SWAT Kats - Revolution
Ch 1. The End, And the begining.
"Some how, I knew that it would end like this..." Jake said to his old buddy Chance. He turned his head to look at the coffin being lowered down into the ground. It was draped in the flag of Megakat city and on top of it was a ceremonial rapier, the mark of a commander of the Enforcers. In the coffin lay the late commander Effraheim B. Sphinx. He had been the commander for more then fifty years and had met his fate, like the Enforcer he was, after finally shooting the wanted criminal Lynx B. Bad out of the sky only to have shrapnel hit his engine and kill him. The dog fight between the two had already gained fame as one of the most skilled aircraft duels of modern times.
"Yeah, He always said that he would die in his plane." Chance replied. The two young Enforcer hot shots said their last good bye to their former leader and mentor and then left the cemetery to return to HQ. They didn't have patrol duty today so they would only change out of their parade uniform and then get home("home" being the Enforcer barracks) to rest.
The next day was the inauguration ceremony for the next Commander, a big kat named Ulysses Feral. He came highly recommended for being by the book and a skilled fighter.
Two years later had changed that. Not because Cmdr. Feral had changed but because the criminals had, and there was nothing in the book about handling mutated criminals or criminal geniuses, nothing at all. That was why, after so many failures at the hands of the criminals, he decided to try playing the role of hot shot himself. He forced himself past two of his subordinates, a pair of reckless tomkats named Jake and Chance. He clipped their wing when he passed and turning around to see what happened reveal the two ejecting and the plane crashing into the new flight deck of Enforcer HQ. Muttering a curse he turned his attention back to Dark Kat only to be met with an empty sky and no enemy in sight. On his pass back he got a better view of the damages to the flight deck. He cursed loudly as he landed his plane on the one intact landing strip. The following confrontation did not go well, too much adrenalin and not enough brain lead to the Commander firing them, and landing them with the repair bill. Feral's attempt at playing outside the rules may have gone out the window but it also led to the formation of the SWAT Kats, a vigilante counter-strike force of unbeatable champions.
