"Why did you hurt them?" Said Betty, acting as Kim's mouth, she visibly cringed while asking such a ridiculous question. The princess really had been sheltered, and because of htat, she was forced ask some very very ridiculous questions. She pinched the bridge of her nose, 'Something dumb is going to happen.'
"Well," began Shego, taking a another swig from her bottle, "They wanted to...hmm how should I put this, use my services without paying for them." She leaned back and considered her choice of words. Satified she took another gulp, the firey liquid spilling over her mouth again.
Kim whispered to Betty again, but she shook her head. Betty held up her hand to Shego, "Wait a minute."
Shego, interested only in the bottle in her hand, waved her off, and frowned, 'Almost empty...' She heard furious whispering coming from behind the screen. A few minutes later they were still arguing, Shego was bored, they hadn't asked her to do anything, and she needed money, why for booze of course. Glorious alcohol and the pleasures that come with it. She leaned back in her chair. Plopped the bottle on the table unsteadily. Watched it wobble and fall, drops of the alcohol spilling. She frowned and pulled another bottle from somwhere in her tattered clothes. She flicked the cork off with a thumb, and drained a quarter of it in a gulp. She leant further back, her matted tresses on the floor behind her, eyes unfocused glaring at the ceiling. She raised her hand towards it, reaching upwards, her legs pushing her back.
And she fell with a resounding crash, the chair had been tipped over far enough. Her hand still outstretched she lay there on the ground, and there was no effort to get up.
It seemd as though the crash was significant enough for those bickering behind the screen to stop. Betty stepped out from behind it and leant over the prone form of Shego. "The princess wants you to teach her to fight."
Shego stared at Betty, her neck craned so that she could see weather this was a joke or not, regardless she burst out laughing, rollling on the floor from side to side, devoid of all shame.
"Goddamn Bets," she slurred, "I needed that, haven't had a good laugh in a while. So you gonna let me leave now or what?"
Betty shook her head no, "She is quite adamant about it."
"She knows that I'll charge her right?"
"She knows."
"Well, I'll get my payement before each session, and I want a room here. And as much booze as I can drink!"
Shego turned to the screen, "Didja hear that princess" she called mockingly.
The silhouette nodded.
"Good." Smirked Shego, and promptly passed out.
AN: This was short but there was a definitve development here, Shego has moved into the palace. I was thinking of having mroe dialogue, but I just couldn't see betty asking the questions that kim would in that situation, so I had them bicker behind the screen, I hope you agree with my judgement. If you don't well at least I updated right.
