“Talking”

‘Thoughts’

“Hello, T-Bone or should I say Chance Furlong?” Dark Kat said cruelly.

“Dark Kat?! What have you done with Ursula?” Chance asked, rage and fear in his voice. Jake moved to his side hurriedly so that he could listen in and see what Dark Kat had to say.

“Nothing ..…yet. But I and my partner will harm her if you don’t follow my orders.” Dark Kat told the distraught male, enjoying the fear he was causing his enemy.

“Let me speak to Ursula first.” Chance demanded.

Dark Kat thought about that a moment while looking at the dark furred she-kat then handed the cell phone to her. Ursula glared at him as she accepted the phone.

“Speak to your mate or my partner will help you.” Dark Kat said coldly. Dark Razor smiled cruelly at her. Shivering at the implied threat, Ursula spoke to her worried mate.

“Chance?” Ursula asked softly.

“Kitten! Are you alright?! Where’s Felina?” Chance asked, urgently.

“We’re okay, Chance. Your doubles and Dark Kat are working together…” Ursula began to say before Dark Kat snatched the phone from her abruptly.

“Now that you’ve assured yourself that I have the she-kats, let’s get down to business. For the next twenty-four hours, you and your partner will not respond to any call for help anywhere. You show up, your mate and the lieutenant will suffer the consequences. Understood?” He ordered.

“Yeah, understood! We won’t respond to any call for the next twenty four hours.” Chance agreed, grimly.

“Excellent!” Dark Kat purred then pressed the button to cut the connection.

Chance stood there looking at the phone for a long moment before throwing the phone to the floor and roaring with fury. Jake was shaking with anger himself but he knew he had to keep a cool head if they were to get their loved ones out of danger. He reached down and picked up the phone.

“Chance, calm down. We’ll get Ursula and Felina back. We just need to strike when they do. Whatever Dark Kat is planning will happen soon and when it does, his guard will down.” Jake said firmly.

“You’re right! I have to calm down. We…we need to monitor the Enforcer band so we can know where Dark Kat is striking.” Chance said, getting his rage under control. He would save his fury for later when he could be face to face with Dark Kat and their doubles.

“Let’s get down into Ursula’s hangar and get ready while we listen to the radio. We’ll be ready to go the moment we hear something.” Jake said heading for the back door and the stairs.

As Chance followed him, he voiced a concern. “I think we need to go the Ursula’s doctor’s office to see if there are any clues about where our doubles might have taken them.” He said with a frown as they went to the elevator and down to the hangar.

“Oh, you might be right about that. I’ll have James monitor the radio while we get ready. I also want to try and find the GPS signal for Ursula’s cell phone so that we can track it back to her. That’s going to be our best bet for finding them.” Jake said hurriedly.

In the Megakat mountains, Dark Kat tossed the phone to Dark Razor who pocketed. Eyeing the pair of she-kats, Dark Kat studied the dark furred one more closely. He just couldn’t shake the feeling that he knew this female somehow. There was something familiar about her. Shaking his head in annoyance he glanced at Razor.

“Razor, take them to the holding cell. I’m sure your partner must be getting kind of lonely.” Dark Kat said smirking.

Dark Razor snorted in amusement as he pointed his glovatrix at the she-kats, “Move it you two!”

Felina and Ursula glanced nervously at each other but moved in the direction Dark Razor indicated. They walked down a dark tunnel till they came to an alcove with metal bars and a locked cell-like door.

Inside the cell was Dark Chance sitting on one of the two cots, his head hanging low. He jerked it up when he heard them. Ursula felt her heart sink and she traded a troubled look with Felina. ‘This can’t be good.’ She thought unhappily.

Dark Razor unlocked and opened the door. Chance had lunged to his feet and his eyes widened as he looked at the pair being shoved in by his partner. He didn’t pay much attention to Felina as she moved into the cell, his focus solely on Ursula. He ignored Felina’s warning off look as he moved to stand between them.

Dark Razor closed and locked the door then stood and watched his partner reaction toward the she-kats. He frowned unhappily.

“Razor didn’t hurt you did he?” Chance asked her gently.

“No, he didn’t. Why are you in here?” Ursula asked, feeling tired.

Chance glanced over at his ex-partner who was staring back at him. “He and Dark Kat think I’ve gone soft. That’s why I’m in here.” He growled.

Dark Razor snarled at Chance then turned and walked quickly back up the tunnel. ‘It your own fault! You betrayed me first!’ He thought furiously as he disappeared out of view.

Felina pushed Chance back away from her aunt. She still didn’t trust him even though they were all locked up together. Chance sighed as he watched Felina give Ursula a supporting paw around her waist and glared at him.

Ursula just shook her head at Felina and looked back at Chance. “Why would they think that?” She asked wearily.

Dark Chance noted her exhaustion. “Please, you need to rest. Lay down on the cot, I’ll stay over here.” He said as he moved away and sat down on the other cot.

Frowning, Felina helped her aunt to the indicated cot and made her sit. She stared at Dark Chance in puzzled confusion.

“Is there any way out of here?” Felina asked him cautiously, wishing she understood his motivation.

“No! I checked out the whole place, it’s sealed tight.” He answered her then looked at Ursula with concern. “Ursula are you okay?” He asked.

“Yes, I’m okay. Ow!” Ursula began to answer when a sudden pain caught her. She placed a paw on her swollen abdomen.

Hearing her cry out in pain caused Chance to lunge to his feet and make a move toward her. “What’s wrong?” He asked urgently.

Felina had countered his move by stepping between him and Ursula ignoring the scared look on Dark Chance’s face.

Ursula, however, just smiled wanly. “I’m alright. The kitten just kicked. Do you want to feel her move?”

Chance eyes widened and flashed with hope at the question, “Could I?”

“Ursula!” Felina exclaimed, shocked by her aunt’s willingness to allow Chance such a liberty.

Dark Chance looked at Felina to see what she’d do. Felina frowned unhappily but stepped to the side and allowed him to approach her aunt without interference.

Dark Chance walked slowly over to Ursula’s side, he knelt down and cautiously reached out a paw to her belly. His fingers lightly traced it before laying his palm down completely. A sudden kick against his paw made him gasp in pleased surprise.

“What’s her name?” Dark Chance asked, quiet awe in his voice.

“Winry.” Ursula said with a quiet smile.

Waiting tensely in Ursula’s hangar, Jake and Chance were dressed and waiting with James for Dark Kat to make his move. They had already loaded the Turbokat with new missiles that Jake and James had created.

Suddenly, an alert came over the radio. “Attention all enforcer squadrons. There’s been a report of an attack at the Megakat Nuclear Power Plant. Enforcer One has ordered all ground and air units to respond immediately.” The dispatcher barked out.

“That’s our cue, Chance!” Jake said, putting on his mask and helmet.

“Right, James keep us informed of what’s going on and if Dark Kat leaves that area.” Chance ordered as he too put on his mask and helmet.

“Yes, sir!” James said, watching the two toms hurry off to their jet.

The hangar doors opened as T-Bone started up the jet’s engines. Moments later, the jet raced out leaving jet fumes behind. Using all engines, T-Bone made quick time to Ursula’s doctor’s office. They landed on the building and hurried inside.

“Where’s Dr. Gibson’s office?” Razor asked as they went in through the roof door.

“Third Floor.” T-Bone said, leading the way.

They raced down the stairs to the third floor. Opening the door, T-Bone paused to check the hallway before stepping out and moving quickly to the appropriate door. He opened the door and stepped in with Razor at his heels. Inside were patients sitting in the waiting room and a nurse behind the check in desk. Standing behind her was Dr. Gibson who stared at them with in shocked surprise.

“SWAT Kats, what are you doing here? I’ve already notified the enforcers about a kidnapping here.” She said tightly.

“Yes, we heard about that and thought we could help find whoever’s missing. We just need to know more about the patient in case of problems. It’s possible we can find her faster than the enforcers since it suspected Dark Kat has her.” T-Bone said persuasively.

“Oh no, how awful! The one he’s taken is Ursula Furlong. She’s a high risk pregnancy case.” Dr. Gibson said, very afraid for her patient.

“High-risk pregnancy?” T-Bone said, his heart tightening at this unexpected news.

Dr. Gibson nodded, “Yes! She’s has a condition known as placenta previa.”

“What’s that?” Razor asked, not liking the sound of it.

“In some females, the placenta drops down and blocks the cervix. It can happen anytime during the pregnancy and can cause bleeding. If monitored closely and there’s no stress to the mother the pregnancy can be quite normal until its time to deliver. Ursula is close to delivery so I’ve schedule her for a C-section because her placenta has not cleared the cervix and delivery through the vagina is impossible. Her kidnapping could push her into early labor.” She explained.

“What happens if she goes into labor?” T-Bone asked, nearly shaking with terror.

“Severe maternal bleeding during delivery, which can be life-threatening for both a mother and her fetus. The kitten and/or the mother could die. Ursula from massive bleeding and the kitten from lack of oxygen.” Dr. Gibson said grimly, terribly worried for her patient.

“If that happens how much time do we have to find her?” Razor asked ‘Oh, god T-Bone, I’m so sorry!’ He thought glancing at his nearly pale partner.

“Everyone’s labor goes at a different rate and a first time one could go as long as twenty-four hours but in Ursula’s case, bleeding is a very real possibility and you may be lucky to have twelve hours after labor begins.” She said tensely.

“Don’t worry, we’ll find her in plenty of time.” Razor vowed he assured her as he pushed his partner back out of the office.

He kept pushing his shocked partner toward the roof stairs and kept him moving until they reached the roof where he stopped and let T-Bone go. His friend was trembling with anger and fear.

“Why? Why didn’t she tell me?! Her life’s in danger and she didn’t even tell me! Why damn it?!” T-Bone cried out in anguish.

Razor didn’t answer and waited for his partner’s emotional storm to pass. T-Bone slammed his fists against the Turbokat again and again. He looked away and tried to keep his tears of anguish from his eyes. He felt so much pain for his friend and Ursula as well as their kitten. They just had to find them and fast.

When he felt T-Bone had expended much of his anger, he went to him and placed a comforting paw on his shoulder. “Come on, buddy! It’ll be alright. As soon as I find the GPS signal for her phone will be on our way to finding her. You’ve just got to pull yourself together.” He urged his friend.

“Why Razor? Why didn’t she tell me?” T-Bone asked, ignoring what his friend had said.

Razor sighed and looked away. Obviously, T-Bone just couldn’t let go of this. “I think she was worried you would compare her problem to Sarah’s and get too upset. She probably felt, as long as the doctor monitored her, things would be fine and she’d tell you when it was too late for you to worry too much. I have to say that would be just like Ursula to do that.” Razor said.

“But at the risk of her own life?!” T-Bone said angrily.

“T-Bone, she probably figured the risk was worth it and that she could handle it. Of course, she never thought something like this could happen. Don’t forget, as an enforcer, she was used to taking risks. This would just be another one for her to handle.” He shook his head. “It doesn’t matter now why she did it. All that matters is that we find her and find her quickly.”

“You’re right. You start tracking the GPS signal. We’ve got to find her within twenty-four hours.” T-Bone said, bringing his frightened mind back in focus on the task at paw.

“Then let’s get to work.” Razor said.

They jumped into the cockpit and T-Bone fired up the engines and took to the air. He went high and held their position while Razor worked feverishly trying to find the signal that would take them to Ursula and Felina.

‘Hang on Ursula! I’ll find you! T-Bone thought grimly.

‘Please God, let us find Ursula soon.” Razor prayed anxiously as he worked.
