Ok guys this is it the last chapter! I'll have few important announcements in the author note below the chapter so please read them, to not prolong enjoy
Chapter 16
Aboard the alien space craft.
"Objective: total planetary domination," Warhok stated, raising his fist.
"Uarrh! That was my objective!" Drakken whined.
Warhok ignored him and pushed the button on his console, opening the belly of the ship, and shooting thousands upon thousands of walking war machines to devastate the Earth.
"Hey! We're a pretty tough planet!" Kim exclaimed.
"Yeah, tough!" Drakken supported her… not a second later his flowery collar popped out.
A purple scan of earth popped out exactly three minutes forty four seconds later.
"Victory is ours!" Warhok gloated with satisfaction.
"And I'm confident that we set a new Lorwardian invasion record!" Warmonga stated, smugly.
"Oh please, I call bull-buttons! You can't conquer the world in time that takes to order a pizza," he mumbled.
"Maybe you can't, but apparently they can…!" Kim shook her head.
Ruins of Middleton High.
Thanks to the Tweebs geniuses the school managed to regain its power. Most of the surviving students and parents hid in the gym. And currently Mrs. Possible and Stoppable were counting the present.
"And the Mankey family is missing too," Ron's mom said with a weary face. The alien attack was swift and brutal, decimating the army and city. People could only wonder how many more won't see the sunrise.
The fires raging in Upperton could be easily seen from the school and it was a few good kilometers away.
"That makes for round 40% of families missing," Mrs. Possible sighed sadly. While she never particularly liked the Mankeys, they hadn't deserved this fate.
"UAAHAAAAA," Barkin wailed loudly swaying back and forth on the ground. Nana Possible decided to take matter in her own hands.
"Now just listen to Nana these kids need to see adults who are brave and strong," she said with passion.
"You want me to pull myself together?" Barkin asked with hope.
"No… I want you to hide in nurse office until this whole business blows over!" Nana said harshly.
In the meantime Ron, Wade, and Mr. Possible were discussing the current situation in the science room.
"Ok, I'm uplinked to Jim and Tim's satellite… we're definitely getting a clearer picture," he paused.
"Aaannndddd?" Ron urged.
"It's bad," Mr. Possible said.
"Bad doesn't even begin to describe it." He deadpanned, "First they took out electricity… all around the world. Then they activated those machines, these machines… everywhere and they can't be stopped by convention means…?" They all looked grimly at the abruptly cut footage of human forces fighting the aliens.
"God…" Mrs. Possible mumbled.
Suddenly Ron's communicator beeped. He picked it up hoping that it was Kim. Ron was surprised to see Director Betty instead.
"Ron do you copy," she asked through the static.
"I do Dr. Director, what's the situation on your end?," he asked.
"Dramatic… USA has already fallen. Only Go-city is the last unconquered city thanks to team Go and the local villains helping to defend it," she told him
"Local villains?" Ron muttered flabbergasted.
"Yes Electronique, Aviarius, The Mathter, and many more are helping the team out. It's happening all over the world. Even my brother's WEE is fighting against them, Sheldon even called a truce between our organizations… but that's where the good news ends," she rubbed her temples. "Russia was just finished off since they got the bulk of the alien forces. Japan, China, and India are only going on thanks to the number of people living there. The rest of Asia has fallen as well as Africa, Australia, South America, and the Middle East. From EU, only Great Brittan, France, Germany, and Poland are still fighting… but it's a matter of hours before they fall too… we've lost." Betty finished grimly.
"No we have not!" Ron said with confidence he wasn't feeling. "We'll get Kim back and fix this mess… if she's lost in stars, I'm finding her… we'll need a rocket!" Ron looked Mr. Possible.
"God speed with you Ronald," Betty said. She wanted to say more, but a loud explosion cut her off.
"Suppressing fire," she shouted, cutting off the transmission.
The three men shared the demised look.
With Shego.
The green skinned villainess couldn't believe her eyes. The whole Tri-city was burning. From her hover craft she could see the thick smoke was all over the place with lumbering forms of aliens walkers decimating the buildings.
'Please be ok Ronnie.' Shego begged him in her thoughts. 'Don't do something stup-oh you've got to be kidding me!' Her eyes widened when she saw two figures on a very familiar motor bike riding madly, avoiding the oncoming walkers.
She saw how he turned sharply, with tiers screeching, missing the walker's foot by skin's teeth.
"I'm so gonna make him teach me that." Shego said with excitement. His near suicidal driving style make the adrenaline rush to her veins. Her excitement was halted when she saw that both of the males jumped from the bike when the walker blocked their path.
The machine crashed into the construct and exploded in a sea of flames.
"MY BIKE! NOOOOOOO!"
Even from up here she heard his painful wail. Shego quickly landed her craft and moved to aid them. Ron and Mr. Possible ran towards the Middleton space center that by some miracle was still intact, but before they managed to get past the gate, the alien machine was onto them. One of its leg destroyed the gate allowing them to sneak past it, but the machine wasn't about to let them go.
Shego saw that the walker trapped them in the force field between his legs. She jumped on a nearby wall and lit her hand.
"Hey I know that glow!" Ron exclaimed with happiness. Shego smirked and with a battle cry jumped on the walker and smashed its legs.
Ron rocket skated from below the machine, grabbing Mr. Possible with him.
"You wore rocket skates to the graduation," the older male asked.
"You never know, you know?" Ron shrugged.
"What a lovely evening Ronnie." Shego sneaked on him and pulled him into a deep kiss. "I'm glad that you're ok," she added more gently. "So where is miss priss?"
Both males pointed towards the sky making her groan in exasperation.
"Great… I was banking on Kimmie to do her save the world thing," she crossed her arms.
"Where's Drakken?" Ron asked.
"See previous," she also pointed the sky. "So what now?"
"We must get inside the building!" Mr. Possible said leading them inside. "The center has an independent power source," he told them, pulling on a switch. In an instant the whole hangar powered, illuminating a nearby space ship.
"Behold the Kepler II!" Mr. Possible stated, handing over a space suit to Ron. And motioned them to come to the platform and stared to rise towards the ship. "You know sometimes it takes something like this to make Hero and Villain work together for the common good."
"It happened to you before?" Ron asked.
"No heavens no, but once in college I wrote a Captain Constellation commix with a similar set up," he said with a laugh.
"Why am I always surrounded by geeks?!" Shego hissed through her teeth. "Ok, what's the plan?"
"Ronald and I will take the Kepler II up to the alien mother ship. You monitor here at mission control." Mr. Possible explained.
"Good plan, good plan," Shego said with a mischievous glimmer in her emerald eyes.
'Ohhh boy,' Ron thought. He knew that-that look won't mean anything good for the elder male.
"One twist…" Shego grinned and began doing a thing that could be considered a dire violation of personal space and even an rape attempt for the random bystander.
After she was done ripping the suit off Mr. Possible, she walked to the craft followed by an amused Ron.
Inside they saw how the elder man banged his fists against the hardened glass.
"Is he always this excitable?" Shego wondered, pointing at him.
"Yeah, he doesn't have the same missing trousers experience like me." Ron explained.
"Oh I can vouch for that," Shego purred making him blush. "But I needed a space suit." Then she lit the engines. The ship came to life with a roar and with insane speed, shot out of the hangar, and flew into the air and then space.
The sheer force pushed them into their seats, but Shego keep the handle firmly. When they finally get though atmosphere to the space the pressure lessened.
"Where the hell did you learned to pilot a space ship?" Ron finally asked.
"Who do you think piloted the go-craft?," she replied with a smug smile. "The principle is basically the same… so how do we do this?"
"I hope we can manage to get there undetected somehow. I mean we're goners if their defenses get us."
"Yeah, I saw a few fights on the ground… you know how is it going on the rest of the world?" She looked at him and saw the haunted look in his eyes. "That bad?"
"If we fail now, the whole world is doomed," he said quietly.
"No pressure at all," she tried to joke, but it felt dry. "Is anyone still fighting?"
Ron summarized what Betty told him. He saw how tightly she gritted the handle worry written all over her face. He put a hand on her shoulder.
"Hey, your brothers will be fine." Ron said, giving her a reassuring squeeze. "You don't need to be afraid."
"I'm not scared," she said harshly.
"Oh I am," Ron admitted.
"Yeah I know," she gasped when she saw enormous alien mother ship. "Ok I take it back… that's scary… we need to figure a way in?"
"Easy! Look for a garbage hatch." Ron said casually.
"Oh yeah, I'm sure that they have a garb–!" Shego paused when she saw the hangar opening with large bags leaving the ship."Er…?"
"And the first boo-yah in space… a BOO-YAH!" Ron cheered, pissing Shego off.
"Hang on," she grumbled. Ron instantly leaped and wrapped his arms around her. "Not to me... that we will do after this whole shit blows over."
"I so hate this suit now." Ron mumbled going back to his seat while Shego avoided the trash bags. She spun the ship and did sharp turns avoiding collision. "Shego! The hangar doors are closing!"
"I know," she snapped and accelerated, narrowly flying inside the larger ship. The whole room was filled with more trash bags and she landed the ship on unoccupied flooring.
The duo left the ship and looked around.
"Ok scanners show that it's ok for us to breathe." She pulled of her helmet and immediately circled her nose. "Oh god! This fucking stinks!"
"What did you expected from garbage?" Ron replied activating his wings. Shego followed suit. But before they moved to the exit, Ron flew closer and suddenly slammed his lips against hers surprising her. Her first reaction was to push him but then she relaxed and wrapped her arms around him. After a minute Ron broke the kiss.
"Shego whatever happ–!" He was interrupted when she put her finger on his lips.
"Don't say the whatever happens to me shit. You will say that on earth," she narrowed her eyes daring him to say anything.
"Then let me say that… I love you Sheila," he took her hand and leaned into it, pressing it to his cheek.
"I hate these sappy moments," she rolled her eyes, but a slight blush betrayed her. "But I love you too Ronnie, so don't you dare to die," she grabbed the hem of his suit and shook him roughly. "Is that clear?"
"Yes ma'am," he mock saluted and moved towards the doors.
They flew out of the garbage and gasped not expecting this sight so soon.
Earlier aboard the alien mother ship.
Kim and Drakken were moved to the cell via their flying bindings. But not before being shown dozens of videos of alien machines decimating the Human military and cities.
With scowls on their faces, they were moved to the cell. A large cannon came out of the floor and turned its barrel to them.
"Prisoners confinement complete," said the mechanized voice.
"Ok good." Kim said looking around the cell.
"What aspect of held prisoner aboard alien space craft is good?" Drakken snapped.
"It's good that they not paying attention to us. They think we're trapped here," she smirked.
"Aren't we?" Drakken asked.
"Not for long," Kim smiled slyly.
"Mhmm… I find your youthful optimism irritating," he grumbled. "Besides why bother?"
"What do you mean? We have to fight them!" Kim exclaimed.
"They won Possible… didn't you see the footage? None of us, not even ME with my Diablos could subdue the world like that," his shoulders slumped. "And even YOU can't beat them… it's my fault"
"How so?" Kim looked at his defeated expression.
"If I hadn't made that deal with Warmonga the world wouldn't be in such a mess." Kim could literally witness how the man aged a few decades. "And now I have millions souls on my conscience… all those people died because of me…" Drakken's voice broke slightly.
Kim looked at him with pity. Even at his worst, Drakken never even came close to killing anyone. Even his Diablos had a stun option when firing upon people. She was aware that he never was truly evil, rather bitter and misunderstood, but not evil, and now his mistakes were catching up to him.
"Cheer up Drakken, we can defeat them! There's still hope!" Kim urged, making him look at her.
"Really," he asked with disbelief.
"Yes, as long as we fight, there will be always a way to win. We just have to believe in ourselves!" Kimberly said with passion.
"Yes… we can't give up just yet! There have to be a way!" Drakken piqued with renewed vigor. He missed the sprout growing on his neck.
"What is that?" Kim asked leaning to see closer.
"What is what," he replied confused
"On your neck," she clarified.
"Ohh... huh? AAAA is it a bug!? Take it off, take it OFF," he panicked. A flower blossomed on the end of the sprout. "Oh this again…" he grumbled while flowery pelts grew around his neck. "This is not helping!" The stalk grew with the flower moving as if to look on Drakken's face. "Beat it!"
For the first time in her life Kim witnessed a plant being sad. The stalk grew longer and moved further away from Drakken. The cannon aim followed the plant, turning away from the pair of prisoners.
"Spankin," Kim smirked.
"Ahhh… teen slang." Drakken complained unaware that his flower was now uncomfortably close Kim's face, as if it was glaring at her.
"Drakken!"
"What?"
"Your flower," she exclaimed, trying to avoid the persistent plant.
"Just because it grew on me doesn't make it my flower. It's not like I can just say, flower attack Kim Possible!" He said in a mocking tone. But to their surprise, the vine obliged, and warped itself around Kim, lifting her into her air."Oh…?"
The canon reacted immediately and pointed at Kim, powering up. Before any of them managed to react, it shot, enveloping her into an explosion.
"You were a worthy foe… You were indeed all that… farewell Kim Possible," he said with genuine regret, losing all hope.
"Hello Drakken," Kim sing sang, tying a belt around her ruined robe. She jumped in front of Drakken attracting the cannon's attention. The machine shot two times, but she had no problems avoiding the shots. By some miracle the shots hit Drakken's bindings without harming him.
Kim grabbed him and let the cannon fire once more destroying the doors to the cell. She ran out and they dropped on the floor, opposite to the doors.
The stalk grew again, giving Drakken an idea.
"Flower, take out that cannon," he ordered with glee. The plant obliged and immediately wrapped itself around the machine. Then with one powerful squeeze, it crushed the cannon, making it explode.
"That is one tough mutant flower," Kim said in awe.
"Ha! I should've gone green years ago!" Drakken cackled.
"One green villain is enough for my tastes," she said standing up. "Now let's go, we need to get out of here." And they ran though dozen of corridors on the enormous ship, avoiding detection.
Slowly they started to get irritated with running through exactly the same looking corridors.
Then suddenly some doors opened. Kim was worried that it was the aliens, but couldn't help but shout…!
"RON!" Kim cheered and jumped into his open arms.
"KP!" Ron shouted back.
"SHEGO!" Drakken ran into his side kick arms, Shego doing the same. But they snapped back to reality before they managed to hug.
"Well took you long enough," Drakken said awkwardly turning back to her.
"Well… I've got lot on my plate… so you know… um…" she finally gathered her courage. "It's good to see you alive Drew."
"Likewise Sheila," he replied quietly.
"Did they really conquer Earth?" Kim asked with concern.
"Yes, they did, your family is fine," he said forestalling her second question. "But we have to do something really fast, the longer we take, the more people will die." Ron said seriously. "We have to deactivate those machines somehow."
Suddenly an alarm rang though the ship.
"Shit! They must've found the Kepler II!" Shego growled.
"Hell, that was our ride home!" Ron cursed.
"Not anymore, we have to find a way to bring this bucket down! Let's go!" Shego ordered and ran in a random direction with rest following her.
"Oh great, now she's in charge?" Drakken grumbled.
Back on earth, GJ Headquarters in New York.
BOOOOOM!
A tremendous explosion ripped the alien walker apart, causing the defenders to cheer.
"I see that Professor Dementor's Ion canon is working perfectly." Dr. Director Betty said looking at the battlefield. Her face was weary from exhaustion, not to mention she had numerous bandages covering her body.
"Indeed it is sister," Gemini replied with his hands behind his back.
They were both standing in high building that served as GJ HQ. The building was forty seven floors high and built from resistant material that allowed it to survive the numerous blasts form the alien crafts.
Gemini arrived shortly after the initial invasion with fresh troops and a formidable cannon that was now placed on the building's roof, showering alien machines with death.
The building was previously surrounded by gardens, but now they were turned into trenches where GJ and WEE agents were fighting for their life's. The stragglers form national self-defense forces, soldiers, and police men joined too, hoping to repel the invasion.
"But it seems that the aliens changed their tactics?" Gemini looked at the reports of miniature versions of alien walkers killing people. "We cannot hit targets that small and only the most powerful anti-tank rifles can do something against it… and we have way too little of those."
"We must hold on… Team Possible is engaging the aliens in space, so we must hold the ground here." Betty said with determination. "How's the situation at other places?"
"Beijing and New Delhi just have fallen… meaning that Asia is done for. As for safe places – are the pocket of resistance, namely our organizations bases… London and Paris are done for too, leaving Berlin and Warsaw the only free capital cities in the world... for about few hours," he rubbed his temples. "Maybe less… the satellites show alien reinforces coming on them from both sides," he paused when he saw another Sky scraper breaking in half. "Good Lord."
"DR. DIRECTOR!" Will Du shouted, bursting into the room. "The alien mini vessels broke through our defense lines and are penetrated the building!" Will Du gasped for air. He was bleeding all over his body and looked like he was about to faint. "You need to evacuate!"
"I will not abandon my men!" She snapped sharply.
"With all due respect… but you have too. We've lost… you need to live to lead the resistance," he urged.
"My answer is the same agent!" Betty said sternly. "I'll will not – AUGH!" She fell unconscious to the ground, paralyzed by the taser-gun shot from her brother's hand. Sheldon gently picked her bridal style.
"She was always the stubborn one," he said with slight chuckle.
"You won't hurt her?" Du asked, gripping his rifle tightly.
"We may argue about everything, but she's still my sister… and my last living relative… mother would never forgive me if I harmed or let anyone harm my younger sister," he added with a pang of pain.
"I see… then Godspeed to you Gemini." Du saluted and reloaded his rifle.
"Godspeed Agent Du," Gemini nodded, moving towards his stealth plane. He spared the last look on the burning city. 'I hope team Possible prevail.'
Alien mother ship – Engine room.
"You just had to find the loudest room in whole damn ship!" Kim shouted, pressing her hands to her ears trying to block the sound.
"Look there's a power grind! Let's destroy it! That should do something!" Shego shouted back.
"If I were and off switch, were I would be?!" Ron wondered looking around.
"Oh I'm sure that a super advanced alien race would have something like an–!" The ship suddenly lost all power and started to fall towards Earth."Off switch?" Drakken mumbled numbly at a smugly smiling Ron.
"Ok, we need to get out of here." Shego said
"Wait a moment," Ron pulled out a Kimmunicator. "Wade do you copy?"
"Yup all the static suddenly disappeared," he said with smile.
"Listen, I'm going to plug you to the ship core, download as much data as you can." Ron pulled out the nearest console and used the universal plug installed in the Kimmuniacator. It could download data directly from hardware.
"Ok I'm doing it, now go! The ship already entered the atmosphere!" Wade shouted.
Meanwhile at the bridge, the two Lorwardians were looking at the pathetic human remnants trying to fight off their invasion force.
"It's been long time since I saw a race this pathetic," Warhok stated. "Maybe we should not admit that we conquered them?"
"Hmm, I'm starting to think so too… they destroyed a decent amount of our machines by now, but it's just us fighting them." Warmonga replied, "We didn't even need to call the fleet."
Suddenly the ship lost all its power and started to fall towards the Earth.
"What madness is this?!" Warmonga shouted.
"They found the off switch!" Warhok growled with fury.
"Long have I questioned the wisdom of that accursed switch," she stated looking at her companion with irritation. Then they both ran at full speed to the engine room.
Ultimately they bumped into Shego and Kim.
"YOU and–!" Warhok started.
"And you must me Mr. Warmonga." Shego said with a sweet smile.
"She is the blue imposter's battle maiden," the female alien said.
"Whoa! Time out!" Shego snapped. "There's nothing between me and Drakken, I've got a much better man," she gloated.
"BOO-YAH!" Ron suddenly appeared flying at full speed at the aliens with a shouting Dr.D on his back. He planted his feet at Warmonga cheek sending her flying into Warhok and then further into the wall. Without stop, he flew deeper into the corridor
"That was cool," she admitted.
"Yeah," Kim agreed.
"Let's go, this dump is going to crash soon." Shego flew into air too and begrudgingly extended her hand to Kim. "But this doesn't change anything! I still think that you're a spoiled bitch!"
"Vice versa," Kim replied with furrowed brows.
Both ladies quickly caught up to the males.
Ron glanced at Shego and extended his hand. He looked at it and gave him are you a kidding expression which he countered by come on!
Rolling her eyes, Shego grabbed his hand, and intertwined her finger with his. She turned her head with and it's so beneath me expression, but Ron saw a small smile on her face.
The red headed teen looked at the scene with jealousy mixed with sadness. She wondered if in some other dimension she would be the one holding Ron's hand right now.
A powerful explosion interrupted the almost idyllic flight separating the two pairs.
"Ok princess what now?" Shego asked.
"Why you're asking me?" Kim wondered.
"Because you're the hero, the girl that can do anything," she added sarcastically, making Kim bite her lip.
Meanwhile the fact that Drakken was sitting on Ron's back was really dragging down his coolness… which he vocally voiced.
"Well pardon me, not everyone of us have the power of flight!" Drakken snapped.
"Oh complains, complains! You know when life gives you lemons–!" Ron started.
"I complain about the lemons!" Drakken paused, "Uhah…!"
"Dude, you ok?" Ron asked.
The mad doctor started to mumble something incoherent.
"Dr.D?" Shego looked at him with concern. IT would be bad if he lost it right now.
"My mind… it's racing, it's uncanny, I see every detail," he exclaimed.
"Of what?" Kim pressed.
"My greatest plan ever!" Drakken actually started to tear up a little.
"To save the world?" Ron clarified making Drakken snap out of his daze.
"Do not make me say those words!" He wailed.
The group flying through the large doors found themselves in a hangar filled with what looked like air bikes and rocked skate boards.
"Sweet!" Ron grinned and walked to one of the machines. "Just when I lost my bike!" He pushed a random button and the machine roared to life. "Kim hop on, the controls are like a standard bike."
"How do you know," she asked, sitting on the machine.
"Call it intuition," he replied looking around. "Damn so much of cool stuff here," he sighed.
"Ok stop geeking off with that junk… we've got bigger problems." Shego pointed at the door that burst open with two very pissed of aliens coming thought it.
"How dare you strike her?!" Warhok roared and jumped at Ron with fury in his yellow eyes. The blonde jumped back avoiding being turned into human mash potatoes. For his size the alien was deadly fast.
Warhok swung his fist again and this time Ron instead of dodging decided to counter attack. He jumped on his fist slamming it into the ground and using his leg delivered a powerful kick to the alien's face.
He had to stifle a painful groan. He felt like he just kicked a steel wall. The alien grinned and caught his leg, and then he swung him, making him crash into the equipment standing nearby.
Somewhere along the fall he accidentally turned on one of the Lorwardian rocket disks and made it crash into the wall, creating a large hole in the ship hull.
"There's our way out!" Shego screamed and grabbed Ron while Drakken hopped at the back of the borrowed alien bike. They flew out the ship and were almost cooked alive by the heat around the falling ship.
"Kim, take Drakken to wherever he wants! The bike is probably much faster than our jet packs!" Ron shouted flying on his own now. They had to avoid the mini explosion coming from the falling ship. Not that the wind pushing them in that direction helped. "Shego and I will hold them till you come back!"
"Stay alive!" Kim screamed back and somehow kicked the hover bike into a higher gear, accelerating with an unearthly speed.
"WARMONGA!"
"AAAAAAAAAA!"
"Oh that will take some effort… if their screams are any indication," Ron mumbled. "Ok which one do you want? Big and scary or scary and big?"
"I'll take the bitch, I have a score to settle." Shego lit her fist.
"O~kay" Ron nodded and flied towards the Warhok while Shego turned and gave Warmonga a nasty glare.
"I'll end you today you alien bitch!" Shego shot a few plasma bolts at her, but she deflected them all using her staff.
"You're too weak to even be the blue imposter battle maiden, your weak mate will perish too. Warhok is one of the greatest warriors of Lorwardia!" The alien woman exclaimed and shot beams of energy at Shego. Using her speed, she nimbly avoided it.
"Please my Ronnie will make Warhok his little bitch in no time!" Shego laughed. "A guy who wears a loin-cloth isn't gonna defeat my man."
Warmonga growled and moved her desk to intercept Shego, but the green skinned villainess ducked and shoot more plasma balls.
"Your mere trickery is nothing compared to Lorwadian's might!" She roared and charged at Shego, slashing and stabbing with her lance.
One blow almost took Shego's head off. She could smell the stench of burned hair. Growling savagely, she shot a powerful ball of plasma almost at point-blank range at Warmonga face making her shout in pain.
"Do you know how long it took me to make my hair!?" Shego yelled
"It will be hung among my other trophies along with your head," the alien woman growled. Shego's blast burned some of her hair too, but mostly the skin on her forehead. With any normal human it would be a severe second degree burn, but for Lorwardian skin it was barely a first degree one.
Shego's hair swayed wildly on the powerful wind creating a black aureole behind her head. With her green glowing hands and a dark look on her face, she looked like a fallen angel ready to take brutal revenge on its enemies.
Both ferocious females collided again in deadly duel.
At the same time both males had similar duel… to a certain extent.
"I have to say that your wing looks really awesome," Ron stated, admiring the design. "It gives that I'm a sky predator vibe."
"Ha! You have a keen eye human! Those were designed after a mighty predator on Lorwardia!" Warhok boasted.
"Ok, I've been meaning to ask, why the hell are you attacking our planet?" Ron was genuinely curious about the answer.
"The Blue imposter humiliated my companion Warmonga by pretending that he's the chosen one of our people… besides it is in Lorwardian doctrine to conquer primitives." He grinned with malice, "You're pathetic race will hold a certain amusement value, you will make a perfect source of entertainment… that green midget might even have a private entertainment value," he leered.
Ron's eyes widened in shock at the suggestion, and then his face darkened.
"How dare you…!" he growled.
"And there's nothing you can do to stop us worm," he pointed his gun at Ron's face aiming to end it in instant, but what he hadn't expected was a sword appearing in the blonde's hand out of nowhere, and slicing his blaster in half.
"No one...!" Ron said fury evident in his voice. "Will ever treat her as a toy ever again!" His eyes started o glow blue! "She's mine!"
He moved closer and slashed.
Warhok barely dodged in time to avoid having his head sliced in half. A horizontal cur appeared on his face going thought his nose. Green blood started to seep from his wound.
"You vermin! You dare to draw my blood!" Warhok roared and pulled a staff similar to Warmonga's but when he activated it… it turned into a nasty looking double axe, with some draconic creature skull serving as a tip.
Ron had a nasty feeling that he would end like a character from Dark Souls after receiving a hit directly from that.
He made some distance and with the corner of his eye, saw that they were nearing the Middleton coast.
He grit his teeth when he saw the columns of smoke coming out of the city. The sun was slowly rising behind them illuminating the sight of destruction.
Somewhere in the dark corner of his mind he had a desire.
A desire he would never share with anyone, especially with Kim and Sheila.
It was a desire to brutally murder those two aliens – to dismember their bodies and annihilate the remains.
Middleton was his home, the place where he spent his childhood, and had his best memories. And now it was in ruins.
And Warhok had a gall to insinuate that he would take his Sheila as a sex slave.
Ron was not by any means a vengeful person, but even he had his limits.
"Hey are you going all Zorpox again?" Shego's voice snapped him out of his dark musings.
"No… I'm just getting pissed off." Ron said, his face softening. He hadn't even noticed her moving closer. Turning back, he saw two Lorwardians on their tail.
"No way! Ron Stoppable is getting pissed off, the world really is ending." Shego joked.
"Not on my watch!" He stated, "We must keep them busy!"
"Yeah, yeah I know, but Princess and Dr.D should hurry up, it's not like the fight is getting easier." She sent a blast and the nearest walker, blasting one of its legs, making it fall.
Ron extended his blade and cut one in half. Apparently the alien materials weren't magic resistant.
"Hmph show off." Shego muttered blasting more machines.
They parted flying deeper into the city with machines hot on their tail. They avoided the debris flying from the crushed buildings as the machines wreaked havoc in the town.
Both of them tried to ignore the shouts of terror coming from all around them when the people were forcibly ejected from the buildings and were falling to their doom.
Ron really wanted to help them… but he had too much trouble with staying alive. He forced the tears back when he heard a particularly young sounding scream.
"I swear they will pay," he gritted his teeth.
Shego was in similar predicament, but in her case she simply vented on the nearest walkers, but to her dismay they seemed to multiply.
Finally after few minutes of mad flight around the city, the machines managed to corner them in the center of the town, surrounding them from all sides. Ron and Shego landed, standing back to back preparing for the worst.
"It looks like here we make our stand." Ron uttered, glaring at the machines.
"Oh don't be so dramatic," Shego nagged. "Any regrets? "
"Yeah a lot actually," he despite the situation chuckled.
"Top of the list?" Shego pressed.
"The fact that when we had an occasion we were too sore to do anything," he said with slight blush.
"Maybe if we ask nicely they will give us five minutes. After all that's all you need," she giggled.
"No need to rub salt in my wounds," he mumbled, making her laugh harder.
"THIS ENDS NOW!" Warhok exclaimed. He was about to rant more, but was interrupted.
"Not yet!" Kim exclaimed stopping her alien bike above them. Ron almost yelled in happiness at her sudden appearance. "But very, very, soon!"
"Prepare to taste defeat!" Drakken proclaimed from his hovercraft. "And boy is it salty!"
Drakken started to spill the goo from his super-high pollinator on the walkers, covering them with it. Soon all the machines were dripping with wet green goo.
The aliens started to laugh madly.
"These Earthers are inferior pest, but they are amusing." Warmonga stated.
"ATTACK!" Drakken roared. As on cue, vines started to sprout from the green goo, and wrap itself around the walkers to... blossom into many beautiful flowers.
"It's a cheerful attack," Warhok commented with amusement.
"Oh Blue imposter what were you thinking?" Warmonga shook her head and then they again burst out laughing.
"Take them down boys! Or is it girls… bah who cares!" Drakken ordered.
Soon the laugh died in the alien's throats and their mouth hung agape as their machines started to fall one by one, being crushed by the mutated vines.
Both warriors couldn't believe their eyes. The cutting edge of Lorwardian tech was being decimated.
"By mere flowers?" Warmonga choked in disbelief.
"This insult will not stand!" The alien warrior fired on his jet pack and charged towards Drakken. But Kim forestalled him. She jumped from her bike doing a gracious front flip and landed on Warhok's back. She unhooked the straps holding the jet pack and sent it crashing into the struggling walker causing it to explode to bits while the alien fell into the web of wines and was immediately immobilized.
Kim started to fall to the ground, but Ron quickly flew to catch her bridal style.
Warmonga jumped on her rocket disk, wanting to help her comrade, but Shego wasn't about to let her.
"FOR LORWARDIA!" Screamed the green giantess.
"FORGET IT!" Shego charged at her. Just about when they were about to collide, she ducked underneath her disk and with a well-placed plasma shot, she blasted it to bits, making Warmonga fall into the very same vine web as Warhok.
They all landed and Ron let Kim go. For the moment they looked at each other in silence.
"It's finally over," Kim said with relief. "Worst day ever."
"Just wait to when the cleaning starts," Ron replied.
"Uhh that will suck," Shego said. "So Ronnie what would you say to – OH SHIT!" Shego managed to exclaim before she was swatted back by a large hand. The force of the hit was so strong that she created a dent in the concreted wall.
"Did you think that the fiercest warrior in the galaxy can be defeated by mere children and flowers?" Warhok mocked.
"Sheila! I'll murder you, you bastard!" Ron charged with battle cry raising his blade high. But being blinded by anger, his attack was too straight forward. Warhok swung his massive axe and sadly Ron decided to block it instead of dodging.
The closest feeling he would get to what he felt would be if the train hit him. The force behind the alien strike was monstrous. Only thanks to the blade he was still alive, albeit flying at an insane speed back.
Kim hadn't even had time to dodge her oncoming friend. Their bodies collided painfully, stunning Kim for the moment.
Not a second later she was caught by the leg and brutally yanked into the air by a triumphing Warhok.
"Ha! Come Warmonga it will look nicely next to the Thorgoggle spine I gave you," he shook the dizzied Kim.
"And this will look even better decorating my threshold," she presented him equally dizzied Shego.
"You are the monkey master." Suddenly Sensei's projection appeared.
"S-Sensei?" Ron uttered, trying to get from the ground.
"This is your destiny, you are ready." Sensei stated.
Ron felt power coming back to him, the old man's words built up his confidence. He looked at the aliens toying with two most important women in his life.
"Slaughter them…" A much darker voice sounded in his head. He started to see red for the moment, feeling a heavy and dark presence in his mind. But as soon as it came it was gone replaced by a wave of calmness.
If Ron turned around he would see that Sensei's eyebrows were knitted in a tight in effort to keep the presence away.
Even if it was only for a moment, Ron knew who touched his mind.
Yono the Destroyer.
But the blonde had more pressing matters on his mind now then than the thousand year old evil monkey.
"Hey Warhok!" He shouted drawing the male alien attention. "I ain't done yet!" Ron's eyes started to glow blue and the Lotus Blade released a loud hum as if anticipating the battle.
Warhok threw Kim carelessly to the ground and raised his axe high.
"FOR LORWARDIA!" He charged with a battle cry. Ron replied with a charge on his own, a roar of fury following suit.
Both blades collided, but this time Ron wasn't pushed back, he stood his ground. The MMP gave him the boost he needed.
Their weapons connected again. Each time Ron swung his sword, the power exploded around the warriors in the shape of a blue demonic monkey releasing a monkey like roar.
"His monkey power is strong Boo-yah," Sensei smiled at his young apprentice.
Warhok sent his mighty axe down at Ron's head, but the blonde nimbly dodged, and managed to graze his side. For his size, the alien was quite nimble.
But that only made Ron more determined.
Gathering his power, Ron went for the stab at Warhok's chest, but the alien used his axe as a shield. But what he hadn't expected was the strength behind this hit. He was pushed a few feet's back and was showing no signs of stopping.
'How is this possible! Me the strongest warrior in galaxy pushed back by this… this pest!' He thought in disbelief.
He dug his heels into the ground, stopping Ron's advance. The veins were popping on his throat and neck from effort. With a mighty roar, he swung his axe from his chest, sending Ron flying back. But instead of crashing into the nearest building, Ron did a gracious back flip, and landed on the building with his legs touching the wall. Moving his powers to his legs, he jumped, creating dents in the concentrated wall.
Warhok was so shocked by the maneuver that he hadn't had the time to react except covering his chest with his axe. The moment they collided Warhok was sent flying at insane speed back, crashing through multiple of ruined walls, to stop face in dirt. He was now lying in the center of the plaza… or what used to be a plaza.
The place was filled with holes and the local previously neat plant life was now devastated
The male alien body was covered in cuts and was bleeding heavily from numerous wounds.
"Warhok!" Warmonga ran to his side. "Are you ok," she asked with concern.
"I'm fine," he replied, standing up. He looked at his weapon and froze.
It was covered with the web of cracks.
A reward for his deeds from the Emperor of Lorwardia himself was now cracked. He touched the axe with shaking hands… the moment his fingers reached it crumbled like it was made of glass.
"Warhok," Warmonga placed her hand on his shoulder. "We'll have our revenge."
"Revenge?!" An amused/pissed off voice sounded through. Both aliens turned their heads to the hole that Warhok came though, seeing Ron glowing with blue power."Yes I will have that…!" Ron growled. "You devastated my planted! You killed millions of its inhabitant! You ruined my city! You hurt my best friend! And you dared to threaten the woman I love! Yes I will have my revenge! None of you bastards will leave this planet alive," he roared, flaring his MMP.
Unconsciously the aliens gulped. The killer intent coming from the blonde was unlike anything they ever encountered.
Ron walked slowly towards them dragging his swords on the nearest wall creating a nasty screech.
"You arrogant pest! You think you stand a chance against the might of Lorwardia!" Warmonga readied her lance. But she was nervous.
Ron was now enveloped in a blue… radiation power, unlike anything she had ever seen… could it be?
'That he's the Great Blue,' she thought, but shook it off. "For Lorwardia!" She charged.
Ron saw right through her. He could see her anxiousness with naked eyes. He casually side stepped the sluggish thrust and grabbed her lance. Then in one swift move, he cut it in half.
Before Warmonga managed to do anything, he delivered a kick to her knee, breaking it open.
"AAAAAHHHH!" Warmonga screamed in pain and fell to the ground clutching her abused limb.
She looked up and saw that Ron was about to deliver the finishing blow. Her whole life flashed before her eyes.
But before the blonde managed to finishes her off, Warhok jumped at him with two blades coming from his gantlets. Ron jumped back and looked into a hateful yellow pupil less eyes.
Both of them started at each other in silence, having murder written all over their faces. They were so absorbed by it that they missed the arrival of Shego, Kim, and Drakken all on his hovercraft.
A piece of building broke off and fell to the ground.
"AAAAAAAAA!" Both on them charged at each other roaring with hate. Dust flew into the air as both warriors ran to face their destiny.
Life or Death.
There was nothing in between. No time for defense… just attack.
BOOOOM!
"Oh my God!" Shego let a gasp unlike her, covering her mouth. The moment Ron and Warhok crashed, the power the blonde was accumulating literally exploded shooting a cloud of dust into the air.
"RON!" Kim screamed. "Drakken, land!"
The doctor knew better than to argue and obediently landed, letting both females limp out of the craft.
After a few seconds, the dust started to settle.
Shego and Kim squinted their eyes and managed to see two silhouettes in the cloud. With the lucky gust of wind, the sight cleared showing Ron and Warhok standing back to back with few meters between them.
They immediately noticed that Warhok's blades were broken.
"To think I would find my end… on such a planet?" He turned back and looked at Ron who still was turned back. "It was a glorious fight," and an oblique line appeared on his chest. It was going from his right shoulder to his left side. In an instant, green blood erupted from it.
THUMP!
Half of Warhok's upper torso slid down and fell to the ground while the rest of his body stood for few a seconds before it joined the other part on the ground.
"WARHOOOOOOOOOOOOK!" Warmonga released a painful scream and started to crawl towards her fallen comrade. She reached him and cupped his lifeless face, tears sliding down her cheeks. "You monster," she shouted.
That seemed to wake Ron from his stupor. He turned back and glared at her with icy cold eyes, his face was devoid from any emotions. He started to slowly march towards her, with all intention to end that invasion. Warmonga's eyes widened in fear and she quickly pushed a button on her glove, but apparently whatever it was wasn't working, because nothing happened.
"Your trinkets will not save you," he stated raising his sword. But before he managed to deliver the slash a double voice stopped him.
"RON!" Shego and Kim shouted in unison.
"It's enough! She's defeated!" Kim yelled. "You don't need to kill her! We can handle her over to the authorities!"
"What authorities?" He asked rhetorically. "In case you hadn't noticed, everything's in ruins!"
"Stop being so intense Ronnie. Princess is right, there's no need to finish her off." Shego said. "She will get what's coming for her, but at the hands of the GJ."
"And since when you're so law abiding!" Ron snapped, making her flinch with the amount of venom in his voice. "I want to kill her… I want to kill her so badly," he pressed his blade to Warmonga's throat. "I can't stop shaking."
"Ronnie…" Shego whispered. She saw many times how such intense hatred destroyed people in the end… herself almost included.
"Is that really your desire?" Sensei suddenly appeared, startling everyone except for Ron." Are your thoughts really your own?"
"Of course they are! I want to brutally murder her!" Ron shouted and suddenly his eyes widened. "Did I just say that?"
"Focus Ron-san, get rid of that dark presence… let your pure heart banish it from your mind. Ron closed his eyes and gathered his power.
Just like her trained. He focused his aura on himself and filled every fiber of his body with it. He immediately felt the dark power, like tentacles rooted in him. He started to purge it from his body. It was hard since the presence fought him, resisted his efforts. Then when it felt like he was making progress, his mind was enveloped by darkness.
For a second, a visage of Yono appeared before his eyes. But it was not the one of monkey but of a man. He was tall and muscular with crimson red hair and sickly green eyes that glowed with unnatural light.
"You can be much more than you are now Ron," he smiled. "Come find me when the time comes."
And with that, the presence was gone.
Ron opened his eyes and saw that he was still pressing his blade to Warmonga's throat. He looked into her eyes, but this time instead of fear he saw… worship?
Not dwelling on this any longer, he turned his blade into staff, and slammed it in her temple knocking her out.
'It's over,' he though wearily. He hadn't even managed to relax when two bodies collided with him, almost knocking him to the ground.
"What the–?" Ron wasn't able to finish because Shego shut him by pressing her lips to his. Kim let a huff of displeasure, but hadn't interrupted the kiss.
"Um... guys?" Drakken interrupted with urgency. "Hey… it's really important… HEY!" He finally shouted.
"WHAT?!" The trio exclaimed.
Drakken pointed the sky.
Apparently they all forgot about the alien ship… that was falling right on their heads.
"Give me some space," Ron asked. The ladies stood back and watched the show.
Ron took a deep breath and extended his arms to his sides. To everyone's' utter shock, he started to float with red energy forming a circle around him, the sounds of monkeys were now clearly heard.
"AAAAAA!" Ron felt power coming out of his body as he literally gained a cloak resembling a monkey. The glow in his eyes intensified and extended beyond his eyes.
He looked at the falling ship and moved his hand to its direction. Then with visible effort, he started to move his hand to the side.
Everyone started to gasp as the falling ship… started to change trajectory?
"Impossible… the energy required to change the path of such an object!" Drakken rubbed his eyes.
Ron with titanic effort slowly made the ship turn and bit by bit, changed it so it would fall to the ocean.
The ship let a metallic screech as it changed it path. Finally the burning monstrosity crashed into the ocean a few kilometers from Middleton and sank to the bottom of the ocean.
Ron looked at his work with content and landed down.
The earth had finally won.
A smile crept on his face despite extreme weariness. He leaned on the nearest ruined wall and slid down to the ground. Ron looked at the rising sun and the clear blue sky which never was more beautiful than now.
He heard some rusting and then a second person joined him. Shego took his hand and intertwined her fingers with his. She rested her head on his shoulder.
"You did it Ronnie… you saved us all," she whispered. "You're now a big league hero now," she smiled warmly at him.
Ron gave her weak smile, feeling his eyelids were heavy. Just now exhaustion from last 24 hours was catching up with him. He squeezed her hand bit tighter making her snuggle closer.
Kim was watching the scene with a heavy heart, but decided to give them privacy they needed. Ron needed a person close to him and even if it wasn't her, she wouldn't pry.
If Shego was making him happy then it was fine with her. Kim finally started to accept that this ship sailed off and she needed to move on.
Drakken was also looking at the scene with disbelief. He had noticed their suspiciously close behavior during the fight, but now it was apparent that they were a couple. He felt a bit of pride that Shego finally managed to crack out of her shell and trust someone. And he also felt reassured that she picked wisely. What's his name would never hurt her in any way possible, it wasn't his style.
All four of them were admiring the rising sun… but also the sight of the ruins hadn't escaped their notice. The back slash of the invasion will be horrible and the reconstruction tedious.
Ron turned his head and looked deeply into Shego's emerald eyes knowing one thing.
Whatever the future would throw at them they wouldn't face it alone.

OF THE BEGINNING!
HA! I've bet I've got ya all! You really have thought that I was going to end it with so many loose ends? Not on my watch! So guys officially ARC I is done! And ARC II will be a direct continuation.
NOW WARM THANKS FOR MY FANTASTIC BETA IMYOSHI for helping me out from the very first chapter!
Ok now for annoucments!
1. I wrote my fourth story called Killzone Effect! If you liked the parts when humans fight off aliens then this is story for you!. You will have something like that but on much more bigger scale! So those who are interested go to my profile and check it! Don't forget to leave a review!
2. I have proposition for you all who want to write a RonGo story but for some reasons can't bring themselves to. I'm offering to give my PATRONAGE to those that are willing to write a story! I'll offer my help and advises, but I also won't sugar-coat anything but don't worry I won't flame, those who are interested PM me and I'll give you few rules I have to set before accepting request. Don't be scared I don't bite.
3. As for arc II I'll write it after I'm done with one of my stories (Most probably Killzone Effect) so be watchful for the update because we haven't even reached half of what I have planned for it!
4. I have few stories you absolutely have to read since they are very well written but for some reason they have way too little reviews, favs follows!
a) Sky is Over- by Yaodai. It's from Xiaolin Showdown and tell a story of what Jack could be is he was more prepeared for the fights. Really good story with good spelling and grammar. Very plesant to read.
b) Ultimate Spider-Man: The Phantom&Ultimate Spider-Man: Specter Haven- by Aferus, from Ultimate Spiderman. The story is about his/hers OCC but written in such way that you feel that this is part of the show. The characters are deep and well written. Phantom is the original and the Haven is a sequel. Really worth it.
