Chapter 4

Family Reunion

"No!"

Was all that whispered past the lips of Ron Stoppable as he lay his eyes upon the ruins that was once the amazing temples of Yamanuchi.

These legendary buildings that were carved by a great warrior were now left as nothing more then a large patch of rubble.

When Kim finaly caught upto Ron and gazed upon the ruins that had captured her boyfriend in a state of shock she covered her mouth to stop the gasp from escaping her lungs.

"Ron I'm…..I'm so sorry" was all Kim could utter as she rested her hand gently on his shoulder.

Ron didn't stand there long as he ran across the rope bridge towards the once great school. He entered through the gates which had be completely destroyed and were now barely hanging off their hinges.

He ran into the centre screaming for the ones he knew at the school.

"SENSAI? HIROTAKA….YORI!!!!!!!!!"

Kim sooned followed in and grabbed Ron's shoulder to calm him down.

"Ron please calm down, you're not going to help anyone in this state!" As Ron turned to Kim he was breathing hard and gazed into her eyes.

"Kim I…." However before the Ron could say anything else he heard a voice that chilled both himself and Kim to their cores, a voice so frightning and so…familier.

"You know you two better keep it down….you could wake the dead"

The two searched for the origin of the voice until they found it. Pearched upon the flag pole of the central temple which was still standing was the smiking face of Nor.

"NOR!!" The two shouted in unison as they saw the menace looking down at them with his face still smug and proud of his handywork.

"That's my name" He replied as sydistic as ever, he certainly had not lost his flare for being sinister.

"What have you done!?" Ron demanded as Nor started to chuckle at the display around him.

"Oh you know, just warming up for the main event" He said as his chuckling continued.

"Main Event?" Kim repeated "What are you talking about?" She asked as Nor slowy turned his attention to the teen hero.

"As always KP you are in the way and NEVER on track of the plot at the beginning of the story. The main event is good ole Ron Stoppable!"

That caused the two to gasp in shock.

"You mean you did this….because you were bored!" Ron demanded which was enough to send Nor into a frenzy of laughter.

"AHAHAHAAAA. Bingo Ron, you always could tell what I was thinking" Nor mocked as Ron clenched his fist and teeth.

"Where is Sensai and Yori!?" Ron demanded through his teeth as his fist began to shake with all the pressure Ron was applying to them.

"Well the annoying old man is…" Nor then paused to reach behind him for a few seconds as he pulled out the beaten elder and held him up by the crown of his head which caused Ron and Kim to gasp in horror at the state he was in as Nor continued "Right Here! Ahahaha"

As Nor began laughing he threw Sensai off the buildingwith no regard for his safety.

Ron took off as fast as he could until he reached where Sensai were to hit and taking one mighty leap grabbed him in mid air and landed on his backside in a crashing slide.

When the two stopped so did Nor's laughter. He simply stared at the the two on the ground with the first serious expression he had shown since he had gotton back to earth.

"You have changed Stoppable!" Nor said in a flat tone of voice.

"Yeah I've grown a little" Ron replied in his best attempt to keep is calm laid back attitude but for the first time in his mission life….it wasn't working. "Now where is Yori!? TELL ME!!" Ron screamed as Nor returned to his sickening smile again.

"Oh 'that' one? She is other there" Nor replied directing his vision towards a large piller that had been wedged into one of the temple roofs in a crucifix like way. There Yori was battered and beaten her clothes totally torn to the point where only her womanhood was left covered. The rest unfortunatly was torn and shredded away.

Kim held her hands other her mouth and turned away, the very sight was too much for her to bare. Ron too had problems with this scene after a shocking gasp he quickly turned back to Nor in discuss.

"NOR…YOU….YOU DIDN'T…RA…" But before Ron could finish Nor intervined.

"Oh absolutly not Ron. I'm not into 'that' kind of pleasure all I've ever cared about it beating YOU! I just enjoyed beating her so much that I thought I would keep on doing it until you eventully got here. I guess her clothes did get a little torn in the process" Nor then paused as he scanned Yori's figure.

"Still, she certainly has the right curves Ron, AND she happened to really like us at one point. So why did we stick with the flat chested 'teen' herorine when we couldn't had a busty sexy Japanness bit…" Now it was Ron's turn to interupt.

"THAT IS ENOUGH NOR!!" Ron's screams echoed throughout the destroyed school and snapped Kim out of her shock of seeing Yori. "WHY ARE YOU HERE? WHY ARE YOU BACK? WHAT DO YOU WANT!?"

"YOU RON!" Nor's retaliation stopped Ron right there. "YOU, YOU, YOU!!! It has always been about getting to you. Technically this is ALL your fault!" That caused an invisble bolt of lightning to shoot striaght through Ron.

"My…My fault?" Ron whispered to himself. As Kim ran alongside him.

"Don't listen to him Ron, Nor is trying to get your head out of the game snap out of it!" Hearing thoses words Ron was back in his zone and focused on Nor.

"That's not gonna work Nor this is all YOUR doing and you're gonna pay!" That made Nor simply shrug.

"Oh well then how about we just great stright to it then!" And before anything else could be said Nor lunged himself towards the duo.

Kim and Ron quickly darted in opposite directions as Nor slammed his fist into the ground causing it to collapse into a small crator.

As Kim and Ron came to a stop they looked back at the reckage that Nor had left from his one attack.

"Woah…He's strong!" Kim exclaimed.

"And Fast!" Ron finished as his doubleganger slow stepped up and wiped the stone dust from his fist as he turned to face his mirror image.

"Only as Strong and as fast as you are Ron" He said in a calm tone of voice. Which caused Ron to show a blank expression on his face.

There was no way Ron could ever be fast, it took all his strengh to and ability to dodge that first attack and as for punching solid Rock there was no way. Soon Nor picked up on this blank expression.

"Wait a minute…" He said as he took a deep look into Ron's still confused eyes. He continued to stare into Ron's brown orbs with his Red ones. Until he came across a shocking revelation. "You….YOU FOOL!!" He shouted causing Ron to step back a bit. "You haven't taken control of your mystical Dragon Power!!?"

That really shocked Ron, he hadn't heard anyone talk about his Mystical Dragon Power since the year of the curse when Sensai told him how about it.

"What do you mean 'taken control?" Ron asked as he saw Nor get more and more annoyed, almost as if Ron was insulting him.

"It's because you've been playing footsy with that annoying KIM POSSIBLE…" Just as Nor said that he quickly spun round to Kim who had used Nor's distraction to her advantage to try a sneak attack, to no avail. Nor grabbed the leg which Kim had primed to hit him with and sent her hurtling into Ron who intern crashed to the ground with Kim on his chest.

Ron didn't get much chance to see if she was ok as he saw Nor heading for him. He quickly rolled Kim off him but could not move out of Nor's way and soon felt his neck being restricted by Nor's grip.

Ron felt the ground being removed from him as Nor lifted him up the his nect with ease with a disgusted look on his face.

"This is NOT my plan, you were surpose to be ready, you were suppose to have control of you Powers NOT be this puny weakling I see NOW!!"

Kim soon woke up to Nor's shouting and regained her footing. Gathering all her strengh she made another charge at Nor.

Nor however heard her coming and simply quick stepped to one side causing Kim to Run right past. In those few moments Nor threw Ron into Kim causing them both to crash to the ground in a tumble.

Nor gazed at this pile oh heroes with disgust.

"This is NOT part of my plan…" at that moment Nor raised his hand and opened his palm facing it towards the young lovers. A few moments later and a strange energy began to form until a small sparking ball of Red light emerged in Nor's palm. As the seconds past the ball grew bigger and bigger until it was the size of a basketball.

Nor's eyes pieced though Ron's as the thought of blasting both Kim and Ron to oblivion became like a wet fantasy until he realised one thing. "…No, not yet. Killing you like this isn't part of my plan!"

Nor approached Ron and grabbed the scruff of his shirt pulling him up so that their eyes met. Nor waited a few moments for Ron to come round before saying.

"Listen Ron, you have 4 days of peace, do you understand? FOUR days I will give you to get ready. When those 4 days are up I'll use the fifth day to strike your home of Middleton. Use your time well, cause if you don't beat me on the fifth day…" Just then Nor threw Ron to the ground as he walked off to finish "…YOU NEVER WILL!!"

With that a Red orb like energy field surrounded Nor and in a flash of light her took to the sky, faster then any jet and after a few moments was gone.

A few hours had passed and Kim finally woke up to find that a number of the other ninja had regained conciousness and were all helping eachother out.

Soon a tall dark haired ninja made his way toward Kim, she reckonised this young man as Hirotaka and made it to her feet as he approached.

"Kim Possible, are you ok?" Hirotaka asked, Kim however seemed to ignore him as she scanned her surroundings in a desperate attempt to find someone. She soon turned to Hirotaka.

"How is Sensai? And Yori? Where is Ron!?" Her question seemed to blurt out in a panic, Hirotaka gently rested his hands on her shoulders in an attempt to calm her down.

"Please calm down Kim Possible, Sensai and Yori are fine and Stoppable-san is with them" That was enough to calm Kim down but now she wanted to see them all.

"Where!?" She asked as if almost pleading with Hirotaka to tell her.

"Come, I will show you" With that the two headed to another temple that had escaped Nor's rampage.

Within these walls there were Sensai and Yori laying in beds next to one another, their only guest being one Ron Stoppable.

Ron stood there looking over the two with dry tears in his eyes.

"I'm sorry" He said to the no one but out cold ninja and the walls of the room. At that moment however Kim walked in onto Ron talking to himself, Hirotaka had chosen to remain outside. Kim Wanted to rush over to Ron and kiss him but found herself keeping quite to hear Ron speak to him self some more.

"I'm sorry I wasn't strong enough to stop him…I'm sorry I'm….weak. I'm so sorry" With that Ron buried his head into his hands as he cried in them until he heard Kim speak softly from the doorway.

"You're not weak"

Ron quickly looked up to see Kim Possible and stood up while drying his tears, before he could speak about how he was weak Kim quickly snapped back instantly.

"YOU'RE NOT WEAK!!" Ron froze, Kim had never used this kind of tone before. It sounded angry but it also sounded weak as if Kim was holding back her tear. That was soon apparent as the tears began to poar down her face as she continued.

"I don't know what's going on here Ron but I know you can overcome it. You have done it once before…" Kim paused as Ron walked upto her only to stop a few inches from her. "…So you can do it again!!" Before Ron could again reply Kim dove into his chest and and let her tears soak into his shirt.

"You ARE strong you always manage to overcome your fears and fight by my side and that is why I've always looked upto you Ron!!" She shouted as she gently punched his chest, she continued for a few seconds then stopped and wrapped her arms tightly around him as her tear continued to be absorbed by his black mission shirt. "What is going on Ron?" Kim asked as she nuzzled her head in his chest in an attempt to wipe her tears away.

"Nor has returned" The voice which answered Kim's question was not Ron but the old weakend voice of the master of Yamanuchi.

"Sensai!?" They both shouted at his sudden conciouness. The two approached Sensai preparing to catch him incase he were to fall.

"Are you ok Sensai?" Ron asked as the wise old man took a seat on the bed he had just stood up from.

"I'm fine Stoppable-san. Nor wanted my alive to tell you" Sensai replied as he coughed the last words of his sentence.

"Tell us what?" Kim asked ugently as the two sat eaither side the grand old master.

"What he plans to do" That caused the two to gasp the listen deeply to what Sensai had to say.

"He is here for you Stoppable-san, he wants revenge for what you did!"

"But Sensai…" Ron began "…how is it possible for Nor to have returned? I mean the last we heard of him was last year and I turned him good didn't I?"

"I'm afriad that is what caused this chain of events Stoppable-San…" That earned a confused glance from both Kim and Ron until Sensai continued "…you see Stoppable-San the universe is not just empty nothingness, it is a living entity much more advanced then anything of this world. However like all living things the universe has to follow rules to keep its excistence. Just like a human needs to breath air the universe needs to be kept within a perfect balance of good and evil, if this balance tips even slightly the entire universe could die."

This statement was too much for the crime fighting duo to process. Kim however was still doing her best to follow.

"So in order to stop itself from dying it fixed the problem be recreating the evil that Ron had lost?" She replied still shocked she actually knew what she was talking about.

"Exactly Kim Possible, but Nor had to be recreated to be exactly like Stoppable-san his shape, size and power!"

"Power!?" The two said in unision.

"Errr Sensai I know you didn't see the fight but Nor is a thousand times more powerful then me, I mean he made a huge creator in the ground with just his fist" Ron said back in objection of this accusation being made.

"Nor is no more powerful then you are able to be Stoppable-San, his power is limited to match yours, he can be no stronger then you are able are else that would upset the balance"

"But why now?" Kim demanded as Sensai straightend out his long beard.

"Nor was more then likely placed as far away from Stoppable-san as possible, two entities of the same being especially of such power should never be kept together on the same planet and…."

"Woah, woah, woah…" Kim intervined "…are you now suggesting that Nor is from outer space!?"

"Kim Possible, if you could understand the chaos that would insue when Nor and Ron meet you would understand why the universe did its best to place Nor as far away from Stoppable-san as possible!" Sensai's tone became slightly harsher then usual, he was dead serious about this.

"So basically I need to master my powers and go and beat Nor?" Ron asked only to see Sensai shake his head.

"I'm afriad not Stoppable-san" That caused them both to once again looked confused until Sensai said the most shocking thing the two had ever heard. "Stoppable-san I'm afraid….you will never defeat Nor!?"
