It's been a while. Just thought I'd finish this story up sometime soon.

Chapter 16: Treacherous Waters.

Doctor Director was momentarily at a loss for what to do as she stared at Shego through the large glass window.

"You are scaring her," Director told Shego.

The grip the younger woman had on the trapped agent was deadly. The small woman struggled for oxygen, her face turning a deeper shade of blue every second that went by.

"You'll be a murderer," Director whispered.

Shego's eye's flashed with concern before going blank again.

"We've got to get in there." Agent Will Du told her. "I can do a manual over ride but that will take at least five minutes."

"We don't have five minutes," Director growled. She raced back toward the holding cell that held their rouge hero.

"You're master's a murderer," Doctor Director told the girl upon entering the room. The statement had the exact reaction she figured it would.

Kim Possible's easy going demeanor completely changed. Her body went ridged with anger as her dim green eyes turned to slits. Director kept her eye on the teen an noted she had instantly balled her hands into tights fists.

"No, She isn't." Kim hissed.

"She's killing someone as we speak," Director said. "Go see for yourself."

Kim's eyes shifted toward the door and back toward Director.

"Down the hall first door on your left," the older woman said stepping from in front of the door.

She let out a breath of air she hadn't been aware she'd been holding. When the younger women ran past her.

Will Du could do nothing but helplessly watch as his fellow agent's life slipped away.

"Shego," Kim muttered watching the scene through the same window.

"Don't just stand there," Will told her, just as Doctor Director entered the room.

Kim shook her head clear the feeling of fogginess that had over come her. She didn't know where she was, or how she had gotten there.

"What are you doing?" Kim called through the window. Her mind fought with it's control device as she banged on the thick glass. The older woman wouldn't even glance her way.

"She can't hear you," Director told her.

She pressed the intercom button.

"You're killing her," The wayward hero told her. "Not even Darken would want this."

Kim shook her head clear the feeling of fogginess that had over come her. She didn't know where she was, or how she had gotten there.

Shego dropped the cataleptic agent at the sound of Kim's voice. The mind controlled villain slowly turned to look at her. She noted the attire the redhead wore and growled in disbelief.

"Pumpkin?" Shego asked. The confusion was evident.

Shego's breathing became strenuous, as her heart raced at the realization that her silent defiant sidekick was her "princess".

"What's wrong with her!" The teen hero asked.

Shego doubled over as she hyperventilated. Her world began to grow dim. The older female lost balance and toppled, banging her head on the corner of the table before completely losing consciousness.

"Can you override the security system?" Kim asked Will, after checking her catsuit for her Kimmunicator.

"I'm working on it," Director said. The Global Justice leader opened the ventilation shaft and opened a small compartment with a hand full of colored wires.

"Please tell me you know what you're doing." Kim said. Watching the top agent take an unsteady breath.

"Wish I could," Director said. "I'm going with instincts."

Kim held in a groan.

"You are aware of the probable ramifications of this?" Will asked fidgeting.

"Oh only the security systems could shut down, all the doors on the cells open and we have a large problem on our hands," she answered. "or the doors could safety lock and then there is no possible way we could get in. There is always the chance,"

"Can you stop?" Kim asked.

"A chance you could just shut up and trust my instincts." Director finished. Then cut two of the colored wires and Kim sighed in relief as the doors slid open.

Kim checked the status of the fallen agent she appeared to be in good condition. The redhead then moved on to Shego, stepping over the puddle of blood from the gushing wound on her forehead. Kim checked her pulse and bit her bottom lip, it was faint but it was still there.

Doctor Director pulled the first aid kit off the wall near the door and came to Kim's aid. Expertly the doctor packed the wound and bandaged it.

"We've got to move them into the infirmary." Director said. She watched intently as Kim hoisted the unresponsive girl onto her back. The GJ leader picked up the fallen agent and began leading the way out.

"Get that wiring repaired," Director told Will Du on their way out.

"Where is everyone?" Kim asked.

"Passed the vault doors," Director explained. "Shego doesn't play well with my agents."

"What are they made of?"

"Eighteen inches of titanium," She answered. "we're technically in an indestructible box."

"How comforting," Kim said sarcastically. She didn't blame Shego for always trying to escape, they caged her as if she were some type of rabid animal.

"I know huh!" Director retorted. She typed in the security code and watched as the doors slowly slid apart.

Weapons turned on Kim, more accurately on Shego, the moment they were in sight.

"Hold your fire," Director called. She passed the agent she was carrying to one the unarmed officers.

"Escort them to sector seven and have Agent Connery looked over in sector four." She ordered and turn to Kim. "Behave."

Kim followed closely behind the agent that was leading them through many tangled corridors. It took them some time before the reached sector seven. It was behind another set of vault doors just like the ones that made the holding cells.

"What happened?" The doctor asked as they entered the sterile environment. "Surely she didn't look like this when she came in."

Kim got a strange sense of Déjà vu as she looked over the tall lanky woman. She didn't appear to be much older than twenty five and Kim was slightly worried about her abilities. She shook her thought away only the best worked for the G.J. .Age and skill had no correlation.

"She hit her head on the corner of a table."

"Ouch!" The doctor said, She turned and went through her drawers and pulled out a pair of gloves. "I'm Doctor Zephyrus."

"Kim Possible," Kim responded. "Is it serious?"

"Doesn't appear to be so, she's an incredibly swift healer." Zephyrus said. Kim watched closely as she cleaned the wound and looked it over closely. "Nothing to bad, possible minor concussion we'll see when she awakens."

The doctor bandaged the cut and removed her gloves.

"Surprised to see you in here as an accomplice…" She began. "Thought you were suppose to be a hero."

"I thought so too," Kim said rubbing her head. " Apparently someone else has other plans for me."

"And you're just going to let them have their way with you?" She asked.

"What choice do I have?" Kim sighed. She wasn't sure how she and Shego would get out of their current situation but she was sure they'd persevere.
