Shego was fully awake and getting ready as fast as she could, not even caring that Dr. Director would see her nude. She set up the Shegophone on its stand so she could communicate as she changed.

"Do you know where she went, or where she is headed?"

"I'm afraid not, Shego. We have no leads. I called to see if she had come to you by any chance."

"No. I'm guessing you didn't put a tracker on her?"

"Didn't think she'd escape."

"Always prepare for the worst. Are Kim's parents still up there?"

"Yes, they are. We are trying to see if they know."

"Good. I'm dropping the kids off with them. I am going to find Kim!"

"Shego, we have no leads, anymore then you do. What makes you think you can find her?"

"You forget, Kim is my wife. I know everything about her. I will find her."

With that, Shego cut the connection and headed to the girls room. It was roughly 2:15 in the morning and Shego was fully prepared to drag her daughters to the car if she had to. The one reason she didn't want to leave them in the house was the fear that Kim would come home and have one of her aggressive episodes, hurting them. Shego flipped on the lights and the girls tossed and groaned at the unwanted light.

"Girls, get up. I don't have time for this right now. Mommy is missing."

Both girls sat upright and alert at the news. "We gonna go look for her?"

Sheki was up on her feet getting dressed unsteadily, while Shego helped Kasy out of bed and into her clothing.

"No. You two are going to stay with Grandpa and Grandma at the GJ house while I go look for her. Now come on let's get to the car."

Shego picked Kasy up with Sheki holding her hand as she led the way to the car.

Dr. Director waited at the main GJ entrance for Shego with what looked like an iPad in her hand that allowed her to track any progress of Kim's location. She looked up as the doors slid open to reveal Shego in her black and green jumpsuit with Kasy in her arms barely staying awake and Sheki holding her hand alert and worried.

"Mrs. Possible…."

"Cut the crap we don't have time for it. I will stay in contact with you through the Shegophone, where are James, and Ann?"

"Right this way."

Dr. Director led the way down a short hall to what looked like a waiting room to find James and Ann on a padded bench holding each other. Shego went in and looked both of them in the eye.

"I need you to watch them for now. I am going to find Kim. Try to get them to sleep if they can."

Shego let go of Sheki's hand and set Kasy down in front of her.

"Alright you two. Be good for Grandma and Grandpa ok?"

The girls nodded their heads in understanding. Sheki more so than Kasy.

"Good. I will be back I promise. And no matter what happens I love you both very much."

Shego kissed both their heads then turned to leave but stopped short when she heard Sheki's voce.

"You bringing Mommy back?"

Shego looked Sheki in the eye wishing she could say everything would be ok and that their Mommy would be back, but with such little time she knew she couldn't.

"I'll try."

And with that she left her daughters behind to search for Kim.

"Shego, I really think you should sit down so I can brief you on the situation so you know who all is working with us…."

"I don't care, Betty. I can take a good guess you have everyone available working on it. I don't need a partner, I work faster on my own."

Shego stepped into her car and sped off into the night. She went to a house she hadn't been to often but she still remembered none the less. She knocked on the door and waited. When no one answered she picked the lock and let herself in. The house was dark but she knew at least one person would be up so she headed for the room. She opened the door to find him sitting at his desk with bloodshot eyes staring at his computer screen.

"Wade."

Wade jumped at the sound of Shego's voce obviously not hearing her come in.

"S…. Shego….. What are you….. doing here?"

"I need to find Kim and I'm sure Global Justice already contacted you?"

"Y… Yes. I'm looking now but don't have…. Any luck."

"Ok, first, relax. I am married to her remember. I am not going to hurt you. I just need to talk to you."

"Right, married. What do you need?"

"Do you have a tracking device on her?"

"No, if I did I would have used it by now."

"Ok, plan B. I know you have the DNA tracker. All you need is a sample of the persons DNA right?"

"What! How did you know?!"

"I have connections. Don't worry I won't tell GJ. I know it's above their security clearance level, so they won't even know to look for it. Here this is one of Kim's hair brushes. Get some hair and let's fire that thing up."

"Ok. So you won't tell anyone?"

"No. I will forever be in your debt if you do this for me."

Wade gulped and took a strand of red hair from the brush. He rolled over to his printer and put the hair on the scanning board then scanned it.

"A printer? Really?"

"It's not a machine. Just software, I rigged it to work with my printer."

Wade rolled back to his computer where a satellite image had pulled up.

"Kim should be popping up right…. About… NOW! There! That's it! She's at the abandoned nuclear plant!"

"Oh, Princess, what are you doing all the way out there?"

"It's not far from here: Let me see your Shegophone."

Shego narrowed her eyes on him before handing him the device.

"You better not call GJ."

"Huh? Wasn't going to, why not?"

"Betty will go to extremes to keep the innocent safe. She might put Kim down if she has to."

"Don't worry. I just put in the coordinates for the GPS feature. You can go get her."

Shego turned to leave.

"Shego….. bring her back in one piece."

Shego nodded then headed out of the house locking it back before she sped off toward the plant. She followed her GPS until she got there. It was a large, fenced-off area with radioactive warnings all around. Not that Shego had to worry. She walked up to the square building that had nuclear smokestack columns rising toward the night sky. She guessed Kim was inside. She grabbed hold of the handles and yanked them open.
