anubis for a holy exchange! There was only three!"

Shego's jaw dropped as she slapped her forehead. "Actually… there was four."

"Four?"

" Mod."

"Mod?"

"MOD! Mad Mod wasn't satisfied with only ripping out the necessary pages, he took out an extra one as a form of insurance, incase he himself ended up sacrificed. But Mod and Drakken are both in Jail which means…"

"Which means what, exactly?" Monkey Fist asked.

"Kim."

"Kim?"

"Ki-... ok, we're not starting this again! Kimmy has the missing page!"

"Shego, my future queen, I bestow upon you a final task."

Shego looked as if to challenge his strategic competence.

"Along with my resurrection, I want you to ...kill Kim Possible!"

Shego smirked, "Now that I can do! And what of her extra baggage?"

"…Leave him to me." sneered the green flame.

Shego promptly lit a match beneath the alter and watched as the wooden stool, said to have been carved by Jesus Christ himself, began to burn brightly.

Yamanouchi, Japan:

"Your return is most pleasing, young Stoppable. Is it enlightenment you seek?" asked Master Sensei.

Ron bowed at the master of the Yamanouchi Ninja Academy, "Um yeah, enlighten me on the legendary Monkey King."

Sensei took in a deep breath, savoring the sweet taste of mountain air, "What is it about him that worries you, my pupil?"

"His golden staff has been bought by one of me and Kim's greatest foes. What could this mean?"

Sensei smiled, causing his eyes to appear even more squinty, "That is the very question I pose to you, Stoppable. What could this mean for you?"

"I don't get it."

"The Buddha himself has cast Son Goku beneath the great mountain. To ensure that the Monkey King was never to be reborn onto this world, all of his mystical monkey powers were drained and placed among others."

Ron scratched his head, "You're saying that my mystical monkey-fu is the power of the Monkey King?!"

"True, but not entirely true. You see, his power has been split among three hosts. I can sense that you, however, hold the most of his ancient energy. I am afraid if he escapes the great mountain, he will once again seek to regain control of his mystical monkey power, and retrieving his staff is the first step in doing so."

"So I just get the staff back from Shego and its all gravy from there, right?" Ron said cheerfully.

"Many facades have been produced through the centuries. Know that the true staff of the Monkey King is guarded by Earth's most formidable force."

"Sheesh, plan on shedding any more rain on my parade?" Ron asked facetiously.

The entire earth shook as both Ron and Master Sensei looked through the window. The sky to the west erupted as shards of rock and ice began to hail from the sky.

"The Monkey King as risen. Son Goku is no longer caged and Earth is longer protected from his wake."

"Again with the words of encouragement." Ron said with sarcasm. "Where is the Monkey King being summoned too?"

"Over the course of his reign, many temples world wide were erected to appease him. There are temples and shrines in China, Japan, India, even in the African Jungles and South American Forests. Son Goku's beast-form is also what has sparked the myth of Bigfoot, the Yeti, the Skunk-ape and others. He could be going anywhere."

Light shimmered off of an elongated object. Sensei recognized this right away as the Lotus Blade flew through the window into the hand of Ron Stoppable. Ron lifted the sword high overhead and belted out.

"Thundercats, HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Sensei nearly fell over at such stupidity.

Ron merely giggled, "I've always wanted to do that."

Middleton:

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

"What's the sitch, Wade?"

"It's Ron."

Kim braced herself for the worse after hearing the news of the Chinese mountain mysteriously exploding, "Tell me he's alright!"

"Umm, yea. Ron's just fine. The explosion in China didn't affect Japan to much but it sure made a dent in China and some of the neighboring countries."

"It must be Son Goku." Kim said with a sure tone.

"Unfortunately, I think you're right. There is no other explanation for a mountain to uddenly combust like that. Ron forwarded me a list of potential temples where he believes Shego may be hiding out. After extensive tampering with government satellites, aerial images show recent activity in an african temple referred to by the natives as 'The Hidden Temple of the Monkey. My guess is that here is where you'll find both Shego and the Monkey King."

"Set up a ride, Wade. I'm going to Africa."

"One step ahead of you, Kim."

"And Ron?"

"Two steps ahead of you there. Ron is going to meet up with you at the temple."

"Thanks, Wade. I owe you one. "

"I hook you up with a ride; you hook me up with Monique." Wade said in a smoothly.

"A bit of a tall order, don't you think?" She rolled her eyes at the 11-year-old prodigy. "I'll see what I can do."

Hidden Temple of the Monkey, Africa

"Finally!" yelled Monkey Fist to his one-woman audience. "Finally things are starting to go my way! Soon Son Goku will arrive to retrieve his Golden Staff only to be greeted by my old friend, Anubis! Then, Shego, you will be granted an exchange for the sacrifice to which you will break me free of these hellish chains!"

"Then the world will be ours to command." She said with an evil smirk.

"Yes, and all, even Ron Stoppable will bow before me!"

Shego couldn't help but laugh. Then they heard the sound of their temple booby-traps being triggered. The disturbance put a damper in their petty celebration.

Shego's blood ran cold as she slammed her fist on the stone alter, "Kim Possible!"
