Shego thought she could go to sleep with this last happy memory but the doofus barged in the second her head hit her pillow.
"Shego! Come! Fast! I think something is happening!"
In a groan she got up again, in black shorts and a green tank top. She was annoyed, but at the same time, she wanted to see the results of her good work.
She followed him to the screen room where he pointed the video of Kim's bedroom, in which Kimmie was standing on the side of the bed while the buffoon was once again against the wall, with blood on his face.
She spotted the tail of the cat, hair raised, on the bed facing the boy.
With a smile on her face she slapped Will Du on the back of the head.
"You woke me up because the buffoon was attacked by the great cat?"
"I…I…with the way he screamed I thought they were being murdered!"
"Obviously not. It's just the cat showing him who is the boss"
She went back to bed with a big smile on her face, leaving behind the GJ agent a little at loss.
She wished she could have stayed to see the spectacle but she knew she'd have to be awake early in the morning to take her shift, and she hoped they would be tired as well and sleep on it. There was still hope for her to see it while she'd eat her breakfast.
Kim made her way to the other side of the bed, and grabbed her hissing cat.
"Ron calm down"
"Calm down! Calm down! You cat threatened me yesterday and tonight, she kept her promise"
It's true that he didn't look good, he had scratches everywhere, even his shirt was torn.
She didn't really know what to say to that so she went with the next best thing.
"Maybe you should go to the bathroom and put some rubbing alcohol on it, you never know with cat claws"
"You…you…"
He stopped there and started to make his way to the door, his back never leaving the wall.
Once he disappeared Kim turned all her attention to her cat.
"How did you do it? I've never seen you open a door before"
She was petting her cat to calm her down; she felt something strange.
She looked closely and she could see that the fur had been slightly burned on her side.
"What happened to you?"
The cat just meowed, then it started to get away from her arms.
She sighed and let her go; now she had to go see Ron.
She found him with a cotton ball on one of his wounds, wincing as he put some pressure on it.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm disfigured! First the ink and now I'll have scars for the rest of my life"
"Don't be so dramatic, she barely touched your face, though you might have some marks on your arms, these look deep"
"You think!"
She took a step back.
"I'd never thought it'd be possible, but this creature is just like Shego, you should get rid of her too"
Her eyes darkened before she went to him, and without a thought, slapped him.
His head was thrown back, and she got away from him, as far as she could in the bathroom.
The handprint on his face went from white to red in a few seconds while he watched Kim in disbelief.
"You hit me!"
"Leave"
Was all she said as she got out of the bathroom and went to her bedroom as fast as possible, locking the door behind her; she went to hide under the covers.
Shego wasn't completely awake when a coffee cut was put in her hands.
She mumbled a quick "Thanks"; she had planned to go see if there was anything good on the screens but she was stopped by the doofus.
"You should know that Miss Possible threw Mister Stoppable out during the night, and she didn't come out of her room since"
So she went to sit in front of the screens even faster, and here she was.
The princess was in her bed, all she could see was her red hair, but she could hear something, some words she couldn't understand.
The green woman turned her head towards the kitchen and spoke loudly.
"What happened?! Did she sleep at all last night?!"
The uptight man came in, his shift was over but it would be better for his mission if that woman had her answers.
"After the cat attack last night they had a disagreement and she hit him, then she went to bed, but she barely slept and when she did she was having what looked like intense nightmares"
Shego sigh, it bothered her, she couldn't help but wonder if once again she had made things worse.
Satisfied the GJ agent picked his coat and left.
After watching Kimmie like this for half an hour she did what she thought she should; she just hoped he would be there.
"Yes?"
"Nerdlinger you should call Kim asap"
"Why? What happened?"
"She had a fight with Ron and now she won't get up"
Kim heard a familiar tune; he wouldn't call if it wasn't important so she opened the drawer next to her and went throw it without looking in it.
"What's the snitch?"
"Kim? Are you okay?"
"Yes, don't worry. Why did you call?"
"To see how you were doing. Someone told me you had a rough night"
"I didn't think Ron would have said anything"
"Yeah Ron…well he did! So how are you feeling?"
"As always when it's about…her. And to help it I had nightmares again"
"Kim…you…"
He couldn't tell her what he knew; it made him feel even worse than before because he didn't tell her anything right away.
If things were different, if Kim wasn't in danger and if he was sure she would accept to be protected….
"Kim, I know you feel bad about what happened, but I'm sure Shego didn't expect anything less from you when she decided to do that to you"
He stayed calmed, which wasn't really easy with the thief on the other side of his screen, telling him, once again, that she had no idea Drakken had planned that.
"I think she said the truth, we had some kind of agreement; she wouldn't have done something like that to me. I feel bad because I've realized that I didn't react that badly because of what happened, but because it was her, I felt so betrayed"
Ok now he wanted to know what Shego thought, she had this strange expression on her face, something had to be up with her.
"I killed her because I couldn't control myself; I'll never be able to tell her I'm sorry, so sorry"
"Kim, we talked about that…"
"I know, no body means she might not be dead. But it was…Shego, if she was alive she would have done something I'd have heard off by now, anything"
"Kim, I…I know she is not dead"
She sat down so fast she hurt herself and stared at Wade.
"What?!"
"I found something on the GJ network about her, it was crypted but from what I decoded I understood that they have an operation going on, related to her"
"Why are you just telling this to me now?!"
"I just found out when you were in the hospital!"
"She…she…she is alive?"
"Yes, she is. I'm looking into it. I'll give you some news… as soon as I can"
And he logged off before things got any worse. Shego was going to kill him!
Less than five minutes after he had ended his conversation with Kim the green woman was calling.
There was no reason why he should be scared, after all she wasn't here, she was miles away and couldn't hurt him, now.
He tried to be logic, but it didn't matter he was a little shaky when he clicked on the answer button.
"Hey Shego…"
"You look strange, are you sure you're okay?"
Her voice was sweet, too sweet.
"I…I…"
"You are scared, well you'd better be scared! You've just blown it, once Cylcops finds out I'm toast! Which mean you will be too!"
She lighed up her hand to make the message very clear, but he thought the look in her eyes was worse.
"I…I'm…I'm sorry"
"Not going to cut it"
"I couldn't keep it a secret, you saw the state she was in!"
"Tell that to Doctor Director!"
"Fine, I will"
"You will?"
"Yes, you trusted me, and I'm the one who spoke to her, if anything I'll take the blame"
The flames went off, she was surprised, he had her back.
But she felt she had to say one last thing, at least for her reputation.
"Yeah! Well you'd better"
But she let out a smile when she hung up.
