Okay I know that I literally haven't updated this story in two years and that's actually kind of crazy to think that I have had this account for more than two years. Recently there was a lot of activity on this story and I had this chapter in the works for a while, so here it is;

An Awkward Rescue Mission

The sun was going down as Ace, Krypto, and Steaky walked along the docs. Ace had said he knew where to find Cora, but neither of them had expected this place. The location though did explain why they had to go in disguise as normal dogs, with all the fisherman and other people there. Had Streaky known he would have come on a full stomach, instead a half empty one that caused him to easily be lured away by the entrancing smell of fish. Krypto had to keep dragging him away before he accidentally flew off. They didn't want to expose themselves and let Isis give them the slip.

By the time they made it to the warehouse that Ace had mentioned it was fully dark. Normal animals wouldn't be able to see very well, but their super powers and Ace's gadgets gave them perfect vision. Two blurs moved pass them and they all recognized the snickers that came from them. "Hyenas!" Ace growled.

"They must be working with Isis!" Krypto said.

Well, how are we supposed to get in their now?" Streaky asked.

"I have a feeling no matter what we weren't gonna end up walking through the front door."

"So you've got a plan then?"

"Sort of, but it's a little risky. Streaky, how do you feel about dressing up a little bit?"

"Oh, no! Not happening! I already deal with that enough at home!"

"I'll get you all the tuna fish you want!"

"Deal!"

Within moments Streaky was dressed in a suit with a bouquet of tuna. His hair was combed less wildly and he looked tamed and handsome. "Okay, so let's get this straight, Krypto. You want me to take Isis out to dinner?"

"Yes, it's the perfect plan, because no cat would be able to resist you looking like this."

"Now while I'm doing this, what are the two of you going to be doing?"

"We're gonna sneak past the hyenas and get into the warehouse, find Cora and go!"

"And what if Cora doesn't want to come with you?"

Krypto was at a loss for words and looked over to Ace.

"No dog wants to serve a cat."

"I'm a cat."

"Well that's different, we work with you."

"Ah! So you're saying you wouldn't work for me?"

"Streaky," Krypto sighed, "Now is not the time."

"Okay, okay."

"Now get out there!"

"But what if she recognizes me? I mean I am the wonderful and amazing Super Streaky!"

"She won't, you cats all look alike," Ace said.

"We do not!"

"Come on guys we can't just stand here!" Krypto whispered.

"Fine!"

"Now get out there!" Krypto shoved Streaky out of their hiding place.

Streaky grumbled and was about to turn back into the hiding spot when he heard laughter, "Well what do we have here?" He looked up to see the Hyenas looking down at him

"Some sort of cat, let's take him to Isis!"

They grabbed him by the collar, and went to walk inside. "Hey! Easy on the suit! It's a rental!"

The warehouse was practically empty except for dozens of cat toys and pillows piled high. There were no computers or any form of diabolical ness in sight. So maybe it was in some sort of other room. For now Streaky had to keep Isis in mind,

A sudden voice that made him nearly jump rang out, "Hello boys, what do you have there?"

"Some cat was snooping around!"

"Yeah!"

"I was not snooping!" Streaky called out.

"Well, you're a little dressed up aren't you. What are you doing here?"

Oh no! They hadn't really thought through what he was supposed to say, only that he had to take Isis out to dinner. Well if one thing id true, Streaky did have one super power before Krypto came along and that was lying. Plus, being a cat he knew just the things to say. "Well my dear, Mechanikat wanted to say thank you, and I thought you deserved more than a simple can of tuna. So I was thinking a lovely fish bouquet and a lovely dinner would suit you better."

"Mechanikat is too much of a robot! Unlike you and I who enjoy the more extravagant things. Dinner would be purr-fect. What is your name?"

Oh no! Another thing they hadn't thought about! Streaky would have to think fast and come up with a name that was suave and remotely evil sounding. "Uh- Dexter!"

"Interesting name, shall we be going?"

"But Isis! Mechanikat-" one of the hyenas yelped.

"Oh who cares, Cora can just take care of what ever he throws my way. Won't you Cora?"

A sleek, black furred dog stepped out of the shadows and Streaky nearly jumped. There was no way that she and Brainy Barker weren't sisters! They look practically the same except for coloring.

"I have no choice don't I? And who is this?" Cora asked disgusted.

"My date for tonight."

Cora made a gagging face and walked off. The hyenas quickly circled around her, bringing her to a stop. She growled at them both, and tried jumping over them. Instantly Bud tackled her to the ground. Cora got back to her feet, but her attempt to fight back only got her a slap to the face. She stumbled back to the ground and collapsed. Her yelp of pain earned the hysterical laughter of the two hyenas and Isis' obvious enjoyment.

"Let's go!" Isis called as she began to leave.

Streaky didn't reply or move, he was frozen in place at the sight of Cora being shoved around. If it were Brainy in her place, she would never let those hyenas shove her around. Cora may look like her, but they definitely were very different.

"Dexter!"

"Coming!" Streaky replied as he ran after her.

Once outside, they walked along the docks, and past the bush where Krypto and Ace were hiding. Streaky gave the signal that his part of the mission had been successful. Now it was up to the two super dogs to get past Bud and Lou, and rescue Cora.

"There's the signal! Those hyenas are going to be a bit of a problem," Ace said.

"What better way to deal those laughing freaks than to give them a reason to laugh! Do you have any laughing gas on you?"

"Of course, in my utility belt."

"Perfect, get it out and ready. We have to do this right, for Brainy."

Back inside the warehouse, Bud and Lou were tugging around on a rope in a fit of giggles. In the corner of the room was Cora lying on the concrete floor with her leg stretched outwards. The hyenas made it clear that they weren't done with her and the moment Isis left they went back to hunting their prey. Now Cora was shivering and antsy from the adrenaline rush. She whimpered and looked at her bleeding leg. The hyenas were more rough than usual, but that was probably because Isis wasn't there. Isis didn't care about her, but she didn't want her slave to be even more useless than she thought she was. Plus there was no way she was going to be able to get a dog to serve under her again.

The dark furred afghan began to doze off. Bud and Lou were not interested in her anymore. A rope was better, probably because it didn't fight back. They tugged and pulled at it until they had almost tired themselves out. A clinking noise caught their attention and they bounded over to the metal canister now on the floor. Lou pawed at it and and Bud snapped at him to be careful with it. Then they saw it, the symbol of the bat hound, Ace.

"Oh no!" the two hyenas cried as gas began to spill from it. It filled the room quickly and the cries turned into intense laughter. Bud and Lou couldn't even stop themselves from laughing. They had never laughed so hard in their lives.

Cora was awoken by their laughter and was surprised to see gas filling the room. It was almost suffocating, but not to the point where she couldn't breathe. She had to get out of there, but when she tried to stand she was reminded of the pain in her leg. So Cora dragged herself towards what she assumed was the door before she collapsed from exhaustion. The gas made her feel light headed and she was about to pass out, and the last thing she saw was a black figure running at her.
