Kim sighed as she slipped away from the brunette's sleeping form. She wasn't proud of sneaking away in the middle of the night, but she was feeling torn inside. Loyalty…love…friends…it was tearing her apart.
As she left the front door she tied her red hair into a small ponytail.
It was time to actually get serious. No more problems of loyalty, nor more lovers going astray, and no more rebounding off of friends that she cared about. It was time to stop being Kimmie, Agent Paper, or Kim, and yet it was time to be all at once.
But that was just a facet of being a Possible and of being a Paper Master.
Setting off at a slow jog she started to form a new plan bubbling through her mind.
Her pale green skin dripped with sweat as her arms untangled themselves from the paler form of her sleeping sister. It felt good to be loved.
Love.
The sound of the work clicked in her mind.
The word felt so warm…so red…so alive.
Dark hair cascaded as she shook her head. It made her do such crazy things. For a while she was even sure that she had loved that red head.
But she was wrong. Or was she?
It felt good when she had been with that woman…Kim…yes she was Kim…Something was making it hard to think of the red head.
Rubbing her head she collapsed back down onto the bed, and wrapped her arms around her sleeping sister. It wasn't important…besides, thinking about something else made the headache leave.
Kim carefully finished packing the last of the paper into the knapsack, and pulled the flap over the main pouch, not bothering to tighten it. With a sigh she reached into a side pouch and pulled out a small video phone, and pressed the only button on the device.
“Wade…?”
A young man came on the screen, a startled look on his face, “KIM!”
The red head smiled, “Long time no see Wade…I'm sorry to ask, but I need a favor…”
The boy smiled, fingers already hot keying a program he hadn't used since the library recruited Kim. “Anything for a friend…”
