Chapter Three: Bow and Arrow
Chance got up at 5:00 am just like he always does. Chance got dressed and looked over at Felina who still alseep and smiled to himself. He went downstairs and walked into the kitchen. He walked over to the coffee maker and started to make himself a pot of coffee. He thought about what he and Felina had talked about the other day. He could not believe that she know that they were the Swat Kats. Then he thought about the letter. He had written that just in case he and Jake had to run. He wanted Felina to know how he felt about her. Chance and Jake had a plan to escape if Feral ever found out about them. After his coffee was done Chance walked into the garage and started to work on an Enforcer truck.
Jake woke up at seven and got dressed for the day. He knew that Chance was up and working on the Enforcer truck. It was do in two days. He walked past Chance's room and looked in and saw the Lieutenant still asleep. Jake walked downstairs into the kitchen and got himself a cup of coffee. He was going to skip breakfast today. He was not that hungry, he would eat later. He walked into the garage and saw Chance hard at work.
Felina woke up eight. She got dress and walked downstairs in the kitchen. She got a cup of coffee and walked into the garage. She saw Chance and Jake hard at work. She walked over and stood next to the truck. She was about to say something when Jake looked over and yelled out. Felina looked at him with an odd look.
"Sorry I didn't know that you were standing there. You scared the hell out of me." Jake said grabbing his chest. Felina giggled and Chance laughed.
"A little jumping today Jake?" Chance asked. Jake looked over at him and narrowed his eyes at him. Which made Chance laugh again.
"That is not funny Chance." He said. Chance smiled at him and looked at Felina. She smiled back at him.
It was getting close to lunchtime and the three had been talking and laughing all morning. Chance notices that Jake was getting quiet. Chance knew what that meant.
"Hey bubby how about you go and eat something and I'll finish up here." Jake nodded his head and went to the kitchen. Felina looked at Chance with a worried look.
"What is wrong with him?" She asked
"Jake is a diabetic." Chance answered her. Felina looked over toward the door that led into the waiting room.
Chance was putting up some tools and Felina was helping him. When they hear a sound of a glass or a dish breaking. Chance and Felina ran into the kitchen and saw Jake on the floor. Chance ran over and picked up his best friends head. He looked up at Felina and said.
"Go to the tow truck and open the clove box and get the insulin pen." Felina jumped up and ran to the tow truck. She opened the clove box and found an insulin pen and grabbed it. She ran back into the kitchen and handed it over to Chance. Chance placed the pen on Jake's leg and pushed the button.
"Come on Jake wake up." Chance shook him. Jake opened his eyes and looked up at Chance. Chance smiled and put the pen down.
"Felina could you get Jake some juice?"He asked her. She nodded her head.
"Come on Jake set up the best you can." Jake sat up somewhat but was still laying on Chance. Felina walked back over with juice in paw. She handed it over to Chance. Chance held it up to Jake's month and told him to drink it. Jake shook his head no.
"Come on Jake drink the damn juice." Chance yelled a little.
"Chance." Felina called out his name.
"You have to yell at him to get him to drink or eat when he is like this." Chance explained. Jake pushed the juice away which made it spill a little.
"Damn it Jake, drink the damn juice." Chance said with his jaw clenched. Felina looked at Chance with a worried look.
"Should I call a doctor or something?" She asked.
"No he'll do it. It's just making him do it is the problem. He'll be fine if HE DRINKS THE JUICE!" Chance yelled.
Jake finally gave in and started to drink the juice that Chance was holding in front of his month. When Jake started to drink, Chance let out a breath. Felina did the same. Jake drank two glasses full of juice. After that Chance helped Jake to his feet and Chance and Felina took Jake to his room. They laid him down on the his bed. Chance covered Jake up and smiled to himself.
"He'll be out of it for a few days." Chance said as the two walked out of Jake's room.
The two walked back down to the garage. Chance walked over to a TV and turned it on. Felina could not believe what was on the TV.
"Is that Jake?" She asked. Sure enough there was Jake on the TV. Chance looked at the she-kat and smiled.
"Yea I put a camera in his room. That way I can watch him and get to him if he needs me." Chance shot the hood to the Enforcer truck. Felina smiled at Chance.
"What?" Chance asked her.
"Nothing" She giggled. 'He really cares for Jake. That is very sweet of him.' She thought to herself.
It was about dinnertime. Chance and Felina were talking as Chance worked. Every now and then Chance would look at the TV to check on Jake. Every time he would do this Felina would smile an unseen smile. Chance was getting a tool when the alarm in his pocket went off. He pulled out the device and pushed the button.
"Yes Ms. Briggs?" Chance said in his T-Bone voice. Felina smiled a big smile. She kind of loved it when he did that.
"T-Bone, Dark Kat is at Puma-Dyne stealing weapons information. Me and Anne Gora are here at Puma-Dyne. We can see him. You two need to hurry!" Callie said in one breath.
"Okay I'll be there in a few." Chance said looking at Felina.
"Wait what about Razor?" Callie asked.
"He's out of commission. Don't worry Ms. Briggs I'll take care of it." Chance pushed the button again ending the call.
"I'll go with you." Felina said getting up from her set.
"No I need you here to watch after Jake." Chance said placing his paws on her shoulders.
"Okay just be careful." She said looking into his blue eyes.
Chance ran over to the hatch and opened it. He climbed down the latter and ran over to his locker. Chance opened it and put on his G-suit. He stopped and looked down. At the bottom of the locker and saw his bow and quiver full of arrows. He grabbed the bow and quiver and ran to the jet. He got in and fired up the jet.
Felina watched as Chance flew out into the night. She smiled to herself and walked over to the TV and looked to see if Jake was alright. Once she saw that he was, she began to clean up some.
-At Puma-Dyne-
Chance had landed the jet and was finding a way into the building. Once he had found a way in. He pulled back his bow and with an arrow in place. He walked around to see if he could see Dark Kat or Callie and Anne. He walked into a large room and saw Callie, Anne, and Johnny Anne's camera guy. They were all behind a table that was turned over. Callie looked over and saw T-Bone.
"T-Bone behind you!" She yelled. Chance turned just in time to miss Dark Kat's back hand.
"Well well just one of you today huh." Dark Kat said stepping in the light.
"What am I not good enough for ya?" Chance said in a smart ass way. Dark Kat smiled and moved his arm out.
"Get him!"
Just then three masked kats step out of the shadows. One was holding a gun, one was holding up his fist ready to fight. The last one was also holding a gun. Chance let go of the string and the arrow flew throw the air and hit the end of the gun to where you could not fire it.
"Are you getting this Johnny?" Anne asked him.
"Yea Anne." He answered her.
They saw T-Bone grad another arrow and fire it. The arrow opened and it was a rope tying arrow. The roped tied the one kat up and he fell to the floor. T-Bone grad another arrow and was about to fire when a shot was fired from the gun that still worked. The bullet hit him in the upper arm. Callie watch as T-Bone fired the arrow and it hit the kat in the chest. Once on the ground she could see that the arrow was a tranquilizer arrow. The last kat ran toward Chance and went to hit him. Chance ducked and hit the kat in the gut with his left paw that the bow was in.
Callie, Anne and Johnny watch T-Bone fight. Felina and Jake were setting in the waiting room watching the fight. Jake had woken up and went downstairs to find his best friend and the Lieutenant. When he walked into the waiting room in time to see Chance take down the first kat. Jake could not believe what he was seeing. He had never seen Chance fight this way before. 'He is amazing.' Jake thought to himself.
Commander Feral was watching the fight with his month opening. He could not believe what he was seeing. He knew from that moment that Felina would be safe. But he knew bring him in was going to be a pain.
-Back with Chance-
Chance moved back as the kat swag his arm to hit him. Chance turned and kick the kat in the stomach. The kat fell onto one knee. The kat lunged forward toward Chance. T-Bone moved out of the way and kneed the kat in the gut. The kat's month dropped and blood and saliva ran down his chin. Chance put his knee down and the kat got all fours.
"Get up and kill him!" Dark Kat yelled out. Chance pulled the out three tranquilizer arrows and fired them at Dark Kat. Dark Kat did not have time to stop them. They hit him too fast. They watched as Dark Kat hit the ground hard. The kat at Chance's feet got up and went to hit him in the back of the head. Chance moved out of the way and took a smaller tranquilizer arrow and hit the kat in the neck. The kat fell to the ground. T-Bone turned and looked at the three kats behind the table.
"You alright?" He asked
"Yes we are fine. T-Bone that was amazing!" Callie said walking toward him.
"Thanks but I better go. You know before Feral gets here." T-Bone said
"Okay tell Razor I said hi."
"Well do." Chance said as he ran off.
-At the Garage-
Chance walked over to his locker and opened it. He put his bow and quiver down in the bottom of the locker. Chance changed out of his G-suit back into his overalls. But before he put on his shirt, he got out the bullet and stitched up his arm the best he could. Chance pulled on his shirt and overall top and zipped it. He walked over the latter and started to climb. When he popped his head out of the hatch he saw Felina and Jake stand there looking at him.
"What?" He asked as he shot the hatch and moved the rug back over it.
"Where did you learn to fight like that?" Jake asked. Chance said nothing he just smiled. Just then the three heard someone pull up to the garage. The three walked over to see who it was. It was the Commander. All three of their eyes went wide as they looked at each other. Feral got out and walked into the garage.
"Uncle what are you doing here?"
"To see how you were doing and to take him in." Feral pointed at Chance.
"What? Why are you going to take me in?" Chance asked.
"Don't play dumb. I know that was you fighting." Feral said moving to get his pawcuffs.
"If it was, How would you know?" Chance asked.
"Because you are bleeding in the same spot that the Swat Kat got hit." Chance looked at his arm and saw what the Commander was talking about. He was bleeding the blood had bleed throw both of his shirt and the coveralls.
"Your coming with me Furlong." Feral moved to arrest him. When Felina stepped in the way.
"Felina move." Feral commanded.
"No Uncle. You cannot arrest him." She said standing in front of Chance.
"Felina I have to do my job."
"Yes you do but they have saved this city more times than we can count, and you and myself as well." Felina stated. Chance could not believe what he was seeing. Felina was protecting him. Jake looked at Feral and then back at Felina.
"Felina!" Feral yelled out.
"No Uncle!" She yelled at him. Chance placed a paw on her shoulder. Felina turned to look at him.
"It's okay Felina." He said with a smile.
"No it's not. I love you and I will not let this happen." All three toms were floored at the statement.
"Love him! You just met him a day ago." Feral stated.
"I have always loved him. I fell in love with him the first time I saw him." Said turning back to look at her uncle. Chance's face kind of fell the first time they had met he was T-Bone not Chance. Feral looked at his niece who had tears in his eyes. 'She must really love him. I have never seen her cry before.' He thought to himself. Feral let out a breath.
"Felina I have to."
"No!" She yelled out. Tears started to run down her face. Feral looked away and sighed.
"Fine I will not arrest him." The three looked at the Commander. Felina turned and hugged Chance. Chance hugged her back. Feral put his pawcuffs away.
"But…" They all looked at him.
"If they miss up again I'll have to come back for both of them." Feral said.
"Thank Uncle." Felina hugged her uncle. He hugged her back.
After Feral had left and Felina had fixed Chance's arm, the three ate dinner and talked for a while. Jake still wanted to know how Chance learned to fight like that. All Chance did was smile at him. It was late and the three decided to go to bed. Felina and Chance were in their room. Felina could tell that something was bothering Chance.
"Chance what's wrong?" Felina asked.
"You said that you fell for me when you first saw me. I was T-Bone then not Chance. So how could you love me?" Chance asked while setting on the bed. Felina walked over and sat beside him.
"Because you are sweet, loving, caring, brave, a hell of a pilot and fighter, and handsome and wonderful tom I know. Well you and Jake." She giggled. Chance looked at her and smile.
"I love you." She said leading in to kiss him. Their lips met and they kiss a sweet and loving kiss. They broke the kiss and Chance looked at Felina and said.
"I love you too." He said with a smile.
They got ready for bed and got into bed. Chance was facing the door and so was Felina. Felina closed her eyes and then opened them when she felt Chance's arm wrap around her and pull her in close to his chest. Felina smiled and closed her eyes and went to sleep. Chance closed his eyes as well and smile to himself. He finally has the right she-kat in his life.
