I do not own Kim Possible
Thank you to EnterpriseCV-6, and ShadowCub for reviewing.
Kim was not in her usual mission clothes when she entered the Amazon. She was dressed for an archeological dig. She had tools strapped in a cross-body bag, a hat that looked sufficient for the hot sun rays, shorts with lots of pockets, and a blue shirt with a light khaki jacket.
She figured she could acquire research at the temple where Monkey Fist was supposed to be lurking. The archeological work could count toward her independent study. This was not really Kim's fight anyway.
Kim thoughts were along the lines of, " Ron has been preparing for this fight for so long, I do not want to take this fight away from him."
Kim's thoughts turned to Shego. She missed her fights with the dark-haired woman. She had been busy dealing with her new college lifestyle and dating life that she had not made frequent visits to Drakken's lair.
Kim missed the Drakken's crazy schemes and Shego's sarcastic attitude. Shego always added excitement to her life. Kim did not know where this feeling of loss came from, but she really did miss Shego. Maybe, she would get to stop them sometime soon. She hoped so, because they have been keeping on the down low recently.
Kim raised her head and sighed. Ron and Rufus were traveling a short distance behind, while a variety of emotions flickered across Kim's face.
While they walked, they saw vines hanging from trees in an unnatural manner. Each twist and turn of the road was something shrouded with vegetation.
Kim really loved the Amazon though, the land was big and amassed with beauty, and there were birds singing with vigor as the sun passed along the horizon.
Ron almost got bit by a snake as it hissed and slithered down the trunk of a tree.
Some sounds forewarned an eerie presence as creatures of the shadows left distressing calls. Each breeze struggled against the enormous trees. The sun beat down steadily, a piercing gaze like through a magnifying glass. The trees and the animals of the Amazon made everything hard to see.
Kim was trying hard to follow Wade's coordinates. Kim was getting tired of the insects swarming around her, and her mood was starting to fall.
Kim decided to bring up something to take her mind off things. She spoke to Ron.
"Ron, how's Yori been?" Kim asked
"She's been well, KP. Why do you ask?" Ron gazed at her curiously.
"No, reason. I'm just checking up on a friend. That's all!" She hurried the last part, struggling to keep her composure.
The truth was Kim was really curious, as to how Ron knew Yori was the one for him. Kim was confused about the concept of true love, but did not want to ask Ron directly.
"OK...KP," Ron said, at the rapid change of subject.
An awkward pause stretched between them.
"So, how's classes been, KP?" Ron asked, trying to continue the conversation.
Kim replied enthusiastically. "It's been good. I've met a few nice people, including Jasmine my roommate. The school is pretty study-oriented, so a lot of people are focused solely on their work."
Ron nodded his head to show he understood.
"That sounds interesting, KP. I've been working as the chairperson of the tasting committee for Bueno Nacho. Bueno Nacho even sponsored my schooling to be certified as a chef. I'm really excited." Ron gloated.
"That sounds great, Ron." Kim smiled.
"It is. I have enough money from Bueno Nacho endorsements, that Yori and I might be able to get married next summer." Ron was beaming with happiness.
"Oh, Ron. I'm so happy for you!" Kim was clearly enthusiastic for her friend.
"Thanks, KP. It means a lot to hear you say that...
So, KP who is this Allison you've been talking about?" Ron changed the subject.
"Oh, that's Jasmine's friend. She has been trying to re-do my fashion-sense since she met me. She drives me up a wall, sometimes. Allison and her boyfriend, Jack have been working toward degrees in engineering. They are really smart and nice people. Jack's parents died in a car accident, though. Jack has been really quiet and sullen ever since, according to Allison.
Jack also has taken the responsibility of his little brother. Allison acts like a second mother to Jack's brother and also brings out Jack's personality.
(Kim mentally wishes she could have someone as nice as Allison is to Jack in her life.)
You should meet them sometime, Ron." Kim quietly finished her thoughts.
Ron pondered it for a moment. He thought about how Allison and Jack may be able to help Kim get a date. He was looking forward to meeting them now.
"Sure, Kim. I would love to meet, them. I hope I can meet them when we get back." Ron finished.
Minutes or hours passed, nothing was for certain.
"Oh, Ron. We're here!" Kim shouted.
The presence of a large statuesque building was a welcome sight. The vines that had amassed for centuries lay upon the building, which was beginning to crumble because of its century old age. The sun shone and reflected off of the entrance way. Strange inscriptions of roaring beasts conformed into monkey-like images that were sprawled across its ancient sides. They had arrived at the Monkey Temple.
