Rogue Life
Shego flop down in the sofa that the Director is currently occupying in the
older woman's office "what do you want...you can't be done with the exam that quickly"
"nothing and am, you need an upgrade to something deadlier"
Betty sit up "first get off my damn feet you cutting the circulation, second remember
your not human and third in reality you are the most deadly thing in this world, your just lazy"
Shego smirk "you got that right...so when will I know what squad I'm in"
her friend stand and rub her forehead "well in your case I guess I can let you know now, even if
it's against normal protocol" Shego laugh "it's weird for you to be mentioning anything between us
as normal, considering what we are" Betty groan "always the patronizer...you wanna know or not?"
Shego wave her off "you'll be getting your own squad of people like you, outcasts, you get to pick
and choose from any peculiar applicants starting..." she grab a thick, disorganized folder and drop
it on the sofa beside the emerald-eyed female "with these, a few were taking the same
none deadly training with you this week" Shego pull out the first applicant "nice a fire user,
they'll be fun to test out with my own exam" Betty roll her good eye "just try not to kill them when you
test them...please" "wow Bets so unlike you to say 'please'" "also with you and the word 'sorry'"
Shego grab the folder "touche" she disappear from the room
Dawn approach on the small community and still no word from the ladies inside the finally quiet room, the servants that are taking over the morning shift spot the quincy of sleeping siblings along with the young redhead walking out of her room to get in some sunrise exercise, she walk back in her room, grab her comforter and place it on the huddled up siblings then head outside the servants witnessing the act murmur among themselves while going on to prepare things and clean things for the head family
A few minutes after that act of kindness shown by Kim, her mom walk out Shego's room, to get some rest before it's time to change the dressings on plasma-wielder's body, but she's halted by the once sleeping siblings as they bombard her with question after question about the state of their sister "wait...hold it...let me just...quiet!" she order in a firm tone "thank you and to answer your questions, Sanai is fine, but she's in an immense amount of pain, she's just sleeping right now, we'll get something for her pain until then I'll keep it at a minimal and no I advise you not to visit her for at least a week she can't risk her wound becoming infected, I'm sorry but that's how it has to be, although Betty is trying to get a portable clean room here, if she can get it here before a week is up I may allow you five minute visitations" she walk off to her room across the hall
the siblings look at the door again and the purple-hue male sigh "we should go to our rooms as well since there's nothing we can do for a week"
"who died and made you king, Mato" one match-head ask heatedly
"no one Wei, but you heard Ann there's nothing we can do until Bets get that clean room"
the other siblings sigh reluctantly "he's right until then all we can do is hope she won't be in too much pain" Channing comment then sniff "so let's do as Mato says, because knowing how Betty work, she'll have that thing here today" if only Channing knows how wrong she is, because later that same day that siblings overhear Betty tearing someone on the slim headset a new one...mentally speaking
"no you incompetent baboon I said three case load of serum CXS3 and one case load of Anti9E along with the bubble with Special Agent Du...it will take you precisely how long?...we don't have three days to wait for more of CXS3 to be fabricated, you weren't suppose to be using any of it without my explicit orders, yo-oh really?" she ask sweetly "that was over five years ago doctor now you have one day to reproduce another case load of CXS3 or you will wake up in an asylum, with an amnesia under someone else's name...got it?" she push a button "Will remember this if you are not here by this time tomorrow, make sure lead scientist Palo is erased from all data banks and in an institute, no memory and under a false name and if you screw up in fulfilling your duties...you'll be right there alongside him" she growl and push the same button twice "hello Father as you may have already noticed, you're in charge until further notice"
"understood, but as you may not have noticed or been told...the Board of GJ Selectives are not happy about the current situation regarding the Lieutenant and are thinking of terminating her seeing as she has become a liability after displaying her unique hidden ability"
Betty groan and pinch the bridge of her nose "I'll deal with that when I return, until then I'll be here with more important duties" she push push the button on the ear clip, effectively shutting the headset down and retracting the micro-microphone extention "damn scientists" she murmur
"Bets" Shego call in a very weak voice, barely even a whisper, before she goes into a coughing fit
Betty turn to her "yes what is it?"
Shego open her eyes "get...get me..." Betty kneel by her side "Kim...I need to see her...important"
Betty rush out the room and across the hall, knocking vigorously on the door "Princess Kim I need you!"
the door open, but instead of the intended redhead she want the other answer, though in a jumbled mess, but she look as if she's wide awake "what is it, has something happened to Sanai?"
Betty shake her head "where is your daughter?"
Ann scratch her head, she may appear awake, but her mind isn't not yet anyway "oh...Lady Cheyenne took her to her study" Betty take off running to her next destination "hmm...I wonder what Elizabeth wants with Kimmie?" she shrug and decide to go back to bed.
Betty skid to a stop as she nears the study, walk calmly the rest of the way and knock civilly on the door frame effectively gaining both women's attention, she bow slightly to them "excuse me my Lady, but Princess Sanai would like to see Princess Kim"
Cheyenne look back at Kim and smile "looks like she's starting to need you, go on"
Kim narrow her olive eyes, but follow Betty out anyway "what does she want with me?"
"I may be her friend, but it's not my obligation to ask and she can chose to inform me or not, same with you" Kim's jaw tighten, she does not have a good feeling about this, even when they reach the room the feeling intensify "are you going to go in?"
Kim continue staring "I'm a little apprehensive"
Betty raise an eyebrow "you've faced madmen on a daliy bases, but your suddenly scared to face one incapacitated woman?" she smirk "that's not like you at all"
olive eyes glare at her "don't patronize me"
"yes P..." she laugh "Kim"
the redhead take a cleaning breathe, open the door and close it behind her then turn to the figure on the bed and gasp, never in her short life has she seen anybody as bandaged up as her commanding officer "Kim...can you...come over...here"
Kim slowly walk over to the other side of the room almost as if she's scared and stop at Shego's feet "what no Kimmie, Princess or Pumpkin?"
Shego try to smile and shake her head, but grimace while grabbing the sheet "no, you're currently already a Princess, no...I just wanted to get one last final look at you and talk to you, before I dismiss you"
Kim groan "look Lieutenant I've had enough of being jerked around and kept in the dark, so can you just cut to the chase" she's still pretty pissed at Shego for doing this to her without caring for her feelings
Shego grimace in pain once more "look I didn't...call you here...dammit!" she groan
Kim becomes worried "I-I'll go get my mom"
"no!" Shego grunt forcefully
"but your in pain and this will end, so much quicker if you weren't"
Shego chuckle lightly "thanks for your concern, but I'm fi...fine back to why I called you here...listen I can understand your feelings about what I...had done to you...and what Bets and Ann told you...is true, I did bite you to save your life...and because I loved you 'still do actually,' but for once in my life...I'm being selfless...and releasing you to protect you"
Kim stare at her for awhile in disbelief then laugh "you're going to release me to protect me..." she laugh again "I don't know if you know this, but I'm a world famous hero that knows sixteen different styles of kung-fu, I think i can handle myself, so you can keep your sympathy, I don't need it!" she snarl and walk over to the door
"Kim you have no idea what The Council can and will do to you...this..." she sit up and her bandages fall off her nude form revealing a full body Chinese dragon-shaped skinning that start at her left ankle, travel up her calf, circle her thigh, hips, torso and the open mouth end around her neck as if a real dragon has her by the neck "...was my punishment for my own disobedience and to bind me to The Council, just for asking them to not to drag the most important people in my life there to suffer the same. I have comet and unlimited and unearthly powers from a dragon spirit, so don't tell me you can protect yourself, I may have sold my flesh and life to The Council to keep you safe, but they could still change their fucking mind just spite me, to show me whose really in control of my fucking life...GOT IT!" after that outburst her body succumb to the pain it ignored and she fall on her bed, screaming in dire agony
Betty and Ann burst in the room to aid the plasma-wielder while Ann start on Shego, Betty escort Kim to the door then turn to assist the doctor "what were you trying to do Sanai...die from shock and excessive bleeding!" Ann ask firmly "I told you not to work yourself up this soon, by trying to talk to my daughter" she help Shego back on her back, who start hyperventilating and grabbing the sheets in vain, trying to think of things elevate her pain, but it's not helping and she can't ask Xing to help The Council forbid all discussion with her until Shego heal on her own, the only thing Xing can do is keep Shego alive to suffer, Ann place her hand on the green woman's uninjured chest "Sanai...Sanai, you need to calm down and slow your breathing, I understand it's hard to do, but you have to try"
it takes a few minutes of coaching, be slowly and surely Shego's breathing calm down "now as painful as I know this is, we'll need to flush your wounds again and as you know the ink can't be removed"
the injured woman's mouth move as if she's choking on the words, but after swallowing she can voice her thoughts "I-I know that...was t-the point...my comet powers w-w...would've erased all...all...all evidence, so...so the Queen wanted t-the...mark to b-be permanent for as...as long as I'm alive a-and...their property" she try smirking the same condescending way she always show, but it's pained and forced "I-I'm nobody's property...if I wasn't in so much pain...I'd destroy them myself, but...I guess that'll ha...have to wait...huh?" her voice fade off as she pass back out again
Ann side heavily "as short-tempered and determined as always"
"plus she's the queen of holding a grudge...I hate to be The Council, but..." Betty sigh as well "I just hope she heal quickly from this like so many other injures she obtained over the years"
"we can only hope" sky-blue eyes look up at the one-eyed woman "have Will contacted you yet?"
Betty smirk "yep just before I placed the shield's back up"
Ann chuckle and shake her head "you and your toys, let's get to work."
