It had been three days since Kim Possible announced she was taking a break from saving the world, and GJ had not been impressed. But, taking the loss of Kim in stride, the Director herself said she would handle the world's villians for as long as she could, hoping Kim would return to the hero business as soon as possible.
Her parents had been thrilled, well, mostly her father had. Her mother just watched as her daughter seemed to fight her own internal battle. When they were alone, Anne asked her child what the issue was in private...
- Flash Back -
"Kimmie - Honey. Why did you decide to take a break from the hero business? You love being a hero and stopping the bad guy."
Kim looked up at her mother and sighed softly. "Ron and I had a fight. He abandoned me on a mission... I got mad at him over it and he said that I don't think of him as friend, or a boy friend, just an extension of myself that I can order around..."
"Ron will come around, you know this... But if you think taking a break from saving the world will help you sort things out, then take your time... You know your father and I will support you, no matter what you do," she smiled, kissing Kim's forehead, and left the room.
- End Flash Back-
With her extra time, Kim had caught up on her school work and was even starting to get ahead on it. She also worked a few extra hours with Monique, putting the extra money in a savings account so it could grow.
But she still had a lot of extra time on her hands, and started dabbling in video games. She had also spent time with her parents and brothers. But they had work and school, and she had eight hours were there was no one in the house, no one to talk to.
Going downstairs, Kim started to prepare herself something for lunch. As she was in the middle of putting together a sandwhich, the door bell rang out, the distinctive announcement that someone was at the door. Kim rushed to it quickly, slightly over-joyed that there was someone that would visit her, that she might even be able to talk to!
Opening the door, she had a giant smile on her face, but it fell when she saw the postal worker, standing authoritatively on her step. "Hello, I have a package for a... Kim Possible." The man said, reading the box with a smile on his face.
"I'm Kim Possible." She muttered dejectedly, while the man handed her a box and pointed to a spot on his clip board, offering her a pen. Signing her name quickly, she smiled at the man, nodded her head, and closed the door.
Kim headed back into the kitchen and put the box on the table, opening the card that was attached to the top. She stopped, looking around for a second to make sure no one was nearby, then read aloud;
"Dear Kim, thanks to you and your friend Ron, we have finally fixed the issue with the immersion caps. We have sent you and Ron the first two on the market. They're now fully fuctional and there are no issues with getting stuck in the game. So, enjoy, and thank you again."
The box was small, but what should she expect? She had seen the experimental model in the lab, and it was pretty small. Kim took the box and went back up to her bed room. Sitting down on her box she cut it open quickly, pulling out the cap and smiling. This was her answer...
She had enough free time she could spend it in Ever Lot, and it would get her mind off everything. It was only for a few hours, until someone got home, at least. Following the instructions, she easily hooked the immersion cap to her computer. Turning on Ever Lot, she sat down on her bed and laid back, slipping the cap on. Outwardly, she groaned as it first connected, but soon relaxed, and let her body lay still on her bed.
Kim could feel herself connecting to the game, no longer feeling the silky flow of blankets beneath her fingers, no longer feeling anything, in fact. Her nerves were sending ghost signals to her brain, even with the, almost spooky, lack of muscles and skin. Her eyes opened, no longer connected to her head, and bright lights flashed by her as she flew through a long tunnel. Soon everything went black, and in the back of her eyelids, she read the words; "Logging In..." The words faded away, and were replaced by an even grander title in elegant letters, reading; "Welcome to Ever Lot!" A bright light, no more than a pinpoint at first, expanded in her vision, like a train coming at her full steam. The white flash hit Kim's face, and she opened her eyes slowly, once more, blinking to adjust to the light as she looked around.
The world was bright, and all she could see was the sky and the sun as the terrain loaded. Blinking the spots away slowly, she sat up and her eyes went wide. She was high in a massive tree, sitting in an abandoned birds nest that seemed larger than her room. Through the leaves, she could she castles in the distance, and massive dragon-like wyrms flying through the air, hunting from the sky. Before her, the sun was rising on this new world, filling the sky with reds, oranges, and yellows.
She set off immediately, flexing her tiny wings just once before they sprung into action, always sending the unconscious impulse to beat. Even as she flew, almost like a bird, she viewed the world in Ever Lot like she viewed the real world, through her own eyes. Looking into a lake she came across, she looked over her reflection in the water. She was small, standing roughly seven inches tall. She still had her red hair and bright green eyes, but her ears were pointed like an elf's. She was wearing an oufit that looked like two leaves wrapped around her body, skimpy, especially for her tastes, and on her back was a pair of see-through, oval-shaped, wings, that twitched every now and then, urging her to fly. She could even move them up and down, almost like her own limbs.
Flying up once more, she yelped as she got used to her new wings, nearly 'tripping' in mid-air. Soon she was buzzing around wildly once more, until she froze as she spotted a pair of players talking about something.. Before she could get close, they moved.
The two jumped back and drew their weapons, earning an unnaturally loud hiss of metal across scabbard, getting ready for battle. One looked to be a warlock, and the other was an obvious warrior. With a feral battle-cry, the warrior charged at the warlock, his sword held high, glinting in the rising sun. The warlock started to chant, spinning her wand in the palm of her hand. The only warning was an intense crackle, a pulse that ran through her fingertips, before a huge blast of electricity shot from her palm at the warrior, sending him flying into a tree, that hardly seemed to survive the impact.
The warrior rebounded quickly, rolling to his feet and drawing his bow, an aging oak weapon. He quickly fired several arrows at the warlock, only the have them crackle and burst into flame, burning to a crisp before reaching her.
The warlock grinned triumphantly as she spun her staff above her head, the violet orb atop it shimmering like pixie-dust as it spun, and slammed it down on the ground with a thundering boom, causing the ground to crack and split between the warrior's feet. He held on as best he could, but within seconds the earth had crumbled beneath his feet, and he slipped into the depths of darkness, before the plates of earth closed on him.
"I win!" She yelled at the ground.
A muffled reply came back, causing the warlock to grin. With a wave of her wand, the earth beneath them shuddered, opening once more like the maw of an earthen creature. The warrior lifted himself from the ground, crawling up on his elbows to rest just feet from the lip of the hole, and panted heavily.
"Say it," the warlock teased, dancing forward gleefully to poke the warrior with her staff.
"You... Win." He grunted, before letting his head fall back on the ground.
Kim had seen enough of the playful duel, and quickly took off flying. She wasn't nearly powerful enough to take on either of them yet, but being her size, she doubted she'd ever have the power physically. She was, after all, a sprite-kin, a small fairy-like creature. She didn't mind it though, she was fast, and could weave through the thick forests and bushes like they were nothing, while other players had to take the long winding paths between them.
Buzzing through the forest, she couldn't help but grin wildly, feeling more free than she ever did on the ground. She knew that flight was only one thing Ever Lot gave her, though, and decided that now it was time to see what other powers she had. She ducked through the massive weeds, ending up in a clearing with just enough space to see a a small monster. It looked like some sort of mix between a hamster and a Pygmy bear, just 'inches' taller than her, though it could've well been feet as far as she was concerned.
This wasn't her first time in Ever Lot, though, and she already knew how to deal with things like this. She held her hands out and concentrated, flexing a fictional muscle that she couldn't feel in the real world, something just past her eyes, that required just the slightest bit of concentration to unleash. Her hands lit up, and a spark of energy launched from the air before her, more than a tiny fire-ball to a creature of its size.
The monster turned and growled in a mix of anger and pain, its side scorching just the slightest. With a feral squeak, it charged towards Kim, swiping wildly at her with its large claws.
Easily dodging the monsters attacks, she unleashed a flurry of tiny bolts, matching its wild swings with her own energy. Despite its obvious size and strength, the beast seemed like a slug compared to the normal people Kim fought, though a well armored slug. The monster's level wasn't even above Kim's, and the battle lasted only a few minutes before Kim worked through its defense. The monster soon fell to its side and faded away, first its flesh, then its skeleton, fading into a dark cloud of bits. In its wake were several things on the ground, glowing baubles. Floating down, Kim touched each item and watched it shrink and vanish, soon appearing in the small bag that was attached to the belt around her waist.
Unknown to Kim, someone was watching her from the bushes, a dark grin on his face. While Kim sorted through the monster's dropped treasures, the person snuck up behind her, his figure fading in and out of the air like a ghost, until he was close enough to slam a small, bulky, metal cage down on top of her. Kim found herself trapped inside before she could so much as yelp in surprise.
"Hey! Let me out of this cage!" She yelled, catching sight of a player's boot, now entirely sure that this wasn't just another monster. "You have no right to keep me in here!" Her calls were unheed, and she felt the bottom of the cage shoved forcefully under her feet. She jumped quickly, not wanting to get her feet caught or hurt against the sliding metal.
Soon the cage was yanked up roughly and she was face to face with the grizzled snout of an ugly troll like character, getting an in-depth view of his bulbous nose and lop-sided maw of uneven fangs. She was thankful, in that moment, that she hadn't enabled the 'feeling' or 'smelling' options, judging by the ugly yellow hooks of his teeth. "I have every right, squirt. Sprite-kins are the best creatures to sell, you enhance other people's powers. Warriors especially... Oh yes, I will find a wonderful player for you to work for..." He explained gruffly, swinging the cage once to get his point across. It was clear he thought of himself as 'the boss'.
She froze while he explained the horrible truth. She was going to be sold like a slave!? Why would the designers of Ever Lot allow such a thing!? She would so be filing a complaint to the creators about it, after reading the guide book of Ever Lot so she didn't look like a complete idiot.
"What do you mean I'm going to enhance someone's powers?"
The guy looked at her, his eyebrow raised high, before he started to unleash a rumbling laugh. "No wonder you were so easy to catch, you're a newbie sprite-kin!" He continued laughing, causing Kim to blush.
"Let me explain it to you then. You are a sprite-kin, a tiny little fairy creature that can't do much on their own because of your size." He stated smartly, obviously the kind of man who was interested in listening to himself talk, as well as show his greater experience. "But even though you're a small little creature, you're powerful, but to unlock that power you have to be with another player. Like a partnership. I'm a thief, I steal things and sell the for high prices, so my kind hunts your kind. Understand everything so far?"
Kim nodded as she sat down. She wanted to understand the game, and if it meant asking the guy who planned to sell her, then she would ask. Even if she didn't like the situation at all, there was little she could do to change it. Yet.
"Good," he said, interpreting her silence as cause to keep going. "Now, when I sell you to another character, you'll become bound to them. That means you can't leave them unless they allow you too. Sure, if they log out, you get to do whatever you want. But when they log back in, they have a choice to recall you back to their side.
"The best part is," he continued, waving the cage emphatically as he talked, "When you're with them, you double their heath and mana. At the same time, your strength and power is doubled, but they have to be a higher level than you to keep you. It stops low level characters dominating in player-versus-player realms." Kim took the jostling in kind, memorizing the simple-sounding rules, even as he finished and started walking. The theif brushed through the bushes, pushing himself hulkingly through the wilderness until they emerged on a long dirt path.
She could see a city at the end of the path, and new what was coming already. Still, she didn't know how long it would take to be 'sold', so she figured it best to get some things out of the way first. "So... If I'm bound to another character... Can another character capture me?" She asked, figuring it would be a good thing to know. After all, would she have to keep watching her back after this?
"No, unless your holder releases you, no one else can capture you. If they try, you'll be able to just... Well, escape, without any problems. If they do release you, then yes, you can be captured and sold to another. Sometimes your holder will sell you to another character instead of setting you free. It's beneficial to you and the holder, after all. They get their money back, and you get to keep getting your strength and power bonus'," he chuckled as he finished. Talking as much as he did, without a single breath inbetween, had given them the time to cross the 'mile' or so of dirt path. When Kim looked up, they were already passing the stone arch-way onto the main road in the village. People where yelling things at the top of their lungs all around them, shoved so tightly into spaces between the buildings that many seemed to be clipping inside each other. Vendors, hundreds of them, asking for prices that Kim knew as mind-boggling as they were buying and selling everything they could.
Pushing his way over to an empty stand, he set Kim down on the ledge and started to unpack his bag. He laid several weapons down across the wooden table, mostly large swords with their own shields. He even laid down some helmets and other piece of armor.
"As you can see, I'm a thief who steals for warriors. They make good money, cause they can solo fight most mobs, but to do that they need good gear, and I sell it to them for cheap." He suddenly grinned, leaning over her cage to look at Kim. "Except for you, you're worth a great deal to high level warriors, because you make them able to take on master monsters, the... Boss... Monsters. The ones that lead the mobs..."
Kim settled down in her cage, sighing as she resigned herself to her fate. There wasn't much a hand-sized, practically powerless, sprite could do against a cage designed just for her. Still, her emotions were slightly twisted over the thief above her, a mix of anger and obligation. This guy was teaching her a great deal about the game already, so at least whoever bought her wouldn't think she was a complete moron.
"Now, everything is set. Don't you worry, you won't be in that cage long." The guy smiled as he sat down on the ground and opened a book. He started to write idly, leaving Kim to watch people walk by.
In the distance, the pounding of hooves could be heard, even across the prattle of vendors to Kim's tiny cage. The crowd split apart, trying to push themselves even tighter around the buildings as a character came riding in on a massive black steed. The player was female, as evident by the curves of her body, and paying little to no attention to the stores or people around her. She raced by the shop, but slowed to a stop just meters away from Kim. Throwing its head back and whinnying, the horse trotted to the side, turning around until its dark red eyes were focused on Kim, and began to trot towards the stall she occupied.
Kim froze, looking over the giant character before her as she dismounted her steed. The woman wore a chest plate, cut short to show her midriff. The armor over one arm was black, and the other green, changing to their opposites at the edge of the sleeves. The colors met in the middle thanks to a single button.
The woman's pants had the same scheme as her torso, one leg was black and the other was green. The fabric was soft, and held tightly against the woman's legs. Stretching down from her hips was a purple half-skirt, covering a single leg as it ran down, stopping just before it touched the ground. Her boots were large, the same heavy metal as her chest-plate, one black and one green.
In her mind, she realized the color pattern reminded her of Shego. But why would Shego be playing Ever Lot? Shaking that silly thought out of her head, she pressed against her bars and craned her head up to see the person's face, only to see a dragon head helmet. The helmet covered the woman's head almost completely, though the lower jaw of the helmet had been removed to show the woman's mouth. The maxilla was still there, and still held black fangs that looked sharp and deadly.
The woman looked over the stall once, before turning her head down to regard Kim. Above the dragon's snout, she could see that the helmet was emerald green, and flared brightly in the light. The eyes of the dragon, covering the woman's below, were bright red, and above those were horns of a pure black.
The thief, finally glancing over his book, instantly jumped up and waved. "It's good to see you again!" He smiled as the warrior looked over his goods without saying a word, her head turning slowly back and forth, as if she was seeing if there was anything of worth.
Slowly, she looked back in Kim's direction and pointed at her. Reaching to her hip she pulled off a small bag of gold from her green belt and tossed it at the man. That done, she Reached forward and grabbed Kim's cage.
The thief looked at the bag and growled out, "You and I both know that a sprite-kin is worth much more then a single bag of gold." He said, reaching to stop her.
Before he could grab Kim back, he found a sword at his throat. The sword was wide and short, but it was sharp. Even though it barely touched him, trickles of blood slipped down his throat. He backed up slightly and growled, knowing he was no match from that alone. He had dealt with this warrior before and usually she would pay his price for the goods she wanted, but this time, she was cheating him out of a large amount of gold. Slowly the woman reached forward with her free hand and took Kim's cage.
Walking away, she got back on her horse, placing Kim's cage on its shoulders before she swung her legs over and mounted. The warrior dug her spurs into the horse's it's side, and they took off.
Behind Kim, she could hear the thief yelling about her being a thief, though all the sprite could see was a large grin on the warrior's face. As they trotted away, the woman attached Kim's cage to her belt with a small chain. But she had tied the cage to the front of her belt, which settled the cage between her legs. It would make the trip less bumpy for her new pet, she reasoned.
Taking off down an empty street ,the two were soon out of the city and traveling deep into the forest that surrounded the village.
Kim, who'd sat by and regarded the scene grimly, was worried. The person had bought her without saying a word and tied Kim to her belt. What made it even worse was she was bouncing between the woman's legs! The woman's thighs where holding the cage. "As if this day couldn't get any worse!" She yelled as she slumped in her cage, wondering when the hell she would get out.
