Chapter 14 : End Game
Monkey Fist paced in the meeting room of Bueno Nacho HQ, in his hand was a black medallion he had found once while exploring ruins of the old Satsuma clans. It was a medallion that held within it awesome power…enough to make one a living god…but the bearer would lose whatever power they previously held and take on a transformation. It was known as the Dark Gorilla Power, an ancient dark version of the Mystical Monkey Power he so lusted after.
Drakken was a fool, one that would be dead before sunrise for his ignorance. Stoppable would come, he knew he would…his power now unleashed he had become a god in flesh. Fiske knew there was only two things that could withstand the power of a god…another god or a demon.
"If I cannot be a god…I shall be a demon!" Fiske said and placed the medallion around his neck. His screams and howls of pain filling the building as the dark power consumed his soul.
No sooner did Kim and Shego walk into Drakken's lair did they get ambushed by hundreds of his newly improved Syntho-Drones. Drakken stood up on the balcony with a look of sadistic glee on his features.
"Beat them within an inch of their lives!" Drakken shouted. "I want to leave their broken bodies for the Buffoon to grieve over."
"Don't think we'll go down that easy Drakken!" Shego roared and began blasting every drone in sight as Kim activated her battle suit.
"When we are done with your toys…your next!" Kim shouted as she punched through a drone.
The two women continued to battle the drones but for every one they got rid of two would take its place. To make matters worse some of the ones they had stopped were repairing themselves and getting back into the fight.
Kim and Shego now stood back to back, panting and exhausted from non-stop fighting, even Shego's glow was beginning to grow dim. "Kim…I just wanted you to know…it was fun while it lasted." Shego panted.
Kim nodded. "Yeah it was…I just wish I could have seen Ron once more." She said blocking an attack.
"Same here." Shego said before taking a blow to the gut. She clawed through it and blocked the next attack.
Kim took a nasty hit to the face causing blood to leak out the side of her mouth. "We can't give up!" Kim yelled.
"That's it my minions! Beat them! Hurt them! KILL THEM!!!" Drakken roared insanely.
The drones poured it on even heavier than before pummeling the girls from all sides giving neither a chance to protect themselves or counter attack. They were losing and they knew it, tears sprang to their eyes from pain and sadness. They were going to die…it was all over and there was nothing they could do to stop it.
Kim and Shego slumped to the floor, blood pouring from their noses and mouths. Their faces horribly bruised and swollen marring their beauty. To weak to stand anymore they welcomed the end they knew was soon to come…at least the pain would end.
An explosion roared from outside of the building causing everything and everyone inside to stop. The mangled remains of a Diablo burst through the large second story windows falling on several drones destroying them.
A golden tingling glow suddenly surrounded Kim and Shego healing their wounds and restoring their energy. Tears of joy sprang from their eyes as Ron slowly hovered down to the floor next to them. He looked at them and then sent a murderous glare at Drakken. He looked back at the girls, his face softening slightly.
"I told you I would get you both out of this…I am sorry it took so long for me to get here." He said in soft tones reserved for them only.
Turning back to Drakken rage replaced the kindness of his features leaving a chill to go up Drakken's spine. "You!" Ron growled.
Several drones attempted to attack him but were blown away as he let his power out full tilt. "You hurt them." Ron snarled at Drakken with a look that promised a slow painful death. "Never again, this ends…NOW!!!" Ron's voice cut through the area like a shot from a gun.
Drakken could only watch in utter horror as every single one of his precious drones was destroyed. Ron was moving at such speed that no human could ever hope to see him; all they could see was drones dropping like flies completely destroyed.
Ron then stopped in front of the awed girls; neither had ever seen him fight with such force and power. Secretly it thrilled and turned them on that Ron would do this for them. As frightening as he could be with his awesome power they knew he would never harm them. Shego was a bit jealous of Kim…she wished she could show Ron how much this meant to her…perhaps someday.
"DRAKKEN!!!!" Ron roared as the building shook in his rage and power. "Where are Kim's parents and my mother!?"
"Stay where you are freak or I will order my loyal Syntho-drones to kill them!" Drakken shouted in a mix of fear and insanity.
Ron arched his eyebrow and crossed his arms. "And just how do you expect to do that when I just destroyed ever damn drone you have?" Ron asked in deadly calm. "Besides…what makes you think I haven't already freed them?"
"You lie!" Drakken roared. "You couldn't have freed them!"
"Is that a fact?" A voice asked from behind him.
Drakken stiffened, the buffoon had just been down below him…but now his voice…it was behind him. The sound of three others rushing into the room was heard as Drakken slowly turned. Ellen Stoppable, James Possible and Anne Possible were standing a short distance from Ron who looked ready to tare Drakken apart with his bare hands.
Drakken gulped, this was not good, his invincible plan had been beaten and by the buffoon no less! How could this be!? Where, how did the buffoon get such freakish power?
"Kick his ass Ronald!" James cheered.
"James!" Both women yelled at him for his language, James cringed.
"Mom…get Mr. and Mrs. P out of here and back home. Wade has a safe ride waiting for all of you. We will be back after the trash has been taken out." Ron said in a tone that brooked no argument.
"Keep Kimmie safe Ronald…we trust you." James said as Ellen ushered them away from danger.
No sooner did they clear out of the building did a rumble come from the lower levels. Ron could sense a dark, evil power stirring and it was coming from Monkey Fist.
Drakken made for his escape but Ron back fisted him as he passed. Drakken landed several feet away yelling indignantly about undue violence. Ron ignored the minor problem at the moment and teleported back in front of the girls, he may have healed their wounds but their energy would still be low from the previous battle.
The far wall shattered outwards as Monkey Fist stomped out into the room. His body had grown enormous and resembled that of an angry gorilla, he had turned into a walking mountain of muscle and evil. Black energy was crackling off his massive mutated form and his eyes were crimson with black slit pupils. An insane, evil and hateful glint shown in his demonic eyes.
"The power!" He said in a much deeper, evil sounding voice. "The absolute POWER!" He let stray energy fly causing it to cut through the stone building like paper. He looked at Ron and sneered. "Now…I can have my revenge against you…you who have taken what should have been mine! Pathetic fool! Why be human when you could be a GOD!"
Ron's eyes narrowed as his own power suddenly pushed past what the girls had assumed was his limit. His body was ablaze with a multi-colored fire.
"I have no desire to be a god, I desire only one thing Fiske, and that is to protect the people I love." Ron stated firmly.
"Such sentimental garbage…it will be your undoing, for I have now gained a power to not only match yours but surpass it! I will be this worlds new god and I will shape it as I see fit." Fiske sneered.
"Over my dead body Fiske!" Ron growled. "Kim…Serena…go after Drakken, nail his ass to the wall and get out of here, I have an overblown ego to deflate painfully."
Kim pecked his cheek with a small smile. "I believe in you Ron, be careful." She said.
Shego copied Kim and pecked him on the cheek. "Give him a good swift kick in the ass for me okay?" She said.
Ron nodded. "Count on it…both of you."
With that the girls ran out of the danger zone and after Drakken, both had a score to settle with him and they intended to see the blue bastard pay in spades.
Ron's attention now on Fiske he dropped into a fighting stance. "Only one of us is leaving this place alive, Fiske, I hope you got burial insurance."
Fiske roared a laugh. "I would have waited a lifetime for this, it's over Stoppable! After I destroy you I will entertain myself with your women…make them scream as I drive them to the heights of pleasure and pain and them…I will kill them!"
Ron smirked. "Nice try Fiske, but I'm not biting. Now…BRING IT!" Ron barked. "This really sucks…" Ron added with a grumble.
It didn't take long for Kim and Shego to catch up to Drakken. He had ran into his main control room and smashed the controls, now the Diablo's could not be signaled to stop, the only way to stop them now was to destroy the signal tower.
"Now nothing can stop my army from destroying civilization!" Drakken ranted.
"I think you left out some factors Doc Dipstick." Shego taunted from behind.
"Me, Shego and of course Ron." Kim added cracking her knuckles. "Ready for some payback Serena?" She asked.
Shego grinned at Drakken who was now backpedaling for safety. "You better believe it Kimmie, lets clean his clock, Ronnie's got enough to handle with the monkey freak."
Kim grinned. "I so agree."
The two women began stalking towards Drakken. But the insane blue skinned man pulled out a remote and pushed the button, an insane grin crossed his features. "I still win!" Drakken laughed.
"What did you just do!?" Shego asked as red lights began flashing.
"Self destruct…typical." Kim added dryly.
"Atomic warhead activated…base destruction in ten minutes." The computer droned.
"An atomic warhead!?!" Kim exclaimed.
"Ten minutes!" Shego added. "You IDIOT! None of us can out run that in such a short amount of time!"
"It is a small warhead traitor, it will only destroy everything in a two mile radius. The fallout however could poison millions!" He laughed.
At the same time and in the same motion Shego and Kim both darted forward and socked Drakken as hard as they could sending several of his teeth flying.
"I can't believe I ever worked for a monster like you!" Shego screamed at him and punched him once more for good measure.
Kim was about to add something when Ron's voice entered their minds. KP, Serena…get the hell outta here. I'll handle Fiske and then stop the bomb. Don't argue…just go, I'll catch up as soon as I'm done. His voice sounded strained but confident.
Kim looked at Shego who gave a slight nod. "If anyone can stop this…it's Ron…let's go." She knew Kim didn't want to leave, hell she wished she could take Ron's place but they both knew he was the only one who could handle this.
"Right, lets grab the brainless wonder and get the hell out of here." Kim said half tempted to just leave Drakken so he could go up with the place.
Shego hefted Drakken's beaten form up and glared at him. "If Ron doesn't make it out of this…I will kill you myself." Shego spat.
"If I leave anything left." Kim added with a growl as the two women roughly dragged the deranged madman out of the building.
Now there wasn't a whole lot that could harm, hurt or damage Ron for the rest of his life. He was pretty sure he could stop the warhead by shielding it or something; he was immune to radiation after all. The explosion might be enough to incinerate him though but it was a chance he had to take. Fiske on the other hand had dark powers…and his one true weakness was dark power or abnormal power.
Ron stood several feet from Fiske, his battle suit was shredded in most places, over half the top was gone. Ron had several nasty black burns on his arms and long bleeding claw marks on his torso. Blood was dribbling out the corner of his mouth and his right eye was swelling shut. Not even his power was limitless, his body could grow tired and from all the fighting he had been doing he was starting to get weak.
"Your looking a bit peaked Stoppable." Fiske's demonic voice snarled happily. "Having that much power is a burden isn't it boy."
Ron glared at Fiske, he to looked a bit worked over but not as bad as Ron did…the bastards dark power had taken control of him, made him immune to pain.
"Power is not a burden, merely a tool, the burden comes from how one uses that power." Ron said in dead calm.
Fiske didn't like the answer so he shot forward and plowed him and Ron both through several floors until they were in the basement. The floor had cratered where Fiske pushed Ron into it trying to bury him in the concrete.
Ron growled in anger and pain, his fist shot up and he nailed Fiske in the gut with enough force to knock the large mutant off of him. Prying himself loose from the cement he stood back up, he then saw the warhead sitting in the center of the room.
His eyes widened slightly as a plan came to him. As it was right now Fiske was stronger than him. Taking a closer look at the warhead as he dodged black energy attacks Ron noticed that Drakken had once again screwed up…it was an Anti-Nuclear warhead. A prototype the government had been creating to have the same devastating effect of a small nuke but with none of the harmful long term effects.
Ron jumped over Fiske and back kicked him in the head as Fiske nailed him with a massive arm sending him skidding across the room. "Damn…you just don't give up ya steroid enhanced freak show." Ron grumbled.
'If I can time this just right I might be able to survive the blast.' Ron thought, the time still had four minutes left to go…he needed it to blow quicker.
Ron quickly summoned all the power he had left and lunged at Fiske. Ron's fists became deadly blurs as he began pummeling the maniacal mutant. One thrust kick to the gut and an uppercut later Ron grabbed Fiske and tossed him on top of the warhead as he let his power go beyond his usual limits.
Fiske shook his head dazed from the beat down he had just gotten from Stoppable. Snarling he looked over at his enemy to see him alight with raw energy, it almost looked as if his body was being consumed by a multi-hued and roaring fire.
"Hey! Monty ol boy! You wanted to be the first Monkey Master in space right." Ron said as his power began condensing around his fists.
Fiske's demonic eyes widened in fear as he looked down…it was Drakken's warhead…he was right on top of it!
"Hope you remember the moon walk asshole!" Ron snarled.
A bright flash lit up the basement as Fiske watched, to terrified to move, as a beam of pure mystical energy raced at him almost as if in slow motion. "NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" Fiske roared.
Finding Drakken's hover car outside, Kim and Shego tied the moron up and got into it. They quickly drove out to the safe zone, how ironic that Drakken had left the distance safety programmed into his hover car…and convenient for them. The Geiger counter on the hover car had yet to pick up any radiation so they were safe, thankfully Drakken was smart enough to have a shield installed that would protect them.
They were shocked when they saw the explosion in the distance light up the night sky like a roman candle. The warhead had gone off four minutes early!
Panicked and scared for Ron they didn't bother to notice the Geiger counter still read negative on radiation as they raced back towards the inferno that was Bueno Nacho HQ.
Landing fifty feet from the building they could feel the intense heat pouring off from it as fire continued to rise into the night sky. They got out but it was useless…they couldn't get close enough to check and see if Ron was there.
Drakken crawled out of the hover car, a grin crossed his features as he noticed his tower was still in place, the Diablo's were still functional!
"I win! I WIN!!!!" Drakken cried out. "The buffoon is DEAD! I've WON! You finally lost Kimberly Anne Possible and it has cost you dearly!" Drakken said as insane tears of mirth and joy streamed down his face.
His laughter was cut off as a loud rumble shook the area. "Damn warhead started an earthquake!" Drakken shouted angrily.
Shego's eyes widened. "NO! Kimmie look!" She exclaimed.
Both women gasped as the flames consuming the building began to swirl and form snake-like jets that began going into the center of the inferno.
"Wha…what is that!?!" Drakken asked in terror as the fire grew smaller and more condensed.
"Here's a hint!" A familiar voice growled and suddenly a massive pillar of fire shot up into the sky as stones began rising off the ground along with scorched concrete.
The pillar vanished leaving only a few small fires burning the rubble in the crater. A familiar figure began walking slowly out of the devastation. Ron Stoppable had done the impossible…he had survived a blast at ground zero and used his powers to create a shield of fire that would protect him while the Demonic Monkey Fist was incinerated.
Ron silently held out his hand and the Lotus blade appeared in a flash of blue light. He walked up to the massive tower that served as the main controller for all the Diablo battle droids world wide. Exhaling a breath Ron struck the tower and then dismissed his blade. As he began walking away the tower began sliding off a cut so clean it was perfect, it slid until it finally toppled over onto the remains of the Bueno Nacho headquarters.
He walked up next to the girls who were looking at him in awe and happiness at seeing him in one piece…even if he was ruffed up quite a bit.
"Game over Drakken, you lose." Ron said in a calm, stern voice.
Drakken grew quiet and began mumbling to himself as he curled up in the fetal position occasionally sucking his thumb. Ron shook his head in pity, it was a shame that someone could let themselves go this bad.
Putting a tired arm around Kim and Shego, Ron sighed. "It's over…for now. So, you ladies want to get outta here before the boys in blue show up to take Doc Dumdum to the loony bin?" He asked with a tired smile, he could hear police sirens in the distance.
"Are you alright? You look like you've been to hell and back." Shego asked. Though she could tell his wounds were already healing, what was once a swelled eye was just bruised now and his cuts had stopped bleeding.
"I'll be fine Serena, a little drained from all the fighting, but I can manage, wanna go for a walk or something?" He asked. "I'll be back at full power by morning so no worries."
Kim and Shego grinned at eachother. "Then I think we better hurry."
Ron still a bit winded and slightly confused. "Hurry…where to?"
"You'll see!" Both giggled in unison. Ron had a feeling it was going to be a loooong night.
The entire gym was huddled around the portable TV Barkin had brought out so they could watch the news cast. Each student was excitedly waiting to see what had happened.
"And so these Diablo robots have stopped their destruction world wide and have reverted back into harmless toys. The place where the signal was coming from, Bueno Nacho HQ, located in Colorado, was destroyed in an explosion. Police arrived on the scene to find the smoldering remains of the building, the notorious criminal Dr Drakken muttering to himself in fear, the demented doctor was quoted say that a Ron Stoppable had foiled his plans."
"According to our sources, Ron Stoppable is none other than Teen Hero Kim Possible's side kick. What could have happened to force a side kick to save us all from the diabolical plans of Dr Drakken? We will bring you more when and if it develops."
"Geeze…not even a thank you." Brick frowned.
"Relax buddy, Ron doesn't do this for thanks, you know that." Josh stated.
Several of the others nodded, they knew Ron well enough that they knew he only did what he had to do to keep people safe from harm.
At that moment the gym doors banged open, everyone looked over to see none other than Ron Stoppable, in a sharp black Tux and blue shirt and tie being dragged into the room by a gusto Kim Possible and Shego, both in their earlier dresses. To many students amazement and Barkin's utter amusement, both girls had their hand in his.
"Way to go Stoppable!" Brick cheered.
Ron turned a nice shade of red as the entire gym began cheering for him and the girls. Shego and Kim blushed as well, for Serena…it was a dream come true…she was finally accepted somewhere and had friends…real friends.
Barkin happily started the music back up as couples began dancing happily. The world was safe once again and their heroes had returned safely.
Though Ron was nervous he wanted to dance with Kim, but he didn't want to leave Serena out it wouldn't be fair to her. "Ummm…you ladies want to…uhh…take turns dancing?" He asked cautiously.
To his surprise they both smiled and squeezed his hands. Ron was a bit surprised when Kim let Shego haul him out onto the dance floor first. But he smiled never the less and wrapped his arms around the green skinned beauty. Shego snuggled up to him as they danced and Ron noticed, to his annoyance, Kim was giggling at his nervousness.
"I want to thank you for saving me Ron, you've given me a new chance at life." Shego said.
Ron gave an embarrassed smile. "Don't thank me Serena, I only di……MMMPH!!!!"
His was therefore cut off as Shego leaned up and proceeded to shove her tongue down his throat. She kissed him with such feeling and passion that it raised his body temperature several hundred degrees and made the others stop and gawk. Kim for her part was bent over at the punch table with one arm resting on it and the other clutching her stomach as she laughed…long and loud. Several of the other girls felt a bit jealous while the others suddenly thought their panties were on fire.
"Oh Ronnie…you are good." Shego purred and sauntered off leaving Ron standing there wide eyed and beetroot.
Kim still sniggering sauntered up to her boyfriend. It didn't bother her at all that Shego kissed Ron, his reaction to it was far to amusing. A smile crossed her lips as her favorite romance song began playing, "Could it be" by Christie Carlson Romano.
Ron snapped out of his stupor and welcomed Kim into his arms. Both swaying as the soft music filled the room.
Monique walked up to Shego with a smile on her face. "So…there something I should know about between you three?" She asked.
Shego chuckled. "No…don't think so, Kimmie and I just like to tease Ron, he's so cute when he gets flustered."
Monique nodded. "Yeah he is." Brick walked up to her and offered a dance, she smiled and accepted.
Kim and Ron continued to dance as if no one else was around and finally they kissed. At long last they could be the couple they wanted to be and have no more doubts or fears.
The End
