I do not own T.U.F.F. Puppy, it belongs to the genius Butch Hartman and Nickelodeon.

This happens between chapter 9 and 10. Kiwi_Jr already told Dudley and Kitty about his origins and The Observer made his appearance. Kiwi_Jr got some of his power back.

Water hazard

It was afternoon on T.U.F.F. HQ and it was a slow day. Villains were quiet and Weskor was hiding. Dudley and Kiwi_Jr were talking in the middle of the room and Kitty was on her computer. Suddenly, Dudley stopped talking and stood still looking to the door without blinking.

Kiwi_Jr: What's wrong?

Dudley didn't answer, so Kiwi_Jr looked to the door and saw what was wrong with Dudley. It was Eric, The water delivery guy.

Kiwi_Jr: Oh no.

He looked to Kitty. She already saw him and was staring at him with a love glare.

Dudley: Just change the water and leave! – He muttered.

But after changing the water he didn't leave. He headed to where kitty was and talked to her. Both Kiwi_Jr and Dudley looked away. Dudley never told him that he liked Kitty but it was obvious. Kiwi_Jr guessed how he could be feeling, like being stabbed in the heart, all the butterflies of his stomach falling dead every time he saw Kitty with Eric.

Kitty: Hey guys!

Kiwi_Jr jumped by the surprise, he didn't heard Kitty approaching.

Dudley: Hey Kitty…

Kitty: Guess what, Eric just asked me out!

Heartbroken! Kiwi_Jr noticed this.

Kiwi_Jr: He did?

Kitty: Yes, we are meeting outside so we don't have another accident with Keswick's hammer. He asked me to leave the communicator so nothing interrupt our date!

Kiwi_Jr: He asked what?

Kitty: Yes, so we can be just the two of us… Isn't it romantic? Dudley, are you ok?

Dudley was looking to the floor, he looked at Kitty when he heard his name.

Dudley: Yes, it's just… I have to go… Over there!

He walked away.

Kitty: What's with him?

Kiwi_Jr: I think it's…

Kitty: Oh no, it's getting late! Here, take my communicator, I have to go!

Kiwi_Jr: But Kitty!

Kitty: I'll talk to you later, I must go!

And with that, Kitty left running. Dudley watched her leave, he was devastated.

Kiwi_Jr: Dudley… Dudley!

Dudley: What? Oh… It's you…

Kiwi_Jr: Listen, I have a bad feeling about this, we have to follow her!

Dudley: We can't just follow her, it's not right…

Kiwi_Jr: Dudley, I think she could be in danger, this sounds suspicious!

Dudley: Kitty it's smart, she could know if there was something suspicious.

Kiwi_Jr: She's blind because of that guy, she won't suspect anything, he have to go now!

Dudley didn't need to be asked again, he ran behind Kiwi_Jr. When they got to the parking lot, they saw Kitty leaving on the T.U.F.F. Mobile. So they got to another car and followed her being careful not to let her know that she was being followed.

They followed her to the docks.

Dudley: What a strange place for a date…

Kiwi_Jr: Alright, she stopped. Let's approach in silence.

They got out from the car and started to approach in silence and hiding, looking for anything out of normal. They saw Kitty enter in one of the many warehouses there, but as soon an she entered it closed.

Dudley: Oh no, Kitty!

Kiwi_Jr: I knew it!

Inside the warehouse

Kitty: What was that?

Eric: I knew you would come!

Kitty: Eric? Where are you?

Eric came out from the shadows.

Eric: Right here, thank you for coming. – He pushed a button and a cylinder fell from the ceiling, trapping Kitty inside.

Kitty: What are you doing?

Water was starting to fill the cylinder.

Eric: Isn't it obvious?

Kitty: But why?

Eric: You are the only one who can stop my plans of Flooding Petropolis, I have to take you out of the way!

Kitty: But… But I thought you liked me…

Eric: I did… But I love being bad more!

Kitty: I can't believe this, you…!

The water prevented her from talking.

Eric: Enjoy your last moments Kitty Katswell!

He heard something breaking, he looked up and saw pieces of the ceiling falling, he dodged them and looked to the hole.

Eric: Who's there?

Dudley: Hai-Ge-Ge!

Dudley jumped inside, once there he saw Kitty drowning.

Dudley: Kitty!

Eric: There's nothing you can do by yourself!

Kiwi_Jr: He's not alone. – He said while jumping inside. – I can't say I'm surprised, you seemed to enjoy too much fighting Dudley when you where under Birdbrain's control.

Eric: Who are you?

Kiwi_Jr: It doesn't matter. Dudley, find a way to release Kitty, I'll take care of the Pretty Boy!

Dudley ran to where Kitty was and tried to break the glass. Eric tried to get him but Kiwi_Jr punched him on the face, throwing him to some boxes.

Kiwi_Jr: You should worry about me Pretty Boy!

Eric stood up and took a big Water Gun he had.

Eric: You'll regret that, take this!

Erick pulled the trigger and shot water at a high speed. He didn't know that Kiwi_Jr could control the water, making it stop and returning it back to his owner. Eric didn't have time to react and was hit by his own water and hit the wall he had behind him with his head, knocking him out.

Kiwi_Jr: Thank you for the water! Dudley, move! – He threw the water to the cylinder, he transformed the liquid in ice before hitting it and broke it. Kitty fell with the rest of the water.

Dudley rushed to her – Kitty! – He checked her hear beat.

Dudley: I barely can hear her heart!

Kiwi_Jr: Leave it to me! – He used his water bending to take all the water she swallowed. But she was still without breathing.

Dudley: Kitty? Kitty, wake up, please don't do this to me!

There was a few moments of silence, until she finally coughed.

Dudley smiled. – Kitty!

She slowly opened her eyes. – Dudley? What's…?

Dudley hugged her tight. – Kitty, what a relief! I'm so glad you are ok!

Kitty: Dudley please… I can't…

Kiwi_Jr: Dudley give her room to breathe, she almost drawn.

Dudley broke the hug. – Sorry, it's just I'm so happy!

Kiwi_Jr: Dudley, call The Chief and tell him to come here and take Eric into custody!

Dudley: Sure thing Kiwi_Jr!

The Chief arrived with reinforcements in no time and took Eric into custody. Dudley personally put him on the jail van while Kitty was talking with Kiwi_Jr.

Kitty: I still can't believe this, how could I be so stupid!

Kiwi_Jr: It's not your fault Kitty, you were blind because you were in love with him.

Kitty: I don't want to be in love in love ever again!

Kiwi_Jr: Don't say that, there's someone out there who will treat you like you deserve, and who knows, he may be closer than you think. – He couldn't stop himself by looking at Dudley after saying this. Kitty saw him and looked at Dudley, she didn't noticed it before but he was cute and always trying to protect her. She didn't knew before that she was in love with him.

Kitty: Maybe… But I need to be alone for a while.

Kiwi_Jr: Ok, if you want to.

Kitty: I need to get back to my apartment.

They walked to where Dudley was.

Dudley: Hey Kitty… You'll be ok?

Kitty: Yes, I just want to sleep now… I need to go to my apartment.

Dudley: Let me take you, please!

Kitty thought for a few moments…

Kitty: Ok ok, you can take me!

Dudley: Alright!

Kitty walked to the T.U.F.F. Mobile and Dudley watched her walk.

Kiwi_Jr: So… You don't feel anything for her, huh?

Dudley: What… What are you talking about?

Kiwi_Jr: You can't fool me my friend, I recognize love when I see it.

Dudley didn't denied it this time, he just looked at Kitty again, admiring her beauty.

Dudley: I… I have to go, Kitty it's waiting for me. Talk to you later! – He ran towards the Mobile.

Kiwi_Jr: Drive safetly!

So, you can guess that I don't like the water delivery guy and this is my way to end Kitty's crush on him, and start her crush on Dudley, hope you liked it and don't forget to review! ;)
