3	''Best Enemies'' is a ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'' fanfic and the beginning of a series of the same name written by '''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1052599/ King in Yellow]]'''. The first episode ([[TheRemake which was rewritten into a better version]], [[OldShame while the original one got removed from the net]]) stands together as a composite arc along another five stories (and an extra chapter), and then diverts into numerous stories exploring the lives of several characters, different situations and the growing up of the next generation.
4
5	The story, [[FanPreferredCouple like many other fanfics in the Kim Possible fandom]], resolves around the starting and development of a romance between [[LesYay Kim]] [[{{Shipping}} and]] Shego, eventually exploring multiple facets of their lives. Many other characters are also given starring roles in subsequent stories.

Many episodes are announced, but have yet to be written[[note]]The ones listed as '''TBW''' (To Be Written).[[/note]]. It also includes what could be considered two inside-series, "Team Possible II" and "Three Weddings and a Funeral", which parts and episodes are scattered among the other stories[[note]]Said episodes are proper listed in chronological order on the list.[[/note]]. Finally, the series has won one of the first places in the annual fan-made wards awarding (called “Fanies”) held within the fandom.
8
9	The overall story revolves about many events, but more often than not, the revolve around romance and SliceOfLife episodes. It eventually incorporates popular {{Fanon}} {{Original Character}}s Kasy and Sheki, originally written by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/941378/ NoDrogs]] for ''Fanfic/ASmallPossibility'' – a well known writer in the fandom – but with their origin rewritten and their characters’ being expanded while still remaining recognizable. Also, many of the stories include much of the author ('''[=KiY=]''', as he is known to mention to his series’ readers)'s [[RealLifeWritesThePlot personal life experiences]].

125	* TheCasanova: Josh, even after he's married.
126	* CasualKink: A few examples, one of the more notable being Kim.
127	* ChildrenRaiseYou: Something Kim and Shego learn eventually.
128	* ChristmasSpecial: Several of them throughout the series. A few Hanukkah specials as well.
129	* ClassReunion: One of the stories has the cheer squad reunite at a ski lodge to catch up (with a bit of ReunionRevenge mixed in as well as an attempt to cover up the twins having two mothers and [[{{Paparazzi}} prevent media backlash]]).
130	* {{Crossover}}: A few minor ones with [[spoiler: ComicBook/{{Hellboy}} and the Franchise/CthulhuMythos.]]
131	* CuteGhostGirl: Although she died in 1922 the daughter of the first owner still lives in Kim's home.
132	* DeadpanSnarker: Shego, as always.
133	* DreamSequence: In ''A Dark and Stormy Night'' Shego falls asleep in front of the television while waiting for Kim to get home and dreams them in a noir detective film.
134	* GoKartingWithBowser: After being advised to give money to charity for tax purposes Señor Senior allows Kim to apportion the money if she will assemble a team of heroes to play a team of villains in golf.
135	* HeroicNeutral: Bonnie has no interest in helping anyone she can like Kim, but [[spoiler:when [[ActionHeroBabysitter Kasy and Sheki, who she was babysitting, got kidnapped, she doubtlessly lead her friends into rescuing them, even putting herself at risk for the sake of them]].]]
136	* LoveTriangle: Ron loves Yori and Yori loves Ron, but they can't be together. Meanwhile, Bonnie falls for Ron who starts falling for her and... it gets messy.

138	* MamaBear: Do '''not''' mess with Kim and Shego's daughters. They will [[BewareTheNiceOnes both]] maul you.
139	* MindScrew: ''"Follow the Queen II: Deuces Wild"'' is ''made'' of this.
140	* NoodleIncident: Kim, Ron and Shego venture into Tibet to chase mysterious creatures known as "Jacks" and barely make it back. The incident is mentioned every so often, but never described.
141	** Also another one mentioned between Joss and Wade about something implying the involvment of tentacles.

146	* PsychicLink: Between [[spoiler: Joss and Bego.]] It lessens as time passes and each become their own unique person.
147	* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Many episodes were derived from the author's personal experiences. Sometimes with [[WriterOnBoard the characters express things from him]], [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools but never to a point it gets annoying or threatens with]] {{Out Of Character}}-ness.
148	* RecapEpisode: ''So the Trauma''[[note]]A pun on the name of TheMovie, ''So The Drama''[[/note]] acts like one, written so as to introduce new readers into the series without having to read the massive amount of material present.
149	* RedOniBlueOni: Mostly Kim and Shego, but who's red and who's blue can vary. Later, Kasy and Sheki are a ''much'' more evident example of this.
150	* RetiredBadass: Eventually Shego aims at this, but sometimes has to get back into action for one reason or another. After being both a {{superhero}} and a {{supervillain}}, she now wants a home life with family and stability, though she does worry that her aim "to be dull" could drive away her still more adventurous partner.
151	* ShipperOnDeck: The reason for ''plenty'' of the PairTheSpares cases is because Kim was trying to hook up his friends.
152	* ShipTease: ''"Second Death"'' has a rather explicit moment of this between Hanna and Sheki, stated to be because of a fanart of the pairing inspired by the series.
153	* ShownTheirWork: Whenever the stories deal with history, culture, religions or law, be sure you'll be learning more than a few things about the subject.

159	* {{Tsundere}}: Bonnie.
160	* TwoTimerDate: Poor Drakken [[SubvertedTrope thought]] he was doing this with Vivian and [[MadScientist DNAmy Hall]].
161	* UnresolvedSexualTension: Oh dear mother of all shipping... if you thought Kim and Shego had it hard getting together, just wait to see how it is like for [[spoiler:Ron and Bonnie.]]
162	* WeirdnessMagnet: Most of the members of Team Possible II tend to attract strange happenings every once in a while. [[JustifiedTrope Of course, maybe if they stopped messing with the space/time continuum…]]
163	* WhatMeasureIsANonhuman: This debate is brought up when [[spoiler:Bego begins to show sentience and a strange connection to Joss.]]
164	* YetAnotherChristmasCarol: One of the Christmas stories is [[ShapedLikeItself yet another Christmas carol.]]
