Enough reviewers asked about Shego's funeral, that I thought I may as well write a little something. It's not the funeral persay, but what occurs after. Hope you enjoy…
Disclaimer: Don't own the characters, and I don't know where the inscription came from that is on Shego's tombstone, but I can't lay claim to it.
Her Last Words
Three figures stood over a lonely grave on this cold and dreary day. One was at the end, opposite the small unassuming tombstone, and the other two on each side.
The redhead that stood opposite the tombstone was shaking her head side to side as she looked at the small piece of slate, and the words etched on it.
"I… just can't believe they did this Ron. I mean… Is this legal?"
"Well KP… she requested this be put on her tombstone in her Will, and the Lawyers said it was all on the up and up. So… I guess it is."
"But most everyone was upset at the funeral Ron. The only person who laughed was MeGo. Everyone else was appalled."
"It was a nice graveside ceremony though, and I was a bit surprised at everyone that attended." Ron breathed out sending a plume of steam from his mouth.
"It was mostly villain's Ron. The only ones there that weren't bad was us and Team Go. And if we hadn't been there, that little tussle between Drakken and Junior could have sparked an all-out war amongst ALL of them!" Kim wrapped her arms around herself a little tighter against the cold, and Ron moved to her side to offer his warmth. The third figure looked at the two teens as they huddled together to stave off the cold.
"I did like HeGo's eulogy." Ron said giving Kim a light squeeze. "It was quite moving. I never knew Shego liked poetry as a child."
Kim gestured at the tombstone once more. "This isn't poetry Ron. It's… it's… ludicrous!"
"You have to admit though… It fits her attitude quite well."
"It's engraved in stone Ron! It will be there for a very, very long time." Kim snuggled herself further into Ron as she shivered once more.
Ron didn't say anything else for a while as he and Kim just stood over the open grave, looking down at the simple casket as it lay in the bottom of the hole. Plumes of steam escaping their mouths as they contemplated the woman who lay within.
"Are you two finished yet?" The gruff voice of the third in attendance said. "The funeral's been over for at least half an hour."
"Almost…" Kim said, and reached into her coat and pulled out a single flower. Ron did the same, though his was of a different color. Both teens dropped their respective flowers on top of the casket, bowed their heads slightly, and then turned and walked away.
The grave-digger looked into the hole to see what they had tossed in, and he saw two roses. One green, and one black.
"What odd colors for roses." He remarked. When the old man turned to pick up his shovel so he could begin filling in the grave, he never noticed a green energy form underneath the flowers before they disappeared into the casket. The first shovel of dirt landed right where the roses would have been.
Before throwing anymore dirt into the hole, the old man looked at the grave-marker one last time, and laughed to himself at the inscription. It read:
Here I lie, six feet under…
Buried beneath the green green grass.
But why am I upside down you say…
So the entire world can Kiss… My… Ass!
The end…
Hope y'all enjoyed this short little addition…
Please note: The inscription on Shego's tombstone is not a creation of mine. I know it's not exact, and I don't remember where I had seen this before. I just thought it was... appropriate for Shego. Do you agree?
