Chapter 1: A Star Is Bourne
Shego awoke to the annoying crack of her video intercom as her blue hued employer cleared his throat and began yelling at her. “Rise and shine Shelia, we have to be at the Go City Coliseum in an hour for rehearsals.” Dr. Drakken paused and looked at the blackened screen, “Er, Shego?” He tapped the monitor and heard a groan come from the speaker. “SHEGO!”
Shego rolled over and mumbled into the intercom, removing the handkerchief she used for “privacy” ever since Drew started acting a bit too friendly with her. “Five more minutes Dr. D,” she mumbled. The former henchwoman and current pop sensation almost threw in a ‘please’ just so she could have those precious five more minutes she knew her boss wasn’t going to give her. “Shego the world is waiting for Shelia! We don’t want to be late for our first concert!” Drakken beamed back to the sleepy image of his sidekick. His latest scheme had met a rather unusual snag, but then again when did any of his plans ever go perfectly. This time however, the unfortunate accident was a blessing in disguise.

Six Months Earlier. Friday night, Karaoke Night.    Shego sat at their usual table nursing her usual drink as her employer sang yet another one of his favorites to a crowd of mostly tone-deaf and drunk henchmen. The lone female of the bunch wished she could be anywhere else on earth but where she was at the moment. It wasn’t that her “date” was a bad singer or that he picked bad songs, it was Drew Lipsky’s new obsession with tweaking the melodies and adding his own (horrible) lyrics to the “classics”. He had been warned several times by the club’s owner that Open Mic Night was on Mondays but Dr. D insisted that what he was singing was still considered Karaoke and one threat in the form of a plasma fist from his reluctant “date” settled that matter.
While Drew began to murder yet another Britina classic, Shego decided she had had enough. Enough vodka and enough of Drew’s adlibbing! The dangerous woman abruptly stood up and stalked towards the stage. Dr. Drakken’s voice fluctuated as he watched his henchwoman leap onto the stage with her perma-scowl set on high.    “I’m in the middle of a set here!” the blue man hissed at her covering the mic with his hand, “Do you mind?!?” “Gimmie the damn mic!” Shego growled as she snatched the mic and took over for the mad scientist. She had listened to him sing this same damn song for the last three Fridays with his “new” lyrics. As the former choir girl began to sing the song she added her own lyrics.
Drew was shocked. He couldn’t believe Shego had the nerve to jump on stage, hijack his show and on top of it all sing so beautifully well… with her own original lyrics, he thought. He hardened his face into a frown. Still, she’s not better than me! Drakken slowly stepped back to watch Shego as she belted out the chorus with a deep sexy twang. His eyes widened a bit as he continued to listen. Okay, maybe she’s as good as me, he mentally conceded as he watched the way Shego moved on stage.   She held the last note until the music faded and there was a thunderous round of applause. They, they like her? Drew was dumbstruck and awestruck at the same time. He scanned back and forth from Shego bowing and smiling to the audience of henchmen whistling and shouting for more.
The villainous vixen trotted off the stage over to Drew and waved the microphone at him wearing a smirk that rivaled Kim Possible’s ‘I just beat your ass’ smile. “It’s all in the… lips, doc!” Shego purred then puckered her lips and kissed the air.   She dropped the mic in Drakken’s hand as he just stood here with his jaw hanging loose.
At that moment Drew Lipsky could honestly say that he had NOTHING in his head. Not a single thought. All brain function had come to a complete standstill. The light bulb in his head needed changing, it had just shorted out. Then the one word that could always bring him out of this trancelike state was heard in the distance… Drewbie, Drewbie…
“YO DREWBIE!!! YA WANT ANTHING TO DRINK?” Shego screamed waving a glowing hand in his face.
“You sing,” he stated absently looking through her to the bigger picture suddenly forming in his head.
“Yep, want anything from the bar? It’s last call,” Shego replied taking a step backwards in the general direction of the bar.
“You made up words and you sing,” Drew clarified more to himself than to the woman in front of him.
“Yeah, miracle isn’t it,” she deadpanned. What IS wrong with him tonight? “Drink Drew. Ya want a juice or some water?” Shego quirked an eyebrow at her employer then the realization of what was happening hit her, oh God no!
“How did you sing and sing words?” he asked as his eyes glazed over and his look focused on an even farther place than anything in the known universe. The blank slate in his mind started manically filling with possibilities. His lip curled slightly and his left eye twitched. “You can sing,” he uttered catatonically.
“You’re scheming,” Shego pointed out shaking her head slightly. She didn’t like the way this was going. “So water then?” she asked as she backed away slowly. The thief could see the little hamster wheel in Drew’s head start spinning. No, please dear lord, NO!    Dr. Drakken’s face contorted into a demonic grin.
“Oh no!” Shego gasped shaking her head and backing away at a faster pace.
“Oh yes!” Drew exclaimed, “I have a plan!”
“I knew the second I had my 7^th Vodka Watermelon I was gonna regret this night,” the ex-heroine sighed.
“It’s brilliant Shego!” he declared.
Shego whimpered then sighed again. “It always is,” she mumbled turning to walk away from him. Sometimes I wish I’d just learn to keep my big mouth shut!
Drakken watched the sexy villainess stroll up to the bar and order her final round. Oh yes, this plan can’t possibly fail! Possible… KIM POSSIBLE! “Shego!” he called out to his sidekick while walking off the stage to join her at the bar.
“What is it doctor D? Hit a mental roadblock to your ‘brilliant’ plan already?” she replied with a snort as she was handed her drink. Shego tossed it back and slid Drew his water.
“It’s Kim Possible.” he dejected looking down for a moment. “It’s always Kim Possible, so what?” Shego shrugged. Since when did her boss worry about Kim Possible before he got to work on a plan?
“It’s just that…” he paused and his pansy petals sprouted out. Shego could tell by the new growth that he was nervous. Well, now that we’ve been pardoned by Global Justice for saving the…” “Don’t you dare say it!” the pale green woman warned. She was sick of hearing her employer whine about keeping everything legitimate just because they had caught a lucky break. It had been three weeks since their little run in with Warmonga and thanks to Drakken actually having a whacked plan literally come to fruition they had been pardoned for all their past crimes. It was a fork in the road that quite frankly Shego did not want to be standing at the crossroads of. She was evil, she liked being evil. “Does your plan involve world domination?”
“Yes.” he confirmed sadly and ripped the petals from his neck one by one. Drew lifted his gaze up to meet Shego’s. “Yes, it does and it’s brilliant.” He nearly had tears in his eyes. Drew Lipsky had been torn for the last few weeks about just what he wanted to do. He so badly wanted to take over the world but then again he had been given a clean slate to start over. “I’m in,” the slightly green woman stated simply. She didn’t care what it was as long as it involved taking over the world. Or trying to at least, she mentally quipped.
“But that means...”
“I’ll do it, whatever it is.” she restated.
“But we’ll…” he tried to explain.
“No buts… Are ya an evil genius hell bent on takin’ over the world or are ya a mamma’s boy? Hunh DREWBIE?” Shego taunted. The ex-heroine needed some deviant action, she could tell Dr. Drakken was starting to drink from the Global Justice Kool-Aid and the last thing she wanted was to have to run all over the world saving it with her brother’s and Dr. Drakken in tow. God, now there’s a fate worse than death, she snorted at the thought.
“I’m an evil genius.” Drakken answered meekly.
“Sorry, I didn’t hear ya Drewbie.” she teased putting down her empty glass and walking towards the entrance of the club.
Drew followed her shouting, “I’M AN EVIL GENIUS!” just as the henchman on stage finished his song. There was a barrage of cheers and Dr. Drakken smiled assuming they were for his admission. “I WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD!” he roared and his petals popped out again.
Shego turned and smiled at him. She clapped sarcastically at him three times and slowly walked back to where he was standing.   “I will.” he repeated ripping the petals out.
“That’s more like it!” she growled into his ear. Finally some action! Shego turned to the departing henchmen and barked, “You heard the man; I expect to see all of you morons back at work on Monday morning ready for some serious EVIL!”

Monday morning at the time share lair. “Ugh, I hate this place. Professor DeMenz never cleans it!” Shego spat as she cleared off the main control console and began to power up the lair.
“Uff, tell me about it.” Dr. Drakken growled carrying a box of electronic recording equipment and songbooks.
“Whatcha got there Dr. D?” the thief inquired hearing the strain in her employer’s voice.
“Just a few things for my plan.” he stated placing the box on the one corner of the desk in front of him that wasn’t littered with old Cow & Chow wrappers. The box teetered a bit and one of his songbooks fell out.
Shego swooped it up with ninja-like stealth and began thumbing through it as Drakken worked to get the rest of the stuff out of the hovercraft. “Is this what I think it is?” she asked once she got to the end of the book and found nothing but music written inside of it.
“It IS exactly what it looks like Shego!” Drew snapped placing the next box he had on the floor and grabbing the book away from his sidekick. “It even has a label on the outside that says, ‘SONGBOOK’,” Drew empathized as he ran his tiny finger over the cover of the book to the big block letters clearly stating that it was indeed a songbook.
“I know what IT is.” she replied flatly. “What I don’t know why it’s here and what’s it gotta do with takin’ over the world?”
“Oh that’s the brilliant part of my plan…” Drakken beamed, “I’ve been…”
Shego cut him off running a finger over the desk and scowling at the dust left on her glove. “Is this gonna take long because I’m not really in a ‘listen to you rant’ mood today.” She turned to one of the henchmen carrying in boxes and ordered him to clean the place.
“Like I was saying, I’ve been writing music all weekend and with…” Drakken paused as Shego snapped her head up and looked at him incredulously.
“YES I, the great Doctor Drakken, also write musical arrangements!” he declared as a vine creeped out from under his left cuff. Shego’s look became more disbelieving as she nodded to him sarcastically. “It’s a hobby of mine!” he screeched holding down the vine that was threatening to curl around the henchwoman’s waist.
“Yeah, I’m sure it is. And this will be evil how?” the super powered villainess folded her arms and waited for his reply. She had a feeling she wasn’t going to like his answer.
“Well, I was thinking we could use subliminal…” Drew paused as Shego shook her head no. “With your lyrics and my music we could mix in subliminal…” again the doctor was interrupted by Shego’s head shaking. “Subliminal?”
“We tried that already.” Shego pointed out ripping the frisky vine off of Drakken. “Twice,” she reminded him sighing.
“Oww!” the blue man seethed as he rubbed his wrist. “I told you it hurts when you pull it like that.”
“Ugh,” the woman groaned and threw her hands up in frustration. Of course, I think he’s got some brilliant plan and it turns out to be a big waste of my hopes and dreams. “Why do you even bother, I’m outta here.” Shego started to make for the door when Drakken grabbed her arm. “What the hell is wrong with you!” she thundered. “You promised.”
“I promised what?”
“You said you would do it.”
Shego snorted with laughter and shook off Drakken’s dainty grip on her arm. “I didn’t promise a damn thing! I’m gone; call me when ya come up with somethin’ halfway good.”
“But She-go,” Drew whined scampering after her as he blossomed again. “You said and, and… you’re still under contract.”
Shego stopped at the doorway when she heard those words. Oh no, he didn’t!
“You have to do it, it’s a plan and I say it’s evil so it’s an evil plan meaning you HAVE to HELP me.”
Shego stood there with her back to her boss and shook with fury. “Aaaghh! Fine!” she snarled as she wheeled around and stalked back over to the blue man. “If this doesn’t work, I’m buyin’ out my own contract and leavin’ your ass!” she threatened him and stuck a glowing finger in his face to drive her point home. “You got that!?!”
“Ye-yeah, s-s-sure,” he stammered focusing on the flaming fingertip mere millimeters from his right eye. “This will not fail, we will take over the world and everyone will worship me… you. Me AND you.” he clarified hoping to appease Shego’s anger.
“That’s better.” Shego took her finger away from Drew’s beady eye and let her glow die. She knew this plan was never going to work but why not have one last ride with the mad scientist. At least when they fail she would have a new mark on her record and not feel like such… A bloody hero! She forcefully ripped the petals from Drew’s face and sat down on one of the nearby crates.
Being a hero again was the last thing the super powered woman wanted. She had always been the accidental hero. When she was 15 she was minding her own damn business when a comet crashed into her life and turned her into a plasma wielding superhuman. Then her idiotic brothers decided it would be fun to play dress up and save Go City from crazies just like the madman she currently worked for. “You need to fix that little weed problem you have.”
“I’m working on it!” Drakken snapped back. It’s better than having NO POWERS, he mentally added.
“Work faster. Dr. D. That,” she pointed to a tiny vine peeking over his collar, “it’s just not right.” She shuddered as she took out her nail file and went to work grooming her gloves. Dr. Drakken returned explaining his plan as his hired hand quietly tuned him out while thinking about her own plans.
Shego had loved being a hero at first but it wasn’t what she wanted to do. Before the comet she had been just your basic average girl. She had two dreams in her “other” life. Young Shelia Go had wanted to be a teacher and she was somewhat of a thespian. She had been in the drama club and in choir. She had hopes of making it big on Broadway or at least doing some work on Theater Row in Go City. The comet dashed those hopes. At least she was able to get her teaching degree but with Global Justice wanting Team Go to adopt secret identities, superstar was out of the question.
“…And then everyone will do whatever we want!” Drakken finished.
“Okay so lemmie see if I’ve got your little plan straight. Ya want me to write some songs and I’m guessin’ that after my ‘ga-lowing’ performance on Friday night ya want me to sing too.” Drakken nodded. “And you’re gonna put subliminal messages into the music?”
“Yeah, that’s the plan. Weren’t you listening?”
“No, it’s easier if I don’t.” she replied with a sly smile.

One week later. Lonely Moon Recording Studios. Dr. Drakken sat in front of an expansive control console as he listened to his finished product. “I think that take worked Shego, let’s call it a day.”
Shego removed her headphones and walked out of the live room into the control room. “Cue up ‘I’m Not What I Seem’ again, I wanna hear that second verse from the refrain.”
Drakken nodded and cued up the song. Shego’s lyrics and his music began to flow through the monitors in the control room.
“There's more to me then what you see.
I'm not just a story; I'm not just a truth.   If I was even here then I didn't leave the proof.   You can't find me where, I don't want to be,   I'm not the girl that you can see.”
As the song continued Drakken busied himself with packing up their things. “I’m gonna take this out to the hovercraft. I’ll be right back.” Shego nodded as she listened intently to the song. It was so strange to hear her voice. It’s good, really good, she thought smirking to herself.
“I like to hide, I wanna be found,   I spin my web and it's made of sound,   You can't say I whisper, Can't say that I shout,   I'm the girl you can't figure out.”
Just as the soundproof door was about to close an Italian leather clad foot caught the bottom and a well dressed man with a five o’clock shadow burst into the room. “Hey times up buddy. I paid for this specific studi-whoa, is… is that you?” The man pointed to the nearest speaker.
“Who wants to know?” Shego snapped wheeling around to see who had the nerve to barge in on her.
“I’m Roland Rock, former Oh Boyz manager and if that’s you, well then I’m your new manager!” the businessman stated arrogantly.
Shego was already not liking this guy and his cockiness was not helping. “Hey Dr. D I think the messages are workin’!” the villainess yelled out to the empty hall hoping her boss was within earshot. She raised an eyebrow at the intruder as he produced a business card from out of nowhere. The sidekick cautiously took the card and read it.
Roland Rock Manager to the Starz Hollywood USA
The pale green woman hollered again into the hallway, “Hey Dr. Drakken this suit here thinks he’s gonna be my new manager!”
“What?” Drakken’s voice carried back from down the hall. A manager? I haven’t even gotten to that part of the plan.
“It that your producer? Are you already under contract? And what was that song you were singing, it’s kinda catchy?” Roland questioned snapping his fingers as if trying to keep the beat to the song he just heard.
Shego just sighed and rolled her eyes. “DOCTOR D!”
Drew hustled into the room. “What is it She-, WHO ARE YOU?” he shouted seeing Roland standing by the mixing console cueing up another song.
“I’m Roland Rock, manager.” the businessman answered.   Without looking up from the mixer controls, he flicked his wrist and tossed another business card at the doctor. “So is this your first take?” he asked as he played another song.
“Uh, yeah.” Drakken replied then turned to his henchwoman and whispered, “Who is this guy and why did you let him in here?”
“I didn’t let him in here!” she hissed under her breath. “He came in when you left.” They both paused as Drakken looked at Mr. Rock’s card and Shego stared at Mr. Rock. “Is… is he under the influence?” she asked.
Drakken moved closer to her and muttered, “I didn’t add the messages yet.”
“SO!” Roland boomed causing both villains to jump. “How’s about we go into business together?”
“How’s about you step away from the controls?” Drakken growled flicking the business card back at the man.
“C’mon pops, this could be a chart topper!” Roland commented jamming to the beat of ‘I’m No Hero’.
“Seriously?” Drakken and Shego asked in tandem taken in for a moment by Roland’s professional opinion.
“Seriously!” the slick man replied with an almost sinister grin. “Believe me I know talent and baby, you’ve got it!”
“Oh well…” Shego paused and blushed slightly, “I also write the lyrics.”
“And I do the music and all that.” Drakken chimed in.
“Really?” he asked raising an eyebrow over his mirrored glasses. “So do you hip cats have a manager?”
“NO!” they both answered.
“Well then how’s about we make a deal say… 70/30?”
“You’ve got to be kidding.” Shego laughed and mouthed to Drakken ‘70/30’ like it was the punch line to a joke.
Drakken sucked his teeth and shook his head. “Shego, show Mr. Rock the door,” he ordered his henchwoman.
“Wait, how about 55/45? That’s fair. You’re an unknown after all.” the slick businessman countered with his own laughter.
“With pleasure!” Shego lilted gripping Roland by his bicep and escorting him away from the console table to the door.
“But... but you could be a star baby. I can make it happen.” he almost pleaded as he squirmed in protest.
“And you could be toast, BABY!” she growled lighting her palm as she shoved him out the door and shut it. “What the hell was that all about?” Drakken did not respond he just stared at Shego blankly. Oh, no not again!
“What if he’s right?” the mad scientist intoned.
“’bout?” Shego pressed not seeing his point.
“You and being a star,” Drew clarified as he moved over to the console table and replayed the second to last verse from ‘I’m Not A hero’.
“They could not contain me   They tried to destroy me   Yet here I am ready to fight   They can't match my burning might   I'm not a hero   I am free   I'm not a hero   I am me”
They stood there listening to the infectious beat and Shego’s powerful vocals. “S-so, what're ya thinkin’?” the super powered woman asked as she turned to face Dr. Drakken. Drew’s far away look started panning in as he slowly turned to face Shego. “Maybe we could… just see if it works… without the messages?”
“Whaddya mean ‘without the messages’?” she asked incredulously.
Drakken’s petals came out again and he smiled a twisted smile at his latest plan. “What if you could become famous, I mean really, really big… like Britina? Then you’d basically rule the world. Look at the way people grovel at those pop stars!” Drakken held up his hands as if he was framing an imaginary scene before them. “Just imagine it Shego, everyone screaming your name. The lights, the fame, the POWER!!!” Drakken draped his arm around Shego and whispered, “The world could be ours!”
Shego frowned slightly. This is never gonna work and I’m gonna look like such an idiot! “Do I have a choice?” she sighed.
“Um, not really. No.”
“Well then I guess a star is born.”


I'm Not What I Seem (Lyrics by: NoDrogz)
Chorus: I'm not what I seem, I move through your dream, And I am your fantasy.
I'm a thing of night, I'm dark and I'm light, There's more to me then what you see.
1) Sometimes I go walking, and sometimes I run, I prefer moonlight to being out in the sun. You can't lock me up, can't hide me away, I'm not a girl for everyday.
I'm illusion's shine, I'm just a figment I'm all your money once it's been spent. You can't say I'm true, can't say I'm a lie, I'm not a girl you will see cry.
2) I'm not just a story, I'm not just a truth. If I was even here then I didn't leave the proof. You can't find me where, I don't want to be, I'm not the girl that you can see.
I like to hide, I wanna be found, I spin my web and it's made of sound, You can't say I whisper, Can't say that I shout, I'm the girl you can't figure out.


I’m Not A Hero (Lyrics by: Rampant)
I'm not a hero I am free I'm not a hero I am me
I won't back down I won't be defined I refuse to be defeated I will not be denied
I'm not a hero I am free I'm not a hero I am me
You can't stop me You can't catch me You will never break me You can't keep me down
I'm not a hero I am free I'm not a hero I am me
They could not contain me They tried to destroy me Yet here I am ready to fight They can't match my burning might
I'm not a hero I am free I'm not a hero I am me
I will not lose I won't be stopped What it takes you don't got So just get out of my way
I'm not a hero I am free I'm not a hero I am me
