Kim Possible: Where No Man Has Gone…..

By LJ58

6

Two weeks since her release from the hospital, and Kim was still at home, forced to take it easy on doctor's orders. Orders enforced by her mother even if Shego was hanging around Kim's house now to ensure she did not try to overdo it.

Kim's mother had said she could listen to Shego, or she could move home until Ann was convinced Kim was healthy enough to be released completely.

"You'd think they would realize I'm an adult now," Kim muttered as she sat there, waiting on Shego to make breakfast well into the second week of her house arrest as she deemed it.

"We still need to talk about this thing," Shego told her as she brought plates of food to the table, and set one before Kim.

What thing," Kim frowned.

"You know what the mirror image of yours said. "You have children. You have a legacy," Shego told her. "That doesn't say much for our chances, and you have to accept that," the green-skinned woman told her as she sat down with Kim, but only stared at her food.

Kim scowled, and set her coffee mug down, but didn't start eating.

She reached out, took Shego's clenched hand in her own, and smiled at her.

"Look at me. Look. At. Me. We don't know what is coming. Kids. The future. None of it. We don't know how that will go. Maybe that woman was right in not telling us anything because it might have changed things. This, however, doesn't change us. We came a long way before you and I finally realized we had more in common than trading kicks and punches," Kim told her as Shego just stared at her in silence.

"Still…."

"Still, nothing," Kim cut her off. "What we have is real, Shego. Will it last? Who knows, but I want to find out. I like the woman I've gotten to know, and I like the life we were starting to build, and I would really like you to stand with me when we face whatever comes next. So, how about we keep moving ahead, trusting that whatever happens works out, and we will be together whatever comes."

"You're not thinking about….where your kids come from?"

"I figure things will work out. Like they always do," Kim smiled as she squeezed her hand. "Okay, considering I was looking at my mirror image, I obviously didn't adopt. Only who knows what happened considering all the weird science out there, and still being developed. Because, Shego, I want you in my life. I am seriously considering asking you to marry me, that's how much I do care. So, are you going to let a bunch of maybes ruin our chance at happiness," Kim all but challenged her.

"You just always have to…. Gah! You are such a ridiculously optimistic Pollyanna," Shego complained, and then smiled at her, and put her free hand over hers. "And just now, I'm glad. I don't want to leave you, Kimberly, and I would like to see if something is really here, too."

"Just know, if Drakken gets out again, I get to punch him first," Kim declared smugly as she only then reached for her fork.

"No promises," Shego said with an ominous look as her green eyes glittered for a moment. "When I think of all the ways that moron could have hurt you…."

"Or you," Kim said quietly and cut her sausage in half, and half again before stabbing a piece into her eggs as she started eating.

Shego only smirked at that.

"Let's just agree that Drewbie has a very short life expectancy if he ever gets out again, and tries anything. Anything at all," Shego declared with authority.

"I won't argue with that," Kim smiled at her. Looking down at her eggs again, she suddenly paled, her body tensing, and she abruptly bolted from the table and fled to the bathroom.

"Kimmie," Shego called after her.

There was no reply.

There was very audible retching as Kim had left the bathroom door open.

Shego frowned and followed her down the hall into the bathroom to see her kneeling before the toilet.

"Princess, what's wrong? Are you still….?"

"D' know," she moaned, sinking back on her haunches before the toilet, looking miserable. "I just suddenly…. Well, I think…. I just felt….nauseous," she moaned, and finally reached out to flush.

"Maybe we better take you back to the doctor. This could be part of that genetic scrambling the boys mentioned finally…."

"I'm fine now. Seriously. I just…."

Kim shook her head and got to her feet.

"Kim….?"

"Shego, I'm fine. I just got nauseous a bit, and now I'm fine. Besides, Dr. Director is due over by noon for that debriefing, and I think we really need to give some warning, so we aren't caught flatfooted again if those big green loons do show up again."

"Fine. But if you get sick again…."

"I'll have Wade scan me again."

"He's still studying the last scans," Shego sputtered.

"And if there is anything to worry about, he'll call. I trust him."

Shego glowered at her.

"You get sick again, and you're going back to the hospital. You heard the boys. You don't know what that phasing deal did to you. You're not me. You can't just absorb cosmic radiation, and laugh it off."

"I still say…."

They both turned toward the front as they left the bathroom after Kim rinsed her mouth. Someone knocked again, and it was pretty insistent.

"Who now," Kim asked. "It's still too early for Dr. Director."

Heading for the door, she unlocked and opened the panel as Shego stood behind her. Standing in the door was Ann Possible, looking about as grim as she could.

"Mom, what's up?"

"Wade just called me," she said somberly.

"Wade? Called you," Kim asked. "Why?"

"He just finished analyzing your last scan, Kimberly," her mother told her as she walked in, and hugged her.

"Okay, and why didn't he call me," the younger redhead asked, looking confused as her mother just hugged her, looking concerned.

"Because he knew you'd ignore him," Shego guessed.

"Something like that," Ann nodded at her. "Kim, you need to come back to the hospital now. We need to give you some specialized tests."

"What? What is going on now," she demanded as Ann finally let her go.

"Wade found….something. It looks like a small mass is growing in your lower abdomen. Something….he can't decipher since he's not really a doctor. He suggested we get you in for a complete workup before whatever it is hurts you."

"She was just sick this morning," Shego told Ann, looking uneasy herself now.

"Kim, you need to come in now. I'm here to take you."

"And you're going," Shego demanded. "No more arguments."

"I'm fine. I just got a little nauseous. Nothing else."

"Let's make sure," Ann said, eyeing her daughter. "Because Wade was certain that mass wasn't there when he first scanned you. Now it is, and it's growing. Let's make sure it isn't….trouble."

"I have to talk to Dr. Director…."

"She can wait. You're going to the doctor. You already have an appointment. Let's go," Ann said sternly as she stood before her daughter as if more than ready to reach out and just drag her with her.

"Mom, I'm sure…."

"We'll meet you there," Shego said, and took Kim, dragged her to the dining room of the house they shared, and declared, "Right after she finishes eat…."

Kim stared at the eggs on her plate as Shego led her to the table, and suddenly covered her mouth, and ran for the bathroom again.

"You are going to the hospital," Ann shouted as the sounds of vomiting reached her and Shego an instant later.

~KP~

"You're kidding," Kim and Shego both said as they sat there with Ann standing behind them as the doctor just held out a small chart to Ann.

The balding man only smiled and shook his head.

"You're not kidding," they both said as one again as Ann flipped through the chart.

"This is confirmed, Stephen?"

"We were astonished ourselves, Ann," Dr. Stephen Parker nodded. "We repeated a few of the tests just to be sure. It seems that Kimberly is suffering a very ordinary case of morning sickness…. Being several weeks pregnant."

"How few?"

"Based on the fetus, I'd say at least six."

"But… But…. That's impossible," Kim sputtered.

"Says the girl that claims anything is possible," Shego couldn't help but tease.

"But… Not this," Kim exclaimed.

"Is the child normal," Ann asked, handing the chart back to the other doctor.

"So far as we can tell at this stage, it is developing quite normally. Considering it appears approximately six weeks old when we all know there was no trace of any pregnancy just over two weeks ago. Frankly, we are all mystified," Stephen admitted. "Still, the facts are obvious. Kimberly, you are pregnant."

Kim's reaction was just to sit and stare at him.

"So, could that dimensional phasing have caused this," Shego asked the two physicians.

Kim just stared.

"I couldn't begin to see how," Dr. Parker admitted, "But then, I'm not a physicist."

"I'm…having a baby," Kim finally sputtered.

"Yes," the older doctor smiled and nodded at her.

Kim fell back in her chair, completely out cold.

"Wow. I can't believe she passed out like that," Shego grinned, staring into Kim's pale face.

"It is a lot to take in," Ann said quietly. "Still, I think we need to keep this quiet. For Kim's sake, if nothing else. We have no way of knowing how this happened, or what the consequences may be for her, or her child."

"Then there are all the loons that might still come calling if they hear she's sidelined like this," Shego nodded. "Don't worry, Ann. I'll be with her 24/7 as of now. No one will get near her."

"And I suggest we arrange regular checkups as well, just to ensure your atypical experience out there did not affect….the child."

"With her luck, it's going to be a carbon-copy of the little nut," Shego suddenly grinned. "Which would be kind of funny," she said and eyed Ann. "So, how do we handle this, Ann. Because I doubt we want to admit what apparently happened here. We'd have loons from both sides of the fence coming after her."

"Yes," she frowned. "We'll keep this quiet as long as possible. Stephen, I'm going to ask you to stay completely silent, too, until we can manage this news. My daughter's….state will not become fodder for headlines, or researchers of any stripe. I think this one better stay strictly NTK, but no one needs to know."

"Of course. My only concern is keeping her and the child safe as they develop. So far as anyone outside this room knows, it will be an ordinary child."

"Which means we can't let the harpy know," Shego said as she turned to Ann only after the doctor left after giving them a prescription for certain vitamins he suggested Kim might be needing soon.

"I think that would be for the best. Even Ronald is getting occasionally uneasy over how that woman does things."

"Wow, so Stoppable really is getting smarter. Who knew," Shego grinned.

Ann gave her a chiding expression, but then they both looked back to Kim who was moving restlessly, and suddenly sat upright, looking around.

"Mom! Shego! Wow, I…. I had a weird dream. Is the doctor back yet, or….?"

"No dream, mommy," Shego grinned as she eyed Kim. "Looks like the future we saw is already coming to pass because you definitely have a bun in the oven there."

"But…."

"Isn't it you who likes to say anything is possible," Shego teased.

"Although this is stretching it even for you, dear," Ann smiled at her. "We'd better talk to Wade again, too. If only to make sure that he keeps this information quiet."

"Information….? But how will I keep a pregnancy quiet," Kim frowned. "It's going to be obvious very soon."

"Not the baby, genius. How it apparently happened. Or don't you realize how many loons would love to get their hands on Kim Possible's child? Especially knowing how it was….conceived," Shego pointed out.

Kim stared at her, looked down at her own still slender belly, and then eyed Shego again.

"We're having a baby," she whispered as if in awe. Then flung herself at Shego, and shouted, "We're having a baby," hugging her so fiercely that Shego was completely stunned for a moment.

"Calm down," Shego hissed, but her eyes misted as Ann only smiled at them now."

"See? We do have a future, and we have children," Kim murmured as she held onto the comet-powered woman who only then slid her own arms around the petite adventurer. "Problem solved."

"Not quite. You're pregnant, and even if no one spills the truth, a lot of people will be after your child, Kimmie. We need to consider upgrading our own house security, and…."

"Call the tweebs. No one is getting near this baby," Kim said as she stood up now, and looked more determined than ever. "She has a destiny," she said with gleaming eyes.

"Is that right," Ann asked as Shego just shook her head.

"Yes! She's going to be a hero!"

Shego groaned.

"After which you evaded the Lorwardian fleet, doubled back and managed to destroy two more of the heavy cruisers before they could elude you," Admiral Trogan asked following the debriefing with the young Captain Possible.

"Yes, sir," Kimberly nodded. "For whatever reason, the fleet seemed to be focused on the unlikely vehicle Miss Possible was flying, and one of them even vanished into the wormhole after her. Considering the backlash from the closing aperture we detected, it was likely destroyed during the attempt."

The bald admiral eyed his counterparts, and asked, "You don't think that the apparent Miss Possible was slain as well?"

"Considering I am still here, I rather doubt it."

"Attached to that query," Admiral Carson asked her, "Did you allow them to know anything of our history or technology that might unduly influence past events?"

"They remained isolated except for using an auxiliary lab that had nothing in it that would give anything away, sir," Kimberly assured them. "In fact, everything they conjured while in that lab was actually better than anything else they could have seen. Frankly, it would seem my ancestor was far cleverer than even the old family histories suggested."

"So you say. Our people in R&D will be surveying the blueprints of the devices she left behind. Need I say this is all classified, and you and your crew will say nothing of this temporal encroachment? Especially how it occurred," Admiral Trogan told the young captain.

Kimberly didn't remark on how Commander Quill had sent the schematics for Kim Possible's unlikely AI to his uncle Soong. She was still doubtful anyone would make much of it, though. Even she had already noted that most of their tech seemed incompatible with the unlikely organic technology that Kim Possible had been using. How she had even managed it back in such an allegedly technologically primitive time in their history was beyond her.

"I've already advised my crew to maintain silence on the entire matter, guessing it would not be something we want to be known. Especially to our enemies," Captain Possible assured the men from Star Fleet.

"Good. I have to say, you commended yourself well, Captain Possible, and I expect you will continue to do so. Once we reach Star Base IX we'll be leaving you to continue with your own mission. Let's hope everything is settled down, and nothing will come of this….intrusion."

"Yes, sir," she nodded at the two admirals who had come to personally investigate the time-skipping Kim Possible and her potential fate.

An hour later, she watched the Admirals depart in their shuttle as the USS Guardian flew past the Star Base without stopping. They had not been damaged in spite of the short battle, and they were still well provisioned and had no cause to pause in their mission.

Besides, Kimberly didn't want anyone seeing what she was doing just then as she watched the shuttle depart before she turned to Commander L'rka and asked, "What is Ensign Ulan's status on upgrading our torpedoes?"

"He has converted nine of our photon torpedoes to date, captain," the feline told her. "However, I am still confused at why we would bother using dated technology to alter our weapons. Surely…."

"Then you didn't pay attention, L'rka. Those fusion mines those women launched devastated a Lorwardian cruiser just by exploding near their bridge. If we can adapt them to torpedoes, we could do a lot more than that if they do work. Once we have a full complement, I want to test a few of them, and have them ready if we do encounter Lorwardians again," a telltale gleam in her green eyes as Mr. Reko groaned, knowing the captain all too well.

"Yet you did not tell the admirals of this…."

"I prefer to have hard evidence of their effectiveness before I suggest adding them to Star Fleet's arsenal, commander," Kim said slyly. "If they work out, great. If not, well, nothing lost, is there?"

Every member of the bridge crew just shared matching expressions as Kimberly eyed the navigator, and declared, "Set a course for Yalerica III, Mr. Reko. We still have a patrol to complete. With luck, we can soon test our new weapons," the young captain smiled.

No one commented.

~KP~

"Twins," Kim Possible sputtered as the family gathered around her with the doctor for the ultrasound.

"We definitely have two little babies sharing space here," the doctor smiled as he indicated the screen.

"Twins," Kim said again as James and Ann eyed one another.

"Boys," the Possible twins asked eagerly.

"Only one. Looks like they are going to be fraternal," the doctor told the family.

"Oy," Shego sniggered as she eyed Kim, who had recently admitted she knew Gemini and Betty were fraternal twins on opposite sides. Something even Shego had not known until then.

"My babies will both be heroes," she snapped at Shego, reading her with ease.

"Of course they will," James declared.

"Well, you're going to need another crib for the nursery," Ann told them.

"And more clothes," Shego sighed, recalling their last shopping expedition after their recent marriage that had Kim driving her nuts before it was over.

"And diapers," the twins grinned adding to their father's declarations.

"Twin Kimmies," Shego grinned. "Imagine the chaos they will bring," she laughed at Kim to lighten the mood.

"Hey! I do not bring chaos!"

"Complete chaos," Shego nodded. "The bad guys will be giving up just hearing you're coming."

"Shego!"

"Meanwhile, with the security upgrades we did for you, no one will be getting near your place unless you let them," Jim and Tim told their sister.

"So all you have to do is sit back, and relax, and let nature take its course," James assured her as he smiled at her.

Kim sighed, looked back at the small screen, and echoed, "Twins. I can't wait," she said as she eyed Shego.

"Well, while we do welcome you, Shego," Ann told her. "I think it best if we keep the children's parentage a family secret. No one else can know how Kim conceived. As was mentioned at the start, we'd have a lot of the wrong attention if people starting thinking they could somehow exploit these babies. Or Kim."

"I know, Ann," Shego said. "I agree, too. Kimmie and I both agreed no one else will ever hear how she got knocked up. We're going to be using 'No comment' a lot in the future," she grinned. "Should drive some folks completely nuts. You know, the ones not already nuts," she grinned, eyeing James.

"Well, I'm not quite sure what you mean by that," James declared cluelessly. "Still, I'm sure we can manage so long as we all stand together. After all, anything is possible…."

"I know. I know," Shego moaned, making Kim giggle as the doctor finished up, and handed her a small printout of the ultrasound. "I got it the first million times I heard it. Still, can you imagine explaining to the kids how they were born when they are old enough? Especially if they ask about their daddy. Then again, they may be as nuts as Kim, and think that's normal."

"Oh, now you're exaggerating," Kim sniggered at her as the doctor left her to dress.

Which had Ann gesturing for James and the boys to leave.

Once out, Kim dropped the sheet and reached for her clothes.

"I'm just glad they're okay, and everything is fine."

"Oh, I don't know. Better make sure those gremlins of yours don't spill anything," Shego told Ann. "We both know how they are. The last thing we need is for anyone to learn Kimmie is having the first virgin birth in two thousand years. Imagine the lunacy she would inspire."

"Hey!"

"Not that she doesn't already."

"Shego! I am not loony."

"Complete and utter. Don't forget, Kimmie, I know your secrets. I read your diary when the boys posted it online."

Kim groaned as she leaned over to tie her boots.

"Maybe we should keep them from any computers for a while," Ann said in response.

"Or we let them test the Roth's ability to stay in space," Shego asked.

"Hmmm."

"Kimberly, you are not sending your brothers into space."

Shego and Kim both grinned at that.

"Besides, imagine the damage they might do out there."

"There is that," Shego nodded.

"Let's just go home," Kim said standing up now, fully dressed again. "I'm feeling hungry again."

"C'mon, Kimmie," Shego slid an arm around her. "Let's go out and celebrate our coming family."

"I can't wait," Kim smiled wistfully. "I'll teach them jujitsu first… No, crane style. Then…."

"How about you let them grow up a little," Ann suggested with a smile.

Shego only laughed.

"Let the lunacy begin," she grinned and led her new wife out of the examination room.

Never the End….
