"Families are like fudge - Mostly sweet with a few nuts." Anonymous

My brothers weren't really shocked at me being with another girl. After all, they knew my orientation. Mego questioned how a villain could love a hero, the twins congratulated me, and Hego...

"This is great!" he cheered, putting his arms over me Kimmie's shoulders as he squeezed us close. "You have a chance for redemption!"

Of course that was to be expected of my idiot of a brother whom I can't believe I'm related to. I dreaded going to the reunion still, even though it was for a good cause on my side. However, going to the reunion wasn't the only bad thing. It was because our reunions tended to last for days.

We made it to Go City in no time, landing at the Go Tower, and me and my 'girlfriend' got off last. She hooked arms with me much to my surprise and trailed behind from my brothers to where they were heading to the boat.

"What was that for?!" she hissed, blushing bright red.

"What?"

"You know what!" she said through gritted teeth. "The kiss, Shego! Why'd you kiss me?"

"Because you're my girlfriend, doy."

"Pretend girlfriend! You could have at least pretended to have kissed me!"

"And where's the fun in that?" I smirked. "Besides, I didn't actually kiss kiss you. I kissed you on the corner of your lips."

She glared at me and tried storming ahead of me, but I tightened our hooked arms. "Aw come on darling, you know you liked it."

We all sat on the boat and with Hego at the wheel, headed towards Go City. It didn't take long to get to the city and we started walking. Our house wasn't too far anyway, and it surprised me that I still remembered the way. It also felt weird that I was in Go City without committing a crime. Speaking of crime, Dr. D must be wondering where I am. Oh well, he'll be fine.

At Dr. Drakken's lair

"Shego! Operation Gherken 2!" the blue mad scientist glared at his enemy, daring it to define him one more time. "You will be opened...JAR OF MAYOOOO!"

Back in Go City

"Well, here we are!"

We arrived at the house where we all grew up in, looking the same as it did since I last saw it. It was a two story house, just big enough for our family. Hego led the way towards the steps that led to the house, and when we finally made it to the door my mom opened it before we could even knock. She was wearing an apron that was splattered with flour and her hair was tied back to avoid it getting in the way.

"It's so nice to see you all together!" she said happily, giving my brothers hugs first.

When it came to me, we kinda just stared at each other awkwardly before hugging each other just as awkwardly.

"And who is this?" she asked, winking at me. She was pretending that she didn't know that Kimmie was my 'girlfriend'.

"I'm Kim Possible," Kimmie said, catching on quickly since my brothers were still there, being nosy if mom would approve. "I'm Shego's g-g...girl-"

Oh crap.

"I'm..." she kept turning brighter.

"She's my girlfriend," I said, saving her the embarrassment and put my arm around her shoulder.

"Aww, someone is just a little shy!" she said, pinching Kimmie's cheek.

I bit back a laugh. "Better come in, your cousins are already here."

Kimmie snorted and I glared at her. Damn nickname! We walked inside and saw my brothers headed to the backyard I held Kimmie back.

"Oh, and your father is upstairs still resting. You can meet him later."

I swallowed hard but nodded. When she left I sighed and looked at Kimmie who was frowning.

"Hey, you alright?" I asked. "You almost blew our cover back there."

She bowed her head shamefully and I felt something tug at my heart, I ignored it.

"I know, I'm sorry," she said, finally looking at me, her eyes sad. "I...I don't know what came over me."

"Let me do all the intros then," I said, and she nodded.

I patted her cheek. "Come on Pumpkin, put a smile on your face. I don't want your little bubble butt to pop!"

"Shego!" she said, blushing with a smile.

I chuckled and held her hand as I led her to the backyard. I was just as scared at meeting my family as she was. But it was an entirely different situation for me. When we came outside, everyone stopped chatting. My cousins and brothers were all there. They stared at us and I felt Kimmie tighten our hands.

"Yo hothead!" I heard my cousin Gale called out, coming towards us. "Nice to see that you're finally here."

Thank God for him breaking the tension.

"Whose the redhead?" Andrew, Gale's brother, asked as he joined his brother's side. "She's sexy."

I glared at him. Andrew was the pervert of our family, and most of the time didn't know where the lines were crossed.

"Back off," I said, "She's mine."

Those words didn't sound like they came from me, or intentionally. I felt my face heat up. What's gotten into me? I didn't have to look at Kimmie because I had a feeling that she must be as red as her hair. I mean who wouldn't be after that kind of comment?

"Whoa, calm those flames hothead. I'll keep my paws to myself."

Gale tossed his head back in a laugh and whispered to Kim, "I hope you savored your time being single 'cause this girl is possessive!"

I punched his arm. "I heard that!"

"But it's so true," Andrew teased. "I remember the time when we were little and you wouldn't share your birthday cake!"

"I was five!"

"You know, now that I think about it," Hego said, looking up at the sky in thought. "I remember that spatula incident when-"

I flung a plasma ball at his head, but unfortunately it missed. At least it singed some of his hair.

"SHUT UP!"

"Spatula?" Kimmie asked.

Andrew perked up. "Oh! I remember! It was when Shego and her-AH!"

I flung a plasma ball at him too. "You too!"

"Chickadee! Stop being mean to your cousins!" my mother shouted from the kitchen window.

My face heated up with embarrassment and anger. My cousins, brothers, and Kimmie all laughed aloud, pointing their fingers at me.

"CHICKADEE!"

After all the teasing was done and over with, and my plans for revenge were just beginning, we headed inside at my mom's command. She had forgotten some things to buy, and so we were sent out to do some errands. I insisted that we didn't need so many people just to buy a few things, but my mom would hear nothing of it. She wanted us to reconnect which didn't make sense since we would be for the next couple of days. Not only was I stuck with my pretend girlfriend, annoying brothers, and perverted cousins, we were the Go family. And when you put all the Go's together, well...

"Clean up in aisle 4!"

"You clumsy dolt!" Mego said, whacking our older brother on his head as if it would help knock some sense into him. "Look at what you did! There's flour all over the floor!"

Hego brushed the contents of the spilled flour off of him. Apparently he had been too busy trying to show off his super strength and had somehow destroyed the packs of flour. I face palmed at his stupidity and I had a feeling that I would leave a red mark on my face by the end of the day.

"It's no problem! We'll get this cleaned up in no time! Wegos!" Hego said.

I opened my mouth in protest, knowing it would make matters worse, but again, these are my brothers I'm talking to. The Wegos began multiplying themselves and began running about to clean up the mess. And instead of actually helping, they just made it worse. They slipped over the flour, knocking more items off the shelves in the process, and even toppled over one of the workers who came over to see what the problem was.

"Let's go Kimmie," I said dragging her along with me. She didn't protest, but she did looked confused whether to help or not.

"Where's Andrew and Gale?" Kimmie asked.

We scanned the aisles, and walked about, keeping our eyes pealed for my cousins. Suddenly, just as Kimmie exited one aisle, a cart crashed into her, forcing her inside. It zoomed passed me, carrying Kimmie along with it who was screaming at the top of her lungs as Andrew kicked it into a faster speed.

"Oh my God..." I chased after Andrew and Kimmie in the zooming cart of doom.

"Clean up in aisle 10, 11, and 12!"

"Andrew you idiot! Stop the damn cart!"

Just as I was gaining on them, Andrew placed both of his feet on the cart and glided down one aisle. I was too late to find out why he had done that when I slipped and fell on the slippery floor, crashing into the wet floor sign. I cursed and struggled to get to my feet, only to slip on my butt again, harder this time.

"Ughh...that's going to hurt tomorrow!"

Before Andrew and the cart with a yelling Kimmie who tried to tell him to stop could disappear, I threw a plasma ball at one of it's wheels. It served and screeched before crashing into a pyramid of cat food.

When I had finally gotten to my feet, cursing my tongue off, I pulled my cousin out of the cat food. "What the hell are you?! A kid?!"

Andrew could only smile innocently. Kimmie got to her feet, twisting her face in disgust as she wiped off some of the cat food that had escaped from the food that popped. If I wasn't so pissed off at my immature family, I would have teased her about that.

"Geez Shego!" my 'girlfriend' complained. "Couldn't you at least crashed us into a pyramid of toilet paper?"

"Hey! What's going on here?"

We turned and saw two security guards with the manager heading towards us.

"I'll deal with you later," I hissed at Andrew and took off with the guards on our tails.

"I can't believe this..." Kimmie said as we ran down aisle after aisle.

She was probably embarrassed to be a hero caught in the act of doing something bad. I wouldn't really call this bad, in my opinion. This was just childish crap, but I guess messing up an entire store would be considered bad in her book.

"Time to go!" I said as we ran last my brothers who didn't seem to make much progress in cleaning up.

They followed without question and we all zoomed out the doors of the store. Maybe the guards had given up or simply lost us on the run because they weren't looking for us.

"Wait! Where's Gale?" Kimmie asked.

"Right here."

There on one of the kiddy rides that was always outside these kinds of store was Gale. He didn't look like a happy child.

"Don't ask..."

We arrived back at the house with the things we needed. Of course we had to go to a different store to get them. When we came home, I put away the things we bought and went into the kitchen to get a glass of water while my brothers and cousins went upstairs to play some video games like the children they were. When I came back, I saw my mom showing Kimmie an album. They were giggling about something my mom had pointed at and when I saw what album it was, I spat out my drink.

"Mom! What are you showing Kimmie?!"

They looked up, trying to look innocent, but couldn't help but laugh. My eye twitched.

"Oh..." my mom snickered. "Just some pictures."

Kimmie snickered behind her hand, unable to look at me without laughing.

I stormed up to them and saw that it was my baby album. Oh God no...no, no, NO! My embarrassing history was all in here. All my childhood memories and things I wanted to forget were being shown to Kimmie!

"Mom!" I whined.

"Oh don't worry, Chickadee! Your girlfriend won't mind! She actually finds them adorable."

Kimmie nodded and giggled. "I especially like the one where you're in the tub with a rubber duckie! You were so cute!"

My eye twitched even more. My water starting steaming because of my powers that I had unintentionally used.

"Cute? Adorable? I'm not cute and adorable! I'm supposed to be evil, badass, and cool! Not cute!"

"Don't be so shy honey! You were so cute, and you still are!

I'm pretty sure that I felt a vein pop in my head. My glass was starting to melt and it took me a moment to realize I had done that. I went back into the kitchen and dumped out the water, trying to calm myself as their laughter continued. My nightmare was becoming true. Kimmie and my mom were getting along. Before I entered the room once again, a man made himself known. He descended the last few steps and my heart skipped a beat as my eyes grew wider. His hair was no longer jet black, but now a bright white. His features had of course aged with wrinkles, and his eyes had dark circles with heavy bags. He gripped his cane in his right hand, his posture was slightly bent as if he had been hunched over his desk for his whole life. But the main thing that hadn't changed about him was his stern gaze that seemed to see through your flesh and into your soul. Yet if you look close enough, you can see that behind that mask of intimidating power was softness in them.

Those eyes that belonged to my father.
