Commander Feral stood amid the smoldering ruins of Ms. Briggs downstairs, a grim expression occupying his face. With him was his niece Felina, who he could tell was deeply distressed at what seemed to be the violent kidnapping of her close friend.

Looking down at his watch he saw that it was now 8:00, and he could tell right now that it was going to be a long, hard day.

"Uncle, look at this!" Felina exclaimed as she bent down to pick something up out of the rubble. He watched as Felina pulled out a metal plate, one that clearly belonged to one of the Metalikats. "I knew it." Feral growled as he took it out of Felina's hand.

"This isn't good Uncle." Felina acknowledged worriedly, studying her Uncle's face intently.

"No it isn't." He replied, his face still set in a grim, menacing scowl. "Those Metalikats are not very fond of Ms. Briggs, and I know they would love to even out a few things with her in a none negotiable way." Felina shook her head as she turned and looked around her. "It happened sometime late last night by the way fires are now." Feral continued as he followed Felina's gaze to a smoldering heap of what used to be a phone stand. "We might still have a chance of saving her if we hurry."

Feral walked out the door to his car calling Felina to follow after him. Just as she was about to leave a loud crunch emitted from under her right foot.

Picking up her foot she peered down at a couple of white and red pieces. She bent down and picked the 4 pieces up carefully and laid them out on her hand. She moved the pieces around until she found out that she could somewhat put them back together, and as she did so she discovered that they made a white and red triangle and when put upside down formed a well known cal sign. "The Swat Kats." Felina gasped under breath as she studied it closer. "So this is how Callie contacted them, they gave her a communicator." She whispered with small grin on her face. "If she was able to signal the Swat Kats before it got destroyed then she might be already rescued...what would Uncle say to that?" She put the pieces into her pocket and walked out the door to join her Uncle, feeling much more at ease.

"Okay people listen up, I want the whole city searched and scanned over, four squads for four directions, North, South, East and West. And I want a squadron of jets and helicopters scanning the areas that are not reached by vehicle. Now, Do I have any volunteers." Feral's voice boomed out across the full room of enforcers, who looked at each other expectantly.

Felina instantly rose up her hand and much to her dismay Steele raised his hand and waved it in anticipation. Feral moaned quietly to himself as he saw Steele's hand.

"Does anyone ELSE volunteer?" Almost reluctantly all the enforcers raised their hand, not all that anxious to go against the Metalikats. "Good, I didn't expect anything less, now about the squadron teams..." Feral began but was erupted by a shriek from Sami Higgins, a helicopter pilot.

He looked at her expectantly, and she in return pointed towards the window showing the pains of his very existence...The Swat Kats.

They were hovering outside the window, looking in at Feral with grins that he didn't like or trust at all. "Open the window!" he shouted as he walked what was known to the Swat Kats as the "Feral" walk and leaned out of the window. "What are you two hotshots doing here, turning yourselves in at last?"

"Ahhh no, we tried to yesterday but you weren't in so we'll try again next week." T-Bone replied sarcastically as his grin grew from ear to ear.

Feral's face turned a dark shade of red as he inquired again, trying to control the shakiness in his voice. "What are you doing here?"

Razor smiled as he leaned back into his seat with a matter of fact smile on his face. "We know where Ms. Briggs is commander."

Feral's angry expression turned into one of anxious interest as he leaned farther out the window, not even noticing the heads that were behind and beside him also sharing his interest. "Go on..." He growled with an eyebrow cocked.

"She was taken by Dark Kat, not the Metalikats. He just took their parts and distributed them throughout the wreckage of her house making it look like they took her instead."

Feral looked at them distrustfully as he digested this newly attained information. "Now why should I believe you two?"

T-Bone smirked as he answered. "Do you actually have any other evidence proving that it was actually the Metalikats besides a couple pieces of metal and their so called trademark?"

Feral opened his mouth to reply but quickly closed it and cleared his throat.

"Hhhmmpp, I thought not. You know what they say, ask a stupid question and you'll receive a stupid answer."

Feral growled under his breath as he breathed in still struggling to control his temper. "You still haven't answered my question Swat Kats..." He hissed in contempt. "How do I know your telling the truth?"

Razor sighed wearily as he answered Feral's question. "When the Metalikats disappeared a couple months ago I was suspicious, so I made Ms. Briggs a watch that had a silent emergency alarm in it so if she needed immediate help she could get a hold of us. I also rigged a tracker in it so we can find her incase she was taken...and like I thought it would, it has come in pretty handy."

Feral gave Razor a jealous, menacing look as he studied his two competitors. "And why are you two telling me this, since you usually act on your own accord without ever telling me anything?"

T-Bone winced at the thought of what Razor was about to say. "Because, this particular situation is somewhat beyond our reach...we need your help." Razor answered calmly and surely. Feral along with his enforcers stared at them for several seconds, struck dumb with what they just heard coming from what they thought the unbeatable Swat Kats.

Feral's scowl slowly twisted up into a smirk, and that as if a cue set off an explosion of laughter from the Enforcers, which was quickly followed by Feral's loud, gruff laugh.

T-Bone's face quickly turned a bright color of red from anger, while Razor closed his eyes and moaned. "Help? The unbeatable, super heroes of MegaKat city are asking the Enforcers to HELP them?" Feral gasped in between barks of laughter.

"I told you they were going to act like this!" T-Bone growled at Razor as he fought to keep his temper. Razor gave a disciplining look towards T- Bone's direction who looked up and him in the mirror. T-Bone ignored it as he turned and glared over at the now red-faced enforcers who were leaning on each other still helplessly laughing. "Change the enforcer part into our sworn enemies then I think you will have it about right."

"Exactly my point, why would you two hotshots ask for my help...Heh did one of your guys brilliant plans backfire or something." Feral teased.

Razor's eyes flashed in anger as he gave Feral a reproachful look. "No, we're just being humble and are asking for help when we see that we need it, instead of obliviously and rather stupidly continue by ourselves until we've dug a hole so deep we can't get ourselves out... like someone we know."

Feral's gloating smile disappeared abruptly while the enforcers ceased their laughter and once again stared at Razor in shock at what he just said. Feral gave both the Swat Kats a genuine I-wish-looks-could-kill look as he answered in a deadly sort of calm voice. "You had better watch your mouth Swat Kat, cause if you don't I'll arrest you two in a quick hurry."

T-Bone snorted as he gave Feral a pitying look. "Yadda, Yadda heard that one countless times before, you've never been able to capture us...and with that in mind you probably never will."

Feral's paws balled up into huge fists as he quaked in anger. In fear, the enforcers backed off, knowing fully well how explosive the commander could get when provoked, and T-Bone had just made his temper reach beyond explosive.

Felina, who had been standing by the whole time shaking her head ran up to her Uncle and put a paw on his quivering shoulder. "Uncle don't, lets just listen to what they have to say, follow along and after we've got Ms. Briggs back safely...then you can plot to kill them." She reasoned motioning her head towards the Swat Kats who were smiling at Feral's reaction.

Feral's teeth grounded against each other as he continued to glare at the Swat Kats, but at the meantime listened to his niece. After a moment of listening to the quiet hum of the TurboKat's engines Feral finally nodded his head and folded his arms across his broad chest. "Alright Swat Kats, we'll help you, but keep this in mind that its for the Deputy Mayor...not for the sakes of you, am I clear."

T-Bone and Razor exchanged glances and nodded at each other. T-Bone turned and faced Feral with a broad grin on his face "Crystal."

Feral, with a scowl on his face as usual barked. "Good, I'll meet you two down on the air strip, and there had better be no tricks!" Then without a further word, Feral turned and stalked out of the room, calling the rest of the enforcers to follow him.

Felina waited till every enforcer had cleared the room before she turned to the Swat Kats with an amused look on her face. "You sure know what buttons to push, don't you guys?" T-Bone and Razor both coughed, trying in vain to stop the laughter that had been building up in them for the past 10 minutes.

Finally, unable to contain it any longer T-Bone burst out laughing a rich, hearty laugh while beating his hands on the armrests of his seat. Razor seconds later joined his friend in laughing after seeing him being completely swallowed in mirth. "Okay fellahs, get serious. My uncle is waiting for you down at the air strip."

T-Bone and Razor with an amount of effort quieted down. "Okay Lieutenant, hehehe, we'll head, hahaha, on down there." T-Bone managed to gasp as he enclosed the cockpit, and immediately after that started they both started laughing again.

Felina shook her head as T-Bone turned the jet around and headed towards the landing strip. "Oi." She laughed as she walked out, heading to the landing strip so she could keep the peace between the two enemies.

Callie moaned as she sat up in a dark, dank cell. The last thing she remembered was Dark Kat pressing a cloth over her mouth and nose with some kind of sleeping gas that knocked her out immediately as soon as she smelled the intoxicating vapors.

The sound of water dripping echoed throughout the dark cavern in which Callie was held. Guessing that she was either underground or in a cave she stood up shakily and leaned against the cold steel bars. As her head cleared and her eyes adjusted to the darkness she saw that she was indeed inside of a cave in what was probably a mountain. Callie rolled her eyes as she muttered under her breath. "Figures."

As she continued to look around the cave she saw that there were two passages that glowed in a faint light at the end of them. And if she listened intently she could faintly hear the continuous chattering of Creeplings and every few minutes would hear a loud "SHUT UP!!!" which was undoubtly Dark Kat.

She saw a huge shadow cover up the faint glow in the right side tunnel as she heard an evil cackle. Callie once again rolled her eyes as she went to the back of her cell and sat down on the sad excuse for a cot.

She watched as the vast, forbidding shadow increased in size as Dark Kat strode into the cavern and sent a look that sent a shiver down Callie's spine.

"Well, you're awake at last." He purred, his hideous face showing a look that was supposed to be pleasant and cheery.

Callie gave him a defiant look as she growled back. "Why would you care?"

Dark Kat threw his head back and let out an insane laugh that shook the cave, sending particles of rock cascading onto the floor.

Callie clasped her ears with her paws as she pressed herself harder against the rock, as if trying to escape her insane captor. After he was done, he had a gloating smile on his face. "Why, you are the most important ingredient to my ingenious plan to..." his smile disappeared abruptly as his face twisted under the influence of anger as he hissed "To get rid of the Swat Kats!"

Callie gave Dark Kat a pitying look as she answered in a matter of fact way. "And what makes you think that you'll catch them this time when your past attempts ended so badly for you? Ha, they'll bust your tail and will send you to Alkatraz, like they've done before."

Dark Kat's face scowl turned into a gloating smile once again as he listened to Callie's bold statement. "Ah, but not this time. You see, the Swat Kats are sadly predictable. They'll come running when they see that I have you."

Callie shook her head as she returned Dark Kat's smile with a smirk. "No they won't, they'll get you when you least expect it."

Dark Kat stared at Callie for a moment and much to her surprise, he started to chuckle. He turned and started to walk away towards the tunnel where he had come. He stopped at the front of the tunnel and said in a menacing voice. "Oh, believe me Ms. Briggs; they'll come running when they hear you screaming in pain."

And without another word, he disappeared into the tunnel, with his dark shadow lagging behind.
An awkward silence overcame the cavern, and Callie shivered at the words that seemed to hang in the air.

The two Swat Kats leaned against the TurboKat, watching the group of enforcer's converse quietly with Feral. T-Bone rolled his eyes and he murmured under his breath. "This is going to take all day."

Without even bothering to look at his friend Razor replied in a somewhat cheery voice "Patience is a virtue T-Bone."

T-Bone rolled his eyes and sneered mockingly. "Patience is a virtue T- Bone."

Razor fixed T-Bone with a reproachful glare, which made T-Bone grumble to himself quietly, as he stared fixedly at the landing strip. "We would have had the job done by now."

Razor rolled his eyes. "No T-Bone, we would have been captured along with Callie, undoubtedly tortured and killed, and the whole world would be in the power of Dark Crud, and all of that by now."

T-Bone stared down at Razor with a blank expression on his face, as he inquired, "Aren't you being a little negative there? What ever happened to your favorite expression "Shut up and be optimistic!"?"

"No I am not. You know perfectly well that we didn't stand a chance against all those creeplings... and if we're captured then only the enforcers are left to handle things, and you might as read the whole city a death warrant because the don't stand a chance either... There is no room there to be optimistic."

T-Bone held up his huge paw and replied irritably. "Alright, alright I get the message, geez!" Razor then got a triumphant look on his face

Both Swat Kats lapsed into silence as they watched the huddled group of Enforcers. T-Bone covered his face with his paws as he moaned, "What is taking so long?"

"My uncle is wondering why you guys are right; he was kind of taken back when you actually had a tracker on Ms. Briggs."

T-Bone shot up straight to see Felina standing in front of them both, with her arms crossed across her chest, and some what of an amused look on her face at T-Bone's restlessness. "Well, your uncle should wake up and smell the coffee and donuts." T-Bone replied with his trademark grin on his face.

Razor smiled as he added "Yeah, literally."

"Your uncle is just going to have to learn that we two hotshots are actually better than him at those kinda things."

Felina continued to smile after T-Bone's comment.

She turned around to make sure no one was watching and then turned back to them. She reached inside her pocket and pulled out the four mangled pieces of what used to be a communicator and tossed them at T- Bone who caught them.

Both his and Razor's jaws dropped open slightly in shock after they saw what it was. "I guess that rumor that you guys had this super kat sixth sense was just a myth hu? Ms. Briggs actually called you guys whenever something happened."

"W where did you find this?" Razor asked quietly as took the crumpled pieces from T-Bone and turned the pieces over in his paw, examining them closely.

"In the wreckage of Callie's house. I picked them up before my Uncle saw them."

"Thanks." Razor said as he looked up and put the charred pieces into one of his pockets.

Felina gave a careless shrug. "No Big, but you guys have to promise me one thing."

T-Bone and Razor looked over at each other then looked over at a greatly amused Felina. T-Bone looked at her with suspicion written all over him as he growled. "And what's that?"

A huge smile spread across her face, fully knowing what she was about to ask wasn't going to be an easy task for them, especially for T-Bone. "That you guys act all nice and sweet to my Uncle until this whole masquerade is over."

Both Swat Kats frowned with displeasure and stared at Felina with unreadable expressions. "No." T-Bone finally replied shaking his head. "No Way! No way am I going to act nice to your Uncle. I'd rather go jump off a cliff than do that! Come on Razor, this is just some sort of sick joke."

As T-Bone turned, Felina shook her head. "Tsk Tsk, then I'm afraid that I'm going to have to tell my Uncle that the parts of your jet after close examination are some of the scrap pieces we take to the Junk yard after air shows and crashes, Oh, my my, those thrusters are a Pumadyne model, also sent to the junk yard after they proved to be lemons. Um you guys wouldn't happen to know the two mechanics that live in the junkyard would ya? Chance and Jake right? Cause if you do, then my Uncle will just have to question and torture them until..."

T-Bone stopped immediately and slowly turned around and glared at Felina, while Razor just looked at her in shock.

T-Bone slowly walked up to Felina, his arms crossed over his chest in a firm stansure. He walked up so Felina had to look up at T-Bone he stared down at her with his ears pressed flat against his helmet. "That's Blackmail you know."

Felina let out a rare giggle. "Yep, I know its blackmail."

Razor walked up alongside T-Bone and reasoned with a slight hesitation in his voice, "I'm sure it won't hurt T-Bone, for a couple hours and all."

"After all guys, its kind of for your own well being, I'm not so sure I can convince my Uncle to kill you later instead of the given moment, if you get what I'm saying."

T-Bone looked over at the still huddled group of Enforcers and muttered a little hesitantly. "I guess your right."

Felina's smile grew wider as she poked. "So does that mean your going to be nice to my Uncle and the rest of the Enforcers?"

T-Bone nodded miserably and mumbled. "Yes."

Felina smiled triumphantly. "Good, well be ready to go in a few more minutes." And with that she turned and walked off towards her Uncle.

T-Bone glared at Felina's retreating back and grumbled loud enough for Razor to hear. "Man, Sometimes I despise that she-kat."

Razor let out a short laugh. "Uhhu, sure you do."

T-Bone shot a warning look over at Razor. "Watch it Squirt!"

Razor muffled a laugh as Feral walked up, with the usual scowl on his face. "It seems you two hotshots were right about Ms. Briggs where abouts."

T-Bone and Razor both gave Feral a 'no kidding' look but both held their tongues, much to Feral's surprise. But little did he know, Felina who was behind him, looked at the two expectantly.

They both reluctantly put on huge grins. "Thank you Commander Sir, we are ready whenever you are." T-Bone replied painstakingly through gritted teeth.

Felina breathed in sharply, trying to hold in her laughter.

Feral looked both surprised and suspicious at the same time. "Now don't you two try to get on my good side, cause no matter what you do you never will!"

"ON YOUR GOOD SIDE! WHY WOULD WE WANT TO.... Um yes sir commander sir." T- Bone once again replied in a pained voice, his teeth grinding.

Feral raised his eyebrow so high that it nearly touched his hairline. "Right... let's be on our way then." He ordered to his enforcers, then turning sharply to the Swat Kats who were feeling absolutely miserable right now he growled and pointed a warning finger. "And no tricks you two or I'll shoot you down." T-Bone began to mutter under his breath, something about how unlikely that would happen.

Razor who saw Felina's warning look, gave T-Bone a swift kick, which silenced his friend immediately. "Yes sir, we understand sir." Razor cooed as he gave Feral what seemed to be a genuine angelic smile.

Feral snorted as he turned and stalked off towards his jet. As soon as he turned his back to them, T-Bone's painful smile drained off his face as his right eye started to twitch irritably, and Razor's prize winning smile turned into a mirror-cracking scowl.

Felina hid her mirth as she said in a sweet voice "Thank you for being so nice to my Uncle guys."

T-Bone clamped a paw over his twitching eye as he growled, "Don't mention it...ever." Felina smiled as she walked over to her jet, and only till her jet's cockpit was closed did she burst out laughing till tears were running down her cheeks.

T-Bone growled and cursed and jerked in anger like an insane kat as he turned towards the TurboKat with Razor following close behind. Once they were situated in their jet Razor looked down at his weapons panel with a pained expression as his mind battle with the decision of whether to kill or not to kill. "That is the question." He muttered out loud still staring the weapons panel.

T-Bone smiled slightly. "You're not the only one that's thinking that buddy."

"What a comfort." came the dull reply.

T-Bone grimaced as Feral's loud gruff voice boomed through the radio. "Come on people lets get a move on! We're burning daylight.. and that means you too Swat Kats."

Razor leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes as he repeated to himself quietly. "Must think happy thoughts, happy thoughts, happy thoughts."

T-Bone smirked at his partner's frustration. He lifted the TurboKat with ease and followed in pursuit of the other enforcer jets. "Finally we're on our way!" T-Bone mumbled.

"SWAT KATS get your tails up here and lead us to Miss. Briggs before I change my mind!" Both Swat Kats grimaced as Feral's booming voice screeched through their radio.

"Man Feral, not so loud my ears are ringing! Gee Wiz!" T-Bone replied as he led the TurboKat up to the very front of the jet formation.

Feral snickered to himself as he confindently took a sip of a cup of Dunkin Donuts coffee, clearly enjoying his new found authority of bossing the Swat Kats around.

A rookie pilot whose jet was right to Felina shook his head and commented with realizing that his radio was on. "Man, the Swat Kats must be pretty desperate if they're taking orders from the commander."

Felina chuckled to herself, as her uncle demanded, "Who said that! Reveal yourself!" But all the enforcers remained quiet but couldn't help but smile to themselves.

"You have no idea." Felina said smiling.
