[AN] Sorry for the late ups.

Paper Hearts


Phase 4: I Spy

Kim free fell from the jet, at exactly seven in the evening on a school night. If she was still living with her mom and dad they would definitely scold her for it. Kim sighed, at least she wasn't living there anymore and she has her own place to stay as well. Kim, really, did not need to care about her school work since she had already finished eight degrees and six of those were already doctorates. But because of her studious personality she still kept her face value or reputation on its peak. Oh well, being a spy had its ups and downs in life and missing school work is one of those downs.

Kim manoeuvred her parachute, slowly yet precise into a small opening in the American Space Lab. She landed gracefully like a cat, barely letting a sound out of her feet. She then revert the parachute back into her bag, thinking that it might be useful for her escape later. She sighed, well so much for causing a scene. She would want that of course, it gives her thrill in her work.

Kim slowly yet sure studied the map that Wade Load gave here earlier in the ride.

"Piece of cake" she muttered, loud enough for herself to hear.

She made her way pass the security systems and towards the destined meet-up location. Kim was a little excited with this for a while because, obviously, she caught interest on this green thief. It was something that she cannot explain to herself. Well maybe she can but she really doesn't bother to understand it. Kim sighed. Well that's for an explanation for some weird sensation while fighting this woman, maybe she was attracted to her. Kim stopped her thoughts when she heard a faint sound, a slam of a file case.

"She must be there."


Kim rolled away from the green fire, merely landing a few centimetres from her face.

"Hey! I could get burned with that!" Kim complained.

"Well Princess, I ain't holding back. You chose to come here and bother me with work and you expect me to play around?" Miss S replied.

Kim grunted. How could this arrogant woman not hesitate to kill someone? She doesn't even show mercy to me! Oh yeah, right, I'm her freaking enemy of course she'd kill me without a second thought! Kim frowned at the though. She had been hoping that this kind of jobs won't end in both or either parties killing each other.

"Well, alright, since we've establish the agreement. I'm ready to fight you head on" Kim said as she wiped the soot on her cheek.

"Bring it."

Kim charged towards Miss S. The two women sent punches and kicks flying in their directions. Kim gained the upper hand for a moment when she kicked Miss S right next to the wall.

"Getting old already, Missus S?" Kim mocked.

Miss S gritted her teeth, she was so annoyed that someone could make her fall on her knees and mock her at the same time, and she didn't like that one bit. She increased the heat of her plasma.

"I'm just getting warmed up, pumpkin. And pumpkin, you're gonna pay for using two taboos in one sentence" a hint in her eyes showed the killer instinct. Kim felt her knees shake a bit. She had never seen let alone encountered someone who had this intense killing intent showing in their eyes. If she lose to her then it was bye-bye Kimberly Ann Possible, died at the age of 18. Kim gulped, so much for finding someone to marry.

Kim's eyes widened at the intensifying green flame that almost covered Miss S's arm. The teen hero suddenly became alarmed when her opponent charged forward to her. Kim scrambled to her feet as she dodged left and right avoiding her opponents burning hands. Kim felt the heat, it was increasing by the minute that at close range she might even burn without even touching the fire itself.

Kim thought that she needed to distance herself, so she flipped backwards. She wiped the sweat trickling by her eyebrows with her back hand. She breathed heavily, but it wasn't of relief. She was getting tired and that was a big no-no. Kim took her defensive stance.

"Putting some distance, eh princess?" the opponent smirked.

"Give up already!" Kim riposte.

"No, you should, or I'll make you drop on your knees and make you beg to me to let you go" Miss S said tauntingly. Kim frowned; she never liked the idea of bowing to someone let alone a villain. It's just plain disgusting. Miss S charged forward. Kim managed to block every single hit her opponent sent her, she had even glazed her hand at the process but she didn't mind it, or rather she can't make herself mind it.

After a series of punches and kicks, Kim found an opening and quickly jabbed her hand upwards, causing Miss S's mask to slightly come off. Miss S suddenly stopped and back flipped away from Kim, grabbed the case which was hidden by the desk and went to the darkest side of the room.

"I'm getting tired of this, and the security had already found out someone broke in" she said. Her left hand is currently holding the mask up while her right hand still held the case.

"Well, just give me that damn case and this would all be over!" Kim shouted in reply.

"Nah. I need this for my job" she paused and pursed her lips. "Well, let's play a game shall we?"

Kim stopped to think. "How would I know you won't ditch me when this is over?"

"I'm pretty strict with my promises Princess" she said. "Alright, if you win this silly game you have the case and I'll leave empty handed, but if I win…" she paused "you'll give me something you can only give" Miss S chuckled.

"Right, so what would that be?"

"Uh-uh, that's for you to find out" she wagged her fingers sideways.

"Alright. And the game?"

"Excited aren't you?" teased Kim's opponent.

"Just name your game" irritated, Kim replied.

"I spy"

"I spy?"

"The rules are simple pumpkin" she continued. "You have three turns, and all you have to do is get everything right. I spy something and you tell me what it is"

"That's it?"

"Within a minute"

"A minute…. Cheeky" Kim tapped her lips, thinking if she should just continue brawling with the other woman or just play a silly game. Well, she didn't have any upper hand on both cases. The room was dimly lit it was hard to spy objects. It's also a bit cluttered due to their previous fight. But hey, if she can pull this off it's her win "I accept, but with another condition, you're going to show your real face to me when I win"

Miss S smirked. "Fine, let's begin"

"I spy something flat and white with black on it"

"Paper"

"Correct"

"I spy something blue, silvery and pointed"

"…" Kim looked around the area; her eyes scanning for something shinning and silver like. "Pen"

"Correct"

"I spy something red"

"Red? That's it?" Questioned Kim with a tone of disbelief. How was she supposed to know what that red thing was? There were about ten read things in this room that is red. "This is so unfair!"

"Tick-tock Princess" Miss S warned, her facing showing of an irking smirk. "One wrong answer and it's bye-bye"

Kim's eyes scanned madly. Notebook? Sticker? Box? She looked at Miss S's eyes hoping that she could get a hint from her. Alas, Kim found some hint, even thought it was a slim chance that it was what she was looking for. She looked behind her and found out that the sofa was red, it's cushions as well. It has to be it.

"…Cushion?"

"hmm…" Miss S frowned. Then she sighed. "Sorry Princess, I was aiming for your pretty red hair." Miss S stressed the word red.

"Damn Sly Fox" muttered Kim in annoyance.

"Well good luck next time, Pumpkin. Au revior!" Without another glance the mysterious green theif vanished. Kim groaned in disappointment. That sly fox got her again, to think that she was pertaining red hair.

A familiar tune suddenly broke her thoughts. She fished out her Kimmunicator.

"Hey Kim"

"Wade, I lost it to her!"

"You what?"

"She beat me, fair and square. By the way Wade, can you trace her? I bugged her"

"Tracking" Wade typed madly on his keyboards. Then after a few minutes of working she faced Kim with a beaten look as well.

"What?"

"The tick malfunctioned. Actually it burned, short-circuited due to intense heat."

"Plasma."

"Huh?" Wade questioned. He was pretty confused on why Kim would say plasma. Or he was thinking it was plain impossible for someone to have plasma for a weapon.

"She wields plasma, Wade. Anyway, I'm tired; do I have a ride home?" Kim sighed.

"Yup, your jet is waiting for you, above" Kim looked up and found her sleek jet. A ladder already pulled down for her. She walked towards the ladder and took one glance on the surroundings. So much for saving the world. Kim's eyes suddenly caught sight of something glistening under the moonlight. She walked to it, hopping to get a closer look. She bent down and picked it up. It was a ring. She wondered if it was from the professor residing in the office or someone else's. But by the looks of it, it belongs to a female owner and as far as she was concerned the professor was a male. Odd. She inspected it. The stone embedded on it was jade green and there was an inscription written on it. ''

"Kim?" Wade said from the jet's computer.

"Yeah, coming"


[Next Day]

Kim managed to swerve through the crowed hallway and into her Math Class. She barely arrived because the final bell rang merely seconds after her arrival. Their teacher entered the room and placed his books on his desk and started his lesson.

The lesson went on and on, Kim admits, she was a little bored of this class. She could easily do this, and also she had also finished the course last year, but she never dared to complain out loud. Kim looked out her window minding the sway of tree branches, back and forth; lulling her to sleep.

The class was quiet except for the scratch of chalk on the board and the scratches of pens writing on notebooks. All was normal and undisturbed until there was a knock on the door. Kim, curious as she is turned her head almost along with all her classmates to the direction of the commotion.

Her teacher went to the door opened it and stayed there for a few minutes. By the looks of it he was talking to someone. Then he opened the door widely.

A girl with short black hair entered. Her face looked that she came somewhere from the east. She nodded to her professor or was she bowing? Kim couldn't tell.

"Miss Yori, I will not tolerate tardiness next time that you would decide to do so. I will let you through just this once because you jot got out of sickness. But next time…"

"I am very sorry professor. I will not be tardy next time" she bowed. "Gomenasai" she bowed again.

"Japanese?" Kim asked herself.

"Yeah, she's one hot Asian chick" her classmate, Brick Flag commented.

"Yes, Brick. All women that are rare to see are hot for you" another of her classmate commented.

"Yeah, I don't find you hot."

"Hey!"

Kim drowned the conversation of her classmates at the back of her mind as she focused on Yori. Kim pulled out her Kimmunicator and scanned for her agent files. She browsed the names and soon found what she was looking for.

"Hello target number four" Kim smiled.

"Miss Possible no phones allowed in my class!"


[Lunch]

"Hard day GF?" Mo asked as she quietly placed her tray down on the table.

"Mmm.. Yeah…" Kim replied, not looking up from the book she was reading. Kim frowned when she read the next chapter.

"BOOYAH!" a student shout from the crowd converted Kim's attention. It was familiar, Kim thought, it was too familiar.

Kim's head whipped to the direction faster than a bullet. She curiously eyed the crowd searching for that person who shouted that familiar phrase, lo and behold. That blonde who was supposed to be somewhere in Japan was here. What the hell was going on? Why on earth is-

"Yoh! KP!" he shouted excitedly, all eyes turned to her. Kim slapped her face and slowly dragged down her hand. Her face not even daring to remove the frown that was lingering on it.

"Ron Stoppable"


TBC

Ohh, I wonder why Ron showed up and who is Yori? And what is the meaning of the ring she found at the lab? Find answers on the next chapter!
