"Ah, here's a common question I'm often asked about my Dark Days in Toyville opus... 'Why don't you get a life?' ... hmmm... ... that's got me stumped, so let's explain why the world famous Cy-Girls were missing from that particular story instead..." |
|
|
It begins like any other day at The Cardinal Garrison, Headquarters of the cool Cy-Girls, Toyville's highly-trained front line against evil do-ers, nefarious agents and cheap imports... |
|
|
|
... but today would mark the beginning of an expected and fateful turn of events... |
|
"Hey girls, we've got ourselves a visitor..." "Hi all - the name's Panther; I'm Kat's big sister."
|
"Oh crap... what's she doing here?" "I never knew you had another sister, Kat." |
|
|
"Hi Panther, I'm A.J.*, CyGirl Commander - welcome to Cardinal Garrison. Any member of Kat's family is welcome her; she and Wild Vamp are a pair of our most popular and skilled agents." "Cheers." "But I don't think she's ever mentioned an older sister..."
* Yes, I know there's an AJ in the Toyville Police Force, but this one's the rare long-haired variant AJ. |
|
"Heh, I guess you haven't trained the jealousy out of Kat's system yet. See, I wasn't only the older sister but the better one too - 'fraid I whipped poor Kat's butt at everything. I shoulda been the CyGirl not her... but I backed down, let little sister grab the headlines and attention for once... ... and I don't think she's ever forgiven me for that either!" "Hey, Kat - come on over and say hello to your sister? Kat? Kat?"
"mutter mutter $*@~ing troublemaker of a sister mutter mutter" |
|
|
Mid-morning, the next day... |
|
|
"Hey Panther, want to head out to the gymnasium with us for one of our rigorous two hour work-out sesssions." "Holy $@*#! Two hour?" "Yep, We're CyGirls - gotta keep fit and trained! No pain, no gain!" "Gee, Eb & Shad, 'fraid I'm busy er... doing something else. Yeah, that's it... something else other than exercise. Sorry." |
|
Meanwhile, at the Cy-Girl Rifle Range... |
|
"So, Kat, wanna tell us about Panther?" "mutter mutter double-crossing slut bitch of a sister..." "You don't get on then?" "mutter mutter... if it was up to me I'd kill the ****ing cow"
|
|
|
So, what's Kat's least favourite sister up to now? |
|
"Hey - Sky, Blaze -what do gun-toting gals like you do for fun around here?" "Well, Panther, we scan the computer readouts for any signs of enemy activi... ohmigod! We certainly don't drink cheap booze... and especially not in the Cardinal Garrison control room!" "Eh?" "Sky's right, Panther - Agents of Cardinal Garrison are tee-total; we must be in total control of our senses at all times. Which means no liquor. "Heh, no drinks and no fun...
|
... it's ok gals - it's not booze or liquor; this here's just... erm... 'Moonshine', a special little medicinal brew that keeps my senses fully tuned. Go on, try a sip... "Well..." "ah, go on..." |
|
The inevitable 'later that same day...' |
|
"Eh? Someone's been tampering this terminal...
|
...www.welloiledstuds.com... hey, who's been downloading gay porn onto Cardinal Garrison computers? Crap - there's chewing gum on the monitor... and cigar ash all over the keyboard. Who's responsible for this?"
"Hey, don't look at me, honey - I've been working out with Sky and Blaze all afternoon haven't I girls?" |
|
|
*giggle* *hic* "Well? Sky? Blaze?" "giggle... Yeah; we ain't seen anything boss, erm, A.J., Sir. Nothing to report..." "except the steel rod *hic* up your ass A.J...." "hahahahah" "WHAT?" "erm, Nothing, sir... just clearing my throat, sir." "oh, you little buttkisser, Blazey"
|
|
That night... |
|
"Hey; Blaze, Sky - you two are up late tonight aren't you? What are you up to?" "Justice never sleeps..." "Yeah? "Actually, we're off to be indoctrinated by Panther." "Heh, well, it's the first time I've heard it called that!" |
|
|
But someone else is sneaking around tonight... |
|
" Can't sleep; there's something Kat isn't telling us...
|
Hey, someone's edited Panther's files... the originals are still backed-up though... |
"... let's see... ohmigod! I've gotta warn..." |
