"Ugh... I'm so over today." Kim said, as she walked into her room and jumped straight into her bed. Ann Possible walked in right behind her, and saw her plop onto her comfy new bed. "Everything okay, Kimmie?" She said, and stood right in front of her. "I'm so exhausted.." She said into her pillow. "Rough day?" She questioned again. "No.. well..." She spoke again, only to stop. She lifted her head off the pillow and faced her mom.

"Ron kind of made a good point last night.." She sighed. "Ronald? Making a good point?" Her mom almost burst into laughter but knew it would make her daughter feel worse. Kim's face didn't change its distressed form.

"Okay, which is..?" She asked and rubbed her back. "Well... he said things have changed."

"Between you two?"

"No, no! Of course not! I love Ron to death! It's just that it seems everything has gone downhill since we saved the world." She said quietly. "What do you mean? You and Ron are stronger than ever, we just got the house rebuilt and on top of that you both graduated from high school! There are great things happening to you." She tried smiling, to get her daughter to smile.

"I know but... ugh! It's just so hard to understand!" She looked down at the floor. "Well honey, you've both finally become adults. And we're so, so, so extremely proud of you two. More than we'd ever imagine." She pulled Kim closer. "And I'm glad... but I just wish things would go back to normal..." She plopped her head back down on her bed. "You mean when people like Drew and the other one were always trying to take over the world and kill you?" Her mom asked sarcastically.

"Exactly." Kim spoke into her pillow, muffling her voice.

Ann stood up, and headed toward the door. "Just remember, tonight is our Christmas party. All your friends will be there. Try to focus on that, okay? I know you'll have a lot of fun." She said, then finally shutting the door. Kim rolled her face back over and watched her mom walk out the door.

Beep-beep beep beep

Kim reached in her pocket and pulled out her Kimmunicator. "What's the sitch, Wade?" Kim sat back up. "You're clear for now, but uh... did you or Ron happen to catch the news?" Wade scratched his head. "No..? Why?" She got curious and stood up, whipping her hair it of her face.

"Umm see for yourself." He said, followed by a shrug. Kim hung the Kimmunicator up, and ran downstairs. "Dad! Are you watching the-

She stopped as she looked at the living room tv.
There was a breaking report about a warehouse.

"As compared to yesterday's drug bust in downtown Chicago- thwarted by Team Possible, this has been one of the biggest busts in the past decade. We're standing in front of a warehouse here in Laos, where the last remaining members of the Yakuza have been found and caught. Authorities have the scene locked tight as possible, letting no one near the evidence."

The entire Possible family stared at the screen in awe. Even the Tweebs. The news report showed most of the members carried out in stretchers, and a couple with bruises and bandages were handcuffed and walked to the DEA vehicles. "Was this you and Ronald?" James Possible asked curiously, partially in anger that the two were involved in drug busts anyway. "No, this one wasn't us." Kim stared at the screen, not looking at her father.

"Witnesses say it was- and I quote: a spiral of gunshots, screams and destruction. It was a glowing green light show that caught the attention of anyone without a few miles out."
