Meanwhile in the Dog Stars HQ...
"Food's done!" Hot Dog called out before hearing a stampede of puppies and kittens coming. "Uh-oh..."
The puppies and kittens laughed as they nearly trampled over him to get some food.
"Ugh... I hope ya like it..." Hot Dog groaned. "Luckily I still had some leftover macaroni and cheese."
The puppies and kittens began to enjoy the food that Hot Dog had served.
"Kids." Hot Dog sighed.
Thunder Mutt chuckled a bit.
"I think I need to rest," Brainy Barker said to the others as she held her head in her paws. "I think I'm working too hard."
"I could go for some rest myself." Hot Dog said.
"I should have something in mind hopefully by tomorrow, everybody." Brainy Barker told them.
"Try to take it easy and get some rest," Bull Dog advised. "You've had a long day."
"I really feel like I have," Brainy Barker nodded. "Thank you for understanding."
"We all could use some rest." Mammoth Mutt said.
"Yep." Paw Pooch said.
"Hmm..." Superdog paused as he glanced out the window. "It IS pretty late... I suppose we could all get some dinner and get an early rest for the night."
"Right." The rest of the Dog Stars nodded in agreement.
They soon came to join the puppies and kittens to have some dinner together and they would need to get as much rest as they could get. Once they all had dinner, they took Max and Squeaky back home while the other puppies and kittens stayed with The Dog Stars.
"Tripod, I'm sorry we had our fight and I got you in trouble with Snooky," Superdog sighed to himself as he stared out the window. "I just wish you could be here right now to know how really sorry I am."
Meanwhile in Mechanikat's ship Tripod looked miserable as Snooky was close by, but he wasn't looking at him.
"I guess I can't trust anyone anymore," Tripod sulked. "This is not at all what I imagined when I was rescued from that fire... Now I wish I wasn't even saved in the first place."
"Aw, Tripod, don't say things like that..." Snooky said softly.
"So Dad was right about you." Tripod frowned.
"Yes, I do work for Mechanikat, but Tripod, you have to know when we were playing together and spending time together, I really did have fun together with you." Snooky told him softly.
"Did you now?" Tripod asked, firm, though still soft because now he just felt depressed.
"I did, really," Snooky nodded. "I've never had fun like that in my whole life and I promise that that's actually true this time and I'm not lying now."
"Then what about your family?" Tripod asked. "Was your life before we met a lie too?"
"Yes, but please listen to what I have to tell you." Snooky said.
"Alright fine." Tripod said softly.
Snooky soon took a deep breath and told Tripod everything he could, even if it was a bit hard to do, it was a bit better than lying to his new friend's face, especially since they had really become friends despite the kitten being hired to befriend the Dalmatian.
"So your parents paid more attention to your brother and gave him praises while treating you like you were nothing?" Tripod asked. "And would at times told you to be more like your brother?"
"Yeah, it kept getting on my nerves so much that I couldn't take it anymore and stole his toy." Snooky said.
"Did you get in trouble for it?" Tripod asked.
"Not right away," Snooky replied. "I hid it away so I could keep playing with it by myself without anyone knowing. You can probably guess what happened after that."
"You got caught?" Tripod guessed.
"They found me playing with it in the middle of the night," Snooky nodded. "I got in so much trouble and they made it worse by saying my brother would never steal and I should be very ashamed of myself for being so selfish and bratty."
"Well, that's just unfair it's your parents own fault for stealing from him not your own," Tripod said. "They wanted you to be just like your brother and treated you like nothing."
"Exactly!" Snooky replied. "But you know all my life I've never had a best friend before."
"I never have either," Tripod said softly. "I'm starting to think the friends I once had like Mooch in the past weren't my real friends."
"Was he really that bad?" Snooky asked.
"After spending time with the Superdog Fan Club members, I think I'm starting to see that Mooch wasn't exactly my friend..." Tripod said. "Like making me be a distraction if we saw a butcher or a baker and he could swoop in and get the food for us both to share, though he said he deserved more cuz it was his idea."
Snooky winced a bit from that.
"Not to mention half the time, he'd run away and I'd get in the most trouble..." Tripod then added.
"Rough." Snooky winced.
"But there was one that truly did love me before she died," Tripod said softly. "My mom."
"Your mother?" Snooky asked.
Tripod nodded softly as he looked out to the distance. "Only she really understood me," he then said. "I'd give anything to see her again... The voice of an angel... Especially in the lullaby she made up for me... I miss her every time a new day passes."
"D-Do you ever sing it whenever you miss her or whenever you have trouble sleeping?" Snooky asked softly.
"Y-Yeah." Tripod nodded.
"Why don't you sing it for me?" Snooky asked.
"That's okay, I know I don't have the best singing voice out there." Tripod replied.
"Oh, come along now... Just this once?" Snooky asked.
"...Well, all right," Tripod said softly as he took a deep breath and tried to imagine what it would be like if his mother was there singing it to him as he sang the song to help make them both feel better. "Hush-a-bye, little one, Close your eyes, little one, Dream time is near, you needn't fear, And when you wake, I will be here~," he then sang softly as best as he could. "Rest your head, little one, Dream sweet dreams, little one, The stars say 'Good night', I say 'Sleep tight', And when you wake, I will be here~"
Snooky smiled as that song seemed so peaceful. Tripod smiled back softly as he just pretended his mother was still singing to him even if she wasn't there anymore.
"Thank you." Snooky said softly from the song.
"You're welcome." Tripod nodded.
Tripod and Snooky both began to feel tired as they both yawned. The two then decided to get as much sleep as they could get, as did everyone else close around town.
"Night, Snooky." Tripod whispered.
"Good night, Tripod." Snooky nodded as they both drifted off to sleep.
Everyone began to have pleasant dreams. Well, almost everyone as Snooky began to have a very special and important dream.
It was like another day for the Superdog Fan Club as everybody was slowly coming along. Max did what he could to tidy up before the other members would show up. Luckily, this dream started out well for the most part.
"Everything is perfect." Max smiled.
Snooky soon came into the clubhouse.
"Oh... Hey, Snooky," Max greeted the light blue kitten. "You're a bit earlier than everyone else."
"I guess I couldn't wait." Snooky said.
"We just have to wait for everyone else to arrive and we can get the meeting started." Max smiled.
"Nothing will ruin it." Snooky reassured in excitement.
Each member of the club soon began to make their way inside one-by-one.
"I think everyone's here." Snooky smiled.
"Very well then," Max nodded. "Go take your seat, I'll be right with you guys in a sec."
Snooky nodded back and soon went to go back to the others.
"Remember the choices you made with me... You're loyal to me... Remember..." Mechanikat's voice said to Snooky, haunting his dream a bit.
"Mechanikat?" Snooky blinked.
"Did you say something?" Rose asked.
"I can't wait for the meeting to start." Snooky covered up.
Rose shrugged as she bonded with the others to pass the time.
"This can't be happening." Snooky groaned, trying not to panic, but he couldn't help it.
"Snooky, you better get the information that you collected to me and announce the secret Tripod told you." Mechanikat's voixe said.
"R-R-Right..." Snooky gulped. "But... I don't think I wanna do this anymore."
"What?!" Mechanikat's voice snapped. "We had a deal from when we first met... You must serve me... You sealed your fate the moment you and I first met... You're not here to make friends, especially with annoying fans of Supercat and Superdog... Your true potential is on the dark side."
"Snooky, is everything okay?" Esmeralda asked.
"Your friends are waiting..." Mechanikat's voice mocked.
"I'll be okay..." Snooky shivered. "I'm just... Thinking about a lot of stuff today."
"Oh, okay." Jack smiled.
"We were just concerned." Zack said.
"You know I'm right, Snooky, you can't hide forever." Mechanikat's voice taunted before laughing.
Snooky shook nervously as the dark side tried to corrupt him like how it had before he had met Tripod and the others who had become his friends.
"Now come to me and tell me Tripod's secret." Mechanikat's voice smirked.
"Snooky?" Tripod asked out of concern.
"I've always wanted to be super... Like Superdog and Supercat... And the evil way was the path I chose after I ran away from home before I met Mechanikat..." Snooky said to himself. "I don't know what to do."
"FOLLOW THROUGH OR SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES!" Mechanikat snarled.
Snooky winces as the dark side started take a over a bit. He then began to make his way out of the clubhouse.
"Snooky, what are you doing?" Max asked.
"I'm going to tell Superdog's secret to the most evil one!" Snooky said before taking off running.
"What?!" The pups gasped and yelped.
"Where is he going?" Esmeralda asked.
"Where do you think?" Max replied. "Come on! After him!"
"Wait! I'm coming too!" Jack called out as he ran with the other pups as they ran across town to chase after Snooky.
"Superdog Fan Club, get out of my way~" Snooky began to sing as he glared back towards the group behind him. "Everybody needs to know the truth, And they'll hear it from me~"
"Stop! Snooky Wookums, this is not the way, you know you're better than this hostility~" The Superdog Fan Club sang back as they chased after him.
Snooky soon made some stuff fall to try and keep them from continuing to follow him, causing them to to stumble around. "You don't even know me at all, Don't understand the meaning of my fall, What my family would think if I ever fail at anything~" The light blue kitten sang as he avoided them. "My skeleton's made of evil bones, that means I'll never break, No matter what be the cost of the path I take, Whatever I have to do to win in the end~"
"Stop! This is not the answer~," The Superdog Fan Club sang, coming to stop him at all ends as he kept running through the streets to get to Mechanikat. "Wait! And it's plainly seen, Listen! You can redeem yourself, But by helping others, not by being mean~"
Snooky began to back up away from them before running somewhere else.
"We know you want friends who admire you, You want to be the star with all the power too, But there's a better way, there's a better wa-a-ay~," The Superdog Fan Club sang and smiled hopefully as they followed him. "There's so much more still left to, Learn about yourself, See the light that shines in you, We know you can be somebody else, You can stop right now, And try another start~"
Snooky was soon shown two paths to the dark side of evil and to the good side of kindness and friendship.
"You'll finally free yourself from the dark~," The Superdog Fan Club sang, smiling hopefully. "And see the light, And see the light of your heart~"
Snooky was about to run to the left, but he had luckily stopped himself as his dark side tried to get him to move to the path of evil, but instead he went to the path of that led to the good side of kindness and friendship. Luckily for him, over there was the clubhouse.
"I can have friends... I can be happy... I can play like a kid..." Snooky smiled hopefully. "It'll be a great life." He was soon group hugged together with the Superdog Fan Club members with a smile.
And where outside, Snooky smiled as he was enjoying his dream.
"Now for a quick rest and then the plan will be enacted," Mechanikat smirked. "Not even the humans will be spared in my global conquest... Lex Luthor would live in envy of me if he could see me." The evil robot cat soon began to get some sleep for tomorrow would be perfect for his plan.
All over town, everyone was fast asleep, even to those who knew about the plan and were worried. No one was more worried though than maybe Krypto, especially since he and Tripod got into a bad fight right before the young Dalmatian was taken and this looked very grim and bad for him, though no one in the Whitney family properly understood, except for Kevin, but they all knew that he was upset about Tripod being gone and they were too, especially Melanie. And soon, when the next day came Mechanikat's own alarm clock went off, waking him up.
"Well, buddy, this is it... The big day..." Mechanikat then smirked at himself.
The sun wasn't even up yet, but it would be soon as Mechanikat began to tend to his plans while everyone all over town was still asleep, unaware of what was going to happen next. Delilah, Snooky, and Tripod were seen sleeping until Mechanikat woke them up so then they could be awake when his plan would unfold.
"Good morning..." Mechanikat greeted.
"Ugh... What do you want now?" Tripod groaned.
"Oh, man, this is not." Snooky gulped to himself, feeling nervous.
"Oh, yes, this is it, Snooky," Mechanikat smirked. "The time to attack the Dog Stars is now."
"About time." Delilah said.
"You'll never win." Tripod glared.
"You will be silent," Mechanikat glared back. "You may be strong for a young Dalmatian, but you're not strong enough to take me down."
"This will definitely be delicious on the way to victory~" Delilah grinned.
"So, he's just being used as leverage against Superdog?" Snooky asked.
"No, Snooky; I'm planning on having him part of the plan, that's why one of the machines is for attacking and making cat copies of the Dog Stars while the other gives that pup Kryptonian powers only without the weakness to Kryptonite and can allow him to change his age whenever he wants," Mechanikat whispered to Snooky. "Now just stay still and watch the plan continue."
Snooky gulped before doing as he said as he sat still.
Everyone was still asleep all throughout town.
Krypto soon woke up in the Whitney house and looked around before he went out into the backyard. "I know it's early, but I should check on the others..." he said to himself before he soon chased his tail, turning back into Superdog and he soon flew off, trying not to wake anybody up yet.
"We should be getting some readings any minute now and then I can make my own Cat Star Patrol." Mechanikat chuckled darkly.
"Oh, indeed." Delilah smirked.
"This plan of mine is perfect." Mechanikat smirked back.
Brainy Barker was shown to be sleeping in her room of the Dog Star Headquarters, though she had a hard time staying asleep as she gasped. "No! This is the horrible thing! I've got to tell the others!" she then said, rushing out of bed and going to warn the others while she still had the time.
Each Dog Star member was seen still asleep each one having a Superdog Fan Club member sleeping by their side. Jack was seen sleeping with Tusky Husky. Both smiled as they seemed to get along during their time together last night and so far this morning too.
"Wake up, everyone!" Brainy Barker announced throughout the building. "Wake up! This is not a drill! We are all in serious danger!"
"10 more minutes..." Jack groaned sleepily.
"It's too early for this, eh?" Tusky Husky added.
"I'm sorry, but you need to wake up now!" Brainy Barker told them as she used her special power to lift Tusky Husky and Jack out of bed as she took them with her to wake up the others.
"So I guess this really can't wait." Jack yawned.
"I'm sorry it's so early, but I think I've tracked down Mechanikat's energy readings and maybe even his plan." Brainy Barker told them.
"This sounds serious, eh?" Tusky Husky remarked.
"Indeed it is," Brainy Barker nodded. "Come along, come to the meeting room. Come on, get up, all of you. You too, little ones. This could be very vital for all of you to know."
"Alright. Alright." The puppies yawned.
"We're coming." The rest of the Dog Stars added.
Brainy Barker paced around as she looked very scared and worried.
"Brainy Barker?" Superdog called.
"In here, Superdog," Brainy Barker told him, letting him come inside. "The others are just waking up now."
"Well, it is rather early." Thunder Mutt said as he flew in with Max and Squeaky.
"I apologize, but I had to get you up and over here as soon as possible since I had the most horrible vision." Brainy Barker replied.
"What did you see?" Mammoth Mutt asked.
"Is it about Mechanikat's plan?" Hot Dog added.
"Yes," Brainy Barker nodded. "It seems that he's intending on using some cats to round up to make some sort of army... If I had to guess fully based on the visions I've had, it would be like a Cat Star Patrol."
"So he's copying us?" Mammoth Mutt glared. "That copycat!"
"Not just childish copying," Brainy Barker reassured. "He'll take us down with it and replace us and soon ascend to global conquest and maybe even getting the humans hurt worse than foes like Lex Luthor and the Legion of Doom could even dream of accomplishing."
"So then what's Tripod got to do with this plan of his?" Thunder Mutt asked.
"Apparently he is going to use a machine to show Tripod a future where he would have powers like Superdog only without the weakness to Kryptonite," Brainy Barker said. "Not only that, also to be able to change his age if he joins Mechanikat's side."
"That's just madness!" Thunder Mutt cried out.
"Believe me, I know," Brainy Barker nodded. "It's a tempting offer, especially for a kid like Tripod, though I just hope and pray that he doesn't resort to such extremes."
"What do we do to stop this then?" Bull Dog asked.
"The thing is, I don't know what to do, other than teamwork of course." Brainy Barker said softly.
"So that means we have to find a way to sneak in without getting caught." Superdog said.
"Yeah. Like if we were like Isis and Catwoman." Max suggested.
"May I be of assistance?" Isis asked from right behind them.
The group yelped and flinched since they weren't expecting that.
"Whoops." Isis smirked.
"Isis..." Superdog said to the cat. "I suppose now you can redeem yourself and doing something useful for the Dog Star Patrol after all."
"I thought so." Isis said.
"How did you get in here?" Zack asked her.
"I was able to get here by Superdog without him knowing." Isis told them.
"How'd you do that?" Esmeralda asked.
"I'm a cat, we can be pretty sneaky," Isis replied before smirking. "Especially me whenever I'd help Catwoman sneak into museums and Wayne Manor at times."
"Very well, Isis," Brainy Barker said to the adult female cat. "Can we trust you to do a job for us and to not betray us?"
"I most certainly will not," Isis reassured. "You should know that Catwoman made the same promise to The Justice League after she was able to hook up with Batman and they might even get married in the near future."
"Good to know." Rose said.
"So when do you think he'll strike?" Zoe asked.
"Probably very soon since all of the humans are still asleep," Isis replied. "So he might strike when the town is defenseless enough to take down without warning and it'll surely be a big and scary wake-up call for the whole tri-state area."
"Yep, and thinking like him, he'd most likely attack right away after getting a good reading." Thunder Mutt said.
"Yeah, that sounds like Mechanikat." Paw Pooch added.
"So, shall I get going then?" Isis asked as she yawned and stretched.
"If you don't mind, that might be imperative." Brainy Barker advised.
"What does that mean?" Squeaky asked.
"Very, very, very important." Superdog explained.
"Very well... Off I go." Isis nodded before she took off with her own speed as an agile and frisky cat, leaving the Dog Stars' headquarters right away and going to spy on Mechanikat for them.
"So how do you think she's getting there?" Rose asked.
"She'll think of something," Brainy Barker replied. "But if I had to guess, she's going to find a special way inside, that maybe not even Mechanikat knows about."
"Clever." Max said.
"So when do you think he'll get some reading?" Jack asked.
Mechanikat smirked as he had gotten the reading he needed before striking. Everyone was fast asleep, even the Toon Force before Lionel woke up first.
"WAH!" Lionel yelped before looking around. "Phew... That's the last time I eat leftover Chinese food before bed."
There was then a very loud bump and bang outside that nearly shook the whole town awake.
"Saaaay... What's goin' on here?" Lionel narrowed his eyes as he soon got out of bed and decided to do a little exploring, leaving a note for Cherry on her door as he went to investigate and he soon saw that something was going on that seemed not so normal for everyone.
Isis soon looked around as she dashed around and went to find Mechanikat's lair as a brand new day started and that meant that it was time for the plan. "Now if I were a lair for an evil part cat, part robot, where would I be?" she soon asked herself. She then saw where Mechanikat's lair which was in space and where she soon used one of the spareships the Dog Stars had and made her way over to a back entrance that Mechanikat didn't know and made sure he didn't see her. "All right, now what are you up to?" she asked firmly as she looked around the room as Mechanikat was putting on the final arrangements for his plan.
"Just about done..." Mechanikat said to himself.
"Purrfect~" Delilah smirked.
"Not if the Dog Stars have anything to say about that." Isis narrowed her eyes.
"I suppose you'll strike now?" Delilah asked.
"Yes, I suppose now would be a good time, and also a little persuasion to be thrown Tripod's way." Mechanikat chuckled darkly.
"Ooh... Excellent." Delilah smirked.
"Yes, it is excellent and perfect." Mechanikat smirked back.
Isis glared as she crept in further and further and looked around to see if she could stop this.
"Hmm... Some readings say that some people are waking up." Mechanikat said as he checked his readings.
"Looks like they're gonna be late for work and school today." Delilah snickered.
"Well, their day is going to get a lot worse," Mechanikat smirked. "Because once I have my Cat Star Patrol there will be no one to stop me, not even the Dog Star Patrol or Superdog, especially once my other invention helps our little guest join our side."
"Gotta love it when villains reveal their plans out loud like this." Isis snarked to herself.
"Go check on those brats and see if they're awake." Mechanikat soon commanded to Delilah.
"Yes, of course." Delilah groaned before she ran off.
"And while she's doing that, I shall strike the Dog Star Patrol," Mechanikat smirked as he pressed a button causing his weapon system to shoot at the Dog Star Patrol HQ. "That should catch their attention, then when they enter I'll have my machine make copies of them, except for Superdog; I'll have my special surprise waiting for him."
Isis looked wide-eyed and scared to death as she went to run out.
"And what do I have here?" Mechanikat grinned as he went to stop her. "A spy?"
"Try and catch me, I dare you." Isis glared as she scratched at him with her claws before she took off running outside of his lair.
"Katbots, stop her!" Mechanikat ordered through a microphone.
The Katbots soon made their way to Isis to stop her from leaving. Isis looked around and soon dodged, dipped, and ducked as much as she could against the Katbots.
"Don't let her get away so easily..." Mechanikat narrowed his eyes.
Isis kept running and even jumped up against the walls, making some Katbots run into each other and whacking her tail as a distraction.
Delilah was soon coming over to Snooky and Tripod as both were still trying to sleep. "Aw," she then smirked before shouting. "Get up, you two! It's time to wake up!"
Snooky and Tripod yelped as they suddenly woke up.
"Good morning..." Delilah grinned at them.
"Go away..." Tripod groaned as he turned away. "It's way too early for this."
"I'm sorry, but my job is to give you a wake up call, so you gotta get up now," Delilah replied. "You got a complaint, talk it up with Mechanikat."
"Ugh... I'm already his hostage, now I have to get a wake up call?" Tripod groaned.
"Yes, now the two of you, get up." Delilah said.
"We're up... We're up..." Snooky groaned as he yawned. "I don't think even the sun is awake."
"Shake those legs," Delilah told them. "Mechanikat would love to see you."
"I'd love to rip him up if I had the chance," Tripod narrowed his eyes. "Maybe I'll start with you, lady. Get a little practice in."
"Ooh, some fight in this puppy," Delilah smirked as she unlocked the cage Tripod was in. "Just come with me and to make certain of that I'll get a five second head start..."
Once Tripod was free, he saw Delilah run ahead before chasing after her with Snooky following.
"Wait up!" Snooky called out.
Delilah laughed as she ran down the hallway, making Snooky and Tripod chase her.
Isis kept on fighting the Katbots the best that she could, but one of them soon grabbed her so that she couldn't leave and she wasn't strong like the Dog Stars since she was a sneaking cat and not a superhero cat like Streaky.
"Ah, good our little spy has been apprehended," Mechanikat smirked evilly. "Now all we have to do is wait for the rest of my plan to continue without anything in the way."
"Let me go!" Isis hissed.
"I'm sorry, but you brought this out on yourself." Mechanikat sneered.
"They're coming!" Delilah told him as she came running in as she was by the Katbots.
"Ah... Excellent..." Mechanikat grinned.
Isis grunted and struggled.
"Don't struggle," Mechanikat told Isis. "That'll be bad for you... I'll deal wih you momentarily... Right now, I have a child to use for my ultimate plan and weapon."
Tripod kept running to try and catch Delilah so then he could get his paws on her to strangle her with Snooky following behind him.
"And speaking of which, there he is right now." Mechanikat smirked.
"Mechanikat." Tripod glared before growling.
"Hello there, my boy, so good to see you," Mechanikat grinned. "I was hoping we could talk."
"I'm not listening to a word you have to say!" Tripod glared. "Now get me out of here before Superdog flies in and kicks your butt!"
"Oh, but Tripod I just want to talk, no need to get violent for you see I know all about you," Mechanikat smirked. "You're different from other puppies and you have an amazing dream to have powers. And guess what? I can help you get your very own powers."
"You can? How?" Tripod asked.
"So, you're going to listen?" Mechanikat grinned.
"...Yeah, whatever." Tripod rolled his eyes.
"Tripod, don't listen to-" Snooky tried to protest only for Delilah to cover his mouth with her paw.
"I might have made something very special just for you," Mechanikat grinned at Tripod. "I might be evil and cunning, but I can easily make all of your dreams come true if you trust me just this once~"
"Can you really give me powers?" Tripod asked Mechanikat.
"Yes, of course." Mechanikat smirked.
"How?" Tripod asked.
"With this," Mechanikat smirked as he showed one of the inventions that wasn't being used. "This is my Superpower 9000 it can give you superpowers without any weaknesses of whatever powers they might be. The screen will even show you your future with me if you join me."
"You would let me use that and not on yourself?" Tripod asked suspiciously. "I dunno..."
"Oh, come along now," Mechanikat smirked. "I know what I did, but surely you know that even evil has standards."
Tripod narrowed his eyes as he turned away. "...It would be cool and awesome to have powers like someone like Superdog..." he had to admit. "But... I-I don't know if I can do that."
"Just take a look for yourself." Mechanikat said.
"Hmm... Well..." Tripod said, thinking about it.
Snooky began to struggle while muffling something to Tripod.
"Okay, I'll take a look and see what the future holds for me." Tripod said as he walked up to the invention Mechanikat mentioned.
"Excellent..." Mechanikat grinned. "Who's your favorite superhero?" he then asked, as if he didn't already know.
"Superdog!" Tripod beamed.
Snooky muffled and shook his head while Delilah just grinned at him darkly.
"Ooh... Excellent choice." Mechanikat smirked as he turned on the Superpower 9000 as the screen began to turn on like a TV as he began to type in Kryptonian powers before entering it in.
The invention soon began to show Tripod a future of with him having the same powers as Superdog only with one extra power and no weakness to Kryptonite.
"Whoa... Is that me?" Tripod asked.
"Yep, just like Superdog, but much better," Mechanikat smirked. "No weaknesses which means you will always win against the fight of good and evil."
"Sounds nice, but also kinda boring if you ask me." Isis snarked to herself about always winning with no challenge whatsoever.
"You can have all of this and more and it won't even matter if you only have three legs," Mechanikat grinned. "It's that easy."
"Almost sounds too good to be true." Tripod said, still amazed.
"You're telling me." Isis rolled her eyes.
"With this machine, I can help you have those powers and everything in your little world will be perfect." Mechanikat smirked at Tripod.
"Everything in my little world will be perfect." Tripod said as he looked hypnotized while looking at the screen.
Snooky muffled and struggled.
"Shh!" Delilah hissed as she held onto the kitten tightly.
"Mechanikat, I would be honored!" Tripod soon said.
"That's what I thought you'd say." Mechanikat smirked as he pulled a lever on the invention.
After the lever was pulled, the machine soon began to power up the ray that was attached to it and fired at Tripod, giving him the powers he saw. Tripod grunted at first as he accepted the power.
"This will work out just fine," Mechanikat smirked. "Now, this might tickle for a bit."
Delilah and Mechanikat both chuckled while Snooky struggled and Isis felt concerned. Tripod kept grunting as he felt the power coursing through his body and once the machine stopped he soon felt himself change his age from puppy to a grown dog that was the same age as Krypto. Delilah grinned as she then let go of Snooky, dropping the kitten on his face a little.
"Ugh!" Snooky groaned before looking up at his friend. "T-Tripod... Is that you?"
"Yeah, Snooky, it's me," Tripod replied with a slightly deeper voice. "And I feel amazing."
"You sure look amazing for a dog." Delilah smirked.
"Thankfully the Superpower 9000 also comes with a mirror," Mechanikat said as he pressed a button on the invention, causing a normal mirror to come out. "Take a look, Tripod, at your all powerful self."
Tripod looked over and soon stepped into the mirror as he looked very different indeed... Bigger, stronger, and not to mention older. "Whoa! I look incredible. Guess this is what I look like when I'm older." he then smirked as he flexed his front leg.
"And here's something to help you look the part." Mechanikat smirked as he held a cape and S-Shield dog tag.
"Is that for me?" Tripod asked.
"All yours," Mechanikat nodded. "Wear it with pride."
Tripod soon accepted the cape and began to look at himself in the mirror in admiration and amazement.
"Red's a good color for you." Delilah said with a smirk.
"I look awesome and strong." Tripod smirked back.
"Now, time to get The Dog Stars to come here so their copies can be made." Mechanikat smirked as well.
"Tripod, can't you see that he's using you?" Snooky asked his friend.
"Look at me, Snooky, I'm amazing!" Tripod smirked. "Now no one will ever make fun of me again!"
"And looks like the Dog Stars are coming." Delilah smirked.
The Dog Star Patrol were soon seen going to Mechanikat's ship with Superdog and where unknown to them, the Superdog Fan Club members were going to arrive there as well.
