Chapter 10

As Shego piloted the hovercraft back to the lair, Drakken leaned on her shoulder, and stroked her hair. Neither of them had imagined the night would turn out to be so romantic. As Drakken relaxed on the ride back home, he began to think of his world domination plot again. Suddenly an idea came clearly to his mind.

"Shego, I've got it!", he said suddenly, sitting up straight.

"What?", she asked, surprised.

"I have a plan for the invisibility ray!", said Drakken, "I'll make myself invisible, and sneak into the homes of all the world's top leaders, in order to place them under mind control."

"How will you put them under mind control?", asked Shego, "Didn't Kim Possible take your only two mind-control chips?"

"Remember my brainwashing shampoo I invented 2 years ago? I found an extra box of it as I was organizing the lab the other day, and moved it to the cupboard under my sink. I'll take some with me and pour it into the shampoo bottles in their showers! It's brilliant!"

"WHAT did you just say?" shouted Shego, as she realized she had used the shampoo from under his sink.

Drakken cringed in fear of her anger, "I only said I would brainwash the world's leaders."

"No! I mean about the shampoo! You kept it under your bathroom sink? Where anyone could mistake it for normal shampoo?", shouted Shego. Her hands began to glow.

"B-But no one uses that bathroom except me!", said Drakken, "Shego calm down."

"I used that shampoo!", shouted Shego, as she grabbed Drakken by the collar.

"Oh…", said Drakken, "When?"

"When you made me sing at the karaoke bar last night! And this morning I used it again. No wonder why I was acting so weird this morning…", said Shego.

Drakken felt his heart drop in his chest. This morning is when Shego had told him she had feelings for him. He now realized she had been under the effects of the mind control shampoo then. But if the shampoo's effect only lasts 7 hours, he wondered why she had been so loving at the theater. The shampoo would've worn off long before their date.

"So early this morning was the last time you used the shampoo?", asked Drakken.

"Yes", said Shego. She seemed very upset and somewhat confused. She hesitantly asked, "Am I still under mind control still now? Are all these feelings I've had tonight just a result of your shampoo?"

"The shampoo's effects only last 7 hours. It would've worn off while you were still at Dementor's lair. Here, I'll test it," said Drakken, "Cluck like a chicken, Shego."

Shego sat still, and didn't obey the command.

"See? No mind control", said Drakken, looking into Shego's anger-filled eyes. Her eyes softened, and she let go of her grip on Drakken's collar.

"I remember now. I did seem to come to my senses while I was at Dementor's lair. So that means my feelings for you are real?", asked Shego, "At the theater there was no moodulator, no mind control chip, no brain washing shampoo…"

"Right", said Drakken, "It was just us."

Shego looked into Drakken's caring eyes and reached out to hold him close to her. Her heart skipped a beat, as he kissed her again. As they shared the kiss, she knew her feelings for him actually were real. The shampoo may have made her set up a date with him, but it was true feelings that had brought them together during the date. When she looked again into his dark eyes, she felt happiness and contentment in her heart.

"You know, now that I think about it I'm glad I accidentally used that shampoo. Without it, I never would've set up this date with you," said Shego, "In a way, it was a blessing in disguise."

Drakken smiled in agreement. As the hovercraft flew through the night sky back to the lair, they knew their lives would never be the same. Whatever the future held, they now had eachother, and they would never be lonely again.

The End.
