"You're BOTH fools… DIE!" Zemo hissed as he threw a barrage of force bolts at them.

The Avenger and The Alchemist split and attacked Zemo from both sides.

"WHAM!" The Avenger hit Zemo with a varma ati Leopard Fist to the sternum and let it travel to his right shoulder.

"uunngh! No!" Zemo grunted as he buckled.

"BOOM!" The Alchemist slammed her right knee into the base of Zemo's spine, wrapped her arms around his head and pulled, "CRACK!" thus separating his vertebrae.

"AGGH!" he cried. "AWAY FROM ME!" Zemo blasted them away from his person with a wave of force.

'This isn't working… What now?' Ron sent.

'We've got to get that cube away from him…' Anne sent to Ron as they threw up a heavy shield.

'Helmut said the Cube's alive, got any ideas?' Ron asked.

'Yeah Hon. You'll have to take the flak though… Are you ok with it?' she asked.

'Yeah. Just tell me somethin' willya. Why is it you and Kim use me as the distraction?' he quipped.

'It's your cute butt, Hon.' She said as she readied herself. 'NOW!'

The Avenger launched his attack at Zemo while The Alchemist: SLID :under spacetime and entered the Cube… to be confronted by an entity composed of twisted energies.

'!' Anne thought.

'So You've Finally Come.' The entity said.

'Yes. I'll free you… if you promise to leave.' The Alchemist said. (Watch it girl…)

'Agreed. The Key To My Freedom Is The Flaw That Allows One To… Extract My Power From This Prison. Widen That And I'll Leave.' It said.

'Done.' The Alchemist flexed her aura until Durga's ghostly outline could be seen, reached for the Flaw and: widened : it.

Meanwhile…

The Avenger was taking a pounding and giving his due.

'HOW THE HELL'S HE DOING THIS? CAVE ALREADY! Hmmm!' The Avenger jumped back, warped space subtly around himself and 'dropped' his shields. 'C'mon… go for it… hopefully this'll shunt it away.'

Zemo unleashed a bolt of fury at The Avenger…

As it reached him…

It blasted 'through' and knocked him down.

"I have you now!" Zemo gloated as he stood over The Avenger and lowered his shields. "When I'm done with… ACK!" "SPLUTCH!' Zemo never got to finish because the Avenger had slammed an Adamantium tipped explosive Pencil into his groin, causing him to drop the Cube!

The Avenger snagged the Cube and Kicked Zemo away from him. "BLAM!"

"That's for KP, asshole. Rot In Hell." He said as he dropped the Cube and walked away from it.

The Alchemist: SLID : back. 'Be ready Hon. Get behind me… NOW!' she said as the Entity rent the Cube and escaped its prison.

"I AM KUBIK! ALL SHALL TREMBLE AND FEAR ME!" it roared.

"What happened to our agreement?" she asked as she emptied out and readied herself.

"I LIED." It said as it absorbed Zemo's corpse.

"YOU WERE TOLD TO LEAVE THIS REALM AND NEVER RETURN. SUFFER THE WRATH OF THE ALLMOTHER!" Durga said through Anne's body as Anne…

Changed.

Anne Possible had been replaced by the Goddess Durga.

Ron fell to his knees as he took in her Beauty.

Durga raised one of her arms and put her Conch to her lips…

And blew.

Kubik was rent/shattered.

She stepped forward…

Beheaded him with her trident and…

It was done.

"It is finished." She said.

And then she was gone leaving a dazed Anne Possible in her place.

"Hon, you ok?" Ron asked as he rushed forward to catch her.

"Yeah… just winded… She takes a while to get used to… (chuckle!) I'm still new to this avatar thing y'know…" she said as she lovingly gazed into his eyes while he held her trembling form, "thanks… Sorry for being stupid… can you forgive me?"

"Yeah… kinda… got some stuff here…" Ron said as he struggled with his emotions.

"Hon. Let me up." She said.

"'k." Ron helped her up and waited while she pulled herself together.

"…"

"Are you ok?" he asked.

"Yes Hon." She said.

"You're really ok? No bones broken, bruises, stuff like that?" he said.

"Honestly Ron. I'm fine." She said.

"Good. (Kick!)"

"OW!" Anne cried as she rubbed her shin, "What's THAT For?"

"THAT'S FOR LYING TO ME! You KNEW Zemo was responsible for Kim's death and didn't tell me!" he growled.

"Ron. I'm sorry… I…" She said as she tried to hug him.

Ron walked away from her.

"…"

'Anne… I do love you… but you can't do this vendetta shit or lie to me… not while you're my partner, and not with our child's life in your hands… I'm glad you're ok… but I'm very pissed right now… I've gotta cool off…' he sent while lovingly glaring at her.

"yes sir."

"Find me." He said. 'I'll be somewhere out here… you'll just have to find me… and YES, I'm that pissed and it's a taste of your own medicine.' He sent before he went silent.

He vanished.

Anne was conflicted.

He was right to be angry with her.

She HAD lied to him and endangered their child…

And was sorry about it…

But she was angry too…

Because she'd HAD to avenge her family.

'How am I supposed to find him?' she mused. '!' 'Durga! Please help me find my Beloved…' she thought as she meditated.

Her consciousness wove through the Peoples of the World…

She relaxed…

And let her heart find him.

'!' She suddenly appeared outside Ron's room at Yamanouchi…

And was confronted by Iyori and Sensei!

"Master?" Iyori said to Sensei, "May I?"

"Yes." He said, "It's a pleasure to finally meet you Anne Possible. I am sorry for your loss. Kim was as a Daughter to me. May you find the happiness you seek." To Iyori, "When you are finished resume your training."

"Yes Sensei."

The two women sized each other up…

Anne sat in zazen and waited.

"You were wrong to treat him that way… Stoppable-san is a man worthy of respect." Iyori coolly said.

"Is it not true that a master of Ninpo, when on a mission, must do what is right by those they love as best they can?" Anne asked.

"…! Yes." Iyori replied.

"I was on such a mission… My family was murdered… I had thought the culprits were dead… I had failed in my task… to seek justice… and did not know Zemo was alive… If I am to be blamed… it is for being sloppy… You are right, I should have told him what I knew… I'm sorry." Anne said as she bowed to Iyori, "All I can hope for is that one day he'll forgive me… at least he'll be safe… Watch over him… I must go." A weeping Anne rose to leave…

'She truly loves him!' Iyori thought as she saw Anne walk down the hall.

Iyori rose to follow…

The door opened behind her…

"wait…" they heard.

Anne stopped…

And was turned into the second warmest embrace she'd ever had from her Man.

"I'm sorry too. I should have sought you out… Wade knew where you were. I have no right to be mad at you for what you were trying to do… Forgive me?" Ron asked as he lovingly gazed at Anne and wiped away her Tears, "(Sorry about your shin. I know I owe you a LOT of Ronshine for that…)"

"it's ok. (sob!) ron… I… we need you…" Anne said as she hugged him tight.

"Stoppable-san, Possible-san may you prosper." Iyori said as she bowed to them and proceeded to leave.

Anne hugged Iyori to her (in Japanese), "Thank You… For loving him SO much! You and Sensei are always honored guests in our home."

"Thank you Possible-san. It has always been our honor. I must go." And with that a shaken Iyori left.

"So." Ron said to Anne.

"So." Anne to Ron. She linked her left pinkie to his right. "This is where you learned your skills?"

"Yeah." He said. "Sensei's the Guardian of the Tradition and the Lotus Blade here… Iyori's his best student…" he said as they began to tour around the school.

"She loves you… a lot. Why didn't you…?" Anne asked.

"I was waiting for you…" Ron said as he squeezed her hand. "That's what Betty told me… and she's right."

They stopped at the Training Yard's entrance.

"Halt!" Sensei cried.

The students stopped their practice…

Ron led Anne into the yard, stood her next to Sensei…

and said…

"They're the only other family I have next to Mom and Pop… They helped me when I was 'the outsider'… and when I came here after what I did…" Ron made the Peace sign to them all which was returned.

Ron relaxed and found his center.

"So I guess it will have to do…" he said.

"Hon?" Anne asked as her Man took her left hand and fell to one knee. Suddenly Cherry Blossoms appeared and blew through the yard… causing the students to realize this was truly a holy event. 'NO! We already…'

'Time to start over Hon.' he sent.

"Anne Marie Possible… Will You Marry Me?" Ron asked as he produced a wedding band (that complemented her engagement ring) and slid it on her finger.

"Yes!" she wept. "And You DO Owe Me A LOT of Ronshine!"

"Guess I'll have to pay for that kick the rest of my life… Coolio!" he said as the clan cheered.
