Hawk .. sorry … captain Kitty Hawk was beside himself with glee as he walked along the rows looking at all the kitties. Ianto walked sedately behind him not holding his hand like he would if it was a little boy. No…. the bodyguard does not hold hands and now and then pauses to look someone up and down as his hand rests on the little toy gun on his hip. Then motion his Taddy Citizen forward.

Hawk was enjoying himself immensely, those stopping to watch the little Black Panther stalk about all agreed that he was a darling. Then it happened, a shout went to that cat had got loose and Ianto barely had time to register it before his little boy was running like the hounds of hell were after him, his arms up as he yelled in a deep little voice for everyone to get down, he had this! Like it was all about to explode or something.

Ianto face palmed and then followed at a trot, knowing it was more than likely that by the time he got there Hawk would have the cat firmly in hand, this boy not just fast but accurate. Most of the cat catching in the village ws Captain Kitty Hawk's doing and for a pampered puss that barely ever ran further than a doorway to a food bowl it was no contest really.

Hawk walked along with the fluffy cat in his arms looking for it's owner calling out in his low superhero voice "citizen, come fetch your moggy!"

Giggling started as a woman meekly approached to claim the cat and as he handed it over Hawk admonished her for letting it go in the first place "You know is Kats have high strings madam. Please monitor your beast!"

"Thank you er…. "

"Captain Kitty Hawk" Ianto called out as he finally got to the huddle, "You are supposed to be protecting me"

"I know Taddy Citizen but all fuzzers are my people too ya know. Can't have a fuzzer in danger. I must excess the problem" Hawk stood with his feet apart, hands on his hips as he argued with his Tad "anyway. Some back up you were, if it had been an ambush I would have been dog food!"

"OI!" Ianto laughed along with everyone else "Firstly, I am not backup to my own bodyguard and secondly … you would never get caught in an ambush. You are Captain Kitty Hawk. You would have smelt it!"

"True" the little boy conceded "I most likely would have. Yeah. I am a Superhero after all. OK. Fair dos."

"OK." Let us continue our meander though Cat Town?"

"Yes Taddy Citizen … this way. I smell food!"

Everyone Awwwwwed as the little boy stalked toward the food court and Ianto politely nodded to them as he followed his leader… ah… bodyguard.
