Secrets & Love

Tyler just finished jumping onto the balcony of his house. He quickly went inside through the open doors and said,

" Sky, stop stalking." Instantly a gray light started at the tips of his clouded leopard ears and went all the way down to the tips of his shoes. Tyler then walked over and face planted into his pillow on his low bed. He buried his face in his pillow, and closed his eyes. As he slowly drifted off to sleep he didn't even realize Sky jump onto the balcony railing and then leap off and pad silently over to Tylers bed. Sky climbed up and in a sleepy manner, stretched out and yawned before curling up next to Tyler. Tyler felt the warmth of Sky next to him and then wrapped his arm around her, and pulled her closer to him. Sky woke up with a jolt as she was pulled closer to Tyler but when she felt his arm rest on her, she smiled and then went back to bed resting her head on her paws. 

                                                       ***

The next morning Tyler woke up to his alarm and got up, changed and as he was brushing his teeth he noticed Sky come in. She came strolling in and stretched as she yawned awake. Tyler spit into the sink and wiped his face on a towel near him before saying,

" Good morning Sky, how are you?" Sky jumped up onto the counter and sat down, her large tail curling and flicking back and forth as she said,

" I'm good, right now the weather in my eyes today is a slight drizzle." Tyler pat her head as he walked passed and said,

" Thanks weather cat, but whats it really like today." He walked out of the bathroom and through his room, finally over to the open doored balcony. He rested his arms on the railing and looked out among the chimneys of London, thinking about Foxtail and the events from yesterday. Suddenly he felt Sky purring and leaning against his legs. He looked down and smiled then bent down to pick her up. Sky allowed him to and as he did, she said,

" So, what'cha think'n about today?" Tyler sighed and said,

" You probably already know Sky..." Tyler sighed and then turned around to walk back inside. He walked over to his bed and sat down he also put Sky down in front of him. Sky circled back to face Tyler as she said,

" Ty, you know you can't know her identity. It's too risky, Black-bandit could use her to get to you." Tyler smiled dreamily as he muttered,

" Yah, but that can't stop me from dreaming about her." He looked out at the bright blue sky through one of his large windows, as he heard Sky gag and say,

" Bleh!" Tyler looked back down at Sky and said,

" Oh don't give me that kind of attitude Sky, I saw you with that fox." Tyler seemed to notice Sky jolt as she said,

" What! Okay, let's get this straight, he asked me, I didn't." Tyler stood up and walked over to his desk chair that was neatly placed in front of his desk which had four computers on it, saying,

" That doesn't mean you fell for him, just like I fell for her." He muttered. Then he grabbed his gray and black shoulder bag from his chair. Then he walked back over and around his bed to his bed room door. But before he opened it he said,

" Sky, come on." Sky quickly came and walked over to his side then when he opened the door he looked out and saw the same white marble staircase and walk way that went around the room. When Tyler saw no one was there he said,

" Sky, go and hide in your usual spot, I will look up when It's time to go." Sky nodded and raced out while Tyler walked off down the stairs then turned left to walk down another set of stairs to the main floor. He walked across an open concept then walked through a pair of large brown doors into the dining room where in the seat near the door was a silver plate with eggs, and toast as well as a glass full of milk. He sat down and put his bag down on the ground next to him. Then started eating his breakfast. 

                                          ***

As he was about to leave the hall, he heard a voice behind him say,

" Tyler, where are you going?" He turned around to see his mom and dad standing next to each other. Tyler rolled his eyes and walked over to them. He stood in front of them looking down at his bright blue shoes. His mom who had her blonde hair in a loose braid said,

" Have a good day at school honey." She pulled him closer so she could kiss the top of his head. Tyler then turned around looking only ahead and not back at his parents as he heard his dad say,

" Bye son, study hard."

" Yah, thanks." With that he shut the dining room door behind him. He looked up at the ceiling and stared blankly at it. Suddenly, Sky poked her head out and looked at Tyler from above, saying,

" You ready to go?" Tyler looked at her smiling and said,

" Yah, let's go before they start arguing again." He started walking from the dining room door as Sky jumped and landed silently next to him and they walked to the front door and walked on their way to school.

A Suprise Attack

When he was close to the school he quickly hid around the side of the school and said bent down in the grass. He looked down at Sky who had quietly followed him and said,

" Alright, hide right here, and I will come get you after school." Sky looked up at him, flicking the end of her tail as she asked,

" But, Ty, what if you need me during class?" Ty stood up and said,

" Well at least you know where I am. Don't worry Sky, I know you'll find a way to sneak into the school. You'r a clouded leopard after all." Added Tyler, winking at Sky. He then walked passed her and walked around the school to the large stairs up to the main doors. As he entered the school he saw many other kids talking and hanging around. He then noticed a girl with red hair in a ponytail standing next to the metel stairs that led up to the tenth grade classes. The girl wore black leggings and an orange short sleeved shirt with a hood. Her orange backpack matched her shirt. Tyler knew this girl, it was Sinopa. Tyler walked over to Sinopa who was just standing with her arms folded. Tyler walked up next to Sinopa and said,

" Hey, Sinopa how are you." Sinopa turned her head and said,

" I'm good, you?" Tyler said in reply,

" I'm fine." There was a short pause between them and then Tyler heard Sinopa say,

" Are you really fine? Come on Tyler, you can tell me... whats going on?" Tyler smiled and sighed before saying,

" I'm just so tired of my parents arguing every second of the day, and then when I come home or when they approach me they just act as if everything's okay! It's so... so..." His voice trailed off as Sinopa said,

" Annoying." Tyler looked at her and noticed she had raised her eyebrow. Tyler smiled saying,

" Exactly." Just then the bell rang and Sinopa said,

" Well, better get to class. See you later Tyler." She walked around him and Tyler watched as she walked up the stairs. Just then he noticed a figure moving around in the shadows of the open gym floor. As he looked closer, he made out the figure to be Sky. Tyler smiled and then followed after Sinopa. As usual, Tyler made it to english class on time, and sat in the front row of the stadium like desks. He then immediately got out his tablet. Tyler then turned his attention to the front of the classroom as a woman with long jet black hair came strolling in. The woman then started writing on the board with a piece of chalk, while saying,

" Alright, everyone we are going to be getting started right away with talking about different possible solutions that fairytale characters could have done, alright someone give me a character in a fairytale... Uh, Alex can you give me one?" Tyler looked up at a short haired girl who had pink ends of her wavy blonde hair as Alex said,

" Uh... Red Riding hood." Just then another girl who had straight long orang-ish red hair said,

" Oh, really... you think Red Riding hood is a real fairytale character? You must be just as dumb as she is." Tyler saw Alex narrow her eyes as the teacher said,

"Amber, I don't remember calling on you to speak in front of the class. Next time if you have something important to say, you can raise your hand and then wait for me to call on you." Tyler saw Amber roll her eyes before looking back at her tablet. Then the teacher continued on with the lesson. 

                                           ***

By the end of the first class of the day, Tyler already had an assignment to read chapters one through five in the story, The Little Mermaid and find at least three things that the character could have done differently, then explain how it would affect the rest of the story. Tyler walked out of the class and skipped a few doors to the right, turning a little to get to his next class which was science class. 

                                               ***

He got through half the day without anything going wrong, it wasn't until his study hall in the library that he heard someone call out his name. He looked up from his tablet and saw it was Sinopa who said,

" Tyler, come quick somethings happening!" He quickly got up and followed Sinopa to the center of the library where behind the front desk was a TV that displayed what the security cameras caught. Tylers eyes went wide with what he saw. He saw at least four men wearing black outfits in each of the four cameras  start running around in different parts of the school and grab a couple people and start dragging them out of the view of the camera. Just then Tyler heard the doors slam open and in came four bandit men. They ran around and started grabbing anyone who tried to escape. Tyler narrowed his eyes and started to run and help anyone who was caught. He managed to help get three people to safety but as he was about to run and go get someone else free he felt someone grab hold of him. Tyler looked and saw it was one of the bandits. Tyler tried to break free but as he was almost free another came over and grabbed. Together they started to drag him away. He continued fight back but it was no use. Suddenly he heard someone say,

" Tyler, duck!" Tyler did so just as he saw Sinopa come over and jump into the air. The next thing he knew he fell to the ground with the impact of one of the bandits falling. Tyler shook up and then used his feet to kick off the other bandit who still had a hold on his forearm. Once the bandit was off of him, he looked up and said, 

" Wow, thanks Sinopa, now let's get out of here." He looked around and then heard someone say,

" Don't worry, kid your gonna be fine." Tyler narrowed his eyes and went behind a book case to see another couple of bandits on top of Sinopa and holding Sinopa's arms so she can't move. Tyler also noticed that they had put a cloth in her mouth so she can't call for help. Tyler narrowed his eyes as he said,

" Hey, hands off her!" He then punched the man who was on top of Sinopa. He watched as the man staggered back holding the side of his jaw. Tyler then looked at Sinopa just as Sinopa used her feet to kick herself up and as doing so she managed to throw the second bandit into the air and make him land right on top of the other one. Sinopa took the cloth out of her mouth and looked at Tyler saying,

" Wow, thanks, I owe you one." Tyler held a hand up and said,

" No need, you saved my life first, so now we'r even." Sinopa smiled at him and Tyler smiled back, but then said,

" Now, let's get out of her before these two get madder." 

" I agree." Added Sinopa, and Tyler grabbed her hand pulling her out of the library. He then ran with her to the nearest stairs but as they were about to go down, Tyler caught three more bandit men come out and start running at them. He pulled Sinopa back up the stairs and they ran down the hall. They came to a corner with a bathroom sign next to two doors. Tyler let go of Sinopa's hand and said,

" Hide in their, I'll lead them away." Sinopa stopped out side the girls bathroom and said,

" And let you have all the fun, really?" Tyler smiled at her joke but his smile quickly disappeared as he said,

" Please, if they do get me, then I don't want them to get you." Sinopa looked wide eyed and Tyler left her like that he then ran for the other staircase. Luckily he was able to get down and out of the school. He ran to the side of the school and immediately saw Sky waiting for him. He smiled and said,

" Sky, I'm so glad to see you." Sky gave him a displeased look and said,

" What took you so long.?" Tyler who was breathing heavily said in between breaths,

" I- was helping some of my classmates a-and... Heh! I had to find a way to get rid of the bandits from catching us." 

" Us?" Asked Sky with one raised eyebrow. Tyler then raised one of his eyebrows as he said,

" Sky, you know I'm in love with someone else, plus Sinopa's just a friend." Sky rolled her eyes as she said,

" Alright fine, but now let's get going! We've got work to do!" Tyler stood up and gave her a confident smile while saying,

" Sky! Let's Hunt!" With that Tyler felt the silvery gray light go over him and when the light was gone, he looked at himself and saw the large spotted tail and his black suit with lighter gray spots the blended in with the black, perfectly. He then looked back down at Sky and said,

" Time for Cat Stille and Sky, to kick these bandit's butts!" 

" You said it!" Replied Sky. Tyler then ran around the school and through the main doors saying,

" Alright Sky, I'll distract them you go ahead and give them a mark to remember us by." Sky nodded and then started on climbing up the school wall from the door. While Tyler walked into the school and said,

" Hey! Bandits why don't you come out and show me what you can do, oh wait, but you might have trouble finding me." He smiled as six or eight bandits came from classes or from hiding in the shadows of the school. Tyler held his arms out and said,

" I'm right here, so come and get me." As three of the bandits came running at him Tyler narrowed his eyes at a small figure that was lurking at the feet of the other bandits. When Tyler looked back at the bandits who running towards him, he thought,

Okay, now thats a little too close for comfort. So Tyler jumped up in the air and twisted his body so that he spun in the air like a rolling barrel. He landed and looked behind him to see a pile of three bandits. He looked back in front of him and said,

" Well, it looks like the three banditteers didn't do so well, now who's next." Added Tyler as he moved one foot back and put his hands up in front of his face creating a fighting stance. At that all the bandits came running at him Tyler did the same. As he ran he took out two shurikans and threw them to both sides. In fear the bandits crouched down together, ducking their heads. Tyler continued to run and as he neared the group of bandits he held both hands open for both shurikans. Once they were safely back in his small sack he jumped and landed in the middle of the some what circular shape that the bandits made. He first kicked one in the ribs who was about to grab him then he turned around and grabbed hold of one of the bandit's out stretched arms and tossed him over Tyler's head and throwing him into another bandit. Tyler put his hands on his hips at his work, but suddenly he felt someone grab his arms and pull them behind his back. Tyler struggled hard, but finally he heard Sky's voice say,

" Cat Stille, concentrate!" Once Tyler was free he ran and did a flip in the air, tucking his legs in while one bandit tried to grab him. He then looked back to see Sky pinned to the ground as she said,

" Cat Stille!" Tyler's eyes narrowed as he ran back for her, but three bandits came in front of him and blocked his path. He heard Sky's voice say,

" Cat Stille, go find Foxtail!" Cat Stille smiled with his eyes a little relaxed as he said,

" With pleasure." As he said that he put his right hand over his heart and his left hand behind his back then he bowed down. Just then his clouded leopard ears twitched and he stood up straight to see who it was. All he heard were footsteps on the floor, running. Suddenly he caught almost eight bandits come up and start running towards him. Tyler narrowed his eyes but surprisingly they only circled around him. Cat Stille put his hands on his hips shacking his head as he said,

" Really, you think that circling me is going to catch me." In reply, one bandit said,

" No, but it can help do this." Suddenly all bandits started running for him, while two or three dived for his feet the rest went for his upper body. Soon enough Tyler was flat on his back on the ground, fighting off the bandits as they tried to drag him away. Finally, he was able to break a hand free and suddenly he felt something wrap around it. The next thing he heard was a familiar voice say,

" Cat Stille, hold on tight." Tyler did so and felt him self start to being pulled up from the ground. Once the bandits got off him, Tyler waited for them to start run at him again before yanking on it. Just as the bandits where about to grab him he put to fingers to his forehead and saluted. Suddenly he felt himself fly up and over the railing. He rolled on the ground and landed against a beam upside down on his neck. He crossed his legs and folded his arms as the orange figure he saw said,

" Sorry I was late Cat Stille, I was trying to help the other students who were stuck in the library." Tyler shrugged and said,

" I was doing just fine on my own, mi'lady fox but It was nice of you to lend a helping hand." He leaned to one side and then stood up from there. He looked at Foxtail as she said,

" Uh, huh... It sure looked like you had everything under control." Tyler then bent over the railing to look over and see a few bandits look back up at him. Tyler then sighed and said,

" Foxtail, they have Sky, and I ruined the plan to defeat these guys." Foxtail walked over and put a hand on his shoulder and said,

" It's alright Cat, we will get her back." Tyler smiled then realized that Trix wasn't here with them, he gave Foxtail a confused look as he said,

" Uh, where's Trix?" Foxtail replied,

" Oh, he's hurt from our last battle and master says he needs time to rest so I hid him in the girls bathroom." Tyler then remembered about Sinopa and wanted to say something but he then thought that it would give his secret away if she did know me. Suddenly a bandit called for them saying,

" Hey! You super hero's! If you want your little kitty, then come and get her!" Cat Stille looked and saw that another bandit was holding a bag that moved around. He realized that they had captured her and put her in the bag. Suddenly he felt very angry and said,

" Let her go!" He jumped up on the railing and with his large tail he was able to balance on his feet. He was about to jump off when he felt that his tail wasn't coming with him. He turned to see Foxtail holding on to it as she said,

" Wow, kitty you really need to cool yourself. Let's think, this could get tricky and it could be a trap." Tyler cocked his head and said,

" True... do you have a plan, mi' lady fox?" He turned around and grabbed the bars with his hands as Foxtail thought out loud saying,

" Hmmm, if you really want to get your accompanier back then we will need a distraction but it will need to be one where they least expect it and thats also how we are going to beat these bad guys." Tyler smiled and put his elbows on on his knees and rested his chin on his hands looking at Foxtail intently as she thought out loud. Finally, she stopped talking to look at him and asked,

" Are you going to help me come up with a plan, or are you just going to sit there like a lazy cat." Tyler shrugged and said,

" I just like listening to you pour your mind out to me." Foxtail put her hands on her hips and said,

" You silly kitty, well I hope you've been listening good because I think we are ready to go." Tyler jumped off and said,

" About time!" Foxtail smiled at him and said,

" Alright, Cat Stille... do your thing!" Tyler nodded and held his hand up in the air saying,

" Cat-a-quake!" immediately a gray light shown from his paw and through his blackish gray glove. He looked at his hand and saw the outline of a paw glowing a bright gray-ish green color. Tyler looked back up at Foxtail and nodded at her. Foxtail did the same then Tyler watched as Foxtail ran to the staircase and walked down it. Next Tyler ran in the opposite direction and ran till he could see Foxtail approaching the group of bandits. Her hands up as she said,

" I just want to ask something." Tyler then quietly and quickly climbed over the railing and grabbed hold of the beam and slid down it, silently with one hand while the other hand with the leopard paw mark on it posed when ready to strike. He then ran back under the walkway above and quietly snuck along the edge and in the darkest parts of the wall. He came around under the cover of shadow and came behind the group of bandits. He looked through the group and straight at Foxtail giving her a single nod. Once Tyler heard Foxtail say,

" Well, thank you for your time now if you don't mind I better get going. I don't want to be in the way of an earthquake!" With that Tyler put his hand with the paw mark down on the ground. Suddenly he felt the ground start to rumble and shake under his feet. He looked up at Foxtail who said,

" But before I go I think you have someone who belongs with us." The bandits started to lose their balance and the one holding the squirming bag let go and it flew through the air right towards Foxtail. Suddenly Tyler saw something come and jump up in the air right in front of Foxtail. 

" Foxtail, look out!" Yelled Tyler who quickly jumped over the unstable ground that the bandits were slipping and sliding on. He met up with Foxtail just in time to see the figure look at them. Tyler knew exactly who it was... Black-shade. Black-shade then ran over to a silver, metel door that was unlike the other. Tyler and Foxtail followed her as Tyler heard Sky start yelling in the bag,

" Cat Stille, Foxtail! Whats going on out there! Where am I going." Black-shade opened the door and went in through the small hallway. Tyler held the door open for Foxtail saying,

" You first mi'lady fox." He looked up with his eyes to see Foxtail smile at him.

The Choice

Tyler then followed in after her letting the large door close behind them. The hallway was dim lighted with white lights. They followed the hallway all till it opened up to a room with pipes and other plumbing equipment. As Tyler came into the room he thought he smelled something funny in the room. He looked around to see where the smell was coming from but as he was looking he caught something move in the shadows. He pointed to the side of the room and said,

" Over there, I saw something move." He watched as Foxtail ran over but after a few moments she turned around and said,

" I don't see anything. Suddenly something came down on Foxtail. It was a large glass box thing . The box fell right on top of her. Tylers eyes went wide and he ran over to Foxtail saying,

" Foxtail, are you okay!?" Foxtail replied in a muffled voice,

" I'm fine, but I need to get out of here!" Tyler looked at his hand and only saw that one of the pads was fully lit up. He looked back at Foxtail and said,

" My powers still need time to recharge, I can't use my Cat-a-quake again until It's recharged." Just then they heard a voice above them give a chuckle and said,

" Auhh... poor kitty... is his little foxy trapped. Well, I have a challenge for you!" Suddenly she pulled a rope to reveal another glass enclosure with Sky trapped inside. He looked up at the figure who now came into view on the railing. Black-shade looked down at Tyler and said,

" Either pick you'r kitty, or pick your foxy." Tyler looked from Black-shade to Sky who put her paws on the glass saying,

" Cat Stille, you need to get Foxtail out of here so she can use her powers and get me out of here." Just then Black-shade said,

" Oh sorry leopard, but I couldn't make it too easy for him." With that she pressed a button on the control pannel she now held in her hand and suddenly, Tyler saw jets of white-ish blue and green smoke fumes start being sprayed into each of the glass enclosures. Tyler looked from Sky's enclosure to Foxtail's and bit his lip. Both of them had started coughing by now and Tyler knew he had to choose, either the love of his life, or his accompanier who gave him these powers.

" What's a matter kitty... Cat got your tongue?" Said Black-shade joking around. He finally went over and put his hands on Foxtail's enclosure and said,

" I'm sorry Foxtail, I promise that I will come back and get you." With that, Tyler looked up at Black-shade and said,

" I wish you to release my accompanier." Black-shade said,

" Very well." He watch carefully she pressed the button on the control pannel and then jumped down in front of Tyler and said,

" Just remember, this is my fathers doing not mine." Tyler's eyes went wide and he looked at her with a confused look just before Black-shade pulled down on the rope. Suddenly Black-shade zipped up into the air. This allowed the glass like encagment to be pulled up and it allowed Sky to escape the gassy enclosure. Tyler picked her up and hugged her asking,

" Are you okay, Sky?" Sky coughed before saying in reply,

" Yeah, I'm good." Suddenly all the lights went out and Tyler tried to look around in the dark. Luckily he could still see in the dark. Tyler could see the figure of Sky and said to her,

" Uh were'd the lights go?" Suddenly the lights came back on and Tyler blinked a little for his eyes to adjust so quickly. Once he could see again he noticed that the second glass enclosure that held Foxtail, was gone! And so was Foxtail. He looked around and said,

" Black-shade were's Foxtail! What did you do to her!" The only thing that answered his question was the slam of the door. Tyler put Sky down and said,

" Black-shade's kidnapped Foxtail, come on!" Then he started running for the metel door. When he opened it he saw a large group of recovered bandits right there to greet him. Tyler narrowed his eyes and slowly reached down in the open bag with the shurikans in it as he said,

" I don't appreciate you taking something from me, especially when it's the love of my life, so give me my lady fox back!" With that he jumped into the air giving a cat noise and he tossed the shurikans into the air and made them make a few loops around the bandits to keep them scared so that Tyler could push his way passed them. Finally on the other side he quickly saw Sky come up next to him and say to him,

" Cat Stille, we need to track them, but-" Just then Tyler caught one of his shurikans in his hands which startled Sky who continued saying,

" But we need to becarful because it could be a trap." Tyler who's eyes were almost slits now said in a stern voice,

"You start tracking there scent I need some time to think." Sky nodded and went off sniffing the air. As for Tyler he held his hand out to the side at the sound of the second shurikan slicing through the air. Next he ran across the gym floor and jumped up high onto the railing, next he climbed up a beam and onto the open air roof. Tyler then ran and jumped clear across the street to the next house roof. He ran all till he came to a roof that gave a good view of Big ben. He looked at the top of it thinking,

Why can't I just tell her how I feel?... Foxtail, I love you. He sighed before thinking again,

I love you Foxtail. Since the first day and since that first fight I loved you. I will always protect you and what is necessary to do so. He thought about Foxtail and who she really is under that mask. Then that struck up a thought and he thought,

Well, how ever you are... all I know is that you are the girl of my dreams. He sighed again, till suddenly he heard the voice of Sky say,

" Hey, Cat where are you?" Tyler put his finger to the ear bud in his ear and said,

" I'm coming, have you sniffed them out?" Sky immediately said in reply,

" Yah, and It looks like they are making a loop around to Big ben." Cat Stille said,

" Well, what a coincidence, I'm already there, I will keep an eye out." Suddenly he noticed something moving on the roofs near Big ben. Tyler realizes that its Black-shade and she's holding a bag. Tyler quickly stands up and puts his hand to the ear bud saying,

" Sky, I've spotted them, and they are headed to Big ben, directly. Get your tail over here quick." Suddenly he heard a voice behind him say,

" You got it." He turned around to see Sky as she hopped down from a chimney and over to meet Tyler on the edge of the roof. He then said,

" Sky, I think I have an idea on how to get Foxtail back."

" Lead the way Cat Stille." With that Tyler jumped off and landed on a balcony edge below then jumped and ran across the street. He then took out two shurikans and stuck them hard into the brick wall using them to help him climb up to the roof. Then he started to jump from one house to the next, hiding behind the chimneys when Black-shade turned his way. Finally, he was on big ben and looking at Black-shade from behind. Next to her was the bag laying on the. She looked over at Sky who had just poked her head up over the edge. Tyler nodded to her letting Sky know that she could do her part in the plan. With that Sky hopped onto the same level that Black-shade was standing on and as she flicked the tip of her tail she said,

" Alright skunk, let's settle this." Black-shade put her hands up in front of her face and said,

" With pleasure." She then kicked at Sky who dodged and leaped up onto Black-shades head. She then used her thick furred paws to cover Black-shades eyes. Black-shade started to stumble around, surprisingly she didn't fall. As Sky distracted Black-shade, Tyler crawled along the top of Big ben. Then he pulled the bag towards him till he had it leaning against the side of the roof. Tyler opened the bag and pulled it off Foxtail. He realized that Foxtail wasn't awake, instead she was sleeping. Tyler bent near her and said,

" Foxtail, you okay? Foxtail wake up." Suddenly he heard Black-shade's voice say,

" She's alive, but in a trans. The chemical that Foxtail breathed in was to make her fall asleep." Tyler narrowed his eyes as he peeked over the top but they immediately went wide when he saw Black-shade holding Sky by the extra fur on her neck over the edge of the tower. Black-shade narrowed her eyes as she said,

" Either save you'r kitty and give me Foxtail, or keep Foxtail and watch you'r kitty die right on the street." As Tyler looked at Black-shade he heard her say,

" Cat Stille, I don't think I can't take a fall from this high!" Tyler looked at the sleeping Foxtail and then to Sky, finally he looked at Black-shade and said,

" Drop her!" 

" What!" Exclaimed Sky. As for Black-shade she said,

" Very well, but now you don't have anyone to help you fight me to get Foxtail. She's weak and an easy target." Just then Black-shade dropped Sky over the edge. Tyler watched as she fell twisting in the air trying to keep her feet down towards the ground. Tyler raised an eyebrow and said,

" Thats were your wrong, Black-shade. I don't have to fight, and now that you've let go of Sky, then I can have both of them." He quickly picked up Foxtail and then jumped off the edge of the tower. He narrowed his eyes as he saw Sky getting closer and closer to the ground. Finally, he caught up to Sky and grabbed her, allowing her to perch on his shoulder. As they grew closer he said,

" Sky, hold on tight!" Then he felt Sky's claws dig into his shoulder and he winced. Then he grabbed Foxtails whip and threw it up into the air not even aiming for anything. Suddenly he felt the whip jolt and they sprung in back into the air. He then unwrapped the whip when the whip had stretched out till they were on the ground. He sat Foxtail down and then turned to look back up at Big ben, saying,

" Sky, you protect Foxtail, I'm going to deal with miss skunk up there." Just as he was about to run off he heard Sky say,

" Cat, just remember never make me fly again, or fall for that matter." Tyler smiled and said,

" Alright, I'll keep that in mind." With that he ran off taking a pair of shurikans out of his bag and started running up the wall of big ben digging the shurikans into the wall. He finally made it to the top and looked up just in time to see a foot come swinging at him. Tyler leaned back and lost balance on the side of the wall by letting go of one of his shurikans while the other one came loose. Tyler looked around for something to grasp but sadly he fell to fast to grab anything. Tyler then grabbed the whip that he wrapped around his belt and flicked it up. The whip wrapped around Black-shades leg and with Tyler pulling on her she slipped off and started falling down. Tyler used his strength to pull the whip around and over to a street light were he made the end of the whip that was wrapped around Black-shades leg twist around the light and left Black-shade dangling from her leg up side down. As for Tyler he swung around the neck of the street light till finally he slowed to a stop landing on top of the street light looking down at the dangling Black-shade saying,

" So, how does it feel to be caught in a hunters trap?" Black-shade looked up saying,

" Well, to be truthful, I'm not caught in a trap I'm just waiting for someone to let me go." She added folding her arms and raising an eyebrow at Tyler. Tyler smiled and said,

" Are you sure because if your waiting for someone to come and rescue you then... You'r gonna be hanging here for a while.” Tyler jumped off the street light and let the end dangle out of reach from Black-shade so she couldn't get free. He then turned around Black-shade till he was looking down at her and he said,

” Just hang in there till the police come to get you.” He then left her to go and check on Foxtail who was still asleep. He looked up at Sky who didn't say anything. Tyler then asked,

" How's she doing, Sky?" Sky didn't answer. Tyler tried to look at Sky's face but she only moved her head down. So Tyler lifted her head up with his finger and immediately caught sight of Sky's watery green eyes. He fell back shocked and surprised then he looked back at Black-shade and said,

" What did you do to her!" Black-shade crossed her arms and said,

" Oh, nothing just a little over powering scent in the smoke. It will make her totally under my control." Tyler narrowed her eyes and asked,

" What about Foxtail!" Black-shade said,

" Oh, I knew you were going to pick Sky over Foxtail, so instead of spelling Foxtail, I spelled your accompanier... Sky, attack Cat Stille!" With that Tyler looked over at Sky just in time for Sky to bar her teeth and growl. Tyler knew she was going to pounce so Tyler scooted back, still on the ground. Finally, Sky lept into the air Tyler fell on his back and his legs posed. Next, when Sky was close enough, Tyler rolled on his back making his feet hit Sky's stomach and as he rolled up he pushed Sky over. Tyler turned around as quick as he could saying,

" Sky, stop this... It's me, Cat Stille." Sky hissed and started running at Tyler again. Just as she flew over him as Tyler ducked down, he got an idea. He raced around Big Ben then ran across the street jumping on the tops of cars. When he was across the street he looked back to see Sky following his every move. Tyler smiled and muttered to himself saying,

" Thats it kitty." He then ran around the corner jumping over large groups of people. Finally, he came to the store with a sign dangling to the side of the door that read, Cat Toys. He looked around to see Sky come running around the corner but suddenly she got trapped between a group of peoples legs. Tyler smiled and walked into the store thinking,

That should hold her up for a few moments. 

                                                ***

When Tyler came out of the shop he saw something from the corner of his eye. He turned just in time to see Sky jump at him. Tyler quickly took out a ball of yarn and held it up. Almost immediately Sky landed at Tyler's feet and looked up at him with cute eyes. Tyler smiled and said,

” Alright kitty, kitty... Fetch!” With that he threw the yarn down the sidewalk. Sky then lept and ran after it. As for Tyler, he looked back only once before running in the opposite direction back to Big Ben Tower. When he finally came back to Big Ben he found that Black-shade and Foxtail were gone. Tyler hung his head as he muttered, saying,

” Does she ever stay still?” Just then he noticed someone walking up to him. Tyler looked up and saw that a policeman was standing in front of him. Tyler quickly stood up and said,

” Uhhh... Sir, have you seen a skunk girl carrying an unconscious fox girl. The officer raised an eyebrow and said,

” You mean Black-shade and Foxtail... Look, Cat Stille, I’m not dumb.” Tyler smiled innocently before holding his hands up in front of himself as he said,

” Of course, sorry sir.” With that the officer smiled and said,

”The last we saw them it looked like they were going to Buckingham Palace. Wonder why she would be taking Foxtail to a palace?” Tyler looked down at the ground thinking,

Palace, palace... What would Black-shade do with Foxtail at a palace? Just then Tyler knew where Foxtail would be in the castle. He put a hand on the officer's shoulder and said,

” Sorry, I gotta go but please gather your  officers and surround the front of the castle and make sure you also look up on the roof.” With that, he started running as the officer said,

” The roof? Why the roof?”But Tyler was too far away to answer. He ran and jumped on a moving truck and grabbed for a street light. Then swung around once before letting go and swinging onto a nearby railed balcony and jumped from there onto the roof and continued running to Buckingham Palace.
