“Talking”

‘Thoughts or Thinking’

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!

Feral growled at the TV as a report flashed about an attack on Megakat Bio Labs by Dr. Viper yet again. He was stealing a new chemical that was still in the process of being tested. Not only had Viper stolen the chemical but Steel had the temerity to blame it on his niece while he stayed safe and sound back at headquarters. ‘When I get back there, I’m going to ring that little weasel’s neck!’ Feral snarled to herself.

Turning off the TV, Feral left the living room for Hackle’s Lab. She hoped he’d gotten a report from Dr. Konway about the virus and hopefully, a way to reverse her change.

"Professor?" Feral called out as she walked into the lab. There was no answer and she didn’t see him around.

Feral shrugged it off figuring the professor was perhaps upgrading James somewhere else in the immense lab. Using this time, Feral looked around at all the inventions Hackle had created over the years. All were to help Katkind in some way or other. At the end of the room Feral noticed a strange door. Wondering what was behind it and knowing Hackle wouldn’t mind, Feral pushed a button on the wall causing the door to slide open.

Inside the room were two suits made completely out of metal both of them were hanging on the wall; one was for a female, the other male. Next to it were two motorcycles, one blue the other black and at the far end of the room was a jet.

"What are those?" Feral wondered aloud as she looked closer at the suits.

"I see you found my new body armor." Professor Hackle said surprising Feral as he came up behind her.

"Body armor? I’ve never seen this type of body armor before." Feral said, intrigued, lifting up one of suit arms, "It’s heavy. How can anyone move in this?" She looked at Hackle, a puzzled frown on her face as she stepped back from them.

"It only feels heavy while hanging but once the wearer puts it on it is quite light, I assure you and very flexible." Hackle smiled limping over to Feral.

"What can it do?" asked Feral

"No, my dear. The question is what can’t it do. This is a prototype. The metal is the same as the one I used for the metallikats bodies. These have a new type of scanner inside the helmet and the ability to increase the wearers strength and speed up to ten times." Professor Hackle explained.

"That’s amazing! Any weapons?" Feral asked eyeing the body armor with more respect.

"A few. In the left arm is a saber sword that can cut through anything like butter. In a holster on the right leg is a special blaster that fires a laser then switches to launch mini net missiles making capture of criminals easier and finally it carries darts with a paralytic to immobilize your target. The gloves are made of a special alloy and protects the wearers paws when punching through walls and most metals with ease. And, finally, I’ve perfected a cloaking device that will hide the wearer from most radars.” Hackle said proudly.

"What is that?" asked Feral pointing at the strange part just behind the right ear.

"A radio antenna so a kat can hear enforcer channels and know what’s going on and be able to speak to others if need be. It’s heavily reinforced so it won’t snap off that easy." Hackle said.

"This is quite impressive, Professor. If only my enforcers had such an armor." Feral breathed in envy.

"It is still in the developmental stage. I need someone to test it for me." Hackle said quietly, not looking at Feral.

"That’s a shame. Won’t my enforcers send anyone to test it?" Feral asked turning to the old kat. Professor Hackle shook his head, "No because I had only just sent the report on it to you the day you were kidnaped."

"And Steel most likely ignored it seeing that it still needed to be tested." Feral said frowning.

"That’s about right. He said he’d look into it once it was finished but without anyone to test it the armor will be staying here for a while. However, ..."Hackle said thoughtfully looking at Feral.

"However...?" Feral echoed.

"What if you were to test the armor for me, Commander? You could tell me what areas need improvement. After all, you have nothing better to do. What do you say?" Professor Hackle asked watching her carefully.

Feral stood there quietly looking at the armor. They looked like metal kats except for the helmet which was rounded on the front. Both were painted white with the scanner part a light blue color.

"Commander?" Hackle coaxed.

"I’ll do it." Feral said decisively.

Smiling Professor Hackle moved over to a locker and pulled out some type of black leather latex suit except for two strips of blue on the arms. At the back of the neck was a penny size steel button. The same button was on the base of the tail, elbows, knees and feet.

"What is that?" Feral asked taking in the weird clothing.

"I call it a nerve suit. It connects your nervous system to the body suit allowing it to move as you move." Hackle explained.

"I see. Do you put it on with clothes or without?” Feral asked looking over the nerve suit.

“Clothes off completely so that the contact points will freely touch your body.” Hackle said.

“Okay.” She nodded and took the nerve suit to the bathroom to put on. Moments later she returned, the suit fitting her like a tight glove leaving nothing to the imagination.

Hackle had to look away but was pleased it fit so well. “Now we will put the body armor on.” He said keeping his eyes off her and looking at the hanging body armor.

“What should I test out first?” She asked as she helped him bring the body armor down.

"The distance between here and Megakat City and back will be enough for the speed test. For the strength test we will have to go to the mountains." Hackle directed.

"Alright, now how do I put the armor on?" She said looking it over as it stood on the floor.

Hackle pushed a button that blended in so well on the back of the armor that Feral didn’t notice it at first. The top of the armor opened in front like opening doors while the bottom half stood rigid. Feral stepped into the bottom, one leg at a time, and winced at the coldness.

"Ack, that’s cold!" She exclaimed.

"Don’t worry, the armor will adjust itself to your body temperature." Hackle said reassuringly, chuckling a bit.

Nodding, Feral carefully pushed each arm into the armor. Hackle touched the button and the suit closed itself silently. Hackle then handed Feral the helmet, showing her the scanners inside that gave her a clear picture of everything including a tongue toggle switch that allowed her to switch the view to see behind her.

"The scanner works fine." Feral said approvingly as she moved her head around and tested the toggle switch. Her voice was a little deeper from the speaker system in the helmet.

"That’s wonderful, Commander. Now let’s begin our first test.” The Professor said pleased as he went to his computer console and brought up the screen showing Feral’s view inside the helmet.

“Now I’ll monitor your progress and time it. Go outside!” He ordered. Feral followed Hackle instructions and walked through the lab and up to the front door.

The walk helped her get used to the movement of the armor. She was amazed at how light the outfit felt when she fully expected it to be a little heavy and unwieldy. Once she was in position she told him she was ready.

"Alright. Now run as fast as you can for the city limits. Go!" Hackle commanded. Feral took a deep breath and ran as fast as she could while Hackle watched her on his computer.

"Commander, can you hear me alright?" Hackle’s voice spoke though the communicator.

"Crystal clear! Just how fast am I going?” Feral asked as everything passed her in a blur.

"You’re doing about one hundred mph right now. The armor will go up to two hundred mph but I would not recommend it. Your body may not be able to handle it." Hackle warned her.

"Wow! This is really something! I’ll be careful Professor but I want to go just a little faster.” She told him thrilled by the speed she was doing.

Picking up the speed, Feral was amazed yet again at how fast she could go and how well the armor helped her handle any turns including sharp ones easily. Luckily, not many kats visited Professor Hackle except for the Mayor and Ms. Briggs. Unluckily, said kats just happened to be coming down the road in the Mayor’s limousine.

Feral speed was such that she was past them before they even registered anyone was there and probably dismissed it as a dust devil going by. ‘I wonder what they want with Hackle.’ Feral thought about it for a second but then pushed it away from her mind as she focused on reaching the city limit. Once she got there, she hid in an alley near some office buildings. As she prepared to turn around and return Hackle’s voice stopped her.

"Feral, I forgot to you tell about the jet packs I just installed on the armor. But we’ll get to that later. Now I want you do a quick test for me. I want to know how high you can jump with the armor on." Hackle ordered.

"I can’t do that! What if I’m seen?" Feral exclaimed quickly looking around to insure no kat was around.

"Don’t worry, Commander. The cloaking system will handle that." Hackle soothed her.

"And how do I turn it on?" She demanded.

"Just tap in the code. There is a mini computer in you left arm." Hackle told her.

She turned her wrist over and saw a panel on her arm. Opening the cover she saw a small keypad. He gave her the code to activate the system, getting a green light indicating it was functioning. Feral raised her paw in front of her waving it. She could feel it moving but couldn’t see it. She switched the scanners to heat seeking and could then see her paw.

"Hackle it’s working." Feral said impressed flicking it back to normal vision.

"Good! Now I want you to try to jump to the top of that building next to you. The armor is supposed to allow you to jump at least five stories without difficulty and land lightly using a jet propelled system and shock absorbers. It will also allow you to jump from building to building with ease.” Hackle informed her.

"Right, well we’ll find out soon enough. Oh, and Hackle... the Mayor and Deputy Mayor should be arriving at your home right about now." She warned him.

"Oh, yes I hear them now. I will have James monitor you while I talk to Mayor Manx and Ms. Briggs." He thanked her then signaled James to come to the lab.

Giving the robot its instructions he made his way to his living area to greet his guests. Hearing nothing more Feral turned to face the building she was standing beside. She was a little nervous but squashed it down as she bent her knees and pushed off the ground hard.

In moments she was soaring upward then landing a bit awkwardly but solidly onto the two story building’s roof. She stood there in shocked amazement. It worked! ‘Wow! This thing is fantastic and the SWAT Kats don’t have one.’ She thought smugly. ‘I can’t wait to see what else it can do. But for now, I’ll continue to check the jumping ability.’ With that she went across the roof and began jumping from roof to roof. As she moved along she tuned into the enforcer band to check where the patrols were. She was furious when she learned Steel had cut the patrols back severely. She learned where Felina was patrolling and headed that way.

On the way, she noticed a familiar looking armored vehicle heading for the Megakat City Mint. ‘The Metallikats!’ Feral gasped jumping down from a four story building ready to follow them but stopped suddenly. ‘Damn it! I can’t stop them. My enforcers will have to handle this. But...I could watch just to be sure everything goes okay and Steel is really handling things.’ thought Feral staying close to the building so no one would run into her cloaked form. She listened in on the enforcer band and heard Felina call in.

"Attention! The Metallikats have broken into the city mint. All enforcers respond!" Felina ordered.

Her niece would only wait a few minutes before going ahead and taking matters into her own paws Feral knew so wasted no time in moving closer to the mint. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to her, two familiar ‘heros’ had picked up the alert and were on their way to the site as well.

Just as Feral arrived some enforcers that were close by to the scene had already entered. Feral could hear lasers firing. She watched from the sidelines, close enough to see but not enough to interfere with was happening. It was then a familiar jet roared overhead alerting Feral that the SWAT Kats had arrived. ‘Oh, no! Not those hot-shots!’ Feral groaned as she watched the SWAT Kats enter the mint. Nervously Feral watched ready to spring in if anything should go wrong.

And something did. Mac shot at the ceiling sending it falling to the floor right where Felina was standing. Just one word rang in Feral’s head, ‘No!’ They had always been there for each other. She couldn’t allow her niece to be harmed when she could do something about it. Her body was moving before she even completed the thought. Feral swept up Felina into her arms and carried her out of the way. Hearing the crash of the ceiling, Feral turned around with Felina in her arms.

To say she was shocked was the understatement of the year. Felina who had tried to get out of the way of the falling ceiling, felt strong arms sweep her up and move unbelievably fast out of harms way. She thought it was one of the SWAT Kats but they weren’t nearby. Instead she stared up at an armored she-kat that wasn’t Molly.

“You alright?" The metal she-kat asked putting Felina down.

"Yes, thanks. Who are you?" Felina asked taking in the she-kat body armor. It was something she’d never seen before.

"No one of importance." Feral said hesitantly.

A metallic voice spoke up near them. "Well, well. Molly. It looks like we have a new hero in town. Why don’t we teach her a lesson?" Mac snarled his gun raised and ready to fire.

"Yeah, it’d be rude of us not too!" Molly snorted pointing her own gun at Feral and Felina.

Feral pushed Felina behind her ready to fight when T-Bone and Razor fired one of their mini missiles sending Mac and Molly flying away from the pair. But that didn’t stop the metallikats long as they easily shrugged off the missiles and began firing back.

"Get down!" Feral shouted shoving them both to the floor as they were caught in the cross fire.

‘Those stupid hot shots! Look what they’ve done! I got to stop this.’ She thought angrily. "Stay here!" Feral ordered her niece.

"I don’t take orders from you!" Felina snapped angrily

"You will if you want to live!" Feral snapped back using her command voice.

Jumping to her feet, Feral lunged across the room while staying low to the ground so as not to get hit. Grabbing Mac with her left arm and Molly in her right, Feral spun around lifting the two up with ease then threw Molly to the far left of the room and Mac to the far right. Mac hit the power box this time which shorted him out and Molly hit the wall but was back up and charging forward in a fury.

"Mac! Look what you did to my husband!" Molly screamed angrily and began firing at Feral.

Feral easily dodged the laser. She drew her saber out and sliced down onto Molly’s chest cleaving it in two. Molly only had time to screech then shorted out, her eyes going dark.

Whispers began flowing around her... ‘Did you see that?’... ‘Who is she?...‘Who cares?... She’s a hero!’ The last comment made Feral sick with dismay. ‘No, I’m not a hero. I’m a vigilante!’ Feral thought in horror. She’d done exactly what she’d said she wouldn’t do.

The SWAT Kats were standing not far away. T-Bone couldn’t believe what he just witnessed. He stood there shaking his head. Razor was more excited than shocked.

"Wow, T-Bone did you see that?!" Razor said in awe.

"Yeah, I did, buddy." T-Bone answered still a little shocked and amazed.

"I wonder who she is? Hey, T-Bone why don’t we talk to her? That armor of hers is amazing and I would like to ask a few questions about it." Razor urged his partner as he began heading over to where the odd she-kat stood.

"Uh...Okay...," T-Bone said reluctantly following.

Feral watched the SWAT Kats approach trying to decide if she should stay or get the heck out of here. Hackle’s voice suddenly piped up in her ear.

"Commander, what’s going on? Has something happened?" Hackle asked anxiously.

He’d only just got rid of the Mayor and Ms. Briggs so hadn’t been on hand to see what had been going on.

"Later, Professor. I’m right in the middle of trouble with the enforcers." Feral whispered. She could hear the Professor’s ‘Oh, no!’ of distress before tuning him out.

"Thanks for the help. I’m Lt. Felina Feral and these are the SWAT Kats, Razor and T-Bone." Felina introduced them and offering her paw.

"Hi," Razor said enthusiastically.

"Hey," T-Bone said more cautiously.

Feral only glanced at the SWAT Kats even if they couldn’t see her do it. Then ignored them as she turned back to Felina and ignored her extended paw.

"You shouldn’t trust me just because I saved your life. For all you know I could be working for Dark Kat or any of the other major villains of Megakat Kat City." Feral said grimly still very angry at herself.

"So it’s all a plan for you to rescue the Lieutenant?" Razor said skeptically.

"Could be.” Feral said non committedly.

"No way! No one whose bad would risk their life for another’s just for the sake of a master plan." T-Bone snorted derisively smelling a lie.

"You know nothing about me, SWAT Kat! So don’t go making the stupid mistake of trusting me!" Feral snarled.

Before anyone could say anything more, Feral turned and ran like a blur out of there. Not wanting anyone to follow her she turned the cloaking system on and raced back to the Professor’s lab leaving a stunned Felina and equally shocked SWAT Kats in her wake.

“Did you see how fast she was going?” Razor breathed to no one in particular

. Once she was back at Professor Hackle’s home, she walked into the lab. Hackle helped her remove the body armor. She told him she’d brief him on what had happened when she got dressed. She left for her room and pulled the nerve suit off and redressed.

When she walked back through the house she stopped in the kitchen to make herself something to eat. She heard the TV on in the living room and took her sandwich and drink there. She found Hackle and James staring at a news flash. She was about to bite her sandwich when what was being said halted her in mid-motion.

"This is Ann Gora, Kats Eye News, reporting live to you from the Megakat City Mint where the Enforcers and the SWAT Kats attempted to stop the Metallikats. During the fight, a piece of ceiling was about to flatten Lt. Felina Feral when a new hero appeared and saved her at the last second and defeated the Metallikats.” Ann reported quickly then turned to Felina and asked, “ Lt. Feral, could you tell us more about this new hero that saved your life?"

"No! I know nothing more about her than you do. The only thing she said to us was to not trust her.” Felina said flatly turning way.

"So the hero is female but why would she say that?" Ann called after her but Felina only shrugged her shoulders and continued on to her vehicle ignoring the presses questions.

Professor Hackle heard a groan near him and turned to see Feral staring at the TV in disbelief as pictures of her in the body armor flashed on the screen.

"Looks like you’re a hero, Commander." Hackle said quietly. Feral only groaned again.
