Part 008
The Collar

"You think I'm a fool"

"Yes" Rex tossed the new dog collar on the ground before Jay. The bird gave his a dirty look. "You said dog collar"

"I did" Jay turned to the window "A year ago there arrived a visitor, a dog, he was adopted a few months ago" Jay turned and now looked at Rex "Bring me his collar and I'll tell you were you can find her"

"Fine" Rex said "Where can i find this dog?"

Several Hours Later
8:59 am. Fryday.
Burtonburger Residence

"I think" Kat started. The cat and dog alien duo was in Kat's HQ. Kat stood before his large monitor typing something on his keyboard "I know why Rex is here"

"So he's not here just for your head?" Hunter said looking around "Nice place"

"Thanks" Kat said and then went back to business "No, There is another alien on this planet. She was close to Rex when we were all in the Acadamy"

"How many of you are here?"

"Three, I guess" the cat stopped typing and walked over to a green screen that was the Alien's sonar "I was the first but my failures probably sent another"

"Great. So who is this cat then?"

"Well her name is..."

The alarm went off. The room were the two were in flashed red. "Whats going on?" Hunter said walking toward the cat.

"Someone is here" Kat said. He walked over to a metal case and opened it. He pulled out a laser rifle. "Since you came into the house, I have been working on a security system that would detect you and warn me when someone entered the room"

"Kat!" The two looked at each other "Dog! Show yourself"

"Rex?"

"Yes" Kat said "Lets go say hello"

The two left the HQ. They came flying out of the main opening. Kat had constructed his HQ in a large cat bed/play thing. They landed on the bed and jumped off. Before them stood a dark purple cat.

"Really" Rex said looking at Hunter. Both cats in the room were both taller then he was. He started marching forward.

"Lets take this outside" Kat said to Hunter. The dog nodded

Hunter looked toward the window. It was open, they could use it to force the cat out but then again, maybe that was how the cat got in.

The two charged Rex. The darker coloured cat dodged Kat's attack. He turned to Hunter. The dog punched him in the face. He pulled together a combo - left, right, left, right, uppercut - Rex smacked against the wall. Hunter and Kat grabbed his arms. "Out the window" Kat said. Millie's room was on the second floor, just saying.

Several seconds later the cat went out the window. He was followed by Kat and Hunter. They landed on the grass lawn at the back. Rex rolled over and got up. "Fools! You could have killed me"

"Whatever" Hunter said unmoved

"What do you want Rex?"

"The dog's collar" Rex pointed to the dog "Give me your collar and I'll be gone"

"Look genius" Hunter said. He pointed to his neck "I don't have a collar"

Rex frowned "Damn bird tricked me..." he mumbled. The cat turned and ran off. Kat fired off several round from his rifle but it missed.

When the cat was gone Hunter turned to Kat. "What was that all about?"

"I don't know"

The two animals made their way back into the house.

Much Later That Night...

The house was dead silent. The two children and their old man was asleep. The cat and the dog were the only two awake. The two made their way out of the house via an open window is Coop's room. They made their way around the house until they were at the front. They walked over to the sidewalk.

"You want to do what?" Kat asked

"I need more fire power" Hunter said "The next door neighbours dog is a sleeper agent"

"Growler? No way"

"Yip" Hunter turned to the house "The report said that when he came here he had a lot of weapons and equipment"

"Wait" Hunter turned to Kat "Why not get new weapons and equipment from your Command. I mean why take them from Growler"

"It will take a while for my stuff to get here" Hunter said. He turned back to the house "With all the new development going on my Raygun isn't going to help me in the long run"

"I guess" Kat frowned "And you would probably want my help"

"Yes. Help me with this and i'll help you with your Fishy Frisky Bits problem"

Without hesitation "Deal"
