I've decided to upload another chapter today for Black Star Rising. I'm hoping you enjoy this chapter since its Ai's turn to get in the spotlight. I believe I've had her on hold for long enough, besides Ryoko, and Azula are going to need their time to shine as well.

I DO NOT OWN THE CHARACTERS INVOLVED IN THIS FANFIC. THEY BELONG TO THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS.

Ch.9 The Right kind of Wrong

"Shego has proven that she is a changed person, sure she still maintains her "girlish charms", she is not the same person you once knew. She has saved my life multiple times. If it wasn't for her I would be a slave to some maniacal madman right now." Kim said as she defended Shego. "Have you all quickly forgotten the events that took place in Middleton last year?"

The league took a few moments and talked amongst themselves. Kim had a point, while none of them had a clue to what was going on, it was Team Possible, which included Shego at the time that took down the alien threat.

"It's true." Hego said causing everyone to look at the monitor that held Team Go. "She remained calm and cool throughout the whole situation. It was like old times when we all were a team."

"Maybe you could let her slide just this once?" one of the Wego twins asked.

"I'll take full responsibility for anything she does wrong." Kim told the league.

Batman looked over to his fellow league members. "This is a fair trial. Maybe we should consider it." Wonder Woman suggested.

"We'll discuss this in private. Until then Shego is to be held in containment here on the watchtower until then." Batman said.

"But-" Kim was about to say before Shego interrupted.

"Fine. I'll wait." She said.

Batman nodded and Shego was escorted to her cell, while the heroes talked about what should be done about her.

Black Star HQ

Hours passed and everyone was assuming their duties, pushing towards the goal of world domination, when Lex walked into the room. All eyes feel upon the blonde woman, as Blackfire walked up to her with a smile.

"So how did it go?" Blackfire asked her.

"He bought it. Hook, Line, and Sinker." The blonde said as she morphed back into Mystique. She glared at Blackfire. "That will be the last time, I do anything like that you hear. Next time make one of the witches transform and do it." Mystique said as she walked away.

C Viper was typing away at the computer, when the clock struck midnight. She would not have noticed the time if the computer screen didn't start to glow red. She looked up from the screen.

"Ai, someone has a request for you." Viper informed her.

Ai suddenly appeared next to her. She looked at the name that was being displayed on the monitor and vanished.

Ai appeared in the room behind some middle aged man. The man turned quickly when he noticed her image in the screen.

"Are...you, Hell Girl?" He asked.

She stared at the man with her red eyes. "My name is Ai. If you truly wish to eliminate your antagonist, you must untie the red string. If you remove the red string, you shall officially enter into a contract with me. The one you seek revenge upon shall be taken immediately to Hell." She told the man as she held out a black straw doll, with a red string tied around his neck.

The man grabbed the doll and reached for the string. He was about to remove until Ai spoke up again. "However, if I deliver your revenge. I must have you make restitution to me. When one person is cursed, two graves are dug. If you accept the contract, your soul shall also belong to Hell. You will never know the joys of Heaven. Your spirit shall wander forever knowing pain and suffering. But that's only after you die. The rest is for you to decide." She said and then vanished.

The man hands began to tremble as he looked down at the doll, contemplating about what he should do.

WatchTower

After hours of debate, Shego was awoken from her sleep and brought before the league again. "We have talked it over and we all have decided to dismiss you of your previous crimes, provided that you continue to fight on the side of good. The side of justice." Wonder Woman said.

Shego nodded, and she was released from her shackles and escorted alongside Kim and Ron back to the ship that would take them home. The ride home was a quiet one, no one said anything to each other, except for Ron. Still that accomplished little in the long run. Wonder Woman dropped them off and bid them a farewell before returning back to the Watch Tower. Shego walked into the house and Kim quickly followed behind.

"Shego." Kim called out to her, but the pale woman kept on walking.

"Shego just listen to me." Kim pleaded to her. "I'm sorry Shego, I am, I-I didn't know- you have to believe me. I thought she was you."

Shego stopped in her tracks, her back still facing the red head. "After all this time, I thought you would know my touch by now. Was she better than me? Did you enjoy it?" Shego asked.

"What?" Kim said. She honestly did not know how to answer that. "It was all a misunderstanding. I was so worried about you, after what had happened. I was overcome by emotion and- and- I'm sorry Shego." The red head ended up repeating.

"Yeah, me too." Shego said as she went back to her room and closed the door.

Kim stood there in the hallway her heart breaking as Shego walked away from her. She slumped against the wall and slid down it as tears rolled down her cheeks.

Go City Hours later

As the sun began to rise over Go City a couple was still sleeping contently in their bed, well one of them was. A woman slowly rose from out of the bed as she looked over to her husband, who happened to be the man that received the straw doll from Ai hours earlier. She slowly crept out of the room, which didn't go unnoticed by her husband as he was feigning sleep the whole time. He silently watched as she slipped out of the front door and down the street. The man followed her until he saw her meet up with another man. Hiding behind a bush he watched as the two hugged and kissed, before they went to get some coffee together. His anger rising, he decided to follow after them and entered the coffee shop. He sat behind at the table behind them as he listened to their conversation.

"Does he know...about us?" The man asked.

"He doesn't know anything that he's not supposed to. Besides he was dead asleep when I left the house." The woman said.

"I got everything set up. I bought the tickets to New York and everything." The man told the woman.

The woman laughed. "And I have the money." The woman said as she pulled out a nice bundle of cash. "So when do we leave?"

"Three days." The man answered.

He had heard enough, the man pulled out the black straw doll and untied the red string. The black doll lifted into the air and immediately vanished. "Your Grievance Shall Be Avenged." A voice echoed out.

The man looked behind him, to see his cheating wife disappear. On her end, she was still sitting in the coffee shop, and as she took a sip of out of her cup she, the waitress bumped into her causing her to spill the hot beverage in her lap.

"God Damnit! Watch what the fuck you're doing!" She yelled.

"I'm so sorry! let me clean that up for you!" The waitress said as she turned to face the woman. When she did she saw that half of the waitresses face was exposing her skull. The woman got up frightened and screamed in terror.

"What's wrong?" She heard the man she met with say.

"H-Her face. L-Look at h-her face." She said. When she turned to look at the man, he had a giant eye in the middle of his face, which caused her to scream again as she ran from the table. She ran up to an elderly man who happened to be the manager of the store.

"What's going on? Is everything ok miss?" He asked.

She shook her head violently. "No! Everything is not ok! Those people over there are monsters!" She pointed.

"I don't see anyone." The elderly man said as he looked in the direction indicated.

The woman looked over in the same direction to see that the "monsters" were gone. "But-but-but they were."

"There, There miss. You must be tired, why don't you go home and get some rest." The old man said.

"Yeah, you're right, I'll just go home and rest." She said as she walked to the door. When she stepped out she saw that the world was seriously messed up.

Birds flying backwards, the sky was red, people riding invisible bikes and cars. "What is all this? What's going on?"

"Well to be frank, in a world where lies exist, nothing is as it should be." a voice said. She turned to see the giant eye was now on the door that she just exited from.

"What the- who are you? what are you?" She asked.

"I could ask you the same thing." The eye said. "Turn around."

The woman slowly turned and came face to face with a mirror. There she saw that her beautiful face was now horrid and scarred. "My face, what happened to my face?" She asked.

"This is the face of a liar. And liars are always such ugly people." She heard a woman say.

Looking to her right was a woman dressed in a blue kimono and her long black hair tied in a bun like a geishas. The woman stared on as she watched various parts of her skin disapper and reveal bone then, reappear with flesh again.

She backed away nervous. "I-I don't know what you're talking about."

"Oh no?" Another voice asked.

The woman looked to her left and saw the old man. "So you don't know anything about cheating on your husband?" He asked.

"You people are crazy. Just leave me alone, I want to go home!" she screamed.

"You heard her miss." The eye said.

The woman looked up to see Ai floating above her as she was wearing her black kimono with floral designs that flowed on it. The two stared at each other for a few seconds befor Ai spoke.

"Oh pitiful shadow lost in the darkness. Bringing torment and suffering to others. Oh damned soul wallowing within your sin. Perhaps, its time to die?" She said as she extended her right arm to her side. The floral patterns literally came off of the kimono and covered the woman, covering her in a blanket of darkness.

When she awoke again she saw that she was in a boat. She looked around her to see a dark and dismal world. "Where am I?" She asked.

She looked behind her to see Ai was ferrying the boat to some unknown destination. She began to panic. "Hey,turn this boat around. Let me off. Look I'm sorry, I wont cheat again I promise. Just turn this thing around and forget the whole thing." The woman pleaded.

"This is vengeance, so i am to ferry you to hell." Ai said as she took the woman to hell.

Back in the real world the man was walking home when he opened his wallet. He saw a picture of him and his wife back on their wedding day. He looked at it before tearing it in half and throwing the half with her face on it into the wind. He placed his wallet back in his pocket as he stopped by a window to see that there was a mark on his neck. A black flame mark was etched onto his skin, showing that his soul now belonged to hell.

The man stared at her for a few seconds longer then kept walking. Right now hell, was the least of his worries.

That's it for us today. Also that's pretty much how Ai operates. The way she sends people to hell can vary as well, most of the time its after she tortures them in some way or form, or she'll just upright kill you. To me she's the strongest person on Blackfires team, what do you y'all think. Just imagine if they found someone who hates Kim and Shego enough, and they decide to send them hell just by pulling that red string. Scary thought I know, but whose to say that it wont happen? Anyway leave a comment with your thoughts.
