10 Hearts and Swords of Sinanju

02-13-2007
The House of Sinanju
Sinanju, North Korea
0835 hrs

Chiun tensed to leap…

-

Kim stared at the… person she used to love… The person that she'd given her heart to… only to have him crush it… The person that had attacked her Daddy out of spite and hatred. How long had he felt this way? When they had been together? Afterward? When?

Then she squeezed Ron's hand. He'd run from her… and had stopped. Ron had grown despite what had been thrown at him. He'd taken responsibility for what he'd done… what he was.

Josh had not.

Ron was right. Josh was vermin.

But Ron somehow… was part of her heart… actually they somehow had merged, Heart and Soul.

She remembered Chiun had said there was a prophecy about 'the ones that are the Hearts and Souls of Sinanju. Shiva and Shakti personified.' Could It Be?

Kim took a deep breath… Yes. Yes It Could. She was complete… no, They were. She knew every 'inch' of his soul. And he knew hers.

From now… to the past times and lives… to their future.

Avatar and Avatara.

Goddess and God.

But always

Man and Woman.

She was His, He was Hers.

She paused…

They had an 'old friend' hovering…

Waiting to help.

"?" she thought.

-

Nuihc stepped up. "I and my student challenge your students for the right to Lead The House of Sinanju. Do you acknowledge my claim?" he asked as the hall began to fill with villagers. 'Hopefully they will not realize their mistake until its too late… That fool Porter gave me what I needed and didn't realize.'

Chiun relaxed and side-glanced at Kim and Ron. They nodded.

"They accept." He told him.

"They cannot speak for themselves?" Nuihc hissed.

"We only prefer to talk to someone of Content and Merit." Ron calmly said.

Kim turned to Josh. "Rembrandt. How unoriginal. I have to admit Josh, you did me a favor by dumping me. It made things simpler when I found out Ron was alive." She coolly said. "Oh. By the way… (Dragon's Smile.) You were right. You ARE Second Best next to Ron. Thank God I Never Let You Go There."

"Whore!" Josh growled in Korean.

"Yes You Are." She growled back. "Furthermore, You're Mine!"

"Coolio! Then Nuihc's Mine." Ron answered in Korean to everyone's surprise! "What? Chiun taught me."

"Ron, Promise Me when this is over… To Tell Me everything." Kim growled.

"Heh. Right KP." he said.

"If I may continue." Nuihc said. (Right Dude.) "Where shall we fight?"

"The Place of Dead Animals." Kim said to everyone's astonishment. "What? I listened to Chiun's stories about the Village."

"Agreed." Chiun.

"Agreed. No Technology." Nuihc.

"Coolio!" Ron.

The Place Of Dead Animals
Sinanju, North Korea
0915 hrs

Ron and Kim stood their ground against their foes…

Inside a geological anomaly.

A boulder-strewn canyon that was rich with fossils from every epoch.

From T-rex to Iguanodon.

The Place of Dead Animals.

Mankey stood before Kim in his mask.

Ron stood before Nuihc in his typical black T and chinos, while Nuihc wore his black Master's robes.

Chiun stood by with Chung. "Begin."

Nuihc floated towards Ron with a snapkick…

Ron leapt back.

The ground rumbled and fissured where Nuihc landed.

'Whoa. Gonna have to stay on 'em with this guy…' Ron thought as he relaxed and took offense…

Kim cartwheeled forward and kicked Mankey in the sternum, rolled down his back and kicked the back of his head with a reverse Scorpion kick… flipped to his right and kicked his right shoulder and elbow…

Mankey reeled and rolled with the blows and threw needle shuriken at Kim…

Who skipped up a boulder and landed on the other side as Mankey rushed right into her fist…

"Ungh!" he grunted as she bashed his nose.

"That's for cheating. I'll tell you one time. Give up." She growled.

"Never." He growled.

"Have it your way." She purred as she flared up…

Mankey's eyes bugged as she let fly with a reverse punch…

His head was creased as he ducked the blow. Kim's fist hit the boulder with a resounding "bOOm!" and split it.

Josh panicked and dropped a flash bang…

Both were blinded…

One could see

Josh clipped Kim's thighs as he flailed wildly to escape…

"AH!" she cried as she 'saw' the blow, turned her legs to get clipped on their nerve ridges instead of shattered, and collapsed as her legs turned to jelly…

His vision cleared…

A fist tried to connect with her right temple…

She rolled away and sat while her legs woke up…

She… saw his intent!

He threw a flurry of punches and kicks at her while she sat.

"You're gonna have to do better." She purred as her legs woke up while she effortlessly parried and thumped each blow. "As IF!" she flipped up into Cat Stance.

Mankey knew he was in trouble.

---

Meanwhile at Yamanouchi…

The Lotus Blade awakened.

And flew towards its long lost partners…

---

Chiun gave pause. The hair rose on the back of his neck. Something was wrong…

And he was bound by Sinanju law to stand still and keep quiet 'til the contest was done…

There was only one way to survive Nuihc's trap.

The Destroyer and his Bride had to defeat him.

---

Nuihc, for the first time since he'd fought Chiun that time long ago… was breathing hard. 'It is time.' He bit on a tooth. 'Now The Fools Shall Perish!'

He decided to use the tech he'd stolen from Porter. Using the readings he'd stolen from his lab on Sinanju potentials… He'd stealthed and adjusted some equipment…

A piece of machinery was set in motion.

Clocks began a countdown.

Technologies designed for another purpose were unleashed.

Ron countered a blow meant for his heart by sliding around the blast and 'tapping' Nuihc's right armpit…

"CRACK!" Blood ran.

Ron parried a blow coming from Nuihc's left and kicked him away…

Nuihc stroked Ron's sternum and right hip… bruising his hip in the process.

"Ungh…!"

He listened to the Earth.

"!" 'Kim! Be careful…' 'Ron?' 'KP… Nuihc did something… it's a trap!' 'No Duh! Ron… something's coming… I feel it…' she thought as she chased Mankey across the blasted landscape…

Mankey dove into a fissure… and rose with a Masterson Assault Cannon!

"BuddaBuddaBuddachunk!BLAM!" Kim ran, cartwheeled, and flipped into another fissure as she tossed a rock into the bell of the cannon… causing it to explode…

A flash of light and the Lotus Blade was in her hand… it transformed into a 9' nightmare of enchanted steel called The Sword of Sinanju…

A bloodied Mankey tried to run as she whirled the Blade overhead…

And barred his escape with the Blade's spatulate tip.

Rembrandt/Mankey turned…

His eyes widened as he beheld Shakti!

The Blade whickered overhead as Kim leapt…

The tip clove him…

It was finished.

"ruuummbllle…" 'What's that?' Kim wondered.

---

Explosions fractured the Earth…

Nuihc's stealthed tectonic charges ignited pockets of gas and petroleum under the earth…

---

Two Titan's looked at each other across the spiritual landscape.

A web had been woven… one of death. They saw only one path out… and it meant the highly possible death of one of them…

A choice was made.

Battle was Join'd by One.

A rescue was made by the Other…

---

Ron and Nuihc threw blows to and fro as the ground shattered around them…

Kim morphed the Blade around her bandolier-style, ran, grabbed Chiun and Chung, and hightailed them out of there… as the World slowed… around her.

Chiun blinked and found themselves outside the burning pyre that was Sinanju…

'I did not feel her… She IS Shakti!' he thought.

"I'm sorry… Chiun." She said cheeks wet.

He looked at her. "It is fine My Daughter. Now We Must Wait."

-

The Destroyer stood over his defeated foe.

Battered, beaten, victorious.

He picked up an item and surveyed the Hell before him…

'C'mon… I can do this… One With All…' He relaxed and flowed into Shiva…

A path was seen…

He took it.

-

Meanwhile at the LZ…

"Chief… we gotta go!" a SEAL said as they watched the explosions.

"Son. You ever been left behind on a mission?" The CPO asked.

"No Sir."

"I was. Couldn't be helped." He looked at his men, the North Korean contingent, then at the blazing horizon.

"How'd you get out Sir?" The SEAL, a kid by the name of Jones asked.

"Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable… They made sure I got home." He looked at Jones. "What do ya think we oughta do?"

"Stay Sir." Jones dropped his head. "Sorry Sir."

"No Prob Kid. Point is when someone's gone there… and Been a Brother or Sis and didn't sign up… they're one of your own."

"Yes SIR!" Jones said.

"And if you believe in somethin', pray for a Miracle. They Deserve It."

Washington, DC
Dr Harold W Smith's
Office
2056 hrs

Dr Wade Load sat at a link while Harold W Smith worked himself to death…

Right now that entailed telling a Python Sub commander to hold station off the coast of North Korea…

"I'm going to tell you this one time. If you make ANY attempt to leave before they get back… I don't care what your orders say… Stay on station until they make it back or else you and your crew will be sent to a place that makes Leavenworth look like Beverly Hills. That's fine." He cut the link and looked at Wade.

"The satellite shows Kim, Chiun and Chung… Ron's still…"

"He'll make it." Smith said.

"Because he's 'The Destroyer'."

"No. Because I have Faith. And He's Just Ron Stoppable." Smith collapsed.

Wade called for a medic.

---

Ron ran through the furnace…

When flame shifted so did he…

He ducked when it leaped, rolled when it lunged…

When it licked him he took it and ran, damping the pain.

Until he collapsed.

Gentle hands pulled him to safety…

Tears shattered on brow and cheek…

"KP…?" he groaned.

"Yeah. Is He?" she asked.

Ron pulled a bloody, cloth wrapped item from his pocket. "Yeah. Part of his skull… DNA…" He passed out.

"He'll see you now." A nurse said to Team Destroyer.

They walked in…

Smith waved them over.

Kim and Ron took station on Smith's right.

He grabbed her hand. "I'm sorry."

"It's ok. No Harm Done. Rest." Kim wept. "I'm glad I got to know you Sir. We'll never forget you."

He Looked at Ron. "Great Job. I heard North Korea's opened its borders a bit… eased off oppressing its people…" he smiled.

"Ah. A Dose Of KP, A splash of Ron… that's all it took. Thanks for everything Sir. I…I'll do my best. I Promise." Ron wept…

"The House Of Sinanju will survive O Emperor." Chiun said as Smith looked at him. He smiled at his adopted family. "For She Has Commanded It." He said as he looked at Kim.

"That's Good…"

He was gone.

The World got a bit dim.

Smith gave Ron a parting Gift…

03-05-2007
The Stoppable Residence
Middleton, CO
1000 hrs

Anne, James and the Tweebs sat in the living room with a puzzled Judit and Ezra Stoppable and Rabbi Katz…

They were puzzled because Kim had said they needed to be there to witness a nescato (Great Miracle)…

"Knock, Knock!"

"Judit… go answer… Trust me you want to." Anne said.

Judit looked at Ezra, took his hand and nervously went to the door with her husband… Rabbi Katz said a prayer and watched…

They opened the door…

Judit was in shock…

So was Ezra…

'It's a ghost…' Judit thought.

"Hi Mom." Ron said, tearstruck.

"Hi Judit." Kim said while she squeezed Ron's shoulder with her left hand…

Everyone was shocked to see what glimmered on her hand…

"Ahem." Chiun said dressed in his regalia.

"Oh… Uh, heh… guys this is Chiun. Little Rabbi…" Ron smiled as he waved at the Possibles and Stoppables. "This is my family."

They shyly stepped inside… Chiun boldly did so.

"Mom, Dad… we need to talk… I've been doing some work… similar to what Dad did…" Ron said.

"That can wait Ron." Kim said before they were tackled.

Later…

"He has a Great Heart." Chiun said to Rabbi Katz as they watched the joyous reunion.

"Yes he does…" Katz looked at Chiun's robes. "Sinanju?"

"Yes." Chiun took a measure of Katz' mien. "Judges? Mossad like his father?" he nodded towards Ezra.

"Yes."

"He has worked hard to keep his heart pure. She ensures it's so. They are My Honored Son and Daughter."

"I know what you mean. Would you like to practice sometime?" Rabbi Katz said.

"It would be an honor." Chiun replied.

2 weeks later…

A news broadcast hit the airwaves…

"This just in… Ron Stoppable, former partner of Kim Possible was found residing in a VA retirement facility's medical wing… It seems that he was accidentally transferred to said facility before his execution… Another military prisoner was executed in his stead… said prisoner admitted to killing the burglar that had invaded Mr. Stoppable's home and framing him for the job…"
