Exit the mutt, enter the Bat-mutt

My first story of T.U.F.F Puppy, hope you like it.

It was a normal day at the T.U.F.F HQ except there's wasn't any bad guys planning something evil like we know; anyway when Dudley arrived at T.U.F.F he noticed that nobody was there not even his partner Kitty Katswell, he was kind of worried until he heard laughs on the other side of a room, that room was where the agents could see a movie for entertainment but when Dudley watched from the door almost opened he saw how everybody was watching a video made of different clips of Dudley's failures, everybody was laughing about the different stupid things Dudley did during the time.

-"HAHAHAHAHA! Oh boy that's so funny!" The chief said barely because of his laugh.

-"I know! That time he had amnesia was hi-hi-hi hilarious!" Keswick said.

-"Hahahahahaha! I swear sometimes he's really an idiot!" Kitty barely said for the laugh. Hearing this Dudley felt betrayed by the people he respected and he thought they respected him, but after seeing this he felt anger inside him and he left his plaque and his laser gun at his desk and went to the main door of T.U.F.F's HQ to take a walk and think about this. His walk while he was thinking deeply took almost the entire day until the night; Dudley decided to sit on a bench in the park.

-"They actually made fun of me; I wonder why I even joined T.U.F.F?" Dudley said as he took one last look at the T.U.F.F building, the place where he became a secret agent.

-"I still want to fight crime but not if I have to do it with those T.U.F.F bad friends." Dudley said as the wind was coming and a comic book landed on Dudley's face, when Dudley grabbed it he saw it was comic book of Batman so Dudley got interest about this and he started to read it, he read about the origins of the dark knight but what it actually interested him the most was that Batman was a crime fighter who used the symbol of the bat to strike the fear into the hearts of criminals.

-"Dressing as a bat to make the criminals afraid and to fight crime…I like it!" Dudley said as he stood up from the bench and went to who knows where.

The next day at the T.U.F.F's HQ everybody was working as usual, but while Kitty was working she noticed that Dudley hasn't arrived yet.

-"Keswick, have you seen Dudley today?" Kitty asked.

-"No I haven't seen him in the whole d-d-d-d-day." Keswick said.

-"Thanks, I'll go to ask the chief." Kitty said as she went to the chief's office.

-"Morning chief, have you seen Dudley today?" Kitty asked again.

-"No I haven't seen him today agent Katswell, maybe the guards from the main door knows something about it." The chief said as he turned on his intercom.

-"Yes sir?" One of the guards asked over the intercom.

-"Guard, why hasn't agent Puppy arrived yet?" The chief said.

-"I'm sorry sir but the register says that agent Puppy had resigned from T.U.F.F." The guard said.

-"WHAT? What do you mean he resigned T.U.F.F?" The chief asked.

-"I really can't explain it with details sir, yesterday agent Puppy left his plaque and his weapon plus he said he resigned from T.U.F.F and left without a word." The guard said.

-"I see…thanks for the report." The chief said.

-"What does he meant about Dudley resign T.U.F.F? He loves being a secret agent!" Kitty said.

-"I don't know why he resigned, but he took his decision and we don't know where he could be right now, there's nothing we can do now." The chief said sounding a little depressed.

Kitty left the chief's office without saying a word and she saw Dudley's desk remembering the good times she had with him like chasing and capturing the bad guys then she felt how a tear fell from her eye, she really started to miss Dudley.

At night every T.U.F.F agent was waiting for a threat from a bad guy but they were interrupted by Keswick.

-"Everybody listen up, I believe I discovered the r-r-r-reason why there's no bad guys around, watch." Keswick said as he turned on one of the screens showing the news.

-"Breaking news people of Petropolis! Several crimes had been stopped tonight by a bat-like creature; Kidnapped children were found alive alongside with many members of a crime gang who were found with eleven broken bones and internal bleeding, many testifiers had affirmed that the creature looked like a dog dressed as Dracula but details are still to be confirmed." The reporter said.

-"Seems someone has stole our routine." Keswick said.

-"A bat-like creature? What does that mean?" Kitty said.

-"That's what you're going to find out, agent Katswell find that guy and interrogate him!" The chief said.

-"On it chief!" Kitty said as she was making her way to the car.

Kitty Katswell had followed the trial of the one who was cleaning up the streets of Petropolis from the crime. During her search she found the chameleon stealing from Petropolis bank.

-"Stop Chameleon! You're under arrest!" Kitty said as she pointed her laser gun at the Chameleon.

-"Haha! Stop me if you can agent Katswell!" The Chameleon said as he started to run away.

Kitty had chased him until they got at the top of a rooftop.

-"Dang! Dead end." The Chameleon said and Kitty arrived at the top so she was about to arrest the Chameleon until both of them heard a voice.

-"Chameleon! You're days of crime ends now! Surrender now or face my wrath." A bat-like figure in the shadows said.

-"Who are you?" The Chameleon said so the figure in the shadows approached to the light and he looked like a dog dressed as Batman, the Chameleon and Kitty stared at him kind of shocked.

-"I'm the Bat-mutt!" Bat-mutt said as he throws batarangs at the Chameleon but he evaded them and transformed in a laser turret and started to shoot at the dog knight, then the Bat-mutt used his cape to block the laser, seemed his cape was made of a special material that could get solid enough to deflect laser, with the laser deflected the Bat-mutt rushed against the Chameleon and Puppy punched him.

-"Ow!" The Chameleon said as the Bat-mutt putted cuffs in the Chameleon's hands. With the Chameleon defeated the Bat-mutt noticed that Kitty was looking the whole fight.

-"I believe you can take him to the jail can you cat girl?" Bat-mutt said as he was about to go but…

-"Not so fast bat dog, you're coming with me to the T.U.F.F. Headquarters for interrogation." Kitty said as she aimed her laser gun at the Bat-mutt.

-"Hmph, bite me!" Bat-mutt said as he used a smoke pellet to leave Kitty coughing and unable to see anything, when the smoke was gone the Bat-mutt was already swinging with his grapple gun away from Kitty.

-"HII-GEE-GEE!" The Bat-mutt exclaimed as he was swinging away, though Kitty was able to hear that.

After leaving the Chameleon in jail, Kitty was driving back to T.U.F.F.

-"I wonder who's that dog, he seems….familiar." Kitty thought.

-"Anyway, I have to deliver my report to T.U.F.F." Kitty said and when she arrived at T.U.F.F. she went to the chief's office.

-"Chief?" Kitty said as she entered to the chief's office.

-"Agent Katswell! Did you found our suspect?" The chief asked.

-"Yes chief but he got away." Kitty said.

-"I see…tell me what you found out about him." The chief said.

-"Well he called himself the Bat-mutt, he's a dog disguise as a bat but not like a real bat is more of a grey outfit with a black cowl and he had a symbol of a bat in his chest, seems he only attacks to the criminals, he also have a variety of gadgets from a utility belt he has and…as much I hate to admit it he's a master in martial arts." Kitty informed.

-"Whoever this Bat-mutt is we must find him, I don't want any costumed vigilante in Petropolis." The chief said.

-"Will do chief." Kitty said.

Meanwhile, the Bat-mutt entered through a window to a room similar to Dudley's room except for one thing….IT WAS DUDLEY'S ROOM! Then the Bat-mutt took of the mask showing Dudley's face as he sat in the left side of his racing car bed.

-"Not bad for the first night." Dudley said as he looked at his Bat-mutt mask, now Petropolis had a new protector, one who could protect the city without regretting or rules.

-"Listen up Petropolis, there's a new hero in town…the Bat-mutt!" Dudley shouted his speech until he started to feel something in his stomach.

-"…After a quick dinner." Dudley said running down to the kitchen.
