Chapter 3: Practice makes perfect
"Good morning mom, dad, tweebs," Kim said cheerfully as she walked into the kitchen."
"Good morning Kimmie, did you sleep well?"
"I sure did, what's for breakfast?"
"I made pancakes, and there are eggs as well."
"My pancakes are cold," Jim started to walk to the microwave.
"I'll save you a trip," Kim picked up the plate and held her hand under it, and activated her glow.
A few second later, the pancake was burned to a black crisp and the plate had cracked under the heat.
"Okay, maybe I need a little training with this," Kim placed the plate on the table, burning a hole in the tablecloth.
"Maybe you need a little training in cooking," her mother told, looking unhappy at the ruined tablecloth.
"Sorry mom, I'll buy you a new tablecloth."
"Good morning KP," Ron entered the kitchen, "oh, pancakes."
"Didn't you get enough at home?" Kim smirked as Ron attacked the stack of pancakes, "besides, we have to get to school."
"Be right with you KP," Ron quickly swallowed two more pancakes before he joined Kim.

As Kim opened her locker at school, Wade greeted them from the computer inside the locker.
"Hey Wade, what's up?"
"Not much," the young genius told, "I just wanted to give you a heads up about some new gadgets I had placed in your locker."
"Ooh, gadgets," Ron grabbed the small bag that stood in Kim's locker and started picking out items, "let me guess, laser lipstick, knockout gas and uhm… uhm." Ron looked confused at the small can he was holding.
"Deodorant," Kim grinned, "now can I have my make-up bag back?"
"Aw man, you mean this is no knockout gas?" Ron opened the small box and a pinkish powder flew out.
"Ron, close that up, that's… thaa… haaa…" Ron ducked for cover.
Nothing happened, when Ron looked up he saw Kim wiping her nose.
"That's rouge," Kim snivelled, "it always makes me… ACHOO!"
The moment Kim sneezed, her hand that was holding the door to her locker ignited, melting the door half off.
Several students looked at Kim in surprise but soon continued on their way; they had seen weirder things.
"Destroying school property, Possible?" Kim turned around and saw Mr. Barkin glaring at her.
"No sir… well yes but it was an accident, I can explain…"
"Save your excuses for later, in detention." Barkin marched off, leaving Kim and Ron standing by the locker.
"I'm sorry KP," Ron said.
"It's not your fault," Kim assured her friend, "I just need to get this power under control."
"Maybe you could practice some after cheer-leading practice."
"Make that after detention," Kim sighed, "and it will be pretty late by then."
"Well, there is always tomorrow," Ron looked up at the computer, "so Wade, how about those new gadgets, I'm sure they will cheer KP up."
"It wouldn't have to do anything with your excitement about those gadgets, huh?" Wade smirked, "they're next to the computer."
Kim picked up the small bag that was next to the computer, "so, what did you make?"
"These are expanding gel packs," Wade explained as Kim picked up a couple of small packs, "when you open them the gel expands to about a thousand times its original size."
"And what's this?" Ron asked as he held up a ballpoint.
"New laser pen," Wade told, "you can also use it as a flashlight."
"Cool," Ron couldn't resist and clicked the ballpoint on. The laser beam from the pen sliced off the remainder of Kim's locker door.
As if out of thin air Mr. Barkin appeared behind the duo, "Stoppable, care to join miss Possible in detention?"
"Aw man," Ron whined, "but the door was already busted beyond repair."
Mr. Barkin glared at Ron, "Are you trying to make an excuse for destroying school property?"
Ron shrunk down, "No sir."
"Too bad, it would have worked," the large vice principal turned around, "I'll see the two of you in detention."

"Why are you so late?" Kim's mother asked when Kim and Ron finally returned from school.
"Detention," they said in unison.
"What did you do?"
"I sneezed."
"And I clicked a ballpoint."
Mrs. Possible smirked, "Meaning?"
"The sneeze accidentally activated the plasma power," Kim explained, "and Ron was trying out Wade's new laser ballpoint."
At the mention of Kim's new powers her mother started to look worried, "Are you sure that the plasma has no negative effects on you?"
"Yes I'm sure mom," Kim sighed, "I'm also sure that physical you want to do is completely unnecessary."
"You're still getting it, young lady," Anne scolded, "who knows what that plasma does to your body."
"Mom, Shego had it all the time and she is in perfect health."
"Uh KP, Shego has green skin," Kim glared angrily at Ron who quickly backed up a few paces, "I'm just saying."
"Shego is green because of the comet, not because of her powers." Kim tried in vain to change her mother's mind.
"Forget it, you're getting a full check up," Mrs. Dr. Possible stated, "and as long as you have those powers, I want to monitor you at least every month."
"So far, my new powers only proved to be a big pain in the butt," Kim muttered as she walked inside the living room.
"I'm sure it will work out," Ron comforted her before he walked off to his home, "see you tomorrow KP."

Three days, several more accidents and a slightly burned Bonnie had passed before Kim found the time to start seriously practicing her new-found powers.
"Throw a small one," Ron said, "now a bigger one… and now a beam."
Kim complied and shot at the target as Ron told her to, but she quickly got bored with it. Over the past few days, Kim had found out how to keep her powers down, also her fine control over the plasma balls quickly increased.
"I think I got the hang of it." Kim kicked off her shoes, "let me try something new."
Concentrating more, Kim kicked towards the practice target and shot a ball of plasma from her foot, and fell over as she lost her balance because of the backfire.
"Wow, that was amazing," Ron helped Kim up, "I've never seen Shego do this kind of stuff."
"Probably because Shego wears shoes," Kim grinned, "and she doesn't want to burn them."
"I don't know," Ron pondered, "she also wears gloves all the time and never burns those."
"That's true," Kim admitted, "but still, the backfire is too strong for it to come in handy."
"I'll say," Ron snickered, "I bet you can launch yourself into he air with a powerful enough blast."
"Maybe I can," Kim prepared to make a jump and shot a plasma blast from each foot the moment she left the ground, her jump easily topped twenty feet high.
Kim rolled with the blow as she fell down on he ground, but the impact still hurt.
"Maybe you should use another blast before landing," Ron suggested.
"Maybe, not today though," Kim rubbed her painful legs, "mom wants to do that check-up this afternoon and I don't want to add twisted ankles to her worries."
BEEB BEEB BEEEEB BEEB
"What's up Wade?" Kim asked after she answered the Kimmunicator.
"Dementor is active again," Wade told, "I have all kinds of strange energy readings at his position."
"Anything that gets me away from mom today," Kim grinned, "got us a ride?"
"It should be there in five minutes."
