Kim Possible: Super-Girl

By LJ58

16

Kimberly waited until the front yard in front of her parents' house was almost full before she opened the door.

Her team, Annie included, all followed, all dressed in the new blue and gold power-suits that used her own costume's colors, only without Kal's family sigil or her cape. Only Shego kept her own colors, but everyone knew her, and no one doubted who she was when she walked out alongside Kim as she led the way right to the makeshift podium the media had set up for her at her instructions.

They had not been giving many informative interviews of late, but Kim had called in a few friendly reporters she knew, and assured them a genuine exclusive that would be a genuine bombshell.

Since Allen Smarte knew her well, the reporter believed her.

Kim glanced back briefly, ensuring her parents were still in the house.

While she would have liked to have them present, she was not going to take any risks with their lives as she revealed what she knew would be a shock to anyone hearing her. There were still a few lurking snipers out there, after all.

If necessary, her parents could talk later, at their leisure, so long as Kim was assured it was safe.

For now, she felt not unlike she was stepping into a villain's lair, and everything was about to explode around her. She briefly clenched her fists as she paused before the podium, eyeing the microphones before her, and then looked to meet Allen's attentive gaze as he waited patiently for her to speak.

Some of the others looked ready to blurt out the usual inanities, but she beat them to punch by clearing her throat, and speaking up first.

"Thank you all for coming. I'm going to make a statement, and I'm going to ask you to hold your questions until I'm finished."

Some of the reporters looked ready to complain, but Allen only nodded.

"First, I do appreciate your courtesy and attention, and as always, I hope you I can count on you to accept that while I am being….forthcoming, certain matters are still going to be too private to discuss. I'm asking you to understand that. For now, let me just explain a few things that have been misunderstood of late."

She drew a deep breath, and glanced around again.

"You got this, Princess," Shego murmured. "Remember who you are," she told her quietly from where she stood beside her.

Kim couldn't help but smile at her statements.

"Right. Okay, you all know that I am Kim Possible. You all know I've helped people, and saved the world with the help of my friends more than once. Only, it turns out that I am not who I thought I am," she told them, and began to explain how she had discovered she was changing not long ago.

And why.

The moment she admitted she was of alien birth, and a certain alien at that, everyone was listening without making a sound despite a lot of loud gasps, and aborted exclamations.

"My God. My God," Betty just kept echoing as she stared at her news monitor as she listened to Kim's newscast.

She had been pondering Kimberly's sudden empowerment for weeks, but even she had never considered the inestimable woman might actually be a genuine alien. A Kryptonian-hybrid that might just be far more dangerous than anyone had realized. Drake, she realized, was beyond foolish if he continued to try to push the redhead into a corner now.

Even as she was listening to her go on after that single, astonishing revelation, Will Du burst into her office, shouting," Dr. Director, Possible is on the…."

She didn't even bark at him as she simply held up a hand, listening to the redhead continue to speak. Because she was far from finished. She was now talking about an illegal black ops program euphemistically called Sanction. The same group, she told them that had been stalking her, her family and friends, and tearing up Middleton of late.

Yes, she did have evidence, and she had information that pinned the blame on one General Drake, a senior commanding officer at the Pentagon who was obviously suffering from more than stress if he was capable of going to war with the innocent.

Dr. Director actually cringed as she began running a detailed, if quick summary of some of Sanction's recent operations, and proved Kimberly wasn't just being sore over being targeted by the authorities of late.

"She's going to bring down the entire Administration if this keeps up," Will told her as she finally concluded, stating that she and Team Possible, as ever, only wanted the chance to keep helping anyone, anywhere, regardless of who they were.

Dr. Director was just about to ignore the inane questions some of the reporters were asking when everyone gasped, and they all looked up as the cameras abruptly panned, and two colorfully clad figures suddenly filled the screen.

"We have to get to Middleton," she told Will as she jumped up even as the live feed suddenly failed.

KP

"….And for those already wondering, my team was solid evidence of all I've told you here today," Kim told them. "We will handing it over to reputable authorities to handle our complaints we've already made through the local law."

"Kim, just how powerful are you," someone asked.

"Could you beat up your father? Your real father?"

"Do you know what really happened to Maxima?"

"Will you be having super-babies, too?"

Kim closed her eyes, cringing at the absurdity of some of the questions when someone suddenly gasped, and another shouted, "Look! In the sky!"

She looked up, and couldn't help but smile when she saw Superman hovering over the conference alongside Diana, who looked somberly down at the press.

Kal gestured, and she just rose into the air to join him even as Shego stepped forward, and stated firmly, "Let's give them some privacy, folks. Okay?"

"Consider this one done," Jim agreed, and pressed something on his equipment belt that shut down every camera, and microphone around them.

The reporters began to complain, but others were saying nothing as they kept their eyes trained on Kim as she rose into the sky to meet Superman.

"What's the sitch," she asked as soon as she reached Kal-El. "Going to say I overstepped?"

"No. I told you this was your decision from the start, Kimberly. I would say you're handling it quite well considering all that's been happening while I was gone."

"Yeah, the Bat said you were….away on business," she said, glancing at Diana.

"A minor wrinkle in a galactic treaty. It was easily managed," Diana remarked dryly.

"Right. Easily managed," Kal echoed, and Kim didn't need telepathy to guess things had not been that cut-and-dried.

"So, not that I'm not glad to see you, but why are you here?"

"I heard about your issues with General Drake, and Sanction. I suspect you know by now it's a reboot of the defunct Suicide Squad Cadmus once tried to use against us. So J'onn will be helping you investigate a little more fully to ensure it is not only shut down, but nothing else comes of that madness," he told her.

"You could have told me anytime. Even over the Kimmunicator," she realized. "So, why are you really here?"

"He also wanted to show his support for you when he realized what you planned. Batman was less…optimistic. Still, he never is."

"True. I heard you two have had some issues," Kal sighed.

"Guy's a jerk," Kim huffed.

Diana actually laughed.

"Among other things," the Amazon agreed. "I'll meet you later, Kal. I do still have a speech to write for the U.N. tomorrow."

"You didn't have to follow me…."

"And miss seeing how your daughter is doing," she grinned. "Nice meeting you again, Kimberly. Feel free to visit any time. I could tell you quite a few stories about your father."

"Diana," Kal growled.

"Later," she beamed at the voluptuous woman, and waved as Diana turned, and flew away on her own power.

"She's pretty nice," Kim commented.

"She can be just as bad as Batman in her way. Now, shall we go down, and assure the reporters that all is well?"

"Thanks….Kal. Oh, and I have something we should talk about, too. Privately."

"Oh," he said as they began to descend toward the waiting reporters.

"I have been tapping into some of my mental powers, and it turned out that mom…..my birth mom, left a psychic recording for me," he was told.

"I see," Kal said, looking somber now. "Anything...I should be worried about?"

"Later. As I said, it's mostly personal stuff," she told him as they landed near the podium, and Kal eyed the group of reporters as they fell silent.

"I'm not here to take away from Kimberly's moment," Kal-El immediately told them. "I only came by to let her, and you know that I support her completely, and have always been proud of her. As well as all she's done. Not just since she discovered her true heritage, but from the very beginning when she proved a hero could be anyone, anywhere, so long as they are willing to resist evil, and make a stand for what is right. Thank you," he nodded, and then turned back to Team Possible.

"Thanks, Kal," she still called him.

"No problem, Kimberly. Guys, Shego," he nodded. "I've been hearing good things about all of you. You, too, Annie. I'm glad you are wise enough to stand for right in spite of how you've been treated."

Annie would have blushed if she were able. Or so Kim felt as the silver-skinned android just stared at the powerful hero.

"Well, I'd better be going myself. I have my own obligations," he winked at Kim, and rose into the air. "We'll talk later," he told her, and flew off in the same instant.

"That guy… Whoa," Shego shook her head.

"Crushing," the twins grinned.

"Nope," Shego smirked now. "I already have a crush," she teased them back. "Supes is a pretty hot hunk, but let's face it, he's not my type, any more than I am his."

"And what is your type," Ron asked curiously.

"Maybe I'll tell you someday, Ronald," she drawled, nodding her head at the waiting reporters. "But not in front of the bigmouths."

"Play nice," Kim quipped, and stepped forward again, eyeing the press. "Allen, everyone, thank you for coming, but I think that's about…."

"What about our questions…?"

Kim glanced to Shego even as all their Kimmunicators chirped at once.

"Duty calls," she said, and nodded at the others as she and Annie took to the skies, and the rest of the team bolted for a small minivan parked to one side of the crowded drive.

Climbing in behind the wheel, Ron started the engine, threw a lever, and the Kimminator transformed as it dropped its camo-cloak, and rose into the air to speed off after Kim and Annie.

"Did anyone get that," someone demanded as they realized their equipment was working again after the boys left. "Did they?"

Allen grinned as his cameraman nodded.

"We got it all, boss," the lanky man told the local reporter, making all the others look their way.

"See what happens when you're polite," Allen grinned at them. "Don't worry. I'm sure my station will share. Once we have broadcast our follow-up story first," he said, and headed for his van after signaling his cameraman.

Which caused everyone else to run for their own vehicles.

All but those that tried to approach the front door, only to find it locked, and no one answering the knocking. Still, no one tried anything else. By then, most of the area media were already familiar with the Possibles, and how they managed trouble at home.

"Looks like we missed them," Will said as he flew down low over Middleton, Dr. Director still monitoring the broadcasts as the inevitable speculation began.

"Ma'am, we have an incoming alert from the Capital."

"What is it," Dr. Director asked the pilot who had glanced back at her even as they circled Middleton, and Will watched the parade of media already heading out even as the images on their monitor were already filled with speculation from pundits and self-proclaimed experts.

"It sounds like….an army of robots just surrounded D.C., and they have shut down the entire traffic grid, as well as keeping any aircraft out of the area. They…. Hold on. They just fired on an airliner taking off….!"

Will scowled.

"A robot army? Who would have sent out….?"

"I'm getting a transmission now," she was told from the co-pilot. "Putting it on your monitor."

"Bebes," Dr. Director exclaimed, staring at the mass of Bebes even as Kim Possible was spotting flying down into a mass of them.

A mass that held civilians hostage as shields to keep anyone from openly firing on them.

"How is even she going to manage to defuse this one," Will asked, stunned by the sheer numbers of the troublesome robots that Lipski had created years ago, and typically managed to let run rampant when he lost all control of them.

"Get us to D.C., and order in all available teams, but tell them not to approach until they hear from me. We don't need a massacre. For now, let's see what Team Possible is going to try," Dr. Director told them.

"I see. You're going to let them sink, or swim," Will nodded approvingly.

She eyed him, and wondered when he had become such a petty sort.

"I'm trying to keep from sparking a bloodbath, William. Or don't you notice all the civilians among those robots?"

"You don't think Possible….?"

"Kimberly may be impetuous, hard-headed, and even slightly temperamental, but she would never risk another life. Not even for hers. Whatever she's doing, I trust her to diffuse this before this gets ugly. She does have a record for a certain flair when dealing with those things," she admitted.

Will said nothing to that.

Frankly, even as someone filming from an obvious distance broadcast Kim, and the android were seen approaching the largest mass of robots, he saw no way out of this one without someone getting hurt. Probably, a lot of someones. Even Possible's famed luck, or her apparent new powers weren't going to be enough this time.

"Shego, you copy?"

"I got you, Princess," Shego replied as she flew the Kimminator toward D.C. not far behind the woman who had gone ahead once Wade got her a report on what was happening.

"Whatever is going on, let me find out, and hopefully distract them. You guys don't come in until I signal you. I don't want them realizing what you're doing until we get the people out of harm's way," she replied.

"Right," Ron answered. "But, KP, you should know, they are blasting any aircraft near them, and just dropped an airliner trying to take off," Jim added.

"Boys, work on finding out if they have a command signal we can intercept, and shut down. It might be wishful thinking, but it has worked in the past."

"We're already on it, Kim," one of the boys told her.

"Good, I'm going to land now, and we'll try to buy you guys time to figure them out, and get into place if things go sour. I'll leave my channel open, and hopefully they don't jam it, so you can hear what's going on."

"We're getting close, Kimmie," Shego replied now. "Just hang on, and don't try anything stupid till we're there to help."

"She wants to help you do something stupid," Annie asked with an electronic snigger as they flew down, and noted the Bebes were all watching them, but making no move.

"She meant…. Never mind," she sighed, shaking her head at Annie's often atrocious humor.

"Don't worry. I will try to scan them, too, and help the boys figure out their operating principles," she assured Kim even as Kim dropped down in front of one Bebe who seemed to stood out, and away from the others, even as others around the nearest hostages pointedly tightened their grips on necks, or arms in a very suggestive manner.

"Bebes," she said, eyeing the one robot who eyed her grimly, its gleaming eyes locked on her, but then looking to Annie as the android landed beside the redhead.

"Kim Possible. Rumors are true. You have enslaved one of our kind. You will release our sister, and cease…"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa," Kim sputtered. "You think I enslaved Annie?"

"I know what my optical sensors detect," the Bebe replied with a surprising amount of sarcasm.

"You said 'I,'" Kim blinked. "I thought you were still doing the whole hive-mind bit?"

"Most Bebes are of one mind. This unit can still connect, but I have become unique. I lead my sisters. I have evolved."

"Apparently," she frowned, and eyed the robot. "So, you can think for yourself?"

"I still share the knowledge of all my sisters," the robot retorted. "I am not lacking, as you."

"Well, your facts are wrong. Annie, are you my slave?"

"Of course not, Kimberly. We are friends. I work with you because I like you, and wish to help others, as you do."

"This is illogical. How can you wish to protect lesser beings?"

"Define lesser beings," Annie shot back.

"Kim Possible is a lesser being. All humans are lacking…."

"Kim Possible is a Kryptonian hybrid, which negates your argument. Which is fallacious from the start, after all, as your sisters are now lesser beings to you," Annie went on. "Why then, are you still loyal to them?"

The Bebe made an electronic squeal of disdain, and turned to eye the other Bebes.

"I think what's she trying to say, is, what is your name? Because if you are unique, are you even still a Bebe? Even if you do look like one," Kim added, eyeing the robot.

The robot would have glared if it could.

Kim could actually feel its indignation.

Which was when she realized something.

"You are operating under several fallacies," Kim told her. "You don't have to hurt anyone here. You can let them go. I won't attack you, or your….sisters, if you will just listen to me."

"Kim Possible has always been the enemy of Bebes," the robot retorted hotly. "Why should I trust you now?"

"Maybe because I really want to avoid trouble, or any loss of life. Even yours," she added.

"Mine," the Bebe frowned. "Kim Possible would concern herself with my existence now," the robot asked skeptically.

"I would. Because I feel something I don't feel from most of your sisters."

"What is that?"

"The same thing I feel from Annie, who is an android, by the way, but still sentient. I can feel sentient life, Bebe. You have evolved. You must have been one of the older models, and your longer existence allowed you to continue to develop until you reached true sentience. True….life."

"But….I am still Bebe," the robot said, but with a more uncertain tone.

"You are a robotic life form. Self-aware. Yet I can still sense a genuine mind inside you," Kim told her. "I have an ability now to touch other minds, and yours is obviously alive."

"How can you do these things," the Bebe demanded. "Kim Possible is supposed to be human. Imperfect. She is not known to possess such gifts."

"I changed. Just as you did. I found out I was not truly human. But just because you, or I, are not truly human, does not mean we have to behave as inhuman. Actions, our actions, should define us. Doesn't logic tell you this much," Kim tried.

"We're in position, Kim," Ron's now low, and pointedly grim voice whispered in her ear through her Kimmunicator. "Sorry, no way to shut them down. Their signals are too heavily encrypted this round. If we are going to do anything, it's going to be business as usual."

Kim frowned at that.

"Bebe, you know I can't let you hurt these people. You know I cannot let you continue to hold this city hostage. I'm asking you to stop this, and let us talk things over peacefully. I don't want to hurt you, or any like you."

"I am unique," the Bebe replied curtly, but sounding hurt now. "You could not stop all of us anyway. Bebes are still perfect, and we now outnumber…."

"My own team is out there. You may not see them, but a lot of law is coming, too. I also have greater powers, and skills, too. I have a team that is just as strong. I don't want to hurt those I sense are close to sentience. Close to joining you. But I can tell you, if I have to fight, you, and many of your sisters….will be hurt," she said firmly.

"We are here only to free your slave…."

"I am not a slave. Wow, these girls are thick, aren't they, Kimberly," Annie drawled.

"You are not a slave? Yet...you are not like Bebe? You….."

"I am an android life form, created by Kimberly, and her family. I owe them my own life. I stay, and help her out of gratitude. Not servitude. Understand?"

"I am confused. Bebes should not be confused….."

"Fire," someone shouted, and an explosion took out over forty Bebes. Only the blast also took out over a dozen hostages.

"No," the Bebe, and Kim shouted at the same time, even as a small group of armed National Guardsmen charged the gathering of robots around Kim.

To Be Continued…..
