Kim Possible: Civil Disobedience ("Riot")

"Sung" from Shego's POV. (The credit's song is Kim's POV.)

Set to "Riot" by Three Days Grace.

(See the annotated version for even more backstory! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v96_VTBX16o

Maturity warning: The song contains a lone swear word; I left it in because the scene in question lacks a certain oomph without it.

Backstory:

An AU to "Graduation." The quantum physics and ballistic trajectories didn't line up this time, and Warhoc and Warmonga didn't plow headlong into their descending battlecruiser after Ron flung them. (Although they still got the snot kicked out of them pretty hard. 8-) )

W & W call in reinforcements, and a *proper* sized fleet shows up this time; the pair's wounds and the space-jump lag of their reinforcements give Kim and Co. time to amscray and go to ground, but the additional battalions secure a beachhead and manage to set up a puppet-state akin to "Half Life 2."

At this point, Kim and Co. are undecided on their options. Humanity got pwned, but we've still got resources and a burgeoning Underground. "Everyone" knows we're going to do "something," but Kim is torn apart because she knows that any formal, declared, organized Uprising will lead to massive loss of civilian life.

Shego, master of mayhem, sabotage and violence, steps in and offers Kim a third option: a little.... Civil Disobedience. After all, a constant, low-grade insurgency defeated the greatest armies in the world in 1775-1783 and 1961-1975.
Mash enough little wrenches into the system, and eventually the system will come down.

(Presented with her trademark smirk. Cue "Riot.")

Now Kim has issues as the things she used to crusade against - sabotage, larceny, raids, arson, grand theft auto, vandalism on an epic scale - suddenly flip-flop from "Bad" to "Good." She also has to keep a sharp eye on Shego and Drakken, least they use the ensuing, gleeful anarchy to do a little.... status repositioning of their own...



The video sorta has three parts to it - after Shego gives the idea to Kim, the latter proposes it to the Underground; the "spontaneous" uprising is then planned and finally executed. This process is punctuated by the "present tense" riot.

------------

Not my most elegant video, at least compared to "Into the Night," but then, the song in question isn't very "nice."

With the right music and proper editing, it's a bit stunning how *violent* you can make this show become. O_o

Ahhhhhhh, context..... ;)

Enjoy and please review! :D

very well made amv, wish kim possible was still on free tv :/ I remember this episode, its awesome, probably my favorite Naked mole rats FTW!

[fireandchutes77]

@bonahe:

Thanks! Yeah... The episodes are online for download, of course.... And I think they've got some on Hulu, too. Still doesn't replace prime-time TV, though.

What episode are you referring to?

[bonahe]

The one where she goes into the future, and naked mole rats are starting a rebellion, and she ends up helping them defeat the bad guy. and she ends up going into his massive tower and owning :)

[fireandchutes77]

Ah, I know what you're talking about now. That's the "Future" portion of the made-for-TV movie "A Sitch in Time."
