Author's Notes: I would first like to apologize for the delay between updates. Spring is a busy time of year for me and I have been doing more reading than writing lately. I would like to thank all of you that reviewed the last chapter, it lets me know someone is actually reading this stuff. A special thanks goes out to my beta reader, Ghostwhiter, who gave me a kick in the pants to get writing again. Thanks!
Professor Dementor lunged at his mask. "Ahhh! They vill scan me!" he raved in a mad voice. Shego lit up her plasma and slashed at him, knocking him back into the corner.
Kim had just finished with the last henchman when she heard the familiar voice of Shego yelling. Shego was standing next to Ron with her plasma lit up; Ron was leaning away from her but not running. "Ron!" Kim yelled, jumping to attack. She tackled Shego to the floor and pinned her, surprised when Ron tumbled to the ground with them.
"KP! Get off us!" Ron yelled, "get Dementor, he hit us with a bondo thingy!"
Kim scrambled to her feet as Shego glowered at her. "I owe you for that Princess."
Kim glanced up to where Dementor had just gotten to his feet, looking a little shaky. "This vill not be the last you see of me!" Dementor yelled shaking his fist at the trio. He reached out a tapped a hidden control on the wall and was whisked away through a hole that opened up in the floor.
Kim rushed to the corner and hit the area that he had touched but couldn't get the door to open. "He got away," she stated unhappily.
"Aww, man," Ron whined looking at a very upset Shego.
"You better have a way to fix this Princess," she said in a menacing voice.
"Umm, no big. Wade analyzed the last solvent for the bondo balls; he should be able to whip some up pretty quick." Kim pulled out her Kimmunicator and hit the call button.
Wade's face popped up on the screen, "Hey Kim, everything go all right?"
Kim looked back at Shego glowering at her holding Dementor's mask and Ron cringing, holding the Pan Dimensional Vortex Inducer. "More or less. We retrieved the PDVI," she said apprehensively. She held the Kimmunicator to the side to provide Wade with a view of Shego and Ron standing very close to each other. "But Ron and Shego got stuck together with a Bondo ball," she stated.
"Uh huh," Wade stated in surprise.
"That's all you can say is 'uh huh' Nerdlinger? You have a cure for this don't you?" Shego snapped.
"Yes, I have a few doses of the solvent stored in case this happened again," Wade snipped, obviously annoyed at Shego's remark. "I'll send some over to your house Kim."
"Please and thank you Wade," Kim stated, putting the Kimmunicator into her pocket.
"Great, I get to visit Kimmie's house again," Shego snipped.
Kim held up her hand, "So not the time for your attitude Shego, let's go."
"I don't take orders from you Princess," Shego said, crossing her arms angrily.
"Please Shego," Ron stated wearily. "Let's just go there and get unstuck and then we'll figure this out."
"Yah right, I leave with you guys and we get unstuck and you two jump me and haul me in. Ut uh, not going to happen bucko," Shego stated angrily.
Kim pursed her lips, thinking for a moment. "I'll give you the same opportunity you gave us on the hoverlair. If you leave quietly when I get you two unstuck we'll let you go."
Shego pursed her lips, mulling it over for a moment, "It's a deal Princess." She bent down to stuff the mask in the pouch on her calf, inadvertently pulling Ron off balance and sending them both to the floor on their butts.
"Sorry Shego," Ron said unhappily.
"Let's just get out of here," Shego groused as they struggled to their feet together. They awkwardly made their way to the entrance with Kim trailing. They stumbled on the way to the truck and Shego glared at Ron. "Try to stay in step with me, I can't match your longer strides."
"I'll do the best I can," Ron said apprehensively as he pulled the keys out of his pocket and unlocked the door.
"I am not sitting next to Kimmie," Shego snarked, realizing that Ron was stuck on her left side and she would be stuck in the middle if Ron drove.
"I'll drive Ron," Kim stated, rolling her eyes as she held out her hands for the keys. Ron frowned and handed them to her as Shego and him managed to climb into the front seat together. "Just don't wreck it Kim, I just got it."
"Nice color selection Stoppable," Shego commented. She eyeballed Kim's crop top, "At least one of you has a little bit of taste."
Kim gritted her teeth and put the pedal down, throwing them both back into the seat. "I so can't wait until I can beat her again."
Ron and Shego sat at the table together in the Possible's kitchen. Shego looked a bit greener than normal as Ron chowed down on some of Mrs. Dr. P's leftover brain loaf.
"Try some, it's really good," Ron stated happily as Rufus darted around his plate, grabbing stray pieces.
"Ugh, no thanks," Shego stated looking away.
Kim stood a little ways away, tapping her foot impatiently and frowning. Finally the doorbell chimed. "I got it," Kim said as she rushed to the front door. She came back in a moment later, opening a small package. Inside was Ron's repaired Kimmunicator and a small aerosol can.
The Kimmunicator can to life and Wade's face appeared on the screen. "I see the package arrived," Wade stated. "You just have to spray the area the of the bond and you should be able to separate. It might stain your clothes though."
"I can stand stained clothes if that's going to separate us," Ron said, swallowing the last of his food.
Shego and Ron stood up and Kim grabbed the can. "Here we go," Kim stated as she sprayed the bonded area. The can let forth as yellow mist as Kim sprayed for a second.
Shego and Ron tried to move apart, only succeeding in yanking each other from side to side. "It's not working," Ron stated, frowning.
"Maybe you need to shake it up," Shego said, grabbing the can and shaking it vigorously. She sprayed the area until the can ran out, but they were still stuck together. "Any other bright ideas Nerdlinger?" Shego snapped.
"Easy Shego, he's doing the best he can," Kim said angrily. "Wade?"
"Umm. It looks like Professor Dementor improved on his bonding formula," Wade said worriedly. "I'll have to analyze the used ball that you sent me and try to come up with a solvent."
"How long is that going to take?" Ron asked as Shego glowered at the screen.
"I don't know Ron," maybe a week or two?" Wade said apprehensively.
"What!" Kim and Shego yelled at the same time. Ron and Wade were too smart to try to call jinx on that one.
"I can't be stuck like this for a week or two!" Ron exclaimed. "I can't miss any more school and I wanted to go to the spirit week dance next weekend."
"It's no picnic for me either Stoppable," Shego stated unhappily.
"I'll get right to work on it guys," Wade said.
"Please and thank you Wade," Kim stated unhappily. She turned to Shego and Ron as they sat back down in the chairs unhappily, "Now what are we going to do about this until Wade comes up with a solution?"
"I'm not staying here," Shego said with a grimace.
"You're not taking Ron back to the hoverlair," Kim said flatly.
"Don't I get a say in this?" Ron asked.
"No." they both snapped at him.
"We can stay at my house," Ron said ignoring them. "My parents have both dealt with this before when Mr. Barkin and I were stuck together." He rubbed his chin, "Although my mom might freak out about a villainess sleeping with me under her roof."
Shego glared daggers at him for even mentioning sleeping with her. "We can go to one of my safe houses," she stated menacingly.
Kim glared at her, "No. We need someplace neutral."
They all sat quietly for a moment when Ron came up with an idea, "Hey, don't you have a room at the Go Tower?"
Shego grimaced, "He's right, I do. I have some stuff stashed there too, old clothes and such. I won't be able to dodge my brothers for a whole week though." "I guess that will work for now," she said begrudgingly.
"It's settled then, I'll call Wade for a ride," Kim said, fishing out her Kimmunicator.
Kim set up a ride and Ron packed up some of the spare clothes that he had in the guest room. "I'm going to have to change in front of Shego," he thought as he shoved clothes into a duffle bag. "She's going to have to change in front of me," he thought, fighting the urge to look over at her.
It was getting dark out when the sounds of a aircraft settling down outside broke the relative quiet of Kim's room where they had gathered to keep Shego from killing the tweebs. Shego and Ron looked out the window at their ride sitting on the street.
"Oh no. Oh no no. Nerdlinger is dead," Shego snapped as she saw the Go jet sitting outside with three of her four brothers climbing out.
"I wonder why Mego didn't come?" Ron stated.
Shego growled in response. "Too self absorbed to worry about picking up his only sister."
"I guess it's time to go," Ron said as he picked up his duffle bag. Kim nodded and they headed downstairs to the front door.
"Kim there's show folk at the front door again," Mr. Dr. P. stated unhappily. "You know I don't like show folk."
"They just be here a minute Daddy," Kim said, smiling sweetly at him as she walked out the front door past him.
Hego stood outside in his super hero outfit, a wide grin on his face. The Wegos were waiting by the plane. "Nice to see you again sis. Got yourself in a sticky situation did we?"
Kim and Shego rubbed their foreheads while Ron laughed, slapping Hego on the shoulder and then rubbing his now aching hand. "The guy's built like a rock."
"Oy, and you wonder why I turned to the dark side Princess," Shego said with a weary voice. "Come on Stoppable, let's get out of here."
"Bye Kim," Ron waved sadly.
"Bye Ron," Kim waved back. "Hego, make sure Shego doesn't hurt him please."
"Don't worry Miss Possible," Hego leaned in blocking his mouth with his overly large hand, "she's more bark than bite."
"Sha!" Kim responded with an arched eyebrow.
Hego spun around, raising his hand to point to the aircraft, "To the GO JET!" He tromped his way towards the entrance. Shego shook her head, lowering it a little bit, her shoulders slouching as she and Ron walked toward the jet dejectedly.
"I almost feel sorry for Shego," Kim thought with a grin, "almost."
One of the Wegos landed the jet on the roof of the Go Tower and Hego turned to Ron. "Welcome to the Go Tower," he said, sweeping his hand grandly. They exited the jet. "This tower was built to help us protect.." Hego began.
Ron, tired and cranky from the flight held up his hand, "Dude, I've been here before."
"When?" Hego asked, bewildered.
"When Aviarius stole your powers and me and Kim helped you get them back," Ron stated.
The Wegos shook their heads in agreement. "He had the little mole rat with him," they stated together.
Rufus took this opportunity to pop out of Ron's pocket squeaking out, "Ta da!".
Hego looked at Ron and down at Rufus, "I'm drawing a blank here," he stated, rubbing his chin.
Ron huffed, exasperated, "I was the guy with the power of imagination."
Shego burst out laughing.
"Nice Shego, make fun of the guy without super powers," Ron quipped.
"Uh huh," Shego drawled out with raised eyebrows.
"Oh, I think a remember a scrawny blond kid with Kim. That was you huh?" Hego mused.
"Yea, that's me. The scrawny blond guy." Ron said with a huff.
"His name is Ron," one of the Wegos stated.
"Oh, OK Ron. Well one thing I'm sure you didn't know about the Go Tower is that Friday night is family game night!" Hego stated happily.
"Oh what fresh torment is this?" Shego asked wearily.
"We started it after you left," one Wego started.
"And have been playing on Fridays ever since," the other finished.
"Ouu, what games do you play," Ron asked happily.
Shego glared at him, "not now, not ever. I'm beat, we're going to bed."
The Wegos quickly divided into numerous multiples and all began chanting, "please, please, please, please, please," over and over again excitedly.
After a moment of plugging her ears and shaking her head Shego yelled, "ENOUGH! Fine we'll play one game," and tromped into the main hall area the Wegos and Hego following along.
One of the Wegos pulled out a game and set it on the table, while the other ran to the kitchen for snacks. Shego and Ron squeezed into her green chair. Shego set her chin on her hand, waiting for the torture to end, while Ron looked over at the game Wego was taking out.
"You know how to play Sorry right Ron?" the present Wego asked. Ron nodded his head yes.
Hego reached down to pick out the pieces and began setting up the board. "We all get our own colors. Ron, you can play Mego's purple pieces since he was too busy to come tonight," Hego stated with a frown. "I wonder where he could be? I hope he's not in any danger."
Ron picked up a purple piece from the board, noticing it was the yellow pieces, only coated in purple nail polish. "Greaaat," he said slowly as he looked the piece over.
Shego looked over, "Hey! Is that my purple nail polish?" she growled.
Hego gave a half-hearted smile, picked up the dice, and rolled them, beginning the game.
"Aren't you playing?" Ron asked the Wego that had just returned with snacks.
"Oh, no. We both share red," the first Wego began.
"We don't like to compete against each other," the other Wego finished.
A little ways into the game Hego rolled his dice and moved his piece over to one of Shego's and yelled, "BOOM! SORRY!" as he knocked her piece over taking it's place with his own.
Ron felt Shego tense and could tell Hego's antics were upsetting her. "Time for some self preservation," he thought. He changed his game plan to stomping on Hego and the Wego's pieces and avoiding Shego's. Shego seemed to catch on and they shutdown Hego's gloating and ended the game relatively quickly.
"We should have played Monopoly," Hego stated, upset at being ganged up on.
Shego stretched and yawned and Ron couldn't help but to glance a little. She dropped her arms clipping him along side the head. She looked at him with a grin, "Opps." She turned back to her brothers, "game's over. We're turning in now. Let's go Stoppable."
They left the table and took the elevator to a floor higher up in the Go Tower. Rufus scampered along behind, his cheeks stuffed with cheesy puffs. "So how are we going to do this Shego," Ron asked apprehensively.
Shego smiled and looked up into his eyes mischievously. "We are going to play a little game," she purred as Ron gulped.
"A A game?" Ron stammered.
Shego nodded her head up and down, "Yes a game," she continued quietly. "It's called 'Ron goes'.." and she jammed a knuckle into his ribs.
"Ouch!" Ron yelped.
Shego chuckled as she resumed her normal voice, "You know this game then don't you?"
"I know that part I guess," Ron said angrily as he rubbed the sore spot.
"The rules are simple Stoppable, and as a gentleman you should already know them. You don't look at me inappropriately, you don't touch me inappropriately, you respect my privacy the best you can in our 'condition', and you do what I tell you. Understand?" Shego asked calmly. Ron nodded his head and Shego smiled, "Good."
They walked to a room with a green door and stepped through as Shego flipped on the lights. Ron looked around at the room that resembled most any other teenaged girl's bedroom. There were posters of a boy band that died our when the 'O'boyz' hit the scene, some stuffed animals, awards, and frilly blankets and pillows on the full size bed.
"Not quite what I expected," Ron stated, a hint of surprise in his voice. The room was, well, girly.
"What do you mean by that," Shego asked defensively, a scowl playing at her face.
"Umm, nothing really. I just expected something a little different." Ron said a little warily.
"Like what? Punching bags and bullwhips?" Shego snarked.
Ron hung his head sheepishly, "No, nothing like that." "What did I expect, grunge rock posters and holes in the walls? The room, it's just so.. normal." he thought.
Shego pulled Ron over to a dresser and opened the top drawer as Ron looked on. She glanced up at him irritated and jabbed him in the ribs.
"Ouch," Ron yelped and blushed, realizing that he had been looking into Shego's underwear drawer.
Shego pulled out a green and black bikini set. "I hope this still fits," she mumbled as she held it up. Ron was wisely looking away when she looked over at him. "You stink and need a shower. There's no way I am letting you sleep next to me without one. Did you pack a swimsuit?" she asked.
"N No," Ron stammered.
"Then you'll have to wear your boxers while I'm soaping up," she stated. She led him into the a joining bathroom, "cover your eyes." Ron did as he was instructed and Shego began peeling out of her jumpsuit. He could hear it sliding over her skin and felt her struggling to get the swimsuit to go on right. "Alright, you can open them."
Ron opened his eyes to the site of Shego wearing a green and black bikini that was obviously too small for her. He looked away quickly. "Sorry," he gasped as he tried not to become aroused by the nearly naked beauty standing next to him.
Shego grinned, "I told you that you could look. Now strip down to your boxers." She started the shower while he nervously stripped down to his boxers and she motioned him into the shower. "I hope this stuff is still good," she said, holding up a half empty bottle of shampoo. "I haven't used this bathroom in a couple of years."
"Shego," Ron gulped. "Ah, how are we going to wash our.. you know."
"Get your hair washed first Stoppable, then we'll worry about the rest." She squirted some shampoo out for herself and then for Ron. "Didn't you get stuck together with one of your school teachers or something?"
"Yeah, Mr. Barkin," Ron said rubbing the shampoo into his hair and then rinsing it out. He made sure not to look at Shego, "That was a bit different than this. You're, well, a woman."
"Really?" Shego gasped. "I never noticed. Switch spots, I need to rinse." Shego rinsed her hair and looked Ron in the eyes. "This is where the game goes up a level. Leering at me with clothes on is a level one offense, no clothes steps it up to level two. Do you need an example of what level two 'ouch' is?"
"No!" Ron exclaimed.
"Aww, you sure?" Shego fake whined.
"Yes, I'm sure Shego," Ron said rolling his eyes
"Then keep your eyes closed when I tell you to. Now close them," she ordered.
Ron closed his eyes while Shego slide out of her bikini. "Damn thing is a little snug, haven't worn it since high school." She flipped it over the shower door for easy access when she finished and began soaping up, trying to bump Ron as little as possible.
Ron trembled a little as Shego inadvertently rubbed against him. "Come on Mad Dog, don't think about the hot body bumping into you. EEP!"
Shego looked over when Ron trembled a little bit. A grin spread over her face as she noticed Ron's imagination was getting the better of him as the bulge in his boxers began to grow. She washed up good and rinsed off, putting her bikini back on as Ron's boxers tented and a deep red blush covered his face, complete to his ears.
"Your turn Stoppable, you can open your eyes," Shego stated with a grin.
Ron took his turn washing as Shego pretended not to watch him. He glanced over at her, "Shego, are you OK? Your lips are green… OUCH!"
"That's for checking me out when my eyes are closed," she snarked. She softened her voice, "My lips are always green, they have been since the comet struck. I usually use lipstick to cover them up. Finish up, I'm starting to get all wrinkly."
They finished the shower and managed to get changed into pajamas with a minimum of ogling. Ron amused himself by reading the titles on her bookshelf as she brushed out her hair. When she finished they crawled into bed.
Ron leaned over and clicked the light off. "I can't believe I am going to sleep next to Kim's arch nemesis. This is way weird. Me and those damn bondo balls.." Ron thought, feeling a bit guilty. "Shego?" Ron whispered.
"Yeah Sport?" Shego replied quietly.
Ron stared up at the darkened ceiling, "Sorry about getting us stuck together like this."
Shego sighed, "Yeah I know, me too. Don't worry about it though; stuff happens when you're fighting super villains. Goodnight Stoppable."
"Goodnight Shego." "Oh yeah, she used to be a hero, I bet she knows all about fighting super villains." Ron's mind wandered a little before the fatigue from the day's events finally forced him to sleep.
Shego waited until she was sure that Ron was asleep. She grabbed her blueberry off of the nightstand and sent out her text messages.
Ron woke up as Shego stirred, trying not to move and wake her. "Ugh. Morning came entirely too early," he thought as she raised her head up from the pillow.
"You awake Stoppable?" Shego asked with a groan.
"Yeah," Ron said quietly.
"You sleep as well as I did?" she asked sarcastically.
"I didn't sleep well, you kept trying to roll over away from me," Ron said with a yawn.
"Yeah, I never have been able to sleep well on my back, I always sleep on my side."
"Can we get up? I kinda have to go," Ron stated as he started to sit up.
Shego looked over with a grin, "You had to drink all that soda while we were playing games last night, it would serve you right if I went back to sleep."
Ron shrugged his shoulders, "It's your bed."
Shego lost her grin and sat up, the thought of Ron wetting her bed suddenly unappealing. "Alright, let's get this over with." They took turns going to the bathroom and got dressed. Ron put on his usual red jersey and carpenter jeans while Shego pulled a jumpsuit out of the closet.
"Wow, it's already nine o'clock. I'm surprised that your brothers haven't rousted us out of bed by now," Ron stated.
"They know better than to try that anymore. Besides, they're all probably on their way to temple by now." Shego stated as they left her room and headed towards the kitchen. Ron stopped suddenly, causing Shego to stumble and nearly fall. "What's the big idea Stoppable!?" she asked, slightly annoyed.
"Temple? You're Jewish?" he asked.
"Yeah, though I don't observe much anymore," Shego stated with a shrug.
"Oh," Ron stated quizzically. "Why not?"
Shego gave him an annoyed look, "The same reason I became a villain. I don't really want to talk about it."
"Whatever happened must have been pretty bad to make you give up being a hero and abandon your religion," Ron said softly.
"I said I don't want to talk about it!" Shego yelled, stopping by the fridge to get out some ingredients for omelets.
Ron took the ingredients from her as she led him to the pots and pans. She slammed one down on the stove and started the burner. She got out a bowl and Ron helped her prepare their breakfast. They ate breakfast in silence; Ron went to make conversation but Shego just glared at him every time he tried to get one started.
"He had to bring that up again. I don't like to remember that," Shego thought with a frown. She thought back, remembering the twin tragedies that turned her away from Team Go and her religion. She kept looking down at her plate and moving her food around, chewing slowly as her mind dwelt on unpleasant memories.
"Aww man. I must of have really hit a nerve. She actually looks more sad than angry." Ron put down his fork, "I'm sorry," he said, a look of concern on his face.
"Whatever," Shego snapped looking up at Ron. "He actually looks worried about me," she thought as she noticed the concern in his warm, brown eyes. Her face softened a bit, "It's OK. You just brought up a bad memory. My life hasn't been all peaches and cream you know."
"I suppose not," Ron said with his eyes on his plate. "Otherwise you wouldn't be so angry so often."
"What do you know?" Shego replied, building up steam. "What garbage has life dumped on you? You have no responsibilities, nothing more to worry about than whether or not you'll get a date to the next school dance. Don't think to judge me."
Ron looked up, a bit shocked at her outburst, "I I suppose you're right. I just thought it might help to talk about it."
She looked at him for a minute and shook her head, her voice losing its edge. "You are almost as bad as Hego. Trying to fix me so I won't be a 'bad girl' anymore. When your world comes falling down around you then you can come talk to me about problems." She pushed out her chair slowly standing as Ron did the same. "Let's get this stuff cleaned up, then you're going to pay. You got me riled up and the only cure for that is exercise. I hope you're up for a little running."
"Aww man, this tanks!" Ron stated unhappily as he started handing Shego dishes to load in the dishwasher.
Ron and Shego were sitting on the couch. Ron was watching TV and resting his legs after they washed up from their 5-mile run on the treadmills. Shego would have liked to go longer, but it was getting difficult for them to stay in step when they began to tire. So they settled for beating on the punching bags for a while. Shego's mood seemed to improve as Ron and her beat the dust off of the various pieces of equipment in the well-stocked gym below the Go Tower.
Shego was sitting with her legs crossed, reading a magazine intently. She lowered her magazine and muttered, "Great, superman is back."
Ron looked up, not seeing anyone there. "How do you know?"
"The elevator floor light just changed, he should be in here in 3, 2, 1." As Shego reached 1 the elevator dinged and the door opened. Out stepped a slightly concerned looking Hego dressed in a button up shirt and slacks.
"Hey Shego, Don, is Mego around? He didn't show up at temple today," Hego stated with concern in his voice.
Shego sat forward, dropping the magazine on the table. "And you have no idea where he might be?"
Hego scratched his chin, looking at the magazine Shego had dropped. "No, no, no, no. He has stayed out before, but he never misses temple. I already sent the twins out to look for him at his normal hangouts. I'm going to change and look for him." He turned away and then turned back, "Do you want to help me look for him?" he asked hopefully.
"Not really," Shego stated flatly, picking up her magazine. "I have a lot of important work to catch up on here."
Hego frowned and headed back to the elevator, his broad shoulders sagging a little bit.
As the door to the elevator closed Ron turned to Shego. "You don't believe him either do you?"
Shego looked up from the paper with a grin, "Not even a little bit."
A few hours later Shego was filing her nails while Ron was busy glazing his eyes over from watching too much TV. The large view screen on the wall suddenly flickered to life. Shego and Ron looked up to see Hego, bound to a chair by ropes, scowling at someone off screen. The screen picture shook a little and a clunking sound could be heard as the man propped the Team Go communication device against something to hold it steady and stepped back into view.
"Hello and good afternoon," he began.
"It's afternoon?" Shego asked, interrupting the man. "We really should get some lunch. Eh Ron?"
"I see that I don't have your attention.." the man stated with a grin. He pulled out a gun and aimed it at Hego.
"Hey wait," Hego said, surprised.
The man pulled the trigger twice and two darts flew out, lodging into Hego's chest as he flexed and broke free of the ropes binding him. He staggered towards the man who in turn shot another dart into him. Hego dropped like a rock.
Shego jumped to her feet in surprise, pulling Ron up with her. "You're a dead man!" she screamed at the man, holding her nail file like a dagger. Ron just looked on in stunned silence.
"I see I have your attention now Miss Shego. My name is Ernest Vil. I was most fortunate to have your brother contact me with a little business venture. He was going to pay me a sum of one thousand dollars to pretend like I captured Team Go so his dear old sister would come rescue him. He figured if he could just get you on a mission that you would rejoin the team. A bit dense isn't he?"
"Yeah. What do you want?" Shego growled, visibly upset.
"I will get to that in a moment, allow me my time to gloat," the man said smirking. "I figured why just stop at the thousand dollars when I could have so much more. I know of a certain gentleman who would pay very well to have the complete collection of Team Go powers."
"Aviarius," Ron growled.
The man looked surprised, "Right you are. Ron was it? Since you did such a remarkable job of ruining my introduction here he is."
Aviarius, complete in his bird suit, walked into view, handing Ernest a silver briefcase. Ernest opened it and peeked inside, ensuring it was filled with the money he was offered. He then nodded and walked off of the screen as Aviarius turned towards Hego. He pulled out a crystal staff and pointed it at Hego. A beam shot out and engulfed the super hero, pulling a blue mist into the staff. Aviarius faced the camera, a look of glee on his face.
"For too long has Team Go been a thorn in my side. It ends today," Aviarius gloated. "You have one hour to surrender to me if you wish for your brothers to remain healthy."
"What do you want with Shego?" Ron snapped. "She isn't a part of Team Go anymore."
"I want her Team Go glow, silly boy. And I shall have it! Surrender quietly to me and I will allow you to leave safely. You don't really like having that green complexion anyways, do you?" Aviarius paused for a moment to take in the look of rage on Shego's face. He grinned as he continued, "You have one hour." With that he picked up Hego like a rag doll and walked off the screen.
Shego's eyes blazed with a fire that Ron had never seen before, even when she was fighting Kim. "I hope Hego's happy," she growled menacingly, staring at the blank screen.
"You think he's going to be happy about this?!" Ron exclaimed.
Shego look over to Ron. "He is getting me to go on a mission to rescue Team Go, isn't he?" she asked as she pulled him towards the elevator.
