"Kids behave while you're at… please do this for me ok?" Kim asked their twins Harry and Anne II (Ron's crazy idea…it stuck.) as she rummaged through a foot locker in the attic.
"Yes Ma'am." They said as they watched their Mom sort items.
Kim found an old pair of her cargos. 'Hmmm. I wonder if I still fit these…!' her curiosity was piqued… she'd found something in one of the pockets.
She pulled it out.
It was the letter that Smith had given to her years ago before his death!
She closed the chest, sat on it, opened the letter and began to read.
Dear Kim,
By the time you read this I may have passed…
On to business.
I thought long and hard before I wrote this about who I could trust when I pass.
When Kennedy handed CURE to me I didn't think I was qualified to run it either.
He'd told me it required a person of vision and understanding to make sure we didn't stray.
As
I grew into my responsibility… I realized that we were saving more
than our country… We were
helping the world keep the Lights of
Freedom and Justice alive…
When
I met Ron I knew we had a Good Man in our midst (Please don't tell
him I said this)… And when
he defied me to protect who he Loved and
what he knew was Right… I knew the World would be in Good
Hands.
When
you worked hard to prove yourself… and did what was right for the
World while in our ranks… I
knew I had found my successor.
For there's something you have that I lack…
The Heart and Soul to live up to that President's and the other President's Dreams…
Creating a Better, Safer World.
I know you may hate me for the burden I've passed to you… But I know you'll always do your best.
Do that… and that will be thanks and payment enough.
Once again… I'm VERY sorry about what I did to you, and thankful you showed me a better way.
Yours,
Dr. Harold W. Smith PhD, ThD
PS: Besides… Who else has the Strength necessary to keep those two in Line?
"Whatcha readin' Mom?" Harry asked as he and his sister hugged Kim as she popped the letter back in its envelope.
"A letter from a good friend… a hero…" Kim said as a tear ran.
"A Hero Momma?" Anne II asked.
"Yes Annie. He saved a lot of people… even more than Daddy and I." she said as she hugged them both.
"Will you tell us some stories about him sometime?" Anne asked.
"Maybe. C'mon kids, Daddy's waiting downstairs and we've got a mission. Aunt Sheila and Chiun are coming with us; which is why I need you two to behave at Uncle Hego's… No showing off your powers while you're there…"
"Yes Ma'am. We Promise." They said as Kim pocketed the letter and led them downstairs.
'I…We promise to always do our best Sir.' She thought with a smile.
