Chapter 2
"Noon"
Aliee scratched at her back picking at the scabs, Jake came up behind her and smacked her hands away.
"Sorry." Aliee apologized as she arched her back a little more.
"It's fine Aliee." The tom responded, looking over his shoulder to see that Murdock was out of ear shot.
Murdock and Chance where in the blistering hot garage waiting for any new cars to come in.
"Aliee I have an idea, could you possibly keep Murdock from finding out about our 'other job' until we can really get to know him better?" Jake asked quietly.
"What do you want me to do, take him out on a date." The she-kat laughed back sarcastically.
"I'm serious Aliee, can you do it? Just for a while, ya know just for a month or two, why don't you take him out and around the city." Jake said.
Suddenly a loud siren pierced through the air of the garage, Chance, Jake and Aliee looked at each other. Murdock looked around the garage confused, as his ears flattened against his head.
"What is that?" The husky yelled.
Aliee quickly went over to Murdock and took his hand lightly, grabbing a pair of keys off the work bench as she went.
"It's break time, let's go get something to eat." Aliee smiled as she lead him out of the garage and to her car.
Murdock climbed into the passenger seat buckling up his seat belt as Aliee put her seat belt on and started the car. Then much to his surprise, shot out of the yard kicking up gravel and making the tires screech loudly upon hitting the pavement.
Jake and Chance sighed loudly as they watched the car drive out of sight before closing down the grage and running to the secret hatch.
Inside the hidden hanger, Chance ran over to the phone hanging on one wall and answered it. The alarm cutting off when he did."What is it Miss. Briggs?" He questioned.
"T-Bone it's Dark Kat, he's attacking the nuclear power plant again, you must hurry before he gets to the core!" The Deputy Mayor shouted.
"We're on our way Miss. Briggs." Chance assured her before hanging up and running over to the lockers.
Jake was already there pulling on his gear, as soon as Chance had stripped down and suited up, he and Razor were running and leaping abord their jet, the Turbokat. Seconds later, the duo was roaring out of the undergroung hangar and toward the nuclear plant.
"Aliee's Car"
"So Murdock where do you want to go, anywhere special you want to eat?" Aliee asked, taking her eyes of the road for a split second to look at her passenger.
"No, not really, I'll leave it up to you Aliee." Murdock responed as he stared out the window.
"Are you sure?" Aliee queried.
"Yeah pretty much." The dog replied quietly.
"Hey, are you okay? I mean you and me are alike, I'm well... part dog and you are a pure breed husky. Um... I know what I've done is wrong, but I can't turn myself in, they'd kill me or send me to an insane asylum. I just can't do that." Aliee sighed as she held out one hand towards the husky.
"Werewolf or not, your killed a person and all those animals!" He blurted back.
Aliee fell silent for the rest of the drive to a dinner located on the outskirts of the city. Murdock watched Aliee's cold, hard expression as she parked and got out.
Murdock rubbed the back of his head before following the she-kat. Aliee had opened the door to the Dinner and gone in not bothring to wait for him.
He found her sitting at a booth in one corner of the dinner and joined her at it. He had just sat down opposite her, when a waitress came up to the table, setting their menus down in front of them.
Aliee grabbed her menu off the table fiercely, looking it over briefly with cold eyes before setting it back down.
"Hey Aliee, what have you been up to lately, haven't seen you around in a while." The she-kat serving them asked.
"Sorry Nancy, it's been awfully busy at the yard." Aliee replied resting one elbow on the table.
"Ah, well who is this?" Nancy inquired.
"This is Murdock Dawgson, he's working at the yard now." Aliee answered politely.
"Hello." The husky added.
"Hi, so have you decided what you want to order." The waitress requested as she held up her paper tablet and pin.
"I'll just have what I usually get Nancy." Aliee said.
Nancy wrote down Aliee's order then turned to Murdock, glancing into his hazel eyes.
"I'll just have a cheese burger and a coke." Murdock stated.
Nancy wrote it down then turned away and walked toward the kitchen.
Aliee looked at Murdock quietly as Nancy brought back two cokes with straws, setting them down in front of the two before quietly retreating.
Murdock stared back at Aliee taking a quick sip of his coke, while Aliee sucked down half of her's in one gulp.
"Thirsty?" Murdock asked with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.
"Just a little, after last night I am extremely hungry." The she-kat replied as she took a smaller sip of her coke.
"I have a question." The husky stated as he pushed his coke away from him.
"What is it?" Aliee asked.
"What's it like to be a werewolf." Murdock asked lowly staring directly into her eyes.
Aliee's fists tightened together before she sighed deeply and looked away from the husky to began twiddling her thumbs.
"At first, there's just pain, then the coldness and being alone." Aliee whispered quietly.
"Wow, must be tough on you." Murdock replied softly.
"Then the black, hard, lust for killing someone or something kicks in. It's usually easy to control, but when something provokes it completely.... I find you completely appealing to me, imprinted upon you, it's exactly like..." She stopped suddenly and stared lovingly into his eyes. "Like love at first sight." She finished as she continued to look into his eyes.
Murdock blushed wildly as he gazed back a soft light lighting up his eyes. Aliee had to look away when the dog reached out and took her hand softly.
"You don't find it weird that you love me, but you've only known me for two days?" The husky asked.
"Yes, I know it is weird, but it's in my nature and I can't help it." The she-kat sighed back.
-
When Nancy brought their food, setting the plates down in front of the she-kat and husky, Aliee imedmediately dug into it. Murdock looked at his burger then to Aliee. The she-kat was already half done with her plate of food, taking the food from her fork, then taking a sip of her coke.
Murdock stared at Aliee as he brought his burger up to his mouth and took a large bite out of it.
As he watched, Aliee licked her lips then burped loudly."Excuse me." She giggled.
Murdock looked at Aliee stunned, but laughed all the same as Aliee scooped up more food onto her fork and bit down on it more softly now.
Nancy came back a few minutes later and set the bill down on the end of the table next to Aliee. The kat looked at the bill then quickly pulled out her wallet before Murdock could grab the bill, a crooked smile crossing her face in triumph.
"Quick kitty." The husky teased.
"That's not even the half of it." Aliee teased back as she continued to smile crookedly.
Aliee stood up and went over to the counter to pay the bill with Murdock at her side ready to snatch it out of her hands. But when he tried, Aliee quickly pulled it away from him and set it on the counter, as she paid.
Once Aliee paid, the two left and went back to her car. Once they were both in, Aliee started the car and pulled out of the parking lot before headed farther into the city.
After twenty minutes of driving around and pointing out some of the sights to Murdock. Aliee saw the Turbokat fly overhead and toward the Salvage yard. Guessing that it would be alright to head back themselves, she went around the block and headed home.
-
When they arrived, Jake and Chance came out of the garage to greet them. Chance had a small cut along one side of his neck that luckily wasn't deep enough to kill him, while Jake limped out of the garage.
"So, how was your break." The slim tom asked as he limped over to Murdock and Aliee as they got out of the car.
"It was good of course, and Nancy says hi." Aliee responded.
"What happened to you two?" Murdock questioned.
"Oh I... tripped on a muffler laying next to the workbench." Jake lied, putting a false smile across his face.
"That sucks I guess. What about you Chance?" Murdock replied.
"I tripped over Jake and caught the cornoer of the bench." Chance answered as he crossed his arms over his chest.
He stared at Aliee for a few seconds before motioning to her to follow him into the garage so they could talk.
Aliee followed Chance silently, listening to the gravel crunching under their shoes. Chance stopped and turned aroung to face her once they were out of ears shot of Jake and Murdock.
"How long do you think you can keep doing this?" The big ttabby questioned as he looked out at Murdock.
"I don't know, I think I can keep going for months if I have to, it's nice to take a break for a while." Aliee replied.
"Be serious Aliee, how long." Chance demanded harshly.
"Four or Five months. One of you is bound to come back badly hurt eventually, and then we won't be able to hide it anymore. It depends Chance, I'm not really sure about it, but you're going to have use me for something eventually." Aliee growled back loudly.
Murdock and Jake looked into the grage when they heard Chance and Aliee arguingto see that Aliee was trembling with anger. Chance rubbed the back of his neck as the she-kat trembled like a leaf in a heavy wind. Aliee closed her eyes tightly trying to hold herself in check.
"Aliee are you all right?" Chance questioned.
Aliee opened her eyes widely, revealing that her irises were gone, consumed by her black pupils. Chance immediately began to slowly back away as Aliee snarled. Chance continued to back away as the corners of Aliee's mouth twisted up bearing her long white fangs.
"Jake." Chance yelled as he turned and ran out of the garage.
Jake and Murdock turned towards Chance in time to see him grab the strap hanging from the bottom of the garage door and yank the door closed as he ran under it, while Aliee slamed straight into it.
Jake and Murdock ran up beside Chance as he locked the door. Murdock stared at the door as it rattled and listened to the angry snarls that came from behind it.
When the door finally stopped rattling and the snarling diminished, Jake, Murdock and Chance went through the front door into the lobby then through door that led into the garage.
They found Aliee crouched down lowly in a corner with her arms and tail wrapped around herself breathing lightly, but thankfully the trembling had stopped completely.
Jake walked up to the she-kat and touched her shoulder lightly. She turned her head up and looked up at the cinnamon furred tom in response.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't keep myself under control." She whimpered.
"It's alright Aliee." Jake soothed as he pulled her up off the floor.
Murdock looked to Chance to find he had his arms crossed over his chest and his head down. Ashamed for pushing Aliee over the edge of her control.
Aliee removed Jakes hand from her shoulder gently then swiftly moved between Chance and Murdock. She was already through the door before the two looked at her. Chance rubbed the back of his neck then scratched at his left ear.
"That is just one of the many times I've done that to her." Chance sighed as he looked from Jake to Murdock then back to the floor.
Murdock's ears flattened against his head as he looked at Chance. Jake just sighed deeply before walked around Murdock and back though the door the three or them had came through in the first place.
-
Aliee lay curled up on her bed with her head resting on one of her large pillows. Jake made a quick glance in at the black she-kat as he passed by. Aliee closed her eyes tightly forcing herself to fall asleep instantly.
Chance was sitting on the couch alone while Murdock waited in the garage quietly by himself.
"It's going to be interesting living here." The husky commented to him self.
"You have no idea how interesting it can get around here." Jake replied calmly as he came up next to the dog.
Murdock looked down at the short brown tom-kat next to him. "From what just happened no... no I don't really know."
Jake laughed softly as a grin crossed Murdock's muzzle in approval of Jake's laughter. Jake patted the husky on the back before he left to go unlock the grage door.
Jake had gotten the door open just in time as a familiar green sedan drove into the yard, it's breaks shrieking loudly as it came to a stop in front of the garage.
A blonde haired she-kat stepped out of the driver's side wearing a pink business suit that came down to her knees and her long hair came down to the mid-point of her back.
"Hey Callie." Jake greeted politely.
"Hey Jake, I'm having some trouble with my breaks could you take a look at them?" Asked Callie as she stepped towards the garage.
"Of course Callie." Jake replied walking toward her car.
Murdock just stood there silently as Callie entered the garage. Jake looked back at him as he climbed into Callie's car and drove it into the garage and onto the lift.
After coming to a halt, Jake took the keys from the ignition and climbed out. While Jake was doing this, Murdock watched the blonde she-kat wearily, as she stared eyed up the build of his body and the curly brown and white tail that came from out of his coveralls.
Jake watched Callie for a moment as she continued to stare at the dog before flicking a switch on the wall that made the lift raise into the air.
Murdock watched Jake as he walked under the car and inspected the breaks.
"Callie, you need new brake pads." Jake said coming out from under the car after a few seconds inspection. Tapping one wheel with his finger to make the point.
Callie sighed deeply as she massaged her temples between her finger tips before looking back at Jake.
"How long will it take?" Callie questioned.
"Thirty minutes to hour at the most." Jake replied.
"Okay I have time to spare. Is Aliee here Jake? I would like to talk to her." Callie responded.
"Oh she's inside taking a nap, it's been a slow day." Jake answered.
"May I go in and talk to her then." Callie asked.
"Of course." Jake shrugged.
Callie walked away from Jake and into the house part of the garage. Murdock sighed deeply as she left causing Jake to laugh loudly at him as, he lowered the car a bit so he could reach the brake pads more easily.
"What's so funny Jake." Murdock growled.
"The way Callie kept staring at you, it was amusing." Jake cackled.
"Aliee's room"
Callie entered the dark room and looked down at the black she-kat lying on the top of the sheets before sitting on the edge of the bed next to her. The movement of the bed waking the sleeping kat, Aliee's eyes snapped open and stared up at the blonde she-kat sitting next to her.
"Hello Callie." Aliee greeted tiredly.
"Hey Aliee." The Deputy Mayor replied.
Aliee yawned widely showing off her pearl white teeth. Callie couldn't help but to stare at Aliee's fangs. When Aliee caught the stare, she closed her mouth and looked at Callie questioningly.
"Something wrong?" The black furred kat asked tilting her head to the side.
"Aliee, I've been looking through some files, and I came across you're Enforcer file. It says that you would go missing for a few days after a full moon. If I din't know any better, I would have said that's like what a werewolf would do." Callie said.
Aliee's ears perked up as she looked at the other she-kat, her eyes filled with confusion and misunderstanding.
Aliee laughed nervously before answering. "Callie I know I would do that... I'd just get drunk every full moon and then not be able to make it to work for a few days." Aliee fibbed.
"Oh, I thought you might have had something to do with the killing and the slaughtering last night." Callie admitted.
"No! I wouldn't do something like that, I know better than to do that. I'm not a monster!" Aliee continued.
Callie looked at the black she-kat slightly stunned and was about to say something else when she was interrupted by Jake's voice as he came in and stood in the doorway.
Callie stood up off the bed and walked towards Jake,but before she got there, Aliee had come up behind her in half a second.
"I didn't do it Callie." Aliee hissed in a cold, harsh voice before pusing her way past.
Jake watched Aliee alarmed as she walked away, then turned to Callie confused.
"What was that all about?" He questioned.
"I just asked her about something and I think she took it offensively." Callie responded as Jake walked her out.
Aliee found Murdock sitting at the kitchen table and joined him, resting her head down on the table with her ears flattened to her head. Her hands searched out Murdock's and held them tightly in her own.
The husky looked at Aliee confused as her grip tightened until the bones in his hands began to creek.
"Aliee, your crushing my fingers." Murdock whispered into her ear softly.
"Sorry, I'm just having trouble." Aliee whispered back quietly.
After Callie left, everything went back to normal as Aliee became her old cherry, strong, loyal self again.
"A Few weeks later"
Murdock scratched his head roughly as he lay in bed before rolling onto his side. He nuzzled his pillow softly and took in the scent of fresh lavender that wafted off the pillow case.
Murdock looked at his alarm clock and saw that it was one in the morning, the rustling of the bed sheets only made it harder for him to fall asleep, when he finally did, he began to snore loudly.
In her room down the hall, Aliee opened her eyes when she heard the loud snores coming from Murdock's room. She slid out of bed then opened her door and silently moved down the hall.
Aliee walked up to Murdock's door, opening it quietly, she slipped in closing it behind her. Murdock continued to snore as she stepped up to him in her collared shirt and underwear.
Aliee had a nasal strip which she took from the bathroom and had just put it on his muzzle to keep him from snoring. When Murdock suddenly reached out and grabbed Aliee roughly from where she was leaning over him.
Murdock pulled her down onto the bed before he climbed on top of her, putting one hand around her neck and growling down at her.
"Murdock let go, it's only me." Aliee choked as she reach up and tugged on his shirt.
Murdock let go of Aliee's neck but continued to hover over her, his eyes having adjusted to the darkness of his room. Aliee's bare legs brushed the open place between Murdock's white t-shirt and boxers. Murdock pushed her leg down and blushed a bright pink when he touched her bare knee.
"Sorry, I thought you were a burglar." Murdock replied in a whisper.
"It's okay Murdock." Aliee responded leaning up against the husky.
Murdock sniffed her shoulder as he twirled his fingers through her hair, taking in small whiffs of her scent. Aliee slide out from under him and off the bed then walked the door and opened it all the way.
"Enjoy the rest of your night Murdock." She purred as she left, closing the door behind her.
