The former hero crouched against the building, her back pressed to the cold stone. Her arms trembled as she pulled herself into a tight ball, tears flowing down, indistinguishable from the rain that drizzled on her in a hard downpour. She shivered, completely soaked to the bone.

Today, at last, she left her brothers for the life of a villain, but it wasn't going as well as she'd hoped.

Completely out of money, she started walking to find a place to stay. Now after walking a whole day, her feet ached and she still didn't have so much as a cardboard box to protect her from the rain.

A black cat nearby watched her, safe from the cover of a dumpster lid, much too small for Shego to crawl in.

Her teeth began to chatter, echoing in her head like a drill. Her soaked hair pressed against her face, tangling behind her.

Useless. She couldn't even make it one day as a villain. Maybe she should go back to her brothers, beg them to let her stay even if she swore to them she'd never come back. It would totally go against her pride but she couldn't even walk one more step.

So lost in her thoughts, she didn't notice the black pair of boots that stopped in front of her. She only started when she heard the rat-tat-tat of rain falling against an umbrella.

Realizing the rain wasn't hitting her anymore, she looked up, staring at a strange blue face. He smiled tenderly at her, holding the umbrella, the rain hitting against him. Kind dark eyes smiled to her, "I bet you need a place to stay," he gently murmured, equally black hair sticking to his wet forehead.

The blue man reached a hand to her, smiling in encouragement.

Shego stared up at him, her mind flickering as she thought of her options, realizing only one would be acceptable.

With a trembling, grateful hand, she reached it into Drakken's.

*le gasp for air* I think (gasp) this is (gasp) the last (BREEAATTHHEE) oneshot of Drakken and Shego, at least for a while. (relaxed sigh)
