Prologue: "Confessions"

"Tada!" Cassidy called out as she and Tech entered the main room of HQ one day. Tech was holding something that looked like a belt.

"Ohohohoh! What's that? It looks like a belt! Is it a belt? What does it do?" Rev asked, rushing up to them to inspect it.

"Yes, Rev, it is. It is called the Transformo-belt." Tech looked at Cassidy. "Would you mind showing them what it does?"

"Sure." Cassidy pressed one of the buttons. Her outfit changed from her black-and-blue uniform to her figure-skating outfit.

"Cool." Lexi commented. Tech handed each of them one. Each belt was specially designed to fit their different body shapes. When Lexi pressed one of the buttons, her outfit changed into a very slim red dress and a large purple wig. "Love the dress, not too big on the fake hair."

Just then, the alarm for the holograph sounded. They gathered around the large table. But, when the hologram appeared, it wasn't Zadavia's. It was an older coyote anthro.

"Uh.. excuse me, sir, but would you mind telling me who you are?" Ace asked.

"Greetings, I am King Johnathan Coyote of planet Sari. I am in search of a young girl by the name of Aurora Cassidy Coyote."

Ace glanced at everyone else. They all had the same expression, absolutely confused. "Sorry, Sir, but, there is no Aurora here."

"You are mistaken, she is here." He said, pointing to Cassidy.

"Me?" Cassidy asked, confused and freaked out.

"Yes, you. I have been searching long and hard for you. It is me, your father."

"Father?" The Loonatics all said at once.

The doctor turned around in his chair to face the two humans who were sitting in his office chairs. He cleared his throat. "The test results came in. I'm sorry, but your new baby is allergic to animal fur."

The woman looked at her husband and they both looked at the four-year-old female coyote anthro sitting in the man's lap. The woman set her hand on the little girl's shoulder. "I'm sorry, Cassidy." Tears came to the girl's eyes.

"Hello? Earth calling Cassidy!"

"Huh?" Cassidy blinked and backed up when she saw Rev's hand waving inches from her nose.

"Are you okay?" Slam asked.
"Yeah, I'm okay..." Cassidy lied. 'Man, I can't believe I completely spaced out like that!'

"Do you know him?" Ace asked.

"No. I've never seen him before."

"Sorry, but it looks like you're mistaken. Cassidy has a father. Well.. we've never met him and she never talks about him, but I'm sure she does!" Duck said, obviously annoyed. "Right, Cassidy?" He turned around to look at her, but her eyes were looking at the floor.

"Cassidy? What's wrong?" Tech asked, setting his hand on her shoulder.

"Well.. there is a small chance that he's telling the truth..."

"What are you getting at?" Ace questioned.

"The truth is... I've never known my real family. I'm... an orphan."
