Ok thanks so much for reviewing Boogle and thanx for all the praise and everything, and glad I helped you with the Holly watch idea. Invasion ain't that good a title for this chapter but Rescue is the title of the 5th and final chapter so I think you can guess whats going to happen, anyway enjoy and a polymorph Cat & Kira story is planned, and I've nearly finished Seeing Double, I thought it was at a dead end but my mate Josh gave me a neat idea so I'll post seeing Double soon (non Cat & Kira story)
Anyway read on and review please people!
Invasion
Kryten and Cat – who had done a quick suit change, materialised in one of the many dingy corridors of the GELF ship. "Now what bud?" Cat asked quietly, holding the two bazookoids in front of him and twirling on the spot, waiting for a ambush or something to happen.
"I suggest you locate them using your nose sir – before we are detected." Kryten recommended.
"Give me a second bud, this place reeks more than monkey's sock basket." Cat moaned, trying to pick out the GELF's from the ship and his daughter and Lister from the surrounding smells. His nose winkled in disgust and get gagged slightly feeling sorry for Dani, he strained his ears but reasoned they must be at the far side of the ship, or at least in a sound proof room as he could not hear her crying. "What about the scanny thing?" Cat asked after a moment.
"I'm afraid I neglected to bring the psi-scan sir." Kryten admitted, feeling slightly foolish as they began to creep down the corridor.
"I can smell them now, their down here somewhere, can't make out the GELF's scents very well though, my vision will pick them up at a closer proximity though." Cat whispered.
"Maybe so sir, but it appears they know exactly where we are – dim ship lighting or not." Kryten observed at a klaxon began to blare somewhere above their heads. "So I believe now would be a good time to make as Mister Lister would, and "leg" it."
"Good idea bud." Cat replied but made no move to follow Kryten.
"Sir? You said yourself the others are down here."
"Yeah but my nose is telling the GELF smells apart and our welcome party is coming from down there – you don't think I'm gonna run towards those things do you?" Cat asked as he grabbed Kryten by his robotic arm and the two started to run down the corridor.
They soon found themselves in a cargo bay, they ducked behind some boxes to recover their bearings and think of a plan.
"What we do now?" Cat asked, gasping for breath. "I can smell them getting nearer, and I didn't bring any clothes that go with brown."
"The air ducts sir? I doubt they could follow or track us in there." Kryten began to pull at an air vent, but before they could move another inch a hoard of GELF's surrounded them, all bearing weapons.
"Forget that!" Cat cried as he grabbed the other side of the teleporter and punched some buttons, the two crewmates disappeared from the GELF's vision as they fired several rounds.
The two re-materialised a behind the GELF's and after checking he hadn't been shot Cat started to lead Kryten in the direction of their target as quickly as they could, though it wasn't long before they had to start ducking a long the way as the GELF's caught up.
"We better loose the hairy grandmas before we get them." Cat said to Kryten as he turned right at a junction instead of left which led to the room where his kitten and Lister were being held.
