"Hey Wade, can you locate Monique for me? I've been trying to get a hold of her for a few hours now," Kim asked with a worried look in her eyes. Her GF always called back within an hour. It was scaring her.
Wade fidgeted in his seat, and it didn't go unnoticed by Kim.
"Do you know where she is?" she asked as her eyes narrowed.
"Y-Yeah… She had me arrange a ride for her…"
"Where'd she go?!"
"To meet 'Selene'…"
Kim's eyes widened. "She did what now?!"
"She had a suspicion as to who Selene was so she wanted me to find out… and she was right. She went to confront her a few hours ago. I haven't heard from her since," he said, worry in his voice. He'd been contemplating calling Kim for a while, but Monique had said to keep it a secret.
"Why would she want to go see Selene? Who did she even think it'd be? How could she be right? Is it someone I know?"
Wade bit his lip. "It… It's Shego."
There was dead silence on Kim's end for a moment before she said with anger dripping off her every word, "Get me a ride there… NOW."
"Got it," he squeaked.
A minute later she was picked up and well on her way to Shego's.
Her anger built up more and more along with her worry. Shego had been playing her like a fool for a long time, and now her best friend was missing because she'd went to confront one of the most dangerous criminals in the world.
As she landed she ripped off the parachute and dashed to the right apartment, bursting in without knocking.
"SHEGO WHERE THE FUCK IS MONIQUE?!" she yelled. Then she froze in an instant as all eyes went on her.
Shego was looking at her with a cocked eyebrow, Monique's eyes were wide in shock, and a blonde woman sitting across from them on the couch looked confused. She then noticed that Shego had an arm around Monique and her friend's hand was resting on top of her enemy's.
"Wow Princess, didn't know you had it in you to cuss," Shego chuckled.
Monique actually buried her face in Shego's shoulder in embarrassment. She had no clue how to explain her predicament.
The blonde just kept staring with the same puzzled look.
Kim slowly closed the door and continued to stare with a look of utter confusion on her face.
After a bit, Shego finally took the liberty of breaking the silence and said, "Take a seat, I'll grab you a drink." She stood up and gestured for Kim to sit beside Monique who looked absolutely mortified that Kim had caught her.
Kim jerkily took a seat beside Monique and looked at her friend in question.
Shego came back with a soda and placed it in front of Kim. She then pulled out a beer for herself and sat on a third couch, not beside anyone.
"Kimmie, this is Lauren, Lauren, this is Kim Possible. Ah, and to clear up the air, Princess and Monique happen to be best friends… but let's just say the two of us don't see eye to eye on the whole relationship. She thinks Mo shouldn't date someone like me, and I think the opposite."
Kim was at a loss for words still. She looked to Monique for answers, but her best friend was still too busy being embarrassed.
Lauren finally snapped out of her confusion at the explanation and said, "I agree with the redhead then! I don't think you and Monique belong together either! We're meant for each other!"
Shego rolled her eyes for the umpteenth time that day, and each time she grew less and less soft. "Look. You broke up with me, remember? You thought I had something going on with Dr. D. I mean seriously! That blue idiot? There's no way in hell we'd ever get together!"
"But since I broke it off with you, you must still have feelings for me right? That means I have a chance!" Lauren said. She used logic, but it was still a bit twisted.
Shego's eye twitched. "Holy FUCK Lauren! I got over you BECAUSE you broke up with me! Why the hell would I get back together with some crazy bitch who's going to break it off every single time you THINK I MIGHT be seeing someone else?! I don't fucking cheat on my significant others! I'm actually LOYAL in relationships!"
Lauren counterattacked easily, "I made a mistake! I know that I'm at fault for the break up before, but if we get back together I can make it up to you!"
Shego rolled her eyes again. She stalked over to Monique and swept her up into her arms saying, "I love Mo, you bitch! Can't you just get over it and get out of my fucking life! I'm this close to burning your ass! Just back off already!"
Kim was still just watching with a confused look on her face. While on the ride there she'd thought that Shego had lied about everything while the two had been talking online. Maybe she hadn't been lying completely, but what was with this whole 'Shego loving Monique' stuff?
Lauren started to cry and she stormed out of the apartment, slamming the door behind her.
Shego let out a sigh of relief and set Monique down, "Thanks for the help. When she leaves like that there's a good chance I won't see her for at least a month."
"O-Oh… um yeah," Monique replied.
Kim looked between the two with a look of utter confusion. She still hadn't put the pieces together and it was driving her insane.
Shego saw this and snapped a finger in front of the redhead.
"Hey, Kimmie. You ok there? You seem a bit out of it," Shego said with a soft chuckle.
"What… just happened?" the hero asked.
Monique looked at Shego who walked out of the room to give the two some privacy to talk. After that whole thing the green-skinned woman wanted to take a shower. Seeing Lauren always made her feel like she needed to clean off all the shit that her ex brought with her.
As soon as Shego was gone, Kim looked at Monique and her gaze hardened. "Ok Mo. I want answers, and I want them now."
