It has been two weeks seen Ron last contacted Kim. Kim herself wasn't the same anyone can tell from just looking at her. She hasn't been sleeping well because of the ongoing nightmares she has been having. She thought it was just her imagination acting up because she didn't understand what was going on with Ron so she didn't tell anyone. With every passing day Kim would become more and more frighten about Ron's safety. She also got madder. She hated the fact that Ron was keeping the truth from her a secret. She felt so helpless and useless.
Monique was behind the counter at Club Banana filling out your daily inventory report when Kim in her mission outfit came walking in.
"Kim! Where have you been?" Monique said laying down her clipboard on the counter.
"Went on a mission to save a small village from an erupting volcano" Kim said walking towards Monique
"You went on a mission alone?" Monique asked concern but at the same time curious.
"Nah Wade and Yori were with me. So not the drama Monique" Kim smiled
A little more at ease Monique picked up her clipboard taking out the piece of paper "where is Yori anyway?" she said walking around the counter
"Probably somewhere here" Kim said looking around the store "if not she is probably resting at my place"
"At least someone is resting" Monique walked into the Manager's office leaving the paper on the manager's desk. "Looks like you haven't been getting much of that" Monique closed the door behind. "What's up girl? Ever since Ron left you seem on edge just waiting for bad news or something."
Kim sigh "because I feel like I am M. I feel at any moment Yori will just appear and tell me Ron's dead" Kim wiped a tear
"I mean this wedding planning/ furniture shopping isn't helping either. If it isn't furniture shopping than its wedding planning, if it's not wedding planning I'm wigging out that Ron hasn't contacted me!" Kim paused trying to control herself "I guess I have a lot on my mind. Ron is usually the one who keeps me chill when I have super stress overload"
"Well let me see if I can't help" Monique smiled.
Monique walked behind the counter putting two wrapped gifts on it. One was a small blue box wrapped in a purple bow. The other was somewhat bigger but it was bag rather than a box.
"Happy Birthday Kim!" Monique said walking around the counter to give Kim a hug.
Kim smiled "awe thanks Monique" hugging her back
"Here" Monique handed her the small blue present "Open this one first. I know you're going to flip when you open it" Monique said with a huge smile on her face.
Kim unwrapped it. When she opened the box she couldn't contain her joy "Monique you got the socks I have been saving up for from CCB!" Kim squealed with delight hugging her best friend.
"Yup but that's not all girl. Just wait to see your other present" Monique said pointing at the other gift.
Kim opened the bag to see a light baby blue strapless short dress with pair silver heels inside.
Kim looked at Monique who gave another huge smile "Go on try it on"
Kim then tried on the dress with the heels in the dressing room. She stepped out of the dressing room
"How do I look?"
"I knew it would great on you" Monique said folding her arms with a smile looking at Kim. Kim turned to look at herself in the mirror and smiled back at Monique.
"Monique you are greatest!" Kim hugged Monique again.
Soon then Kim's cellphone started ringing from her bag. Kim reached to her bag and answered.
"Hello?" Kim said. Kim listened while Monique was staring at her wondering who could Kim be talking to. "Oh that's Spankin' news!…. Oh okay I'll be sure to do that… sure no big and thanks again. Bye" Kim hanged up the phone with a huge smile on her face.
"Who was that?" Monique asked
"That was Mr. Herr that showed us the house I was telling you about" Kim said still with the biggest smile she had since Ron's absents.
"What about him?" Monique said
"We got the house!" Kim yelled. Both teenage girls squealed
"Kim that's great!" Monique said
"Yeah I can't wait to tell everyone! I hope Ron will like the house" Kim said looking somewhat nervous.
"Kim, I sure Ron would be happy with your chose. Don't sweat about that now" Monique said
"You're probably right" Kim smiled
"Hey why don't we finish up here and we can have a girl's night out. What do you say?"
Kim thought about it and smiled "As long as I get to wear this!" Kim said
"I was hoping you'll say that" Monique smirked
The past two weeks for Ron have been non-stop training mode. Every morning when Ron would wake up he would walk down to a little river near his room and shower and brushed his teeth. After that he would meet sensei by the cherry tree and do ninja stars drills till breakfast. After breakfast he would mediate before he would start his combat training till lunch. After lunch Ron would sit by the cherry tree or take a swim in the river with Rufus or just plain relax till sensei called for him to continue combat training till dinner. Once after dinner training was done for the day. Ron grew use the schedule even though in the beginning he would complain and be half asleep most of time.
Ron stretched out his hands and rubbed his eyes. "Rufus time to wake up" Ron said nudging the naked mole rat. When he did he noticed a laptop inside his room. Ron got up and walked to the laptop and turned it on. Once the laptop started up he noticed the date.
"Today's KP's birthday Rufus" Ron said. Rufus crawled on Ron's back and looked at the laptop and nodded "well we better wish her a happy birthday. She is probably worried I haven't called her" Ron quickly went to Kim's website.
Kim and Monique were in front of Kim's house. Kim and Monique were still at the mall getting all nicely dressed to go out for girl's night when Kim's mom called Kim telling her to come home immediately that something had come up. Kim was wearing her new outfit Monique gave her with her hair tied up high. Monique was wearing a strapped laced short red dress.
Kim opened the door to see the light were off.
"Hello mom?" Kim said turning on the lights. When she did everyone jumped out "surprise!"
Kim looked to see her family, the Stoppable's, Wade, Felix, Zita, Yori, Cousin Larry, and some of Kim's friends from the cheer squad in party attire all smiling at her. She noticed the banner in the middle of the room happy 18th birthday Kim!
Kim smiled trying hard not to cry "Thanks everyone" Kim turned to Monique "You knew didn't you?" giving her friend a smile.
Monique smiled "Of course" putting her arm around her friend laughing at Kim's reaction. " you needed some good surprise girlfriend"
"Come on everyone" Mrs. Possible yelled "Let's go into the backyard and…"
"Get this party started "Jim and Tim said. Everyone cheered slowly making their way to the backyard wishing Kim a happy birthday.
Outside, everyone started dancing and eating and just plain having a good time. Even Kim was enjoying herself. The backyard was decorated with twinkle lights and streamers. There were a few tables for people could sit down and eat. Next to that was the buffet table flooded with all different types of food. On the other side of the yard Jim and Tim created a dance floor with the stereo blasting to some of teen's favorite songs.
Wade was drinking some soda talking to the tweebs when his wrist watch beeped
"Hey Jim and Tim I'll be back okay. I felt my laptop inside and Kim just got a hit on the site" the tweebs nodded.
"Just don't take too long" Jim said walking with Tim towards the food table.
Once inside Wade sat in the kitchen table opening his laptop.
"Yo Wade!" Ron smiled
"Hey Ron long time no see. How's it hanging?" wade chuckled
"Is that supposed to be a monkey pun?" Ron said smiling
"Sorta" Wade smiled back "but seriously how are you?"
"Good I guess. Lot of training and drills, you know the basic ninja stuff"
"Right" Wade said "you want me to call Kim for you?"
"Actually Wade before you do I need you to do some stuff for me"
"Sure Ron" Wade said
"Got something to write on because it's all a lot" Ron said
Wade quickly opened a word document page "I'm all ears"
Kim was talking to Felix sitting down eating some food about the house.
"Aw man that sweet! A house that wicked awesome Kim if you need any help I'm your man" Felix smiled
"Thanks Felix I know Ron and I can always count on you" Kim said giving Felix a smile
"Speaking of the Ron man, any word from him yet?" Felix said. Felix, Wade and Monique were the only ones outside the family who actually knew the truth about what happen to Ron. It wasn't easy to keep it from Felix since he was there when Kim left storming out Bueno nacho the day Ron left.
"No but hopefully soon" Kim said taking another sip of soda
"Alright done" Wade said saving the document "don't worry Ron half the things on your list I'll can easily do in my sleep but the others might take a little time. I'll do my best to get this done before the wedding" Wade said reading over the list and closing it.
"I sure you will my man. I mean what's the best man for right?"
"What! You want me to be your best man?" Wade said not sure if Ron was playing with him
"Of course, wade you aren't just the super genius who runs Kim's website and makes cool gadgets for our missions. You're my friend. I wouldn't think of anybody else who can handle Kim's and my crazy lifestyle better than you. So what you say?
Wade smiled "I would be honored Ron"
Kim walked into the kitchen "Oh there you are Wade. The tweebs told me we got a hit on the site. What's the sitch?"
"Take a look for yourself Kim" Wade said smiling
Kim walked and took a seat next to wade seeing Ron on the screen "Happy Birthday KP"
"Ron!" Kim smiled "thanks"
"Hey you're looking awfully gorgeous tonight" Ron said giving Kim his goofy smile
Kim blushed "Yeah it was Monique's idea. Everyone decided to surprise me with a party but enough about me how are you? I have so much to tell you!"
Wade slide out "I'll let you two talk in private." Wade said walking back to the backyard
"To answer your question KP I'm fine and dandy and so is Rufus" Rufus popped up on the screen
"Rufus it's good to see you" Kim smiled
"What do need to tell me Kim?"
"Ron we own a house!" Kim blurted out smiling
"Boo-yah! That's badical Kim? How does it look it?" Ron said overly excited at the news
Kim looked through the Kimmunicator and stretched out to show Ron the picture of the house she had saved on it.
Ron looked at the picture with widen eyes.
That's the house! The house I saw in the future!
"Ron?" Kim said kinda worried to why Ron wasn't talking
"Uh" Ron said suddenly realizing he hasn't spoken.
"You don't like the house. I knew I should have…" Kim said
"KP the house is great. It is just how I pictured it" Ron smiled
"Really?" Kim said
"Of course KP I…" Ron stopped in mid-sentence. Sure that was the house he saw in the future there was no denying that but seeing it in the present made Ron realized why the house looked so familiar.
Aw man this can't be
Ron did a metal face palm.
"Kim by any chance is this house on midcolor drive… is it?" Ron asked hoping that wasn't the case
"Yeah how did you know?" Kim asked curiously taking the Kimmunicator away from the screen looking at the house again.
"Uh nothing KP I…" Ron heard the sounds of the gongs. "KP I gotta go. That's my wake-up call. I have to go back to training but I'll talk to you soon. Happy Birthday again Kim and don't forget how much I love you. Bye" Ron than ended the call.
"I hate it when he does that" Kim said little bit heated closing the laptop
"Oh Kimmie-cub there you are. Come on outside we are just about to cut the cake" Mr. Possible said opening the kitchen door
"Coming dad" Kim said getting up from the table and leaving the kitchen.
Ron closed the laptop looking at Rufus "save by the bell buddy. Aw man I just can't believe the house..." Ron said. Ron stopped noticing a ninja running towards the room.
Ron looked at the ninja while Rufus crawled on Ron's shoulder. The ninja ran into the room and spoke in his best English "Master wants to see you now"
Ron quickly getting up "something wrong?" Ron didn't get an answer because ninja ran out disappearing.
"Let's go Rufus" Ron said running outside the room.
