Rita lunged at Conrad, knocking him to the floor while her mother chomped on Strix's right leg, managing to get a good grip that she caused it to bleed profusely and making the doctor scream out in pain, then causing him even more pain by biting his crotch.
While Strix was briefly incapacitated, Conrad managed to throw Rita off of him and got back up on his feet, feeling the bleeding scratches on his neck left by the fox's claws.
" Oohh...You've done it now, Fox! " He growled as he grabbed a nearby scalpel on the surgical tray, getting ready to stab the little vixen to finally rid himself of her trouble.
Dodging his attacks, Rita made the deranged man chase her around to room until she could think of a plan to get rid of him and assist her mother with fighting Professor Strix and freeing Hugo from his cloning experiments.
She quickly ran into one of the rooms and hid under a desk next to the door, making sure to keep herself quiet to use her plan to good effect, her eyes following Cupmann's movements as he searched around the room for her, looking under a dresser and making sure to check under the bed.
Rita took this opportunity and snuck out the open doorway and closing the door behind her, jumping onto the doorknob and locking the door, effectively trapping Conrad in the room.
Chuckling to herself on her stroke of genius, Rita darted off to help her mother fend off Strix, leaving the former film producer banging on the door and swearing obscenities at her.
She entered the room just in time to see Strix violently kick her mother across the room, her body slamming into the cabinets, knocking some of their doors off on impact and the wind out of her.
" MOM! " Rita rushed over and helped her mother to her feet, only for her to squished under her mother's weight, making her feel like a little kit again...for all the wrong reasons.
" M-m-mom...Mom you're squishing me! " She strained.
" My precious little Rita... " Rita's Mother said deliriously, the blunt trauma clearly being the cause of it.
" Just lie down there, Mom. I'll handle it from here! " Rita told her mother as she gently lied her head down to continue her fight against Professor Strix, her anger understandably reaching an all time high. " Alright Egghead...Let's play! " She growled lowly as she engaged in a stare down with the professor, the two of them going in clockwise circles around the room.
Hugo tried his best to free himself from his bonds to no avail, cursing up a storm at his predicament and forced to watch helplessly as his girlfriend was fighting alone to save him.
Calming himself down and quickly thinking up a new solution and placing his thumb into his palm, he gently pulled his right hand through the strap and got it free, smiling at his success and doing the same tactic with his left hand.
While Hugo was busy with his escape, Rita and Professor Strix charged at eachother to attack, with the fox avoiding every swipe the man made with his spare scalpel, his aggression getting more and more apparent on his face.
" Okay, you dumb vulpine...you're very persistent, I"ll give you that, but I've just had about enough of your tomfoolery! " He huffed in frustration, grabbing a fire extinguisher to try to smash Rita's skull in, who dodged the attack just in time and latched onto his left leg, pressing her jaws tightly together to bite into it, drawing blood.
" Arrggghhh! " Strix screamed out in pain as he fell over and clutched his leg.
Rita ran over to Hugo, licking his face and hugging him, relived that he was safe.
" Come on, Hugo. Let's got get mom and get off of this damn boat! " She told him as she pushed Hugo's feet through the straps to get them free.
The two of them ran back to Rita's Mother to help her to get back on her feet, her head still pounding from the professor's brutal attack and struggling to stay upright without falling over on either Hugo or her daughter, as they searched for a way off of the ship.
They made it up to the deck of the ship after hoisting Rita's Mother up the stairs leading to it, her weight not making it easy for the both of them in the process.
" Ohh...my head! " She groan painfully. " Just...Leave...M-m-me Here, go on without me! "
" No, We'll all getting off this ship! " Hugo and Rita both declined the choice to leave the older fox behind, spotting the lifeboat being held by the boat crane, the perfect vehicle for their escape.
As they boarded the boat and started gnawing through the ropes to free it, Strix and Conrad caught up with them and tried to halt the escape by trying to grab at Hugo, each earning a bite on their hands from an irate Rita, who covered for him as he tried to gnaw the rope, only to crack one of his teeth.
" Ow! " he stifled a cry of pain.
Conrad jumped onto the boat to grab at Rita to throw her off, only for her to headbutt him and knock him off the boat, into the ocean instead.
his pocketknife falling out of his pocket, which the fox quickly grabbed and tossed to Hugo, who after awhile figuring on how to open it, pressed the small button to release the sharp blade, startling himself when it nearly sliced his hand open.
He started to cut the ropes when he heard Rita cry out his name in terror, she was being held by Strix as he pointed a gun against her head.
" Drop the knife and come with me, And I'll release your girl, Hugo..." The professor demanded, his hand trembling and his mind completely lost. " Do it now or she dies! "
Hugo dropped the pocketknife and slowly stepped onto the ship's deck to ensure Rita's safety, hoping Strix will put the gun away and let her go.
he glanced over to the boat to see it empty, wondering where Rita's Mother was...
Only to receive his answer when she jumped out and attacked Strix from behind, biting into his neck and digging her claws into his shoulders, making him drop both the gun and Rita at the same time.
Rita ran over to Hugo and hugged him, the jungle animal relieved that she was safe, then watched as her mother wrestled with the professor over threatening her daughter, the term " Mamabear " being an overstatement with her.
Her mother was about to go in for the kill to end this once and for all, holding him by his bleeding neck with her jaws around it, until Rita stopped her by vixen-calling out to her.
" He's not worth it, mom...just let him be! " She pleaded.
Reluctantly, her mother released her grip on Strix and grabbed his tie in order to face her to have a little chat:
" You got off lucky, Strix...be thankful. you come after my daughter and son-in-law ever again, I'll end you..." She warned. " Now, do we understand each other? " She smiled with satisfaction when Strix nodded in understanding, clearly shocked that he just had an conversation with a vengeful fox just now and he passed out from the bloodloss.
" Good boy. " Rita's Mother said as she activated the crane and hopped into the boat with her daughter and Hugo, ready to head back home and rest up after the day the three of them just had, pulling them into a group hug.
" That was brilliant, Mom...thanks for saving me by the way. " Rita thanked her.
" Anything you, Rita..." Her mother said appreciatively. " And Hugo?...Thank you for looking after her all this time, You're a real hero! "
The Jungle animal in question blushed bashfully and held the older vixen's paws. " that mean's alot coming from you. " he said jokingly as he stared into her eyes.
" Careful Hugo, anymore flirting and you'll have to marry both of us! " Rita laughed along with her mother while Hugo's face turned bright red from the accusation.
" I'd must say, Rita. He is quite handsome! " Her mother snickered playfully while licked Hugo's face, making him blush even harder as the two vixens surrounded him in hugs and kisses.
The three companions drifted back to Copenhagen as the sun disappeared behind the city's skyline, bringing in a peaceful night.
