Chapter 6

Callie awoke from her sleep with a slight groan.

" Err, what happened?" She questioned. The deputy mayor felt something tight around her chest and arms. Callie looked down and discovered she had been bound tightly with a thick string of rope.

" What! What's going on?" She exclaimed. Callie felt warmth on her back and shifted her head to see what it was with her peripheral vision. The deputy mayor discovered she wasn't the only one bound by the rope. Tied with her, back to back, was Mayor Manx.

" Mayor!" Callie shouted. The old orange kat was still out cold, his head was down and his eyes were closed. The kat breathed in and out softly and slowly, keeping a smooth rhythm.

" Mayor Manx, wake up." Callie begged. " Please wake up." She shifted and shook her body, shaking Manx as a result of it. The old orange kat let out a soft groan, a sign of his dreams being disturbed.

" WAKE UP!" Callie shouted, rocking side to side rapidly. Manx was jolted awake, opening his eyes and yawning.

" I here by dedicate this bridge to…"He began until he back fully awake and his mind registered what was going on around him. Manx looked back and spotted Callie.

" Callie? What is going on here?" Manx asked with a worried accent.

" I don't know." Callie answered. " The last thing I remember is the Pastmaster appearing and grasping me."

" So that was the lightning." Manx figured. " Wait! THE PASTMASTER'S HERE!"

" Yes, and we have to get out of here." Callie responded. " Help me get out of these ropes." Manx nodded in agreement and began to squirm and shift his body around. The two wiggled and squirmed in hopes to try and free themselves. To the kats joy, the ropes began to loosen and give way. Callie felt that she now had a chance and shifted the rope upward, passing it over her head and freeing her from their grasp.

" I'm out." She said. Manx easily got out of the bindings, since Callie escaping gave more space. The Deputy Mayor helped the Mayor to his feet.

" Alright, we have to find a way out of here." Callie said. Manx nodded in agreement, keeping his mouth shut so no loud noises came out of it. Callie saw his eyes wonder around, and freeze. His eyes widened and he let out a whimper. Callie expected the worst and turned around. Before her was a large suit of metallic armor. It was shining, even in the shadowy darkness of the room. The style of the armor suggested that it was form the middle ages. The armored stranger grabbed the deputy mayor's shoulders as she examined it.

" Now now my dear. You can't leave yet." It said in a familiar voice.

" Pastmaster! Let me go!" Callie shrieked. She broke out of his grasp and smacked the helmet, making it fly off. Callie was too much in shock to notice the throbbing pain in her hand. She saw that under the helmet was nothing. The armor was empty, and moving by Pastmaster's will.

" Rebind her and the buffoon!" The troll's voice rang from within the empty armor. The steel armor grabbed Callie and held her as she kicked and screamed. The mayor turned to run in his normal cowardly fashion, but was stopped when another living suit of armor appeared.

" Ah…Oi." Manx responded as he fainted onto the ground, the situation too much of a shock for him.

And people wonder why we fund the Enforcers so much. Callie thought with disappointment. The suit that held her walked towards the fallen Manx and its partner retrieved the rope. They began to bind then once again when their master's voice sounded.

" Hold your ground and guard them. A new pest is coming to free them." The Pastmaster ordered, his voice echoing through the room.

New…pest? Callie questioned herself as the rope was wrapped around her tighter then before. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The three SWAT Kats ran swiftly down the museum stairs. Level after level flew past them as they made their way to the first floor.

" Never knew this place was so elaberate." Razor commented.

" At least we don't have much to go." T-bone stated, pointing down to show the end of the stairs. A thought came into Blaze's mind when they reached the bottom.

" Um guys, don't you think this place would have some kind of...?" Blaze began when T-bone kicked open the door that led into the museum. They saw that the room had very few artifacts in it, but all the other exits were sealed with thick steal walls.

" Security system." Blaze finished. T-bone shook his head side to side in disappointment.

" Great, just another thing to get in our way." He said. The burly tabby looked over to Razor. The two seemed like they shared the same mind, because Razor smiled and nodded to his partner. Blaze watched curiously as the two walked up to one of the steel walls and pointed their glovatrix's to it. A small white flame came out of the tips of the glove and burned strait through the metal wall. T-bone arced his arm right while razor arced his left at the came time, cutting a circle into the wall and making an entrance.

" Just like when we were in the future, huh." Razor commented.

" The future?" Blaze questioned. T-bone and Razor remembered the young kat was present and chuckled to themselves.

" We'll tell ya about it when we're done." T-bone replied. Razor looked to his glove and pressed a switch, turning on the Mini Kat tracker.

" Lets see, they should be...huh!" Razor remarked.

" What's up?" T-bone asked. Razor showed hit the tracker. It showed a map of the entire floor and small red spots.

" Last time I scanned, I only got three biomasses." Razor explained. " But now there's much more."

" So? We still know where they are." Blaze responded.

" How do we know they didn't move?" Razor pointed out. Blaze looked downcast, feeling really stupid. T-bone frowned at this and spoke up.

" We don't know if they moved or not." T-bone said. " But we at least know they were there. If we search those areas, we can either find them or a clue to where they were taken."

" Alright then, we'll keep going with plan A." Razor replied. He looked over to Blaze. " When you find Callie and the Mayor, get to safety before you come for us."

" Yes sir!" Blaze joked, saluting to the ginger kat. Razor frowned while T-bone gave a small hearty laugh.

" Remember, radio contact at all times." T-bone reminded. Blaze nodded and went to the south wall. He followed the same procedure his partners did and disappeared through the entrance he made. T-bone and Razor continued into the next room. There were staged sets that showed the evolution of katkind. One showed three cavekats sitting around a fire.

" Like looking in a mirror, eh T-bone?" Razor joked. T-bone huffed and looked closely at one of the figures.

" You need to get your eyes checked buddy." T-bone remarked. " Looks nothing like me." The ginger and tabby SWAT Kats turned away, unaware that the eyes of that same dummy were following them.

Bombay Exhibit

The Pastmaster smashed his paw through another glass case, the clear shards glittering in the din light as they flew into the air and scattered on the ground, chiming as they hit. The orange skeletal put his hand through the newly made hole and picked up an ancient text. His eye scanned the words and a scowl lined his lips.

" USLESS!" He shouted, tossing the tome aside. It's here; I know it's here. So why is it that the tome wish to hide from me? He thought with the scowl still fresh on his face. The Pastmaster reached into his cloak and pulled out his pocket watch. On the glass on the watch was not his reflection, but what one of his servants was seeing. The image showed the blond and ginger SWAT Kat, just finishing a patrol on the room. The Pastmaster smiled sinisterly. He had been thwarted so many times by those two meddling mortals. When he tried to turn back the clock on Megakat City, when he was going to marry Calista and make Megalith City his kingdom, the time he sent them into a dark future, and when they defeated the Katchu Pichu mummies. Each time, he had been to the brink of death while they escaped unscathed. But not this time.

" Show me the other thorn." The Pastmaster commanded. The watched shimmered with violet energy till it showed Blaze, cutting a fresh hole into a steel security wall.

" Very well. It does not matter whether he dies now or not, but the other two," He began, the sinister smile becoming more insane. " I want to see them grovel and beg for mercy before I send them to their doom. Now my servants, reveal yourselves and strike!" >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Upon the Pastmaster's command, the three cavekats began to move. They rose up slowly, not making a sound even when they began to move across the floor. T-bone and Razor had finished surveying the room and had their attention on making a new hole to crawl through. Just as the flames on their gloves were about to connect, Razor looked back and saw the moving figures. The ginger kat's jaw dropped, surprised that they weren't alone anymore.

" T-bone, your double's moving!" Razor informed.

" I told you! He looks nothing…!" T-bone began when he looked back, seeing the spectacle. " HOLY KATS!" One of the cavekats leapt at T-bone, slamming him against the wall they had began to cut through. The impact broke the small portion of uncut steel and knocked the hole open, making T-bone and the assailant fly inside.

" T-bone!" Razor shouted when he saw this. The other two cavekats charged at Razor, intent to do as their master had commanded. Razor saw the movement just in time and jumped into the air as one of the cavekat's dived for a tackle, sending him to the ground. Razor rolled in the air and landed behind the other attacker. The ginger tom pointed his Glovatrix at the primitive kat and fired a bola missile. The bola wrapped around the cavekat and bound him tight, eliminating him as a threat. The other cavekat stood up from the ground and let out a fierce roar as he charged at Razor again. As soon as the massive tom came close, Razor sidestepped him to the right, dodging the charge and leapt into the air. Razor spun and delivered a kick to the back of the cavekat's head, sending him toppling to the floor unconscious. Meanwhile, T-bone and his attacker were wrestling on the ground, both trying to subdue the other.

" YOU PICKED THE WRONG DAY TO MESS WITH ME!" T-bone roared as he positioned his arms around the cavekat. T-bone brought his opponent up into a suplex , the cavekat's legs kicking in the air as he grunted and hollered in some unknown language. T-bone smiled as he brought the kat's back down to the floor, slamming him hard enough to knock the wind out of him. The cavekat went unconscious a few moments after the attack connected.

" Heh, who's stronger now?" T-bone mocked.

" Uh T-bone, it's a dummy." Razor pointed out as he came through the makeshift entrance. T-bone raised an eyebrow at his partner, but then shifted his gaze over to the muscle-bound tom he just faced. T-bone's eyes went wide under his mask when he saw that the kat he had just face was in fact a dummy replica.

" Crud! With all the stuff here, the Pastmaster could have made all sorts of spies." The blond tabby commented.

" Great, just what we need." Razor groaned. " We need to find the Pastmaster and…!" The ginger kat stopped when he realized something.

" What?" T-bone questioned.

" Blaze! He could be in serious trouble!" Razor exclaimed.

" Crud!" T-bone responded. The masked hero turned on the transmitter in his glove and began calling Blaze in it, hoping to god that the young kat would reply. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

" Wow! This place is actually kinda creepy when you're alone." Blaze commented as he entered a new room through the hole he just made. The room was very large, and for good reason. The area was a large dinosaur exhibit. There were cases displaying fossils scattered all around the area. Pictures of the scaled creatures lined hung on the walls, showing skeletal structures, possible organ systems, habitats, and the prey they hunted. Hanging from the ceiling were pterodactyl models and in the center of the room, standing tall and proud, was the complete structure of a Megasaurus Rex. Blaze gazed at the gargantuan statue of bones, fixated on how tall and old the beast was. The bones were a dark caramel with light brown specks in them.

Amazing! Blaze thought. But.. Something doesn't feel right about it.

" Blaze! Blaze! Come in kid!" T-bone's voice shouted from the Glovatrix. The red kat's attention was captured by the voice and he turned away from the skeleton.

" What is it T-bone? Did you guys find the hostages and beat the Pastmaster already?" Blaze asked.

" No, but your in serious danger bud." T-bone answered.

" Danger?" Blaze questioned.

" Yeah. T-bone and I were just attacked by cavekats." Razor's voice explained. " We think the Pastmaster may have animated some of the exhibits so they could act as spies and guards."

" He can do that!" Blaze exclaimed. " But I haven't seen any….!" The red kat stopped when his ears picked up a faint popping sound. It wasn't very loud, but just enough to register the fact that he wasn't alone. Blaze turned around slowly, only to realize he was face to face with the skull of the Megasaurus Rex. The SWAT Kat was frozen with fear as the pile of bones began to sniff him, oblivious to the fact that it has been dead for years and had no nostrils. Blaze was shocked from this display, not even able to let out a whimper.

" Kid? You there?" T-bone asked over the radio. The Megasaurus Rex pulled its head back in response to the tabby's voice. It then lowered it so he was face to face with Blaze and let out a piercing roar. Blaze felt the sound shoot through him before he was caught in the windblast. The roar knocked him off his feet and carried him in the air before sending him to the ground on his tail. Razor and T-bone jumped four feet into the air in reaction to the roar.

" What the hell?" T-bone shouted after he landed. Blaze had his eyes focused on the monster when he raised his glove.

" T-bone. I'll have to call you back." He said. Blaze stood up and ran as fast as his feet could take him. The Megasaurus Rex chased after him, making the ground shake with every massive step he took. Blaze turned his head as he ran and saw the skeleton was stretching out to snap at him. The red kat instinctively dived and rolled, avoiding the decayed jaws of the skeleton. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

" Dammit! I'm gonna get that kid and drag his tail back here!" T-bone roared with anger. The blond tabby began to stomp towards to hole in the wall when Razor grabbed his wrist, stopping T-bone.

" T-bone, we have to focus on the mission." Razor stated.

" And what? Let him get gored?" T-bone returned.

" He's not gonna get hurt." Razor replied. T-bone stared at Razor with disbelief.

" What makes you think that?" T-bone barked. " So we go on and find the Pastmaster. It's not worth having to make his coffin!"

" I know he wont be hurt Hotshot." Razor replied calmly. " You and I both know how resourceful he can be when he sets his mind on it. He'll handle it, so you don't need to keep worrying about him."

" How did you…?" T-bone began.

" You wouldn't let him help against that dragon. That was the first clue." The ginger kat interrupted, a slight smile playing on his lips. " What are you so worried about?" T-bone turned his head away from his partner. He wanted to say, but he knew that they didn't have the time.

" Forget about it." The blond tabby returned, pulling his arm out of the slim tom's grasp. " We don't have time for this. We need to find the little goblin and get out of here."

" Right." Razor agreed. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Blaze dived to the side, avoiding a bone-crushing stomp. The red kat was breathing heavily, his energy going deep into the red.

I can't keep running. He thought as the dinosaur halted. I need to find a weakness and beat… before Blaze could finish the thought, the skeleton whipped around fast, smashing Blaze with its tail. Blaze cried in pain and reached out with his paws. His hand caught the end of the skeleton's tail, but with a quick snap sound, he continued through the air into a wall. He quickly slid to the ground. It felt like the attack had cracked a rib.

God! It hurts! Blaze thought with his teeth grit. But what was that? When I had his tail. Blaze looked down and saw the answer. Right beside him was the tailbone he had grabbed. The red kat stared at it with disbelief, until a sly smile appeared on his mug. The Megasaurus Rex roared loudly, catching Blaze's attention. The red kat stood up, his determination pushed away the pain he felt in his body. The Megasaurus Rex charged at him, unknowing of the plan the kid had made. As it got close, the skeleton had lowered its head to bite when Blaze jumped to the right. As he was in the air, Blaze aimed at the monster's exposed neck. He fired a missile, and the projectile stuck the target. The bones in the neck exploded into small splinters, disconnecting the head with the body. With a symphony of cracking and snapping, the living skeleton fell apart, decorating the floor with their decayed limbs. Blaze stood up and shook his head.

" He was only a skeleton after all." Blaze sighed. " Man I'm stupid. Just glad T-bone didn't see that or he'd have me do laps for a week." The red kat started to walk towards the nearest sealed entrance, wincing in pain from the cracked rib. He immediately began to cut into the wall, not knowing or caring what was on the other side. When he finished, the SWAT Kat gasped with surprise. On the other side of the opening, tied and bound, were Mayor Manx and Callie Briggs.
