"YOU!" Ann choked out make it sound like an accusation. Shego jumped but onto her feet as Ann stood up storming up to Shego who backed into a wall. Normally Shego wouldn't allow anyone to do this to her but she also didn't want to hurt the woman since she was Kimmie's mother.
"I swear I had nothing to do with this." Shego said hurriedly waving her hands in front of her in a warding like gesture. "I was on vacation and when I came back…I can't believe this…" Shego said as tears actually started falling. She never cried in front of someone else like this for so long but she couldn't help it. Kimmie's life was probably going to end up being screwed up now just like her own and it wasn't fair. "I can't believe I trusted him."
"Where is she?" Ann asked softly looking at Shego in a strange way which was making Shego a little angry.
"Don't look at me like that!" Shego snapped, "I'm hiding her at a hotel."
"Why didn't you bring her here?" Ann asked, "If you really aren't behind this then why?"
"Do you think I'd do that to someone after what my dad did to me?" Shego snarled before covering her mouth in shock. Surely she just didn't say that out loud, she couldn't have. Looking up at the confused pitying eyes of the redhead told her that she did say it out loud. "I don't need your damn pity! I don't need anyone but there is no way in hell I'm letting Kimmie go somewhere I can't protect her!"
"Why?" Ann asked taken aback backing away from the raven haired woman. "You always try to kill her."
"Is she dead?" Shego asked simply.
"I…I don't know." Ann asked unable to stop her own tears from starting. "Please take me to her."
"She's not dead Doctor P and if I wanted to kill her I would have done it long ago instead of holding back." Shego said.
"Why would you hold back?" Ann asked pacing while hugging herself. "Why should I trust you instead of calling security?"
"Because if you called security I would knock your ass out and take my leave and you wouldn't know where your daughter was." Shego said coldly, "I hold back because I was training her trying to make her better."
"You're serious, aren't you?" Ann asked as she looked like she just had a revelation. "Why would you do that?"
"Look, this has been interesting but I'm not giving you my damn life story." Shego sighed, "If you want to come with me you can but you have to wear a blindfold and promise not to try and take Kimmie."
"How dare you try and tell me what I can do with my daughter?" Ann snarled.
"I have six very good reasons.." Shego plainly stated as she held up a hand counting, curling a finger up on each number ending on six when she lit up her fist with plasma. "Don't make no mistakes Doctor P, I don't give a damn about you or Pumpkin but I won't let anyone else get hurt like I was if I can help it."
"Good reasons." Ann said shaking slightly, her face paling as she couldn't take her eyes off the plasma charged fist. "I just want to see her, please."
"Okay but grab your medical bag and whatever you think you might need." Shego said walking over to retrieve her fedora. "I cleaned and bandaged her up but you will probably want to check her out for yourself."
Ann must have been crazy trusting this woman but after her baby girl had been missing for what seemed like eternity she would walk through the very fires of hell just to see her Kimmie-Cub alive and okay. Then again was her baby going to be okay, she wasn't sure but after gong through an ordeal like being raped by her arch-nemesis it was going to be hard for the younger Possible.
Right now she was blindfolded sitting in a seat on a small jet heading who knew where with said arch-nemesis's sidekick. It was possible that this was some kind of trap, that had ran through her mind time and time again but she had to get to Kimmie. She didn't think it was a trap though, the pain in Shego's eyes was all too real when she said something about her own father. Did her father rape her? And if so how could he do something like that? It was no wonder Shego held so much animosity toward the world and from what little Ann knew of her was so cynical.
"Shego, if you need someone to talk to I'll listen." Ann said softly unsure how the woman would take the offer. It seemed like forever with no response so Ann tried again. "Shego?"
"No offense Doctor P but like I said before I don't need anyone." Shego said but Ann caught the catch in her voice. Ann was beginning to understand why the woman was going through such lengths to help Kimmie. What ever happened to Shego was coming back to haunt the woman with what happened to Kimmie and now Shego was trying to compensate with Kimmie. She seemed to be trying to be helpful now since she must have felt so helpless with whatever happened to her. It did make sense but she wasn't sure what to do about it, she really couldn't trust the woman a whole lot but she did want to help her if she could.
"Can you tell me what happened?" Ann asked, swallowing nervously.
"I came back from vacation and caught two of the lackey's watching a security camera. Drakken was…He was hurting her and I went off. I…I hurt him badly. I almost wish I killed him!" Shego said. Ann actually could hear Shego sniffing as the plane started to descend. "I'll explain it later, we're here."
Ann quietly let Shego lead her into down an incline, obviously the jet's ramp and across a flat surface until a door creaked open. Shego pulled Ann inside it and she heard in close back. Shego pulled off the blindfold and Ann had to let her eyes adjust until she realized they were in a dimly lit fire escape.
"Come on, we are on the third floor. Keep quiet until we get there." Shego said, Ann noticing that on the landing below them had the number nine on it. The two women walked quietly down the stairs until the reached the third floor landing. Opening the door the stepped into a hallway with plain beige wallpapered walls, the paper peeling off in places. The red indoor outdoor carpeting was fading pretty badly and the entire place seemed weird. How could a nine floor hotel building let itself fall under such disrepair?
Shego walked down the hallway to a door that was painted a pinkish color, the paint peeling badly. The plate on the door said 330 and there was a 'Do Not Disturb' sign on the door. She pulled a key out of the coat she was wearing ad unlocked the door pushing it open and letting Ann inside.
Cautiously Ann made her way inside, turning on the lights as she entered through the door way since the shades were closed blocking off any view from outside and keeping Ann from recognizing where they could be. Looking over to the bed there was a shape under the blankets which Ann's eyes swept over until reaching a mop of red hair sprayed out along the whit pillow.
"Kimmie!" Ann sobbed rushing to her unconscious daughter.
