Chapter seven: Speed is all you need
"Okay Kim if you can do this then you will not have any troubles with speed." Shego said as they made their way toward her car.
"So what am I doing?" Kim asked as they got into her car. Shego smiled and started the car, she turned to Kim.
"What do you know about cars Kimmie?"

Kim and Shego sat in the car outside the local dealership. Kim looked at Shego with a brow raised in amusement.
"You want me to steal a car? That's it?" Kim asked in disbelief. Stealing a car was so amateur there was no challenge to this task.
"Oh not just any car. I want that beauty in the show room. You see it there?" Shego pointed through the darkness to the silver mustang in the center of the show room. Kim looked back at Shego and scoffed.
"If you want a mustang I could just buy you one."
"I know you could, between the two of us we could buy every car on the lot. No for this you need to have speed and the ability to think on your feet. Now meet me at this address." Shego handed Kim a piece of paper. "No time limit, if you can get that car to this address without a scratch you pass."
Kim looked at the paper; the address was clear on the other side of town. "And if I don't pass?" She asked with a smirk.
"Then we'll do it again until you get it right. Now move along its late and I want to get out of here." Shego said nudging Kim toward the show room and leaping back in her car. Kim watched her speed away.
Kim jogged toward the window and stared at the car from inside. This was too easy, she reached into her pocket and pulled out her Kimmunicator. She had spent many long nights modifying it for its new purpose. She pointed the device at the alarm on the opposite wall and pushed a button. The alarm deactivated and Kim walked around to the door. She picked the lock in record time. She opened the door and strolled inside stopping at the desired car.
She pulled out her Kimmunicator again and pushed the button disarming the car. She pushed another button and unlocked the car. She slipped in and yawned, this was far too easy for her taste. She began to hot wire the car when she heard police sirens in the distance.
"Now it's interesting." She said under her breath as the car started. She put the car in gear and sped off braking through the glass and driving off the lot. The police just getting to the dealership once she had gotten around the corner. She checked the address and sped up, moments later she saw the blinding red and blue lights in the rearview mirror.
Kim smiled and turned down another street, she sped up more as the police began to catch up. She only wished she had time to play around, she sped down an ally and turned on to a new street, the police followed close behind but slowed when they chased her through the ally.
Kim turned down another street and saw her chance. She turned into a parking grudge and sped to the second story and parked between two cars. She turned off the car and ducted down two police cruisers drove past and continued up to the next story. Kim started the car again and drove out of the parking grudge.
She sped down the street checking her watch, she had already wasted three minutes running from the cops, and it took her two to steal the car. She was still half way to the finish line and time was a luxury she could not afford. She took another turn and heard the familiar sound of sirens in the air. Kim rolled her eyes and continued to speed through the empty streets.
She was close to the address and there was no sign of the police. She felt free and clear now, until she once again heard the sirens. She was beginning to become annoyed with the police but continued to speed through the empty streets. She turned one last corner and found the address. A warehouse stood before her, she turned the wheel and skidded around to the back. She slid to a stop just between a dumpster and Shego's car.
Kim turned off the car and slowly got out looking over the hood. Shego stood nearby with a stop watch in hand.
"Six minutes twenty seven seconds. Damn Kimmie I think I've aged waiting for you. What took you?" Shego asked with a smirk.
"You try getting here without leading the cops straight to us. How the hell did they get there so fast?" Kim said slamming the door and walking up to Shego to look at the stop watch.
"Oh I called them." Shego said nonchalantly. Kim stared at Shego in confusion, what was she trying to do here?
"I told you time and time again Kimmie. Rule number one always expect the worst. Besides I knew they weren't going to catch you, I just didn't want it to be too easy for you."
Kim still stared at Shego then a smile began to form on her lips. Shego grinned at her, and together they laughed hysterically. Their laughter echoed through the air and carried over the city.
