Kim didn’t know what she was doing, why did she care so much? Kim thought and decided that she just did, what ever the reason was she couldn’t figure it and wasn’t keen on doing so anytime soon.
Kim ran until she could go no farther, she had come to the other side of Middleton which was the east side and completely different. The west side of Middleton was urban, while the east side was rural, houses were far apart and trees covered most of the landscape. It was here that Kim had lived until her father got a promotion to the space center and she moved away from what was most likely her favourite place in Middleton. Walking down a gravel paved road Kim saw a familiar sight; Middleton harbour. Back in the 1800’s Middleton was a key harbour for developing new cities in the “new world” it was a British colony back then, most peoples lives were spent on the water. The harbour was still active, but not in the way it used to be; now only cargo ships came in every few months as opposed to every couple of days. Looking out onto the pier Kim could see the silhouette of a person, coming closer she knew who that person was.
Shego stood at the edged of the pier looking out into the open water, the wind moving her hair ever so slightly. She was contemplating on what to do next she had quit working for Drakken, had destroyed any record of her being involved with any other villain and made sure that no one knew where she was. Shego knew that once news got out that she was back to being a “free agent” many villains would want her as a partner; Shego however didn’t want it. So there she stood, motionless; Kim crept up behind her, grabbing Shego’s left wrist Kim whipped her around and held her back against the post of the pier; looking deep into Shego’s eyes Kim spoke softly almost ready to break down, in her heart she knew why she was doing this but her mind wouldn’t let her except that fact.
“What are you doing?”
Kim’s eyes were pleading Shego to answer but Shego only looked away unable to bear looking at the fiery red head.
“Shego look at me”
Shego did not.
“Look at me”
Reluctantly Shego turned to see Kim’s face.
“Shego I don't’ know what to think right now but if your going to do what I think your going to do well don't do it you’ll regret it, I’ll regret it”
“What do you think I’ll do Kim?”
Kim was taken back a little, Shego had never ever used her real name the only thing that came close was Kimmie.
“I don’t know by the way you worded that note I thought you might try to kill your self”
Shego was surprised that Kim mentioned the note, but she decided not to press the issue she wasn’t ready to let Kim in, not yet anyway.
“Kim I don't know what I was really going to do, I was thinking about killing my self although the action for some reason didn’t seem to appealing to me. So I was thinking about any other options I had.”
Kim looked down, tears threatening to spill out of her eyes, she wasn’t sure what she felt for shego but she was certain that if Shego were to leave, a part of Kim would go with her.
“Kimmie listen, I don’t really know what I’m going to do but I assure you I wont try to kill myself”
Kim looked up.
“Shego what is it that’s scaring you so much?”
Shego looked stunned ‘how did she know?’ ‘did I some how let it slip?’
“What do you mean?”
“Shego I read the note something other then me is bugging you”
“Look Kimmie I just don’t want to talk about it”
Shego looked around, tears threatening to fall.
“I just don’t know where to start”
Kim looked into Shego’s eyes, cupping her face with her hands she spoke.
“Shego I’ll help, please tell me what’s wrong”
Shego leaned into Kim’s touch
“Would you really listen if I told you?”
Kim nodded.
