Chapter 31 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 31

(7:58pm, Feb. 15, 2006)

The girls that were present in the Rockwaller house then went to Bonnie's bedroom.

"So before we get to business, mind if I ask why you did up your overall strap?" Bonnie asked to Ashley A's decision to reattach the left strap to her overalls.

"They were about to fall down and I didn't want Possible and Stoppable to laugh at me while I was doing my lines." Ashley A replied.

"Fair enough." Bonnie admitted before getting to the real business of the meeting.

"Now, do you have the footage of Possible and Stoppable's kiss?"

The pairs of eyes then turned to Amanda and her video camera.

"Duh, B. Of course I got the goods!" Amanda slyly replied, patting the camera.

"Well, don't just stand there! Put in the tape!" Bonnie insisted.

Since Bonnie had a 21" TV and VCR/DVD combo player in her room, Amanda took out the tape. She then put it in the VCR part of the player.

"We're going to have to fast-foward until the end." Ashley A said, pressing the FF button.

Since the tape was an hour and a half long, she fast-forwarded the tape to the part where the Kim and Ron kiss happened.

Ashley A paused the VCR at the moment that Kim and Ron kissed on the stage.

"And there is the moment."

"EEEEEEWWWWW!" Bonnie exclaimed. "That is gross on so many levels!"

"I think I'm gonna be sick!" Ashley A grimaced.

"Totally disgusting!" Amanda agreed on both Bonnie's and Ashley A's reaction.

Hope and Ashley B said nothing but closed their eyes in terror over one simple kiss. This did represent a threat to Bonnie's MHS Food Chain system in their eyes.

"Okay, so the good news is that we got the evidence of their kiss." Ashley A said, assessing the sitch that was in front of the mean girls.

"But now comes a tougher question: How are we going to get it through the walls of Middleton High without Possible or Stoppable noticing?"

"You have a point, AA." Bonnie admitted. She hadn't thought that far in her plan. "Let me try and think."

The brunette pondered on her bed for a moment.

"I'm getting an idea in my head...wait a minute...I think it's coming!"

Then Bonnie had that Eureka moment.

"I got it!"

"What?" Ashley B asked, "What is it?"

"AB, you do know we have a rivalry with the Golden Dancers, right?" Bonnie questioned. She was referring to the Middleton High Golden Dancer squad that usually performed with the marching band during the football season.

"We do, yes." Ashley B replied, "But we usually only play minor pranks on them such as TPing their houses or making ugly faces at them at their practices."

"This is next level!" Bonnie snickered, "We are going to plant that video in one of the Golden Girls' backpacks at night."

Ashley A and Ashley B reacted with extreme interest in this with their catchphrase.

"Ooooo...extra scandalous."

However, Amanda and Hope weren't so sure.

"How are we going to sneak in one of their houses without us getting in trouble?" Hope asked.

"Leave that to me!" Bonnie grinned.

And so, she detailed out her plan for getting one of the Golden Dancers in deep trouble.

(7:06pm)

At Bueno Nacho, Kim, Ron, and the rest of the Possible family ordered their food. Kim and Ron went to their usual booth on one end of the restaurant and the other Possibles chose a booth on the opposite end. Rufus, of course, was waiting on his Naco on the table.

"So, KP, where do you think we should practice Act II?" Ron asked.

"I wish if we could do it at my house, but...you know...the Tweebs." Kim groaned, looking at her brothers.

"Then what about the treehouse in my backyard?" Ron suggested, "It's much quieter there."

"The treehouse will do." Kim replied. "We can practice there alone."

"Yeah, given that only two people can come up there." Ron said as Ned delivered their orders to the table.

Ron then put the Diablo sauce on the Naco. Rufus dug into his.

"I just hope no awk-weird moments happen between us, you know." Kim said, eating her taco salad.

"I know. Just meet up at a time and we can go from there." Ron replied.

(8:00am, Feb. 16, 2006)

Kim came up to her locker. She was in a long green button-down shirt, dark denim baggy CB overalls with both straps hooked, paired both with a patterned blazer and brown heeled boots. She also held the Romeo and Juliet script in her hands.

Monique then came up to her. She was in a long dark denim dress with three gold CB necklaces and black heel boots.

"Girl, have you set up something with Ron for Act 2?" the fashionista asked.

"I did. We managed to set up something for tonight after this go-around for practice." Kim replied. "He suggested the treehouse at his place at 7pm."

"For real, which scenes are you going to do again?" Monique questioned.

"The first three scenes, Monique." Kim said, "It's going to be no big." _

(8 hours later, 4pm)

All of the students of Drama class gathered once again in the main auditorium of Middleton High. This time, everyone, even Ron, was present and on time and with their scripts. They were all backstage along with Barkin.

The Glee Three then assembled before the other participants.

"Everyone, we are going to do the prologue and first three scenes of Act II." Cara insisted.

Vance added, "And I want everything to go smoothly and perfect this time."

"Without any mistakes!" Laramie concluded.

"Can't they try to cut out that finishing sentences thing?" Kim asked to Ron. "It's so annoying."

"Okay, everyone, places!" Barkin exclaimed, "We don't have time for shenanigans!"

Hope, TJ and Gus then came out on the stage as the Chorus to set up the prologue for Act 2.

"Now, Romeo's old feelings of desire of a previous love, Rosaline, is already dying and a new love, Juliet, is going to take its place. Romeo and Rosaline used to be together but she pales nothing in comparison to Juliet's tender beauty. " Hope began.

TJ continued, "Even though they are charmed by each other's looks, Romeo has to take into account that Juliet is a family member of a mortal enemy. Juliet is suffering the same thing as well."

And Gus concluded. "Beacause of this, they both have no means of seeing each other. However, passion gives these two the power and time will grant them an opportunity!"

All three students then exited the stage.

Chapter 30 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 30

(Feb. 15, 2006, 5:28pm)

Kim and the rest of the Drama class group came off the stage. She led the walk up to the Glee Three, whom were sitting in the front row.

"So how did we do?" she asked.

Laramie huffed, "Meh, a small improvement, Possible."

"More like a B-minus!" Cara retorted.

Vance added, "That dance scene was so awful that it would make the 'Breakdancing for B-List Actor' show look like a professional ballet company!"

"Don't you even remember, Possible..." Cara reminded Kim, "...that every single thing must be perfect for the night of the performance, even if it takes us weeks to do it!"

"Look, I'm no fortune-teller or whatever, but you cannot predict that everything is going to swimmingly for this play!" Kim insisted, " What if someone gets sick or if there is a loose nail in the background? There are a multitude of sitches that can go wrong!"

"We have the credentials to back it up." Vance replied smugly. "We've done Our Town, King Lear, To Kill A Mockingbird, and a whole host of other plays that would take us all night to list in our lives. And each one of them was perfect down to the smallest detail."

"I wish if we had more time arguing about this..." Kim sneered, "...but I've got more...family matters...to tend to." She was talking about the upcoming vacation to Nebraska to see her mom's parents.

"Okay, people!" Barkin exclaimed, "Now that we are done with Act I, we are going to do the first three scenes from Act II tomorrow. I expect everyone to be in the main auditorium tomorrow at 4pm sharp."

Kim sighed, "Great...more painful practice..."

"You know, KP, there is an old saying. 'No pain, no gain'!" Ron insisted.

"Ron, can you please not make it more complicated than it is?" Kim asked before hearing a voice from the seats.

"Hey, Kim! Glad that I came along!"

Kim then turned to the rows of seats and did see a familiar face, the only one rather, aside from Barkin and the students.

It was Professor Acitas. She subsituted her scientist outfit for a blouse and jeans.

"Professor, what are you doing here?" Kim asked, "Shouldn't you be with Professor Acuna?"

Acitas replied with a smile "Oh yes, he indeed is here. We just wanted to catch a break in-between insect conferences from Europe to here in the US, so, being a minor in Shakespeare studies, I stumbled upon your Romeo and Juliet play and...here I am."

"What about Acuna?" Ron asked.

"You know him!" Acitas giggled, "He's studying the insects that reside within the walls of Middleton High!"

"Ewww..." Ron insisted, "I hope he doesn't study the mystery meat."

"Getting back to the topic at hand..." Acitas asked, "...has there been any update on the insect helmet?"

"Sadly, we have very little to go on." Kim said, putting her hands in her overall pockets, "Drakken and Shego are definitely not the ones behind the theft. So that would leave us with either Killigan who, again, stole the device before or Professor Dementor. Or maybe it could be some super villain who we haven't even faced off before."

"I hope if you two could find it soon." Acitas sighed. "That device would be devastating if it were to fall into the wrong hands."

(6:18pm)

Kim and Ron got a ride to the Possible house with the help of Monique's mom.

"Well, guess I'll try and pack up for the weekend to get to Nebraska to visit Mom's 'rents as well as study some of the lines from Act II." Kim replied. "What about you, Ron?"

"I'm gonna do the same as well, KP." Ron insisted. "Rufus seems to be set."

Rufus held up a little briefcase and squeaked, "Packed!"

"Okay..." Kim replied with a shrug of her shoulders, "...so what are we gonna do about dinner?"

"Well, there's either Mom's tuna casserole or..." Ron said before he anticipated what Kim was going to say.

"Bueno Nacho?" Kim guessed.

"You read my mind, KP!" Ron said with a laugh. "I would rather feed that to the cat lady who lives next door rather than eat it myself."

Kim entered through the door.

"Hey, Kimmie-cub!" James said with a smile.

"How was your day at school?" Ann asked.

The parents were in their usual work outfits.

The two of them were starting to pack up for the weekend trip to Nebraska, judging from the suitcases at the master bedroom upstairs.

"It was spankin', Mom. We did manage to get through Act I of Romeo and Juliet today." Kim replied.

"What about Ronald?" James then inquired.

"Ron managed to get through it okay. He stuttered on a few lines, though." Kim replied. She did not want to tell the news of her kiss with Ron for fear that it would seep to the Tweebs.

Kim then noticed the suitcases upstairs.

"So, Mom, where's my suitcase?" she then asked.

"It should be in the closet at the end of the hallway, where your brothers' suitcases are." Ann replied.

Kim headed upstairs and did find her luggage exactly where Ann pointed out.

"I'll try and start packing up." she said as she was carrying the suitcase up the stairs to her room.

However, Jim and Tim then emerged from their bedroom with a remote control car.

Kim raised her eyebrow with suspicion.

"What do you want this time, Tweebs?"

"We were going to the backyard to see if..." Jim began.

"...our remote control car would fly, given the..." Tim then added the middle to the sentence.

"...changes we made to it." Jim then finished it up.

"You know, finishing each other's sentences is really freaky." Kim said, "Now, if you don't mind, we're going to have to pack up for Mom's 'rents this weekend."

"Whatever, we won't start packing..." Jim began the reply.

"...until tomorrow." Tim finished.

Kim motioned her eyes to them.

"You'd better not damage anything outside." she warned.

Jim and Tim went downstairs with the RC car while Kim climbed the final few steps to her bedroom, suitcase in hand.

Kim laid out the four pairs of Club Banana baggy overalls on her bed that she planned to wear. Two were dark denim, the third was railroad stripe, and the fourth one was khaki, similar to what she was currently wearing. Since she had 20 pairs of overalls to choose from (of which more than half were dark denim), she decided to go with a little bit of variety.

"Alright, now that I organized them, I'll have to choose the tops next." Kim said to herself, "Since Nebraska's gonna be cold this time of the year, I'll go with the long sleeved tops. Maybe add a coat to it to keep myself warm."

She then looked at the railroad stripe overalls, which usually served as a go-to for babysitting duties. However, the right strap clasp was bent a little from a babysitting gig she did a month ago, and thus was prone to slipping off the button. Kim normally alleviated this by going the one-strap route.

Kim went through her drawers to accessorize the outfits before leaving with her family to head to Bueno Nacho to meet with Ron.

(7:30pm)

Ashley A, along with Ashley B, Hope, and Amanda, arrived at the garage over at the Rockwaller house. Aside from Ashley A doing up one of the overall straps earlier, none of the other girls made changes to their bib-down overalls.

"Can you try and call her to see if Bonnie's home?" Hope asked.

"She texted me 15 minutes ago and said that she was finishing up ballet practice." Amanda replied. Bonnie usually had ballet practice once a week on Wednesdays. "She should be at the house soon."

Veronica then opened the front door.

"Why, hello, girls! Would you like to come in? It's getting a bit cold outside." she asked.

"Sure thing, Mrs. Rockwaller." Ashley B replied with a smile. The girls went inside the Rockwaller house.

"Would you like anything to eat or drink?" Veronica asked.

"Yeah, some cookies and milk would be good." Ashley A replied, "Since Ashley T isn't here, of course."

The other girls followed behind Veronica into the house.

"Is there anyone else here?" Hope asked.

"Just Jonnie." Veronica replied, referring to the youngest member of the Rockwaller family. "Donnie's at the station right now and Connie and Lonnie are out of town."

Veronica then heard another motor from the thick walls of the house.

"That must be Bonnie!" she giggled while putting the plate of cookies and pitcher of milk on the kitchen table.

"How did you know?" Amanda asked.

"Let's just say us mothers have a sixth sense about things!" Veronica said with a smile.

Bonnie came through the front door, exhausted. The only change she made to the undone overall outfit was that she was not exposing the rim of her CB boxers. She was holding a large tote bag containing her ballet costume. The brunette quickly collapsed on the couch.

"Aww...did Bonnie have a hard day at ballet?" Veronica questioned.

"Don't even ask, Mother." Bonnie muttered. "Stupid ballet teacher kept us there longer than normal."

"You do have some company." Veronica giggled, "Some of your friends are here!"

Bonnie's exhausted look turned to that of glee.

"Where are they?"

"In the kitchen. I gave them some freshly-baked cookies from the oven and milk."

"I could go for some right now."

Bonnie went into the kitchen and saw the four girls there, eating the cookies.

"Hey, my girls. I thought you would come a bit later than usual." she said.

"We decided to arrive a bit earlier, hoping you would be here." Ashley B replied.

"Yeah. We got a few...important matters...to tend to." Ashley A insisted, winking at Bonnie.

Bonnie then remembered what she meant earlier, "Oh right, I know what you mean!"

Veronica giggled, "You girls go ahead and talk about cute boys and fashion! I'll be in the master bedroom waiting for Donnie!" She headed towards the hallway.

Seeing that the coast was clear, Bonnie said to the other girls. "Head to my bedroom after you finish the cookies."

The other girls nodded their heads in agreement.

Chapter 29 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 29

(Feb. 15, 2006, 4:49pm)

It was now time for the fifth and final scene of Act I of Romeo and Juliet . And Kim feared this scene as the worst one of the act, for she had to kiss Ron on the lips...without any Moodulating chip.

It is not a BF/GF kiss in any way, shape or form . she thought to herself, You are doing this only for a grade, nothing more.

Lord Capulet, played by Reeger, came on to the stage first. This was followed by Tybault, played by TJ (who doubled as one of the Chorus members and who Barkin gave to since he didn't announce who played the character), Zita as Lady Capulet. Kim, of course, came in as Juliet, and the Nurse, played by Ashley A. Half of the class made up the Capulets when not as the chorus

They then saw Ron, Felix and Arnie as Romeo, Benvolio, and Marcuito, respectively.

Kim gulped upon seeing Ron, while Ashley A gave an evil smirk.

Just you wait and see, Possible...

Reeger then proclaimed, "Welcome, gentlemen. The ladies who aren't shy shall dance for you! Ha, my ladies, which of you will refuse to dance now? Does this hit close to home? Welcome gentlemen. Come on musicians, play music!"

Amanda sighed from her desk and put out a CD player with a CD that says, "Lame-o 16th Century Elizabethian Music" in permanent marker. She put the CD inside the player and started to play it. She had been instructed by the Glee Three to stop at certain intervals in the scene.

The students on the stage began to dance to the Shakespearian music.

To one of the Capulet's Cousins, played by Earwin Lawson whom was a senior at the time of Middleton High and played defensive end for the Mad Dogs football team, Reeger then added.

"Ah, sir. These unexpected guests are welcome. No, sit, sit, my Capulet cousin. We're too old to dance. How long has it been since you and I last wore masks?"

Earwin replied, "I'd say about 30 years."

"What? No, it hasn't been that long. It was at Lucentio's wedding. No matter how quickly the years fly by, it's been just 25 years since we last wore masks.

Ron went to a servingman, played by Mikey Blumberg. Mikey, as well as his other friends from 3rd Street School from their youth, were all juniors at Middleton High.

He was looking at his longtime friend.

"Who is the girl on the arm of that lucky man over there?" Ron asked, trying to keep himself in character.

Mikey replied, "I don't know, sir."

"Oh, she shows the torches how to burn bright! Her beauty is too good for this world; she's too beautiful to die and be buried. She outshines the other women like a white dove in the middle of a flock of crows. When this dance is over, I'll see where she stands, and then I'll touch her hand with my rough and ugly one. Did my heart ever love anyone before this moment! My eyes were liars because I never saw true beauty before tonight."

Inside Ron's head, there was Joyous Ron, Angry Ron, Fearful Ron, Disgust Ron, and Sadness Ron.

"I don't know if we should do this..." Fearful Ron replied, "I don't know if we should kiss Kim. It could impact our friendship with her in a negative way. He's known her for almost 13 years!"

"Look at it this way..." Angry Ron said "...it's either this or getting an F on the course and not graduating on the stage!"

"But shouldn't we celebrate that we are actually going to get Ron to finally, for real, kiss Kim?" Joyous Ron asked. "It would be like getting the largest chimmerito that Bueno Nacho has ever made! Covered in sweet and spicy Diabo sauce!

"No...Kim's going to get mad at him...her parents are going to get mad at him...and he'll get grounded for life by his parents!" Sadness Ron whined before breaking down in tears.

"Ewww...I think she would totally use the wrong lip gloss to kiss Ron on the lips." Disgust Ron said.

Tybault, played by TJ, then came onto the scene glaring at Ron.

"I can tell by his voice that the man is a foul Montague!" Looking at the Page, played by Gus, who also was doing double-duty as one of the chorus members, he added, "Get me my sword!"

With his eyes back at Ron, TJ continued, "What, does this peasant dare to come here with his face covered by a mask to sneer and scorn our celebration?"

Gus gave TJ a styrofoam and grey plastic sword.

TJ added, "Now, by the honor of our family, I do not consider it a crime to kill him!"

Reeger intervened and asked "Why? What's going on here, nephew? Why are you so angry?"

"Uncle, this man is a Montague-our enemy!" TJ exclaimed, "He's a scoundrel who's come here out of spite to mock our party!"

"That must be Romeo, right?" Reeger asked.

"That's him, that villain Romeo." TJ exclaimed.

"Calm down, cousin. Leave him alone!" Reeger insisted, "He carries himself like a dignified gentleman..."

Ron was also picking his nose while waiting for his line.

"...and to tell you the truth, he holds a reputation throughout Verona as a well-behaved young man. I wouldn't insult him in my own house for all the wealth in this town. So calm down. Just ignore him. That's what I want, and if you respect my wishes, you'll look nice and stop frowning because that's not the way you should behave at a feast."

"It's the right to way to act when a villain like him shows up!" TJ countered, "I won't tolerate him!"

"You will tolerate him! What, little man? I say you will. What the...am I the boss here or you?" Reeger exclaimed "You'll start a riot among my guests! There will be chaos and it will be your fault.

"But uncle, we're being disrespected!" TJ shouted.

"Go on, go on..." Reeger mocked, "You're an insolent little man. Is that how it is, really? This stupidity will come back to bite you. You're a punk, get away! Keep your mouth shut or else!"

"More light! More light!" Reeger then called out to the lighting crews to intensify the stage lights. They did so.

Turning back to TJ, he added, "I'll shut you up!"

"The combination of forced patience and pure rage is making my body tremble!" TJ insisted, holding onto the plastic sword, "I'll leave here now, but Romeo's prank, which seems so weet to him now, will turn bitter to him later."

As TJ left, the other students on the stage resumed the coordinated dancing. Amanda then whispered something to the head student of the lighting crew to focus on the attention of Kim and Ron, whom were also dancing as well up to this time. This was also when Amanda turned the video camera to focus on the pair as well as zooming in to make sure she got some grade-A footage for Bonnie and her co-horts.

When the lighting focused on them, Kim gulped as she held both hands with Ron. Both of their cheeks began to blush at the fluttering language of the next few lines.

"Your hand is like a holy place that my hand is unworthy to visit." Ron said to Kim with his cheeks blushing. "If you're offended by the touch of my hand, my two lips are standing here like blushing pilgrims, ready to make things better with a kiss.

Kim gathered the strength to read her next line, despite her nervousness.

"Good pilgrim, you don't give your hand enough credit. By holding my hand, you show polite devotion. After all, pilgrims touch the hands of statues of saints. Holding one palm against another is like a kiss."

Amanda meanwhile focused the video camera on them.

"Don't saints and pilgrims have lips too?" Ron asked, leaning in closer to Kim.

"Yes, pilgrim!" Kim replied, "They have lips that they're supposed to pray with."

It's only a play, Possible. It's only a play.

"Well then, saint, let lips do what hands do" Ron replied with his cheeks blushing even more. "I'm praying for you to kiss me. Please grant my prayer so my faith doesn't turn to despair.

Kim replied nervously smiling, "Saints do move, even when they grant prayers."

Ron then replied, "Then don't move while I act out my prayer."

As he said this, Ron leaned in, took a deep breath and kissed Kim on the lips for a small six seconds. Amanda zoomed in with the camera with glee.

"Now my sin has been taken by your lips." Ron said with a slightly higer voice over this act.

"Do my lips now have your sin?" Kim asked, her cheeks just flush with red.

"Sin from my lips?" Ron wondered, "You encourage crime with your sweetness. Give me my sin back."

And with that, both he and Kim kissed a second time on the lips. This time, it was a five second kiss.

"You kissed like you studied how." Kim replied after composing herself upon kissing her best friend twice in that span of 15 seconds.

Ashley A, upon seeing that Amanda has done her job in capturing both kisses of Team Possible for Bonnie, pushed Ron to the side and said to Kim while slightly pulling up her bib down overalls. The pin to her belt broke earlier in the day and it was no good in doing up the strap since she manipulated both buckles so Ashley A was forced to hold them up by the hand.

"Madam, your mother wants to talk to you."

Ron then asked to Ashley A, "Who is her mother?"

Ashley A said with a slight grin, for she and the rest of the Mean Cheers agreed to meet at Bonnie's house at 7:30pm tonight. Bonnie also texted that she was at ballet practice, for that was her routine every Wednesday.

"Indeed, young man, her mother is the lady of the house. She is a good, wise, and virtuous lady. I nursed her daughter, whom you were just talking to. Let me tell you, the man who marries her will become very wealthy."

Ron then stood alone and said, "Is she a Capulet? Oh, this is a heavy price to pay! My life is my enemy's debt."

Felix then came to Ron and said, "Come on, let's go while everything is still perfect.

Ron replied to Felix over what had happened. "Yes, but I'm afraid I'm in more trouble than ever."

Reeger came up to the pair and said, "No, gentlemen, don't get ready to go now. We have a little dessert coming up. Is that really true, Well then, I thank you both. I thank you honest gentlemen. Good night. Bring more torches over here. Come let's get to bed. Ah, my man, I swear it's getting late. I'm going to get some rest"

And with that, almost everyone left the stage except for Ashley A and Kim. Kim's blushing from those two kisses had faded away.

"Come over here, nurse." Kim insisted to the Mean Cheer member, "Who is that gentleman?"

Ashley A replied , "He is the son and heir of old Tiberio."

Kim then asked, "Who's the one who's going out the door right now?"

Ashley A then said, "Well, that one, I think, is young Petruchio."

"Who's the one following over there?" Kim then questioned, pointing, "The one who wouldn't dance?"

"I don't know his name." came Ashley A's reply.

"Go ask." Kim insisted. Ashley A ran off the stage while holding up her bib-down overalls.

Kim thought to herself.

It's a good thing I didn't see the MC Honey-Britina video. My parents would freak if I wore them like that. And Ashley A needs to get herself a belt.

"If he's married, I think I'll die rather than marry anyone else." Kim said while the blush returned to her face.

Ashley A returned. This time, she managed to refasten the left overall strap, leaving the right one undone.

"His name is Romeo. He's a Montague." Ashley A replied, "He's the only son of your greatest enemy."

Kim turned to the audience, which consisted only of Amanda, Barkin, and a few of the Drama students, including the Glee Three, plus a scientist and one of the Golden Dancers awaiting her ride because she ended up in detention. Her name was Lisa.

She said. "The one man I love is the son of the one man I hate! I saw him before I knew who he was and learned it too late! What a monster love is to make me love my worst enemy."

Ashley A then asked, "What's this? What's this?"

"A rhyme I learned just now from somebody I danced with." Kim replied.

Gus called from off-stage, "Juliet!"

"On our way! Come on, let's go!" Ashley A insisted, "The strangers have all left!"

The two girls exited and mercifully ended the first act.

Fanfic Question

This is for Roneo and Kimliet, just as a disclaimer.

My question is this: How would Kim and Ron react when they actually DO kiss on stage as Romeo and Juliet? What sort of reactions should be going on in their heads?

And again, this takes place three months before So the Drama. So they are not a couple...yet.

[sharperthewriter]

Chapter 28 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 28

(Feb 15, 2006, 4:30pm)

Kim was holding her script when she approached the small auditorium that housed the drama productions...despite the critters living there and that they were going to go to the main auditorium to do the actual live performance.

"Okay, Possible, you got this in the bag! You're going out there and conquer scenes four and five!"

She entered through the prop doors and saw almost everyone else there...that is, except for one person. Also, a familiar professor was in the crowd with a MHS visitor's badge on but Kim didn't see her at first.

"Hey, Mr. Barkin. Have you seen Ron?" Kim asked with worry for her best friend.

"How am I supposed to know, Possible?" Barkin replied in his usual gruff manner, "I am not his personal secretary! Besides, we cannot start the play without half of the title character!"

"You're also beginning to try our patience!" Cara growled at Kim.

"Can you can it, Cara?" Kim countered angrily, "Ron will be here..." before she trailed off, "...I hope."

_ (5 minutes later)

Ron finally made it into the auditorium...although his hair, and his clothes, got doused with blueberry slush.

"I finally made it!" he exclaimed, holding his partially drenched script. Thankfully, it only got on the cover and not on the pages.

"Ron!" Kim exclaimed, rushing up to his side "What happened?"

"One of the football players gave me a slurpster facial." Ron moaned, "I commented on how his varsity jacket had a loose thread and he didn't take it well."

"I am amazed that the MUSD never recognized them as implements of bullying..." Kim muttered while giving Ron a towel, "Then again, the board is run by Veronica Rockwaller..."

Bonnie and the Mean Cheers, as well as many other members of Middleton High's athletic teams, especially the football team, were known for carrying King-Sized Slurpsters around the school. Just the mere sight of those Slurpsters would cause other MHS students, especially those students that belonged to some of the less popular clubs, to cower in fear. Very often, they brought along rain jackets and ponchos to try and protect their articles of clothing from the stains of the high-sugar content. And with Veronica often ruling that the board do not recognize them as bullying tools, this gave the brunette and her co-horts free reign to carry them around.

"Yeah, it's totally lousy, KP!" Ron agreed while wiping the slush from his face with the towel. "But I am here at least."

"And you get deducted by a point for being late, Stoppable!" Barkin said while taking his infamous red pen. "Remember that it will reflect your final grade for the course!"

Vance also chimed in, "Stoppable, stop being a slacker!"

"Well..." Ron countered, "...you can't slack as well as I can!"

"Can we please get to the final two scenes?" Barkin interrupted, "We only got an hour and a half before the board closes up the school for tonight."

Vance clapped his hands and said to the other students.

"Okay, places, everyone! Stoppable, I want you, Renton and Custer to get into position for Scene 4! We are going to do the party backdrop!" Vance exclaimed.

Ron, Felix and Arnie all moved to the left side of the stage. Felix and Milo Kamalani were in the roles of Benvolio and Mercuito, respectively. They also had their scripts.

"Is everything set, assistant director?" Vance asked to Ashley A. Since the desk she was in had a hole in the front, she got out her video camera from her backpack and put the lens of the camera in front of the hole.

Ashley A gave a thumbs up and replied, "Everything's perfect!"

"And...action!" Vance exclaimed.

Ron was the first to come on the stage followed with Felix and Milo.

He said the first line of the scene.

"What will we say is our excuse for being here? Or shoud we enter without apologizing?"

"It's out of fashion to give lengthy explanations like that." Felix replied, "We're not going to introduce our dance by having someone dress up as Cupid blindfolded and carrying a toy bow to frighten the ladies like a scarecrow. Nor are we going to recite a memorized speech to introduce ourselves."

He continued, "Let them judge us however they please. We'll give them a dance and then hit the road."

Ron sighed, "I don't want to dance!"

Then Milo came in, saying his first lines as Mercuito.

"No, noble Romeo, you've got to dance!" Milo said.

"Not me, believe me. You're wearing dancing shoes with nimble soles. My soul is made out of lead, and it's so heavy it keeps me stuck to the ground so I can't move!"

Milo replied enthusiastically, "You're a lover! Take Cupid's wings and fly higher than the average man!"

"His arrow has pierced me too deeply, so I can't fly high with his cheerful feathers." Ron replied. "Because this wound keeps me down! I can't leap any higher than my dull sadness. I sink under the heavy weight of love."

"It's not right to drag down something as tender as love!" Milo replied.

"Is love really tender? I think it's too rough, too rude, too rowdy and it pricks like a thorn." Ron wondered.

"If love plays rough with you, play rough with love!" Milo exclaimed from the script. "If you prick love where it pricks you, you'll beat love down."

Milo then spotted three masks on the table.

"Give me a mask to put my face in!"

Ron gave him the mask on the right.

"A mask to put over my other mask." Milo continued while holding the mask in one hand and his script in the other. "What do I care if some curious person sees my flaws?"

While Scene 4 was going on, Amanda was curious at how Ron composed himself after he split his pants yesterday from the first three scenes.

She then sent a text to Bonnie.

B,

I think we may need to sabotage Stoppable. He's getting too good out there on the stage. And a single slurpster hardly did any damage to his script.

A

Back on the stage, Milo continued his lines.

"Let this mask, with its black eyebrows, blush for me!"

Felix then replied, "Come, let's knock and go in. The minute we get in, let's all start dancing."

Ron replied to Felix "We mean well by going to this masked ball, but it's not smart of us to go."

"And why, may I ask?" Milo questioned.

"I had a dream last night." Ron said.

Arnie countered, "So did I!"

"What was your dream?" Ron asked.

"My dream told me that dreamers often lie." Milo replied.

"They lie in bed while they dream of the truth!" Ron said.

"Oh, then I see that Queen Mab has visited you!" Milo countered.

"Queen Mab?" Felix questioned, "Who's she?"

"She's the fairies' midwife, and is no bigger than the stone on the ring of a city councilman. She rides her carriage, which is pulled by tiny little creatures, over men's noses as they lie sleeping. The wheel spokes of her carriage are made of spiders' legs; its cover is made of grasshopper wings; and its harnesses are made of the smallest spiderwebs. The horse collars are made from moonbeams, while her whip is a single cobweb attached to a cricket bone. Her wagon driver is a tiny gnat wearing a gray coat that is not even half as..."

However, Milo then saw that his lengthy lines were cut off. But seeing how any protest of the cut objectionable content and cut lines to extend the mandated two-hour timeframe was squished by Barkin yesterday and that the threat of Veronica Rockwaller was present, he didn't say a word and allowed Ron to say his lines.

"Calm down, calm down! Mercuito be quiet. You're talking about nonsense."

"True." Milo said, "I'm talking about dreams, which are the products of a brain that's doing nothing. Dreams are nothing but silly imagination as thin as air and less predictible than the wind, which sometimes blows on the frozen north and then gets angry and blows south."

"The wind you're talking about is blowing us off our course." Felix replied, "Dinner is over, and we're going to be late getting there."

Both Arnie and Felix left the right side of the stage, giving Ron a chance to say his monologue before the scene was over.

"I'm worried we'll get there too early, I have a feeling this party tonight will be the start of something bad, something that will end with my own death! But whoever's in charge of where my life's going can steer me wherever they want. Onward, lover boys!"

The entirety of the scene lasted only five minutes. But Kim was clenching her script tight, knowing that she has to kiss her best friend twice in a span of 20 seconds. She couldn't get over the fact that this boy, whom was stuck in a tree costume for an hour in the bathroom and it had to take the Middleton Fire Dept. to get him out of it and whom suffered from the Cowardly Lion incident last year, was dominating with Felix on the stage.

It's only a play, Possible. It's only a play.

Chapter 27 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 27

(Feb. 14, 2006, 8:11pm)

Back at the Possible house, Kim and Monique were finishing up the lines from Scene 5.

"So I have to kiss Ron pretty much twice in a span of two minutes in that scene of the masked ball..." Kim said sighing.

"Yep...that's what it says on the play, girl." Monique replied.

"Too bad the censors didn't cut it out." Kim muttered, "But still, it's only a play...only a play!"

Then, the Kimmunicator on Kim's bed, beeped the familiar four-beep tune.

Beep-beep-be-beep

"I'll get that." Kim insisted as she grabbed the Kimmunicator.

"Hey Wade, what's the sitch?"

"Hey Kim, how's the Romeo and Juliet thing going?" Wade asked.

"Okay so far, we got through the first three scenes of Act I and we're going to finish the rest of it tomorrow." Kim didn't want to mention anything between her and Ron to Wade as of yet.

Then she added, "Is there anything else more than the Bard's works on this call?"

"Oh yes, I was about to get to you on the IRCH. It took me about 14 hours, but I managed to scan the extensive employee database of the entire Space Center." Wade said, "I found one discrepancy."

"You wonder who could it be?" Kim wondered.

"According to my findings, the fake Middleton Space Center employee is actually a con-woman named Grace Larceny." Wade said as he brought a mugshot of the woman to Kim's attention. She was in her mid-20s and stood 5'7. "She is an expert in the art of theft ranging from rare jewelry to scientific devices for money. She is also an expert at 15 styles of kung-fu and is a master of creating fake identities to fool even the toughest security systems."

"So where is she now?" Kim asked.

"As it stands, she could be anywhere in the world!" Wade exclaimed, "She's really good at the fake identity thing! But I can try and track her credit card use and let you know where she is!"

"Please and thank you, Wade!" Kim said as the two of them ended the communication on the Kimmunicator.

(February 15, 2006, 7:30am)

Kim entered Middleton High wearing a long-sleeved button-down croptop, Club Banana khaki baggy overalls with both straps hooked and high-heeled brown boots. Giant gold hoop earrings and a couple of gold CB bracelets completed the outfit.

She met up with Ron at her locker. Ron was in his normal outfit, holding the Romeo and Juliet script.

"Hey, Ron!" Kim exclaimed, waving to him.

"Hey, KP! How did practice with Monique go last night?" Ron asked, waving back.

"It was no big, really. We managed to get through Scenes Four and Five alright." Kim replied. "Wade did beep in on the Kimmunicator last night. He may have found who stole that insect helmet thing."

Ron shuddered, "Again, KP, insects really bring up those bad Wannaweep memories..."

Kim then thought, "The only problem is where the thief will strike next. From what Wade said, she blends well in the shadows. We would have to find her first..."

However, her train of thought was interrupted by Tara. The blonde was in a CB long denim dress and black high heel boots with a long gold necklace.

"Ummm...Kim, don't look at Bonnie and her girls now..." Tara groaned.

"Step aside, losers

"Oh, great..." Kim muttered, "...what is Bonnie...?"

She turned around and found her answer as to what Tara was talking about.

"O...M...G..."

Kim's jaw dropped at the outfits Bonnie, as well as Hope, Ashley A, Ashley B, Ashley T, Amanda and Sarah all wore.

Bonnie led the way, as usual. She was wearing a pink tube top and baggy oversize dark denim Club Banana overalls with both straps undone and a belt to hold them up. Normally, this wouldn't be an issue for Kim since she had seen Bonnie style them in that manner, as much as it annoys the redhead since the brunette cannot utilize the basic need of the straps and that it was a blatant violation of the MHS dress code. What was different this time was that Bonnie was showing off half her pink Club Banana boxers.

As for the three Ashleys that were there, Ashley A and Ashley B were also in the dark denim CB overalls with the bib down, only that both straps were hooked to the bib. Ashley T was in the CB carpenter jeans. They were all in croptops with Ashley A and Ashley T sporting pink while Ashley B was sporting teal. All three of the Ashleys went with the purple CB boxers to show off. While Ashley A and Ashley T were wearing pink sneakers to complete the outfit, Ashley B went for beige boots.

Hope, Sarah and Amanda, were wearing yellow, lavender, and blue croptops, respectively and, like Bonnie, Ashley A and B , were in the CB dark denim overalls with both straps undone and showing off the CB boxers, like the other Mean Cheers. Those three girls also coordinated their sneakers to match their croptops.

They also wore varying amounts of heavy gold and silver jewelry that were extremely shiny.

"What's the matter, K? Jelly over our fetch outfits?" Bonnie grinned.

"B, can't you or your girls EVER hook up overalls properly like I do?" Kim muttered. "Monique would declare this a fashion disaster area!"

"And look like a farmer? So no way!" Bonnie countered, "Unlike you, in which your wardrobe is always the same, me and the girls stayed up at midnight to watch the new Britina-MC Honey duet!"

"Lemme guess, the outfits you and the Mean Cheers are wearing match the ones in the video?" Kim guessed.

"They are so ab-fab!" Bonnie exclaimed while flipping her hair, "Elsa Cleeg said so!"

"I don't care what she says, Rockwaller!" Kim exclaimed, "You know, you're going to be the reason why this district is going to force us to wear school uniforms!"

"Not going to happen, Possible! Not as long as my mom is the head!" Bonnie countered, "You should know this already!"

"Whatever, don't blame me if you do indeed suffer a Ron moment." Kim muttered. "And I gotta get to my first class any ways!"

"Kthanksbye, loser!" Bonnie smirked "See you at cheer practice!"

And so, the two rivals parted ways for their separate classes. The rest of the Mean Cheers also went their separate ways for their first classes.

Bonnie walked with Amanda, for they had US History as their first period class.

"Amanda, I want you to record Scenes 4 and 5 for me for today's practice." she insisted, "But keep the camera hidden from Possible. We still do not want her to notice anything!"

[sharperthewriter]

Chapter 23 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 23 (9:04am, Tuesday, Feb. 14, 2006) The Middleton High readerboard said "Happy Singles Awareness Day" as today was Valentine's Day. In the spirit of the holiday, all of the halls of the school were decked out with red heart paper cutouts as well as cheap Smarty-Mart brand paper cutouts Cupid about to shoot off his arrow.

All of this imagery made Kim very uncomfortable as she was heading towards her locker. Kim was wearing her plaid-shirt and dark denim baggy overalls outfit topped with brown boots. She had a heavy jacket earlier because it was cold outside but she tied it around her waist.

She felt uncomfortable because she saw Tara with Josh and Jessica with Steve and a few other classmates and seniors with their significant others. And in the back of her head, Junior Prom was gonna come in the next three months. Bonnie was going to laugh with all of her other mates on the Wicked Cheers, which consisted of the Ashleys, Hope, Amanda, and Sarah as she comes into the gym…without a signifiant other.

She took a deep breath and opened up her locker as Wade came on.

"Anything yet on that insect helmet?" Kim asked.

"I have not heard any news since it was stolen." Wade replied.

"We'll have to narrow down our list of suspects." Kim said, "We at the very least know that it isn't Drakken and Shego because they are still in prison for the whole mind-control shampoo plot."

"So who would be next?" Wade asked.

"I would guess the next one would be Killigan because he did try and steal the helmet once before from Acuna."

"More than likely so." Wade replied.

"You got any movement on him?" Kim questioned.

"Not as of yet, but I will be the first to inform you if he does." Wade insisted.

"You comp-rock, Wade!" Kim replied with a smile before the screen faded to black.

Monique then came up next to Kim's locker, sporting another long CB dark-denim dress, pink high heel boots, and giant hoop earrings.

"Hey, Kim, you wanted to talk one-on-one? Well, ya girl's here!" the fashionista exclaimed.

"Monique, I'm glad you're here but I prefer the one-on-one girl-only chat away from school." Kim insisted, "Bonnie could have one the Ashleys stationed to spy on us!"

Monique whispered, "Good point. So…your room?"

"Most defs my room!" Kim insisted. "And the trap door locked. We don't want those nosy Tweebs either."

"Agreed." Monique replied. "So you going to head to G-Hall this afternoon for R&J practice?"

"I don't have much of a choice." Kim replied, "Gotta get that other arts credit somehow to graduate. Still it feels weirdish…"

"How come?" Monique asked.

"That the first Romeo and Juliet practice is held…on Valentine's Day…" Kim said, shuddering, "I don't know. Something just feels off."

(4:15pm) Kim went with her backpack with the Romeo and Juliet script inside to the G-Hall auditorium, where the first practice was to be held at. It only seated around 300 people. She took a deep breath.

Okay, Possible. Remember what Mom said before…It's only a play!

Kim opened up the doors, and there was the entire Drama Class there. It was about 25 students, plus the much-feared Glee Three and Barkin.

"You're 15 minutes early, Possible. I like that!" Barkin said with a slight smile, "Now where is Stoppable?"

"He should be here…I hope…" Kim said with a slight worry. Ron was never the best when it came to promptness on time.

(4:28pm)

Ron then made it through the double-doors of the small auditorium.

He also had his script in hand that was, thankfully for him, not missing any pages.

"I had to get through the maze of hallways, but I finally made it!" Ron said, out of breath.

"You made it to practice, Stoppable…" Barkin exclaimed before he muttered, "…barely."

Barkin then turned his attention to the other students.

"Okay, people! Since you are all present with no unexcused absences, the Glee Three will happily cut off time of your practice, just for today! But if you screw up on the lines that are assigned to your scripts, highlighted by my trusty yellow highlighter…" he proclaimed while holding up the yellow highlighter that had been with him for a few years, "…we will make future practices a bit longer!"

"And…" he continued, "…the Glee Three will be watching your every move on stage. So make sure to follow their instructions! As stated before, the performance will be a 25% weighted test to your final grade for this semester."

The other 28 students that were on stage looked at the trio of drama students with wary anxiety. The cold dead eyes of Vancec Ment, Cara Van and Laramaie Tara were all looking at them, waiting to purge any concepts of individualism from their bodies.

"We demand that you act as one!" Vance proclaimed.

"Or you will receive a failing greade from Barkin!" Laramie hissed.

Barkin also gave the scripts of the Romeo and Juliet play to the Glee Three for the first time, since all of the other students had their scripts beforehand.

Those three all opened it for the first time and they were stunned to learn that something odd has happened to their version of the play.

"Mr. Barkin…?" Cara asked.

"What is it now, Van?" Barkin sighed. He wanted to get this overwith as much as the other kids were.

"Certain parts have been blackened out from the play! And the script is in regular modern English instead of Old English!" Cara exclaimed,

"Why is this?"

"A few aspects of the play have…what do you call it…objectionable material in it. Furthermore, the people who spoke Old English have been dead for nearly 800 years." Barkin explained, "The arts division of the school board screened through the script and made the changes in order to meet approval from the school board so that it can be seen and understood correctly by your mamas and papas."

"This is obscene! This is an insult to the work of Shakespeare!" Vance yelled.

"The Immortal Bard must be spinning in his grave at Stratford-upon-Avon in Warwickshire as we speak!" Laramaie shouted.

"We are not going to perform this so-called play approved by the district!" Cara chanted.

Barkin furrowed his glare at the three, for he had a weapon up his sleeve.

"Maybe you can take your 'protest' in front of Mrs. Veronica Rockwaller and her Swatter!"

The mere metnion of the head disciplinarian/superintendent of the MUSD and her infamous wooden paddle that she owned sent a shock of fear through the Glee Three.

"No! Please!" Vance pleaded, his resistance breaking down very quickly.

"We don't want to be paddled!" Cara whined while getting down on her knees and begging for forgiveness.

Laramie cried, "I don't want my buttock to be red!"

Barkin smiled, now that he had utilized fear to its most potent through the MUSD.

"Now you three WILL be using the school-approved version of the play and have the students perform to it!" he demanded.

The three of them acknowled with a mere whimper, "Understood!"

Little did Kim know that Amanda was grinning from the assistant director's chair. She had a vile ace up her sleeve.

[sharperthewriter]

Chapter 24 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 24

(Feb. 14, 2006, 4:37pm)

Amanda came up to Vance then whispered in his ear. All of the other students were backstage

"Remember, I want everything to go as planned in order for the 'protection' to remain for your little Drama club!" she said quietly. "And no mistakes!"

Vance nodded his head in fear. He then regained a confident look in order to mask that fear.

"Now...Drama class, come on out!" he commanded.

All of the students, including Kim and Ron, came onto the stage.

"Now, you spoiled little brats! We are going to be here for the next hour and a half." Vance shouted through the megaphone. "The sooner we can get everything perfect, the sooner we can all leave!"

Kim sneered at the trio, and Amanda, that was going to make the next week for her, Ron, Zita and all the others a living hell...or so she thought.

Vance then explained to his fellow classmates about how the practice of Romeo and Juliet was going to work.

"We are going to do the prologue and Act I for this evening's practice. However, we will add a subsequent act for the practice on the 16th, and going from there to the end where the Montagues and Capulets reconcile with each other. You will start out with the assistance of your scripts."

Cara then continued where her partner left off, once again using the megaphone.

"Next week, we are NOT going to use those scripts because you are going to memorize every single one of your lines that are highlighted in yellow! And by the time the performance ends in two weeks..."

Barkin then got off his cell phone.

"Okay, students, that was the MUSD Maintenence Department. Apparently, the date of the play is also the same day they are going to fumigate the stage." he explained to the students, "Looks like we're going to have to take it to the main auditorium starting next week! The District is going to decide to give an extra two weeks."

Kim gulped hard. The main auditorium seated 3,000 people and it was primarily used for Annual Fundraisers, awards ceremonies, and lectures by Barkin. It was not only the same site where Ron managed to win the talent show from last year over Bonnie, but it was also the same place where the infamous PSA skit of the dangers of drinking and driving that the Stoppable parents performed when Ron was in the sixth grade. In that skit, John's pants fell down in front of the crowd. Kim and Ron covered each other's eyes amidst the sea of laughter. Ron was made the laughingstock for the entire school year, even resorting to wearing a paper bag on his head with holes cut out for the eyes, nose, and mouth. Had it not been for Kim, he would've ended up like Drakken.

Cara then continued, noting the date change.

"Very well..." she muttered, "...four weeks. So in that case, for tonight, we will do the first three scenes."

Kim sighed with relief, thanking that delay from having to get to Scene V of the first act.

"I expect to hear thunderous applause and standing ovations from the crowd! If I ever see as much as a single boo or hiss, expect a solid F from Mr. Barkin's pen and it will be all your fault! So I expect perfection from every single one of you! And...Lights, Camera, and ACTION!"

And so, the chorus began with the prologue, led by Hope, TJ and Gus.

"In the beautiful city of Verona, where our story takes place, a long-standing hatred between two families erupts into new violence, and citizens stain their hands with the blood of their fellow citizens. Two unlucky children of these enemy families become lovers and commit suicide. Their unfortunate deaths put an end to their parents' fe..."

However, Cara, once again, interrupted.

"Wait! Cut...cut...CUT!"

"What is it now?" Barkin groaned. He had no time for shenanigans caused by the students, especially those whose last name was Stoppable.

"I still want to do this in Shakespeare's Olde English! The way it was intended to be!" Cara complained.

"You cannot over-ride the MUSD's decision, Van! Whatever Mrs. Rockwaller says goes!" Barkin proclaimed, "Now continue or else you want a date with her paddle!"

"Fine...thou art very much becoming a teen in the behind, Mr. Barkin..." Cara muttered an Olde English phase under her breath.

Cara then yelled to those that are on the stage, primarily on the trio of Hope, TJ and Gus.

"Now...take it from the top...and action!"

The chrous then repeated their lines, this time without interruption.

"In the beautiful city of Verona, where our story takes place, a long-standing hatred between two families erupts into new violence, and citizens stain their hands with the blood of their fellow citizens. Two unlucky children of these enemy families become lovers and commit suicide. Their unfortunate deaths put an end to their parents' feud. For the next two hours, we will watch the story of their doomed love and their parents' anger, which nothing but the children's deaths could stop. If you listen to us patiently, we'll make up for everything we've left out in this prologue onstage."

Kim thought to herself, clenching her script.

I would rather listen to one of Drakken's boring villainous monologues while being chained to a shark pit rather than subjecting myself to two hours of pure stage torture. But...here goes nothing.

Then she realized that Vince and Jamarcus were going to play Gregory and Sampson respectively to being the very first scene of Act I. So she was spared...for now.

Jamarcus explained, while holding his script as a shielf "Gregory, I swear, we can't let them humiliate us. We won't take their garbage."

Vince teased, "No, because then we'd be garbagemen."

Jamarcus added, "What I mean is, if they make us angry we'll pull out our swords."

"Maybe you should focus on pulling yourself out of trouble, Sampson." Vince replied. They skipped over the obvious part about remarks concerning the Montague women due to the MUSD cuts.

"Pull out your tool now. These guys are from the house of Montague!"

Larry Beae, who voiced, Abraham, then appeared on stage. The trio then continued Scene 1 without much incident, acting out their characters.

Then, Benvolio, played by Felix, came onto the stage. Using his high-tech wheelchair, he had two cables that held a styrofoam sword and shield spraypainted gray.

"Break it up, you fools. Put your swords away. You don't know what you're doing!" he exclaimed.

The scene continued where the "fight" was about to begin with Hope and Gus playing as the citizens.

Then, Capulet and Lady Capulet, played by Rob Reeger and Zita respectively, came onto the stage for their first appearance.

"What's this noise?" Rob exclaimed, "Give me my long sword! Come on!"

"A crutch, you need a crutch! Why are you asking for a sword?" Zita replied.

Rob said, "I want my sword. Old Montague is here and he's waving his sword around just to make me mad!"

Montague and Lady Montague, played by Brick and Liz respectively, came on the stage.

However, Brick was reading the script upside down!

"Uhh..."

The other redhead on the cheer squad sighed and turned his script right-side up.

"Capulet, you villain!" Brick yelled, "Don't stop me! Let me go!"

Liz put her hand in front of Brick's muscular body.

"You're not taking one step toward an enemy!" she yelled.

Cara liked that delivery with a slight smile, She's a natural!

The students continued to deliver their lines for the next five minutes when it came to Ron's first appearance on the stage since the Cowardly Lion incident. Ron, however, was a bit confused. His mind was wandering off to, not surprisingly, Bueno Nacho. Rufus was trying to tug on his shirt for attention.

"Ron?" Kim insisted.

"Earth to Ron!" Kim raised her voice an octave higher while snapping her fingers in front of his face.

"Wha...aww man, KP, I daydreamed that Bueno Nacho had an all-you-can-build Naco buffet." Ron complained.

"Ron, you're up!" Kim insisted, "Mr. Romeo...remember?"

Ron held up his script and said. "Ohhhhh..."

He then entered the stage as Felix was the only one on there when everyone has said their lines.

Barkin though to himself, Oh great...the walking disaster area known as Stoppable appears. Let's see how he screws up this time...

"Good morning, cousin!" Felix explained.

Ron looked through his script, looking at scene 1.

"Ahh...here I am! Is it that early in the day?"

Kim groaned. Ron, please read your highlighted lines...

"It's only just now nine am!" Felix said.

Ron continued to read from his highlighted lines.

"Oh my, time goes by slowly when you're sad. Was that my father who left here in such a hurry?"

As the scene continued to play out between Ron and Felix, Kim noticed that Ron was gaining a bit more confidence. She did not know what it was but he and Felix were making the lines flow.

The redhead gulped even harder, knowing that her first lines were going to come in Scene 3...with Ashley A, no less, as the Nurse.

What is going on here? How is it that Ron is gaining confidence with Felix but I get stuck with the worst of the Ashleys?!

Ron got through Scene 2 with Troy taking on the role as Peter with Felix with almost no issues.

Kim, meanwhile, was sending a text to Monique.

Monique, we so need to do that girl-to-girl talk after tonight's practice.

"I'll go with you. Not because I think you'll show me anything better, but so I can see the woman I love." he said to both Troy and Felix before they exited the stage.

Ron held his script up high.

"I did pretty good on the stage for the first time in months!" the blonde sidekick exclaimed confidently, "And I didn't suffer anything."

As he did so, he was about to sit on a chair...and then heard somethin rip from behind.

A chorus of laughter emitted from almost everyone in the class except for Kim, Monique, Zita, Jessica, Felix and Tara.

Cara exclaimed from the director's chair in Olde English between the laughs.

"Ho, Stoppable, seemeth liketh thee suff'r'd a drop of sorrow in thy gaskins!"

Not surprisingly, he ripped a large tear in his pants, showing off a bit of his Flippies boxers.

"Oh brother..." Rufus squeaked.

"Aww man...why did that happen?" Ron exclaimed.

"I think you should convince your mom to stop buying laundry detergent from Smarty-Mart." Kim said, not laughing out of respect for her best friend.

He sighed, "Aisle 38, right next to the baby items."

Ron sat on the chair, trying to cover the pants hole with his hand.

Now, this was the moment of truth for Kim.

It was now Act 1, Scene 3. And Ashley A was grinning from ear to ear.

Chapter 22 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 22

(4 hours later)

Two GJ hovercraft were flying over the Atlantic, en route to the Senors' island lair. There were about 60 GJ agents, 30 per craft, in addition to Kim and Ron.

Kim and Ron were now in their mission outfits.

"We should be near the Senors' island in a few minutes!" the pilot of the lead craft said over the intercom.

"Good! This should be enough GJ agents to arrest Senior and Junior for the thefts!" Kim insisted. "As well as the henchmen!"

Ron also chimed in, "I'm gonna show them my karate moves! Got them from seeing Bricks of Fury II !"

"Very funny, Ron!" Kim sighed, "We need to keep the Senors occupied long enough so that we can take the artworks back to the Louvre where they belong!"

"Got that, KP!" Ron obliged before Team Possible heard the Kimmunicator beep.

"Hey Wade, what's the sitch?" Kim asked.

"Global Justice is approaching the Senor's island, but Senior has set up a heavily-guarded security system around the island." Wade replied, "I can shut down the entire system for you in a flash!"

"Please and thank you, Wade!" Kim replied, "We don't wanna have to bail out of a burning aircraft...again!"

Wade, from his computer system, typed in a code that overidded the Senors' security system.

"One security system down!" Wade exclaimed.

"You totally lock and load-rock, Wade!" Kim said with a smile.

On the Senors' island, Junior was rubbing another can of Le Goop in his hair when Senior came in.

"Father, do I have cowlick issues?" he askled, looking at himself in the mirror.

"My son, I do not have time to talk to you about your hair problems." Senior hissed, "We have to get these works of art to the black market by tomorrow!"

"But, can we keep at least one of them?" Junior asked, "I do want the Venus De Milo !"

"Fine, Junior." Senior relented before giving a smile "But we are still going to make millions off these arts once we sell them!"

And then a loud explosion rocked both of them.

"What is the meaning of this?!" Senior exclaimed.

"I do not recall this island being on a fault line!" Junior added.

A voice then came from the GJ hovercraft. It was Kim on a jetpack.

"The only thing you're going to sell is license plates...in prison, Senior!" she exclaimed as she landed on the ground.

"Ah, Kim Possible! We meet again!" Senior evily chuckled.

"But where is your sidekick friend? The one who always loses his pants?" Junior asked.

"I'm coming, KP!" Ron insisted as his jetpack was flying around like crazy. It was going up and down and sideways!

But Ron finally managed to land the craft.

"Look at me! I landed feet first!" he exclaimed.

"Wonderful! Too bad that you will not win the day, Miss Possible!" Senior mocked.

"Give those artworks back to the Louvre where they belong, Senior!" Kim exclaimed as GJ agents came in to reinforce Team Possible.

"I hate to break it to you, but the evil villain tradition states that I have to say 'No' to your demands!" Senior taunted.

"In that case, we'll take back those works of art by force!" Kim snarled, getting in a karate pose. "You're hopelessly outnumbered!"

The GJ agents rappeled down from the two hovercraft.

"Well..." Senior snicked as he pulled out a remote, "...two can play at that game, Miss Possible!" He pressed the button and out from two whooshing doors came 40 Henchco henchmen, twenty from each door.

"Sixty-two against forty-two!" Kim snickered while doing the math.

Rufus then muttered from Ron's pants pocket.

"Fine...sixty-three against forty-two!" Kim corrected herself. "You're still outnumbered, Senior!"

"Not quite!" Senior grinned and from the south end of the pool area, a large metal door made a whoosh sound. And out of it came a small evil robot army of 120 robots armed with lasers.

"That would do the trick!" Ron remarked with fear at the robots.

"Now I have the upper hand, Miss Possible!" Senior snickered. "You will surrender to me either the easy way...or the hard way! That was for knocking out my security system earlier."

"Not on your life, Senior!" Kim growled as she got in a karate pose. The evil army was closing in around Team Possible and Global Justice.

Kim got with Wade on the Kimmunicator.

"Wade, we need to stop an evil robot army now!" she insisted.

"Got it, Kim!" Wade replied while typing up specifics on the robots the Senors recently bought. "According to the specs, they used to be break-dancing disco robots. So if I can rewire their hard-drives, it should revert them back to their original state."

"Just do it!" Kim insisted.

The robot army was 15 feet away from them when the bots were stopped in their tracks.

Senior grinned, "Now...capture them!"

The evil robot army, however, did not even move a millimeter.

"Huh?" Senior asked, confused, "Why aren't they moving?"

"I am just as confused as you are, Father!" Junior replied.

And then, the robots started to party around, dancing along to disco tunes from the late-70s.

Senior, at first, was shocked and then turned an angry glare to his son.

"Junior, you did not disclose to me that the evil robot army that you picked out...were formerly disco-dancing robots!"

"But Father, I chose them because once we got rid of Kim Possible, we were going to dance all night long!" Junior complained, before he too started to dance to the beat.

"You are an embarrassment to everything that is villainous!" Senior exclaimed before he also noticed that the robots were starting to short-circuit from the dancing. The robots started to smoke and then all collapsed in a heap of metal.

Team Possible and Global Justice got a sense of relief that all they had to handle were the HenchCo henchmen.

"You disco-rock, Wade!" Kim complimented the tech genius. "Now to take care of business!"

(15 minutes later)

Team Possible and Global Justice routed the HenchCo henchmen, thanks to Kim's fighting skills and Ron's distraction talents as well as GJ's intensive training regimen. The Senors and five of the HenchCo henchmen retreated to an open space in the middle of the living room. Kim, Ron, and the GJ agents have surrounded the Senors and the remaining henchmen in the middle.

"You may have won this battle, Miss Possible..." Senior remarked. "But I can assure you that our war is far from over! Right after I have a very long conversation with my incompetent son!"

"But Father, I wanted to do a little..." Junior said before Senior cut him off.

"Not a word out of you, Junior, especially not the d-word! This is the last time I will allow you to buy an evil robot army!"

"Oh please!" Kim chuckled a little, "Face it, Senior. Your robot army is defeated and the works of art will go back where they belong! You're going to be in jail!"

"Not this time!" Senior replied as he pulled out a remote control and pressed a purple button. White smoke billowed from the walls as it covered the entire room.

Kim, Ron, Rufus, and the GJ agents began to cough. Once the smoke cleared up, the Senors and the remaining henchmen were gone. What happened was that Senior, Junior, and the henchmen escaped in a submarine that could camouflage itself in water and make itself invisible to radar.

"Aww man!" Ron complained, "I hate it when the bad guys do that!"

"Same here, Ron. Well, at the very least, we can return the artworks to the Louvre where it belongs." Kim said. "And we foiled Senior's plan of selling them on the black market and captured almost all the henchmen!"

"And I think we should head back to Middleton! We got a play to rehearse!"

Chapter 21

(5:01pm)

Ron recoiled in fear as he flung the script again.

"EWWW! I have to kiss Kim?" he asked at the top of his lungs.

Rufus nodded his pink head.

"No wait! That's it! I'll call up Mr. Barkin!" he exclaimed as he reached for the extension phone his parents put in his room. Unfortunately for him, he heard to the words of Barkin in his head.

Remember, once I say the names on the list, they cannot be reversed!

"Aww man. Why does Barkin have to live rent-free inside of my head?!" he muttered to himself. "Guess I'll have to call up Kim! I'll have to spread that rumor of Barkin wearing a toupee another time."

Ron picked up the phone and called Kim's number up.

Kim, at the Possible house, picked up the phone on the other end.

"KP! I need your help!"

"Yeah, Ron, I guess you heard the very part where we have to kiss?"

"Rufus showed it to me!" Ron panicked, "I didn't know what to do!"

"Mom talked it over with me!" Kim replied, "She said that I have to remind myself that it is only a play! But you do know about my stage fright ishes!"

"Oh yeah, and my issues with the stage as well, Kim? I don't wanna go through that again!" Ron insisted.

"Ron, we're talking about actually swapping stuff with our lips!" Kim exclaimed. "This wasn't like with the Moodulator incident at the fair a few weeks ago! This is for-real kissing!"

"I think there is only one thing that we can do." Ron stated.

"That's right! We're gonna have to contact The Group!" Kim insisted! _

(1 hour later)

Kim and Ron had contacted Monique, whom in turn contacted Felix, Zita, and Crystal to meet up at Bueno Nacho for dinner. Tara was out to dinner with family at the time and was unable to come.

Kim and Ron also insisted to Felix and Zita to bring their scripts as well.

They ordered their usual set of food: Felix, Monique, and Ron with the chimmeritos and the Nacos while Kim, Zita and Crystal went for taco salads.

Once The Group sat down at their usual booth, they got to the main topic of business, which was the Romeo and Juliet casting decision.

"How could Barkin be this blind?" Kim exclaimed while taking a bite of her taco salad, "He should've known that I am not very good on the stage!" She had to obviously leave out the part that she was kissing Ron, for she was in a group setting. For that part, she wanted to talk to Monique and Monique alone.

"But he said those names off the list!" Felix added, finishing off a chimmerito. "And as he mentioned before, once he said them, there's no way to change them."

But Zita was twirling around her salad, sighing.

"It was supposed to be my role as Juliet." she muttered.

"Truth be told, Zita, I didn't want the role." Kim replied, "I was not the one who wrote my name down on the list!"

"Something just doesn't feel right!" Zita replied.

"I'm agreeing with her, girl!" Monique added while peppering in a Monique-speak term. "Something is way OTL here!"

"OTL?" Crystal asked.

"Over the line!" Kim explained the Monique-speak translation.

"You probably could think that someone could've swapped the roles?" Felix asked.

"It may be a possibility, no pun intended." Kim said, "But we're stuck with what we..."

Before she could even finish her sentence, the four beeps of the Kimmunicator rang.

Kim immediately got it out of her overalls pocket and turned it on.

"Hold that thought, everyone! Hey Wade! What's the sitch?" she asked.

"Major update in the case of the thefts at the Louvre from a few days ago, Kim!" Wade replied "We finally identified who's the thieves are!"

"How did you know?" Kim asked.

"I scanned the ISBN codes on the back of their necks. They are officially HenchCo henchmen bought by..." Wade said before allowing Kim to guess the villain.

Kim thought for a moment and immediately replied.

"Senor Senior, Senior!"

"Bingo! They, and the artwork, should be at their island lair." Wade replied, "I've informed Global Justice as well. Their hovercraft should be here by now..."

Then The Group heard the roar of the engines over Bueno Nacho's roof.

"Wow!" Kim exclaimed, "Talk about good timing."

"The mission uniforms should be on board!" Wade continued.

"What about the play?" Monique asked.

"We'll talk about the Bard later." Kim replied before whispering in Monique's ear, "And I want to talk to you alone: girl-to-girl."

"Gotcha!" Monique replied.

Kim and Ron hurried out of the door before getting into the GJ hovercraft.

Chapter 20 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 20

(4:44pm, Middleton Mall)

Bonnie was in the middle of her usual kelp wrap at The Spa Middleton Mall with serene and calming music when Ashley A and Ashley B came in. Ashley A was wearing a pink croptop, baggy CB dark denim overalls with the left strap hooked and the right strap undone and dangling behind her back and white sneakers. She went with giant gold hoop earrings. Ashley B went with a tube top and baggy CB jeans with a belt.

"Hey, um, B?" Ashley A asked.

"Can it wait, AA? I am in the middle of my weekly time of peace and serenity!" Bonnie muttered.

"It's about Possible and Stoppable." Ashley A replied.

Bonnie instructed one of the spa's employees to turn off the music. The employee did so.

She removed the cucumbers from her eyes.

"What about those two?" Bonnie sneered.

"They got the roles of Juliet and Romeo, respectively!" Ashley B grinned.

"And how did Possible react?" she questioned, "Remember, I haven't taken my two arts elective classes yet required for graduation so I'm not in there."

Ashley A began to chortle.

"She gave a loud NOOOO before Barkin gave her detention for disrupting the class!"

She and Ashley B began to laugh. Bonnie, upon hearing the news of her rival getting detention, also joined in on the laughter.

"Oh man...that is quite funny!" Bonnie replied as she finished her laugh.

Taking several deep breaths, she added, "Man, I just cannot wait until she wears that Juliet costume! She would look like a total dork!"

"So what's the next part of the plan?" Ashley A asked.

"We'll see how Possible handles her lines first..." Bonnie said, "...and go from there. Now can you leave? I still need to continue my kelp wrap, thank you very much!"

Ashley A and Ashley B both nodded their heads in agreement with each other.

(4:51pm)

Back at the Possible house, Kim glared at the script with Ann and James looking at their daughter.

"I don't know how to approach this!" she said, "This is defs the hardest thing I had to do at school."

James was nervous as well, but for different reasons.

"Uhhh...Kimmie-cub, I hate to say this but I think this would be your mom's area of expertise. So I'll leave you two alone." he insisted.

"Where are you gonna go, James?" Ann asked.

"Helping with the boys with their baking soda volcano." James replied.

Both Ann and Kim said "Uh-oh" at the same time as James exited downstairs from Kim's loft room.

"I just...don't know what to do, Mom!" Kim exclaimed to Ann. "This whole sitch is so complicated!"

"I did remember doing a Shakespeare play in high school." Ann replied, "Though you only needed one art credit for graduation at the time. And that was before I met your father."

"What did you do for that? I'm just curious to know!" Kim questioned.

"At the time, I had a very huge crush of Bobby Lane in high school. And he got one of those roles. I had to think to myself: It's only a play! It's only a play!" Ann said.

"Did you get a good grade?" Kim asked.

"I did. Managed an A- for the course!" Ann replied, scooting closer to Kim.

"That's good, at the very least." Kim said, "But can you imagine that the kisser is the best friend that you've known for the past almost 13 years of your life?"

"I...couldn't imagine that." Ann said, "Look, I know that you and Ronald are not a...how do the kids say these days...thing, but you and Ron need to get through this together as friends!"

"You're right about that part, Mom. But two things that worry me is A) how Ron is going to perform on the stage because of the Cowardly Lion incident and B) how is he going to react to me and him...you know...kissing. Not in a BF/GF kind of way, of course!"

(4:56pm)

At the Stoppable house, Ron was excited that he was going to play a non-tree related role for the first time since Wizard of Oz last year. He flung the script onto the bard.

"Can you believe it, Rufus! I am going to be Romeo!" he exclaimed for excitement. "For the first time, I won't be stuck in the bathroom for 30 minutes trying to remove a tree costume with the help of Kim and the fire department!"

"Uhhh..." Rufus was nervous because of the fact that his owner had note even opened up the script yet.

"This calls for a celebration, ol' buddy!" Ron added, "And you know what that means!"

"Naco?" Rufus asked, still unsure.

"That's right...hey, you're not excited that I got that play of Romeo!" Ron gasped at the naked mole rat's reaction.

Rufus sighed and rushed up to Ron's bed. He opened up the script and pointed to the list of which characters the students were playing. He first pointed to Romeo, as Ron, and then to Juliet with Kim's name next to it.

"I still do not know where you're getting at?" Ron asked, still perplexed.

Rufus only sighed harder and flipped the pages to the part of the script with Act I Scene V...the very moment Romeo and Juliet first kiss.

Ron reacted in sheer horror upon reading that line.

"AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"

[sharperthewriter]

Chapter 16 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 16

(10:28pm)

Bonnie and Ashley A were in the former's bedroom. They had swapped their pajamas for black shirt, black jeans, black sneakers, black eye masks, and a beanie. They also had flashlights.

Of course, they weren't going to steal anything. They were going to make Kim and Ron fools of themselves in front of a crowd of people.

Bonnie looked at her cell phone for the time.

"Now...we swipe the skeleton key!" she said quietly.

"Do you know where your mom keeps it?" Ashley A asked.

"Of course I do!" Bonnie said, "I'm not that stupid! Let's put Operation Dueling Families in action now."

Ashley A nodded her head as the two girls snuck out of the room. They headed toward the master bedroom, tiptoeing on their way.

"Where's your pit bull?" Ashley A asked with a bit of concern. She was speaking of Queenie, the Rockwallers' pit bull that was notorious for making Ron's khakis his personal chew toy and has chased Rufus on a number of occasions in the Rockwallers' backyard. But Rufus always outsmarted the dog.

"Oh, he's asleep in the kennel, AA." Bonnie replied quietly, "Our main focus is that key!"

Ashley A opened the door to the master bedroom slowly as the Rockwaller parents continued to snore on the bed. They were still under the effects of the sleeping powder. Donald's gun belt was wrapped on the bedpost on his side of the bed.

Bonnie simply pointed to the skeleton key located on the knob of the top drawer of Veronica's nightstand.

"There it is!" Bonnie whispered.

"I'm on it!" Ashley A replied quietly as she tiptoed her way on the carpet while not making a sound that would wake them up.

Donald, while snoring, passed gas and belched very loudly in bed.

Ashley A was tempted to say something but did not. She held her breath, took the key and put it on her neck, and went back to Bonnie.

Bonnie quickly closed the door so as not to disturb her parents further.

"Alright, B. I got it!" Ashley A grinned while touching the metal of the key. "And can you ask your dad next time to cut it on the chili cheese dogs?"

"Good, now call up Ashley Q to bring that security cam device of hers to Mad Dog Park." Bonnie insisted, "We need to do that swap as planned now! I'm gonna get my sneakers on!"

"I'll get the car warmed up!" Ashley A cackled, twirling her car keys. _

(30 minutes later)

The cars that had the Ashleys in them, as well as Hope, Sarah and Bonnie, arrived at Mad Dog Park. It was a medium-sized park with four playgrounds on-site as well as a picnic area and a half-mile walking track and, to the benefit of the girls, it also has some large trees as well. It was across from the school right next to the football stadium.

They all assembled at a clearing where they were about 200 yards from the stadium. The clearing connected a pathway to Mad Dog Stadium. The stadium itself usually was fenced off and locked after 8pm.

All of the girls in Bonnie's group had dark warmups, shirts and ski masks as well to conceal their identities.

"AQ, have you brought the device like I asked?" Bonnie questioned.

Ashley Q brought along a device that was shaped like a video camcorder from the early 1990s.

"It's a little bulky, but it should do the trick." she explained.

"So what are the specs of it?" Bonnie asked.

"It can knock out not only security cameras but also alarm systems as well within a 5-mile radius." Ashley Q explained about the machine, "But there's one flaw to this."

"Oh great!" Bonnie complained, "What flaw are we talking about?"

"The effects of the machine will last for only 25 minutes." Ashley Q explained, "After that, the systems will come back online."

"In other words, we have to break in the school, get to G-Hall, make the switch on the Romeo and Juliet casting sheet, and get out before the timer hits 0." Bonnie replied, summarizing their plan.

"That's the general gist of it, yes." Ashley Q replied. "Once that timer starts, there's no turning back."

"You still got the skeleton key, AA?" Bonnie then asked, turning to Ashley A.

Ashley A grinned, twirling the skeleton key. "One MUSD skeleton key accounted for!"

"Good. Now once we unlock the gates, we need to lock them back." Bonnie insisted to her girls, "So that no trace of us is left behind or ANYTHING that Possible can pick up!"

The other girls nodded their heads in agreement with Bonnie.

Ashley Q set the device for 25 minutes.

"Ready...set..."

The girls all put on their ski masks with holes cut open for their eyes, nose, and mouth.

"GO!"

The timer started to count down from 30 minutes as the device shut off all the security cameras of not only the school but also within a 5-mile radius. Included in that radius was the Middleton Space Center.

(25:00...24:59...24:58...24:57...)

Bonnie and the girls went along the pathway and first rushed up to the locked gate of the football field.

"AA...now would be the time for me to have that skeleton key!" Bonnie insisted, holding out her hand.

"Gotcha, B!" Ashley A replied quickly, handing Bonnie the key. True to its meaning, the skeleton key unlocked the lock to the gate. The girls lined up in single file with the Ashleys in the front, followed by Bonnie, Hope, and Sarah. They all snuck across the track that was on the South end zone to the gate connecting to the field house. Again, Ashley A used the skeleton key to unlock that gate.

(23:34...23:33...23:32...)

The girls snuck across the parking lot that led to the west end of the school when they came to the locked door leading into A-Hall. Ashley A used the key once again and the door was unlocked. The girls all went in and turned on their flashlights, for everything was turned off.

They could feel the prize getting closer and closer, but they only had a finite amount of time before the security camers would come back on.

"So where is G-Hall anyways?" Sarah asked.

(21:31...21:30...21:29)

"On the east end of the school. Where I-Hall and J-Hall intersect." Bonnie replied in a whisper.

"Wait, what happened to H-Hall?" Sarah then questioned.

"That's the detention wing, duh!" Bonnie snarked, "We cheerleaders don't do detention! And that's what we're trying to avoid."

"Ugh...this is going to wear out the soles of my shoes." Ashley T complained. "Curse the people who constructed this school!"

"I'd rather curse the population boom of Middleton." Bonnie retorted, "Now come on, girls. Let's get to that list!"

(15:14...15:13...15:12)

The girls finally made their way to the east end of the school and to G-Hall at the intersection of I-Hall and J-Hall. The array of flashlights from the girls were all over the place.

"B, do you know where that list is?" Ashley B asked.

"AB, I've been up and down this school multiple times." Bonnie boasted, "It should be at Miss Tudor's room, G211."

"Let's get there!" Ashley A insisted.

The other girls nodded their heads and went up the stairwell to the classroom on the other side of the hall.

(13:04...13:03...13:02)

Bonnie shone on her flashlight onto room G-211 and right next to it was the goal she had been looking for.

"There it is! The Romeo and Juliet cast list!" Bonnie insisted. The flashlight shone on a piece of paper of the cast and crew for Romeo and Juliet in pencil.

"Girls, do you have any pencils on hand?" Bonnie asked the other girls in her group.

"I have a few in my purse here!" Ashley Q replied, giving Bonnie two pencils.

"Alright...lemme make the appropriate changes!" Bonnie grinned, grabbing the pencils. She started to make the two most important changes on the sheet. She also erased and replaced a couple more names in certain roles.

"There! That should do the trick!" Bonnie said. "Now, let's get out of here before the security cameras come back on!"

After they had executed that part of the plan, the girls got out of the school in the same manner they came in, all the while locking the doors and locks to the gates of the football field.

They came back to the clearing where Ashley Q had set the device earlier.

"So how are we on time?" Bonnie asked.

Ashley Q stopped the device.

"We made it with 45 seconds to spare!"

"Perfect!" Bonnie cackled in glee, "Now let's see how Possible and Stoppable will react!"

Chapter 14 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 14

Kim and Ron emerged from the staircase and, indeed, they found the plaid dirigible hovering 100 feet above the ground. And standing at the doorway was, indeed, the mad golf villain.

"Duff Killigan!" Kim exclaimed, "The World's Deadliest Golfer!"

"Aye, lassie!" Killigan grinned, "Ye can say it again if ye will! And the young blonde lad...whose name slips me mind."

"Aww...come on, Duff!" Ron groaned, "My name only has three letters!"

"What do you want this time?" Kim asked, demanding him.

"Tis is the insect helmet that I came fer!" Killigan replied, swinging his gol club and setting another one of his exploding golf balls. "Once I take ye out, that is, with me golf skills!"

"You are not going to get your meaty, grubby hands on it!" Kim exclaimed, determining to stop him.

"Nay, lassie. I won't be the one usin' that wee device!" Killigan countered, "I'm only in it for the money!"

"Then you aren't going to get a single penny!" Kim taunted.

Killigan yelled, "FORE!", and swung the exploding golf ball with his club. Kim and Ron both immediately dodged the ball before it exploded.

"And how are you going to take the helmet?" Kim taunted again, "You're only in your dirigible."

"Nay, not true this time, lassie!" Killigan grinned. He snapped his fingers and ten HenchCo henchmen appeared before him. They rappelled their ropes to the ground.

"Half of ye, take care of the lad and lassie. Th' other half of ye, get that helmet!"

Five of the henchmen went down to try and take care of Team Possible. The other five went to the emergency staircase in an attempt to take the IRCH.

Seeing the split, Kim exclaimed to Ron. "Ron, you distract the henchmen! I'll make sure the other henchmen do not get that helmet!"

Kim rushed behind the henchmen to the stairwell heading back to the lab. Ron sighed as he and Rufus did a variety of karate moves before the former began running around and flapping around. Rufus got into one of the henchmen's shirt. The henchman began to laugh as he felt ticklish. Ron ran around in circles and three of the henchmen could not get to him as they keep on running into each other. The fifth henchman tried to get Rufus but got knocked out by the ticklish henchman with a single punch instead.

And the five henchman that tried to get the IRCH instead all ran in terror as they came back empty-handed.

"Retreat! Retreat!" cried the lead henchman in that group as Kim emerged, smirking.

"You gotta do a better job than that, Killigan!" Kim teased.

Killigan got obviously frustrated by the incompetence of the henchmen, "I am gonna give Jack Hench a piece of me mind!"

The henchmen all got up the ropes in cowardice, heading back to the dirigible.

"Tis isn't over, lassie!" Killigan growled. He glared at Team Possible for a moment and then back at his defeated henchmen. "I will get that wee device!"

Killigan drove off his dirigible into the night in defeat as Kim stood proudly.

"Well, that took care of him!" she laughed as the dirigible became nothing more than a speck in the moonlit sky.

"Thank you again, Miss Possible!" Acari exclaimed, emerging from the emergency staircase with the helmet. "Thank you for saving both us and the IRCH!"

"We owe you a debt of gratitude! " Luna added, "You've shown tremendous skill and bravery!"

"It was no big! Killigan should really work on his aim next time!" Kim chuckled a little.

"And I helped as being the distraction!" Ron chimed in.

"Yep! Yep!" Rufus agreed, nodding his head.

Then she heard the familiar beeps of the Kimmunicator.

Kim beeped in it.

"Go, Wade!"

"Hey, Kim!" Wade replied while typing on his keyboard, controlling his array of computers, "I've got good news and I got bad news."

"Okay...give us the good news first." Kim said.

"I hate it when people say that phrase!" Ron complained.

"The good news is that Killigan and his henchmen have been repelled." Wade said.

"So, what's the bad news?" Ron asked.

"The bad news is that before Killigan's strike, his blimp launched at least 50 EMP golf balls to knock out the security system at not just this insectarium but also all other insectariums Professor Acari owns! "

"And that means...?" Ron questioned, seeking clarification.

"Without the security systems at my insectariums, my IRCH is not safe here!" Acari explained, "I need the IRCH for the Robotics Convention in the next couple of weeks in Las Vegas! And I won't be able to win the grand prize without it!"

"How much are we talking about here?" Kim asked.

"If everything works perfectly with the IRCH, it would be worth $3 million. Plus $2 million for the prize money!" Acari explained the nature of the contest.

Ron whistled, "Imagine what you can do with that moo-lah!" He then began to drool over the ideas.

Kim glared at her best friend.

"Ron, we agreed. No more money-drooling fantasies!" she groaned. "Remember? Your parents set aside a great portion of any incoming Naco royalties for college."

"That is, if I get into college, KP." Ron said, "My grades are kinda on the C/D border."

"Don't worry. We'll handle it once we get to that point." Kim said to Ron before turning back to Acari.

The redhead then made a suggestion.

"What about my dad's place of work?" Kim asked, "Since he is a rocket scientist, the facility has a lot of heavy security, especially after what Monkey Fist did when he captured Frederick."

"He's one of only two monkeys I actually like." Ron said.

"The IRCH will be safe there for the time being." Kim said with confidence.

"Thank you, Miss Possible. I will inform the colleagues at my insectarium at Colorado Springs to try and pick up the helmet after the two-week period!" Acari gleefully said.

"It's no big!" Kim replied. "Just have them call me and beep me if they wanna reach me!"

(Sat. Feb 11, 2006, 9am)

Over at the Middleton Space Center, Kim, Ron and James were walking down a long corridor with a couple of other rocket scientists that worked there, one male and one female. Kim was holding the IRCH in her hands. It weighed around 20 pounds.

"Thanks for letting me use the Space Center's vault to hide this helmet thing!" Kim exclaimed to her dad.

"And thanks for the free food in the break room!" Ron replied, as he and Rufus were snacking on nachos that he got from there.

"Anytime, you two!" James said, "This security system is the strongest one that is west of the Mississippi! It's not exactly Fort Knox, but it's pretty darn close!"

"It has a laser grid, security cameras, guard dogs, guards, and a system of traps!" James said about the system, "No enemy is going to get through it. And did I also mention that the vault door is reinforced with concrete to go along with the fact that the steel is 11 inches thick?"

"That should serve as the perfect hiding place for Acari's helmet." Kim said, giving the helmet to one of the security guards so that he could safely store it in the vault.

Once the vault was locked up, James then asked Kim, "So...now that today is Saturday, what do you wish for the Possible family to do since it is your turn to choose?"

Kim replied, "Since the Tweebs' choice of laser tag almost didn't end well, I think we'll stick on the safe side with bowling over at Doghouse Alley."

"Are we gonna use guardrails this time?" Ron asked, for he was notorious for scoring gutterballs at the alley.

James took out a coin and said. "We'll simply decide on a coin toss, Ronald. Heads, we use the guardrails. Tails, we go the manly way!"

He flipped a coin...and it landed on heads.

"Alright, Ronald..." James sighed, "...the rails win!"

"Boo-yah!" Ron exclaimed his most famous catchphrase, "I'm gonna finally knock down some pins tonight!"

Chapter 13 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 13

(30 minutes later)

Acari and his assistants took Team Possible to his insectarium on the outskirts of Los Angeles in an SUV. In the front doors of the insectarium stood a woman about five feet, seven inches tall. She was in her mid 20s and had blonde hair. She was wearing a white button-down blouse, green vest and a purple dress with a gold chain necklace to go along with her labcoat.

Acari, his assistants, Kim and Ron got out of the vehicle.

"Miss Possible, I would like for you to meet my head assistant of all my insectariums. Meet Luna Acitas, a recent graduate of Oxford." Acari said, introducing his main assistant. "She has been a part of our lovely insect family for the past three months after Charles Yapsby was let go."

"Hello, everyone!" Luna said in a posh British accent.

"Pleased to meet you, Professor Acitas!" Kim said kindly, shaking her hand, "My name's Kim Possible. And this is my friend/sidekick Ron Stoppable!"

"Yep!" Ron said, shaking Luna's hand. "You know, I assist in saving the world, being the distraction and all. And this is Rufus!"

Rufus popped out of Ron's cargo pocket and saw Luna with his beady eyes.

"Hey, there! You look cute!" Luna complimented.

"Thanks!" Rufus squeaked for joy.

"Ah yes! I have heard much of you, Miss Possible!" Luna replied to Kim, "You were the one who read my master thesis on the perception of insects!"

"I read it twice, actually." Kim replied, "My favorite part was the one about the moths."

"Are you kidding? They are so my most favorite insect of all time!" Luna exclaimed for joy. "I've been fascinated with them ever since childhood. It eventually became my major but I wanted to minor in fashion design but..."

"What happened?" Kim asked.

"Let's just say that the fashion world is a bit cut-throat." Luna replied, "Instead, I minored in Shakespeare studies."

Luna then added, "You have heard of my father, right?"

"The multi-million dollar CEO of a tech firm, Ben Acitas?" Kim replied, "Yeah, I've saved him once before from the likes of Professor Dementor a couple months ago."

"Not me!" Ron huffed.

"What's with your sidekick here about insects?" Luna asked.

"Long story short, he has severe issues with them." Kim explained.

"I can see that." Luna said.

Turning to Acari, she then asked. "So what's the sitch about what's going on?"

"Oh yes, I was just getting to that part, Miss Possible." Acari replied. "Professor Acitas, can you escort them to the underground lair of the insectarium so that I can show her something?"

"It won't be a problem!" Luna walked to a small statue of a beetle. She opened a hidden panel and pressed some buttons on the panel.

"You need a code to access this part of the facility." Acari replied. "I learned that from the robotic tick theft."

"Always thinking one step ahead, Professor?" Kim asked.

"I'm getting better at it!" Acari replied as the door opened to a flight of stairs that was lit with lights on the steps. The walls were very narrow.

"Okay, everyone. Just please watch your step!" he then warned the group. Acari began the descent first, followed by Luna and then Kim and Ron. They used the lights on the stairs as a guide to prevent them from tripping and falling.

Once they got to the bottom, Acari then flipped a switch that activated all the lights in the underground lair of the insectarium.

"I do not usually come down here that often." he explained, "Can you imagine how much the electric companies charge in California? It is insane!"

"It'd be sticker shock, KP!" Ron exclaimed.

"I would have to sell a kidney!" Kim added.

They then came across some of Acari's clothes, which were very muddy and dirty.

"Do these clothes ever get washed?" Kim asked.

"Sometimes, Miss Possible." Acari replied, "Getting to some of the rarest insects of the world does require me to get my hands dirty."

"And hence, the reason why we have to buy a lot of detergent." Luna added. "The Professor does care a lot about his insect research."

"Indeed I do!" Acari said. "It is very important for me, with a minor in robotic engineering, to generate miniaturized versions of the real insects. And speaking of which..."

Acari then pressed a blue button on a nearby table. It was revealed to be a metallic robot helmet emerging on the top of a pedestal.

"This is the culmination of all my work!" Acari explained, "It is an Insect Robot Controller Helmet or the IRCH for short. It can control any type of robotic insect from any of the other 40 insectariums that are in my name across the globe."

He then continued, "It can select which robotic insect to control and, once selected, it woud obey the wearer's every command."

"How many insect robot types are on this helmet thing?" Kim asked while looking at the helmet.

"There are about 70 types." Acuna replied with the number.

He also added, "Of course, it would be disasterous if it fell in the wrong hands."

Then the four beeps of the Kimmunicator went off.

"Wade, what's the sitch?" she asked her famous phrase.

"Kim, we've recently gotten word from GJ that an unauthorized person is within LA airspace. He is currently flying a plaid dirigible and headed towards the insectarium!"

"A plaid dirigible..." Kim muttered to herself before she heard a tap-tap-tapping coming down the steps.

The object that came down the stairs was a golf ball.

"Ooooooh! A golf ball! Mind if I look at it?" Acari asked, approaching the golf ball.

Kim then heard beeping emitting from the ball and gasped.

"Professor Acari! Professor Acitas! Get down now!" she yelled.

Acari and Luna reacted quickly and ducked behind a nearby table. The beeping stop and a small explosion destroyed the staircase to the lab.

"There is only one villain in my rogues' gallery that uses exploding golf balls as his primary weapon!" Kim exclaimed, "Professor Acari, you get Professor Acitas to safety. Me and Ron will go after...Duff Killigan!"

"But how, KP? The staircase is shot!" Ron questioned, pointing to the damaged staircase.

"There is an emergency staircase in the back of the lab." Acari explained. "It will take you outside!"

"Then that's where we are going to go!" Kim insisted. "Come on, Ron! Let's find where Killigan is!"

"Right behind ya, KP!" Ron replied as they bothe went to the back of the lab. They accessed the emergency staircase.

Chapter 12 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 12

(Friday, Feb. 9, 2006, 3:45pm)

"Well, I'm glad that's overwith!" Kim exclaimed, stretching her arms as she, Ron, and Monique all exited Middleton High one last time this week. While Kim and Monique were in their signature baggy Club Banana dark-denim overalls with both straps hooked with yellow and pink croptops respectively, Ron was in his usual outfit.

"Another school week of toil in the books!" Ron exclaimed, "I cannot suffer through another quiz boring 19th-century book by some long-dead obscure author in English Lit anymore!"

"You thinkin' what I'm thinkin' you two after a lot of tests?" Monique asked.

Both Kim and Ron replied, "Bueno Nacho!"

"OTN! On the nose!" Monique exclaimed with her famed Monique-speak. She got out her bicycle helmet as did both Kim and Ron. They had taken bikes to school in lieu of the bus all week long, though Ron had his share of scrapes on his knees.

(4:19pm)

The trio ride their bikes to Bueno Nacho, for it also had a bike rack near the entrance. Once they managed to lock their bikes to the rack, they went inside.

Ron got his standard Naco Night order, Kim had the usual taco salad with Caesar on the side, and Monique had the same thing Ron had.

"So what is going to be the first thing on the list for this weekend?" Kim asked while getting out a sheet of paper.

"Well...the usual rental tree costume from the costume shop downtown." Ron said, "And this time, it will have a zipper in the front and not in the back."

"Okay...one rental tree costume." Kim said before she added.

"Oh yeah, I also need to add in the fact that JP Bearymore had just recently added a Zombie Mayhem II machine in the arcade! And it is bon-diggety badical!"

"And a box of tissues."

"What for?" Monique wondered.

"That I'll prove to the Glee Three that we will pull off the best Romeo and Juliet so hard that they are going to be crying at the end of the performance!" Kim insisted. "Hence the tissue boxes."

"We got that added to the list." Ron said, "What else do we need?"

"Maybe some aspirin in time to handle the headaches for Mom's parents' anniversary." Kim suggested, "Seventeen cousins is so hard to keep track of over a weekend, thank you very much!" She also kept in mind some of the weirdness of those cousins that would make even Larry look sane.

Then, the Kimmunicator beep began to sound.

Instinctively, Kim got the Kimmunicator out of her overall side pocket.

"Hey, Wade! What's the sitch?"

Wade explained the reason for the beep-in.

"Hey, Kim. You got a hit on the site from Professor Acari."

"Acari...the bug-expert guy!" Kim guessed.

"Mind if I patch you through to his message?" Wade requested.

"Please and thank you!" Kim replied with a smile. Wade typed rapidly on his computer to access the video to one of Acari's insectariums.

"Good evening, Miss Possible! I definitely would need your help at my insectarium on the outskirts of Los Angeles. There is something of great importance that I need to show you!"

"So we're gonna visit the insect guy again after what happened with the tick bomb thing Drakken had on your nose, KP?" Ron asked.

"Most definitely so, Ron." came Kim's reply.

Ron shuddered, "Insects! I so cannot stand insects!"

"Even a harmless ol' ladybug?" Monique asked.

"My issues with them stretch back further than Wannaweep, Monique!" Ron said. "Even within the Stoppable abode, my hate of those blood-sucking insects runs very deep!"

Kim sighed before saying to Wade, "Can you give us a ride?"

"Working on it right now!" Wade insisted.

(1 hour later)

A Global Justice craft picked up Team Possible as they headed en route for Los Angeles. Both im and Ron, of course, were now in their mission outfits.

Agent Flynn Cognito was flying the craft. Kim was in the co-pilot.

"Thanks for the lift, Agent Cognito!" Kim said in a nice voice.

"It's the least I can do since you save me on that mission in Switzerland last month!" Agent Cognito replied.

"It's no big! A little help from my hot curling iron that can melt snow, duct tape, and a rope would do the job." Kim said before turning on the Kimmunicator.

Ron, in the meantime, was stuck between two buff male Global Justice agents.

"Uhh...little help here?" he exclaimed.

There was also one other mission that was also nagging at Kim's mind.

"Wade, has there been any update from the thefts at the Louvre?"

"I was able to pull off something from the henchmen's shirts." Wade said as he pulled up the security photo on the Kimmunicator.

Kim looked at it and said, "Looks like some sort of code. Can you try and analyze it?"

"I can do, but it may take me between 24 to 36 hours." Wade replied, "I'll give you an update once the analysis is complete! And by the way, you should be over LA right about...now!"

"You analytically rock, Wade!" Kim grinned as she put away the Kimmunicator and activated her jetpack and infrared goggles.

"Let's jet, Ron!" she exclaimed.

"Right behind ya, KP!" Ron replied as he got unstuck from being in-between the Global Justice agents. He too activated his jetpack.

"Ready for this, Rufus?" he then asked the naked mole rat.

Rufus, from Ron's pants pocket, put on his goggles. "Ready!" he squeaked excitedly.

Team Possible jumped out of the plane. The 10,000 feet ride went smoothly for Kim as she landed on the ground. For Ron, however, he spun in a variety of circles and triangles in the air. Rufus squeaked in horror and closed his eyes. Fortunately, for the both of them, they landed on the ground.

"Well, that wasn't one of my worst landings." Ron replied.

"I'd give you a medal for it, Ron!" Kim chuckled a little before Professor Acari came to her, along with a couple of his assistants.

"I'm glad you can make it, Miss Possible!" Acari replied with glee.

"It's no big, Professor!" Kim laughed, "I'm glad we recovered the robotic tick back to you after Drakken nearly blew off my nose in freshman year."

Ron shuddered, "KP, you do know I still have tick issues..."

"What's with your sidekick?" Acari asked, pointing to Ron.

"Bad summer camp experience, don't ask to him." Kim suggested.

"Anywho, I should take you and my assistants to my insectarium." Acari replied, "There, you can see why I contacted your site!"

Chapter 11 of Roneo and Kimliet

Chapter 11 (Feb. 9, 2006, 1:14pm) Kim and Ron entered into Drama Class with Vance, Laramie, and Cara all giving a watchful eye to them.

  "You'd better bring your A-game, Possible!" Cara said with her hawkish stare at Team Possible.

"And you'd better direct a performance that is worthy of us or else Shakespeare would spin so fast in his gave that he would power the entire Stratford-upon-Avon area for 200 years!" Vance added.

"Yeah...what they said!" Laramie replied without thinking of a comeback in her head.

"Look, you three. If I can lead the Middleton High cheer squad to a state title at the CHSAA Spirit Championships a  month ago..." Kim retorted back.

Ron then interrupted her. "...while fighing off Dementor's evil robot army that I helped stopped by accidentally snatching the remote from him and played around with it."

"I recall that one." Kim smirked, "Made all the robots malfunction and crashing into each other!"

"Lots of twisted metal everywhere!" Ron chimed in.

Kim then turned her attention back to the Glee Three.

"If I can go through all of that and save the world, then I can handle Romeo and Juliet with so no prob!" the redhead said confidently before she and Ron took her seat. "Look up my motto!"

Barkin then approached the rest of the class.

"Since Miss Tudor is still in the Middleton High concussion protocol, I would like to again remind you that the deadline for your roles will be on Monday afternoon at 2pm." he proclaimed.

Kim raised her hand.

"Yes, Possible?" Barkin questioned.

"Mr. Barkin, who currently has the roles of Romeo and Juliet?" Kim asked.

"The role of Juliet is currently held by Flores and the role of Romeo is currently held by Reeger." Barkin said, pointing to Zita and Rob Reeger, the Middleton High class clown.

Kim muttered, for Reeger was infamous for playing pranks on teachers, and he had teamed up with Bonnie on a couple of occassions to play pranks on her and Ron.

He then continued, "As it stands, that is going to be the Romeo and Juliet that the Glee Three and you must direct if you are to make a good grade on this, Possible!" Kim groaned, because she knew what trouble Reeger would bring to the stage. ________________________________________________________________________ (3:37pm) Kim finalized the cheer routine by landing perfectly on her feet. She had just jumped from a cheer pyramid. Bonnie watched from her spotter routine to make sure no one got injured, but she had something else in mind.

Ron, as was the agreement with the other members of the MHS cheer squad, did his Mad Dog routine of spraying the foam 50 feet away from the other cheerleaders.

"And that was great, girls!" Kim exclaimed as the cheer pyramid disassembled. 

"We'll take a break and be back at it on next Monday!"

Ron then came up to Kim.

"Hey, Ron!"

"Hey, KP! How did the Mad Dog do?"

"Totally awesome as always!" Kim smiled at her best friend.

"It's what the Ron-man can do!" Ron said while removing the Mad Dog mask. 

"Not to mention all the pushups I did for the football team last year." It was a Middleton High tradition that the Mad Dog mascot had to do pushups every time Middleton scores, be it a safety or a touchdown. "Almost had to go to the chiropractor after that..."

"So, wanna head over to Bueno Nacho right now?" he then asks, "I heard that BN HQ has unveiled a five-alarm Diablo sauce!"

"I would like to see you and Rufus perform a fire-eating contest as of the moment, but we gotta head on home first." Kim replied, "Dad's gotta do the reservations for the hotel we're gonna stay at for Mom's parents' anniversary in Nebraska."

"You got a point there." Ron added.

"Yep. I'm gonna go ahead and change and we'll head out of the gym together." Kim said as she and the other girls went into the locker room. Ron headed to the boys' locker room to change.

"You hear that, Rufus! We're gonna have our Diablo-sauce drink contest!" Ron grinned at his naked mole rat. "The loser will have to sleep on the couch tonight!"

Rufus, from Ron's pocket, chittered with a laugh, "You're on!" Bonnie, Ashley A, and Ashley B smirked at each other. They agreed earlier to meet at around 4:30pm in ________________________________________________________________________

(4:12pm)

Kim came out of the gym, now in her white croptop, Club Banana dark denim baggy overalls, and white sneakers. She, of course, had both straps hooked. Ron was in his usual outfit with Rufus in his pants pocket. Kim had also called her mom earlier to pick them up.

Unknown to them, Ashley A was on the side of the gym, looking at them with a smirk

"OK, girls, the coast is clear!" Ashley A insisted with a whisper when she saw Kim and Ron being picked by by Ann in the Possible minivan, "Let's go to the Rockwaller house!" Bonnie had earlier told the Ashleys, as well as Hope and Rebecca, that 4:30pm would be the the perfect time to meet at her house because of the fact that Veronica usually doesn't get home until 6pm and Donald doesn't get home from his shift at the police department until 6:30pm, since he works the normal shift of 8am-6pm on Mondays and Fridays. Donald worked the evening shifts on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays at MPD and on Saturday mornings.

In other words, this scheduling gave Bonnie ample opportunity to plan out her plot to get to the Romeo and Juliet cast list before Monday. Since all the Ashleys were seniors, they had their drivers' licenses. They all drove out the student parking lot to head to Bonnie's house. _________________________________________________________________________ (4:21pm) Ashley A and Ashley B parked on the left side of the street while Ashley Q and Ashley T parked on the right side of the street. Ashley B had also picked up Bonnie, Hope, and Rebecca as well.

  "Looks like we came a little early." Ashley B said with a manevolent grin.

"Early for us to start plotting Possible and Stoppable's popularity demise!" Bonnie added with a slight evily laugh, pressing a button on the garage door from her purse. She also had an extra set of house keys for when either or both of her parents are still at work.

The seven girls all walked into the garage. Once Bonnie closed the garage door, locked the door leading from the garage to the kitchen, and made sure the coast was clear, she got out a couple of folding chairs.

"Is there anyone in the house we should be aware about?" Ashley Q asked.

"My little bro, Jonnie." Bonnie replied. "He usually takes the bus to school. So he's taken care of!"

"Ugh...annoying little sibs! I sympathize with you!" Ashey B agreed.

"Hey, to be fair, I love my little bro! He and I are tight...unlike my ugly older sisters." Bonnie countered, defending her bond with Jonnie.

"Can we just get to the point with the theft of that skeleton key, B?" Ashley A questioned, insisting on the details.

Bonnie sighed, "Very well! AQ and R, can you both get the folding table and the house plans as well?"

Ashley Q and Rebecca gathered both the small folding table as well as the layout plans of the Rockwaller house. Ashley Q unfolded the legs to make the table stand up and Rebecca unveiled the plans of the house. Bonnie pointed out the end of the hallway.

"The master bedroom is over here at the very edge. Mom usually hides her skeleton key on the dresser. A couple of us can swipe it from there on our way to the school." she explained.

"Why not just take it now?" Ashley T insisted.

Bonnie glared at her and replied, "AT, what aspect of stealth do you not get? And besides, all the MUSD schools usually lock up at around 6pm. Mom would surely notice and I would be grounded for an entire month!"

She continued, "This plan needs to have an aspect of stealth if we are to surprise both Possible and Stoppable."

Ashley T sighed, "Go ahead, B!"

"Ashley A and I are going to plan a sleepover on Saturday night and make it seem that it is a girls' night out." Bonnie explained, "I have Mom and Dad's nightly routine down to a science. They usually drink a glass of water at around 9pm before they go to bed. But if I can spike it, they will get even more sleepy faster."

"Spike it? You mean use alcohol?" Hope asked.

"No, H! Its the AJAX sleeping powder the 'rents keep in the cabinet above the counter!" Bonnie replied.

"And how will we do that?" Ashley B asked.

"Dad sometimes uses that sleeping powder to give himself longer nights of sleep after long shifts at the station." Bonnie explained, "If I can put a teaspoon each in their glasses, it'll surely knock them out of commission."

"Then we will take the key at around 10:30pm, sneak into the school at 11, and once  Ashley Q cuts off the security cams, find that Romeo and Juliet cast list, and make the swap." Bonnie continued going into detail about their plan. "Once that is done, we'll come back to the house and put the key back in its proper place! No one will even notice!"

"Alright, I am in agreement of this plan!" Ashley A replied, shooting up her hand. Bonnie smiled at this.

"Alright, any other takers?"

One by one, the girls raised their hands, Ashley B followed Ashley A, then Ashley T, Rebecca, Hope, and lastly Ashley Q.

"Now that I see no objections to this plot, Possible won't know what hit her!"
