Chapter Six
New Bonds
The team stood in the cemetery in Middleton and watched as the coffins were sat over the holes they were going to be buried in. They were all dressed in black clothes and they all seemed to show their pain. Even Bonnie who is known as the queen of mean looked like she was hurting. Seth had trimmed up his goatee and had his black hair trimmed up enough that it covered his scar. He listened to the priest as he glanced across the way to Miller and Director Betty who had attended the funeral as well.
"Ashes to ashes dust to dust" The priest said looking around at the people around the coffins.
Seth's attention was caught when a hand gently took his causing him to look to his left. Nikki stood there looking back at him with tears on her face and Seth noticed that everyone was holding hands. It was their way of saying they were a team and this wasn't going to break them up. Seth looked to his right at Shego who had a few tears slipping from her eyes. He reached over and took her hand, and she looked at him and then back to the coffins.
A group of trumpets started playing Amazing Grace and two men began to fold the flags that were over the coffins. After they were done seven men stood ready with their rifles and began to fire the guns. When the guns fired the first time everyone flinched at the loud cracks of the rifles. Kim closed her eyes as the weapons fired and found herself back to that day again. The rifles cracked again and she snapped back to normal and watched as the coffins were slowly lowered in the ground. Kim looked on as the coffins disappeared from sight and the last gun fired.
She looked over to the rest of the team as they began to walk away to the cars that waited for them. They had planed for them all to go to the bar and have a few drinks in honor of their fallen team members. They climbed into cars and drove off towards a bar down the road. They all walked in and walked up to the bar and Seth looked down the line as the bartender walked up. The woman behind the counter looked at everyone and then to Seth who was the only one who looked at her.
"What will it be?" She asked.
"A round of Jack Daniels for everyone" Seth said as he moved his hand down the bar at everyone. The bartender nodded and then picked up ten shot glasses and sat them on the bar. Turning around she grabbed the half empty bottle of whiskey and brought it back. She began to pour the shots for everyone and then passed them around. She nodded and then walked back to do her job. Everyone looked down to Kim as she grabbed the small glass and looked at everyone. A lone tear came down her face, and she knew she needed to say something.
"The past six weeks we have all become family, and two members of the family have been taken from us. That will not go unpunished, we will end this war and kill everyone of those bastards. Their deaths won't be in vein…that fucking simple" Kim said raising the glass. No one said anything, instead they all raised their glasses and nodded in agreement with her. They all kicked back the shot and sat the glasses back down. Kim looked over to Shego who wanted them to go back to her apartment.
"Listen up everyone, we are heading back to the base tomorrow. If some of you don't come back with us we won't hold it against you" Kim said looking at everyone.
"Kim, we're in it till the end, that simple. This time it's become personal for all of us, we will be there" Clayton said as he downed another shot.
Everyone nodded in agreement with what he told her. She nodded back and left the bar with Shego to go home. Ron and Bonnie left deciding to go for a walk together, as did Clayton and Jordan. Nikki, Rachel, Seth, and Joe were the only ones to stay at the bar together. They moved over to a table and while they did Nikki picked up four beers. She carried them back to the table and passed them around to everyone. Seth took his and took a quick sip of it, as he took out a pack of cigarettes and took one out of it. He then passed one to Joe who took it and then offered some to the girls and neither of them took any.
"Well, are we going to bring Duff back alive?" Rachel finally asked breaking the silence of the group.
"I'm not sure, he gives me a good enough reason to, I'll put two in his chest and one in his head" Seth said as he took a sip of his beer.
"Well Miller wants him alive" Nikki said looking at the beer in her hand.
"So what if Seth's dad has a problem with it…fuck him" Joe said causing Seth to look at him.
"Miller is your father?" Rachel asked looking at Seth who took a drag on his cigarette and nodded. "Were you ever going to tell us?" she asked and watched as Seth just shook his head. "Why not?"
"Because when I was sixteen I left home after my mother died. He didn't even register me as a missing child. I've been living on my own for six years…well until I met Abigail at twenty" Seth talked as he looked at Rachel.
"Why didn't he ever go looking for you?" Rachel asked feeling a wave of pity come over her.
"I don't know maybe he thought I was better off on my own. Although he was more into his job then his own damn family" Seth said as he pushed back the pain.
"I was the last person he came to see before he left, since then we had phone calls back and forth, that was until I went to jail and then he got me out of jail" Joe said as he glanced over at Seth.
"So why were you in jail?" Nikki asked looking at him.
"I killed fifteen people, I used to be a serial killer" Joe said taking a sip of his beer and looking around at everyone. Rachel and Nikki looked at each other and then back to Joe who smiled at them. "Don't worry I wouldn't hurt you two."
"Why not?" Rachel asked some fear laced in her voice.
"Because I only killed people who were rapist and child molesters, people who deserved to die. When I went to jail I figured that I would be in fights all the time. Well turns out even the most hardened criminal respected me because I killed rapist and molesters. Then our dear friend Seth here got me out of jail so I could go to war" Joe explained as he finished his beer.
Seth noticed everyone was out of beer so he lifted his bottle up and held up four fingers. The bartender nodded and began to gather up their drinks, and then carry them over to them. Seth nodded to the bartender who agreed to bill him at the end of the night. They all took a drink and happened to glance up at the TV. There was a live report coming out of Europe as a battle had erupted in a town in Spain. Seth couldn't help but let a small smile crawl across his face. He wasn't smiling about the fact that the town was being destroyed,. He smiled at the fact that they had wiped out all of Drakken's forces in North and South America.
"Rachel, I do believe it's your turn to share?" Joe said looking to the woman.
"What do you want to know?" She asked looking at everyone.
"How about what had happened between you and Shego?" Seth said taking a sip of his beer.
"Not something I really like to talk about, but since we are all sharing I will" She said looking down at her beer. "We had met in collage at WVU where we were roommates. We hit it off really fast and before we knew it we were dating and in love. We were each other's first so it meant a lot to each other" Rachel started explaining her story.
"Wait, wait can you go into detail on that" Joe said with a chuckle trying to lighten the mood. Suddenly Seth's hand shot out and he smacked Joe in the back of the head, prompting a yelp from Joe and both of the girls laughed.
"What the hell you thinking?" Seth said shaking his head.
"Oh like you didn't want to know" Joe quickly retorted.
"I…uh…that's beside the point, continue please" Seth said as he blushed and then gestured to Rachel.
Rachel had been laughing after seeing this display between the two men in front of her. After catching her breath she looked over to Nikki who was laughing just as hard. Both had realized that this sharing idea had gotten their minds off of the deaths. She looked back at Joe and Seth who were waiting for her to continue. "As I was saying, well about the second year of collage I noticed something about her. She was changing, becoming more violent, more rough in bed…Joe shut up" She explained quickly shutting Joe up as he raised his hand to say something. She watched as his mouth closed and he grabbed his beer quickly silencing himself.
"One day she took a job as a thief and well she liked it far to much. I got contracted by GJ to bring her down, well I had helped her instead. She then burned me and then the next time I saw her was when I landed at the base." Rachel explained as took a drink of her beer.
"Damn sorry Rachel" Nikki said reaching out and rubbing her back gently.
"It's ok, it's your turn" Rachel said looking at her.
"I know one, when Abigail and I first met Seth for the first real time" Nikki said looking around. She heard Seth grumble and then order another beer for himself. She snickered when she heard him grumble and took a drink from his new beer.
"As you can see from Seth's face it's going to be a good one" Nikki started with a chuckle. "Well Abigail had told me about a man named Seth who had just saved her life. The two of them had agreed to meet each other at a restaurant the next day and she asked me to come just to make sure he was a good man. So I figured what the hell I'd go. When I first saw him I had to laugh, and I laughed so hard. Back then he had longer hair, and he actually had it up in a pony tail. He has that goatee now which is one hell of a lot better then that pencil thin beard and mustache he had.
"Well at first I didn't quite trust him, I thought he was cute but he was still a guy. Well it turned out Abigail had taken quite a shine to him, and he to her. The next day when I went to wake Abigail up for classes, I found them both asleep in her bed. Turns out our dear Seth here is quite the gentleman because all they did was spoon, with clothes on. So it proved to me he was a good man, little did we know he was a thief and a hacker until he got us a great party. Well ain't much more then that so how about a shot for everyone" Nikki talked and everyone cheered at her idea for another shot, and went and got a new drink.

Kim laid in Shego's bed with her back to Shego and she cried lightly as she stared at the wall. She had seen people get killed in battles but this time the people who had died were close to her. This time it affected her deeply and now all she could see were their faces. She brushed her eyes clearing the tears from her eyes as Shego rolled over. Kim felt the soft touch of Shego drawing small circles on Kim's bare back. Soon Shego began to gently kiss her way down Kim's back to the small of her back. She then noticed that Kim wasn't reacting to her advances so she gently climbed onto the redhead's back and rested her chin on Kim's shoulder.
She gently kissed Kim's neck and rubbed her hands gently down her arms. Her eyes locked onto the pillow under Kim's head and she noticed it was wet. She pulled her head back and looked down at Kim as she rolled off of her. Kim did nothing except lay on her pillow. Suddenly Shego rolled her over and pulled her into a tight embrace. The sudden show of affection caused Kim's eyes to water even harder. She wrapped her arms around Shego and held on tightly as she began to cry. Shego gently rubbed her back and held on to her lover to comfort her.
"I couldn't do anything to save them" Kim sobbed into Shego's skin.
"It's not your fault babe, none of us knew about the dinosaurs or that he would be ready for us. Everyone knew the risk of fighting in this war" Shego said trying to calm Kim down.
"It is my fault, I should have known he would have something up his sleeve" Kim sobbed more as she clutched tightly onto Shego.
"These things happen, it's his fault that they are dead…that simple. He had that shit, he had the giant lizards, and he had the ape army. He got what he deserved when Ron splattered his brains all over the floor. We can't be ready for everything that comes our way there are going to be trials and tribulations along the way, that's war. In war there are causalities" Shego said looking at her.
Kim looked at her and cried hard as she thought about what Shego had told her. Every word that Shego had spoke was the truth and she knew it. She lowered her head and rested her head on Shego's breast and cried harder as Shego held onto her. Shego didn't let Kim see her tear up either. She too was hurting from the sudden deaths of the two teammates. She understood now how Seth had felt when seven members of the team got wounded.
She began to think of the look on Ron's face when he had killed Monkey Fist. She could see that it was just a temporary relief for the death of Yori. She also recognized the look of the man who liked killing and she could see that Ron loved it. Shego laid her and Kim down and held onto her as she pulled a blanket over them. She rested her head down on the crown on Kim's head and slowly closed her eyes. Both of them were wrapped in pain but just holding onto one another was enough to break the pain.

Ron and Bonnie were walking though the park together not saying a word to one another. Bonnie could see that Ron was hurting and hurting hard. She wanted to walk with Ron but she had no idea what she wanted to say to him. All through school she had treated him like shit and now she knew it was wrong. She could see now that she was wrong in treating him like that and she needed to say it. Reaching out she grabbed a hold of Ron's hand and stopped him from getting to far away from her. He looked back at her and she saw the pain in his eyes.
"What is it Bonnie?" he simply asked looking at her.
"I'm sorry Ron, for everything. For the death of Yori, and Barken as well as how I treated you during high school" Bonnie said in a low voice as she lowered her head.
"It's whatever" Ron said pulling his hand away and walking away.
"No it's not, you lost your girlfriend, and I treated you like a piece of shit in school" Bonnie said darting forward and stopping in front of Ron stopping him.
"That was school, this is real fucking life and war. PEOPLE FUCKING DIE" Ron roared at her as he grabbed Bonnie and pushed her up against a tree. His eyes were full of pain and hurt as he stared at Bonnie.
She wasn't afraid of Ron's sudden outburst or his actions that hurt her slightly. She looked at him and then reached up and rubbed his cheeks with her hands. He looked at her and for a few seconds he seemed to calm down but then he released her and stared at her. Bonnie found herself reaching forward and wanting to kiss Ron. This however didn't go unnoticed by Ron. He pushed her back and started walking away from her deeper into the moonlit park.
"Ron wait…I'm sorry" Bonnie called after him as she snapped back to normal.
"Just stay the fuck away from me" He growled back at her.
She stopped for a few seconds and looked as he got further away from her. She let out a sigh, feeling bad for what she had just tried to do. She quickly took off and ran after Ron who had disappeared into the park. She walked around and after a little bit she finally found Ron sitting on a swing. She looked at him as he had his head lowered into his hands. She walked over slowly and sat down on the swing next to Ron who just glanced over to her. He let out a sigh and looked back down at his hands. She looked at him and then slowly reached her hand out and began to rub his shoulder.
"Why the hell do you all of a sudden care?" Ron ask not looking back up at her.
"Because I see now how much pain you are in, and well…" She never finished the sentence because she could feel herself flush.
"Well what?" Ron said looking over to her.
"Figure it out Ron, think about what I tried to do" Bonnie said turning her face away from Ron as he looked at her.
Ron just looked over at Bonnie as her hair hung loosely over her face, not showing her features. Slowly he reached over and brushed the hair back and up behind her ear. He watched as a lone tear came down from her left eye and drip off her jaw as she slowly looked at him. Ron could tell she was truly hurting for how she had treated him and the loss of Yori and Barken. "It's ok, I forgive you for everything" he said softly looking at her.
She slowly reached up and stroked the side of his face and watched as he looked at her. Slowly they both closed the gap between each other until their noses touched. Slowly Bonnie finished moving closer to Ron and placed her lips to his. Their lips moved as one as Bonnie reached up and cupped Ron's cheeks in her hands. Suddenly Ron pulled away and looked away pain evident in his face. Slowly he turned and looked at Bonnie who was looking at him and seemed to be feeling bad.
"After the war, then we'll make it work" Ron said looking at her.
"Ok I can wait" Bonnie said as she reached out and took Ron's hand in her hand.

Jordan and Clayton sat on a dock looking out across the lake. Jordan took a sip on his beer and looked over at Clayton. Clayton glanced back at him and then looked out across the shimmering water of the lake. Ever since he and Jordan had met he had felt a bond with the man. It almost seemed like he was someone who had been lost to him for a long time. He glanced back at Jordan who looked at him.
"Got to ask you something?" Clayton asked as he finished his beer.
"Sup?" Jordan asked as he passed him another beer.
"You're from Go City right?" Clayton said as he took a sip of his new beer.
"Yeah, why?" Jordan asked with a confused look on his face.
"Because a long time ago when I was two years old I left Go City" Clayton answered.
"Really…that's strange my father and mother split when I was four, I had a two year old brother. My father took my younger brother and I never saw either of them again" Jordan said glancing down at the beer in his hands. He could remember everything that happened, and it played out in his mind again.
"I remember having an older brother, just nothing else" Clayton said looking back at him.
"What happened?" Jordan asked looking back at him.
"The same thing that happened to you" Clayton said as he looked back out across the water.
"You don't think?" Jordan asked still looking at him.
"Only one way to find out" Clayton said getting up.
Jordan quickly got up and followed after Clayton as they walked off of the dock. They moved through the streets of the city with Clayton leading the way. They walked down to the downtown of Middleton and soon Clayton stopped in front of a house. The lights were out and Clayton opened the gate to the front yard of the house. He walked up and knocked on the door loudly causing a light up stairs to turn on. He could hear though the wooden door the sound of feet falling on the wooden floor inside. Soon the door opened and they saw a man standing there looking at them both.
"Clayton?" The man said in a sleepy tone.
"Hey dad, I…well we wanted to ask you something" Clayton said motioning to Jordan.
The man looked past Clayton to Jordan who was standing at the bottom of the porch. His eyes grew wide and he walked past Clayton down to Jordan who just looked at him. He reached out slowly and touched Jordan's face and then slowly placed both of his hands on Jordan's shoulders. Suddenly the man pulled Jordan into a tight embrace holding onto him. "I've missed you so much Jordan" the man said holding onto him.
"Well I guess that answers that" Jordan said with a slight chuckle.
"Yes it does, I guess we are brothers after all" Clayton said looking down at him.

Miller sat in his office at the base waiting for the team to come back. They were due back around that afternoon, and then they were going to have to leave again that night. He remembered the looks on everyone's faces at the funeral. Each and everyone of them were wrapped in pain and guilt. He had been advised by Betty that he should disband the team because they were now all emotionally compromised. He knew one thing with or without him giving them missions they would still fight the war. He had figured that with their emotions running wild they would get more results. Despite the fact that other nations were breathing down his neck, and getting pressure from the President he was still behind them.
He glanced up as a man came in and let him know that the transport plane was on approach. He nodded and grabbed one of his cigars and stood up and walked out of the room. As he walked down the hall he struck a match on the wall and lit his cigar. He opened the door that led outside and looked to the east to see the C-17 coming in low. The plane touched down and he looked out across the runway as it came to a stop and the back opened.
The team walked out of the back of the plane and started walking towards him. Miller noticed that their walk and they way they carried themselves had changed dramatically. He could see how they were carrying themselves was that of people who were out for blood. This was now a team out for a vengeful fight and nothing was going to stop them from getting it. They all walked up to him and stopped as Kim, Ron, Shego, and Seth walked up to be in front of the team and they looked at him. He puffed out the smoke of his cigar and looked at the team in front of him. "Welcome back Mad Dogs" he said with a smile.
"Hello Miller" Kim said.
"Take sometime to relax you guys will be leaving for Scotland around ten tonight" Miller said looking at them.
"Got it" Kim said with a nod and the team mover to the hanger.

In Miami Florida it was ten at night on the eastern seaboard and people were going to sleep for the night. Troops moved through the city doing what they could to repair many of the buildings. In the bay Coastguard cutters, alongside Navy destroyers, Cruisers, and Aircraft Carriers patrolled the surrounding waters. A small group of destroyers were on their way back to join the rest of the fleet that patrolled the waters. The captain of one stood on the bridge of the ship and looked out across the gulf at some oil rigs. He looked over at some of the men on the great ship and they all seemed just as tired as he was.
Suddenly the hull shuddered and the ship came to a stop in the ocean. He turned and looked at his first mate who was at a loss for words as to what just happened. He walked outside and looked over the railing down into the water below. There was a soft lime green glow coming out of the water and it shined through the water lighting his face up. He watched as it grew closer and closer to the ship and he questioned what it could possibly be. Suddenly his answer came quickly, causing the man's eyes to grow wide.
A powerful plasma beam came out of the water and the ship was suddenly cut the ship in half. He gripped a hold of the railing as the front half of the ship tipped backwards into the water. He glanced back as a Diablo bot raised out of the water and as it did it fired at other ships near by the one it destroyed. Fireballs began to shoot high in the sky as each ship got destroyed by the robot. The captain looked off into the distance and saw almost a hundred Diablo Bots flying along side transport planes. He knew what was going on, Drakken was trying one last chance at taking the States back he was trying to secure a beachhead in Miami.
"HELMSMAN RAIDO THE FLEET AND ALERT THEM OF THE INCOMING THREAT" He roared back into the bridge that was now fully vertical.
"AYE AYE SIR" The crewmember yelled back to him. The crewman reached up and grabbed the dangling radio in front of him. "MAYDAY, MAYDAY, MAYDAY THIS IS THE USS. RED MIST WE ARE SINKING AFTER COMING UNDER ATTACK FROM A DIABLO BOT. THERE IS AN INCOMING HOSTEL ATTACK FORCE COMING IN FROM THE SOUTH. I SAY AGAIN HOSTEL ATTACK FORCE COMING IN FROM THE SOUTH."
The captain looked out to the rest of the fleet as the cannons on the ship began firing at the incoming force. The massive slugs found some of their targets just as fighter jets took off and flew towards the incoming threat. Dog fights began to break out as the Diablo bots began to touch down in the city. He began to hear the sounds of a battle erupting on the streets of the city. The last glimpse he caught before being sucked under with the ship was of a rail gun firing and cutting two Diablo bots in half.

Miller sat at his desk reading over papers of the battles in Europe and Asia. Suddenly his door busted open and he looked up as a man ran in and slapped some papers down on his desk. He looked at them and read them over closely and looked back up at the man who just nodded. Pushing himself back away from the desk he quickly got up and stormed through the halls. The team didn't leave for another hour and now he had to split the team up. The report he had just read was from one hour ago and Miami was under attack. He walked outside and over to the hanger and walked in to see everyone getting ready.
"MAD DOGS LISTEN UP" he roared getting everyone's attention. "Miami is under attack as we speak, so I have chosen to split the team up. Ron, Bonnie, Nikki, Rachel, and Clayton you five will be going to Miami to aid the troops in that fight. Kim, Shego, Seth, Joe, and Jordan you five will be going to Scotland to secure Duff Killigan. I want him alive, bring him back no fuck ups. You all leave in ten."
Kim watched as Miller seemed to look at her and then left them alone. Kim looked down at Seth, Shego, Jordan, and Joe. As soon as they heard these words come from Miller they all began rushing around. She took a few seconds to walk over to Ron who walked over to her. "Be careful Ron" she said as she gave him a hug.
"You too KP" Ron said.
They broke the hug and started walking out onto the runway. They looked out to see a C-17 waiting for Kim and her team. The second plane was an AC-130, an attack troop transport plane. This one was to take Ron and his team to Miami where they could aid the army. The teams looked at each other and they all hugged one another before walking to their planes. Fighter jets screamed down the runway as the transport planes taxied onto the runway. The C-17 took off first and Kim and her team were strapped in as one of the crewmembers sat across from them. "Hey what's the in-flight movie on this flight" Jordan said looking at the man as the plane took off.
"It's called Time To Kick Ass" The man said looking over at him.
"I love the title, do we get peanuts" Jordan called back to him.
"Make you a deal, you get Duff, I'll buy as many peanuts as you can stomach" The crewmember said with a laugh.
The C-17 was over the northern Atlantic ocean flying towards the shores of Scotland. Seth stood over his weapons looking them over and checking all of them quickly to make sure they were in top working order. He picked up a silencer and attached it to his M-4 that had a red dot sight on the top of it. He then picked up his Beretta 9mm and attached a silencer to it as well. After he had it equipped with a silencer he slid it into his thigh holster. He then picked up a bowie knife and slid it into his sheath for the knife. He reached over and grabbed his parachute and put it on and then clipped the M-4 to his side.
He turned and looked to see everyone else getting ready like he was. He walked over to Kim who was standing next to Shego. Kim looked up at him as Joe and Jordan walked over to join them. Seth turned and looked to Joe who looked back at him. Kim got up and walked over to another table with a map of the area around Duff's castle.
"The R.A.F will pick us up after we are done catching Duff" Kim said looking around at everyone. "We will drop in and land at least four hundred yards from his castle. Once there we will grapple our way up and sneak in. Duff has no robots or henchmen so we won't have much to fight. Just a short fat Scottish man who has an obsession with golf. Joe you will stay outside of the castle and wait for us, if something goes wrong you can help us" Kim explained everything to the other four.
"Attention Mad Dogs, drop zone in twenty minutes" The pilot's voice came over the intercom.
Kim heard this and nodded at everyone who walked over to the back of the plane. She slapped the button on the inside wall of the plane and the back door opened. She watched as the red light shined bright as the team walked up to the hatch. They looked down as the trees were almost half a mile below them. Suddenly the light turned green and everyone jumped out of the plane. The wind whipped by them as they free fell to the ground below. Kim gripped her rip cord and pulled it as the rest of the team did the same.
They slowly drifted down into a meadow about five hundred away from the castle. Seth and Jordan were the first to land and as they did they quickly unhooked their parachutes. Their guns quickly raised and the lasers cut through the morning darkness of the woods. Soon they heard the sound of Kim, Shego, and Joe landing behind them. Seth felt a hand pat him on the shoulder and he glanced back to Kim. They stood up and started off towards the looming castle that was blocking the moon.
They moved closer until they were below the castle. They glanced back at Joe who nodded and then disappeared back into dark of the woods leaving the four of them at the base of the castle. Kim pulled out a grappling hook as did the rest of the team who held their grappling guns. All four pointed it straight up and fired their grappling guns sending the hooks flying into the air. Within seconds the hooks gripped onto a steel garter and the cords began to reel the team up. The stopped in front of a window and climbed into the darkened castle.
Seth had his M-4 up and looking around as the laser cut into the darkness. Just then three flashes of green lit everything up behind him and he glanced back. Shego had her hands lit up and ready to go as Jordan's sword was out with the plasma on the blade. Kim walked past them with her pistol out and she stepped up next to Seth. Together they led the way as Shego and Jordan watched behind them watching their rear. They worked their way towards the lower levels where they hoped to find Duff. As they walked they saw golf trophies, pictures of ancient ancestors of Duff. They walked through the halls looking around for any sign of Duff.
They walked into a large room that had many coats of armor that lined the wall. Suddenly a cage dropped down around them locking them in tightly. Seth and Kim had their guns up searching for a target to fire on. Suddenly they heard laughing coming from above them as long as clapping. They looked up as Duff came walking up and looking down at them in the cage. Seth reacted by snapping his gun up and firing a three round burst at Duff. Suddenly there was a shine of purple and the three slugs fell harmlessly to their feet as the empty casings fell to the floor. Seth looked around at everyone and then back to Duff as he snapped his fingers. They all heard the sound of the shield powering up and as it did, electrical currents traveled around the bars.
Instinctively Seth reached over and grabbed Kim to shield her with his body as Jordan did the same with Shego. Just as they did four electrical bolts flew through the air and slammed into the four of them. Each of them let out a roar of pain as the arcs of electricity slammed into each of them. They screamed out more as the currents brought them to the ground. They flinched and convulsed as the currents left their bodies leaving small arcs of blue electricity crawling across them. The last thing any of them saw or heard was the sound of the cage lifting up and Duff laughing harder.
