Chapter 5
The Olympics
Ron and Kim sat in the living area of their unit staring at a upturned ballcap with a bunch of slips of paper in it. Jim Cocraine, their main contact with the network was sitting with them.
"Okay you two. You have already been able to agree on some of the events you wanted to cover. Kim, you are going to cover the figure ice skating, free style skiing and the snowboarding events. Ron you will cover hockey, the biathlon, and ski jumping. Some of the events both of you will cover, but now there are a few that you cannot agree on so we are going to draw one each."
Kim sat back with her arms crossed.
"Okay Ron you draw first."
Ron reached in and grimaced.
"Skeleton."
Kim giggled.
"Look at it this way Ron, you have experience falling down."
Ron laughed.
"Haha KP, now your turn."
Kim reached in and pulled a slip of paper out and unfolded it. She closed her eyes and shook her head.
"Noooooo! This is not possible, even for me!"
Ron started to giggle but thought it might not be in his best interest.
"What did ya get KP?"
Kim held up the slip of paper.
"CURLING!"
Ron struggled to keep a straight face.
"Curling?"
He was really struggling not to laugh. Kim groaned and laid her head back.
"Curling, that is about as interesting as watching ice melt."
Ron raised a finger.
"Actually Kim, you don't watch the ice melt but you do scrub it."
Kim glared at Ron in a manner that would have melted the ice for the hockey games. Ron shut his mouth and sat back again as Jim laughed.
"I think we can stop at this point. You both will have enough to do over the next few days. Now each of you will have a team along with you to help you. There will be a camera person, a sound person, an assistant, and a medic. We want to keep you safe. I would like to thank both of you for agreeing to do this. The Olympic Committee was very pleased when we told them that you would be doing this. The Winter Olympics don't seem to get the same amount of excitement that the Summer Games do. They are hoping that with your participation that it will get more people interested."
Kim tried to cover her face as she yawned.
"Oh excuse me Mr. Cochraine. I didn't mean to be so rude as to yawn like that."
Jim shook his head as he stood and gathered his things.
"It's no problem Miss Possible. You two have had a busy day already and I would imagine that you would like to get a good nights sleep. I take my leave and let you do just that. Get a good breakfast and mingle with the athletes tomorrow. We will meet with you right after lunch so that we can get you into position for the Opening Ceremonies. You will not have a lot to do there as that is the more formal of the ceremonies. Ron, you will need to be ready as some of the first jumps will be going on for the ski jumping events. So we will want you to ahhhh... jump right into it by making a couple of jumps. Miss Possible, I'm sorry but right not that is an all men's event."
Kim grumbled.
"That's so not fair."
Jim nodded.
"You are not alone in that. Maybe some day the women will have their own jumping event. Well, good night you two. I'll see you at our meeting tomorrow."
Ron followed him to the door. As he left, Ron closed and locked the door. Turning around, he noticed Kim yawning again. He stepped over and gave her a quick kiss.
"Why don't you go ahead and get a shower first."
Kim purred as she wrapped her arm around him.
"That sounds good to me. Thank you."
She turned toward her room as he finished picking up the papers that littered the table.
Kim blinked as she sat up in her bed and looked around. It took a few minutes for her to get her bearings. The room was nicely furnished if not plain. The lights of the city outside the window reflected off the snow piled up on the window sill. The number on her clock read three twenty five. Yawning and stretching, she stood up out of her bed and headed for the bath that she would be sharing with Ron. Her bare feet padded down the carpeted hall as she scratched her side under the red jersey that she wore. She had forgotten a dryer sheet in the last load she had put in the dryer and the jersey was not a soft as it normally was. Her red flannel pants swished against each other as she made her way down the hall. The pants were a gift from Ron. She had taken the habit of wearing only the jersey even in the winter, but Ron thought she might need a little something extra during the winter.
The door to Ron's room was slightly open and she heard the slight snore that told her he was asleep. She turned into the bath and closed the door. She didn't turn on the light so she would be able to see afterward and there was enough light from the frosted window for her to see. She closed her eyes as she crossed the room. The bath was small enough that she could tell where everything was and she was so tried she just wanted to keep her eyes closed. Dropping her pants she sat down.
Ron was startled out of bed by Kim's ear shattering scream. He bolted out of bed, and flung his door open. Her voice rang out loud and clear from the bath room.
"RONALD STOPPABLE!"
He stopped the turn he was making for her room and turned toward the bath room. When he arrived at the closed door he could her her muttering a number of words he was not used to hearing her say. The light under the door came on as she continued to mutter. He knocked on the door.
"KP, are you okay?"
Her snarling voice came back.
"NO! STAY right there. Don't you dare go back to bed."
Then the sound came to his ears that gave him the entire sitch. The sound of a toilet seat being slammed down. He closed his eyes and rapped his head against the wall. He had been the last one in the bathroom. At school he and Glen shared a bath and at home he had his own bath. He was NOT in the habit of putting the seat down and he had forgotten. Kim had her bath and the seat stayed down. So she had gone in and sat down and....
"Uhhhhh.....KP.....I think I forgot something."
She snarled.
"OOOOHHHHH YEEEAHHHH. You forgot something alright!"
The door to the bath flung open to reveal a very irate Kim Possible. Ron took one look at her.
"KP if look could kill then the Royal Canadian Mounted Police will be arresting you for first degree murder in the morning."
Kim shook her head as she crossed her arms.
"Nope, once I told my story it would be called justifiable homicide."
He bowed his head like a little boy.
"I am sorry." He whispered.
Kim stared at him for a few seconds and giggled. She walked up to him and gave him a kiss on the nose.
"You are forgiven. Just don't let it happen again. Let's get back to sleep. We have a busy day tomorrow."
Ron nodded as he turned back to his room.
"Okay, good night KP."
He had only take a few steps when her hand slipped into his. She led him toward her room.
"After sitting in that cold water I need someone to help warm me up."
Ron gave a slight smile.
"Booyah."
The next morning she got up and went straight to the bath. After finishing, she washed her hands and opened the door to run into Ron. His arms came down around her shoulders and pulled her close. She pulled him tight against herself and purred as she nestled her face into his shoulder. Ron stiffened for a moment.
"KP, as badical as it is to have you smashing yourself against me, I need you to release your hold before something happens. I think I should have passed on that second slurpster last night."
Kim quickly released him and stepped back giggling.
"Okay, you go do your thing and lets' get ready for breakfast. I'd like to get down there and met some of the athletes and start to mingle with them."
Ron bent over and gave her a kiss on the nose just before he closed the door.
"Be right back KP."
Kim walked back to her room to change. There was no TV in the unit, but they were able to use one of the Kimmunicators as a projector. That way they were able to get most channels they wanted. Not that they would be watching a lot of TV anyway. From what they knew of their schedule they would be quite busy most of their stay. Their unit had two small bedrooms, one with a double bed that she was using and the other had a single that Ron was using. There was a single bath, a sitting area and a kitchen. The kitchen didn't have any appliances installed. Ron made the joke that they were making sure that she didn't burn the building down. He ended up limping to his bedroom that night.
Kim was sitting in the sitting room when Ron walked in. They had decided for Wade to build them a set of clothes based on the one piece outfits they had used at the news conference. The outfits they had on were black sweaters with the KP and Olympic logos on the right breast. The pants they had on were similar to the old cargo pants they used to wear, just not a loose and also black. Ron extended his hand and pulled Kim to her feet. Putting their room keys in their pockets and picking up their Olympic ID's they headed out to the room for breakfast. Kim put her arm through Ron's as they walked down the hall.
"You think about what we talked about last night?"
Ron glanced over at her.
"That it might not be a coincidence that Joe showed up at the airport, and that we were given a room inside the Olympic Village while the rules say only the athletes and select persons of the delegations can stay there. Add to the fact that these passes they gave us have a higher priority than most of the officials? Me thinks I smell something."
Kim nodded.
"Yeah, I have a feeling there was come communication between the Canadian Spy group and GJ. I also have a feeling that we just might be getting some missions that no one has told us about yet."
Ron put his arm around her.
"Well, if so we'll just have to take care of what ever we are supposed to take care of."
Kim giggled as they got on the elevator and headed down to the cafeteria.
Kim let go of Ron's arm as he opened the door to the cafeteria. Looking around as she stepped into the room, she noticed several athletes from a number of nations were all eating together. Taking Ron's hand, they started for the opening of the serving line. Kim picked up a bowl of fruit, some oatmeal, milk, and juice. Ron was about to fill his tray when he caught the glare from Kim. He ended up with a stack of pancakes, several strips of bacon, a couple of fried eggs, milk and juice. As they made their way to an empty table they noticed quite a few stares from the athletes. Most just went back to eating while others whispered to their neighbors as they nodded at the pair. Kim and Ron were about to take a seat at an empty table when a voice with a accent called out.
"Miss Possible, Mr. Stoppable, please honor us by joining our table."
Kim looked around and noticed a tall blonde haired man waving at them from a table nearby. Ron shrugged and let Kim take the lead toward the table where a number of other people were already sitting. The man remained standing as the two of them set down their trays. The man gave a slight bow to them.
"My name is Karl Johannessen, I am representing Norway in the Biatholon. It is a pleasure having you with us. I will let my friends introduce themselves."
A young girl stood across from Kim.
"I am Grete Jensen. I will be in the speed skating events."
An older man nodded from across the table.
"My name is Erik Larsen, I am in the bobsled. I hope that I will be able to show you how it is done."
The man sitting next to him stood for a moment and reached over to shake Ron's.
"I'm Olaf Bakke. I am a ski jumper."
Olaf sat back in his seat as Kim smiled at all of them.
"It's great to meet all of you. Ron and I are looking forward to the games and participating in the events."
Grete pulled a small autograph book out of her coat.
"I got this because I knew that I would be meeting a lot of important and famous people. I didn't think that I would meet you so soon. When my little sister heard that you would be here at the Olympics she asked me to get your and Ron's autograph."
Kim laughed as she put down her fork and took the book from Grete. Pulling a pen from a sleeve on the sleeve of her mission sweater she signed the book and then passed the book and the pen to Ron. He signed the book and passed it back to Grete. Olaf took as sip from his tea and set his cup down.
"Ron, I take it that you will be doing the report on ski-jumping."
Ron shifted in his seat nervously.
"Uhhh... yeah, normally I would let Kim do something like that but they don't allow the ladies to do something like that."
Kim scowled.
"I can't believe that they don't have a woman's event."
Olaf shrugged.
"Maybe soon Miss Possible. Why don't you join Ron here when he comes out to the ski jumps prelims."
Kim thought a minute.
"Well, I was thinking about going to the luge practice to see if they would let me take a run or two, but I think I go with Ron."
Olaf nodded.
"We will be looking for both of you."
The group spent the rest of the meal listening to stories of Kim's and Ron's adventures.
Kim gave Ron a hug as he made his way to the lift.
"You'll do fine. Nobody falls as good as you do."
Ron looked down at her grimly.
"That's not helping much KP."
Kim lifted herself on her tiptoes and gave him a little kiss.
"Have some confidence in yourself. I am proud of you. You did fine announcing the event, it only took you two takes. Now all you have to do is get up there and make your jump."
Ron smiled.
"Okay, thanks KP. As long as I know another one of those kisses is waiting for me I'll do my best."
Kim stood with the rest of the crowd as they waited for the jumpers to make their jumps. It took her a few minutes to make her way through the crowd as people kept coming up to her. Now she waited in the edge of the area. Ron was next as the announcer came up on the speakers.
"The next jumper is not representing any of the countries. He is Ron Stoppable of Team Possible, here representing all nations in the spirit of competition."
The crowd cheered as Ron slid out on the seat at the top of the jump.
Ron held his breath as he slid over on the rails and let his skis fall into place in the ruts on the slope. It looked steep, REALLY REALLY steep. He took a couple of calming breaths. They had skied out of an exploding lair a couple months before. The explosion had boasted Ron off a large snow dune. He figured that this would be only a little different. He watched the lights on the board to the side. The light was yellow meaning to wait. If the light turned red then he would have to get off the slope until the conditions improved. It was warm for the time of the year and it looked like the officials would have to bring in snow for several of the events.
The light turned green. He would need to go within 10 seconds. All the things that Olaf and the others had told him raced through his mind as he stood up and got into his crouch. He accelerated quickly down the slope. Just as he reached the edge of the ramp he made his move.
Kim held her breath as Ron stood up and started down the slope. Her heart stopped as he reached the end of the jump and he made his move.
Kim gently pushed a lock of Ron's hair out of his face as he lay with his head in her lap. She shifted the icepack in her other hand and checked his head.
"How does that feel?"
Ron sighed.
"Better. Did I make as big an idiot of myself as I think I did?"
Kim shook her head.
"NO, you didn't. In fact several of the commentators said you made a historic jump."
Ron snorted.
"Riiiiight."
Kim scowled down at him.
"Well they DID! I am NOT lying to you!"
The scowl disappeared from her face as she started to giggle.
"They said that your jump was the most spectacular wide-out in the history of the sport. Even more than the guy who used to be shown on the Wide World of Sports. Remember the Thrill of Victory and the agony of Defeat. Well, your wipe-out eclipsed that one. I'll have to say only you could land on on your feet, fall down on your butt and follow that by a face plant, then several flips. The medics were terrified you might have broken your neck or back."
Ron tried to laugh but winced in pain.
"The agony of defeat huh. I have to agree with that. Agony of de feet, de head, de back, de butt and everything else. I think I have a lump on my neck."
Kim snorted as she tried not to laugh.
"Yeah, you do, it's your head."
The laughter disappeared from her face as she looked up at the scene playing on the wall from the Kimmunicator. Ron saw what she was watching and sat up.
"Kim, we have already talked about this. There was nothing you could have done."
Kim turned to him with tears in her eyes.
"But Ron, I just can't shake the feeling that I could have done something if I had been there. I would have been standing right there if I hadn't gone with you. I could have kept that luger from hitting that post."
Ron put his arm around her.
"Kim, you can't be everything or be everywhere. You were with me because you wanted to be. You can do some badical things but I just don't see how you could have saved him. Now let's get ready for the opening ceremony. We have some pretty good seats and we don't have any responsibilities until more of the events start."
Kim leaned over and nestled her head onto his shoulder. Her world could be coming to an end but just a few seconds in this position could always make her feel better. She pulled back and wiped her face.
"Come on Mr. Wipe out. Let's get ready."
Kim waited for Ron outside of the building. The Opening Ceremonies the night before would be something that she would remember for the rest of her life. She had been around the world, and had seen a lot of things. She had received several honors, but sharing that moment with Ron, sitting there in the audience during the march of nations and watching everything that went on was just the highlight of her life at this point. Next to the night at the Junior prom that is. She patted her coat pocket to be sure Ron's Valentine gift and card was there.
They had spent the day filming small clips from several places at the Olympics. They interviewed a number of the athletes, surveyed the runs and the events that they would be running on, and just a few basic clips of the two of them and alone. Kim had grumbled when they had to go separate directions. It was not that Kim minded being away from Ron, but what she did mind was the cameraman that would be covering Ron. Kim corrected herself. Make that a camerawoman. A camerawoman who was making eyes at her man. A camerawoman who had Bonnie's chest, Tara's head and legs.
Kim had to bite her tongue when Ron got back talking how nice his team was and how nice the camera girl was. But, a look at Ron would always calm her down. She was getting excited over nothing. Ron was completely oblivious of her attentions. Sometimes that obliviousness would irritate her, but now it was one of his assets. It was not that she didn't trust him, but all it would take is for him to put his arm around the girl or say something to her and the media would be all over it. She reminded herself of the something. Her 'assistant' was very handsome and was at her side for every need. She would have to watch her step. She was thinking about talking to someone at the network about it.
She put all of this out of her mind as Ron came out of the apartment building. They were going out to eat and then head over to the Salt Building where all of the athletes and other people from the country delegations would go to relax. Ron had found a French restaurant near the Olympic Village and had made reservations. Normally they would not have been able to get in, but Ron called in a couple of favors. When the head chef of the restaurant found out that Ron Stoppable was trying to get reservations he quickly agreed and set up a time and table for the two of them. Ron had told her to dress up a little so she pulled out her new LBD. She made sure he had packed the sport coat that she had bought for him. She really liked how he looked when he had it on. His voice brought her out of her thoughts.
"Looking good KP."
She turned around to see him standing there. He looked mighty handsome standing there. Stepping over to him she took his arm. Together they walked to the nearest metro station and took the metro to the station nearest the restaurant. Ron held the door for her as they entered. The hostess looked up at them as they approached her station.
"Reservation?"
Ron nodded.
"Yes, Stoppable, table for two."
The woman looked down at her sheet.
"Ah yes, Mr Stoppable we have your table ready. The chef has asked to be informed when you arrived."
She picked up two menus and made her way to a secluded table for two. Ron held Kim's chair for her as she took her seat, then took his own seat. The hostess placed the menus in front of them and motioned for their waiter. He arrived before she could turn to leave.
"My name is Leon, and I shall be your server this evening. What can I get for you?"
Ron gave Kim a look.
"Trust me?"
Kim gave him a look of warning.
"No funny stuff but yes."
Ron sat back and studied the menu.
"We will have the Valentines Special."
Kim's eyes popped out.
"Ron! That's eighty dollars a person! That's...."
The waiter bent over.
"There is no need to be upset Mademoiselle Possible. It is an honor to have you and Mr. Stoppable dining with us tonight. The owner was notified that you would be dining with us this evening and he has asked that he give you this dinner."
Before Kim could say another word the waiter continued.
"Please Mademoiselle, he remembers when he stopped the gentleman and his weather machine. Allow all of us to grant you this favor. This is a special evening. Allow us to make if a memorable one."
Kim blushed slightly as she nodded. She looked up at Ron in the candlelight of the room as their waiter walked away with their order. She gave a demure smile at him. This would be their first Valentine since he had proposed. Reaching across the small table she took his hand and brought it up to her lips. Catching his eyes with hers, she quietly mouthed. 'I love you.'
Ron raised his other hand and motioned with his finger for her to lean forward. She followed his instructions eagerly knowing what was coming. Ron gave her a gentle kiss, one that he would give her early in an evening when more and better would be coming. Kim sighed as she sat back down. Both of them had heard the beeps and clicks of several cameras and phones as they kissed. They knew that pictures of that moment would be on a number of websites by the morning.
Their waiter arrived with the first course of their meal. Kim placed the napkin in her laps and settled down to enjoy herself. This would be a great evening. She knew he would like his gift. It was a new watch. Not a mission watch or anything like it. But a very nice dress watch, one that he had seen a few months before. Kim had arranged to get it for him and had it engraved. Lifting her foot, she rubbed it against his leg. She gave him a demure smile in the candlelight as she picked up her fork.
Ron stole a glance down at Kim as they walked back from the metro station after dinner. The dinner had been something to remember. Ron had trouble eating because all of his attention had been on Kim. He knew she was beautiful, but tonight, tonight she was more that that. She glowed in her happiness. There was no doubt about it. He was happy too.
He pulled her a little closer as a brisk wind blew around them. Kim snuggled up against him not just for warmth but just to feel him closer to herself. Then she quickly came to a stop and looked up at him with a grin.
"Ron! Let's go skating!"
Ron held his breath for a second.
"Uh...KP. I am not very graceful on ice skates. In fact, I am better on a pair of skis than on a pair of skates and my performance today was an example of my skill on skis."
Kim stepped in front of him, grabbed the lapels of his jacket and brought his face down to hers.
"Ron, don't ever put yourself down again when I am around! They didn't ask you to do all of this because they thought you would be comedy relief. They asked you because you can do it. Name me one other person in this world who can keep up with me on mission. NO ONE! But you do!"
Ron put his hands on hers.
"Okay KP. Amp down."
Kim nodded and pulled him into a hug.
"I'm sorry Ron, but I just can't stand it when you put yourself down like that. I love you. You are a perfectly wonderful man."
Ron placed his arms around her.
"Let's go find that skating rink. I promise not to fall too much."
Kim giggled and started to pull him in the direction of the skating rink.
"Besides, skating will give you a good reason to put your hands on me."
A big grin spread across his face.
"Booyah."
The two commentators turned to face the cameras as the Olympic music died away.
"Greetings from Vancouver everyone. Welcome back to the the 2010 Winter Olympics. I am Bret Parks and my partner is Kat Price. We have been bringing you the latest news in these Olympics. Well, Kay things have been going well for the U.S. Team so far. They have the lead in the medal count for now, but Germany is close behind."
Kat turned to the camera. The Team Possible logo appeared over her shoulder along with the Vancouver logo.
"That is true Bret, and we will be getting to the events soon. But first, we want to present another set of reports from our special correspondents Team Possible. They have been living with the athletes and giving special reports on a number of events. The athletes of the world seem to have accepted the two heroes and let them into their lives and events. The two members of Team Possible have also been in the spotlight themselves just for being themselves."
As Kat spoke a picture of Kim and Ron staking filled the screen over her shoulder.
"It seems the two of them hit the town for Valentines. After eating at the exclusive Bastis Paris they moved to the public skating rink at the Olympic Village, there the two of them put on a fairly impressive show of skating themselves."
The film showed Kim doing a little spin under Ron's arm as they slid across the ice. Kim settled into Ron's arms and they skated away from the camera huddled in each others arms. Kat shook her head at the scene.
"It must have been nice for those two to get some piece and quiet. Now let's met with Kim Possible at the curling event."
The camera focused on Kim as she stood at the edge of a curling sheet.
"Welcome everyone to Curling. This is Kim Possible and I will be showing you just what this sport is all about. With me today is Ian Brighton of the British team. Ian? Just what is curling."
Ian stepped up next to Kim.
"Kim, some people think of it as a mix of shuffleboard and chess on ice. The main point of the game is to slide a 'rock' down the length of the ice sheet and get it to stop where you want it to stop. The way to score points is to have the most stone or rocks closest to the center of the circles. One team member pushes the stone down the ice while two sweepers sweep the ice in front of the stone. The sweepers can cause the stone to turn or continue on a straight line. That's a pretty simple explanation but why don't we get on the ice and show the people what we are do."
Kim smiled at him.
"That sounds like fun to me Ian. Let's go."
Ron watched as Kim turned and walked out on the ice. But his attention was not on Kim but Ian. Ian had watched Kim as she turned and walked out on the eyes. The look Ian gave Kim did not sit well with him. Ron knew there was not a lot he could do as Kim and Ian went through with the demonstration. Ron also noted the look on Kim's face. He knew that Kim had picked up on something between the two of them and that Ian's intent on being close to her was not just to show her how to curl the stone. Ron shook his head. He had had to deal with the same thing with a couple of his demonstrations. It appeared that the network was pairing each of them up with the best looking single people from the sport they were supposed to be demonstrating. He hoped there was nothing to it and that it was all a coincidence
Kim was finishing up when Ron walked down to the edge of the ice.
"Hey KP, you look good with a broom in your hand."
Kim glared back at Ron for a moment then began to giggle.
"Yeah, I guess there was more to this than I thought. I'll meet you out front Ron. Why don't you help the group get the stuff back to the van."
Ron took the hint from Kim that she needed some space to deal with a situation. He nodded and started to help the crew pick up the equipment. Ian slid over to Kim.
"I would like to thank you Kim for helping demonstrated our event. It is not the most attention grabbing event of all the Olympics. It helps having someone such as yourself showing an interest in the sport."
Kim nodded.
"You are welcome Ian. I must say there is a lot more to it that I ever thought. It is very difficult to get the stone to go where you want it to."
Ian stepped over to Kim and looked down at her. He reached out and took her by both arms and rubbed his hands up and down her arms.
"May I show my appreciation tonight? I would be honored to take you to dinner, say about eightish?"
Kim gently moved from his hands.
"I will have to decline Ian. I already have plans for tonight."
Ian took a step forward.
"Are you sure? I mean I know you are close to your partner, but...."
Kim took another step back and turned away.
"I am sorry Ian, but I can't I do have plans with Ron tonight and he is boyfriend as well as my partner. I hope you do well in the Olympics."
Kim turned her back on Ian and walked away. It was then she noticed her cameraman was still in the area and had apparently filmed what had happened. She glared at him and motioned for him to precede her out of the door.
Kim flopped down in the chair in their room.
"Ron? Have you noticed something about who we are being paired with to demonstrate the events and who are on our little news teams?"
Ron sat next to her.
"You mean that we are always paired with the most eligible and best looking of the athletes of the opposite sex to demonstrate the event? Yeah. I have also noticed that the camera people will hang around after the demonstration."
Kim scowled.
"So they can sneak a film of the athletes hitting on us? How many times has it happened to you?"
Ron thought for a moment.
"Well, just a couple of times but I really noticed Ian coming on to you. You know he is one of Europe big playboys."
Kim nodded.
"Yeah, methinks I smell a rat and we left Rufus with my brothers. I want to have a little talk with Jim! I have a feeling they would just love to have a film of one of us going on with another of the athletes. Maybe we....."
"BE BE be Beep"
Kim turned and looked at the Kimmunicator.
"Maybe we go on a mission?"
She picked up the Kimmunicator and pushed the button. Wade's face appeared on the screen.
"Kim, Ron, Dr. Director just called in. She has a mission for you. Joe will meet you out front with your ride. I have already let the network know to reschedule your meetings."
Kim stood up.
"Okay Wade, let us get ready. Any idea of what's going on?"
Wade shook his head.
"Nope, Dr. Director didn't tell me. She said Joe would fill you in."
Kim moved to press the button to cut off the kimmunicator.
"Okay Wade, Tell Joe that we will be down in a minute. Kim out."
Kim turned off the Kimmunicator.
"Ron, ever get the feeling that there are more than a few reasons that we were sent up here."
Ron nodded.
"Oh yeah. Let's get ready and ace this place."
Kim smiled as she gave him a little kiss.
"Let's roll big boy!"
Both of them ran for their rooms as they started to undress.
Hope that all of you enjoyed the story. Things are going to get interesting for Kim and Ron now. Stay posted for more.
Please leave a review. I would appreciate it.
The Captain.
