Shego drove through the quiet streets of Middleton, the home of Lucy’s new secret lair and thanked that most people were at work or school so she wouldn’t be noticed.
Meanwhile on the back seat Amy began to stir, unnoticed by Shego who’s attention was on finding a decent song on the loud radio. Her head ached from whatever the oddly pale woman had done to her and she had to stifle a moan as her wrists chaffed against the rope that bound them together.
Most people in her situation would have panicked and screamed and thrashed about for help, and although that was her first idea upon waking up in the strange car, she was a DEB. She had been trained for the situation and silently checked everything was in working order and nothing hurt too much to escape. The only damage seemed to be the headache she had, everything else was fine. She formed a plan and waited the ten minutes it took for her to have a shot.
Shego cursed as the lights turned red and she had to stop while two nattering old women crossed the road as though there wasn’t a car waiting to pass. Amy took her chance. She pushed the door handle down and pushed her feet off of the other door to propel herself forward and out of the car. She landed with a thud that was thankfully drowned out but the loud rock music Shego had playing. She quickly and quietly closed the car door and crept over the road and in to an alleyway.
Once Shego had driven off she allowed herself a sigh of relief and started work on the rope on her wrists. After straightening her skirt out and checking for danger she left her hiding place and headed for the nearest building. She had no idea where she was, but she recognised the building as a school and headed over to it. She dived behind a bush as she saw Lucy’s car speed past her and only emerged when she heard Kim Possible’s voice. “Why would Lucy Diamond want to kidnap me?”
Kim stopped talking as she realised Ron was paying not attention and looked close to drooling as he stared behind her. She turned around and found Amy Bradshaw standing behind her. “Lucy tried to kidnap you?” She asked, a slight look of hurt on her face.
“Yeah. I have no idea why.”
“I think I do.” Amy bit her lower lip, a nervous habit, and took a seat at the bench the two teens had ended up sitting at. “Some woman tried to kidnap me today and brought me here. I only just escaped. I think maybe Lucy had to take you as ransom…to get me back.” Kim and Ron looked stumped by the blonde’s explanation.
“Why KP?” Ron asked before Kim had a chance.
“This woman, what did she look like?” The teen hero quizzed.
“She was pale and wearing this black and green body suit thing…she was also kinda green.”
“Shego!” Kim and Ron growled in unison.
When Shego’s car entered the garage of the secret lair Lucy was waiting. “She recognised me.” She stated simply as Shego got out of the car. “I almost had her but this blonde kid hit me from behind.”
“Ugh, the Buffoon.” Shego hissed. “I got your girl. But you still need to get me mine, that was the deal.” A faint smile touched Lucy’s lips as she realised she had Amy.
“Of course. Just as soon as I get Amy settled.” She opened the rear door of the car and scowled. “Did you put her in the boot?” Shego shook her head and pushed her aside to look down in to the car. She growled as she saw the empty back seat. Lucy sighed and crossed her arms.
“Looks like we need a new plan.”
“I can help!” Dr Drakken sprung up beside them grinning happily.
Both women snapped at him. “No!”
When Lucy’s cell phone started ringing she pulled it out of her jeans and almost shrieked when she saw the caller I.D. “Amy?”
“Lucy, I know about what happened.” Amy explained.
“You do?” The diamond thief was confused by how she had found out about their plan.
“Yeah, and it’s ok. You don’t need to give Kim to that weird woman. I got away and I’m safe now.” Lucy began to put the bits together in her mind and realised the conclusion the DEB had come to.
“Thank God. I was so worried. Can I see you? I need to know Shego, er…the woman, didn’t hurt you-”
“She didn’t.” Amy interrupted. “I’m fine. I’m just calling so you won’t go after Kim again. Goodbye Lucy.”
Lucy grinned, confusing Shego who was devastated at the failure of their perfect plan. “I know how to get them both.” She explained and took out her phone. “Hey, Scud? I need some help.”
