Ch.22 The last Straw

"Now if you want the real Lex I want you to listen and listen good." Morrigan said.

"Why should I listen to anything you have to say?" Jacob questioned the succubus.

Morrigan snapped her fingers and two bats flew in and dropped a remote control in her hand. She pressed a button and the portal came to life, but more importantly it held an image of Lex in it. Morrigan then began to glow and as she did, she created a copy of herself.

"Because if you don't I'll kill the real Lex in not just that dimension, but all others as well." She threatened.

Morrigan looked over to the weakened Mystique. "As for you, I don't know how you survived, but I'm taking you back to Blackfire so you can be properly dealt with." Morrigan.

Mystique looked up and over to Jacob, who glared at him. Jacob then looked back to Morrigan. "What do you want?" He asked.

"Only to rid my dear Blackfire of those to harlots Kim and Shego." Morrigan said. "Being a smart man, I'm sure you can think of a way to do that for me." Morrigan smiled.

Jacob looked back down to Mystique. "I'll do it, but one condition. I'll need a few supplies and I'm going to need her assistance." Jacob said pointing to Mystique.

"My dear boy, that's two conditions. One of which I cannot comply with." Morrigan protested.

"Well I think it's an even trade, since I handed the vial back to you. Plus killing Shego for you, in exchange for Lex's safety makes two." Jacob replied.

"Well played boy, I'll grant you this two things, but I don't see what Mystique can do to aid you. Unless it's her body you seek "assistance" from." Morrigan said with a sly grin.

Jacob only smiled back as Morrigan closed the portal behind her. "I expect to see results Mr. Matthews." She said before flying off with the vial.

Jacob looked over to Frank as he reloaded his gun. "You're not going to seriously comply with that woman's conditions are you?" Frank asked.

"I have a plan, unfortunately it requires doing half of what Morrigan wants me to do." Jacob said as he let out a sigh.

"And where do I fit into this equation?" Mystique said as she walked up behind him.

Jacob turned and pulled the gun on her, placing it to her forehead. "You've gotta a lot of nerve pretending to be my Lex all this time. I should blow your brains out right now, but I need your help." Jacob said.

Mystique kept a calm composure. "I deserve a lot more than a bullet for the things I've done. Still I had to assume her identity so you wouldn't give Blackfire what she wanted."

"Why are you betraying Blackfire? What's in it for you?" Jacob said as he kept his finger firmly wrapped around the trigger.

"My freedom. I never wanted anything to do with Blackfire. In truth she promised me a shot to get revenge on Shego for betraying me years ago. I got nothing in return; the only person I managed to kill was Wonder Girl." She explained.

"You don't sound the least bit sorry." Jacob said.

"I'm not. It's not the first time I've killed someone. Still that's a story for another day, tell me what I can do to gain my freedom." Mystique said.

Jacob nodded as he put the gun down and turned to frank who was packing his equipment. "Frank?"

"You're going to need help kid, so I might as well tag along." He said.

"No, this is between me and Shego. Still for what I'm planning I will need a few things." Jacob said.

Frank smiled. "Sure thing kid, I just have to make a phone call."

JLA Watchtower

Kim and Shego were aboard the JLA Watchtower, since being placed under JLA protection. Wade, Tiara, and Ron were there as well. Kim, Shego, and Ron were in the training room with Vixen. Ron meditated as the three women finished their sparring.

Kim was knocked down as Vixen charged her and hit her with the strength of a bull. Kim sat up and shook her head.

"Best three out of five?" Vixen asked.

"No, I'm good." Kim chuckled. "Thanks for the sesh, though."

"Anytime Ms. Possible, I mean Mrs. Go." Vixen smiled.

"That's right." Shego said. "So don't go and be getting any funny ideas." Shego said as she wrapped her arm around Kim's waist and pulled her in close.

"You don't have to worry about me, I'm sure I'll manage." Vixen said with a smile before leaving the training room.

"Hey go ask your side kick if he wants to finish sparring." Shego said.

"Shego, you know how much I hate to share you. Why can't we just-oh I don't know go have our own private session."

She smiled, when she saw Shego's expression. "I think it'll be nice to get our minds off of this whole Black Star nonsense for a bit." Kim suggested.

"I don't know Kimmie, I wont rest easy until they are all dealt with. I mean they could be anywhere and Jacob is too." Shego said.

"I wouldn't worry too much about him." Kim said as they went to grab their gym bags.

"Why? What happened?" Shego asked.

Kim just smiled as she slung the bag over her shoulder. At that time Kim's cell phone rang, she looked to see that the caller I.D. said the call was private, though she had a pretty good guess of who it could be. Kim walked off a bit before answering the phone.

"Hello." She said.

"It's Frank." The voice said through the phone.

"Frank? Well that was fast did, you find Jacob?" Kim asked.

"Yeah, I found him." He replied.

"So is the problem dealt with?" Kim asked.

"That's just it. I'm calling off the hit." Frank told her.

"What you can't do that? I gave you a job and I expected you to follow through with that Job." Kim said as she tried her best to keep her voice down.

"Kim things have escalated to a point where they're much bigger than just one man. I'm sorry but I can no longer.."

"Fine." Kim said cutting him off and hanging up the phone. "Thanks for nothing Frank." Kim muttered.

"Frank?" She heard Shego say and turned to see the older woman standing right behind her. "The only Frank I know of is Frank Castle. Kim don't tell me you got the god damn Punisher involved in this."

"I did it, to be finally rid of Jacob. Aren't you tired of him constantly trying to kill us?" Kim asked Shego.

"Kim, have you forgotten he left Black Star?" Shego asked.

"Have you forgotten he tried to blow us both up along with our house!" Kim said raising her voice.

Ron and Rufus opened one eye and looked over to Kim and Shego. "They're at it again." He said. Rufus shook his head in disappointment as they went back to meditating.

"Shego, he put a gun to my head. A gun. If it wasn't for these powers I'd be dead right now." Kim told her. "Why can't you wake up and see the man for who he is?"

"I'm not having this conversation again." Shego said as she walked past Kim. "Find me when you've calmed down."

"Find you? Where do you think you're going?" Kim said with a hint of anger.

"Where ever I god damn please." Shego shot back. Shego walked to the door to and before she could open a bolt of white plasma struck it. She turned to see an angry Kim fully ignited.

"If you're going where I think you're going. You can forget about it." Kim growled.

Shego dropped her gym bag as she turned to face her angry girlfriend. She looked into Kim's angry eyes and could tell there was something she was hiding, something that Kim was afraid to let happen. Shego flared up as well.

"Kim, you've had this coming for a long time." Shego said.

Rufus panicked as the two super powered women engaged in battle. He began to pull on Ron's collar telling him to do something.

"I hear you little buddy. I feel like I should do something, but I also feel like this was going to happen sooner or later. I also feel like if I interfere it's my behind they're going to kick and I like my behind currently where it's at thank you very much." He told the rodent. "Besides they wont hurt each other. No matter how mad they get at one another."

Shego jumped over Kim's leg sweep, and tried to chop her with her right hand, Kim dodged it and rolled to the right. She threw a bolt of plasma that Shego side stepped, and she rushed the red head. Kim countered Shego as the pale woman went for a left hook. Grabbing Shego's left arm she brought around to Shego's back before kicking her away.

Shego felt her left arm go numb, it wasn't broken just a side effect of making contact with Kim. This time it was Kim's turn to rush Shego, and she barely dodged the red head's attack. Kim had gotten much faster and she didn't want to risk getting hit, so she quickly lashed out with her left leg, hitting Kim in her midsection and knocking her back. Shego's left leg started to go numb, but she didn't let that stop her and she collided with Kim.

"Kim what's wrong? You're not you, you're not my princess. You're not the woman I fell in love with." Shego asked.

"You're right, I have changed. But it's so I can protect you, so I can be strong for you when you're not strong enough yourself." Kim said as she began to push Shego back.

"But being strong for each other doesn't mean we have to become monsters in the process." Shego said.

Kim eyes widened and then she lowered them. Her plasma dissipated as she backed away from Shego. Shego thought about what she had just said.

"No, Kimmie I didn't mean it like that. You're not a monster." Shego said apologizing.

"Shego, I'm just scared. I don't want to lose you." Kim said as she wrapped her arms around herself.

"You're not going to lose me. I can promise you that much." Shego said as she pulled the red head in close.

"Shego, when I went to their base, Blackfire told me it was a trap." She said.

"A trap? What are you talking about." Shego said as she lifted Kim's chin so she could look the red head in the eyes.

"She had it all set up. The island the fight with XeYori, it was all her doing. She turned me into a super soldier so that I could aid her in taking over the world." Kim told her.

"She said what?" Shego had heard enough, Blackfire was intentionally making her princess suffer and she was going to raise hell the next time they met.

"She also told me that when my powers merged with the serum, I became unstable. She said that it's you that allows me to stay sane, and if you were to die I would snap and become a monster." Kim sobbed, Shego could tell that she was truly scared. Hell Shego was scared for her, she knew Kim was hiding something, but she had no clue it was something of this magnitude.

"I think she was right. When I think about Jacob, I just get so angry I can't think straight. I don't mean what I say about you, I just don't want to lose you." Kim told her in a defeated tone.

Kim couldn't see it, but Shego was pissed on the inside. She took everything that made her princess perfect and turned it all upside down. Right now she had to focus on Kim, and the first thing she did was place her lips on Kim's. She gave a tender, loving kiss, but more importantly a promise to always be there by her side for better or worse.

Kim passionately returned the kiss. She needed it, it reminded her of how deep her love for Shego is, and how deep a connection that have forged in their time together. She pushed Shego up against the wall as she sucked on her neck. She began to remove Shego's tank top which was blocking the way to her lover's breasts. Kim wanted no needed to hold the mounds of flesh in her hands before suckling from them like a newborn baby. She tossed the dark green tank top to the ground as she grabbed firmly onto Shego's left breast with her right hand and suckled on the right. Shego moaned as she allowed herself to ride the waves of pleasure her red headed vixen was giving her.

The next thing Shego felt was Kim's hand reaching down into her shorts and caressing her core. She slowly slid down the wall as she let out a long moan from the combined might of Kim's actions. She stopped Kim, which prompted a saddened look from the red head.

"My turn now." Shego said hungrily as she lifted Kim's shirt and immediately began to suck on her breasts.

"Ya know, there is a naked mole rat present right?" Ron said as he covered Rufus' eyes.

Shego just flipped him off as she continued to suckle from her princess.

"Not to mention the cameras the JLA keep in here. They can see you." Ron added on.

"Then let them watch." Kim responded. "I need this." She said before going into a moan.

Ron sighed. "Ron care to explain why there are puddles of cum all over the League's gym floor?" He said trying to sound like Batman. "Uhhh, I don't know because Kim and Shego promised to rip me a new one if I tried to stop their "Bonding"." Ron answered and tried his best to go back to meditating.

Elsewhere Morrigan waited patiently for C Viper's return. She felt a wave of relief wash over her when the red head walked in the room with the vial.

"So can Blackfire still use it?" Morrigan asked.

"No. One this isn't even blood, its juice. Jacob played you honey." Viper said.

"Juice? Juice! Oooooh I'll make him regret that decision." She said as she turned to leave. She opened the door, to see Blackfire on the other side.

"Morrigan I've been looking everywhere for you." Blackfire said.

"Sorry love, I've been tracking the traitor and I'm going to kill him now." Morrigan answered.

"No that won't be necessary. It's time for us to make our move." Blackfire said with an evil grin.

GO Tower

The sun was setting in Go City as its inhabitants were thankful that they could enjoy a day of peace without some threat of another super powered attack. Mego was busy watching the monitors as it was his shift, and he hated nothing more than this. Nothing was going to happen, nobody tries to attack Go Tower except for Aviarius, but he's been locked up for months. He just happened to glance at the monitors to see two forms walk up to the main door. A man and a woman, he smiled upon recognizing the woman's face.

Mego pressed a button and sent an elevator down to the pair waiting down below. Seconds later he heard a ding and out stepped Shego and Jacob. Mego welcomed them in before taking a seat back at the desk of monitors.

"So sis, what brings you by at this time of day….night….whatever?" He asked as he looked outside.

Shego smiled. "I just thought I…drop by."

This is the end of this chapter, and we're almost at the end. What move could Blackfire be speaking of? Tune in next time for the next chapter of Black Star Rising. Oh and if you have any requests for the Vs Stories feel free to let me know.
