Chapter 3

What's Goin' Down?

Chloe and Leonardo slowly made their way to April's. Leo was in no hurry, and neither was Chloe. She clung to his arm like a child, and murmured, "Leo, I'm scared."

Leo put his arm around her," Chloe, don't worry. We'll deal with whatever happens, I promise you."

As they reached April's apartment from the basement entrance, Leo heard April's frantic voice.

He tensed, and Chloe drew her rope and grappling hook as she responded," Something's wrong!"

They cautiously entered the kitchen. April was on the phone, talking to the police," This ISN'T a joke! Yes…okay, thank you."

She hung up and turned, jumping slightly as she saw them.

Leo asked, "What happened?"

"Chloe…Leo…the foot kidnapped Chloe's mom, brother and friends." April told them, looking scared and ashamed at the same time.

Chloe's eyes widened and she screamed," NO!! No! We have to rescue them! Before something terrible happens!!!"

Leo turned to her, "Chloe, do you remember where they held you captive?"

Chloe blanched, "Yes! I do!"

Leo's jaw tightened, "We'll find them. Tonight!"

Alex groaned…and then screamed.

"Oh please, that is so old!" Baxter grumbled.

Alex was strapped to a table, and she yelled," What the hell?!"

Baxter responded," You are going to be the second human recorded to be mutated…congratulations."

Alex snarled," You helped kidnap Chloe, didn't you?!"

Baxter chuckled," Kidnap, no, mutate, yes."

Alex's eyes widened," You MUTATED HER?! Why?!"

"You'll find out." Baxter smiled evilly as he tapped more commands into the computer. She started struggling as she was lowered into a containment field.

A green gas filled the containment field.

The redhead threw her head back as her screams rocketed through the room.

Tristan shivered as he woke up slowly, adjusting to the room.

He looked at his reflection in the metallic wall and screamed," HOLY CRAP! WHAT KIND OF SICK JOKE IS THIS??!?!"

He was covered with grey fur…and he had a plumy wolf's tail.

His face was like a wolf's face, and his grey eyes were large and more ghostly then ever in his grey face.

He had paw-like hands with sharp claws and elongated feet.

He snarled in a bestial manner, and he whirled as the door opened…

WHAM!

He rushed out, snarling, he smacked the ninja unconscious and ran for all he was worth, dropping to all fours, he crashed through a window and raced down the road, howling in rage…

Charis moaned as she woke up…and she screamed.

A cat-like woman lay beside her.

And a fox-like woman came from behind her," Charis? Are you okay?!"

Charis stammered," What?! Alex?!?!"

"Yeah, it's me…they mutated us." Alex grumbled as she looked at her black hands, the black fading to red.

Her body was covered by red fur, and her face was now pointed like a fox's, her springy hair looking cute, along with her sleek, straight fur. She had a beautiful fox's tail, black, elongate feet and claws.

"Charis, you're a mutant too…don't freak out, I think you look pretty.'

Charis looked down at herself and blinked," What the hell am I?"

Her feet and hands were white, but her arms were dark-bronze red, white shooting through the bronze, picking out rounded rectangular patches… like a sea turtle…

She had only two finger and two toes…and her bosom was no longer rounded, but flat, covered by a yellow armoring.

She also noted she was naked ad blushed.

"I think you're like a sea-turtle…but it looks really pretty, believe me." Alex responded, "I think that's Tana, sleeping over there."

They looked at the cat girl, who was dark furred, with a sleep tail and a thick mane of jet-black hair.

Charis swallowed, "What's going to happen to us?"

Alex swallowed," I don't know, but we stick together. No matter what."

Tana yawned and muttered," I had the weirdest dream…"

"Tana, don't freak, it wasn't a dream." Alex waited for the scream.

Tana looked at them, looked at herself and yelled," AWESOME!!! This is SOOOO cool! I've always WANTED to be a cat!"

She started to sing," Everybody wants ta be a cat! Cause the cat's the only cat, who knows where's it at!"

Charis sighed," Will wonders never cease…"

Alex had to correct," More like insanity."

Tana frowned and complained,"Wha-at?!"

Insanity indeed...i wish I was part cat too...maybe that means I'M insane. what do you think?

Ahem.
