REVIEW RESPONSE

PurpleCobra247: When I was writing the last chapter of the previous FoxFang, I was trying to think of which of my three stories I should do first. I then saw a Batman Vs Catwoman cartoon so that's why I'm doing the Catwoman parody first. He/She will make an appearance in this chapter. Glad you like it.

Nightw2: I'm assuming that you've figured out who the fourth FoxFang will spoof. Anyway, I'm glad you like this so far.

Rock Raider: One note of correction, the crook in the previous chapter was a Miss, not a Mrs. But thanks for your review anyway. You'll have to wait until the fourth FoxFang to see what happens with that situation.

acosta pérez josé ramiro: Yep, a classic super villian creation accident. It will certinly come back to haunt Jess and Zach. The name you said n your review isn't the name of the catwoman parody, but you were close. As for who He/She is, I won't say. Thanks for your review anyway.

A new Vigilante?

Bugs and Lola's car arrive outside the Looniversity at about 8:00. They had about an hour until the firrst lessons started but as it was a new year, the children would meet in the main hall for Bugs' welcome and to receive their timetables. Bugs, Lola and Jessica were the first to arrive. Bugs and Lola went into the building while Jessica went towards the playground. In the playground was a grassy field for sports games and some play equipment like swings and slides. Jessica went towards the swing at the far end of the playground. It was a blue coloured swing on a single stand. It was her favourite swing and in the prevoius year, she went to that swing when she needed time alone. Most of the other stayed away from her when she wanted to be alone, mostly because they were scared of her tantrums. Sly Jr. once remarked that she was more dangerous than Taz at sometimes. At the time, Jessica got angry at that remark, but now she looked back, she realised that he was quite right, especially since she had taken on her new role. Of course, she had to keep her strength as she could quite easily hurt someone the way she was now and she didn't want to spoil her new year at school. While she was on the swing, she began to feel guilty about the previous night. It was the first time that she had witnessed the death of a criminal. Half of her mind told her that it was not her fault and she shounldn't worry, but the other half told her that6 she should've cuffed Vanessa quicker. She sat on the swing for about 10 minutes until she felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned around in surprise but sighed in relief when she saw Zach standing behind her.

"Hi Zach." Jessica greeted.

"You look depressed, are you ok?" Zach asked. Jessica climbed off the swing and sat on the ground.

"No, I'm being plagued by a guilty conscious." Zach had a quick look around the playground. They were the only two people around.

"You mean about last night?"

"Yeah. One half of my mind is telling me that I could have done something."

"It was my fault. I sould have stopped her instead of standing still." Jessica then sighed.

"I don't think it's worth dwelling on last night. Water under the bridge, they say."

Yeah, we can't exactly change what happened. It was an accident and that's that." Jessica smiled and looked at her watch. It was 8:15 and they had half an hour until Bugs' welcome speech. Being the first day, the school began 15 minutes earlier than normal.

"We've got time until the opening speech, how about a race." Jessica suggested.

"I suppose, it will keep us fit." Zach replied.

"Ok, 10 laps around the play field, starting from this swing."

"Or until one of us collapses from exhaustion." Jessica laughed at that remark.

"Shame un whoever does." After that, they both began running around the play equipment as fast as they could. The play equipment included a climbing frame, swings, slides and monkey bars. The total running distances was long enough to take 20 minutes to complete. Jessica won the race by a whisker but neither of them were tired out.

"Whew, good race." Zach complimented.

"It was close." Jessica replied.

"I'll win next time though." They both started laughing. Jessica then had a look at her watch and realised that they had 10 minutes until the speech.

"We'd better head to the hall. Everyone else will have arrived by now."

"Yeah, let's go." They both walked together uup to the main building and to the main hall.

Jessica and Zach arrived in the hall with 5 minutes to spear until the speech began. Half of the other children had already arrived. The main hall was fairly large to accommodate all the children and staff. The floor was painted like a basket ball court as it used to be the gym. The doors to the old locker rooms had been long sealed. The hall was filled with seats, none of which were umbered as childrentwere trusted to find their own seats. The hall was bare of pictures as they were scattered throughout the rest of the school. Jessica and Zach found a couple of seats in between Syilvester Jr. and Henry Hawk. As they sat down, Sylvester Jr gave Jessica a sly look.

"How was your holiday Jessy?" Sylvester Jr. asked. At that, Jessica gave him a slap around the face. She held back a lot of her strength to avoid hurting him.

"Don't you DARE call me that." Jessica snapped.

"Ohh, you don't have to be so touchy."

"Look, just don't call me that, and you may keep your tail."

"I take that as a threat." Before an argument could begin, Zach grabbed Jessica's shoulder and pulled her away.

"Jess, there's no point in fighting. He's just a jerk so ignore him." Zach said calmly. Jessica sighed and calm down.

"Ok, you're right." Jessica replied. Sylvester Jr. had been insulted by Zach's comment.

"Zach, are you trying to start something?" Sylvester Jr. asked.

"No, I was just saying the truth." Zach replied. Sylvester Jr. then lost it and tried to scratch Zach. Zach was able to grab Sylvester Jr's hand before it came even close.

"Calm down." Zach instructed. Sylvester Jr. sighed and was forced to calm down.

"Only to keep you happy. You were probably worried that Jessica would be beaten into the ground anyway." Sylvester Jr. muttered. Jessica and Zach discretely exchanged a 'Yeah, right´ look but said nothing.

"Guys, the speech is about to begin." Henry Hawk said. Everyone turned their attention to the front, where Bugs was standing. Behind him was a curtain hiding a picture.

When Bugs was sure he had everyone's attention, he began his welcome speech.

"Greetings everyone. It is my pleasure to welcome you all back for the new year. We have a squad of 20 new pupils with us this year, which I bid a very warm welcome. After my speech, you will all be given your timetables for the year. And now, for the unveiling of our annual 'Idol of the Term'. For those new, let me explain. Every term, we choose a person who has been in the news and we focus on that person in certain lessons. You may not be surprised at the 'Idol of the term' but we shall unveil anyway!" Bugs gave a signal and Daffy opened the curtain. Behind the curtain was a giant picture frame entitled, 'Idol of the Term'. The picture inside the frame was FoxFang. Everyone in the room cheered while Jessica and Zach smiled. Then everyone began applauding. Jessica and Zach said absolutely nothing.

"As you are no doubt aware, the person is FoxFang, a vigilante that has recently appeared in the city. I gather that some of you may have met him. If you have, we would appreciate it if you shared your stories. I must say firstly that I personally have met FoxFang on not 1, not 2 but 3 occasions. Whoever he is, he is our 'Idol of the Term'. And as for the usual 'Idol Master' competition, I want all of you to do some research into this Vigilante and write an essay. The winner of the competition will be awarded the usual Idol Master trophy." Half of the children, mostly the new ones, groaned in annoyance while the other half cheered in the decision. While everyone around them wa cheering, Jessica and Zach discretely exchanged a 'too easy' look at each other, wlthough they said nothing. Jessica then began having thoughts on the competition. Tweety and Aaooga began flying around the room, handing out timetables to everyone.

"Ok, now you shall all be receiving your timetables for the year. You first lessins will begin once I have finished. For those that are new, they will stay behind for an induction into the academic life. For the rest of you, I hope you enjoy your new year. Apart from the first years, this assembly is now over." Everyone gave a round of applause before all the xecond years and above left the hall. People were in the same classes as they were in the last year, which meant Jessica and Zach were still together. They had a look at their timetables when they were outside the hall.

"Looks like we have history with Petunia first." Jessica said. She was secretly concerned as to whether Petunia would be up to the task.

"Then we have gym before our break." Zach added, also concerned about Petunia.

"Then Toon Physics, then lunch."

"Then biology and finally Arithmatic."

"Groan, not my favourite subject."

"What, arithmatic?"

"No, I hate it."

"So do I." The two began walking to where their first lesson was.

At the end of thee day, when Arithmatc had finally finished, Jessica went over to the Principles office. She always went there at the end of the day to meet her parents. Zach had gone off to find Daffy and head home. Jessica found the Principles office and went inside. The office was a standard offfice with a file cabinet near the door and a desk in the centre. There were some other chairs in the room, mostly of a similar standard to the chairs Jessica sat on during classes. There was also a finger print scan lock safe in the corner. The main desk was cluttered with pieces of paper, which got Jessica worried as it was unlike Bugs to be messy. She saw Bugs sitting at his desk with his head in his hands. Lola was also sitting ni the room with her hand on her forehead. Just by looking at them, Jessica could tell something was wrong.

"Mum, dad, are you ok?" Jessica asked. Bugs looked up from his position and saw Jessica at the door.

"Jess, we're not feeling too well." Bugs replied.

"What's wrong?"

"I think we've caught a fever, at least I have. I also have a real headache."

"Perhaps you're having side effects from what you did during Toon Physics."

"Maybe, I didn't expect that anvil to fall on me."

"But what about mum?"

"I don't know. I feel dizzy and have a real headache." Lola replied. There came a knock at the door.

"I'll get that." Jessica said. She went up to the door and opened it. She found Daffy, Melissa and Zach outside the door. Daffy was holding a pair of car keys.

"Hi daff, thanks for coming." Bugs greeted.

"How are you feeling?" Daffy asked.

"Really rotten." Bugs replied.

"Same here." Lola added.

"Come on, let's get you guys home." Melissa said.

"Jess, we'll probably be off work for a week." Bugs said.

"But how am I going to come here?" Jessica asked.

"I'll pick you up and take you with us." Daffy replied.

"Thanks."

"No problem."

"Come onl, let's get you guys home." Melissa said.

Bugs and Lola had an early night that evening, still feeling unwell, but it gave Jessica a chance to go to the Foxcave earlier than normal. She arrived at the Foxcave at 11:00, half an hour earlier than when she'd normally arrive. It gave Plucky, Shirley and Egghead Jr. a big surprise. Plucky was the first to speak.

"You're here earlier than normal." Plucky said.

"My parents aren't too well and had an early night, but it has worked to my advantage." Jessica replied.

"Oh, what's wrong with them?"

"Dad had a real headache and a fever. Mum has a fever and some sort of tummy bug."

"Do you think they'll be ok?"

"They will be off work for a while."

"Hope they recover soon."

"I'm assuming that FoxFang's the Idol of the term." Shirley said.

"Yep." Jessica replied.

"So, there's a competition to do some research on him."

"Sure is." Zach soon arrived in the Foxcave. He wasn't surprised to see Jessica as he had guessed that Bugs and Lola would get an early night.

"Hi Zach." Plucky greeted.

"Jessica's telling us about the fact that FoxFang's the Idol of the term." Shirley added.

"Yep, The little competition should be easy." Zach replied.

"Actually, we need to be careful." Jessica said.

"Why?"

"If we put too much detail, wouldn't the staff get a little suspicious?"

"You're right, what do you suggest?"

"I suggest we delibrately lose the contest." As Jessica said this, the Fangwave sounded.

"Uh oh, what's happening?" Plucky asked. The computer screens started bleeping at a museum near the centre of town.

"Someone's triggered the silent alarm at the Looney museum." Shirley said.

"Zach, let's suit up!" Jessica snapped. Within a few seconds, they were in the FoxFang and Cub attire. They left the Foxcave through a secret exit that led to a tree in the park and went straight for the museum.

At te Looney museum, a shadowy figure had gained access to the fossil exhibit. The figure was as black as FoxFang and had a similar design, except the suit had two horn like appendages on the head and a design of an Ox on the front. He was no bigger than Jessica or Zach. The figure approached the display case that contained a fossil of a long dead sea creature. The figure was eyeing the fossil with glee.

"Wow, this is a catch." The figure muttered. He pressed a button on one of his horns and a sharp blade appeared at the tip of both horns. He leapt at the glass containing the fossil. The blades latched onto the glass easily. The figure then rotated his body, using the rotation to cut out a circle in the glass. Before the figure could reach for the fossil, FoxFang and Cub had landed behind him.

"Enjoying yourself?" FoxFang asked. The figure turned around suddenly. His mask did show his mouth, nose and eyes, but not enough to reveal his identity. The figure smiled.

"Well hello FoxFang. I figured you come here." The figure gloated.

"Who are you?"

"Call me…OxHorn. I've been dying to meet you."

"Not what, who?" FoxFang leapt at the figure but he was easily able to jump out of the way.

"Catch me if you can." OxHorn leapt up to the ceiling and grabbed one of the support pillars. Cub leapt after him and grabbed ther same pillar, but on the other side. They both looked around the pillar and stared at each other.

"You guys are really good." OxHorn muttered.

"Try not to lose you grip." Cub sneered.

"I won't fall." OxHorn dug his horns into the pillar as he said this. This was the distraction that FoxFang needed to grab the roof with her grapple gun. She snuck up behind OxHorn and jumped onto him. She pulled him off the pillar and they both fell. Both of them landed on their feet and glared at each other.

"Enough with the playing around." FoxFang scolded. Cub jumped down and landed behind OxHorn.

"You're surrounded, give it up." Cub ordered.

"Cute, but if you corner an Ox, you get gored." OxHorn scolded. FoxFang and Cub both leapt at him together. OxHorn went onto one foot and spun in a circle. His horns caught FoxFang and Cub with a glancing blow, but they were knocked back by the rotations. Before they could conitinue, the sound of sirens were heard.

"Well, that's my cue. That was fun, we should do that again sometime." OxHorn said before leaping out of a nearby window. FoxFang and Cub quickly went to the window, but Oxhorn was nowhere in sight.

"Dang." Cub scolded.

"At least he didn't get away with anything." FoxFang muttered. They looked around and saw a police officer looking around the corner. He was a human officer of average build. He was of black skin with dark hair. The officer immediately held out his police badge.

"You have the right to remain silent!" The officer shouted.

"We don't have time for this." FoxFang muttered. She and Cub used their grapple guns to escape, leaving the police officer fuming.

"DANG IT!" The officer shouted. Another officer, this one a white female with long blonde hair, came rushing to him.

"What happened Eric?" The second officer asked.

"Lucy, I just saw the FoxFang." Eric replied.

"And he got away."

"Yeah, and his little sidekick."

"But the boss wants those vigilante's down. We'll have to find them again."

FoxFang and Cub had returned to the Foxcave.. They were both weary and surprised. They had no idea that the police were after them until now, unless it was a recent order. They went over to the mother computer and took off their masks. Plucky, Shirley and Egghead Jr. looked at them with concern. They could tell that Jessica and Zach were troubled by something.

"What's wrong?" Plucky asked.

"Guys, somehow, we've gotten ourselves on the wrong side of the law." Jessica replied.

"What?"

"A police officer tried to arrest us while we were at the museum."

"Probably a case of mistaken identity." Eggghead Jr was punching at the keyboard. He eventually pulled out a floppy disk and showed it to everyone.

"What's on that disk?" Zach asked. Egghead put the disk back in and played what was on the disk. It was a CCTV footage filmed inside the police station shortly after the Pranker incident. There was a large male human sitting at the desk. The film was black and white, but the person was obviously white and overweight. He was smoking a cigar while talking to the two officers. They were the two main officers that had tried to arrest FoxFang and Cub.

"Look at this newspaper. This FoxFang is causing trouble for our police force. It just seems that we aren't needed." The officer shouted.

"Boss, if it weren't for FoxFang, this whole city would be in turmoil from this Pranker dude and the bunny family might be dead." Eric protested.

"I don't care. He could ruin my reputation. Catch him and bring him to justice!" The officer ordered.

"Much as I hate to say this, but we have to do it." Lucy muttered. Egghead Jr. stopped the recording after that line.

"Obviously a stubborn officer doesn't like you guys." Shirley said.

"Yet another reason why not to trust the police. You try and do them a favour and you get sour carrots in return." Jessica muttered. The video had clearly weakened her trust for the police.

"How did you get that film?" Zach asked.

"Must have hacked into the police files." Plucky replied.

"Hope we weren't detected." Shirley muttered.

"By the way, what happened at the museum?" Plucky asked. Jessica and Zach told everyone about OxHorn and what happened.

"Looks like you guys are in for a big fight." Plucky muttered. Jessica then began to walk to the passage that led to her house.

"Guys, I'm heading for bed." Jessica called out. Zach ran up to her.

"See you tomorrow morning when we pick you up." Zachsaid.

"And don't let Daffy be late." With that remark, Jessica gave Zach a kiss on the lips before heading back to her home.

The next day, Jessica and Zach were walking down a corridor on the looniversity heading towards teir first lesson. They had their lesson on outsmarting enemies. As it was last academic year, the teacher was Tweety. It was probably their favourite lesson as it was more practical than anything. Bugs and Lola were back at home on sick leave due to their little fever. The two of them were passing through an empty locker on the way to Tweety's class.

"A quiet corridor, you don't see this often." Jessica muttered.

"I know, highly unusual." Zach replied. They were interrupted by their portable Fangwaves. It was lucky no one was around. Jessica pulled the fangwave out of her pocket and had a look.

"Where's the disturbance?" Zach asked. Jessica's expression turned serious.

"According to the Fangwave, here." Jessica replied.

"Then we'd better be on our guard."

"Let's get to Tweety first." They both ran as fast as they could and got to Tweety's class with two minutes to spear. When they got there, they found Deputy Principle Daffy waiting in the classroom.

"Don't worry, you're not late. I do have something to say though." Daffy said, gesturing them to enter. Tweety was at the desk with a few pieces of paper. Jessica and Zach took their seats at a desk in the centre of the room. Everyone gave their full attention to Daffy.

"Ahem, I just wanted to let you all know that the Principle isn't in today on account of fever, and will be off work for a few days, so I will be principle until he returns." Daffy began. Everyone in the room remained quiet in shock.

"So, who will be taking Physics and Gym?" Henry Hawk asked.

"That is yet to be decided. It will depend on who's availible. Daffy replied.

"Is that all?" Sylvester Jr. asked.

"There is one thing!" Came a voice from the door. Everyone turned their heads towards the door. They saw a figure that a few people recognised and was horrified to see.

(A/N: Ok, I know that was long, but I hope you liked it. Now, who is the figure at the door? Feel free to guess. You'll find out next chapter. Please read and review for now.)
