Chapter Three: What Do We Do Now?

It was lunchtime, Kim and Ron where heading to the Cafeteria discussing what happened during passing period with Josh Mankey.

"So Monkey Boy was asking for your help?" Ron asked Kim. He wasn't very much buying Kim's story but continued to let Kim speak.

"Yeah… he wanted my help to get him another chance with Tara" Kim responded looking down.

"I thought she moved on with Jason?" Ron responded.

"Yeah and that's what I was telling him but he wouldn't listen" Kim said.

Before Ron had a chance to Kim any more question…

"Hey Guys!"

The teens turned their heads to see Monique trying to catch to them. Team Possible smiled at their friend when she finally reached them.

"Hey Monique" Kim and Ron said together.

"Kim! Don't me you forgot!?" Monique complained as she placed her hand on her hip." The test? Studying? Ring any bells?"

"Oh that's right! I've had so much on my mind M I've completely forgot" Kim said.

"I forgive you after the test, now c'mon!" Monique said "We need all the time we can get!"

"You're welcome to J.I too Ron" Monique said looking at Ron.

"J.I?" Kim and Ron asked together.

"Join in" Monique responded chuckling a bit looking their at confused faces.

"Thanks but no thanks ladies" Ron said flashing his goofy smile at them. "You girls go right ahead; I'll catch you guys later. I'ma go see if I spot Felix in the caf so we can shot some hoops"

"Here then" Kim said reaching for her Kimmunicator and handing it to Ron. "Let me know if Wade beeps kay? I don't want to get in trouble with Ms. Hatchet again if Wade calls while I'm in there."

"Sure thing KP" Ron said getting the Kimmunicator from Kim.

"Later Ron" Monique said with Kim waving at Ron as they walked towards the direction of the library.

Ron waved back until Kim wasn't in eye shot of him anymore.

This was the opportunity he was looking for. Without hesitation Ron pressed the button t the Kimmunicator to see Wade sipping his soda and eating Chinese food.

"Oh Hey Ron, What's up?" Wade said smiling at the blonde.

"Wade just the man I wanted to see!" Ron said.

Wade arced his eyebrow "Really? "

"Yes really" Ron said "Look I need ya to do me a major favor" Ron said nervously looking to see if Kim was around.

"What's the static?" Wade asked with an arc eyebrow.

Ron then started to explain how Kim was acting odd the past few days. Wade listened to Ron but wasn't sure what to make it of it.

"So do you want me to take a look at the security cameras from the school right when she was supposed to be heading to cheerleading practice two days ago?" Wade asked getting ready to type some commands on the computer

"If it isn't too much trouble" Ron responded smiling but the smile soon faded into his nervous expression. "I just worried ya know."

"You might just be being paranoid Ron" Wade said.

"Yeah I know that Wade but I just don't know what Kim is keeping from me and the whole Josh thing isn't helping me to be any less worried."

"Don't worry Ron. I'll call you when or if I find something" Wade said.

"You're the bomb Wade but remember let's keep it on the D.L."

"Sure thing Ron I'll keep you posted if I find anything" Wade said ending the call.

Ron put the Kimmunicator into his pocket and continued walking to the cafeteria.


At the Stoppable home:

Inside his room, Ron sat at his desk trying his best to catch up on some of his homework for school.

"It's Friday night and I'm stuck in my room doing homework. What's wrong with this picture?" Ron said to Rufus.

Rufus shrugged digging into his Naco.

"Man I wish Kim didn't have to babysit tonight" Ron said sinking into his chair.

"You know what buddy? I think it's time for a …"

"Ron!"

Ron looked towards the direction of his computer to see Wade on the screen. He saw Wade had a worried on his face making Ron feel less at ease.

"What's going on Wade? Did you find something?" Ron asked taking a seat in front of his computer.

"Oh yeah, Take a look at the security footage" Wade said typing on his keyboard.

Ron's computer screen showed the surveillance video near the Gym. On the screen there were Kim and Josh talking. Everything seemed normal enough that Ron didn't even notice no one was around the area. Without any notice a boy with a black jacket, with his hoodie covering his face, jumped from behind Kim. The boy quickly covers Kim's face with a piece of cloth grabbing Kim tight.

Ron blinked as continued to see the scene unfold itself. Ron could tell Kim was struggling and for a split second Kim was able to escape the boy's grip. When she did Josh came after her as well with a cloth in his hand covering her face. Kim struggled to break free but she was weak from the first contact to the chemical that she easily fell onto the school floor, completely unconscious. Josh and the boy quickly grabbed Kim from her hands and feet and left the scene.

Ron was utterly in shock. This wasn't what he expected to see. Ron's mind raced with questions

Why didn't Kim tell me? Why is she hiding this at all?!

Ron was beyond baffled. Kim was a strong, independent woman, who he saw fight off much worse than that. So why did this affect him so much? Why did he want to go find Kim and hug her and make her feel protected for once instead of the other way around? He didn't know rather to be angry at Kim for not telling him or rush to her side to tell her everything I going to be okay?

Ron was about to leave the room and go to Mankey's house when Wade broke his train of thought.

"Ron, what are we going to do now?" Wade asked quite concerned

"I don't know but we aren't going to do anything before I share some few words with Monkey boy. Just wait till I get my…"

Ron's phoned ringed making both Ron and Wade stare at the phone. Ron grabbed it and was about to silence it when he saw the caller I.D

Kim

Ron wasn't going to answer it but out of instinct he did.

"Ron's crib, how be this?" He said.

"Hi Ron" Kim said. "It's me Kim. Look the Tuner's came home a little earlier than expected tonight and it is pretty early to be home on a Friday night so...Wanna meet me a Bueno Nacho or something?"

Silence.

Ron didn't know what say to say to Kim. Does he say yes and go out with her after seeing what he saw? Will he able to act normal around her at that precise moment? Ron's mind raced with questions and scenarios.

"Ron?" Kim asked after a minute of silence. "Are you up for…?"

"Uh… Love too Kim…really I do it's just …uh …I've … got to…finish this homework. You know how Barkin is with me, giving me extra homework and so…eh…Call you later. Bye" Ron said hanging up the phone as quickly as he could.

After putting his phone back to the receiver, Wade and him both stared at each other with neither one knew what to do about this current sitch…
