Rouge opened her eyes. She couldn't see very well...everything was blurry. She saw something white and brown, but couldn't make out what it was. Then her vision started to focus...she could see...a face, yes, a face, with big blue eyes and a black nose. Soon she knew exactly what she was looking at: A brown furred cat. Without thinking, Rouge reacted. She turned her body into a kick that sent Flash through the air, surprised, and into a tree. She then pulled out her pistol, a slim .45 caliber with the logo of the GUN printed on the grip. Flash quickly pulled out his sword. She fired, but Flash swung and deflected the bullet, sending it careening into a tree. The sound of the ricochet echoed into forest with a deafening bang.
Rouge blinked. What had happened? And why wasn't he dead? She fired again, and Flash deflected it again. Flash started moving forward. Now Rouge was scared. She kept pulling the trigger, trying so desperately to kill this brown furred cat, all the while Flash moving closer and closer to Rouge. She eventually ran out of ammunition. She turned to run, but it was too late. Flash dove in and tackled her, wrestling her to the ground and pinning her arms down.
"Ugh! Get off of me!" Rouge said, struggling to get out of Flash's iron grip.
"No!" Flash shouted. "Who are you and what is your business?"
"Let me go and I'll tell you!"
"I can't take the risk of you flying away with those batty wings of yours. Tell me your name, at least!"
"I'm Rouge, acclaimed treasure hunter and agent of the Guardian Units of Nations, better known as the GUN!" Flash's eyes widened.
"The GUN?" Flash quickly backed up and off of Rouge.
"I know of the GUN, they founded our local Security Team and funded our headquarters!" He said.
"Really? Where am I?"
"You mean you don't know?"
"I know I wasn't here, THAT'S for sure."
"You're on the outskirts of Felonia, the hidden city. You tripped one of our alarms, and I was sent to find out what tripped it, and this is where I found you." Rouge stared blankly.
"Felonia?"
"Yes. Why can't you remember where you were previously?" Flash asked.
"I think I got bonked on the head pretty hard, 'cause when I look back at where I was it's all...blurry...I can't even remember who knocked me out!"
"Hmmm..." Flash pondered the situation. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Okay, this is what we'll do: I'll take you to the Security Team headquarters. I'm sure the Chief will be able to find out where you were, and send you home straight away!"
"Who's the Chief?" Flash opened his mouth to give an answer, when a drop of rain hit his head. A clap of thunder made both Rouge and Flash jump with fright, and soon, it was raining cats and dogs (no pun intended). Flash grabbed Rouge by the hand.
"Come on! Let's get out of this downpour!" Rouge ran after Flash, struggling to keep up as he led her through the woods to Felonia.
