Surprise, surprise another chapter already. My editors are beating up on me. Yes, there will be Yono and graduation chapters. They are, of course, MY rendition of those events. I AM in the middle of writing chapter 94 at the moment, and it looks like I am on schedule to finish at chapter 97, but I am verbose.

ALSO: no character deaths, but some angst.

I still want to thank everyone who has read, faved, alerted, followed and or reviewed this thing. And here is where I answer some of those reviews: ajw1970, when Sensei finds out. Ronnie boy is gonna keep plugging along. Remember, Yamanouchi basically has deployed all it's shinobis and the ninja school is already on a 'war' footing and they are hoping to protect Japan. The reason Hanna is in the USA is because Sensei and his advisors felt it would be safer for her; Guest, Eric will try and convince Health and Family Services and their primary concern is to protect the kid; CB73, Kimmie is gaga over hotties…always has been. Sure Kim is being played and there were drugs involved BUT a lot of this is on her. Ron's hoping he won't have to juggle many more balls.

Jimmy, Kim is under the influence of TWO drugs. The one with the exploding package that caused her amnesia and the other which made her allergic to Ron also as said before, Kimmie goes gaga over hotties. Prove me wrong; Bobtrumpet, Eric is playing the part of a snobbish boyfriend as he claims to be 'nobility'. As to Eric/Hans' ending uh CB has dibs on writing that, but I have specified as to where it happens.

There, we're all better now, so let's get this puppy on the road.

Oh, CajunBear73 edited this one.

The Hunter: Book Two

Chapter 31

Middleton high school:

"GF, what did the police want with you earlier?", Monique asked her red-haired cheerleader friend as they walked to the cafeteria.

Sigh, "It was some follow-up questioning. See Ron went to that funeral for Woodson on Saturday in Lowerton and I offered to babysit his sister for him.", Kim began, "Anyway, I was doing homework and so Eric offered to watch Hanna for a while and I accepted because I had to get that report done for history class."

"So, that's nothing to get in trouble with the police about…"

"Well, Eric dropped Ron's sister and she was crying, and Dad came in and thought that the baby had gotten hurt so we called the ambulance. Then Daddy asked Eric to leave the house."

Monique shook her head, "Accidents happen…"

"Hanna looked like she had a broken arm and there was something wrong with her ribs too. So, I called Ron at the funeral, and he met us in the hospital…"

"As he should GF, I don't see where this is going.", Monique motioned for Kim to get to the conclusion of the tale.

"It looks like the police are investigating child abuse."

"Eric might be in trouble Kim…"

(AN….no shit Kim.)

"Eric is saying that Ron could be beating her…I mean Ron's been under a lot of stress, but I don't think he would go that far…"

"That rat…", the fashionista growled.

Kim looked confused, "Who's a rat?"

Grrrrr, "Ron for maybe hurting the kid and Eric for saying Ron did something without proof."

"I'm not sure that Ron was at fault, Ron's sister was acting normally when I was watching her anyway Eric is scared outta his wits right now…Accidents happen you know and they could charge him, but…", Kim explained.

"But what GF, either Eric is a rat or Ron is a rat…"

"When they took Hanna in for x-rays, they didn't find any broken bones or any other damage or signs of abuse. But they did keep her in the hospital or are until this afternoon. And I think Barkin is mad at Ron over this for not giving prior notice and is threatening to suspend Ron for being out of school without a good excuse.", Kim raised her hands to her eyes, "This is so much the drama."

"Kim, I'm not Stoppable's best friend, but Barkin can't kick him out of school because he wasn't here because of a family emergency."

Dave Alberts passed them and having heard a snippet of the conversation and added, "If Barkin tosses Ron, expect the senior class to revolt and don't expect most of the returning football players to play in the fall. We're about done with this BS…well I was anyway, but even the sophomores are sick of it. Barkin and Roberts are gonna have to suit up themselves…"

Monique exclaimed, "They can't…."

"You're right they can't and they are screwed, they just don't know it yet. It looks like Barkin is going to field a team mostly of freshmen and cheerleaders if he can get them, and my backup said he's joining the chess club. Curt's brother already told Roberts that he is planning on moving back home with his parents and they are out of town living in Clarence where they run a store. Stan was living in town with his brother.", the quarterback informed the two girls before they could even ask.

Kim stopped a brewing rant, "Why doesn't anyone want to go out, Dave?"

The former QB sighed aloud, "They are fed up with being treated like crap…even though we had a great year and won a championship, and I don't blame them. The new head of the boosters is already starting to threaten guys and, as a result, they just want to walk away."

Monique's eyes grew wide, "No way…"

"Way. It hasn't made its way to the papers or gone out on the radio and news stations yet, but it will when some of the guys start talking to people and those people talk.", Dave grinned, "Listen I have to grab Ron's assignments, he may not be in till tomorrow. I heard he has to talk with the cops again."

Kim's eyes narrowed, "Why would Ron have to be interviewed again?"

"Kim, I have no idea about what's going on. You have a better clue than I do. You and your BF started this bull hockey, see ya.", Dave walked on in a hurry.

The heroine mumbled loud enough so Monique could hear her, "Wade knows, but he won't tell me because I've talked to the police too…"

Monique asked, "Is this all because Eric dropped Stoppable's sister the other day?"

Kim looked down to her feet, "Yeah, this is some drama. I mean with Eric being nobility, if the police charge him it could lead to an international incident, and I don't think either Middleton or England want that."

Monique Jenkins thought for a moment then asked, "And Stoppable wanted Eric to stay away from his sister?"

"Yeah…"

"I'm not saying your BF would do this, but people might think that Eric did it on purpose to get to Ron through his sister. Even you know they don't like each other."

"Moni, Eric would never do something like that….t…that would make him out to be evil, as evil as Drakken or Shego.", Kim exclaimed, "I think I'm a better judge of character than you give me credit for!"

"True GF, you have me as a friend.", the fashionista suddenly laughed.

Middleton Police Station:

"I'm glad you could meet with us Mister Stoppable.", Detective Diggens told the blond teen as he offered his hand.

"Had to ditch school Sir to be here, but I felt this was more important at the moment.", the former running back responded.

"Mister Stoppable, this is Agnes Waterbirth and Charles Sinbath, they are members of the Middleton Family Services Group and are in charge of the welfare of minors in the city.", Diggens introduced the two members of the agency.

Ron reached over and shook their hands as Sinbath stated, "You played football for the Mad Dogs as running back?"

"Yes Sir.", Ron responded as he sat down, "My ten seconds of fame."

"And you are going off to college after you graduate and play at the next level?", Sinbath continued.

Ron frowned, "That remains to be seen, do you want me to call my lawyer in? I have a feeling this could go sideways if I don't have legal representation."

"For the moment I do not think that is a concern since all we are doing is gathering information at this stage. We do have some questions however that concerns the care your sister gets at home; how well will you be able to take care of your sister while going to college?", Agnes asked.

Ron frowned thinking about the subject, "If I go to college you mean, it will be difficult though there are other men that have done that in the past but considering my test scores…well they basically have me in the vegetable category. At the moment my chances at playing college football even if I wanted to are rather dismal so I am not counting on it."

Sinbath frowned, "You appear to be intelligent…"

"Appear is the key word I guess, but why don't we get to the reason you asked me to come in?"

Agnes Waterbirth sighed, "This is about your sister, Hanna, she is adopted, correct?"

Ron brightened, "Yeah, Mom and Dad adopted her last fall from some Japanese agency."

"And they moved her into your room?"

"Yeah, they did, but they built me a teen place down in the basement I even have my own internet connection, bathroom and cable TV though I sleep in the living room now so I can listen to see if Sis has any trouble sleeping. This has been a trying time for her you understand, and I don't know if she remembers her birth parents, but they were killed in a car accident in Japan, I am sure she remembers Mom and Dad.", Ron explained.

"Are you annoyed with your sister?", Sinbath inquired.

"Where did you hear that?"

Sinbath replied, "We have our sources, but this person was the only one to say such a thing."

"No, I am not annoyed with Sis. I am Jewish…well maybe…annoyed somewhat I mean, but as Jews we are taught to take care of our siblings….it is like a duty as my Rabbi says you understand, to put their needs above our own. Anyway, if this is me getting moved to another room, I have to tell you sleeping on the floor is better than the sleeping at Yamanouchi. Their beds are super hard."

"Yamminuchi?", Sinbath inquired.

Ron explained, "Yamanouchi is the school that I used to go to in Japan….it was an exchange student thing…it's over now. Christmas was the last time."

"Do you talk to your Rabbi often Mister Stoppable?", Agnes frowned while writing down the information.

"Not as often as I'd like, I work most days at a restaurant outside of town."

"Money stress?", Agnes inquired as she made notes.

"Yeah a little, Mom and Dad's estate got sued by someone and he basically won and he gets the house, actually he's the same guy who dropped her, so Hanna and I are moving…A friend has offered to give us a place to stay until the end of the school year. I plan to move to Lowerton during the summer and move into a condo or an apartment."

Ms. Waterbirth asked, "Why don't you wish to stay in Middleton?"

"When I got fired from Smarty Mart there was a clause in the agreement that I signed when I hired that they could enforce by lawsuit to keep me from working in Middleton if I were fired for a number of reasons. I didn't want to fight them on it, so I won't work in this town again. If I can't work here, why should I live here with the higher cost of living? I plan to live in Lowerton where it costs less since I am on a more limited budget. I don't want to burn through the rest of Mom and Dad's life insurance money until all of this stabilizes."

Waterbirth pointed out, "They have higher crime there as well."

Ron's eyes narrowed, "Why don't you tell that to a friend of mine, but make sure you talk loud; he was executed when he was working at a convenience store here in Middleton about a week ago and he was just buried a few days ago."

The two representatives of the child welfare group then said, "We interviewed Mister Thornbottom and he said he felt your sister was favoring her arm and squirmed and that was the reason he dropped her…"

"Oh? My Sister had several full body x-rays, MRIs and CT scans while in the hospital, what do they show… I know you spoke with the doctor.", Ron replied.

Sigh, "They showed that there were no injuries either new or old, but that doesn't mean that the child is in a healthy situation.", Waterbirth informed Ron.

"Did you speak with my Rabbi?"

"No, but we spoke with Mister Barkin…."

"Oh, you spoke with the guy who wants me to play football at Middleton next year even if I will be graduated? The guy who hates my guts? The guy who has tormented me for my whole time in high school? And you want to believe him and not another source?"

"Huh?", Sinbath got out.

Ron mock-lowered his voice as it hardened and his eyes narrowed even more, "Why don't you start interviewing other students at the high school to see how many years I've been there and what I've had to put up with? Anyway, I am in my fourth year…I turn eighteen this summer. Why don't you interview Doctor Anne Possible and Doctor James Possible? They both have known me since I was a toddler when I met their daughter, Kim. James Possible is a rocket scientist and is very good at math, he should be able to count to seventeen or at least four since that is how many years I have been in high school. I know this city is small enough you might have even heard of them. Hell, get a hold of the school board or my principal at school or even several officers of the Middleton Police Department, they are right outside this room. I can call them in for you to interview. You can even get hold of various national governments…I have been helping Kim Possible for years…they might even be able to vouch for me or at least my age….I can even get my passport and show it to you and that means that I've already documented myself to the United States Government. Then cross reference that with a guy who thinks I can go to school for six years just so I can play football for the honor and glory of ole Middleton High."

Ms Waterbirth sighed as she realized this interview had gone oblong and she wasn't going to be able to coerce the teen in question into giving up taking care of his adopted sister, "We will young man, for now you will remain the guardian for Hanna Stoppable, but we may take away that privilege if we find out she is not in a healthy situation."

"I expect nothing less; now do you need anything more? I have to pick up my sister at the hospital since she is being released today. I would have already done so except that I had to come here.", Ron stated, knowing he wasn't going to get anything better than that, "Oh, I know it's in your records that I was a volunteer fireman, but with school and taking care of Hanna I had to back out of that until I have childcare for Sis. Think of that as another character reference."

"Thank you for sharing all this information Mister Stoppable, we will be speaking with you again and we will check out the childcare areas of your work and where you plan to live in the near future, it might be best to let them know we will be coming."

"Okay, now if you need to reach me go through Kim Possible's site. Doctor Wade Load, the webmaster, monitors it twenty-four hours a day three hundred and sixty-five days a year and he has me on speed dial in case there is a world crisis that we need to defuse."

Ron then got up and walked out muttering to himself as he thought, 'I guess I'd better get my passport outta my safe to show it to these clowns otherwise this is going to more stupid than it already is and I guess I'd better call the lawyer too and let him know what's the latest in this angst fest that my life has become.'

Ron held his Sister as he waited for the receptionist to acknowledge him. Finally, when she set the phone down, she asked the teen, "Mister Stoppable what can Alan do for you today?"

"I've had another problem creep up where I might need his help in the near future.", the blond teen sidekick responded.

Martha Spriggle asked, "Oh? Pertaining to what? He cannot meet you at the moment, but maybe tomorrow…."

"Tomorrow is fine. It's about my guardianship of my sister, she was in the hospital due to a supposed injury while being babysat at a friend's while I was attending a funeral and I just met with Children and Family Services after one of my classmates made in my opinion some disparaging remarks about my character. They mentioned that they might take her away from me.", Ron informed the woman who was taking notes.

When she was done, she inquired, "I will have Alan look into this and find out what is going on. When we have enough information, we will call you in for a meeting."

At that moment the lawyer in question popped out of his office, he noticed Ron and smiled, "Ronald, how are you and Hanna?"

"Ah, good question and I wanted to make sure you know that something is going on. I gave the basics of it to your secretary though. I know you're busy…"

"I am, but I will look into your problem and get back to you, is that alright?"

"Yeah, and thanks.", Ron smiled as Hanna clapped her hands and laughed. To Hanna he said, "Come on kid let's go home and watch some of your favorite Flippies© movies.

After the teen and his Asian sister left, the lawyer muttered, "The world has crapped on him, and he just keeps going. I wonder if it's ever going to catch up to him?"

Martha frowned, "I'm afraid it will at some point Alan then someone is going to have to clean up a mess, I hope that young man doesn't do anything stupid."

Sigh, "Ron's a teen and teens do stupid things."

Middleton High, lunch:

Monique put her hand on Eric's arm, "So what's this, you think Stoppable is abusing his sister?"

The suave 'teen' leaned back in self-preservation as the African American teen seemed to intimidate him, "That is how it looked to me and I mentioned it to the police and the people from some organization who interviewed me the other day. I told them she seemed to be favoring her arm and that she squirmed from my grasp and that caused her fall."

Kim leaned in because occupants from other tables were paying attention, "That's not what you told me Saturday…"

"Kimberly, I have had time to think about it, but she did squirm…Now why would she do that? I am a nice person."

The red head agreed, "You are a nice person Eric, but it's not nice to tell people that a friend of mine was abusing his sister without proof, he could get in trouble even if he hasn't done anything. Basically, that was a false accusation."

"I did not mean to say that Stoppable had done it, the babysitter may have done it…"

Kim pointed out, "Ron's babysitter is the hospital nursery, and they have security cameras all over that place."

"I did not know…"

"You should have asked Tara over at that table, she knows since she works there. Also, there are security cameras in our homes which would show any abuse and don't think Wade wouldn't turn it in.", Kim pointed out and then called to the platinum blonde, "Hey T can you come over here?"

Tara did as asked, "What's up Kim?"

"Did Hanna Stoppable look to you like she had been abused the last time you babysat her?"

"Nope! Why, Kim?"

Monique informed the other cheerleader, "Eric thinks that the kid was favoring her arm like she was injured."

Tara King responded, "Nope and sometimes I get to watch her even outside at Ron's house though he usually takes her into work with him now since he gets home late sometimes."

Eric asked as he attempted to sow more dischord, "Work…Isn't that a dangerous place for a child? I'm glad that I told those people that Stoppable didn't seem to care for the baby."

Monique replied, "Ron takes her into the restaurant and one of the staff watches her while he works, I saw it for myself."

Tara turned to Eric, "You spread untrue rumors about a friend of mine? Rumors which could have to be investigated and could cost him his sister…you, you….ass! It's a wonder Ron's friends in school here haven't cornered you. I've heard there are places here that are not so nice."

'Eric' backed away knowing his mouth got him into more trouble, "I didn't think they were untrue…"

Dave Alberts, seeing the body language if the irate cheerleader, rose to his feet and hurried over to Kim's table and growled out, "What the hell is going on over here?"

Tara muttered aloud, "This jerk told Health and Family Services that Ron is abusing his sister." And it was loud enough where people including other several football players started to walk towards the table. Tara continued, rounding on the 'Brit', "And you are the jerk that kept Kim's mind off her best friend when you were on that rescue mission last fall, too. Causing her not to ask questions about where he was…and he had to walk home…through a blizzard, through a damned blizzard across mountains…He almost died! What do you have against Ron Stoppable?"

"I…I don't have anything against him at all, I just felt that his sister would be better off in another home.", Eric defended himself.

"Who made you the authority Eric?", Tara accused.

"Huh?", Kim responded.

Sigh, "I mentioned it before, Kimberly, she would be welcome in my parents' home. She would have all the advantages of a Thornbottom. Just think, the best schools, the best food and adventures. The best care…"

Even Monique thought this was wrong as the 'English teen' tried to make his case, "Stoppable, even though he isn't my friend, does a decent job of taking care of his sister. Get off his back or you and I will be at odds."

Eric, seeing that the whole damned cafeteria was up in arms, decided that for self-preservation he should make a strategic withdraw and announced, "I have to make a call, if you will excuse me."

The English teen paled as he almost called the group to tell them to evacuate. Once he got outside, he quickly called a number, "Yes nephew."

"Uncle Otto, we might have overplayed our hand…"

The older German inquired, "How so?"

Eric explained everything that had gone on in the lunchroom.

After listening, he told the leader of the little enterprise, "Moderate your tone, apologize to everyone for the misunderstanding and from now on listen to me. Make them understand that teenagers screw up all the time and for now stay away from the buffoon and his sister. Remind them things are different that where you are from."

"Still, Kimberly should have backed me up…"

"Hans, if you remember, there is only so much that drug can do to keep her in line and be loyal to you, per the written warnings. Now, if you let this go, it should be fine, now you listen to what I am telling you for a change. Now go back into school, don't appear to be weak, but make up some simple story and stick to it. Remember, it has to be logical.", the older man then disconnected.

'Eric' shrugged as he trudged back inside.

The raven-haired beauty glanced at her watch and got out of her rented vehicle and thought, 'What I do for that blue dope…Now he owes me another week of vacation for this.' She then got out and walked to the front of the school with her briefcase hoping she looked professional enough as it had been a while since she worked a straight job.

As the monkey enhanced martial arts master calmly thought as he sat in the lotus position while staring at the scroll held in his prehensile feet, he asked himself, 'How do I summon it? This will take much research. Oh well, I have time and Yamanouchi cannot find me here.'

Lord Montgomery Fiske, AKA Monkey Fist, finally rose and walked over to make a pot of tea to go with his scone. He had purchased the property he currently resided through his manservant Bates's cousin in the East Anglia area of England (of course without the stout and loyal Englishman even aware that this transaction had even taken place…AN)

'I should dye my hair and grow a beard and get some glasses to beat the facial recognition software in case they get my picture when I go to the library…but I must go to find the data I need to enact my plan or I may never defeat the imposter.', the wannabe Monkey Master thought to himself.

"Mister Hench…."

"Please Gemini, call me Jack, we have done a tremendous amount of business to our mutual benefit.", the nattily dressed supplier to techno villains worldwide suggested over the video chat.

"Very well. Jack, do we have any more information about Jones and his 'accident' last winter?"

Hench informed the one-eyed leader of the WWEE, "You mean his very gruesome murder? No, nothing that we can pin down. I am going to speak with Brotherson this week when I travel to the new area he is operating in however."

"I suppose that we must be patient, but from what I have seen it looked like a Special Forces unit took Jones' whole crew out…except, instead of gunshot wounds to the bodies, they were dismembered. Now, have you made contact with Drakken and Senior as I asked either?"

"I have inquired about them to return to our alliance, but so far, they have decided to stay away…They keep mentioning something about ethics and crimes against minors…I have been unable to completely ensure them that our 'agents' are not out for blood considering the deaths that Kim Possible's sidekick has suffered in his family…"

"We didn't target them Jack…"

"Not directly Gemini, but did our subcontractors? I have no way of knowing sure, but we agreed to let them do what they wanted on the pain of them taking our deposit and disappearing. Just so you know, they contact me, I cannot contact them."

"Do we need to make an example of Drakken and Senior to ensure compliance?", Sheldon inquired as he scratched his eye patch.

"That blue idiot has plans in place to take us on and he has Shego as his enforcer…And, he may still have some of those robots from last spring. You already know that Senior has each one of us targeted through his worldwide contracts that he has already paid if we attempt anything on him or his self-absorbed son.", Jack responded.

Sigh, "Very well, but just to give you the heads-up that we are going to launch a limited operation to lure Kim Possible here where we can deal with her on our own. But do not let this data be known until the attempt…"

"Gemini, I think our sub-contractors have this handled. Why not wait until we get the word that they have completed their contract or failed before attempting anything? We would look like our hands are clean.", Hench inquired.

"Several reasons Jack; first, we do not know for sure that this operation is going to succeed. Second, my men are not paying enough attention at the moment, and I want to ensure their continued focus. Third, I want to get a jump on all the others. And lastly, I just want to get on my sister's nerves.", Sheldon Director explained.

Hench frowned not understanding the sibling rivalry, "Why do you feel you need to get on Elizabeth Director's bad side at the moment?"

"Mother always liked her best.", the leader of the WWEE told the arms dealer.

Jack rolled his eyes at the screen, "Very well, Gemini, do whatever you think is best. It may even keep Kim Possible off balance. I will speak with you later." With that Hench pushed the button on his direct circuit and the screen shutdown.

He then stood up and went to his oh-so-fine bookcase, removed a heavy statue and hurled it at the screen, smashing it.

The for now, Stoppable home:

"Hey Dave, Liz come on in. Hanna and I are gonna have a snack.", the former running back greeted the other two teens at the door.

Dave stepped in, after his girlfriend, and handed the papers off to Ron he was holding. "Oh, just for the record Barkin is pissed at you, and Monique looked like she wanted to punch Possible's new squeeze in the lunchroom today."

Ron snorted, "Fifty-fifty day I suppose. Barkin is still an asshole and kudos for Jenkins' brain overcoming a desire to stomp that stuck-up prick. I'd hate to see her locked up for doing something I wanted to do."

Liz added, over her shoulder, as she picked up the raven-haired tyke, "Tara wanted to strangle him for dissing on you to the authorities. Kim even chided him…he was wayyyy over the line."

"Why was that?"

"He tried to make the case that you were an unfit guardian. Possible wasn't happy with that.", Liz informed her friend.

"That's ripe considering he was the one who dropped Hanna even after I told Kim I didn't want that stupid ass to be around Sis.", Ron retorted.

The sidekick rolled his eyes as Dave looked around and muttered, "Mike and the guys sure helped you clean the place out. Where is it?"

"Most of it is in a couple of large storage lockers, only have a few things left to go, but they'll go with me.", Ron explained as he twirled around with his arms extended.

Liz asked as he did so, "How are you going to turn the house over that jerk?"

"I'll hand my keys to my lawyer, and he will give them to Thornbottom's ambulance chaser."

Dave asked, "Why do you call asshole's attorney and ambulance chaser Ron?"

"Hank Perkins' night job is lawyer to the various techno villains we run across; he just stays clean enough so the police don't arrest him for being a criminal." (Ya know? Hank Perkins being involved in this lawsuit is a big red flag that should have brought down more scrutiny by Wade…Big missed opportunity to check out 'Eric's' background…CB)

"Sooooo…"

"Yeah, well don't trust him with a sack of potatoes…I don't know how he hasn't been disbarred yet. My lawyer will have a paper for him to sign because Perkins might even try to screw his client over.", Ron told Dave.

"I can see where you come up with the moniker Ron…"

"Hey I got enough stuff. Now, how about I make dinner? I figure I have a free babysitter for a while and I can cook and while we're eating, I can study, too."

Lil Miss Sours responded, "You don't have to feed us Ron…"

"I uh…well it's a lot better than eating by myself, although with Sis, my dinner is long forgotten by the time I get around to it."

Dave chuckled, "Welcome to being a parent, Ron."

"Yeah, sigh.", the blond teen started to sniffle then turned away.

The former HS quarterback looked at his friend with concern, "Ron?"

Ron Stoppable turned back to Dave halfway, "Uh sorry, it's a little rough. You guys and the rest have been great and I don't know how I woulda got this far without your help, ya know."

Liz hugged Ron with one arm, "You don't have to go through this alone…"

"Next year at this time, things will be better.", the blond teen muttered.

"Yeah,", Liz encouraged the former mascot softly, "when we come home from college for break, we'll hang out. It'll be just like old times. I bet a lot of the other girls from the squad would be into that too."

"Yeah Ron, not all the guys from the team are going off to college, Curt, Mike and Spiker are going to be in the area.", Dave added as he patted his friend on the shoulder.

Liz broke away and Ron set the homework papers down. Dave followed the former running back into the kitchen and lowered his voice, "Are you alright?"

"Sorry Dave, I had a weak moment."

"You know Barkin went off about you ditching school to pick Hanna up from the hospital. He's thinking about suspending you and considering he set a truant officer on you before semester break there is no doubt, he would do it.", Dave informed his friend.

Kim Possible's oldest friend began to chuckle.

"Ron…he's serious, I think."

"Let him, he has to appear before the school board this month and I'm sure I can get time with my lawyer to ask him questions. Some he may not want to answer. Some that may get referred to court."

Dave inquired, "What do you mean Ron?"

Sigh, "You know all that stuff with the athletic boosters.", Ron lowered voice.

"Yeah, I told Liz about some of it…I think Jenkins knows too."

"My lawyer clued me in cause he's seen a few things…"

"What did he say?", Dave now almost hissed because there were some things, things he was not happy about and he was going to spill to his uncle.

"The Feds might be looking into the activities of athletic boosters across the state."

Upperton, Colorado:

"Mister Rockwaller, I am Special Agent Simon Ribbots and this is Special Agent Paul Torcher.", the FBI agent introduced himself to the former head of the Middleton Athletic Boosters.

"Agents, I didn't know where else to turn and I felt this is a problem for the FBI.", Jacob began.

X

After two hours:

"Mister Rockwaller, if this is true, I highly suggest you retain competent legal counsel.", Torcher told Jacob after listening to his story.

Sigh, "I know I have committed federal crimes, agents, but I want to make it right."

"Do you have any data to back up your tale?", Torcher asked.

Rockwaller pulled out a CD out of his coat pocket and offered it to the agent, "I have more, but this is just the tip of the iceberg, so to speak. There are names, times, places and what happened. Go through it and see if you want to begin an investigation. I am willing to help, but I am not sure I want to retain a lawyer in Middleton because of connections…I was the head of the boosters, but even I didn't know how far the rot went."

"We can,", Torcher glanced at his partner, who nodded, "get you in touch with some people who can help you…They are not agency employees. You understand that making false statements to the FBI is a federal crime?"

Sigh, "I know that much, but if this is taken down."

Ribbots continued for the patriarch of the Rockwaller family, "You may end up with at least limited immunity if you fully cooperate."

"That is certainly an incentive. Thank you for meeting with me…I can wear a wire…sometimes even though I'm the former head…they ask me to attend meetings at least to introduce the new head."

Ribbots asked, "Why are you coming to us?"
