"You know..." Kitty whispered, as she crawled along the grass then stopped before a clearing, "This isn't the first time I tried saving an arctic fox..."
"Really?" Reef whispered back. She was crawling right beside Kitty. They were both trying to stay low under the pine trees, while Donita sat out tanning in front of her landed jet.
"Really." Kitty said with a slight giggle, "But the first time was a bit hectic..." she looked at Donita, "But we'll talk about that later..."
Reef nodded, "Right. Let's focus on getting Chili back."
"DABIO! Get me some more ice tea! With lemon this time!" Donita screamed from her way-to-lavished beach chair.
"Yes Donita!" you could hear Dabio answer from the sidelines.
"Okay, so how do we get into the jet?" Reef whispered, looking at Kitty.
Kitty's eyes narrowed as she looked over the area, "Well..." she started, "To be honest, I don't have much of a plan... so... we'll improvise!"
Reef nodded her head a little, "Um... and how will we do that?"
"Like this..." Kitty said as she shrunk down into a flying squirrel, scurried across the grass, and then under Donita's chair. Reef watched with wide, curious eyes.
Dabio ran over to Donita, being careful not to spill the ice tea he carried, "Duh, here Donita."
"It's about time..." Donita groaned and took the glass away from him, "Where's the lemon?"
Dabio simply held out a lemon for her. Donita groaned, "Dabio... I meant, a lemon 'slice'... ah, forget it..." and she grabbed the lemon and threw it at the tree line.
Reef gasped as the lemon nearly hit her, but she quickly covered her mouth.
Donita hearing the gasp, sat up straight and put her drink down, "What... was... that?"
Kitty knew she'd have to do something fast. So, she quickly jumped up and glided into Donita's hair... which was where she was not at all expecting to land...
Donita screamed and jumped up, "AHH! WHAT'S IN MY HAIR?"
Kitty popped her squirrel head out and coughed, "Ugh, so... much hairspray! Hard... to breath!"
Donita screamed even more upon seeing a flying squirrel, "DABIO! GET IT! GET IT OFF!"
Reef couldn't help but giggle; it was actually really funny to watch. But, she quickly took this as her chance to get into the jet. She tiptoed around everyone, -and since they were all fussing around, they didn't notice her- and sneaked into the jet.
Once Kitty saw Reef had gotten in, she quickly glided out of Donita's hair, and into the jet.
Donita sat back down on her chair with a sigh of relief, as she looked as if she would faint, and Dabio fanned her with a magazine.
Then something came to Miss Donata's attention, "Wait... that little creepy chipmunk thing flew into my jet! DABIO! Go squash it!"
"Yes Donita ma'am!" Dabio said as he dropped the magazine and ran into the jet.
"Reef? Reef where are you?" Kitty called out, trying not to raise her voice to much. She was now her human self again, wondering through the halls.
"Kit! Over here!" Reef's whispering voice came from a room.
Kitty followed the whisper, and wondered into a small room, "Find anything?"
"Yeah..." Reef said, her voice showing concern and worry, "This..." and she held up Chili. But, Chili didn't seem alive... he actually seemed as if he was stone.
"Aw, crud... he was hit be suspended animation..." Kitty grumbled as she took Chili in her hands and turned him over.
"What?" Reef asked.
"Donita froze him, in other words..." Kitty said placing him on the table.
Reef looked as if she was about to cry, "We'll be able to turn him back to normal, right?"
"Yeah, but I'd need Aviva's help... I don't know how to work the suspended animation machine..." Kitty said, blinking.
Reef nodded, "Okay, then we'll take him to the Tortuga."
But suddenly, Dabio rounded the corner with a fly swatter, "What the? You aren't squirrels!"
Kitty blinked, "Um, that's kind of obvious..."
Dabio chucked the fly swatter at them, and Reef screamed as she dunked, grabbing Chili. The fly swatter went right above her head.
Kitty quickly urged Reef to run, "Go! Go! We gotta get out!"
Reef nodded, and started running to the door with her fox in her arms, and with Kitty right behind her, as Dabio picked up a table and threw it at them.
The table barely missed them as they ran out the door and down the hall.
But Donita happened to be walking into the jet, just as the girls were about to run out, "Dabio, why on earth are you making so much noise- AHH!"
Reef and Kitty skidded to a stop, "AHHHH!" and luckily they didn't have a collision.
Donita looked from Chili, to Reef, then to Kitty. She then growled at Kitty, "YOU AGAIN?"
Kitty glared, "Yes, me, and we're taking this fox back!"
Donita smirked, "Fat chance..."
Suddenly one of Donita's glass tables came flinging up from behind, and hit Kitty knocking her straight out of the jet.
"KITTY!" Reef screamed.
Donita looked back to Dabio, who had flung the table, "Dabio, take that fox from the girl, then throw her out with her friend."
Dabio nodded, and did just that; he ripped Chili from Reef's arms, then hurled her out the door.
As Reef sat up and groaned, Donita's cackle could be heard as the jet's entrance closed. Then, a few seconds later, the jet flew away, leaving behind only a dust cloud.
This was terrible, Reef had lost Chili, again!
Reef coughed, and looked over to Kitty, who was just laying there motionless amongst glass shards, "Oh no..." Reef mumbled shaking her head and she quickly went over to her friend's side.
Kitty was alive, but out cold. Also, considering the table was glass, she had a few minor cuts here and there. There was only one cut, that wasn't minor, which was on her arm.
"C'mon! Wake up!" Reef said, shaking her a little. She needed help.
Sighing, Reef took Kitty's wrist to check her pulse... but then suddenly, to her delight she then noticed Kitty's Creature Pod on her bracelet!
"Ha! King me!" Chris Kratt said triumphantly from across the checkered board.
Martin Kratt blinked, "You cheated!"
The Kratt bros and the Tech team were all sitting in the main room of the Tortuga. Not really doing anything at the moment...
"You were watching me the whole time! How could I cheat?" Chris asked laughing.
Martin pouted, "Ugh... never mind... I hate checkers..."
"Only because I always win." Chris said with a smirk.
"If you guys are done with that," Aviva started with a giggle, "I need you guys to test out the Cheetah creature power suit, I just finished updating it."
"Please, anything to get me away from this game..." Martin said, practically begging.
"Hey guys! Incoming call from Kitty!" Koki called over, running her hands over the keyboard of the computer. She turned to look at the screen, as did everyone else.
"Hey Kit- wait... Kitty?" Aviva asked blinking.
"When did Kitty shrink, and like, get black hair?" Jimmy Z asked staring at the screen.
Of course it was not Kitty, her being unconscious and all, it was Reef.
"Wild Kratts?" Reef asked blinking.
"Here." Martin and Chris said in unison, both still a little confused.
"Well, hi... I'm Reef, and... well first of all, I just want you two to know I'm such a big BIG fan!"
"And... that's why you stole Kitty's communicator?" Martin asked slowly.
Ah, losing the point Reef... stay focused, stay focused... Reef told herself, "No! No! I didn't steal it! I'm just using it, well, because I need help, and so does Kitty!"
"What happened?" Koki asked, trying to get their location.
"Well... it's a long story, but all you guys need to know is that Kitty's hurt, and I can't carry her all the way back to you! I don't even know where the Tortuga is!" At this point, tears were filling her eyes, "And by know Donita's half way across the forest with my pet, and I don't know if I'll ever see him again!"
"It's okay Reef! Calm down!" Aviva said, trying her best to sooth the girl, "We'll be there right away!"
"Got the coordinates! It's in a clearing too, where the Tortuga can land!" Koki called from the computer, "Jimmy go up and get driving!"
JZ nodded and quickly ran up to the head of the Tortuga, to start driving.
"Please hurry..." Was the last thing Reef said, before she shut off the connection.
"Oh dear lord, what happened?" Martin asked as he bent over and picked up Kitty from the ground.
"Well... that guy named Dabio threw a glass table at us... and it hit her..." Reef said, voice getting quieter, and quieter. She was experiencing mixed emotions; One, she was worried sick about Kitty and Chili, and two, she was excited to be talking to the Kratt Brothers!
"Ouch... well don't worry, we'll get Kitty back to the Tortuga." Chris reassured Reef, kneeling down and putting a hand on her shoulder.
Reef blinked, "But..."
"But what?" Chris asked, as Martin brought Kitty inside the Tortuga.
"Well... what about Chili?"
"Who's Chili?"
"My Arctic fox... Donita took him from me, and put him in animation suspense or something!" Reef said frantically.
Chris nodded slowly, standing up straight, "Alright... in that case, you'll be coming back to the Tortuga with us. We'll get Chili back."
