Hello everyone!

Gomen ne, I know it has been long since I updated not only this journal story, but also my other stories. All I can say is that: I had a serious case of writer's block. No...I'm not out of that funk yet, I'm still under its influence but I'm trying to fight it by writing something. If you think that this update should be removed because it doesn't fit or is something that is obviously done in a hurry or is tasteless (hehehe), just send me a message or leave a comment (but please tell me where it goes wrong so I too can see it and learn).

To Mistique my friend, thank you very much. You're always there to see through my work. You're the best!

I appreciate all of you who have been keeping watch, Arigato gozaimas minna-san!

TAMING SHEGO

"Kim, I think you should stop!" Wade said. He was talking through the wrist communicator that Kim was using at the moment.

"I can't Wade!" Kim said panting. The red headed heroine was running towards the place indicated by the blue kimmunicator.

"Yes you can Kim! You can't go into battle without plans! More so without any weapons!"

The heroine frowned but stopped.

"I don't need a weapon Wade. I'm not going to fight Shego!" Kim said before taking in air feeding her hungry lungs.

The Afro-American boy-genius exhaled then shook his head. "I know but think of it Kim, what are you going to do when you get there at Shego's safe house?" Kim didn't answer so Wade looked at her, his expression challenging her to give him an answer, "What now Kim? What are you going to do?"

"I...I'll explain! I'll woe her!" Kim answered, her voice unsure though.

"Okay, you'll explain...do you think she'll hear you out?" Wade smiled when Kim shook her head no, "That's what I think too. Now you'll woe her...with what?" The red head's frown deepened. She then looked at her hands, her right one holding her blue device, her left hand have nothing. So she decided to keep quiet. "See? Jumping without thinking isn't your style Kim. You usually think things over when going to missions. You're not retired that long and you're not that old to say that your skills are rusting."

"But this is different." Kim whispered so low Wade almost didn't hear.

"What differs Kim? You have something important to do...don't tell me getting Shego is less important than having missions?"

Olive colored eyes widened, "Of course not! Shego is important Wade! I could ditch any missions but I can't...I can't..." Kim's vision blurred from unshed tears, "I can't take it if Shego hates me!" Kim finally voiced out and the tears she was trying to contain overflowed.

The young genius looked at Kim with sympathy, "I know what you mean."

Silence

"You should think of what to do to get Shego...to tame her."

The red head took another deep breath and nodded her head. "I'm desperate that I jumped at the opportunity to see Shego."

(Flashback)

Ron and Monique sighed when they saw their friend crying and on her knees. Ron had been Kim's best friend since pre-K, and Monique became close to the red head when they were in middle school. All throughout their time together, they have never seen their friend look like this...defeated, tormented. The two eyed each other, then the blond man smiled before walking slowly towards his friend.

"Hey KP," he said kneeling beside Kim. He then looked back to see Monique nodding at him while the black beauty stepped closer. Monique squatted on the floor on the other side of Kim and she held the heroine's hand.

"Hey girl friend!"

"She hates me!" Kim hiccuped. "Shego...Shego hates me!"

"Sssshhhh," Ron said while stroking Kim's back. "She may hate you, but you're Kim Possible." he said smiling. Monique remained silent but she took the tissue beside her and started wiping Kim's tears.

"Wha...what's that supposed to mean?" Kim asked in between sniffles.

"Simple...anything is possible with a Possible, even taming Shego." Ron said with his own version of a smirk. Monique who saw the blond man's expression winced.

"Wha-"

"It only means that you could make Shego not hate you." Monique said finally. "You are Kim Possible and there's nothing you can't do if you put your heart and mind to it."

Kim lift up her head and looked first at Monique then at Ronald with sad eyes, "Bu..."

"Buuuuttttt..." Ron smirked once again and Monique cringed, "But you don't know where Shego is!" Ron said rather than asked. Kim sniffed once again before nodding her head. "BOOOYAHHH!!!" Ron exclaimed, standing up and taking his own communicator from one of his pockets, "That's where the Ron-man enters!" he said happy.

Monique's brow rose, "Ah...maybe you mean..." she release Kim's hand and made a quote-unquote gesture in the air, "...this is where Wade comes in?"

Ron made a thinking expression then looked at Monique. He shook his head no and said, "No, I said it right. This is where the Ron-man enters." he said with all the confidence he could muster.

"What the heck are you talking about? You're not the one tracing Shego!" Monique said a bit loudly. Her next words were stopped by Ron's right palm in front of her face.

"And who thought of this brilliant plan?" he said making a winning pose.

"Grrrrrrrr..."

"WAIT!!!" Kim screamed which stopped the two from arguing, "What are you two talking about?!" the red head asked in bewilderment.

Monique sighed, "Just as you heard girl friend. The buffoon here contacted Wade to..."

"Hey! No one calls me buffoon anymore!!!" Ron protested and harrumphed afterward.

Kim did not say anything, she remained quiet except for her occasional sniffling and waited for Monique to finish her explanation. "Ron here contacted Wade to trace Shego." Monique ended.

"Trace?"

Ron opened his communicator and contacted Wade once again. The boy-genius's face appeared on the screen and he smiled at the crying Kim. "You explain to her Wade!" The blond said then shoving the blue device towards Kim.

"Hey Kim." Wade greeted then he could be seen typing away on his computer. After a short while, the screen of the communicator changed into a road map where two blinking lights could be seen. "Look Kim, when you were attacked by those women few days ago, I went to your house and applied paint containing tracers on your windowsills." he said smiling, "I intend to leave it for a day or two just to make sure that I have a tab on whoever will attack you. To make the story short, I forgot to remove them and I think it was a blessing in disguise that it was still there when Shego came to you. The green dots is the location of Shego. Since she used her usual ensemble that day, and we all know that she never goes to work without her cat suit, I deduced that Shego must be there at the moment. Either that or she found out about the paint under her boots and left it before flying away..."

Wade didn't finish his explanation. Kim hurriedly stood up and without word sprinted out of her house. The three stunned people thinking of the same thing...

-Kim's going to get hurt-

(End Flashback)

Kim sighed in defeat and slumped on the ground. "So what should I do?"

KSKSKS

Shego was pacing in front of her bed for the last 30 minutes after her arrival. "F**K! How dare SHE!!!F**K!" she stopped and started removing her clean bed sheet, rolling it then dumping it on the floor. She walked to her linen closet and took another clean sheet and two pillow cases. She stepped closer to her bed, angrily taking her pillows and one by one ripping off its cases. She then replaced it with the new ones, when finished she started replacing her bed sheet. "Damn you Kim Possible! You of all people did this to me!!!" Shego ranted once again. "AND FOR THE SAKE OF MONEY?!" she shouted at no one. She looked down and started flattening the tidy looking bed. When satisfied, she walked out of her room. Moments later, she returned with two rugs. One wet and one dry. She went inside her bathroom, filled a small pail with warm water and took it out. She set it aside and took the dry rug and started wiping off dust on her cabinets, tables, and everything her eyes laid on despite her room tidy and clean.

She stopped cleaning to look at the result and frowned, "And how dare she kissed me!!!" she shouted again before taking the wet rug and started cleaning her windows. "SHE F*****G KISS ME!!!"

-yeah and you liked it!-

Shego stopped cleaning once again, "I don't!"

-come one Shego, we both know it...you liked it 'cause if not, you wouldn't kiss me back,-

The green skinned thief closed her eyes, "And now I'm losing my mind! I'm hearing Kim inside my head! F**K-F**K-F**K!" then she returned to her cleaning.

-besides, why are you angry at her? You would probably have done the same thing if that large amount of money is offered to you!

The raven haired woman stopped cleaning and thought of it, "Well...yeah, I would but..."

-but what? You're a thief and a villainess so its alright and Kimmie is the good girl so she's not allowed to do that? Aren't you stereotyping her?-

She frowned, Damn conscience! Why the hell are they making my life miserable?!

-I'm not making your life that way, you are.-

"And you filling my head with all these thoughts and making me look like a fool is what? Making my life easier?" Shego said out loud in response to her inner voice. She waited for a response but the voice wasn't there anymore. "Damn, now that voice left me with all these twisted ideas!!!" She said then looked at her pristine window. She frowned and stopped cleaning. She threw the wet rug inside the pail and carried it back to her bathroom. After cleaning it and washing the rugs, she came back and plopped herself on her well-made bed. Now what should I do? If I knew princess...she'd be making that nerdlinger look for me and soon she'll be at my doorstep! she thought.

-You're the villainess...like you said, it's alright to take the money.-

"Yeah right..." Shego mumbled before closing her eyes, "Yeah right..."

KSKSKS

Kim took a deep breath. It's now or never! she said to herself before expelling all the inhaled air. "It's either Shego will accept my apology and think about the situation or I'm dead!" she said to no one and slowly she went ahead. She closed her eyes as she push the button.

The red head was not expecting Shego to open the gate for her. She was thinking that the thief probably saw the tracer, left her boots and fly away. But most of all...she was not expecting Shego to open the gate in just one ring.

"I have two conditions." Shego said at once not giving the red head any opportunity to speak.

-This is the end of part/chapter/episode 10- hehehehe...

Next: Will Kim agree with what Shego wants? What are Shego's conditions anyway?
