Authors note: hello again I'm borrowing my favorite poem from a movie called Hocus Pocus, poems or songs will be like so thank you.
Catastrophe kicked the door open, and the others stared at her as she stumbled out, she barely managed to catch herself "how-how long was I in there?" Keswick and the Chief were speechless "I said, how long?" finally the Chief spoke "I'd say a little over a day." Catastrophe glared at them "what happened, what went wrong!" Keswick typed on his computer "well we believe that Logan s-sabotaged the machine, before he took Kitty's r-remains" Cat grabbed the scientist by his throat "you mean the whole time I was in there you idiots couldn't keep an eye on a corpse!"
The Chief jumped on her head "Catastrophe calm down, Logan is dead" she stopped and tried looking at the Chief but couldn't see him "so where is her body?" Keswick shrugged "some kind of b-black swat team took the body, we've b-been looking into it but so far we h-have nothing." Cat sat down and crossed her legs "well at least I have some good news" the Chief jumped off her head and on to the table nearby "what is it?" she smiled "I remember everything, my childhood, what happened in high school, all of it" the Chief looked confused.
"So you know who the killer is?" Catastrophe stood up and laughed "oh I know exactly who I need to go after" Keswick nodded "that professor Marley right?" she growled at the mention of that hyena "I'll kill him, first he ruined my life, now he wants Kitty's body for some reason, I swear I will shoot him right between the eyes." The Chief laughed "now that we know who the psycho is we can track him down" Cat shook her head "not just yet, if we go after him with what we have now, we'll just get shot" the Chief gave her a funny look "we? Your job is done, and your free to go, so let us handle this."
Catastrophe was shocked "what, you can't expect me to stand by after all this, I want to catch my twin's killer, and if I have to do it alone I will, so your ether with me, or stay out of my way" that's when Dudley walked in and Cat noticed he wasn't looking to good. Cat walked straight up to him and they glared at each other, then Catastrophe spoke up "listen here dog, I know we have our differences but we need to work together to save Kitty, and I-" Dudley interrupted her "I know, I need your help."
She looked at him confused "wait, you want my help?" he nodded "I want her killer to suffer, but I can't do it alone" he put his hand and she smiled, she then took his hand and they shook on it "okay dog, looks like your my new Rabies." She laughed and he just rolled his eyes, and the Chief smiled "alright, this is perfect, a duo make from the best T.U.F.F has to offer, working with a master criminal, two completely different sides working together" Dudley smiled "so is your name really Madame Catastrophe?"
She smirked "to you it is" as they left Keswick's lab a black and green shadow jumped into Dudley's shadow, Dudley turned his head to look at Catastrophe "so where do we start looking?" Cat shrugged "my guess is that he will make to first move." Just then the Chief jumped out of the lab "agents, someone is attacking the Petropolis high school, get out there and put a stop to it!" Dudley nodded and grabbed Catastrophe as he ran off "this could be his first move" they jumped into the T.U.F.F mobile and drove off and Cat was impressed with the inside of it.
"I've always wanted to drive this car, by the way, did the flea say agents?" Dudley nodded "he gets excited easily, your not T.U.F.F material" she felt a bit offended by that "I can be the good guy if I wanted to" he just laughed at that. As soon as they got there Catastrophe instantly recognized the building "this...this was my high school" Dudley looked around, it was strangely peaceful for being attacked "I think we were played" Cat turned back and saw a red light beam climbing up Dudley's back.
"Dudley move!" she pushed him away and a bullet went in between them, Dudley landed on his feet and pulled out his gun "what was that?" he heard some footsteps and quickly turned with his gun ready to fire, only to see Kitty standing there. "Kitty?" he stood up in shock, she looked pretty good for being dead, other then being pale, she had cuts and stitches all over her body and she was just standing there, her eyes had barely any life in them and she smiled at him "your alive?"
Catastrophe suddenly tackled him to the floor "get down you idiot!" and another bullet shot by them, and she slapped him "get in the game!" he quickly looked for Kitty but she wasn't there "bu-but I saw her" Catastrophe grabbed his gun and shot at the sniper. Dudley was in his own little world trying to find Kitty, and Cat finally shot in the right spot and the sniper fell from a tree "ha got ya" she went over and was about to finish him when the strange looking crown around his head lit up.
The sniper grabbed his head and screamed in pain, and an electrical charge shot through his head and he went limp, Catastrophe checked the body confused "what in the world?" she leaned down and removed the crown and then she got a whiff of rotting flesh. She quickly backed up holding her nose "oh god, he smells like death" she held her breath and went back to check his body, she knelt down on one knee and removed the full head mask, the body was nothing but bones and rot, and Catastrophe jumped back and threw up.
She took a moment to breath and wiped her mouth "how is that possible, we were getting shot at by a corpse" she noticed Dudley was looking around into space, she went over to him and touched his shoulder "Dudley? Are you alright?" he turned to her and shook his head. "I saw her, I saw Kitty here" she looked at him confused "you must be seeing things" he nodded "y-yeah, let's head back" she watched him walk away and noticed he was moving a lot slower "first I'm hearing things, now he's seeing things, this is getting weird."
They jumped back in the car and the Chief appeared on the car's holographic screen "agents Puppy and Catastrophe, we have a new problem, someone is attacking the Petropolis mall!" they nodded "we're on it Chief" Cat saw that Dudley was hanging his head. She knew that he couldn't fight like this "Dudley, you can sit this one out if you want" he shook his head "no I can do this, I just need to collect my thoughts that's all" she sighed "look if you become a liability, I will drop you got it."
Dudley drove them to the mall, and again it was strangely peaceful, they looked around and Catastrophe knew this place as well "Dudley I think there is a pattern here" then they heard a strange sound behind them. Dudley took out his gun and whipped around, and his eyes widened "no" Cat turned and they saw Kitty standing there with the cuts and stitches around her body "Dudley?" he dropped his gun and walked closer to her "Kitty? You really are alive?"
Catastrophe couldn't believe her eyes "no that's not possible" Kitty smiled weakly "Dudley I wanted to tell you before that I l-" her eyes faded as she fell to the floor, Dudley quickly ran to her side "KITTY!" he picked her body up and tears start to fall. Cat walked up to him "Dudley that's not her, it can't be" he shook his head "no, your wrong, this is her, I can tell" Cat was about to say something but then two black swat guys came out of nowhere, and pointed their guns at them "let the girl go, before we force you to."
Cat drew her claws "just try it" Dudley held on to Kitty for dear life, and then more showed up "you should listen to us" Cat noticed that they were outmatched at this time, so she grabbed Dudley and pulled him away from Kitty. "Let her go, we can't win like this" Dudley shook his head in a panic "no, not again, I can't lose her again!" Catastrophe held him back as the team grabbed her and left, and Dudley crumbled to his knees and punched the floor, while in tears "KITTY!"
She watched him fall apart and she just looked away, she didn't have any words to say, so she just stood there, it was hours before he calmed down enough for her to speak "Dudley we should go" he slowly nodded "y-yeah." She helped him up, and to the car, where she took the wheel and drove back to T.U.F.F HQ, she noticed that he looked like someone knifed him in the heart multiple times, when they got back she helped him out of the car, and they went to the upper floors.
She helped over to a seat and sat down next to him "are you okay?" he shook his head, and she thought about a way to cheer him up "do you want to hear her voice again?" he nodded, so she grabbed him and smiled "then close your eyes, relax and remember." She held him and cleared her throat, and as he listened to her voice it became Kitty's as she began to sing
"Come Little Children, I'll Take Thee Away, Into A Land, Of Enchantment, Come Little Children, The Time's Come To Play, Here In My Garden, Of Magic, Follow Sweet Children, I'll Show Thee The Way, Through All The Pain And, The Sorrows, Weep Not Poor Children, For Life Is This Way, Murdering Beauty And, Passions, Hush Now Dear Children, It Must Be This Way, To Weary Of Life And, Deceptions, Rest Now My Children, For Soon We'll Away, into The Calm And, The Quiet, Come Little Children, I'll Take Thee Away, Into A Land, Of Enchantment."
He found it strangely calming and her voice was just beautiful, he closed his eyes and he could see Kitty and himself holding hands in a field, a perfect dream land to forget, a lifetime with her was all he wanted, Catastrophe watched him fall asleep so she laid him down and left him alone. She ran into Keswick and the Chief and they had big grins on their faces, she glared at them "if you two tell anyone about this, I will hurt you" they only nodded as she walked away.
