"No, on your hands, like this!" Jackie did a little cartwheel before performing another one, stopping half-way, and starting to walk around T.U.F.F. HQ in little circles.

"Alright, I'll try…" Kitty tried performing this move for her visiting niece, but still having half of your whiskers lost and performing this move in heels were a lot harder than it seemed. She eventually fell, and laughed with her niece half-heartedly, feeling a little grumpy for being outdone by a twelve-year-old lagomorph. Don't ask me how the wolverine and bunny… ah… "Socialized", but they just did.

She decided that there was no reason to feel inferior at her balancing skills. She was in heels, a slightly uncomfortable skin-tight suit that actually left little ability to move, and had half of her whiskers gone. Jackie was also in the circus in Korea. Well, it was more of a freak show, but she still had to find something to do to keep the crowd to stay.

"It's okay, auntie. It took me forever! Ooh, who's he?" The little cute lagomorph looked at Keswick with big, sparkly, black eyes. Kitty smiled and walked up to him, Jackie on her tail.

"Hi Keswick. This is my niece, Jackie! She's staying with me until my sister Katie is back from the Philippines with her husband, Max." Keswick looked from Jackie who had a huge smile on her face to Kitty with a huge look that said both 'dumbfounded' and 'Are you completely insane?'

"A-a-are y-you co-co-comp-p-pletely in-n-n-nsane?" Keswick was stuttering more than usual now that he was nervous. Poor guy, having tic-disorder. Either that or trying really hard to control those tourrettes. (A/N: tic disorder is a disorder involving facial twitches- tourrettes (how do you spell that?) is a disorder where you blurt out things you don't mean to say.)

"Ah, don't worry Keswick! I found that memory eraser you had stored under your bed." Keswick looked about ready to have a heart-attack. First a little girl came into T.U.F.F. Headquarters, no doubt wanting to tell her friends about it, and then Kitty found out that he lived in the headquarters themselves, (creepy) and now she went through his stuff, no doubt seeing all of those Agent Nutty blackmail plans and pictures of RITA.

"N-n-n-no! T-t-this is a-a-absol-l-lutely n-no-no-not accep-p-ptable!" He pointed a finger in the air as the chief just hopped in, the magnifier hovering behind him.

"What is going on here? Oh, Kitty, I see you've brought your niece here." Keswick just fell to the floor anime style while the lagomorph poked him until he blinked his seemingly huge eyes open and got up with a moan.

"Hello!" Jackie gave him a big, toothy grin, showing off her large, wolverine teeth that were pearl-white.

"A-a-and going d-down!" Keswick said, barely whispered, as he fainted once more. The little bunny that could easily take place of Hello Kitty shrugged and turned around, not taking interest in the… not taking interest in the Keswick. She smiled at the commissioner who gave her a bright smile back and said "Welcome to T.U.F.F Headquarters, Jackie!" She giggled, her ears tied together with a pink bowtie bobbing up and down. Kitty smiled down at her cute niece.

She looked extremely innocent with those big, black eyes. Her white fur was combed perfectly, not a hair out of place. She was barefooted but that didn't matter, since there was no shoes she liked that were in her size, or even in the girls/women section. She was wearing a pink dress with white lace for the fringe. It also had small white polka-dots everywhere. She looked the picture of innocence, odd enough considering her father was the Max, her best friend being her father's partner/legal husband, Sam. (A/N: Inside joke. If you have ever read, seen, or played Sam & Max you would know that they have been best friends since the beginning, even taking baths together, and probably have stayed together for seven years which legally means they're married.) Her father carried around a gun shoved… somewhere… So Kitty believed that her adopted sister had just adopted Jackie.

"Hey, since when were kids allowed in HQ?" The lagomorph looked absolutely love-struck when her eyes lay on Dudley. She was in awe about his beefy, German Shepherd-like chest, his muscular running legs, and the waffles he was holding in his right hand, his floppy ears that resembled hers slightly, and his face. His face was the best part to her, and his voice.

"Oh, hey Dudley," Kitty said boredly.

"Dudley…" Jackie whispered, still doe-eyed.

"Oh, Jackie, this is a co-worker of mine, Dudley Puppy." Dudley smiled brightly and said "Hey Jackie! Nice to meet you!" She shook his hand lightly, admiring his face still. Eventually she popped into reality and said "O-oh, hi Dudley…" she blushed lightly as this, though it was well-hidden by her fur.

"I like your dress! It reminds me of my mother in photos of her when she was younger." Jackie's ears wilted when he said she reminded him of his mother, but he quickly said "Er, uh…" He side-stepped to Kitty and whispered "What should I say?" She gave him an icy glance and turned to Jackie and said "What he meant to say was that he liked your dress and reminded him of his mother when she was young and pretty, right Dudley?" She turned to Dudley, fire in her eyes. She had heard from Max her niece had low self-esteem, so Kitty practically had steam coming from her ears.

"Uh, yeah. Exactly what I meant." Jackie's ears suddenly stood erect as she had been called pretty by Dudley, whether she knew it was coming directly from him or not.

"Uh, yeah, I love kids. Hey, you wanna take a tour of T.U.F.F.?" He eyes twinkled once more, thinking of this great chance to get to know her little crush, and said "Y-yes, of course!" He smiled and said "Great! First, let's start with the snack room!"

Jackie was going to enjoy her day, and made sure that Dudley fell in love with her.
