Chapter 1: Capture
Kim Possible sat on her ornate throne legs crossed a bored look in her eyes. Before her stood a terrified looking guard dressed in a maroon and black uniform, he trembled on one knee, not out of fear but exhaustion. Guards stood against the wall of the room staring at the sight. She finally spoke. "You may stand now. I grow tired of watching you kneel." The guard stood and saluted. "Thank you Empress." She rolled her eyes. "Yeah, yeah. What news do you have for me?" She sounded impatient; he gulped and cleared his throat. "Empress the lab is almost finished with your request." She glared down at him, he winced under her gaze. "Almost?" She asked. The guard gulped again and nodded.
"Tell me…Does almost get me what I want?" She asked rubbing her temples. The guard shook his head. "No it doesn't Empress." She sighed deeply and stood crossing her arms. She decanted the steps leading to her throne and circled the nervous guard. "Do you…think I'm stupid?" She asked raising a well manicured brow. "N-no Empress." She stopped and glared at him again, her olive eyes burning a hole in his forehead. "Well, you must think I am because that was a rhetorical question. You know I could kill you where you stand for such a remark." She snapped. The guard flinched. "I'm sorry for my…" She raised a hand to stop his stammering before walking back to her throne. "I don't want to hear it. Just go and make sure everything is going according to plan and DON'T come back here until it's finished. Off with you! Before I before I change my mind; and have you thrown in prison." She sat on her throne and watched the guard kneel and walked briskly out of the throne room nearly tripping on his way out. Kim crossed her legs once more and stared at the doors.

Shego sat in her usual chair feet propped on the table as she filed her nails. Drakken paced the lair small hands folded behind his back, he looked as thought he was in deep thought. Shego paid him no mind until he finally spoke. "How does she do it? How does she keep beating us Shego?" Shego rolled her eyes and continued to file her nails. "Are you slacking off when you fight her?" Shego stopped immediately and glared at him. "Are you saying I'm letting her win?" The blue scientist turned to her. "Yes. I think you are letting her win when you two fight." Shego dropped her file and stood. Her strides quickly carried her to the blue man. She stood face to face with him, her anger evident in her voice. "Let me tell you two things…one: I do not let her win. She just has that buffoon with rodent to save her ass whenever we fight. Two: I'm not getting close to enough money to put up with your shit. I quit!"
Drakken's face fell as Shego turned on her heel to leave. "You can't quit, you're under contract!" He yelled a smug feeling rising in him. She turned and scoffed. "Yet here I am walking out the door!" She yelled back. Darkken ran after her grabbing her hand to stop her. "Shego wait! If its more money you want I can pay you more." The green skinned woman jerked her hand away. "It's not about the money. It's about losing to a teen age hero every time a plan is put to work! I'm done! I'm done losing, I'm done fighting her, and I'm done with your ranting, whining, sniveling and bad planning. Good bye!" With that she stormed out of the door.

Kim paced around her throne room, her long gown flowing around her feet as she walked. She folded her hands behind her back her eyes shot toward the double doors ever now and again. She finally gave up and sat on her throne propping her head on her hand watching the doors. The guards along the walls stood silent as they watched their Empress pace and watch the doors impatiently all day. Finally the doors opened and a guard in a maroon and black uniform walked briskly into the throne room. He stopped and kneeled before her, waiting for her to allow him to stand. "This had better be good news." She snapped. The guard stood and saluted. "Yes, Empress. I have word from the lab that they are finished." Kim perked up. "Well? What are you waiting for call in my advisers?" The guard jumped and kneeled quickly before running out of the throne room.
Moments later a slim blonde man and an athletic black woman, walked into the room. Both bowed before Kim and stood in silence. "I need you two to go on a mission for me." They nodded in understanding. "I need you two to go back in time find Shego and bring her back to me. Unharmed." She stressed the last word. The black woman spoke first. "Kim, we can't travel through time." Kim raised an eye brow. "Really Monique? Why is that?" She had a dangerous glint in her eye. "We don't have a way of traveling back in time remember? The time machine was destroyed." Monique showed no fear of the red head. Kim smiled and shook her head. "I've already taken care of that." She said pushing off her throne and walking down the steps toward the doors. "I've had Wade taking care of this one. Come I'll show you." She breezed past the two.
They walked down corridors and down flights of stairs and finally stopping in front of a large window over looking a lab full of frantic looking scientists all running around making final touches. A large black man stood in the middle of the frenzy barking inaudible orders at the scientists, he turned toward the window and smiled before walking out of the room.
"Empress. I see you've been told." The man towered over the group. "Yes Wade. They are going to need to leave as quickly as possible for this." Wade nodded and motioned for them to follow. They walked into a large room filled with all sorts of gadgets and weapons. Wade stood behind a table and began placing items on the table. "Okay this is all you're going to need." He said smiling down at them. "This will help you find her." He handed Monique a small device.
"It'll track her power levels. She can be on the other side of the world or two feet from you. Either way you'll know." Monique smiled. "This will disable her powers giving you…some chance." He handed Ron a collar. Ron looked puzzled then glanced at Kim. "And last but not least, this is only for an extreme emergency." He picked up a vial with a light purple liquid. "This is a highly concentrated tranquilizer, just get this into her system and she'll within a few seconds she'll be as dossal as rag doll. But it wears off in about thirty minutes though so you have to hurry, if you use it." Kim jumped in before any one could speak. "Whatever you do, don't harm her. I want her here in one piece." Monique and Ron nodded in agreement, Kim left the room.

Shego pulled up at one of her many houses; she sighed and turned off the car. The air filled with the sounds and smells of the sea. She unlocked the door and pushed it open. Immediately she felt a disturbance around her, something was wrong. She closed the door and began to walk through the large household. She could hear the waves rolling in and out and crashing on the rocks, stealthily she searched each room but found no one. She relaxed a bit and walked into the living room slumping on the couch and rubbing her head in attempt to subside her throbbing temples.
She had just quit, she was free to do what she wanted when she wanted. She could steal anything, go anywhere. Money was no issue for her; she had invested at all the right places, bought and sold stock at all the right times, and even robbed a bank here and there. She could start work on taking over the world, hell she knew it would work. She could do whatever she wanted and no blue oaf, blonde buffoon, or do gooder red head would stop her. Her headache subsided at the thought of being free to do as she pleased. She lay down of the couch to relax a little more slowly lolling into a light sleep.
She awoke hours later suddenly, becoming alert of her surroundings. She quickly opened her eyes and slowly sat up. She looked at the clock on the far side of the room, midnight. She heard the slightest creak down the hall. Someone was in her house; she quickly dropped to the floor moving as quietly as possible along the wall. She looked in each room making sure to listen for any disturbances. Every room was devoid of human life, the only room left was her bed room. She slowly looked into the room and there she saw two shadowy masked figures, one searching the room the other on their way toward the door. She waited for the figure to reach the door way before throwing a punch.
The figure staggered back with a pain filled groan. The other figure turned and met a round house kick to the face, the figure fell to the floor and lay motionless. Shego turned on the other figure; she lifted the small figure into the air. "You have three seconds to tell me what you the fuck you're doing in my house." She growled. The figure muttered something inaudible earning another punch from the green skinned woman. "Don't mumble! What the hell are you doing here? Who sent you?" She shook the figure roughly. "We were sent by the Empress to retrieve you." The figure stated in a feminine voice. Shego gave a bemused look. "The Empress? Empress of what?" The figure's head rolled back slightly groaning in pain again before answering. "The Empress of the world." Shego thought about this for a moment. "Are you talking about 'The Supreme one' or whatever the hell I call myself in the future?"
Shego felt a sudden tug at her neck before she was yanked back and slammed into the bedroom wall. She felt a tightening around her neck; she felt her body become colder. She pushed off the wall and went into a series of kicks and punches with the figure that slammed her into the wall. The figure dodged and blocked every one of her moves in a familiar style, the figure went into offense and the style became even more familiar. She knew that fighting style, she worked her way closer to the figure before she saw her chance, reaching over she ripped off her opponent's mask.
There stood an older version of Ron Stoppable; he looked to be about twenty-four years old. "Shit." Ron said backing away from her. "Plan B Monique." He said to the other figure. "What the…" Before Shego could finish the second figure was behind her stabbing her with a syringe. Shego felt light headed and weak, her legs gave way and she fell to the floor. Ron and the masked figure stood over her, Ron was setting something on his wrist the figure lifted Shego their shoulders.
"She is going to be pissed we used it you know." The figure said to Ron who shrugged. "What is she going to do? Throw us in prison?" The figure scoffed. "If she wanted to she very well could, being Empress and all." Ron stopped fidgeting with the device on his wrist for a moment. "Once she sees what happened to your face she'll know why we had to use it." Shego could barely keep her eyes open the last thing she saw was a bright blue light appearing before her.

Kim walked into a larger room and sat at a large circular table before her ambassadors; they all looked at her nervously waiting for her to speak. She looked around quietly for a long while before she thought of what to say. "You. How is everything in Iceland?" She pointed to a very sweaty twitchy man. "Fine your eminence, the people are very happy." He stammered whipping the sweat from his face. She nodded and turned to a woman closet to her. "You. How is the cold fusion plant coming along in Russia?" The woman sat up right and fixed her suit. "It is going very well Empress. The plant should be up and running in two weeks. The people of Russia will be on cold fusion power in the month." Kim nodded and turned to the rest of the ambassadors.
"Alright then. I trust we aren't having any trouble then." The people looked around at one another. No one said anything, all turned back to Kim. "Really, the world is just absolutely perfect? No one is unhappy? Every thing is great, no crime or anything?" The people looked around nervously. "I find this very hard to believe." She continued. "Someone had better tell me what is really going on before I call someone in to commence killing you all, while I new ambassadors who will tell me every problem with my empire!" She slammed her fist on the table, everyone jumped.
"Empress." A man near the end of the table spoke calmly. "If I may, your empire, at this point, is quite content with your rule. However at any change rest assured we will contact you immediately." Kim was quiet for a moment, then stood abruptly. "Okay then, I want a full report from each of you upon your return home." She said calmly before leaving the room.
Kim stood outside of the room for a moment before turning returning to her throne room. She walked in silence enjoying the quite of the endless corridors and the sound of her heels tapping the marble floors. When she entered the throne room and took her place she sighed rested her head in her hands. "Empress?" She groaned and looked up at a familiar looking brunette. "What is it Bonnie?" She demanded. "Empress we have received word that Ron and Monique have arrived with Shego. Kim sat up suddenly interested in what her servant had to say. "Have them here as soon as possible." She ordered ignoring the girl's bow in response and watched her dash out of the throne room.

Shego opened her eyes slowly to the vision of a dozen scientists running around typing on computers, mixing chemicals, and reading charts. She was slowly getting the feeling back in her body but she still felt cold. "Oh good you're here." A deep voice said before her. She didn't have the strength to look up just yet. "Yeah she put up one hell of a fight." Monique said taking off her mask revealing a broken bloody nose and a blackened blood shot eye.
Shego was quickly finding her strength and becoming much more irritable. "How long has she been on it?" The deep voice asked. Shego looked up and saw a large black man standing before her. "About ten minutes why something wrong Wade?" Ron responded. "Because she is coming around faster then I thought." Just then Shego felt all her energy return and her anger raise, she turned to Ron with an angry glare before punching him in the stomach sending him sailing across the room and smashing into a counter full of beakers. She turned on Monique throwing her into a group of scientists.
She was suddenly over powered; a sea of maroon and black uniforms surrounded her. She threw punches and kicked blindly before she was finally restrained and dragged out of the lab. She was forced up stairs and down long corridors before she reached two giant black doors with silver trim. The guards holding her pushed open the doors and lifted her off the ground walking briskly into the throne room and threw her to the floor then kneeled. Shego was forced to her feet and found herself to looking at version of none other then twenty-six year old Kim Possible, seated upon a large throne. She couldn't believe her eyes.
"I thought said she was to be brought to me unharmed." Kim barked. The guards winced. "She is unharmed Empress." Kim stood and descended the stairs so quickly she looked as though she were floating. She slapped the guard and the sound could be heard throughout the room. "Don't you dare speak to your Empress in such a way!" She barked slapping him again for good measure.
"I saw you, both of you, man handled her! And where the hell are my advisers?" Her olive eyes seemed to grow darker as her anger rose. "What are you two doing still standing here bring them to me now!" The guards kneeled and rushed out of the room. Kim looked around at the guards standing against the walls. "Leave us." She stated. They all hesitated. "All of you get out!" She shouted the guards rushed out of the room closing the doors behind them.
Shego stood stunned never taking her eyes off Kim the whole time. Kim's cold stare turned on her, she suddenly felt much colder all of a sudden. Kim's gaze softened her eyes faded back to their olive green shade. A look of joy and concern replaced her angry expression she stepped slowly toward Shego, her eyes searched her before her lips parted to let out a sigh of relief. She turned and sat back on her throne in time for the doors to open, Ron and Monique were shoved through the doors.
"What the hell happened?" Kim demanded when the two stood before her and gave a low bow. Ron was the first to speak. "We followed your orders. Look she's fine not a scratch on her." He waved his arms frantically around Shego to show his point. "Look what she did to us. Monique's nose is broken and I'm going to be pissing blood for days!" Kim raised a hand to silence him.
"Ron how long have you known Shego?" Ron looked confused. "Since we were young." She rubbed her forehead. "So you should have known her skills in stealth and fighting. You wouldn't be pissing blood and Monique wouldn't have a clearly broken nose if you would have thought about that. You're a smart boy but damn! Just…just go." She rubbed her forehead harder. "Go to the infirmary, we'll talk about this later." Ron and Monique bowed then turned to leave.
Kim waited for the doors to close before she stood and walked to Shego again. She stood before her with a mask of disbelief covering her face. Shego couldn't take the silence any longer. "Princess?" Kim laughed lightly. "Well I go by Empress now." Shego shook her head. "Kimmie is that you?" She would have touched the girl to prove she was real but with her hands tied behind her back she could only look. Kim smiled for the first time in months. "Yes Shego it's me." Shego almost fell back.
"Shit pumpkin, look at you in all your curvaceous glory." Shego couldn't help but drool over every curve of the woman's body, the swell of her chest, her tone stomach, long legs. She was a goddess not Empress of the world. Kim blushed slightly, and cleared her throat. "Yes well, my image is every where. I have to look my best." By now Shego had almost forgotten her line of questioning.
"Where is…" She was cut off by Kim walking behind her and untying her hands. "Where is the future Shego?" Kim began, Shego nodded rubbing her wrists. "She was killed in the take over." Shego's eyes widened. "What! What take over?" Kim looked around. "I'll tell you everything. Just not here, we need privacy." She started to walk out of the throne room with Shego in toe. Kim pushed opened the doors and found a sea of guards, Ron, Monique and Bonnie on the over side. She glared at each of them.
"You two infirmary now." She looked at the guards. "Back to your pasts." She finally turned to Bonnie. "I had better see a set of cloths laid out for me to relax in before I get to my quarters." She leaned in close. "And if I get hint that one person is eavesdropping, heads will roll starting with yours." Bonnie yelped and kneeled before sprinting down the corridor. Everyone dispersed quickly and Kim began walking down the corridor.
(A/N: I just want to say the part were Kim slaps the guard. It's in reference to something that happened in when I was in catholic school…nuns can be pretty bad ass.)
