Part Two: At the Go's

As Kim rode toward Go City with Carol, old instincts started screaming that this was a bad idea. What are you doing, Kim?! The superspy asked herself. You're going to a party with your archenemies! Kim shifted deeper into the passenger seat as these thoughts swarmed in Kim's mind. Carol noticed and sighed in sadness. "Look. Kimmie, everything I do for Drakken is just a paycheck. Business is business, and I keep my personal life separate from it." Kim looked at the green-skinned beauty to look for tells to see if the freelance thief was lying. When she found none, Kim was a little surprised. In addition to that, Kim noticed she was staring and quickly looked away. "Do you like what you see, Pumpkin?" Carol asked with a smirk.

Kim desperately tried to change the subject. "Why do you work for an idiot like Drakken?" Carol flinched as if the question was attached to a sharp sword. Kim jerked away slightly frightened by the reaction. "If you don't want to answer-" Carol held up a hand. "No, Kimmie. You need to know this, so you'll be prepared for the madhouse that is Go Family Gatherings." Kim was surprised by Carol's openness with her. Then again, they had fought for years and gotten to know each other in an odd way. Does she really trust me that much? Kim thought to herself. "It started a few months after we formed 'Team' Go," Carol began. "In the beginning, we were a great team, stopping thugs and super villains alike easily." The green women's face grew into a scowl as she spoke. "Then, the media attention began to change my brothers. It was little things at first, but as habits do, it grew into a monster." Carol looked at Kim and reigned in her anger. "I was already thinking of jumping ship because my brothers began to fight for their scrap of attention from the vultures of media." Carol gripped the steering wheel hard, and Kim had an idea of what was coming. "They found out. Didn't they?" The heroine asked with a concerned look. "Hego outed me and my girlfriend at the time in a bid to get more attention." Carol shivered in rage, sadness, or maybe a mix of the two emotions. "She left me over the debacle. That was the final straw. I left the 'team' and started working for Drakken. That way I could get back at Hego's bloated sense of justice without having to worry about any true threat." Carol looked at Kim. "Who knew I would get to fight with a beautiful and skillful redhead out of the deal?" Carol said as she grinned at Kim.

Kim blushed at all the praise from Shego without a few bruises. She wasn't used to it. Carol smirked. "You might want to start getting used to this, Kimmie." Kim's eyes widened as Carol leaned over and gently kissed Kim. "I'm not going anywhere if I can help it." Kim looked up at Carol and felt a shy smile grace her face. "She-" Carol chuckled. "I'm off the clock, Sweetness. It's Carol." Kim raised an eyebrow. "Mom REALLY likes Christmas." The green woman explained. Kim nodded. "This should be interesting." Kim mused aloud. Carol suddenly snapped her fingers. "Damn, I forgot to change for the party." Kim smiled and activated the Battlesuit's stealth function. When she appeared to vanish, Carol rolled her eyes. "Very sly, Kimmie, but you don't get any sneak previews." Kim didn't respond and simply smiled. "I'll just change at the house." The green Aphrodite decided. Kim deactivated the stealth and crossed her arms. "Spoilsport…" Carol only laughed at Kim's reaction.

What Carol called a "house" was actually a gargantuan mansion. Kim simply stared at the dwelling in shock. "My ancestors founded this city, Kimmie." Kim finally found her voice after trying to take in the massive complex. "Holy shit, that's huge!" Carol shook her head with a smile at Kim's outburst and thought, Just wait until we share a bed, Pumpkin. I'll see how far your vulgar vocabulary goes. Shego thought as they entered the mansion. Kim was struck speechless by the beauty. In the parlor, Kim noticed a woman talking to a man. The woman looked like Shego, but she had a natural tone to her skin and blonde hair. Kim looked around and noticed Carol was nowhere to be seen. She must have went to change. Kim reasoned. Kim slowly approached the man and woman. The man turned and saw Kim first. "Ah…Kim Possible…" When Kim gave the man a confused look, he smiled, "I'm sorry, miss. I'm the mayor of this fine city, Alexander E. Baskin." He chuckled. "I didn't get to thank you for stopping Aviarious." Kim smiled and waved the man off. "It was no big." He seemed surprised by her reaction and quickly nodded before walking away.

Mrs. Go smiled at Kim. She then looked around in confusion. "Where's Victor?" She asked. Kim bristled at the name for some reason. Hego… Kim groaned in aggravation. "Actually, ma'am, I didn't come here as Hego's date." The older woman smiled kindly. "My mistake, ever since Victor met you, he won't stop talking about you." That's unsettling. Kim thought. "May I ask who…" The woman stopped as she followed Kim's gaze up the banister and smiled as the line of sight terminated at her daughter. Kim's jaw dropped at the sight of Carol. The woman was in a formal tuxedo with a green bow tie and Jacket, black slacks and a white shirt. When Carol noticed Kim's dazed expression, the woman smiled and backflipped off the stairs and landed perfectly on her feet. Carol turned and looked at Kim's gobsmacked face. "You'll catch flies like that, Pumpkin." Carol said with a smile. "May I have this dance?" She asked as "All I Want for Christmas" played in the the background. Kim shook herself from the daze and took Shego's hand. "Absolutely…"

As Kim and Carol danced, Victor looked at the pair, anger seeping into his mind as he watched them. I'm the strong hero, Victor thought. How could Kim reject me for my villainous sister?! Victor got up and marched over to the contented couple. Kim groaned when she saw Victor coming and gently pushed her way out of Carol's arms. "Don't move." Kim ordered with a smile at Carol. "Victor, why-" Kim's question was cut short as Victor punched her. Kim was sent flying into a pillar as the entire party froze. Carol glared at Victor as Kim pushed out of the hole she left in the column and landed on her feet. "VICTOR!" Carol growled as her entire body became covered in plasma. Everyone gasped at the rage from the thief. Before she could lift off and beat her brother to a smoking cinder, Kim got in Victor's face. "If you want a girl, you can't punch or kick her into a pillar or radio tower." Kim flinched at the quick memory. "That's a good way to piss her off!" Kim's eyes burned dangerously with anger. "My battlesiut overstimulated my emotions in that sitch. What's your excuse?!" Victor shivered under Kim's gaze. "I…" He trailed off. "You love me? Try again. When you love a person, you don't want to harm them." She growled. "You saw a nice trophy to adorn yourself with. Now, if you'll excuse us, Carol and I have a dace to finish."

In spite of that disruption, the party turned into one of the best Kim ever experienced. Now three years, eleven months, and twenty days later; Kim was excited. She had another gift for her girlfriend for Carol's birthday, but this one was extremely special. After cake, ice cream, and most of the gifts had been given; Kim smiled and produced a green and black velvet ring box. Carol smiled with tears in her eyes as Kim opened the box to reveal a gold ring with a green diamond in its setting. "Carol Elizabeth Go, will you marry me?" Shego smiled, "Kimmie, I…"
