In the Underground Parking Lot…

He searched inside his huge payload in his trucks cargo bay. "Ah there it is," said Professor Whitclaw as he snatched out from his clutter a helmet like invention with many circuitry and wires around it.

"Dark Kats invention was way much advance than this, but that doesn't mean that it still functions the same his," said Professor Whitclaw as he fished out 2 more and a remote pad that controls these helmets.

"Glad I'd may spares, and I do not know why I made multiple copies on my inventions, probably I'm just a nutcase," as he laughed to himself.

He then shaked his head, "Now's not the time to think such things, its time to get serious," as he jumped out of his vehicle with his inventions and walked towards the tied up group.

"Sorry I have to do this, but it has to be done," said Whitclaw as he forcibly put his own mind control machine on each of their heads over top Dark Kats version.

"Hmm, lets see, if I can change the frequency and alter it…" as he pressed a few buttons and dials with the helmets whirling and buzzing.

"Then I will be able to control the functions and connections to Dark Kats invention," but he shacked his head, "That would mean that Dark Kats invention will forcibly join my invention together and cause the Mayors and Tessa pain since they are submitting their minds to another one, but it is a risk I have to take," as he pressed his final button.

With that Whitclaw's invention glowing and white electric sparks emerged from Dark Kats headband and connected to his helmet. With that going on Mayor Manx, Miss. Briggs, and Tessa screamed out of their lungs.

This lasted a few short seconds and all of them drooped with their heads down. "Now to take it offline," said Whitclaw as he pressed a few buttons from his pad, and with that the humming stopped and the lights faded. They were offline.

"Excellent," said Whitclaw as he walked over to them. "I hope they are alright," as he take out both the helmet and headbands out from their heads gently.

Professor tries to wake them up and they stirred up. The first one to stirred up was Miss. Briggs. "What happened," said Callie as she moaned from the pain coming and growing in her head. The others also stirred when they were awaken by Professor Whitclaw.

"What am I doing here, and what with this pain in my head," said Manx as he rocked his head with his hands.

"Where am I" said Tessa as she looked around her surroundings, "Were in the underground parking lot?" she said with a confusing look.

"You were under mind control by Dark Kats invention, if I were remove it from your heads then you would have serious brain damage, but I was able turn it offline with my other invention that is similar to mines," said Whitclaw as he gently help them get up.

"We know that but what happened after," said Callie.

As he supported the Mayor to stand-up but without any success he said, "Dark Kat was about to control me with that mind invention of his, but then the SWAT Kats came."

"The SWAT Kats, they're here?" said Tessa.

"Yep, they were able to save me from Dark Kat, but this involved you guys in the situation," he said sadly.

"How so," said Mayor Manx as he cradled his head, "Ohh, and my head felt it was been hit again."

"I'm afraid that's because T-Bone had to knock the day lights out of you," said Professor Whitclaw as he saw surprised shocks are plastered on their faces.

Professor Whitclaw then continued, "Dark Kat controlled all of you and he ordered all three of you to attack me and the SWAT Kats, we tried to stop you and avoid your attacks but this lead us to hitting you back and tying you up so we don't do anymore harm to you guys."

"So I was attacking you," said Tessa as she looked up to see Whitclaw. Then Callie looked up and said also, "And I also attacked the SWAT Kats as well."

Whitclaw then put both hands on both they're shoulders and, "Don't blame youself for this, it was Dark Kats fault that lead you to this mess, and it is all over now."

Callie signed and said, "Your right," and then she got mad and said, "We should blame Dark Kat for the trouble he gave you guys."

"Yeah, we should get him for what he did to us," said Tessa angrily.

Then Manx interrupted and said, "Don't go after Dark Kat yourselves, you will be a lot more danger, and the Enforcers and SWAT Kats won't like that."

"He's right," said Whitclaw.

"Okay then, but getting out is our first priority, since a battle is still raging," said Mayor Manx.

Whitclaw shaked his head and said, "No, I'm going after Dark Kat since he stolen my engine and is escaping with it, and I am not going to let that happen."

"But you said before we would be in a lot more danger if we go after him ourselves," said Tessa.

"But only if we go after him together," said Whitclaw as he went back to his vehicle and digged into his trunk again.

"True I got experience from Professor Hackle on becoming an inventor in advance engineering and technology, but I also got experience from him on inventing and testing weapons, and I also became a weapons designer and tester for the research facility as well."

With that Whitclaw taken a few weapons and gadgets out from his cargo trunk and place them on the floor between himself the Mayors and Tessa. He then picked up 4 pieces of what looks like smooth silver fabric that flows through Whitclaws hands like water, but the most intriguing part that the fabric is shaped like everyday clothes.

"This is a new type of bullet proof vests I been making for the Enforcers to wear since their vests are very bulky and heavy which gives a disadvantage of having to reduce the freedom of movement and speed," said Professor Whitclaw as he by everybody shock wore the silver t-shirt over his lab coat, but once he wore over it disappeared instantly.

"Don't worry, that was just the active camouflage the vest has on it so no kat would notice that it was there in the first place," And with that everybody wore the special vests.

When they wore it they felt like water flow through them and they weigh like light as a feather.

Whitclaw then grabs his prototype plasma flamer, but then when he was about to put the rest of the armaments away since it would be dangerous for any of them to hold since they didn't have experience holding a gun, he saw Deputy Mayor Briggs and Tessa in surprise picking themselves an armament from the pile and holding it with ease on their slender hands.

Ignoring it he said, "Okay here's the plan we'll take my truck and drive up to the Dark Kats Ship and attack it, I know it sounds a bit suicidal but time is the essence since I fear the Enforcers and SWAT Kats would not make it in time to catch him after the many times he escaped."

Then Whitclaw saw Miss. Briggs and Tessa's angry faces looking at him.

"What?" he said as if he said something bad.

But Manx interrupted and said, "But what about your vehicle it would not last a few seconds under Dark Kats guns," said in a worried voice.

Whitclaw just smiled and said, "My vehicle has a built mini shield generator that can protect us from Dark Kats lasers, and I also have few surprises on it as well. You can stay inside the vehicle for your safety Mayor Manx. Okay less talk and more action, so hop in the vehicle and I will do the driving."

Both Callie and Tessa signed and both thought, "It would be best to follow his plan and punch him later," as both of them hop into the huge vehicle.

Callie took the front passenger seat while Mayor Manx and Tessa took the backs.

"Okay everybody buckle up, this is will be a rough ride," as he started the ignition and floored the gas, and drove towards the exit.

"By the way Tessa how did you know how to hold a gun?" said Whitclaw as he rolled over the corpse's of dead creeplings and ninjas.

"I was the part of the military once but decided to leave and have an ordinary life of my own," said Tessa.

"And what about you Mayor Briggs," said Whitclaw as he almost reached the exit.

Callie Briggs just smilled and said, "Like I told you before, I learn a thing or two from escaping from any evil criminal that captured me."

"And using an armament would be a number two," said Whitclaw with a grin.

"Pretty much," said Callie as she looked at the main exit. She then saw in surprised that some of Dark Kats remaining forces were blocking the Main Exit.

"Okay everybody, hold onto your seatbelts, this will be a rough and bumpy ride," said Whitclaw as he increased the speed of his vehicle.

Within a few seconds the ninjas and creeplings realized in shocked horror that it was not stopping. The small group of creeplings charged at it, but due to vehicle's huge size and weight at high velocity speeds they were smacked instantly on the huge windshield.

"I don't like bugs on my wind shield," said Whitclaw angrily as he turned on his huge windshield wipers that knocked off all of the creeplings from the windshield.

The Ninjas were horrified that they shot their pistols at the hummer truck, but to their surprise a shield protecting the huge vehicle deflected the shots.

"Good thing I activated the shields on time," said Whitclaw as he released his finger from a button he pressed to activate the shields that was under the radio compartment.

Ninjas tried to run away but within a few seconds they were either crushed under the huge tires or been hit and sent flying into the air.

"Now that is what I called road kill," said Callie as she looked at the long line of bodies that were lying fully faced down on the ground that she sees on rear view mirror.

Whitclaw then shifted gears and floored the gas pedal and were now going at high speeds once more.

"Let's get even Dark Kat," he growled to himself as beeline towards Dark Kats Ship.
