Midnight - Thank you for the wonderful compliments. Life has gotten so hectic and I had no idea it had been so long since I’d updated so I hope you’re still checking back.
WildKat - I’m glad you like it so far. The rescuers were meant to be a bit of a surprise. Thank you.
facial991 - Don’t cry! I’m glad that it touched you, though. I’m actually not done with it at all, but I’m glad that the two chapters seem complete in their own right. I’ll definitely be doing some healing chapters.
L-sama - Your wish is my command.
Jiyuu no Megami - I’m updating now. LOL. And nobody deserves to be raped. I know that people probably thought it would be Kim, but I tend to only write male rape scenes. I’ll say why before doing this chapter.
papermaster - I’ll email you. I’m glad you like it. Too bad they don’t have some sort of alert system on AFF.
Tsumi - I’m so honored that my fic rendered you speechless. Your comments really did make me feel very good about myself and my writing. I hope that I continue to entertain you. I’m planning to do a few more chapters. Anything over ten will rate a whole new fic so that I don’t overwhelm anyone. I, like you, can’t stand seeing everything happy right after a rape. One of the reasons that I write rape stories is to show how long recovery takes and how a person changes. I also want to make sure that I convey that being raped doesn’t have to change someone’s life completely and forever. People heal and most people in my fics will do just that. The rape will always be there but, in time, will cease to be the central focus of daily living. Don’t worry. No miraculous jumping into the sack this time. Some of my fics will contain things like that, but it will actually be based in fact (a percentage of rape victims jump into bed with someone safe right after a rape to make things normal to them again. It doesn’t work but it is a coping mechanism.)
Bekll - Sorry that I made you cry, but I’m glad you liked it. Actually Ron’s parents are that absent minded in this particular fic. Think about it. How often do Ron and Kim take off to other countries and whatnot? It’s just a jab at the fact that nobody ever calls the cops to find their missing teens. Hehehe.
Crumbobulus - Thank you for your kind words. More things will come up that upset Ron and that seem hard to protect against. His own name was one thing, but there will be others. It’s just to show that triggers, or things that cause upset relating to a tragic event, aren’t always predictable.
Buritani - I’m glad that you’re so interested. As for what happens next? Read on…

Reasons for writing primarily male rape fics: I happen to be very interested in how rape is perceived in our society. If I say ‘rape victim’ your mind probably conjures up a woman. I’ve found that statistically that’s not actually accurate. According to reports, men make up one sixth of sexual assaults. However, surveys have shown that sexual assault happens to men much more often than that. It shows that men and women are neck and neck as far as who gets raped more often. If you include prison rapes men get raped more than women. Rape has changed over the years and the rise in male rape is alarming, but female rape remains the same.
Rape evolved over time. Men would rape women. Women were too ashamed to say anything and the rapist escaped punishment. Then women started saying something and the man said she was lying and that he had never even met her. Again, men were believed and the woman was forced to watch her rapist go free. DNA changed that. Men were still saying they hadn’t touched the woman, but now evidence proved otherwise. Rapists started going to jail.
But that didn’t last. Men began admitting to sex, but said it was consensual. Again, rapists went free. Our current situation has the courts believing the victim more than they used to and things have started turning around again in our justice system. Men are going to jail for raping women even if they say it was consensual. Evidence collecting has gotten better and the implementation of SANE (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners) has brought about those changes.
So now things have come full circle. Raping men is the newest trend because it closely resembles what used to be the case with women. Shame shocks into silence. Quite simply men don’t tell. My hope in writing male fanfics is that it becomes normalized a bit. If one man reads my story and finds comfort in the fact that not everybody thinks that it can never happen then maybe that’s what I’m trying to accomplish. Finding a way to take the shame off of male victims and put it back on the rapists is my ultimate goal. Okay…off of my soapbox now. I’ll throw this in my bio, too. Sorry that you all read so much that isn’t even an update, but it isn’t like you couldn’t have skipped it. ;-)
On to the story…
Kim continued to stare at the view screen, not sure what she should do next. She became vaguely aware of hands on her shoulders and jerked away. “Don’t touch me!”
Shego held her hands up to show that she wasn’t touching her any longer and regarded Kim carefully. She had wanted to ask for more details on the assault on Ron, but it occurred to her that more may have happened than she knew. “Kim? Why don’t we go sit down for a bit?”
Kim wrapped her arms around herself and bit her lower lip before nodding. She walked with Shego, trying not to look at Ron’s still form as she passed. Looking at Ron had been all she was able to do during his rape and she felt that if she looked at him now that his rape was all she’d see. She shuddered at the thought and willed the images away from her as she sat down in a sitting room off of the main lab.
Shego leaned forward after she found her own seat and clasped her hands together. “Kim?” She frowned as Kim continued to stare at the floor. “Kim? I don’t know why you’re not looking at me. If it’s because of shame or embarrassment I want you to know that it’s not necessary. You did nothing wrong and neither did Ron. Please know that you’re safe now. If you can’t believe anything I ever tell you, please believe that.”
Kim looked up slowly and met Shego’s eyes. She expected contempt or frustration but found only quiet concern. She sobbed suddenly and pressed her fists into her eyes. “I just watched.”
“No, you were tied up and forced to watch. It wasn’t your fault.” She held her hand out to offer Kim the chance for physical comfort.
Kim took advantage quickly and held on for dear life. “I was so scared. He screamed and screamed and I can still hear them and what they did…” Her voice broke and she found that she couldn’t speak due to the amount of grief flowing through her.
Shego looked Kim up and down and then sighed softly. “Did something happen to you, too?”
Kim looked up, confused. “What? No. They raped Ron. I think it’s obvious. You saw us.”
Shego nodded. “Yes, but I also saw that you were wearing Ron’s shirt. What happened to yours?”
Kim shrugged and picked at the navy blue terry cloth robe that Shego had left for her. “It was ripped.”
“Ripped? Like snagged or ripped off of you?” Shego began to rub the back of Kim’s hand with her thumb. “You can tell me. I won’t tell anyone if you don’t want, but you should consider it. Your mom and dad will be here soon and they love you. They only want to know that you’re safe.”
Kim looked away from the mesmerizing green eyes and nodded. “Yeah…one guy grabbed me, but it isn’t a big deal. Ron was hurt much worse.”
Shego shook her head. “Kim, this has nothing to do with comparing what happened to Ron to what happened to you. Let’s just keep this about you. A man grabbed you somewhere that he had no business touching. I’m very sorry that happened to you.”
At Shego’s words, Kim finally felt that it wouldn’t be so selfish to cry for herself and what she had been through. Her tears came quickly and she found that she couldn’t stop them. Shego leaned forward and wasn’t surprised to have Kim fall into her arms. She stroked the teen’s hair and whispered soothing words into her ear. “Kim, I want you to think about talking to your mom. She’s going to be able to help you through this and, as a doctor, I think she’ll be very helpful to you during your recovery.”
Kim finally sat back and nodded. “I could be stubborn, but now isn’t the time. I’ll talk to her, but I want her to check Ron out first.”
Shego nodded. “Of course. Why don’t you stay here and rest. I’ll send your parents in when they are done with Ron.” She got up to wait for the Possibles when she felt Kim grab her wrist.
“Just my mom.”
The dark haired woman nodded in complete understanding. “Alright. For now just rest.” She walked out to check on Ron and wait.
*******Meanwhile********
Ron stared at the ceiling and wondered where the water stain was. Hell, he wondered where the tile was. It seemed appropriate to cry so he laughed.
Drakken had been relieved when Shego took Kim into the other room. He didn’t know exactly how to deal with her and he felt uncomfortable being put into a position to be a good guy. He had just sat down to think when he heard the laughter. It worried him. He had thought that cries of pain or screams of despair would be ripped from Ron first. Laughter was something that made Ron unpredictable. He walked over to the boy, but didn’t stand over him. He had learned that lesson early. “Stoppable?”
Ron turned to him and shook his head. “Don’t be nice to me. I can’t stand that right now.”
“Alright. What would you like me to do? I’m here to help.”
“Help? I didn’t see you helping when those men…you weren’t there. How is it that you and Shego decide to steal the documents hours too late to help me?”
Drakken closed his eyes, knowing what Ron was trying to do, but needing to let him do it. “I’m sorry.”
“You’re sorry? This isn’t your fault.” His voice was soft and there was no anger, only a numbness that permeated Drakken’s soul. “This is my fault. I’m so stupid. I threw the net over Kim instead of the guy. I didn’t fight hard enough. I defeated you.”
Drakken drew back in surprise. “Defeated me?”
“Yeah, remember how you kidnapped us and then you were trying to get to the museum before us? Remember that your ship crashed on takeoff right after we escaped? I did that. If I would have just gone to the museum and not disabled your systems you would have gotten there right after us and this wouldn’t have happened.”
Drakken turned away from Ron, amazed that the boy could find a way to blame himself even for this. “That’s not true. You’re not going to believe me right now and that’s okay, but I need you to listen to me.” He turned back and went to Ron’s side. “No matter how you got there or why you were there or what you did once you were there…everything they did to you was their choice and was their fault and no amount of what if’s are going to change the fact that they did that to you because they wanted to. They are the ones that should be feeling like shit right now, not you. You’re just an innocent victim.”
Ron shook his head. “I can’t see anything but the what if’s. It’s consuming me.”
Drakken nodded. “It’s going to. It’s your only defense. Thinking how it could have been different tricks you into thinking it’s not real. But it is real and I hope that you remember what I’ve told you when it hits you.” He tucked the blanket around Ron again and sat down. When he heard Ron’s breathing slow, signaling sleep, he let his frustrated tears fall.
When soft hands ran through his hair he looked up. “Shego…” He told her everything Ron had said and she sighed.
“You did a good thing talking to him. We can only do so much. He has to decide to heal first.” She turned just as they heard the beeping letting them know that someone had entered the compound perimeter. “The Possibles…are you ready for this?
Drakken got up and stretched. “The question is…will they be ready for this?” They exchanged a knowing look and went to greet their guests.
