As Vivian Porter struggled in the passenger compartment of the Kepler, bound by a set of electronic handcuffs behind her back that tightened as they were pulled on. She spouted words of how Drakken would find them and how useless it was to resist the will of Hephaestus, but the voice of Freedom One reached only the walls of the compartment she was in as Joss, Wade, and Hana were all in the cockpit.
"Okay Joss, the other leaders are away. Now let's snag Kim and get out of here!" Wade said, taking his seat behind the co pilot position.
"We ain't goin' back, Wade." Joss said coolly, maneuvering the Kepler in order to dodge the transport's long range cannons.
"Mind repeating that, Joss?" Wade asked, unbuckling himself from his seat. "Because it sounded like you said you're leaving your cousin behind. I know you two have had your differences, but if you think I'm going to just stand here and let you leave Kim behind, then you're going to have to shoot me..." As Wade approached Joss's seat from behind, her hand smoothly drew one of her pistols and pointed it behind her, directly at Wade. "Or we could talk more..." he continued with a gulp.
"Kim told us to go, so we're going. Sometimes we gotta put family ties to pasture and follow orders, Wade."
"Fine. Then as your Sergeant, I'm ordering you to turn this ship around and go get Kim!"
"That would then defy the Cap'n's orders and I reckon would be a declaration of mutiny, punishable by death. Now considerin' I've got a high yield pistol pointed at yer aorta, I'd stand down."
Wade's eyes widened at the fact that even without looking, Joss knew exactly where her weapon was pointed, down to the specific organ. He imagined his battlesuit might protect him from one or two shots from Joss's energy revolver, but if she managed to land any more than that in the same location, it would burn a hole through his chest. "So what, then?" he asked. "We deliver Dr. Porter to the Passages then sit on our duffs and wait?"
"No." Joss answered, punching coordinates into the autopilot computer. "We're taking Porter with us, then you're gonna wait with Hana while I find out what she knows." she said angrily. Once Wade reluctantly sat back in his chair, Joss holstered her weapon and grabbed the lever that would activate the Kepler's Quantum Drive.
"But Vivian isn't buckled into the passenger compartment!"
"Good." Joss replied as the Kepler catapulted toward their destination.
"What the Hell was that?!" Erik shouted angrily as Kim Possible stood to face he and Shego, unarmed and unarmored. After he had undoubtedly broken Ron Stoppable's hand and wrist, then blasted him with both energy cannons and nearly sent him reeling off the top of Lord Drakken's old and now nearly destroyed Caribbean Lair, she kissed him.
"What's wrong, kid? Jealous?" Shego asked with a mocking laugh that only served to make Erik even more angry.
Kim was standing between a nearly unconscious Ron and the two synthomechs with fists raised and a steely look of absolute confidence in her eyes that wouldn't be wavered by anything. Erik knew well Kim's look of determination that was a telltale sign that she would try to tear Shego and him apart with her bare hands, or die trying. He had seen it before when Kim had defeated Shego in an attempt to rescue him from Drakken before he had revealed himself as a synthodrone.
Erik ignored Shego however, and stepped forward to look down at Kim. "Are you telling me that after all this time, you're going to settle for HIM?!" he asked, pointing his digitization ray at Ron, who was trying weakly to crawl away.
Kim backed away from Erik to stay out of his reach, staying focused and calm, readying herself in a Mantis style kata with arms raised and knees bent, her hands hanging loosely in preparation. "I'm not settling." Kim said coolly. "Ron has always been beside me, even when I didn't want him to be. He has his faults, but that's what makes him..." she paused, narrowing her eyes at Erik in understanding. "... human."
