A little reminder; Kat is a tomboy, not a lesbian. Like Lor from the Weekenders, Juno from...well...Juno or Jo from Famous 5 on the case.
They like boy stuff except for girls.
(I only said that in case any of you think Kat has a crush on Lexi. SHE DOESN'T!)
Tomboys are not lesbians! It's just a misunderstanding!
Oh, and if you want to know what martial art moves Kat used then look up on the internet.
Chapter 3: Super Spy to Super Normal to Super Hero
Where: Acmetropolis, Loonatics' HQ
When: 8 months after meteor crash
The six known Loonatics were savouring their rare free time: Ace Bunny was meditating in silence on his hovering cushion in the lounge room, barely noticing the glorious view of the city through the circular glass walls. Lexi Bunny was listening to her iPod 763 through her tall and super hearing ears at low volume (to not get a headache again) while laying down on the sofa booth in the lounge room with her short blonde hair being dragged down by gravity. Slam Tasmanian was in the kitchen spinning in a tornado back and forth from the fridge to the kitchen bench, creating the tallest (and most disgusting) sandwich ever known. Tech E. Coyote was in his beloved lab, using his green glowing magnetic energy with his eyes and hands beaming green to form new gadgets and vehicles...without being blown up again (hopefully). Rev Runner was on the treadmill in the training room going 221.186 023 62 miles per hour with his feet practically flamming into a blur and his eyes glowing red without showing pupils (like Tech in the lab). And Danger Duck...well...was just being Duck, he kept teleporting into all the rooms each loonatic was in, all within a orange and green flash...as if he was looking for something. What was odd the most was that Duck's black feathers were soaking wet and he was in his orange bath robe with his face stitched on the back.
Duck lastly teleported back into the lounge room, throwing the sofa's pillows around, trying to find something important to him.
"Eh...what's up, doc?" Ace's Brooklyn accent casually greeted, but annoyed with his eyes shut, he couldn't ignore Duck when he kept popping out of nowhere.
Duck rolled his eyes like it was obvious with a mild lisp in his words, "I'm trying to find my r...I mean...my thing. I can't take a bubble bath without it."
"I don't even know what 'it' is, Duck. I'm just glad you're wearing a robe." Lexi gratefully moaned and continued listening to her music.
"Good, cos' I'm not telling you." Duck firmly lifted his bill up high.
"Let me guess," Tech's smooth yet dog-like voice suddenly came in along with him, "It's your bathtub 'rubber ducky'."
"No!" Duck defensively reacted.
Tech didn't need to say another word to win the argument; he basically won with a smug 'really?' glare.
Duck couldn't take it anymore, "Alright! Fine. But his name isn't 'rubber ducky'; it's Danger Duck the Second, Bathtropolis's number one action hero."
Duck carried on with his searching for his precious toy, "Where? Where is it?"
In time before Duck could tear HQ apart, Slam came in his towering sandwich and Duck spotted in the middle of it was a black rubber duck wearing a small orange doll sized cape, squashed between a piece of lettace and...a mouldy corn dog.
Slam opened his mouth wide, about to lower the gigantic sandwich inside.
"No!" Duck gasped.
He teleported in a short distance to the sandwich and immediatly snatched the rubber duck out of the food tower right before Slam gobbled it up in one bite.
"Don't worry, you're safe now. At least you didn't become roasted duck from Slam's stomach acids," Duck whispered and then sniffed the mould and lettace covered toy, "Although, you do need a bath."
All of a sudden, Rev came whizzing in with his red beak blabbing away speedily...with none of the Loonatics understanding what he was saying, "Hi-guys-what's-going-on-here-I heard-a-lot-of-noise-from-downstairs-let-me-guess-Duck-lost-his-rubby-ducky-again-Duck-you're-always-losing-things-you-should-organise-your-stuff-like-I-do-I-do-it-by-placing-my-things-in-alphabetic-order-from-a-b-c-d-e-f-g-h-i-j-k-l-m-n-o-p-q-r-s-"
Tech grasped onto Rev's beak before he could go any further, "Rev, is there a reason you came down here?"
He gently let go and Rev fast talked three simple words, "Zadavia-needs-us."
As soon as they can, the Loonatics came down to the briefing room and round the table...although, it took a while longer since Duck got change out of his robe and into his orange and black suit (he didn't want Zadavia to see him with nothing on, but a robe). Within time, beams of rainbow light sprouted out of the middle of the table. In the light was a transparent woman with long blonde hair flowing up like if she was upside down underwater.
"Loonatics, I have a confession to make," Zadavia's echoed voice sighed.
"I knew it!" Duck exclaimed, "There was a cooler superhero costume for me! You just wanted to keep it to yourself."
"No, Duck," Zadavia powerfully commanded and continued on with the subject, "I didn't exactly gathered all the affected residents of the meteor crash,"
Slam blabbed in confusing grumbles.
Tech agreed, "Yeah, Slam's right. What does that suppose to mean?"
"There was one more affected by the meteor's energy. The problem was I couldn't able to find her," their supervisor went on.
"Yes!" Lexi cheered, "Finally, another girl."
"How come you couldn't find her?" Ace asked, curious why one of the most powerful beings couldn't even find one long lost Loonatic.
"I've searched for months, but there was no trace of her. I don't even know what she looks like, I want you all to try and find her," Zadavia carried on.
Duck was bored already, but he wanted to know who they were trying to find, "Do you know her name?"
They had no idea how rare the next two words Zadavia said were, "Katarina Vester."
"Alright, gang. Let's jet." Ace determindedly smiled.
And so, the Loonatics began the search for Katarina Vester, the long lost and unknown Loonatic. They all spread throughout the city with the Energy Trackers Tech invented to detect the cosmic energy that's exactly like the energy the Loonatics possess. Tech was on the east side of the city, wandering through the streets searching for Miss Vester. As well as the Energy Tracker, he brought with him his palm sized computer, searching for Katarina digitally by hacking into Federal files.
Hmm, thought Tech's genius brain; no files, no addresses, no phone numbers...not even school records. It's as if this 'Katarina Vester' doesn't exist.
Rev was searching the city from a bird's eye view high in the sky, flying with his flamming wings at top speed and his internal radar on while once in a while checking upon the energy tracker.
Rev yakked out loud, "Boy-this-guy-or-girl-I-should-say-is-harder-to-find-than-I-thought-it's-like-trying-to-find-a-needle-in-a-haystack-or-maybe-a-piece-of-hay-in-a-needlestack-but-why-would-anyone-want-to-go-inside-a-stack-of-needles..."
Okay, moving on: in the west side of the city Ace was checking every building nearby and no one goes by the name of 'Katarina Vester' or have the same energy as him.
Ace's thoughts echoed; I just don't get it. Maybe Zadavia was wrong, maybe Tech's gizmo isn't working...maybe I should stop asking questions and keep looking.
Slam and Lexi both checked the south side, they couldn't find a girl with supernatural powers anywhere, it was hopeless. Not even Lexi's super hearing picked up anyone using the missing Loonatic's name.
So much for having a girl team-mate, Lexi's brain sighed.
Pizza! Pizza! Pizza! PIZZA! Slam repeated over and over again.
By the time they checked every bit of Acmetropolis each Loonatic chosen, they met in the middle of the north side of the city.
"Any luck?" Ace asked, hoping his team at least found something.
"No Katarina on the south side, I even checked all the places a girl would go," Lexi answered sadly...Slam added a grumbled 'yuck' and his face turned green, overwhelmed by all the dresses and pink.
"And I checked all the places a boy would go, just in case she was a tomboy," Lexi added.
All the boys of the team (which was technically most of them) gawked at Lexi with confusion.
After she gave herself a head slap she explained, "A tomboy is a girl who acts like a boy and likes what boys like; such as not wearing skirts and make-up or playing 'manly' sports."
"The east side had no sign of meteor energy either, I checked cyberspace to see if there's any evidence of her. No files or records of Katarina Vester, she might as well not be real." Tech reported.
"From-up-in-the-sky-there-was-no-sign-of-someone-with-cosmic-energy-wandering-around-besides-you-guys-there-was-nothing-zero-nil-zilch-nought-null-aught-nada." Rev chattered rapidly.
"I found nothing too," Ace frowned until something popped into his mind, "Hey, where's Duck."
"Don't worry," said Lexi, "I heard him from over there."
Lexi pointed to the superhero costume shop across from the Loonatics as her eyes glowed pink without showing pupils and as bright pink light rings hovered around each long ear.
The team went inside the shop and saw Duck trying on a blue cape.
"Ooo, Egyptian cotton from the 23rd century when Earth was around. That'll show I'm the rare kind of awesome hero." Duck gasped and stroked the soft fabric.
Duck folded it up, brought it to the cashier counter and asked the bored cashier, "Excuse me, do you have this in orange and size 9."
"Duck." Ace said flatly from behind...which led Duck to screaming like a little duckling, before and after he saw the disapproved glares on his team-mates faces.
"Oh, hi guys. I was just...umm...getting a welcome gift for dear old Katarina, yes that's it." Duck unconvincingly lied.
Slam some excited yet perplexing grumbles.
"No," Duck sighed miserably, "I couldn't find her. That girl is like a needle in a haystack."
"There-goes-that-saying-again-why-would-anyone-want-to-find-a-needle-in-a-haystack-it's-just-as-bad-as-trying-to-find-a-hay-piece-in-a-needle-stack-but-I-don't-understand-why-anyone-would-want-to-do-both-whoever-took-that-saying-literally-must-be-covered-in-hay-or-if-he-did-the-opposite-he-must-be-bleeding-from-all-those-needles-then-again-it-might-just-feel-like-acupuncture-I-don't-understand-why-would-anyone-want-to-try-acupuncture-it-sounds-painful..."
Tech's large ears couldn't take Rev's constant chattering about hay and needles anymore, so he grasped Rev's beak again.
"Okay, Rev. We got it." Tech groused before he let go.
As the Loonatics headed out of the shop, Tech's heavy brain began thinking and suddenly remembered.
"You know," Tech grinned, revealing his fangs and gazed ahead to one large building, "There is one other building we haven't check out."
All the other Loonatics caught up with Tech's theory and followed his gaze with a smile.
Except for Duck, "No, no! Anything, but that!"
They were gazing at the wide silver building with the words 'Acmetropolis's Museum of Technology and Science from the ancient times in Earth to today in Acmetropolis'.
"Oh great! A museum about stuff nobody bothered to ask about. I already hear enough about that stuff from Tech everyday." Duck complained while the Loonatics paced through the halls of the museum, passing old tools such as the wheel and the microwave.
"Yes. I knew it, we're getting close. The Energy Tracker is picking up a signal of cosmic energy from the Nikola Tesla exhibit." Tech logically said as he watched the screen of his invention.
"Who the heck is Nikola Tesla?" Duck moaned, suddenly realised he said out loud and clasped his hand over his bill.
Too late, handsome. Duck's mind whined.
"Nikola-Tesla-was-a-brilliant-inventor-who-practically-saw-his-inventions-and-theories-in-visions-or-flashes-as-he-called-them-Tesla-was-forgotten-by-most-people-today-and-was-bitter-rivals-with-Thomas-Edison-because-of-their-argument-of-Direct-Current-and-Alternating-Current-also-known-as-the-War-of-the-Currents-but-the-good-news-was-he-won-because-Alternating-Current-was-stronger-brighter-and-less-dangerous-than-Direct-Current-He-invented-many-products-of-today's-and-history's-technology-that-most-people-thought-were-built-by-other-inventors-such-as-radio-fluorescent lighting-robots-spark plugs-electric arc lamp-x-ray device-bladeless turbines-wireless communication-laser technology-neon lights-remote controls-cellular communication-radar-and-of-course-the-Tesla Coil-demonstrating-Tesla's-theory-of-Alternating-Current." Rev swiftly explained it all in one breath.
"Aka: My role model." Tech beamed at the thought of how Tech followed in his footsteps.
Duck wasn't really interested in what either of them said, "Yawn, let's just find that Katarina chick and get out of this nerd cave."
The Loonatics went inside the Nikola Tesla exhibit; a humongous black dome-like room lit by neon lights, fluorescent lights and electric arc lamps, around the bottom edge were glass cases holding all of Nikola Tesla's original inventions.
"Wow, this Tesla doc really did his homework." Ace admitted as the Loonatics entered further into the room.
And there was one thing in the middle of the room inside a cage that actually made the mature Tech bark once enthusiastically like a happy puppy and ran towards it, "No Way! It's Nikola Tesla's original Tesla Coil. The exact inspirational invention his own hard worked on!"
"Yeah, now all you have to do to be even more of a dork is bow down to it repeatedly and say 'I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy'." Duck mocked, he badly mimicked Tech's voice and did some bowing during the last words.
"Quit it, Duck. With have to find Katarina." Lexi ordered.
"Oh right." Tech awkwardly coughed after he broke out of the trance of watching the tall and thick antenna-like machine sparking static electricity throughout the metal cage.
The Loonatics looked around with their Energy Trackers for the 7th loonatic; all they saw were school children on field trips, students from universities (especially Acme Institute) and an athletic girl cat about 14 with silky black fur all over her body, except around her mouth was mostly white fur. Her small nose was dark crimson, her pointy ears stood high like her razor sharp claws, her eyes had no sign of white; only bright yellow and her dark deep pupils were in the shape of thin diamonds, long black wild yet layered punk hair like her tail. She wore a black collar with metal spikes, a grey T-Shirt with sleeves ripped off, black jean with little rips, blue converse sneakers and a lose striped tie as she was trying to fix one of the fluorescent lights while on an old swing hanging from the ceiling set up there to help her get close to the lights.
"Technician!" a fat man in a purple suit smoking a cigar shouted at the cat.
The yell gave the cat such a fright she fell backwards off the swing...luckily her claws caught grip of the seat before anything painful happened.
"Can't you ever call me by my real name, not my occupation?" the cat's young yet suave and sly voice purred above.
The boss ignored the fact his technician was hanging 50 feet above the ground and demanded, "No! Now once you're done with that light, I need you to unblock toilet 13!"
"Aren't toilet problems the janitor's job?" she called back.
The bossy boss shrugged, "It's the janitor's day off and-"
The cat interrupted tiredly, "I know, I know. If the janitor's away then the technician takes over all of the janitor's responsibilities. Boy, we really need to take that out of the manual."
The boss grumbled loudly, "Just to your job!"
"Which is technically not unblocking toilets." the cat jokingly notified.
The boss's face grew as read as Rev's tail feathers and furiously bellowed loud enough to almost break the glass cases, "Don't you back sass me! Just do as I command!"
As the boss waddled away; the cat couldn't help, but to scoff, "Aye aye, captain."
The cat flung herself into a handstand with her claws, sprung herself up into a somersault, landed rear first onto the swing and continued fiddling with her metal tools, going as slow as she could so she wouldn't have to unblock the breakable and revolting toilet 13.
The Loonatics were out of luck after the commotion earlier, they did know the energy was coming from the Tesla room, but they just find where it was coming from. Before they could even think about giving up there was a big crash that led everyone to run away from Tesla's creations...except for the Loonatics and the cat. The cause of the crash was a short woman wearing purple dress, with pasty skin and a large head revealing veins.
"Mallory." Tech growled.
Mallory 'Mastermind' Casey, a revengeful yet genius criminal and one of the Loonatics' arch nemeses (especially Tech's) who can turn metal objects into powerful weapons.
"I thought you were locked up in the big house where you belong." Ace snarled.
"Oh that, you wouldn't believe how many metal spoons my cellmates collected. I figured you were here and now I'm finally going to get my revenge on you Loonatics and you irritating dog." Mastermind grimly smiled.
Filled with anger, Tech sprinted and sprung towards her with his eyes glowing green (always without pupils) and his paws filled with green magnetic energy.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you," Mastermind wickedly grinned and revealed a large silver gun-like device similar to a spoon, "I came prepared."
She activated her invention and shot a transparent beam that grabbed Tech and forced him to the wall.
"A little trick I picked up from Massive, gravity does have an effect on everyone. Including annoying dogs like you!" Mastermind manically laughed.
Ace tried to attack next by running with his eyes glowing yellow that each suddenly burst out a laser blast, Mastermind already triggered her machine's beam that had Ace's blast faded away and Ace pulled down to the floor.
"Time for a little girl verus girl!" Lexi said as she ran towards Mastermind while her eyes glowed pink and a pink light beam flashed between her ears to Mastermind...too late. Mastermind's device had hold of Lexi to the ceiling and her brain blast zapped away. Slam willing tried next by spinning in a tornado to Mastermind as his eyes glowed purple, the invisible force already had Slam...slammed to one wall. Rev rapidly ran around Mastermind faster than a million cheetahs with his eyes glowing red and had her floating inside a red tornado. Mastermind projected the clear beam at Rev and pushed his weight down to the floor.
"Well well well, it looks like it looks like it's up to the brave, brilliant and dashingly handsome Danger Duck to save the Loonatics from Miss Beach ball-head!" Duck declared melodramatically.
You would think during Duck's monologue he would be zapped, but no. Every time Mastermind tried to zap Duck to the floor, ceiling or wall he would teleport to short and safe distances while his eyes glowed orange. By the time he thought Mastermind was tired he threw a few flaming orange balls of energy, but this gave Mastermind the chance to blast his energy orbs way and zap Duck into the curved area of the ceiling.
"Oh great. My back is now a question mark." he grumbled.
"Tremendous! With all of you Loonatics in my grasp I can now have my revenge by simply touching Tesla's Coil and turn it into the most powerful weapon ever created to vaporise you into oblivion!" Mastermind evilly cackled and strutted to the giant electrifying machine...covered by the locked cage that made the coil out of reach.
"Darn, I need the combination to get to it," Mastermind mumbled.
She looked up and spotted the cat girl watching it all from above, the girl was thinking of how to stop Mastermind. The girl fell off the swing and landed on her feet near Mastermind by choice.
"Ah, an employee," Mastermind smiled as if all the pieces of her plan came together, "Tell me the combination or face the rath of Mastermind!"
"I'd rather not give you the combination." the cat grinned like a smart alec.
"What?" Mastermind screeched, "You do not fear me!"
The cat was still grinning, "Oh don't worry. You're about as scary as toilet 13."
"I am being compared to a loo?" Mastermind screamed even louder, "Fine you asked for it!"
The Loonatic were worrying more about the little girl than themselves (Well...Ace, Tech, Lexi, Rev and Slam were) but they had nothing to worry about.
Out of the blue, most of Tesla's inventions combined themselves together to form into buff adult sized metal men.
"Now will you give me the combination?" Mastermind said in a fake sweet tone.
The girl cat smiled and put herself into a strong stance, "No, I'll be fine. 8 months ago I was given a very shocking surprise."
The army of metal men surrounded her in a rush; the girl cat closed her eyes and opened them again. Her eyes were no longer yellow with diamond shaped pupils...they were glowing bright blue and her paws her glowing blue too with whitish blue electric sparks. She began to attack; her jumps, pounces and moves were stronger and higher than any expert...as if powers power it. She used many martial arts moves at each metal man, such as: TaeKwonDo Tornado Kick, TaeKwonDo Rear Horse Kick, Bokator Cup Jaran, Sambo leg sweep, Kung Fu Wire Fu Kick, Kung Fu Sanda take down, Muay Thai flying kick, Ninjutsu Ude Gatame, Ninjutsu Hamukai, and more.
Every time she did a move there were either a powerful whitish blue lightning strike or a strong visible electric shock...either way, most of metal men fell down. For the others all she had to do was glow blue energy around her to pounce up really and bounce off the walls, twisting with tumbling tricks exactly like a cat...only stronger, faster and longer. Every time she was in mid air she would zap a lightning bolt at each metal man, forcing them to fall down. Once all were down she landed perfectly on her feet without a stumble, facing one angry criminal mastermind.
"Told you I'll be fine." she smiled.
Mastermind screamed in fury, the sound of her found forced all of the fallen Tesla inventions to form into one giant gorilla-like metal man, she shot an invisible force from her device and plummeted the cat down onto her back on the floor, Mastermind and the metal gorilla stomped in front of her.
Mastermind made it clear to the cat, "Enough, little girl! I have all the power! I can make any weapon I want! So give me the combination or else my little friend will have to mash you like mash potato."
"Power? That's it." the girl cat whispered, she came up with plan B.
Mastermind and the Loonatics were baffled by what was happening to the girl cat, the gravity force wasn't pushing her down as electric sparks buzzed around her body.
"What are you doing?" Mastermind worriedly gasped at the time the cat wobbly got up.
"I command you to stay down." Mastermind tried scream, but it came out as a whimper. The gorilla was even scared.
The cat girl let out powerful electric lightning-like pulse waves through the building, buzzing all electric objects including the spoon device and the Tesla inventions gorilla. In short time there was total darkness.
"Ha! You think no light will stop me!" Mastermind chuckled and snapped her fingers...nothing happened.
Her spoon device turned back into a spoon, the gorilla's body parts fell on the floor as Tesla's inventions and the unnatural gravity forces were gone.
"What? What's happening?" Mastermind repeated tried to take command over the electric objects again with no luck.
The room became lit by the girl cat who had glowing electric sparks around her body providing blue light, it was all explained by her, "Well, one of the strange things you should now about is that I'm like a living EMP. The entire building's power has shut down for as long as I like, so now you have no power while in this building."
In seconds the security guards came in because of all the noise, figured it was the criminal and grabbed her by her wrists...taking her to the police.
"Who are you? You mangy cat!" Mastermind growled and struggled.
"The name's Vester...Katarina Vester. But I prefer Kat, its way less prissier." the cat smugly smiled as she won the battle.
The Loonatics were astonished they found who they were looking for at least, especially someone who saved their lives...but they were surprised to find out she was a 14 year old girl
Mastermind howled, "I'll get you Kat Vester! Even if it's the last thing I'll ever do!...And I'm still going to get you Tech E. Coyote!"
Once Mastermind was out of the room, Kat dusted her paws, "That takes care of that."
"Technician!" shouted a familiar and unpleasant voice...Kat's boss.
When he came in stomping like an elephant, Kat's sparks faded away and all the lights turned back on.
"Hi, Mr Fartson," Kat waved proudly, "You should know I saved the Tesla's-"
"SAVE IT?" Mr Fartson roared, "YOU BASICALLY DESTROYED IT! LOOK!"
Kat and the Loonatics looked around and saw the place was a mess...Tesla's inventions were scattered across the floor, the glass cases had shattered, there were lightning burnt marks in many areas and the walls imprints of each Loonatic.
"Oops." Kat beeped.
Mr Fartson screamed in Kat's face louder than ever before, "OOPS? OOPS IS ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY!"
"Umm...oopsy daisy." she shrugged.
The Loonatics and Kat though Mr Fartson's wig flew off when he hollered, "YOU'RE FIRED!"
Mr Fartson stomped away back to his office to do his yoga.
Kat blurted to herself in annoyance, "Sufferin' succotash! I saved one of the museum's prized possessions and in return I get fired...oh well, at least I now I can't unblock toilet 13."
Kat Vester without a job or a way to have a home wandered slowly out of the destroyed exhibit in sorrow, until she was stopped by the Loonatics.
"Wait," called Ace before she turned around, "We wanted to say...thank you."
"Don't mention, I'm just I did something with my powers from that meteor something that didn't involve changing light bulbs or charging museum wax robots. I have a sort of effect on electricity." Kat smiled, not smugly or mockingly...but kindly.
"How would you like to use your powers like you did before on a daily basis?" Lexi offered.
And the Loonatics explained everything.
"No way!" Kat gasped, "I'm a Loonatic. But how come Zadavia didn't gather me like you?"
"She had a bit of trouble finding you." Tech tried to put it delicately to someone he knows that knows almost as much about technology as him.
No surprise there, Kat secretly thought.
"So what do you, would like to join, doc?" Ace asked.
Kat thought about it for a moment, tried to make a pro and con list:
Pros:
She doesn't have to work at a crud job again.
She gets to use her new abilities and old abilities for something she loves to do.
She gets to have the kind of adventures she had before, but with friends.
There was only one con:
Keep her old life a secret from her own friends
It wouldn't be a hard think to do since she quit her old old job and there wouldn't be any S.I.D. agents barging into her new life anytime soon, it wasn't surprising when she said, "I am so in!"
The Loonatics cheered their mission was complete and that they've gotten an impressive member now joining...all the Loonatics, but one.
"No!" cried Duck, "No, no, no, no! She can not be one of us!"
"Why, Duck? I thought you were okay with the idea of bringing a long lost member." Lexi questioned, as confused as everybody else staring at Duck.
Duck crossly explained, "Yes, but that was before we saw that Katarina was a child! Kids have parents and parents do not like having their kids in danger, especially ones about being a super crime fighter, she would have to go back before bedtime-"
"First of all;" Kat interrupted Duck before he could go on with kid jokes, "It's not Katarina, it's simply Kat. And second of all you don't need to worry about me having parents telling me not to be a crime fighter because I have no parents. I was dropped off at an orphanage when I was a baby and... It's hard to explain, but it led me to having a small apartment with leaking pipes and a job that had me being yelled at for many hours."
Kat thought her lecture would at least have Duck to soften up about the idea of her being the 7th Loonatic...not at all, "That's even worse! It'll be just like baby sitting."
"Come-on-Duck-you-were-an-orphan-once-too-But-then-again-you-always-have-an-adopted-one-so-surely-you-know-how-it-feels-I'm-guessing-it-feels-lonely-isolated-abandoned-lost-remote-deserted-"
"Okay, I get it." Duck stopped Rev from saying anymore words meaning 'lonely', he looked up at Kat (even though Kat was young, she was still a little bit tall than Duck) and moaned, "Fine, you can come. But make yourself seem shorter, having a 14 year old taller than me makes look more like a sidekick than an awesome action hero."
"No promises." Kat grinned, letting the adventure begin.
