Chapter eighteen: My hero has gone

Shego sat in her cell quietly. It had been three months since she was captured; all because of a lucky blow to the head that blonde buffoon had landed while she waited for Kim. She had heard nothing of Kim since that night and had come to the conclusion that she was on her own. She thought back to what she had said to Kim the day she agreed to help her:

'If anything goes wrong then I'm not going to be there to save you, you got that?'

Shego wanted to slap herself for getting caught, it was an embarrassment. The guards made a point to taunt her like she was a caged animal, often stopping to smile at her with pride as if they had made the capture themselves.

She heard footsteps coming down the corridor and the familiar clack against the metal bars. The guards like to make themselves known by doing this. When the guard stopped at her cell he nodded to her he was the only guard who didn't taunt her.

"Are you going to be good or am I going to have to get back up?" He asked resting his hand on the radio hanging from his belt.

"If you're not an ass to me then I won't be a bitch to you." Shego said getting up from her bed.

"Sounds fair." He replied as he opened. Shego stepped out and allowed him to attach the special restraints that had been made to withhold her plasma.

"So why am I being graced with your presents this fine day?" Shego asked sarcastically.

"You're scheduled for transport today."

"Aw I won't see you fine gentlemen anymore? What a shame."

The guard did not respond. He led her outside into the desert heat where a truck waited. A thin man stood reading over a clipboard.

"It's only her today." The guard said allowing Shego to walk freely toward the man. The man looked her over and smirked.

"You need an armored truck for this woman?"

Shego held back a twinge of anger at his insult. The guard nodded. "Don't let her looks fool you; she's the most dangerous person I've ever had to deal with. Plasma powers and unbelievable strength. Don't insult her."

The man looked her over again and shrugged. "Whatever just load her up and sign this."

The guard signed the form and helped Shego into the back of the truck. He gave her a final nod and smiled at her. She gave him her classic smirk and watched the doors close. Moments later she felt the truck jerk and they were off. It wasn't long before she felt the truck coming to a halt. The doors opened and bright sunlight poured through the inside of the truck. Shego was blinded by the sudden change in lighting and shielded her eyes. Someone climbed in and stood before her. Shego looked up and couldn't believe her eyes. There stood the fiery red head, wearing the driver's uniform. Kim leaned forward so they were eye to eye.

"Did you stay out of trouble while I was gone?" Kim asked with a wide smile.

"Yes, and it wasn't easy. What took you so long?" Shego asked containing her excitement for freedom.

"Well I had some things to take care of before I could get you out."

Kim unlocked that restraints and lead Shego out of the truck. Shego looked at her hands testing her plasma before she noticed she was still in her prison uniform. She glanced at Kim with a disgusted stare.

"I bought you something. Here." Kim tossed her a set of clothes.

"So did you get what you were looking for?" Shego asked while attempting to change in the hot sun.

"Yes."

"So I guess this is where we part ways?"

"Yes. But you'll see me sooner or later."

"What do you mean?"

"I just busted you out of prison. You owe me."

Before Shego could respond Kim gave her a quick embrace and turned to leave. "Where are you going?" Shego called back to her.

Kim turned around, walking backwards she shouted back. "I have no clue, and it feels so great to say that!"
