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 9: Bravo!
Mindy says, "So it was just a coincidence that you were taking our younger siblings to the animal petting zoo when things went haywire, Mother?"
Kim nods and says, "Yep, and the four of us were enjoying it too until that woman calling herself Animal showed up and had to ruin things."
Cindy says, "Speaking of which, where are they?"
Ron says, "Where are who?"
Cindy looks a little annoyed as she says, "Our younger brother and sister?"
Ron smiles and says, "Oooooh, they're in the van. We locked them in so they couldn't get out while we went to defeat Animal."
Jesse says, "So while you were at the van making sure the kids were safe, we showed up and took care of things until the sn-um... incident" He had to be careful not to mention the snake because she still looked a little upset from the encounter.
Ron says, "From what I could see Jesse, it was a good thing we were here or there might not even be a mall anymore."
Just then a young girl's voice says, "Why not? What would have happened?"
Ron jumps and yells "Yah!" and lands in Kim's arms before turning to see Connie standing there all innocent-like. He climbs out of Kim's arms and says in a somewhat angry voice, "Connie! You know better than to sneak up on me like that! How did you get out of the car? And where is your brother? I told him to keep an eye on you until we got back!"
Connie puts her arms behind her back as she says, "Well, I wanted to watch you and Mommy save the mall... Since he was against the idea, he stayed behind..." (Scene in the van at that moment) Ronnie was all tangled up in many seatbelts and looking quite angry as he thought about how much trouble his sister is going to be in. (End scene.)
Kim sighs and puts her hand to her head for a moment, "Connie, I swear... sometimes I think you are part Houdini with all the escapes you keep pulling off." The little girl just looks up with those big eyes of innocence and says, "Who is Houdini? Is he a friend of yours?"
Everyone just looks at each other and wonder if she really doesn't know or is just trying to be cute. So Ron then kneels to be eye level with his young daughter and says, "He was a guy who was really good at making escapes from just about anything."
Connie smiles as she says cheerfully, "Just like Momma? In the talent show story?" which makes Ron chuckle before he says as he messes up her hair with his hand, "Yeah, something like that but he could do it without any of Wade's devices."
Connie's eyes seem to get wider in awe if possible before she says, "Woooow! He must be super-dupery good!"
Ron nods and stands as he says, "Yeah, he was the best ever." before Kim clears her throat, Ron quickly adds, "But when it comes to escaping super freak traps and battling the bad guys, even Houdini can't hold a candle to your mother." He doesn't have to even look to know that Kim is smiling at him in that exact moment.
Kim says with a smile in her voice, "Thanks Ron." before she walks up behind him and gives him a quick hug and a kiss on the cheek.
Mindy says, "What about the babies? Where are they? Where is Rufus?" Her last question was out of worry because of the animal controlling woman and the last thing she wanted was the family friend to be under her control.
Kim turns her head and says, "We left them with Monique, she insisted that we go when we had asked her to take the kids to here. Something about making memories with them before we get too busy with the babies. Rufus stayed behind to also help Monique with the babies."
Cindy says, "I still can't believe that with all of us here, the villain still got away!" She did not look happy and Jesse walks over to her and puts his hands on her shoulders soothingly as he says, "Don't worry CS, we'll catch them next time. They are bound to escape every now and then."
Mindy says, "Yeah! Just look at how many times the bad guy would get away from Mother and Father, but they would always catch them before they could finish whatever evil plan they'd thought up and so will we!"
Ron says, "That's the spirit Mindy! " which makes her smile big at her Father's praise.
Cindy nods as she looks at everyone, feeling a little better and says, "Yeah, you're right and the point is that we saved all the animals from her clutches this time. Now all we need to do is figure out where she is hiding almost an entire Zoo's worth of animals and we can get them back to where they belong."
Kim says, "We'll help too kids, that is if you guys don't mind too much..." Her voice was slightly playful at the end but at the same time told Cindy that their parents would be on the mission whether she wanted them or not to be.
Connie jumps in spot and clapping her hands as she says, "Yay! Mommy and Daddy are joining up with Sis's team! The baddie is in trouble now!"
Cindy thought as she watched her younger sister's excitement, "I guess so, but will the trouble really be for the bad guys or us?" She had her doubts that the team could mesh well together but she had to admit that on this mission there might be more snakes which would be a big trouble for her sister and knew her father was the best person to calm her down if that happened again. She then thought, "Might as well make the best of this." before she smiles and says, "Team Tri Stoppable and Team Possible-Stoppable, together to save the world. I feel safer already."
Kim could read her teenage daughter as she remembered very well her own past and knew from experience that things usually were not as bad as originally thought. She smiles back at her daughter and says, "I bet the world feels safer too Cindy."
Kim then looks down at Connie tugging at her leg as she says, "Can I come too? I wanna help safe the world!"
Kim shakes her head as she says, "Sorry sweetie but you are much too young to be doing a mission. Maybe when you're a little bit older you can save the world." This makes Connie pout and says, "But I wanna keep safe the world Nooooooooow!"
Ron says, "That's enough of that Connie, you know you're much too little! You could get really hurt and that would make your mother and I really sad. Do you want to see Kim cry? Or me?"
Connie looks up at her parents as she imagines her mother and her father crying as she'd seen them cry over different reasons in the past when they thought the kids weren't around. She slumps her shoulders in defeat as she says in a low voice, "No Daddy, I don't wanna see either of you cry."
Ron picks up Connie and holds her up as he says, "Now don't you be sad... Hey, I know! Because the mean lady messed up the Petting Zoo, how about I take you and your brother out for a big bowl of ice cream!"
Connie smiles big as she throws up her arms and shouts, "Yay! Ice cream!" before she hugs her daddy tight around the neck, rubbing her cheek against his before she says, "You're the best daddy in the 'hole wide world!"
Ron chuckles and says, "And don't you ever forget it!" before he taps the tip of her nose playfully which makes her giggle and say, "I won't Daddy!"
Kim says, "Let's go home Ron, remember we still have to pick up the babies." Ron nods and says, "Ok Kim." She says to Cindy, "Let me know if you find any clues, and we'll go over it after supper."
Cindy says, "Ok Mother, we won't be too long."
Kim grins as she says, "You better not, remember tonight is your father's turn to cook."
Jesse's eyes widen for a second and says, "Can I join you guys for dinner?" As he knows that Ron is as good as any five-star chef in the world when it comes to cooking.
Kim looks at Ron for a second who then smiles and nods before she says with a joking tone, "Sure Jesse, I'm sure you'll want to be there when we talk about the mission too." This makes Jesse say, "Um, yeah... I'll definitely want to be there for that."
Ron is half way to the exit before he turns and says, "If you want, I'll be making more than enough for you to invite your sister Jamie if you want."
Jesse smiles a little at that and says, "Yeah, she'll hate me if I don't invite her over for one of your meals... Thanks Mr. Stoppable."
Ron chuckles, "No problem, just remember supper time is at 7:30 so don't be too late or there might be nothing left."
Jesse nods, "No problem, we won't be late." Remembering a time when Ron had once cooked a meal and it had been so incredibly good that it was all gone in fifteen minutes. This had been a problem because he had gotten there a little late from a mission and got there only sixteen minutes late after when they had started. Ron had been nice enough to whip up a second batch of food for the hungry travelers though.
Once the parents were gone, the Tri Stoppable started to look through the mess for any clues where Animal had come from or where she was going that might lead them to where she had stashed an entire Zoo's worth of animals.
(Meanwhile)
Animal was at her lair just outside of Middleton and thinking that there had to be a better way of seizing control of animals for her army than to go visit them in person as she had discovered that there would be annoying heroes that would try to stop her. She did not want to be captured before all her hard work came to fruition.
Animal thought, "Yes, my plans must succeed. Then everyone who ever mocked me or looked down at me will know that it was folly to have ever done such a thing!" She thought about her life where all she wanted was for people to take her and her ideas seriously and not think she was some ditz because of her physical beauty.
It had been the last straw with her when the Director who had also been her last chance in the chosen field that she wanted to be respected in. She had found that she really liked animals and actually was really good with them as far back as the year when they forced her and everyone else to take biology. She had remembered about how she thought she was going to hate the class and ended up loving it far more than any other class.
She trembled in rage as she thought about how easily the Director had been willing to so casually throw her dreams... her life away because he didn't like her invention. She knew that she would show him, she would show the whole world and if anyone... even those teens that she'd met at the mall got in her way again, she would make them very sorry... very sorry indeed.
Then it struck her, why had that girl who was glowing like a big blue monkey been able to be controlled and not the other girl? What exactly was it that she'd seen. She knew she could ponder it all night and never get any answers so she decides to do something she was very good at, research.
Walking over to a nearby computer with Internet connection, she decides to look up all the information that she can and see if she can get a few answers about them. It isn't long before she gets the information that she needs but there were still gaps in her information that she could find.
She needed to find someone, preferably someone in the villain community who would be willing to share their knowledge about mystical powers and help her better control the girls the next time she ran into them.
She finds someone called Monty Fisk AKA Monkey Fist but he was listed as retired from the whole villain thing so she continues by expanding to see who else would know about mystical powers and then when she finds her answer she throws her head back and laughs very loud and evilly which causes several animals within hearing range to go berserk. They make loud noises in response as if to ward it off, knowing on an instinctive level that it was evil, a very threatening evil sound and they were scared of it.
AN: Well, I hope everyone liked this chapter. Now you know where Rufus was during all of this. The question I guess is... How did Connie do that to her brother AND escape a locked van? Lol, just being a kid I guess. She is quite the handful isn't she? Looks like Ron's cooking skills have only continued to improve, would you want to eat Ron's cooking? What do you think of Ron as a parent? Anyway, as you can all see Animal has something up her sleeve and it does NOT look good for team Tri Stoppable! It just may turn out to be a good thing for the girl's parents to have joined up with them. What do you all think?
Next Chapter Info: We find out what Animal found to laugh so evilly. More trouble ahead for Team Tri Stoppable! scary music plays To find out more, stay tuned for further chapters:)
