KP All Grown Up v2.0: Future Stoppable for Team Tri Stoppable
AN: Well everyone, here is the promised sequel to KP's "All Grown Up" story. Please enjoy the story:D
Chapter 7: New Mission?
A week had passed since the fateful mission in which Jesse had been hurt and thanks to in part of the fast healing abilities he had, and another in part to the care of his friends and family, he had been able to make a complete recovery.
Even after he was fully healed, he still had Cindy and Mindy visiting him to check up on him. Jesse knew it was because that the twins still felt a little bit guilty or upset about almost losing him on that last big mission.
When his sister had seen him walking around on the crutches at first, she thought he was playing a joke on her as she had not yet heard of the mission in which he got hurt in yet but when it came up on the news that night, she quickly apologized.
Jesse reflected on how both the babysitter and his sister had been almost as bad as Cindy and Mindy when it came to him trying to do things for himself during the first day. To him, a few broken bones would heal easily enough and when school started up again, he was able walk slowly but at the insistence of the twins, he remained on the crutches for the first day of school.
Jesse had not continued to use the crutches after that day because when one of the guys who had always been jealous of his relationship with Stoppable twins, one of whom he had liked a lot but she didn't like him so she turned him down every time. He remembered how after he had fallen between classes and the hurtful words that he had used before his and the two friend's laughter seemed to fill the hallway.
Jesse shook his head as he remembered how the word of what had happened quickly sailed to the ears of the twins in the next class. He remembered how he was sitting in Math class when one of their female friends, Shirley passed a note over to them and since he was sitting behind them.
He saw how Mindy's body went rigid before the note was passed to Cindy whose body also went rigid before they both started to whisper too low for him to hear and yet he knew that it involved him somehow and when they both glanced at him, with pain, sadness, and anger in their eyes for the briefest of moments he knew something was up but he didn't know what because he had put the hallway incident behind him as just a childish thing that one had to put up with in school.
They did not share the next class, which was Gym because both girls were on the cheerleading squad, and so their gym activities were usually separate from his since he was on the Karate team. They were especially now because of his injuries so he spent the period in study hall.
Jesse thinks back to how he had been catching up on some homework and everything had been nice and quiet even in the halls. After nearly an hour he decided he was thirsty so he left for a nearby water fountain and found the very guy who had tripped and said mean things to him beaten up a little, mostly just two black eyes and upside-down with his feet in the trashcan.
After fishing out the guy, he seemed scared and apologized to him for tripping him before running off and running down the hall and out of the school. It was then that he sighed and knew that the twins had been behind this. The memory of their reaction in the previous class suddenly made sense to him.
When he later confronted them after school, and not during it because he didn't want to cause a scene. They had at first denied it but then Mindy mentioned something that he had not told them and that was when they spilled the beans.
Jesse made them promise not to do that again and to apologize to the guy the next chance they got. As it turned out that the guy was going to stay home for the rest of the week because of a cold, but Jesse figured it was because he didn't want others knowing what had happened and give the girls another reason to come after him.
Jesse remembers how the rest of the week was uneventful before snapping out of his remembering by Cindy walking up to him with a curious expression on her face. He hears her say, "Jesse? Are you ok?" before he shakes his head as if to shake the fog of memories free and says, "Huh? Oh, yeah CS, I was just remembering the past week."
Cindy frowns and says, "My sister and I will apologize you know... but it is a little hard to do when he won't even see us or come out of the house." She watches him chuckle and say, "I know that, but I was really thinking about just how boring it has gotten around here with no missions or anything to spice things up."
Cindy shakes her head and smiles just a tiny bit before saying, "I don't know, that last mission was enough excitement for me to last a while." She then slaps him on the shoulder to which he playfully goes, "Ow! Hey! I am an injured guy you know!"
Cindy grins and says, "Oh quit the act Jesse, I know that thanks to your super healing abilities you are just fine! Besides..." She smiles at her friend, "I already heard you kicked some butt in the karate class today."
Jesse chuckles before he says, "You heard about that already huh? Well, after a week of boredom it was a welcome way to add some fun."
Mindy says as she walks up, "Careful there Jesse or you might be mistaken for a bad boy and you know what we do to bad guys..." Cindy laughs and with a pause, the two girls then say in stereo, "We save the world from bad guys." with all three of them laughing.
(Meanwhile at a Zoo & Animal Research Facility)
A monkey in a cage was being very noisy as it screeched at the top of its lungs before jumping around, seemingly at random around the large cage. A man with blue eyes and blond hair cut in a buzzcut style frowned as even with the earplugs, he could still hear the monkey.
The man says loudly, "There better be a good reason that you had me bring our most noisy and wild animal here into the lab Anne!" He turns to see the woman standing there wearing a white lab coat with the biggest grin on her face.
Anne says, "Trust me Director, when you see this you will be amazed!" She picks up a small device and wraps it around her throat like a necklace and then says, "Be quiet!" in her normal voice.
The Director was slightly puzzled when all of a sudden he noticed that it was quiet. He turns back towards the monkey and while it was still jumping around like crazy, it was not screeching anymore. He says softly, "What the... How...?" before turning towards her and sees that grin of hers had grown even bigger.
Anne says proudly while walking over to the cage, "I have invented a way to control just about any animal in the animal kingdom! If it has ears, or can see, I can control it!" She says to the monkey, "Be still monkey!" and watches the Director's face as he becomes yet surprised again when it stops moving and is still quiet.
She opens the cage quickly, but the monkey doesn't move to leave and she says, "Just think of it! A zoo full of well behaved animals for the public!"
The Director's face changes into one of anger as he says, "I never authorized such a device or any experiments related to it! This kind irresponsibility just goes to show what I've known all along! You should have never been allowed to work here for as long as you have!"
Anne's face drops as she says, "But... Director Sam! Don't you see the good that this device could be used for? We could have animals come out so the public could see them instead of hiding! We could make even the noisiest monkey quieter for them!"
Director Sam says, "Yes! And ruin the animal's free spirit as well as destroy any kind of sense of realism!" He sputters and says, "We might as well just switch over to animatronics if I had really wanted any sort of controlled or well behaved animals!" He then approaches her and says, "I demand that you destroy that thing and then I want you to clear out of here! You are fired!"
Anne says, "B-but this isn't fair! I just wanted to help the Zoo become more profitable! Now you're firing me?"
Director Sam pushes Anne backwards into the open cage and says, "You are no better than some of those villains who wants to take over the world with such a dangerous invention like that! Now I expect to see you gone by the end of the day or I'll have security haul your ass out!"
Anne gets really angry, as she had only wanted to help and here she was getting slammed as a villain because of her greatest achievement! She had hoped that her invention would finally win her the respect and admiration that she had always longed for, as she had always been somewhat of an outcast in the scientific community. She also knew that being fired from here meant that the name Anne N. Mal would never be heard as this place had been the last chance place for her.
Director Sam says as he turns to leave, "I must have been out of my mind hiring you... I guess I let my judgment on your looks overcome what I should have known was wrong to begin with. I am glad I finally came to my senses in time!"
Anne knew that she was very beautiful and that had always been one of the stumbling blocks in getting anyone to take her seriously but that comment was the last straw! She thinks, "If it takes being a villain to get the recognition and respect I deserve... then so be it!"
She stands up and says, "Monkey, attack the Director!" as she points at him and sees him turn his head just in time to see the silent monkey leap out of the cage right at him with the sight of her looking furious on her face.
As the monkey attacked him, knocking him down the Director heard her say, "If it what it takes for a girl to get respect around her is a little ass kicking and ruling the world, then I will have to do just that!"
The Director's final thoughts before he feels like he is going to black out is, "Oh no... What have I done?" Then the monkey slams his head hard into the ground even as Anne laughs evilly very loudly filling the lab.
(Later)
The communicators for team Tri Stoppable go off and Cindy is the fastest to grab at her communicator. The other two are sitting down in Jesse's home with his sister in the kitchen, getting some popcorn for the movie they were all about to enjoy on the 42 inch screen TV with theater-quality sound setup in the living room.
Cindy says, "Hey, what's the sitch?" as she had always enjoyed saying whenever she saw her mother doing it with Wade.
Instead of Wade on the screen it was Clarise as she says, "Hey team, there's been a hit on the site. It looks like Middleton Zoo has been totally emptied of just about all the animals."
Cindy says as she frowns, "Any suspects in the case?" She pulls back a strand of her long hair from her face before Clarise shakes her head and says, "Afraid not and the only one who can tell you is in the hospital right now after what seems to be a monkey attack."
Mindy nods and says, "We're on the case" before she says, "Um...when you said, almost all the animals were taken, did that include...?" She was hesitant to ask but Clarise knew and she says, "Afraid so, they were taken too so that means you have to get them back as well."
Mindy closes her eyes and shudders as she softly says, "oooh, I hate that..." before opening her eyes and she says, "Still, a case is a case..."
Jesse's sister walks in just then with three mini-bags of popcorn and stops as she sees the communicators out. She sighs and says, "Let me guess... No movie?" With Rufina pouting and squeaking, "Aw! No popcorn!"
Cindy nods and says, "Sorry, it looks that way. It seems like someone went and stole almost every animal from the Zoo."
Jesse says, "Don't worry sis, this doesn't sound like a big mission. We'll probably be back in time for us to enjoy the movie you rented before bedtime."
She smiles at her older brother and says, "Well you better or I'm telling mom and you know how she can be." She almost laughs at the way her brother looked in distress before he says, "If you tell mom on me, then I just might let slip that you kissed that "Bug" boy at the mall."
Jesse just smiles as he sees her pale and say with wide eyes, "You... wouldn't! You know what mom and dad would do if they found out!" She then turns her head and pouts before saying, "Fine... you win! I won't say a word but just be sure to get back before curfew when they're due back. I am not going to cover for you if you're late!"
Jesse nods as he says, "No problem and we still have plenty of time before that." He grabs Rufina as she eats the cheese-covered popcorn and says, "Come on Rufina, time to go." He sees her trying to grab some more kernels so he grabs with his other hand the bag of popcorn and smiles at his sis as he says, "Something to munch on for the road."
Team Tri Stoppable runs out the door even as she shouts after them, "Be careful!" and then a quick "We will!" is yelled back before the door slams shut.
AN: Well everyone, I hope you enjoyed this chapter as I introduce a new villainess in the making. I'm sure you experienced writers have some ideas already about what I am planning with her but then I just might surprise you. Bwhahahahaha! Don't you just love the kind of friendship displayed by the girls for Jesse? What did everyone think of Clarise answering instead of Wade this time? Did anyone catch Anne's name? I tried to do the apparent Disney style of names for the KP show. What did everyone think of Director Sam? Anyone want to guess what the name of Jesse's sister is? Just remember the reasoning behind Shego's naming of Jesse and you'll probably figure it out but I'd still like to hear your guesses. Credits will be given at the top to those who are right.
