"Talking"

'Thoughts'

I want to thank Ulyferal for being my beta-reader and giving me Feral's female name. Also I will be adding a few characters of my own so if you want to borrow them you will have to ask first! Disclaimer: I don't own the SWAT Kats they belong to Hanna-Barbera!

The winds blew heavily across a huge building situated on an island in the center of Megakat Bay. Here the worst criminals of Megakat City were incarcerated. It's a dismal, cold place especially at night. In one of the many cells, a brown furred she-kat with blond hair sat calmly on her bunk and seemed to be waiting for something. Totally relaxed, she closed her eyes and began to hum softly to herself.

As if on cue, a bomb went off somewhere in the prison sending the guards running, locking down the cells before trying to find out what had happened. In the midst of this ordered chaos, a she-kat guard walked calmly down the cell block as if checking the security of the prisoners. She stopped at the waiting she-kat's cell.

"Hello, Lieutenant Rains," the prisoner said pleased to see the guard.

"Commander Turmoil," her lieutenant acknowledged her leader briskly.

"Is everything ready?"

"Yes, ma'am. The boat is ready and will take us to the ship."

Turmoil stood up as her lieutenant opened the cell. They pretended they were guard and prisoner until they reached the guard's restroom where the lieutenant had hidden some guard clothing. Turmoil quickly switched her clothes, stuffing the prison garb into one of the stalls.

The lieutenant peeked out the door carefully before allowing her Commander to leave the restroom then the two of them walked briskly down the cellblock. With all the excitement still going on, the lieutenant was able to get them through the multiple security doors and to the outside with minimum interference.

Looking around carefully as they made for the boat dock, the lieutenant sighed in relief when they succeeded in reaching the boat she had tied to the dock earlier without raising the alarm. She allowed Turmoil to climb in ahead of her as she untied the boat then jumped in herself. Taking the controls, she quickly started the motors, put it into forward motion and raced away from the prison at full speed.

As they moved toward the open water, Turmoil changed once again, this time into her commander's uniform. Feeling more like herself, Turmoil went to stand near her lieutenant and watched the dark water spray by them as they headed for shore.

"We will be ready to take off immediately as soon as we arrive at the ship, Commander," the lieutenant told her.

"Excellent. We will attack tomorrow!" Turmoil gloated

"But Commander, I thought we would be leaving the city as soon as possible so that you wouldn't be arrested again?" Lieutenant Rains objected.

"Not until I have my revenge on that two-timing tom kat, T-Bone. He will pay for what he did to me," Turmoil snapped, her tone brooking no argument.

"Understood, Commander!" Lieutenant Rains said reluctantly, staying silent for the rest of the trip.

Megakat Salvage Yard...afternoon...

Chance and Jake had opened their garage early, as they did every morning, and worked until noon.
As was his habit, the tiger tom dropped onto the worn couch and flicked on the TV. Jake retrieved the morning paper he had left in the kitchen when they started work and brought it to the living room. He was skimming the front page when he gasped, eyes widening.

"Chance you've got to see this!" He said urgently walking up to his partner.

"Later, Jake. Scaredy Kat is on." Chance said distractedly not taking his eyes off his favorite show.

"But Chance, it's about Turmoil. She escaped last night." Jake said shoving the paper in front of his friend's nose.

Sighing in annoyance, Chance took a moment to look at the morning paper. He couldn't really bring himself to focus on the article but knew Jake would read it to him anyway.

"So?" Chance said carelessly, shrugging his shoulders and returning his attention to his cartoon.

"So?! Chance! Turmoil swore she'd get revenge for what you did to her. Now that she's escaped, she going to be gunning for T-Bone. We have to be extra careful when we head out on patrol or on a call." Jake told his partner warningly.

"Fine, then we'll worry about it then. Now can we stop talking about her?" The tiger tom asked irritably.

Jake sighed, took a seat next to Chance and looked at him thoughtfully, "You're still thinking about Ursula aren't you?"

Chance groaned and gave up any effort to watch his show and looked at his partner as he responded reluctantly, "That easy to tell?"

Jake nodded his head, "Yeah a bit. Chance, I've seen you go after she-kats before but never like this. You're practically obsessed. You really like her don't you?"

"I'm afraid it's much more than like, Jake. I think I may be falling for her. I'm just not sure. It's so hard to know for sure with all the mixed signals Ursula sends me whenever we're together," Chance sighed unhappily as he turned off the TV, his show was over anyway.

"I can't say I blame her. She doesn't remember who she is or if she already has someone or not. That alone can make a person confused," Jake said quietly.

"I know, but what should I do? She's told me to stay away from her but I just can"t seem to bring myself to," Chance said in frustration.

"Normally, I'd say you should respect her wishes but since you feel so compelled to be with her, your only option is to tell her your feelings and see if the two of you can come up with something that will allow you to see each other without pressing her so much to make a commitment. You really need to be patient, Chance. She's not in a good position to be making a decision on this," Jake advised his best friend.

"You're right, buddy. I should call Ursula right now and see if she'll talk to me about this," Chance said anxiously, getting up to head for the phone.

But he never got the chance, when their alarm sounded off. Reversing direction, Chance made for the hidden trap door with Jake on his heels. Quickly dressed, they jumped into the Turbokat and prepared for takeoff.

"Ready, buddy?"T-Bone asked through his radio.

"Roger, T-Bone. Be extra alert buddy! This could be a trap by Turmoil," Razor cautioned him.

"Don't worry, Razor. I can handle anything that she-kat can throw at me." T-Bone said arrogantly as he took the jet out of the hangar.

"I hope so, T-Bone." Razor said worriedly.

The alarm was from Megakat International Airport. As they flew close to the perimeter of the airport they were immediately set upon by some familiar fighter jets.

"It's Turmoil! How'd the heck did she manage to get this many pilots so fast?" T-Bone growled angrily as he pulled the jet out of the path of laser fire from an oncoming fighter.

"I told you we needed to be careful," Razor snapped as he prepared to fire on their enemies. "Let's see how they handle this...it worked last time."

The flashbulb missiles opened up and released a bright light that blinded the group of pilots headed for them. Unable to see they crashed into each other and fell out of the sky. This took out at least five pilots but still left some fifteen jets still in the sky.

"Hey, T-Bone looks like the Enforcers are here." Razor announced as he spotted their distinctive signal on his monitors.

"Late as usual. I bet it's only Felina's but not Steel?" T-Bone snorted.

"No bet!" Razor snorted back.

The enforcers began to pick off the rest of Turmoil's pilots freeing the SWAT Kats to try and disarm and bring down her ship.

T-Bone gritted his teeth not wanting to say anything about Steel while focusing on the pilots. He felt guilty about what had happened to the former commander of the enforcers, Ulysses Feral. He really wished they had been able to save him sooner. He might not have liked Feral but he could admit, the big tom never let his troops do something he wouldn't do. He truly cared for his enforcers unlike that insufferable Steele. Besides that, Feral was a good pilot and excellent marksman. Felina was good but still lacked experience. It felt odd to be actually missing Feral. He realized he had respected the skills and leadership of the annoying Commander and missed those traits now.

"T-Bone, look out!" Razor shouted, interrupting T-Bone's momentary introspection.

T-Bone barely moved out of the way in time to prevent the jet from being hit by a powerful beam from the air ship. Razor checked his monitors to examine the beam's composition.

"T-Bone, it's the vertigo beam alright but she's apparently upgraded it. No telling what it's capable of now. Try to avoid it. We already know what it was like before," Razor warned his partner in concern.

"Roger that, Razor. We better take out Turmoil fast then," T-Bone agreed as he weaved an avoidance pattern around the beam trying to get close enough for Razor to take it out.

Turmoil watched as T-Bone skillfully avoided the beam with ease. Hissing, Turmoil signaled her lieutenant to stop firing the vertigo beam until they could get a good lock on the weaving Turbokat.

As the Turbokat managed to get closer, they were startled when Turmoil had ceased firing at them. It felt as if she was waiting for something. Razor's eyes widened as he suddenly realized what Turmoil was wanting for.

"It a trap!" Razor yelled but his warning was too late.

At that precise moment, Turmoil gave the signal to fire. The vertigo beam hit the Turbokat dead on. Turmoil crowed in delight as the pilot lost control and the jet began to fall. She had him at last.

"Engage tractor beam. Bring them in," Turmoil snapped out to her crew."And use the vertical beam on the enforcers. She smiled in pleasure as enforcer jets began to fall out of the sky."

As the Turbokat was caught in the tractor beam, T-Bone managed to come to groggy consciousness to discover they were being pulled toward Turmoil's ship. 'Not again!' T-Bone thought in disgust. Once again, he hit the ejector button and sent Razor away from the Turbokat.

"Good luck, buddy. I'm counting on you," T-Bone muttered before passing out again.

This time Turmoil had seen Razor be ejected and ordered her crew to move the ship quickly out of range before Razor regained consciousness and found them.

Just as before, the cold air woke the dizzy SWAT Kat. 'Deja vu!' Razor thought sourly as he slapped his oxygen mask on. He quickly looked around as he engaged his rockets on the seat. He was shocked to discover that Turmoil's ship was no where to be seen. 'Oh this isn't good. She's learned from her prior mistakes.' Razor thought worriedly. 'Crud, hold on buddy, I'll get you out somehow but first I'm going to need some help.' There was only one kat he knew that would have the capabilities to help him. He headed back to their hangar as fast as he could.

On the airship heading out of the city...

T-Bone woke up squinting as blinding light shone in his eyes. He could make out someone standing in front of him. It took a bit for his vision to clear so that he see who it was though he had a pretty good idea.

"Turmoil!" T-Bone growled trying to reach out but found his paws chain to the ship's wall.

"Hello, my traitorous tom kat. It has been a while hasn't it?" Turmoil smirked coldly at the helpless and furious SWAT Kat.

"What do you want?" T-Bone asked flatly though he already knew the answer.

"Why, T-Bone the answer is simple. To have my revenge!" Turmoil said raking her claws across his chest hard enough to draw blood.

T-Bone grit his teeth against the sudden pain not wanting to give her the satisfaction of hearing him cry out. It was then that he realized he had been stripped to the waist. His G-suit was hanging past his waist and his t-shit had been ripped from his body.

"When I'm done with you, you'll wish you never betrayed me." Turmoil growled.

SWAT Kats secret hangar...

Razor swooped into the hangar and landed the seat to one side of where the Turbokat would have been parked. Releasing his seatbelt, he quickly made for the enforcer radio they kept. He transmitted over an open channel hoping Valkyrie was listening.

"Valkyrie, this is Razor! I need your help. T-Bone has been captured by Turmoil. I'll meet you at the Megakat Mines. Please help me!" Razor broadcasted urgently. He repeated his message two more times before turning off the radio and heading for his cyclotron.

Within minutes, he was racing through town toward the mines. He prayed Valkyrie would be there.

Professor's Hackle's lab...

Professor Hackle was just finishing repairs to the cloaking system for the jet and suit in his lab when Razor's plea came over the enforcer radio he kept on a shelf nearby.

"Oh my! I must tell the Commander at once," he said in concern placing the system aside and heading into his home then out to the backyard.

Feral panted a bit as she finished her daily work out. She grabbed a towel to wipe the sweat off her face and when she pulled it away she saw the Professor hurrying toward her. Her brows raised in concern...something was up.

"What's wrong?" She asked as soon as he reached her.

"I just heard a call over the enforcer radio from Razor. He's calling for your help," Hackle quickly relayed.

"My help? Why does he need my help?" She asked in disbelief.

"He needs your assistance to rescue T-Bone. Apparently Turmoil has captured him," He told her.

Feral stood there in stunned surprise. It must be really bad for Razor to be calling for help. Before his change, he wouldn't think twice about letting the SWAT Kat just hang though he would have been trying to capture Turmoil himself regardless of where the SWAT Kats were. However, things had changed a lot for him. He couldn't just ignore the call and besides he owed Razor for repairing the motorcycle.

"Right, okay. Where do I meet him?" Feral said moving toward the house.

"Razor wants you to meet him at the Megakat Mines. Take the jet," Hackle told her. She just nodded and made for the lab where it was parked. The Professor helped her get into her suit then reattached the repaired cloaking system to it.

"There is just one thing more I want you to do before leaving. The cloaking system is repaired for the jet as well and I need you to reinstall it," Hackle told her handing her the device. Following his directions, she quickly put it in and was soon winging her way to the mines.

Razor waited anxiously at the Megakat Mines hoping Valkyrie would show up and soon. He could not take Turmoil down on his own not with the deadly forces she had now. Razor paced up and down as time dragged on. Every second spent waiting could mean more pain or possible death for his partner. Just when Razor was beginning to believe that Valkyrie wouldn't be coming, the sound of a jet approaching had Razor looking up.

Seeing Razor waiting near the mine entrance, Feral quickly set the jet down a little distance away. She popped the canopy and jumped out. Razor walked toward her as she strode to him. They met in between their vehicles.

"So Turmoil has your partner. Do you know where she can be found?" She asked without preamble knowing time was running out.

"No! But I figured your more advanced scanners should be able to find her from her last known location," Razor said grimly. "What's even better, is your jet can cloak and allow us to get close enough to rescue him. That vertigo beam is something to avoid at all costs."

"Sounds like a plan. My jet is only a one seater. You could sit in my lap?" She said and was glad he couldn't see her smirk at his sudden blush at the suggestion. "Or you can travel in the bomb bay area," she added in amusement.

"The bomb bay would be fine," he said relieved. "Let's get going and thanks for helping me," Razor said gratefully. She just nodded and turned back to her jet followed by the cinnamon tom. She opened the bay and he crawled in.

They were soon in the air. She engaged the cloak and asked for the coordinates of Turmoil's last known location from Razor over their radios. Fifteen minutes later she picked up the signature of a very large ship that could only be Turmoil's heading away from the city.

Aboard Turmoil's ship...

While waiting for rescue, T-Bone was the recipient of Turmoil's rage. She had whipped , clawed him some more and slammed a fist in his face. He could taste the coppery flavor of blood in his mouth. He was panting heavily and tried to ignore the pain coursing through him. He could feel the blood running from the many scratches and his back burned from the whip. As a final indignity, she had used electrodes on him. His body still twitched a bit from them. He'd been tossed in this lightless cell an hour ago and he'd yet been able to get to his feet.

'Razor, what's taking you so long?' He thought desperately.

Suddenly, the door to his cell opened and his eyes were blinded by the light from outside it. Turmoil stood there, an evil smile gracing her lips. T-Bone wasn't able to see her as his eyes were still trying to adjust. He felt paws grabbing him and lifting him to his feet. Apparently, Turmoil intended to continue her torture.

"Not again," T-Bone groaned softly as he was dragged out of his cell.

Back in the air...

It only took Feral minutes to catch up to the bigger ship. She approached cautiously and found a place to land her jet without causing any alarm. As she prepared to leave her jet she called to her passenger.

"We're here! You ready Razor?" She asked through her radio.

"You bet I am," Razor growled firmly, ready to save his friend. "I'll stop Turmoil while you find T-Bone."

"No way. I'll stop Turmoil and you find T-Bone. I'll have Turmoil focused on me and me alone," Feral snapped in disagreement.

"Are you nuts? You..."

"I'm better armed than you. I'm the better choice for distracting Turmoil. No more discussion. Get ready to leave. Remember, I can't be seen unless I want to be." She reminded him, preparing to exit the jet.

Razor took a deep breath and slowly let it out, "Okay, fine. I'll look for T-Bone. Just be careful, Valkyrie."

"You too, Razor."

They quietly snuck up to the entrance. Feral slipped in first then signaled Razor that it was safe since she couldn't be seen but he could. They quickly ran across the hangar floor and climbed up some stairs leading up to the main part of the ship. Reaching the top they split up.

Keeping to the shadows, Razor looked in every room he came across hoping to find T-Bone in one of them. His luck ran out when he reached a cross section and started down it.

"Hold it right there!"Came the barked command.

Razor stopped and turned around to see one of Turmoil guards running up. Cursing his luck, He raised his paws over his head.

"Don't move, SWAT Kat!" A powerful looking tabby she-kat warned him.

"Of course! I wouldn't want to disobey orders!" He smirked. As soon as she slowed down as she approached him, he whirled around and ran keeping his body in a low crouch thwarting her first shot at him. He disappeared around a corner before she could fire again. He could hear her running to catch up to him.

He quickly found a hiding place and waited while the guard, now accompanied by another, came racing by and kept running down the corridor. Once they were out of sight, Razor continued his search.

Valkyrie was having some trouble herself. Trying to look for Turmoil's main control room was like trying to look for a needle in a hay stack. 'Where is that control room?' Feral thought getting really irritated.

Finally, as she moved into yet another corridor, she came upon two guards in front of a heavy door. 'This has got to be it,'She thought in relief.

Moving swiftly, she shot both guards with her paralyzer needles. They never had a chance to cry out. She picked them up and deposited them in a nearby empty closet. She hurried back to the door and slowly opened it. Her luck was with her, no one was in this part of the room.

As she looked around, she spotted T-Bone chained to a wall. She quickly moved to his side and was immediately shocked and angry. T-Bone looked like shredded meat. Blood ran down countless claw marks and what looked like a whip. He had a bruised lip. His G-suit was down below his hips. She may not have liked T-Bone much but the arrogant tom didn't deserve this kind of treatment.

She leaned close and whispered, "T-Bone, can you hear me?"

"W-what? Valkyrie? H-how?" He gasped, voice thick and slurred from pain.

"Razor, he called me asking for help."

"Oh. Good. So tired."

Once Feral had removed the chains holding the tom to the wall, she caught him as he slumped forward. Very carefully, she pulled up his G-suit and helped him pull it back on. He hissed in pain as the suit rubbed against his wounds but he zipped it up anyway. Gently putting his left arm over her shoulder and her arm around his waist she helped him leave the room.

"Where's Razor?" T-Bone asked thickly

"Looking for you. But this changes thing a bit. How do you feel?" She asked him as she moved them down an empty corridor.

"Like road kill."

"Well, look on the bright side."

"What bright side?"

"They were kind enough to save me the trauma of seeing you naked."

T-Bone puffed out his chest a bit in indignation, Valkyrie had insulted his male pride.

"Ya know, a lot of she-kats would love to see me naked," he said offended.

"I'm not like a lot of she-kats." Valkyrie snorted back.

'Tell me about it.' T-Bone thought wishing, not for the first time, he could see her without the suit..

Meanwhile Razor's luck had gone from bad to worse. As he was going around yet another corner when he came face to face with Turmoil returning to her control center. He used the element of surprise to get the drop on her with his glovatrix.

"Well, if isn't the other SWAT Kat. Razor, correct?" Turmoil purred viciously.

"Where's T-Bone?" Razor snarled, not taking his eyes off her.

"As if I'd tell you!" She snorted derisively, "Just one word from me and your partner will be no more" She warned him grinning evilly.

Razor froze at Turmoil words, he couldn't risk hurting T-Bone. With regret Razor slowly brought his arm down. Turmoil smiled at him making Razor feel sick. Just then a one of Turmoil's she-kats came running up.

"Turmoil! T-Bone has escaped!" She reported.

"What?! Impossible! How could he escape!?" Turmoil snarled angrily.

T-Bone and Valkyrie had just come around the corner when they spotted Turmoil and Razor with some of Turmoil's guards. He whispered to her to disable the ship while he distracted Turmoil. Valkyrie didn't like leaving him as weak as he was but knew it was necessary. Leaning T-Bone against the wall so that he could use it to stand, she quickly slipped away.

Razor's eyes widened when he saw his partner appear down the hall slowly moving toward them using the wall to support himself. He was shocked at T-Bone's condition. His G-suit was bloody and his face was a mess.

"Looking for me!" Came a familiar drawl that made Turmoil whirl around. She gaped at him in angry surprise.

"T-Bone! But how did you escape?" Turmoil asked sharply. Razor used her distraction to run to his partner's side.

"I had a little help." T-Bone said nonchalantly doing his best to ignore the pain. Razor helped him stand and looked around to see how they would get out of this tight spot.

"How you feeling?" Razor whispered looking him over quickly.

"I'll live. Valkyrie should be taking care of the ship about now."T-Bone muttered back.

Right on cue, multiple explosions were felt throughout the ship. The floor shook hard beneath them causing T-Bone's legs to collapse under him. Razor held onto him as Turmoil roared out orders while racing for her control center. She was furious that yet another air ship was being shot out from under her. She didn't bother to concern herself with the SWAT Kats.

"I believe that's our signal to leave," Razor said grunting a bit as he pulled T-Bone back to his feet and wrapped an arm around his waist.

"Right, lead the way Razor." T-Bone agreed as he placed an arm across his partner's back.

Going as fast as T-Bone was able, Razor retraced his steps and got them down to the hangar where the Turbokat had been parked. As they spotted their jet and made for it they were joined by Valkyrie coming from another area in the hangar. Once they were together, she quickly handed them something.

"What is it?" Razor asked taking the item.

"It a cloaking system. It will hide the Turbokat from Turmoil's scanners allowing you to get away." She told him. She had lent him her unit from her suit.

"Radical! I'll install it right way," Razor said enthusiastically.

"See you in the air!" She said then ran to her own jet outside the hangar.

Razor helped T-Bone into the pilot seat then jumped into his own. He took a few minutes to install the device then activated it.

"Here's hoping it's working or this will be a short trip," he said grimly. "Whenever you're ready T-Bone."

T-Bone started the jet and quickly taxied out of the hangar. No one fired at them as he shot up into the air then circled the crippled air ship insuring it was going down.

"They're abandoning ship," Razor observed, spotting the many blips on his screens.

"Yeah, but where's Turmoil?" T-Bone said tightly.

"Perhaps she had her own escape ship?" Valkyrie called over the radio. She had been monitoring their radio since take off.

"It's possible since she had one before," Razor agreed.

"Razor, better get the mega magnet ready," T-Bone warned him as they searched the sky for Turmoil. The huge air ship was fortunately going down toward an empty field so no one would be harmed by its crash though many homes would be shaken a bit.

"Way head of you, partner," Razor said engaging the huge magnet.

Feral used her more advanced scanners to search the escaping ships for Turmoil. Finally, she spotted one ship moving faster than all the others. She switched on her x-ray scanner and saw it was indeed, Turmoil.

"T-Bone, Razor, there! She's in the escape ship moving faster than the rest and heading west!" Valkyrie called to them.

"I'm on it." T-Bone responded as he turned the Turbokat in the indicated direction and pursued the small ship. The cloaking system was obviously working because Turmoil didn't veer from her course as they approached.

"On three, Razor." T-Bone warned as he closed in on the fleeing ship.

"Copy that, T-Bone," Razor said tightly.

All three kats counted down as they swooped down and arrived just above her ship just as they reached three. At that second, Razor released the magnet and caught Turmoil's ship in one swift move.

"Nice catch, Razor!" Valkyrie cheered him as she flew on their right side.

"Thanks Valkyrie. Now we'll just hand Turmoil over to the enforcers and we'll be done," Razor sighed in relief already thinking ahead to taking care of T-Bone's injuries.

"Hey, Valkyrie is there any chance you could let us keep the cloaking system? It sure came in handy." T-Bone said amazed at the system.

"Sorry, guys, but you're going to have to come up with it on your own," she said in amusement.

Once Turmoil was in the hands of the enforcers, Razor told T-Bone to head for Megakat Mines where Valkyrie would be waiting for them. T-Bone landed the Turbokat a short distance from Valkyrie's jet.

Razor removed the cloaking device then jumped down to the ground. Valkyrie had walked up to to their jet and was waiting to receive the device from Razor. He reluctantly put it in her paws. She bid them both farewell and made for her jet. They watched as she took off.

Sighing, Razor went to get his cyclotron and loaded it aboard the Turbokat as T-Bone waited patiently for him. Soon they were making their way home. T-Bone wasn't looking forward to Razor treating his wounds. It would be a long, painful evening.

Back at the Professor's lab...

"Mission accomplished, Professor. T-Bone's a bit worse for wear. Turmoil was really angry with him to cause him that much damage but he'll be good as new in just a few weeks," Feral reported. "I lent my suit cloaking device to them to hide their jet so that we could sneak up on Turmoil when she was trying to escape. Worked like a charm," she added, happy things had worked out so well.

"I'm glad it help and that the SWAT Kats are safe again. As much as you don't care for them, they are an important part of the protection of this city," he said smiling gently at her.

"Yeah, yeah, I know," she conceded with a sigh.
