And now, since inspiration hit me- (holds up brick that says "Inspiration") which kind of hurt- I give you, the next chapter!
Reviewer Thanks
Fangface the second: I'm glad you liked the last chapter, and I think your addition of Edward Jr. in your story was a nice idea ;)
Disclaimer: As if life couldn't be any more cruel, I don't own Fangface…. Otherwise, we'd see more episodes on TV!

Chapter Four
Wolf vs. Cat
Fangface chased the were-cat down the street, determined to save his friends. "Hey, you over-grown pussycat! Gimme back my friends! (grr)" the werewolf snarled.
The were-cat, obviously taking distaste in being called a 'pussycat', paused and snarled at Fangface. "Who ya calling a pussycat, you mangy wolf? (hiss)" he retorted, throwing Biff and Kim to the ground and facing the werewolf.
"It… It talks!" Kim gasped, backing away from the cat-creature.
The were-cat turned to Kim, sneering. "I'm a 'he', girl. Not an 'it'."
"(grr) When I'm finished with you, you're going to be nothing but a flat-cat!" Fangface said, then ran toward the cat-creature.
"(hiss) Bring it on, pup!" The were-cat lunged, and soon he and Fangface were fighting like… dare I say 'cats and dogs'? (a/n: I know, bad pun :p)
Unfortunately, the were-cat was stronger than the werewolf, and had him pinned to the ground. But that didn't keep Fangface from trying to fight, as he struggled under his grip. "Do ya give up? (snarl) Do ya?"
The cat-creature raised his paw, sticking out razor-sharp claws. "No… I believe I've won, already," He prepared to claw Fangface's throat, but a rock flew overhead and hit him in the face, making him hiss in pain and aggravation.
"Leave him alone, you stupid cat!" Biff snapped, preparing to throw another rock.
The were-cat snarled, preparing to attack Biff next, but a whistle caught his attention, and he turned and saw a red-head kid. "Yo, Backbiter! Time to blow!" the kid called, then ran off.
The were-cat, Backbiter, looked down at Fangface and glowered. "We'll continue our little dance later, (hiss)" he said, then ran off, blending in with the shadows.
"Dance? (grr) I thought we were fighting!" Fangface said, confused.
"C'mon, lets get back to the Wolf Buggy and report this to Puggsy's dad!" Biff said, and they ran down the street.
Suddenly, Kim slowed down her pace, noticing something- no, someone- was missing. "Wait, where IS Puggsy?"

Whenever the moon came out and shone through his bedroom window, Baby Fangs would always look at it on purpose, just to turn into Fangpuss… and sneak out of his house to head to his favorite cousin's house, like tonight. The young werewolf loved visiting his cousin in the middle of the night, though he had to make sure he was Fangface and not Fangs, since his cousin didn't know about his identity- especially that one time when Fangs first saw him in Hawaii, and ran away scared. It was quite funny at first, though deep down he was a bit disappointed that his own cousin's human half was scared of him.
But, he still loved him anyway, and snuck out his window to see his cousin, promising himself that he'd be back before his parents woke up in the morning. As he ran down the sidewalk, he paused, watching as a gang of kids walked by, following a tall, blonde haired man in a snazzy suit, who had a short, dark-haired teen in his grasp…
…And it took Fangpuss two seconds too long to realize it was Puggsy! What's Pugs doing with that guy? I thought he was with Fangs! Fangpuss thought, recalling (as Baby Fangs) that the last time he saw Puggsy, he was with Fangs, driving down the road after dropping him off with his parents. Wanting to know what was going on, Fangpuss followed them.
"You're not going to get away with this, you know," Puggsy scoffed, sneering at the blonde-haired man and a kid that was wearing clothes much too big for him. "My friends will know I'm missing and come rescuefy me, and you guys will be in prison before you can say 'jumping ignorpotomas'!"
"Jumping igmanotorous. HA! There, I said it, and we're not in prison yet, Pugs!" The boy in large clothing boasted. "Now, shut up and keep walking!"
"Key-word: 'yet'. You will be soon enough, Hand-Me-Down… And FYI, it's pronounced 'ignorpotomas', you twit."
"And 'FYI', my name is DOWNEY! And I said SHUT UP!" The boy hit him with his fist, but Puggsy just grinned.
"You know, I'm getting the feeling that you took fighting lessons from your grandma,"
The boy, Downey, raised his fist to punch him again, but the blonde-haired man grabbed his wrist, preventing him from doing so. "Calm yourself, boy." he said. "Save it for when we get to my hide-out."
What's going on? Who are those guys, and what are they doing with Puggsy? Fangpuss thought, quietly growling at the boy who hit his friend.
"Yeah, by the way, where IS your hide-out?" One of the other boys, a kid with blonde hair and a jean-jacket, asked. "We've been walking for, like, maybe 15 minutes now!"
The blonde haired man grinned. "You'll see, boys, you'll see."
Fangpuss continued to follow them, but a crash from a nearby alley alerted the gang members and they turned around, forcing the young werewolf to hide behind a dumpster… and that's where he met her.

Toni had snuck out of her house to get some peace and quiet, like she did every night her aunt and uncle fought. They would scream at each other for hours, and sometimes even yell at her for no reason, so she decided it would be better to sleep outside on the roof, where things were more serene and where she could watch the view. She watched as the stars shown in the sky, a dog sniffed through someone's garbage, a gang of kids following a blonde guy as he dragged Puggsy down the street with a furry little creature sneaking behind them, a couple cars driving by-
"What the…?" Toni gasped, catching that last sentence and doing a double-take. "What's Puggsy doing with those guys?" She climbed down from the roof, deciding to investigate. She followed from a far enough distance to where she could spy on them, but couldn't make out all their words. All she could catch was something about a hide-out, but her attention then fell on the little creature following them, and she noticed how it looked similar to that werewolf, Fangface. I wonder if they're related, she thought (not knowing how right she was), and continued to follow-
-accidentally knocking over a trash can and making a *Crash!* sound. Quickly, she dove into some nearby bushes before the gang members could see her… and where she got a closer look at the little werewolf. She covered her mouth to stifle a gasp, and the little werewolf growled at her, but became quiet when they heard the gang members draw near.
"Eh, must've been a stupid cat," One of the boys said.
"Better hope so," A more adult-like voice said, and the sound of it sent shivers down Toni's spine. It was a calm voice, but not the good kind of calm- the kind of calm that meant that something wasn't right, that something bad was about to happen… a calm that came before the storm.
"Trust me, Eddy Jr." Another voice said. "No one else prowls these streets except me and my gang, and Backbiter is taking care of that mangy werewolf. So, unless it's just some bum walking around, we're good."
What? What happened to Fangface, and who's this Backbiter? Toni wondered, and looking at the little werewolf, she figured he was thinking the same.
"Fine, then," The chilling voice, which belonged to this 'Eddy Jr.' fellow, said. "I'll trust your word, Downey… but you'd better hope no one's following us, or your throat is MINE." The way he said it, Toni almost lost her breath in fear.
"Whatever."
They heard footsteps walk by, and waited until everything was quiet, then peeked out of the bushes to see that the coast was clear. "You know Fangface, don't you?" Toni asked the little werewolf, who nodded. "Good. Quick, go tell him that Puggsy's in trouble! I'll follow those goons to see where they're heading."
Fangpuss growled and nodded, then ran down the sidewalk, while Toni ran the other way to catch up with those creeps.

A/N: Sorry for the short chapter, guys. But, don't worry, I'll make it up by adding more suspense next time! In the meantime, please review, but don't flame (holds up stapler) or else!
