Unexpected Ally 4 the SWAT Kats: part 2 Summary: Continuation of Part 1. Dark Kat tells Amy the truth about the death of her mother, Annabella Briggs. In the cold storage room of the tuna factory, Amelia Briggs and Felina Feral were being gagged 2 death and were mere minutes away from a slow, painful, and poisionus death from black widow spiders. Amy struggled to get free from the gags in her, but Dark Kat's kreeplings tied up the ropes to tight for her to remove. Suddenly, she had an idea. Using her elbows and knees, she managed 2 push herself up2 the top of the storage room. She was about 2 make another move, when Felina frantically shook her head no. "She's right," she thought. "If I try to stand, I might lose my balance and fall." She then turned herself to the other side and started 2 pound on the storage room door. As she was about to bang her feet again, she heard several kreeplings attacking and guns going off. Afterwards, there was silence. They guessed that some showed up and Dark Kat and his kreeplings killed him or her. Still, she knew that if they didn't do something, it would be their deaths in a few seconds. She banged frantically over and over again to try 2 pry the door open. After a few seconds of hesitation, she heard some1 push some sort of heavy piece of metal away from something. After a few more seconds, the mystery kats opened the door and shinged a light over the helpless female enfocers. They then shot the black-widows that were 3 inches away from Felina's face. They immedietely reconized their savoir's faces as the SWAT Kats: T-bone and Razor. Razor quickly untied the gag around Amy's mouth and she drastically fought to catch her breath. "You ok, Detective?" "Y...yeah..I think...so. Just need a few moments to...catch my...breath..." "That's a relief," said a relieved Razor. He then felt her shoulders to see if she was injured in any part of her body or not. "How come your all wet?" "Briggs and I swam all the way here. That was about...2 hours..," Felina answered. "Two hours?! No wonder you feel so cold." T-bone remarked as he untied Felina. "You kats're gonna hear a lot of this from everyone, so might as well hear it from me 1rst," Amy responded. "Uhh...that would be?" Razor asked nervously. Amy's cold, stern look went to a warm and friendly smile. "Thank you." Razor lightly blushed and removed the rest of the bonds around her athletic body. As the SWAT Kats helped the Lutenit and Sergeant out of the cargo room, a giant hook swan their way. The SWAT Kats pushed the female defenders out of harm's way. "Missed. How nimble of me...." "Ahhh CRUD!!!! How can he be up so fast?!" T-bone asked with rage. "Dark Kat...u're under arrest!" Amy remarked. She reached to grab one of her gun, but finds it missing. "Looking for this, Detective Briggs?" Dark Kat asked slyly as he removed a weapon from his cloak. "Crud! He knows I can't fight him without my 9mm! That sleeze-bag!" "Shame u 2 ladies have to stay out of the fun," T-bone teased. T-bone and Razor fired at Dark Kat while Felina and Amy watched, both envious that they had to stay out of the fight. Amy suddenly came up with a brilliant idea. Spotting a rope around, she grabed it and made a small loop within it, big enough 4 a kat's head to fit through. Dark Kat grabbed the SWAT Kats by the throats and hurled them against the walls, badly injuring their heads. "GEEEZ! How much pain does this kat gotta put us through?!" Razor asked in rage. "Believe me, buddy; you don't want to know." "Now I'll be rid of you pesky SWAT Kats once and for all!" Cried out Dark Kat. However, before Dark Kat could make his move, Amy manged to throw the loop around Dark Kat's throat and started tugging on him tightly. He desperetly tried to break free from her force, but Amy proved to be stronger then she looked. Felina then grabbed the weapons from him and tossed Amy her 9mm blaster. She then shot a few rounds which hit Dark Kat's shoulder real badly. He turned around and saw Amy's face. The bangs of her strawberry-blonde hair was in her face, and the area around her eyes were scarred. Her shoulders were badly scarred, and her leg was bleeding. She pointed her 9mm blaster at his head. But intead of cowarding like most criminals would when the cops had the drop on them, he only smiled and chuckled evily. "Hmmm...heh heh heh...well done, Sergeant Briggs. Perhaps I under-estimated you. You're very strong...just like your mother before she died so many years ago." "Huh? You...you knew my mother?!" "KNEW her? Sergeant, I was the that KILLED her." "But...but that can't be! She...she died in a car crash when I was a little kitten!" "That was a lie, Briggs. The police department at your home-town only told you and your brothers that so they wouldn't fear me. Ah, I still remember this; u didn't even have a father. They only people that raised you were your 5 older brothers Sydney, Jason, Billy, Zach, and Tommy. To the point, though. "During the late 60's, your mother was a secret agent for the FBI. On 1 of her missons during the early 70's, she was out to capture me and bring me into custody. She found me at my secret base at Antarctica. She ruined my plans to conquer the entire planet, so for that, I assinated her. Now you know the truth, Sergeant." The shock about the truth of her mother's death sent tears of anger and sadness down her soft cheeks. Anger that Dark Kat murdered her mother along and the police department lied about her death, and sadness that the fact was she would never see her mover again. "Geez....I feel sorry for that girl" T-bone whispered to Razor. With that speech, Dark Kat sent T-bone, Razor, and Felina hurling against the wall, making them both appear dead. "T-BONE! RAZOR! FELINA!!! Now THEY'RE dead! This can't be; it's all a nightmare!" "You only wish that, Briggs. But don't worry; you'll be seeing your mother soon...in the after-life!" He then grabbed her by the neck and started choking her to death. He then turned his walking stick into a dealy spear. "Finally! I shall have my revenge on the Briggs family for GOOD!!!! Now to do what I should've done 20 years ago!" Amy shut her eyes tight, more tears coming down her cheeks, waiting for her death to come. As Dark Kat was about to stick the spear into Amy's left bosum, ending her life, a fist appeared out of the darkness and stabbed him long enough to rescue Amy. "Th...thanks, Razor," Amy said gratefully as she quickly wiped away her tears in hope that he didn't see her crying. "But I could've handled it on my own." "Oh, yeah. You sure proved that to us. Sergeant, listen to me on this one. You've been really brave in your life, going through all this. Having no parents, only having your older male siblings to take care of you. But you've been too brave for too long. It's time you started depending on others now and then." "Well...I'll try. Thanks for saving my life." Felina and T-bone had just regained conscience then. "Man...what a headache. I feel as though my brain was pulled out." Felina responded as she was easing the pain off her head. "Ditto here, Lutenit. What just happened, Razor?" "Believe me, T-bone; you don't want to know." Moments later the enforcers arrived and took Dark Kat into custody. He then growled when he went passed Amy. "You won't get away with this, Amelia Briggs. I will have my revenge. You will die, I'll make sure of that; just like I made sure that your mother died." Amy just pretended that he hadn't spoke, but inside, she felt scared and angry at Dark Kat for murdering the only parent who stayed with her after she was born. Commander Feral then stared down at Amy. "What was THAT all about, Sergeant." "I wish I could tell you, sir. However, it's to personal." "Enforcers shouldn't be so secretive, Sergeant. In fact, you're no longer fit to be in that position." "WHAT?!" T-bone exclaimed. "You're going to fire her like you fired Jake Clawson and Chance Furlong?!" Felina asked in total shock. Amy just remained calm, allowing Feral to take away her Enforcer badge. He then gave her a brand new one. It was made of pure silver and shiny like the stars that glittered in the night. On it, was a label that said 'Captain.' "Captain, sir? You...you mean I'm...I'm...PROMOTED?!" "You earned it, Briggs. Most enforcers spend their days off at the theaters or at their homes; you used it to stop a massive take-over of our beloved city. MEN!" "Yessir!!" Every one of Feral's enforcers shouted as they saluted. "Meet our newest enforcer captain, Amelia Briggs. We can all learn a lot from her. Take note, men; she'll now be our new 3rd-in-command." "This...this' such an honor, sir. Thank you! I promise you, sir, I'll be the best enforcer captain that you ever had! I won't let you down!" "I know you won't, Ser...err, Captain. Report for duty next Monday morning!" "SIR! YES SIR!" They then did the military salute and everyone left the Tuna Factory. The next day, Jake was reading the paper, looking over the article on how Amy, Felina, and the SWAT Kats saved MegaKat City from destruction. It was sunset, but it looked completely dark due to the rain clouds covering the sky. It then began to pour, and the cold and bitter wind made it's enterance. "I now know most of Amy's life, but I still don't know why she ran inside when I was about to kiss her?" "Maybe she's not interested in going out with auto-mechanics that were once enforcers, Jake." "Then why'd she agree to out with me the other night to pay for the repairs on the motorcycle in the 1rst place?" "Don't ask me; I'm no detective." Suddenly, Jake saw a glimpse of his hot crush walking on the path near the Salvage Yard. She was in a white shirt that ended half-way at her stomach, with blue skin-tight jeans with holes in the knee area, parts of her thighs, and claves. She also had white tennis shoes. Over her white shirt, she wore a brown jacket that said "China Kat" on the black. The sleeves were black and she had a small blue back-pack around her right arm. Jake ran up to her. "Amy!" he kept calling out to her. "Jake! Uhh....listen, about the other night..." "In a minute. I read about you in the paper. It said that you single-handedly captured the crime-lord known as Dark Kat; congradulations!" "Gee, Jake...thanks. Listen, about the other night...well, this' why I did what did..." She then hestitated a little bit, took a huge breath, and told Jake the entire story. The sky was then pitch black and rain was even harder then before. After she told him, he had a look of shock on his face, but now he understanded completely. "So, due to the actions of Mike Mouser, you were afraid to let another guy into your life, afraid that the same thing would happen again?" "I know it sounds stupid, Jake, but...I didn't want to be hurt again. One he-kat cheating and hurting me behind my back is enough in my life." "I didn't say it was stupid, Amy, and I understand completely. But you have to understand that not all men are like that. I'm not like that. I can prove it to you that I'm nothing like Mike Mouser, and that I love you madly, Amelia Briggs." With that, he kissed her deeply. After a couple of minutes, he released his lips from hers. Amy blushed incredibly and was caught off-guard for once in her life. "I...I've never been kissed like THAT in a long, LONG time. I forgot what it felt..." But Amy couldn't finish, because Jake kissed her again. He placed his arms around her and kissed her over and over and over until she started kissing him back. She flung her arms around his neck, kissing each other several times. She then stopped for a couple of seconds to catch her breath. She lightly placed her head on Jake's shoulder while he ran his fingers through her hair, carressing her body around his. "I never thought a relationship...." "Please, Amelia...don't speak unless you abselutely have to. I want to enjoy this moment while we can, because like all good times, they must end..." "You mean...the realtionship?" "I meant this moment, Amelia; the kissing moment." He then held her hand and gripped it tightly that she couldn't let go, ut loosely so that he wouldn't be hurting her fragile yet firm hand. They then kissed again, this time it was long, deep, and passionate kiss, refusing to let each other go, for the thought of having to. Even through the cold and stormy night, their relationship brought sunlight and warmth between them, knowing that not even an event in the past can separate the happy love-birds. The End-I'm sorry it took so long to bring you part 2, dear readers. I had a hard time, due to parental controls, and school and stuff. I hope you all enjoyed it, and I'll do everything I can to send you my next masterpiece. Once again, I apologize for the delay.
