Swords POV

It was a regular day in Catitopia, a large area of land that is filled with felines. Everyone was going about their business collecting groceries from the grocer, hanging out with friends or walking around and enjoying the beauty of the day. We zoom in on a playground where several kids are playing and their parents are watching or playing with them as well. Me, Swords Kitty, and Scissors Kitty, my twin sister, were swinging on the swing set when I heard something. Sounded like gun fire and cats screaming so I only suspected one thing. Dogs. Those hideous mutts are at it again, trying to rule over our home.

My ear twitched as I immediately grabbed my sister and we hid into a nearby bush as the first of the black dog's van parked at the park. Scissors looked up at me in confusion before saying.

"What's wrong Swords?"

"Dogs. Vans filled with them! We need to get to Stabs." I whispered, turning to her. She gasped as I moved the leaves so I can see outside. Kids along with their parents were being yanked away from the park area and into the vehicles that the dogs came in. Children were screaming desperately trying to fight free but it didn't work. I sighed before turning back to Scissors.

"Let's go." I told her before grabbing her hand and running home. I rushed down the four blocks and turn right to our home, a wooden house that was three stories (basement, first floor and second floor) and painted white. We burst inside as I yelled.

"Stabs!"

"I know!" Stabs responded as he walked upstairs from the basement and rushed over to us. He hugged us close before saying. "I'm so glad that those dogs didn't take you two."

"I did what you told me to do! We hid and then ran home as quickly as we could!" I announced as my uncle hugged me again. He smiled.

"That's my girl! Now, you two need to head down the stairs with Mindy."

We nodded before heading down. Just so you all don't start asking yourself who's Mindy, I'll answer. She is Stabs' best friend and soon to be girlfriend. The only reason why they aren't together is that Stabs is to shy to tell her his feelings. She stood in the middle of the room impatiently as we walked down. She grabbed us by our hands as she told Stabs.

"Be careful out there okay?"

"I will." he replied as Scissors asked.

"Where are you going?"

"To show those dogs that they have to mess with Stabs Kitty before taking this town." Stabs answered before kissing us on the foreheads and was about to leave when I stopped him.

"Stabs! Don't go! Please! I want to go with you!"

"No Swords." He said sternly. "I already lost your mother, I don't want to lose you."

I looked at the floor as I thought about our mother and father. A few days after me and Scissors were born the dogs attacked us and snatched them away. They would have taken us too if Stabs haven't came in and saved us. Ever since that day, he has raised us and taught us what to do in cause of a emergency at least one that involved dogs. I looked back up and nodded before Stabs ran out of the house.

Mindy came to us and soothed. "It's alright girls! Your uncle will be fine. He is a trained assassin after all."

That was true. He worked with the government to eliminate any dangers that entered the Catitopia walls. She smiled at us before commanding.

"Now stay here while I go get my laptop from upstairs."

Scissors smiled and nodded happily as I grabbed Mindy's pocket knife that she left on the coffee table. Then I placed it in my pocket before following behind Stabs, ignoring the shouting from Sciissors as I left.

Stabs was hiding behind a tree by Town Hall which is a large skyscraper-like building in the middle of town. It was heavily guarded with dog soldiers. My uncle smirked as he pulled out a large katana from his pouch. Then he immediately came out of hiding and started slicing the mutts. It was a gruesome sight as I watch blood pour out of each body as they fell to the ground.

Once he was done making 'dog-kabobs', he rushed inside. I followed behind, trying not to step on any blood or severed body parts. I continued to follow Stabs through the halls as he sliced any guard that was in his path. Blood and heads were flying to my face as I dodged them. The chopfest stopped when we reach the top floor which had a door that said Boss's Office.

Stabs took a deep breathe and held his sword tight. It seemed like he was nervous. Probably thought that something bad will happen to him if he went in. He looked up to the heavens before walking into the room. I stayed outside, watch the whole scene as it went.

"Licorice, trying to take over Catitopia again I see." Stabs said as Licorice, the black dog at the desk, turned to him. He smiled.

"Yes Stabs, after 7 years of training and preparation I have finally done it."

"Not for long." my uncle hissed as he jumped, bringing the sword down on his head. Licorice smirked before moving aside and taking out his gun. As Stabs touched the ground, the dog shot him on his cheek, which caused Stabs to fall roughly on the ground, dropping his blade. I gasped as Licorice laughed and bent down to his level.

"Oh Stabs, I applaud you for trying, an A for effort!"

I frowned before taking my knife out off my pocket and threw it at the dog. He winced in pain before looking around and said.

"Who threw that?!"

He then looked at the doorway and saw me. I stepped back as Licorice said smugly. "Well, who is this little kitty?"

Stabs immediately got up and turned to see me at the door. I smiled sheepishly as he hissed between his teeth. "Leave. NOW!"

Licorice patted Stabs on the head before speaking. "Oh Stabs, I don't hurt children anymore. Come on in!"

I was skeptical at first but I walked in and as I moved closer I picked up the knife and stuffed it in my pocket. Licorice smiled.

"Great! you are just in time to watch your uncle DIE!"

I immediately stabbed the dog in his face before dragging my uncle home. Licorice hissed in pain as we headed down the stairs and out the door. Once I got there, Mindy and Scissors were waiting. My little sister hugged me as Mindy went to go stitch up Stabs' wound.

Its been 8 years since then. Stabs decides to train us to become assassins and we fought together in battle. Scissors, at first, denied being an assassin and wanted to be like Mindy, a scientist and spy. I sighed before telling her how awesome an assassins' life is compared to a dumb spy. She rolled her eyes before saying 'fine.' She then declared that if she didn't like it, she was going to be a spy. Scissors been an assassin ever since.

2: Save Mindy and the Kitty

"So, this is it. You all are just gonna lay here?!"

Mindy crossed her arms in anger as she looked at her colleagues. Swords was eating a bag of chips loudly as she watch her favorite movie, Scissors was listening to music in her headphones while staring directly in Mindy's face and oblivious to anything she was saying, and Stabs was playing an app on his phone.

"You all are terrible! I swear if you all don't get up and save that poor kid from Licorice, I will march down there and save him by my damn self!" Mindy snapped as Swords looked up at her and said with a mouthful of chips.

"Then do it girlfriend!" she swallowed before continuing. "By all mean, just walk out there, snatched the boy from the dog and run! I bet you'll get your head blown off before you leave his office!"

"I bet I can!" the scientist barked as the teenage kitty sneered.

"Sure but you own me ten bucks if you lose."

"Fine."

And with that, the older cat marched out of the hideout and into the open street, leaving the other three cats to continue with what they were doing.

~I~I~

"WILSON!" Licorice called from his desk in his office. A short white pup popped into the room not to long after his name was called. His brown eyes stared at the pug in attentiveness as he asked.

"Yes Mr. Licorice sir?"

"Where's the prisoner?" the older dog questioned as Wilson pointed a finger to a cage on the floor in the corner and responded.

"He's in that cage over there sir."

"I want you to put him higher up." Licorice ordered as Wilson asked.

"How?"

The pug stared at him angrily. "I thought you smart!"

"I am!" he retorted as Licorice barked.

"Then GET TO WORK!"

Wilson yelped a bit as he scurried out of the room to get the materials and Licorice smirked. Once the pup came back he got straight to work, standing on a tall ladder and placing a shelf up there so the cage can sit on. The four year old kitten in the cage stared at the pup in interest as he worked. The kitty then looked over as the pug who smirked wickedly back at him. He started to tear up as he asked the older dog.

"Why did you trap me mister?"

"Because this city is mine." Licorice said simply, continuing to smirk at the kitten. "and I not going to let a little kitty like you wander around MY town!'

The black kitty let some tears stream down his face as he questioned. "Where's my mommy?"

Licorice continued to smile. "She's in a far away place now. Somewhere that you will soon be heading to."

"Where?" the child asked as he wiped his eyes with his dirty shirt. Wilson then walked over and picked up the kitty's cage before walking him up the ladder and placing him on the shelf he just made. The pug just stared up at him with the same grin on his face, refusing to answer the small cat. Wilson then climbed off the ladder before looked at Licorice.

"Is there anything else you need sir?" the pup quizzed as Licorice replied

"Nah, I'm about to talk a walk to make sure everything is in order. Stay here and watch the cat."

He handed Wilson a gun before whispering. "If those Kittyz come and try to take him, blow their brains out."

"Yes sir." he whispered back as Licorice patted his head before exiting the office. Wilson laughed before dropping his tools on the floor and jumping into Licorice's big office chair. He put his feet on the desk before staring up at the capture kitty above him, who looked straight back with wide eyes.

"You're afraid, aren't you?" Wilson inquired as the kid replied

"Y-yes."

"Do you want to play a game?" he mused, pulling out his gun and twirling it around his fingers before pointing it at the kitten. He shook his head rapidly as the pup chuckled and shot at the little cat. The kitty avoided the bullets as Wilson laughed and he eyed the gun.

"You're a pretty fast kitty, aren't ya? Too bad you weren't fast enough for THIS!"

He shot a fast one that hit the black cat in his hand. The small cat screamed as he clenched his wounded hand. He took off his shirt before wrapped the fabric around his wound. The pup laughed before getting up and walking towards the door.

"I'm about to go make me a sandwich, don't go anywhere." Wilson mused as he left the room laughing. The kitten continued to cry until Mindy slid through the doorway. The four year old's ears perked up as a smile crept on his face. The female feline smiled back as she whispered.

"Don't worry, I got ya."

She was about to pounce when something grabbed her foot. Mindy's eyes widen in shock as Wilson entered the room, clapping his hands. "Bravo Mindy, you just got trapped. It's a shame that your friends aren't here to save you."

"You're not gonna get away with this!" Mindy shouted as a cage formed around her body. The pup smirked.

"Don't worry, I already have."

~I~I~

"Hey! Has either of you seen Mindy? She's not in her room "

Three full hours past and Stabs just realized she was gone. The girls shook their heads in unison as Stabs frowned. "Seriously?! Neither of you saw her?"

"Nope." replied Scissors before she stared at her sister. "Did you?"

Swords put her finger against her chin before responding. "Oh yeah! I made a bet with her that if she could save that little kid that was trapped at Licorice's by herself, she would have to give me ten bucks!"

"What?!" their uncle shrieked as an alarm went off and Stabs ran to Mindy's computer.

"Nice one Swords..." her sister said sarcastically as she and Swords raced to the computer room. Once they got in there, Stabs met them with a serious look on her face.

"She's trapped at the dog's hideout. Go girls go!"

"Do we have to?! I mean, we don't NEED a scientist to make out smoke powder or put poison for our-" Swords was cut of by her sister who snatched her wrist and pulled her into the changing room. As soon as they were dressed, they dashed out of the headquarters and into the streets. They slayed the guards in the front and everyone that were in their path until they spotted Licorice and hid in a nearby plant.

The pug walked by and started to walk up the stairs as Swords smirked. She got up and was about to race towards Licorice when he turned around and shot in one fluid motion. The cat jumped before aiming her sword for his head and Scissors ran between the pug's legs to get upstairs. Licorice sneered before racing up the stairs with Swords close behind.

In the office, Wilson walked around his caged victims with a wicked grin on his face. His smile faded as soon as Scissors burst through the door. The pup took out his gun before saying.

"Well, well, well! Look what the cat dragged in!"

"Shut you yap Wilson and hand over Mindy and the kid!"

"Make me Kitty."

Scissors clenched her teeth as she leaped onto the pup, making him drop his gun. The teenage cat beamed as she placed her sword near Wilson's neck. She smirked but then frowned when Swords came in alone.

"Where's Licorice?" Scissors asked as Swords unlocked the lock on Mindy's cage with her claws before jumping to the cell with the kitten in it.

"I tied him up in the hall." she responded as she got the black kitty out and put him in her arms. "Now let's roll!"

Scissors smiled as she got off of Wilson and ran out the door with her sister, the kitten and Mindy in tow.
