Wow, chapter 20. Yes, lost some viewers because of the 'dark' tone of this tale. If ya'll remember, all the way back in book one I said that it would be dark and it is here now. For THIS chapter you won't need to take your 'meds' before reading it.
Again, I want to thank everyone who has stayed with the series so far and I appreciate everyone who has read, faved, followed, alerted and or reviewed. After 19 was posted the FF site kinda had a fit and it took about a week for things to iron themselves out. Now speaking of reviews this is where I answer or comment on them so here goes: Uberscribbler, writing chapter 73 at the moment and Stevie seems to have bitten off more than he can chew and Middleton's finest have him in their custody. I expect that our favorite school administrator is gonna flip faster that an Olympic class gymnast soon enough; Jimmy1201, Mister Browne had to show his work, why shouldn't everyone else…also, Stevie is constantly messing with our favorite Mad Dog. Kimmie does get distracted (mostly by Eric). Watch for Monique to have an epiphany.
GJ agent, sure Kimmie cares, but she has her own distraction now in the form of 'Eric'. Why does Kimmie get upset when Ron slams 'Eric' simple, 'Eric' charms her and this clouds her judgement. At the moment Ron just doesn't give a rat's a$$ about Monique pure and simple; guest, Betts was just checking on someone who she wants to be one of her assets that's all.
Again, thanks all. If the site doesn't go whack again maybe things will calm down a little.
Let's get this show on the road,

The Hunter: Book Two
Chapter 20
"Ten minutes to touch down Agent Zorro.", a crewmember called out to the blond teen who was reading the contents from a folder he was holding.
Ron Stoppable muttered to himself, "I oughta kick Wade in the 'nads for that name he came with last summer." Then he called back, "Right."
Ron then reviewed further in the folder he was studying for whom he was going to have a 'talk' with, 'Francis Capon, Assistant Director of Interpol, I am Frank Zorro glad to meet you…I hope you have insurance coverage.' Then he viewed the isolated dwelling on the picture, 'Betts said he has security and a couple of Agents to keep people like me away…I hope they are better than Jones' thugs. I guess this is gonna be a test to see just how good my infiltration skills are…Kim would be happy with me if she knew. I wonder if Kim is playing footsie with that limey jerk yet?'
Two minutes later:
The cabin lights dimmed, Ron looked outside and saw no lights. The blond teen pulled down a balaclava that matched the rest of his camouflaged outfit Global Justice issued him. After donning his thin gloves, he patted himself down for the tenth time to make sure he had all of his accessories in place, including black super-wide zip ties. The former footballer turned asshole had already punched the extraction point's coordinates into his wrist GPS unit slash comm unit he was assigned for this quick in-and-out confrontation. Since the persons he would be interacting with were primarily French speakers there was an earbud and microphone in his head covering that would allow him to communicate with them while disguising his voice. 'As long as they don't get a look at my face this will work out.', he thought to himself.
Outside Grand Champ, France:
The whisper quiet craft suddenly decelerated and touched down. Immediately a form sprang out the hatch and shoulder rolled away from his ride. As soon as his shadowed form touched the ground, the craft was in the air and stayed low as it traveled to its loiter coordinates some forty miles away.
Staying low, he moved towards the hedge protected two-story building which had some lights on outside. As he got to the small building right before it, Ron sniffed, 'Crud, an outhouse. I thought everybody in the civilized world had indoor plumbing now.'
Seeing no better time, the American ninja, donned his special glasses and hurried over to the hedge that surrounded the main structure. Then he found an opening and slipped through.
Ron, knowing that he looked like a shadow, crept closer to the building…more of a large house, and circled it a couple of times to check to see if there were any tripwires. Not seeing any, he moved to a side door and turned the handle. Seeing it was locked, he took a bottle out of one of the pouches on his waist belt, opened it, then sprayed it at the latch slash door handle and waited until there was a faint hissing. He waited another two minutes and then turned the handle again. This time the door opened.
Ron then looked around and located the electrical hookup and, in a moment, there was a flash of blue. He took two swipes with the sword and there was a flash as all the lights that were on in the house went out. Ron then found the telephone hookup to the building and in a moment, it was no longer functional as well. 'I sure hope they haven't called for help by radio already.', the blond teen thought to himself.
The high school teen then went back to the door as he pulled three 'marbles' out of another pouch.

Middleton:
"No Eric, I have don't have any idea where Ron got off to. There is no one at his house.", an exasperated Kim Possible enlightened her boyfriend.
"Why don't you call him then?", Eric suggested.
The red head did as her boyfriend suggested and after a couple of minutes, she called Wade on her wrist unit. In moments a hologram of Wade's face appeared before her, "Hey, evening Kim, what's up?"
"Trying to find Ron, did he talk to you today?", Kim inquired.
"Early this morning, he said something about being out of town this weekend."
"Where's Hanna? I wanted her to spend some time with Eric so she can get used to him."
"I think Hanna went with Ron.", the tech guru lied.
"Well, where did Ron go, Wade?"
"I think he headed to Kansas, so he's been gone for like four hours."
"And Ron's unit isn't on?"
Wade typed for a few moments, "Nope, his unit is off. He should be at his destination by one in the morning considering the weather."
Eric scolded as he continued to build his 'cred' about actually caring for children, "Stoppable is taking that child into inclement weather? That is criminal and he is endangering the child, he should be jailed and the child should be taken away from him…"
Wade pointed out, "Ron's driving an all-wheel drive car, he has winter tires on it. I think he has a pretty good handle on this Eric."
"But it's irresponsible…"
Kim stepped in, "Well there is nothing we can do about this Eric, but I'll talk to Ron when he gets back."
"It will not be enough; someone has to stand up for the child…"
Wade asked, "And that someone is you? I want to remind you that you are a guest in this country."
Sigh
XXX
Grand Champ, France:
(Check the lights again Jeane.), a voice told an obvious other person.
Our hero could see the two forms and casually tossed one of the marbles at them. It landed and began to hiss. Two minutes later the blond teen walked up to the two forms who were on the ground unconscious. Ron knelt down, removed four of the very heavy-duty straps from his belt and secured the hands and feet of both men.
Ron then began to climb the stairs, keeping to one wall as he scanned ahead with his Coolio glasses. He found two more guards at the top of the stairs, but they didn't hear our goofy hero because he was a ninja. As Ron got close, he tossed one more 'marble' at the two. It landed between them and began to hiss like the last one downstairs.
He waited until he heard two thumps from the bodies hitting the floor, then waited for the gas to dissipate. While he waited, Ron wondered how he was going to handle the police official he wanted to send a warning to.
The ninja hurriedly finished securing both guards as he thought, 'Betts was off by one guard, there might be more.'
(Hello, hello…what is going on with the phone and the electric?), a frantic male voice said.
Ron stepped into the room, "Howdy Inspector Capon…I'm Frank Zorro. Glad to meet you." With that the blond teen vigilante hit the Interpol higher up with a series of punches that left the older man gasping for breath.
"W…who are you?"
"A friend of Kim Possible's. Remember her?", Ron replied.
"I do not know that name…"
"Cut the crap Francis, you went around Global Justice and sent her on a mission to Jones' island where they captured her and were going to kill her…Me and my pals sorta intervened with that distasteful problem.", Ron informed the Interpol official.
"Y…you are the ones who killed…"
"Nah, wasn't us. Somebody else had a problem with the midget and I guess took him and his buds with him and flushed them down the shitter. I'm sure it was a sad story. Anyway, what's Jones to you?" With that Ron again unloaded on the man making sure he hit pressure points.
"He…"
Ron frowned, "He what?"
"He extorted me…are you sure that he is really dead?"
"Yeah, according to reports. Why the hell would he lean on a police official.", Ron now felt he was getting to the bottom of something slimy.
"He found out I was pocketing evidence…jewels…and he wanted Miss Possible for some reason and offered to let me out of our deal if I delivered her."
"YOU Judas.", Ron accused as he kicked the policeman in the face knocking him on his backside.
Capon begged, "Please no more."
"You're not very convincing Francis.", Ron hit him in the solar plexus.
Wheezing, "I swear I will do anything you want…"
"Okay I get it, why don't you just make, like, turn some of that stuff in anonymously. People would be happy, but their insurance companies would be a lot happier.", the teen suggested.
"You won't turn me in?"
"I don't care about that stuff.", Ron punched him in the gut, "but turn some of it in and I'll be out of your hair…But…"
"Yes?", the quivering middle-aged man asked.
"Oh, if you ever AND I mean EVER send Kim Possible out and she gets hurt or killed…I will be back and I won't be playing next time.", Ron warned, "And remember the name: Frank Zorro…And Frank will hunt you down like a rabid animal." The teen backed away and tossed another marble. Again, there was a hissing noise and moments later there was another 'thump'.
Ron backed up to the stairs and touched a button on his mask, "Pickup in ten minutes."
The blond teen hurried to the door and let himself out as a car came up the driveway. Ron cursed himself quietly as he moved to the hedge and slipped through it. Once on the other side of the hedge he took a reading off of his wrist GPS unit and began to jog away while staying low.

Six minutes later:
"You're fucking late Zorro.", the crewman growled since they had been on the ground for more than thirty seconds.
"The place is swarming with cops, let's go…"
"Did you accomplish your mission?"
"Yeah, but this one is for Betty's ears alone. If she wants to tell Du it's up to her, but this is fucked up beyond belief.", Ron told him as the crewmember secured the hatch. Before Ron was even fastened in the hover jet was lifting off. Before the craft turned its lights on it was at thirty thousand feet and sixty miles away.
The teen looked up surprised as a box was passed to him. Ron looked inside and with a smile, "Thanks."
X
Four hours later:
"Zorro, we are thirty minutes out. Doctor Director is waiting for you in her office.", the crewman informed the teen after he woke said teen up.
The blond yawned, "Thanks, oh and thanks for having some snackage this time."
The crewman chuckled, "After your meltdown last summer we kinda changed."
"You know I was right about having something to eat after a mission, even MREs would be better than nothing. I never expected a box of nachos and loaded ones at that…"
"New thing freeze dried. Sorry they're cold though. A shot of water and nuke for ninety seconds until the cheese is melted again.", the crewman grinned.
"Well it wasn't Bueno Nacho, but what is? Again thanks."

Global Justice:
Ron was holding his sister in his lap while gazing at Betty Director. Her one eye narrowed as she asked, "And that was the reason that Capon sent Kim Possible and assistant to Jones' island? Are you sure?"
"According to him Ma'am; yes. Now can we use this information against him? If not, then he would know who was behind infiltration of his weekend getaway and I'm not sure that we want him or Interpol trying to get back at us.", Ron gave his insight.
"True, but that does give us a reason to investigate corruption in other police agencies.", Betty responded as she smiled at the interaction between siblings one of whom was a caregiver for the other.
"Ma'am, that is none of my concern. At the moment I am trying to be an adult and take care of my sister…"
"And be an asset for your school in Japan, correct?"
"Since Hiro and Yori briefed you on that, yes. At least I can confirm that as being true.", Ron told her.
"Why did you agree to become Yamanouchi's asset then?", Betty asked.
"Sensei believes that Kim has some destiny to help make the world a better place and with me being me and how close I am to Kim it was decided that I up my training to make sure she gets to where Sensei thinks she can be whatever she's supposed to be without her getting hurt or killed.", Ron told her basically the reason they told him.
"And you are nothing more to them but being a bodyguard for Miss Possible?"
At this Ron lied, "Yeah, that's about it. I'm a disposable asset."
"So, you take the training to protect your best friend?"
"That's about it, since I am in the same school as she is it makes the job a lot easier. They were able to put Hirotaka in the school for a week to assess Kim while I went through the initial training in Japan."
"So, you would willingly give up your life for Miss Possible?"
"In a nutshell, yeah. For most of my life she has stood by me when others wouldn't. I owe her a lot for being my friend for all those years even though I have more friends now.", Ron explained.
"How does your current situation with Miss Possible stand Ronald?"
"The suit helps on missions, but it's hotter than blazes if I have to wear it in normal temperatures for more than an hour.", the teen told her as he set his sister down on the floor.
Betty frowned, "And the allergies were the reason that you were moved out of classes that you and Miss Possible share?"
"According to Mister Barkin, yes. What I don't get is if they were going to do that why not just have me switch classes with some other person in another hour instead of putting me in classes that I shouldn't be in?"
"Agreed, do you want us to look into it?"
"Ma'am if you do that people might ask questions. Now I think Barkin is a rat who likes to fuck with me, but that's about as far as it goes. He's been trying to get under my skin for years and I think that this is just a continuation of his thought process although I don't want to get very far into that."
"But if Mister Barkin is messing around with one of our agents' security…"
"Kim's?", Ron inquired.
"And yours as well.", she told him.
"Ma'am, I can take care of myself. I worry about Kim, my family and my friends however."
"And your college future?", Betty pointedly asked.
Ron leaned back in his chair and chuckled, "There won't be much of that."
"Oh, why?"
"Flunking math and maybe the same with science, I'm hitting a wall with it to tell you the truth."
"I understand that some of the courses that you have been enrolled in for the spring semester are not the classes you should be in."
"Ma'am you have stated an obvious fact and one of my problems going forward in school."
"We can help you out…."
"How can you help me out, I need trig and I don't have enough hours in the day to make room for it with all the other stuff I have on my plate right now."
"We at GJ have been working on a device which may help you learn more easily.", she hinted.
Ron frowned then got up and picked up his sister who was tottering around the table. "Learn more easily?", he asked, then continued, "I've been down this road before and it wasn't very pleasant. Not sure if I wanna try this one again."
"While the machine we have constructed is experimental we do not think that something bad will be the outcome, so far, we have tested it on lab rats and there is no hostility or seeming personality change, however they seem to do better in mazes which we have some that change while tests are going on. We will not force you to try this out Ronald, but it might be a way of catching up to your fellow students."
"If I decide to do this what happens?"
"I don't understand the details of it, but the longhairs seem to think that while it doesn't really increase intelligence it does make it easier to learn somehow.", Betty explained.
"And you said no side effects?", Ron asked to clarify, "I don't want to have a personality change and scare off my sister."
"Not that we can tell so far…"
"Is this procedure ethical?", the blond teen inquired then explained, "I…I know me and the ethical stuff don't really go hand in hand, but the first question out of my Rabbi's mouth would be one about being fair to everyone…he'd give me a hard time over taking the easy way."
"Don't suppose this is a magic pill Ronald to allow you not to study, while it will make it easier to learn it will not immediately change your grades you still have to go over the material. It allows you to remember more efficiently if what the scientists told me is true."
"So, it makes it easier to remember then?"
"That is what I have been told."
"Ma'am, I'd have to give this some thought."
"I understand, but be forewarned, you have to give yourself time to be exposed to the material for the learning process to begin."
"I'll let you know in twenty-four hours then, I haveta get my sister home Ma'am…"
"I understand, go home and get some rest, I'll have an agent meet you outside my door to take you to your car."
Ron zipped his Sister into her snowsuit and checked her diaper bag and muttered, "Looks like she used up most of her things Ma'am. It's a good thing the mission didn't go longer."
"We had more supplies Ronald. We did use mostly her bottles, but if you noticed we supplied our own baby food."
"I make her food and that's what she's used to. You didn't give her anything experimental, did you?", Ron inquired.
The head of the UN's law enforcement branch smiled and planted a seed in the teen's head, "We have a full-service daycare here as well, some of our agents are single parents. Think of it as a perk of being a member of GJ."
"Sounds like you're trying to recruit me Ma'am…"
"Are you interested Ronald?"
"Uh, not at the moment. I understand that I need to further my education before I can even think about something like that.", he replied.
"We have a special course of study which would allow you to continue your education while training to become a full-time agent."
"Ma'am that just sounds tough…"
"I admit it's not for everyone, but we can speak more of this later, you need to get that child home and get some rest. But seriously think about this, Kimberly is going off to college and this might be what you need to do."
"Yeah, you know Hanna isn't used to being up this early and I think I'm going to pay the price for this.", Ron chuckled to himself.
"Enjoy the weekend Ronald, you should get a good eight hours in tonight so you can get caught up."
"I still have homework to do over the weekend Ma'am.", Ron responded.
"I understand, but I also understand that you need to have time as a teenager. There is an immense amount of pressure on you at the moment Ronald. I hope in time that things will begin to calm down for you."
"Same here Ma'am, but I just have to react and hope I don't have any more trouble. I'd like to get a break soon before I turn into a puddle of goo.", Ron turned with his sister to walk out of the office.
After he left Will Du entered and asked, "How did his mission go?"
"Sit down Will, the rumors appear to be true, we have to start an investigation.", the commander of GJ informed him.

Ron buckled the bundled-up child into her seat while the agent assigned to bring him to his auto stood by ready to open the doors. Ron then got in and buckled up himself then waved.
The doors opened and Ron turned the ignition of his mom's car on and waited a moment then pulled out into the light snow that was falling.
The teen snorted to himself, "Good to be back in Middleton, but I why didn't Mom and Dad move south of the Mason-Dixon line."

The chunky genius yawned as he nodded off again. Wade had been keeping track of Ron Stoppable's location, conversations, heart rate, temperature and other factors since the blond goofball got on the Global Justice transport late in the afternoon on the previous day. "Good,", Wade mumbled to himself as he made the connection to the blond teen's unit now that there was no one around to listen in.
Beep Beep Beep
Ron Stoppable pulled his Kimmunicator out of his pocket and punched the 'connect' button.
"Yeah Wade, top 'O' the morning to ya.", Ron grumbled.
"Assaulting a police officer in France? You should be ashamed of yourself Ron."
"Look, I didn't kill him Wade although in my opinion he deserved it, I just gave him a message not to send Kim on a one-way mission again. Considering how pissed I was at the time he's lucky I didn't hijack Yamanouchi's hover and murder the bastard then minute I found out. Anyway, since you heard GJ's going to start an investigation and see where it goes."
"You just had to use the name Frank Zorro didn't you Ron?", Wade accused.
"It was better than saying sidekick extraordinaire and Kim Possible's childhood friend Ronald Dean Stoppable of Middleton, Colorado, don't you think? Anyway, it was you who came up with the 'Frank' moniker to screw with me…now I own it. It's a lot better than Zorpox the Conqueror, get over it.", Ron frowned as he drove from the countryside into the Middleton suburbs trying not to slide into a ditch since the roads hadn't been plowed yet.
"Well Kim thinks Zorro is a nice guy, now if she finds out she'll think he's just some sort of mercenary thug."
Ron chuckled, "Well he is 'cept he doesn't get paid. Anyway, some people think Kim's a vigilante when she goes after Drakken and Shego…"
"Speaking of them, we have heard anything since that railroad mission…"
"Ssssshhh Wade, you're hexing it, maybe they retired or had an accident."
"Not likely Ron, they're probably hatching a plot although we usually see something from them about every sixteen days.", Wade informed his friend.
"True…"
"Oh, I had to lie to Kim, she checked on you Friday after you left and I told her you drove to Kansas to visit relatives…"
"Wade, I think Kim knows I don't have any relatives in Kansas."
The African-American genius then said, "You'd better lie about it when it comes up and you know it will."
"I'll just tell Kim that the chip musta been malfunctioning again and that you're sending a bot to check on it.", Ron responded and advised, "You know you might wanna have one come over to make it look good."
"Ron you're putting all this on me…"
"Do YOU trust Kimmie's boyfriend as far as you can throw him Wade? I sure don't.", Ron asked to make his point. He and the genius had already spoken about the English teen and Wade had decided at that point to remove all the valuable applications off the Kimmunicator that Kim had given the suave teen during the rescue mission.
"Ron we've been over this…"
"Answer my question Wade.", Ron continued.
"Ahh, no."
"And that is why I don't want him around my Sister. I don't care what Kim says; I. Do. Not. Trust. Him."
"Well Kim wants Eric to spend time with your sister Ron…"
"Kim knows my feelings on this, I don't know why she has to know how best to run my life. As for right now I am in charge of raising my Sister not Kim Possible, not Daddy Possible either. As for Mrs. Doctor P, I'm more open. I respect her judgement. Dang, look how time flies. I'll be home in about five minutes Wade. Then I can give Hanna her bath, another bottle and see if she's willing to sleep for a few hours. I'll talk later Wade."
"Sure Ron, I'll give a call before I send a Wade bot over and I'll make sure that Kim's family is up and around so they will ask about it and then we'll have a good cover story for last night."
"Damn Wade, you're getting as devious as I am."
"I try, oh before I forget some of your friends were at your house last night so don't be surprised if you get questions about where you were so even though you weren't there and you're using your Kimmunicator check your home phone and cell phone for messages,", Wade reminded Ron then advised, "and start taking your cell with you. Talk to you later, and for God's sake get some sleep you sound like shit."
"I look like shit too. I'll get a hold of you later.", Ron replied as the connection went dead.

"Shego?", the voice whined behind her.
"Yeah doc,", the mint-hued villainess taunted, then stared at her boss, "Lord Drewbie, now what?"
"I can't get my hand out of the cookie jar."
"Did you just have a brain fart?", she sighed, "Just open your hand and release the cookie…"
"Peanut butter sticky.", the blue, supposedly mad, scientist pointed out.
Shego rolled her eyes, "Whatever. What did that machine do to you last night?"
With his free hand, the villain pulled a paper out of his pocket and hand it to her while he continued to try to pull his other hand out of the cookie jar.
She frowned as she snatched the paper away then grabbed his other arm and smashed the cookie jar on the table shattering it. The former heroine then read the paper which said, "Shego if you are reading this my brain enhancement machine, which I had you swipe the plans for from Global Justice, was wired in reverse. Please change wire 134 with wire 431 and put me back inside and turn it on…Drakken."
"Idiot, were you in a hurry again?"
All that she got was a blank look and grumbled, "Come on blue boy, I haveta fix one of your screwups again.", she grabbed him by his arm and pulled him behind her.
Once she got him situated in the telephone booth (okay I know a lot of you don't know what that is, but think of an apartment in Manhattan and you're pretty close….AN) sized machine she opened the access panel and looked for the two wires to change.
Twenty minutes later:
"Shego! Let me out…"
"Almost done blue boy, just tightening up the connections.", the villainess told him.
Finally, the former member of Team Go announced, "Okay we're ready now. Hang on and you should be back to your annoying self."
"EEEhhhhhaaaaaA.", Drakken screamed after Shego started it up.
She shook her head as a smoking Drew Lipsky opened the door three minutes later. The raven-haired nemesis of Kim Possible smirked, "You used cheap parts again, didn't you?"
"Nnnnnnggghhh, help me dismantle this thing."
An hour later:
Drakken inquired, "What were you doing earlier?"
"Guess who's old man croaked?", Shego asked.
The blue villain thought for a moment, then replied, "I have no idea. You know I don't keep up."
Shego frowned, "Stoppable's."
"Who?"
"Kimmie's sidekick.", was the clarification.
"Oh him, the football player. What does that have to do with us?"
"Kimmie might have an opening in her defense at the moment.", Shego pointed out.
"I don't have a plan to take over the world right now Shego…"
"No, but someone is gonna try something, Dementor just got busted by Kimmie again so one of those other clowns might try something. And at the moment we have decided that we don't want anyone to take advantage of her."
"What do you want to do Shego?"
"I wanna provide some backup for the Princess since her sidekick is down. I wouldn't put it past the idiots that Sheldon hired to take Kimmie down that this might have something to do with them…It's just too convenient for something like this to happen out of the blue."
"Are you suggesting we turn into good guys? That is preposterous."
"Just till Stoppable gets back on his feet and protect Possible. His Mother is in the hospital so he has to be running around like a chicken with his head cut off.", Shego surmised.
"Nnnnnngggggh, oh alright, but just till…uh what was his name again?"
"Stoppable."
"You sure?", Shego nodded at the blue hued scientist's question.
"What a stupid name."
The villainess snarked back, "It's the one he was using well they busted our butts last spring blue boy. Anyway, Doctor Drakken isn't exactly the alpha male of names if you ask me."
The blue villain's eyes narrowed, "Oh, alright, until Stoppable gets back on his feet, but I want us in the background."
"We will be. Accidents can happen to bad guys too and remember nobody gets to kick Kimmie's ass but me, what Jones tried to pull off would've put him at the top of my list. Not even that alien chick can cut in line when I decide to take princess down; which reminds me that I should kick your ass for that. I hurt for a week.", Shego snarled at the end.
Drakken ignored his sidekick's rant as he had heard it before, "I thought you didn't care about the buffoon though…"
"I don't, but I don't want the Princess to be preyed upon nor innocents either unless I am robbing them. Kimmie's old boy toy is like a faithful dog, I think he'll give up everything to protect her fat behind and that puts a huge bullseye on his back…I don't want her or his Mother or Sister to get dinged up by what might happen if those clowns follow through with their plans."
"Shego, we've gone over this before, but they want to kill the idiot to break down your girlfriend…"
The villainess's hand ignited, "SHE is NOT my girlfriend, I just want to make sure no one abuses her like they did me when I was her age. Say it again and I am going to flambé your butt Drewbie."
"Ahem, we'll leave that for now Shego. BUT I want you to put sensors outside her school, home, and place of employment and set up monitors. We have that stuff in the supply portion of the lair do we not?"
"We do, but I am going to have to get more from some of the other lairs. I'll get started on it tonight.", the villainess offered.
Sigh, "Very well and I will begin to write the programs for the monitoring and test the disappearo..."
"What the hell is a 'disappearo', blue boy?", Shego finger-quoted.
"Remember that gadget that helped you to disappear?"
"Yeah.", she came back.
"Well I think I have the glitches out of it now and you'll be able to get closer to Kimberly Possible's house to put those sensors up."
She asked, "And Stoppable's house?"
"Shego, I'm still not sure that Sheldon's thugs are going to target him…"
"I'm sure, your buffoon, as you call him, is the girl's biggest weakness even if she doesn't admit it and I want to close that hole."
"Are you sure you don't have a thing for Kimberly?"
"Pllllease, I like guys…hunky guys. The only way I would show any kind of romantic intentions for the cheerleader is to put one over on her, but you know without the long hair Kimmie might able to pass for a boy. She's flat chested enough.", Shego began to chortle.

The Stoppable home:
Ron set his sister in her crib and asked her nicely, "Do you think you can sleep for a few more hours Hanna?"
The tot yawned and closed her eyes.
Ron pulled the blanket up on the raven-haired baby, "Sweet dreams, sorry about last night."
Kim Possible's sidekick then quietly walked down the stairs and continued till he got to his 'teen cave' and removed his clothes from the mission and dragged himself into the shower. Ten minutes later he pulling on gym shorts and a tee shirt and going back up to the kitchen to make up some bottles for the day and cleaning the ones from the diaper bag.
He then got some cereal out for his sister and left it on the counter knowing eventually Hanna would wake up and he'd be at it again.
After turning the dishwasher on, he went to the closet to get out his pillow and blanket and stumbled his way to the couch.

Well, Ronnie boy can be a bad ass as we have seen, and it looks like he does have a little restraint to do with it. Again, I am writing chapter 73 now and am through most of the tale although there are some scenes left to go. Just so you know there will be MY version of 'Graduation' although it won't be quite as nice as the show's version.
Kim Possible, Ron Stoppable, Felix, Tara, Josh, Monique and all the other 'canon' characters of the show 'Kim Possible' belong to Bob, Mark and the Disney Corporation and not me nor CajunBear73. We just have this lil hobby and we don't make squat for money doing it…..crud.
Well see ya down the road,
