Episode 1: Where It All Began

In the city of Orrville, the evil scientist, Dr. Dee Horner was experimenting on her latest potion. It contained every superpower known to man.

"With this potion," she said. "I'll conquer the world and be invincible!"

She called her henchmen, the Bark Bikers, who were dogs that she had increased the intelligence of and taught how to ride motorcycles.

"We must take this potion, and I shall test it out," she explained.

"Yes, ma'am," the Bark Bikers said.

Little did the doctor know she was about to run into 4 kittens that would be her archnemeses.

At that moment, 15-year-old April Winslow was walking down the street when she came across an abandoned box of kittens.

"Ooh, how cute," she said, kneeling down to pet them. "I bet you don't have homes."

Just then, Dr. Horner was taking her potion to field test it when she bumped into April.

"Watch where you're going, kid!" She said not too kindly.

She didn't notice she had dropped her potion on the street. The kittens started lapping it up, and that's when something strange happened.

"That was weird," one of them said.

"It tasted awful," another said.

"Remind me not to drink that milk again," a third said.

"Wait a minute," the last one said. "We can talk!"

"My potion!" Dr. Horner cried.
Jane didn't know who the lady was, but given how rude she'd been, Jane decided to grab the kittens, and just run. There was something about the woman that seemed very wrong. After all, as her father had said, "Sometimes the only thing we can do in a difficult situation is to trust your gut, especially if it feels worse than whenever you try too many tacos - don't confuse the two though."

At the moment, Jane's gut was telling her to run.
Without saying a word, April scooped up the kittens and made a run for it.

"Bark Bikers, sic 'em!" Dr. Horner ordered.

As April was about to make a clean escape, the Bark Bikers rode their motorcycles in her path, blocking her way.

"Where do you think you're going?" Alpha, the blubbery bulldog leader, said.

"You don't scare us," the orange kitten said.

He and his fellow kittens jumped out of April's arms and arched their backs.

A big battle was about to break out. The orange kitten zoomed around some of the Bark Bikers, creating a whirlwind that lifted their motorcycles into the wind. It did subside when they were 5 feet in the air.

The largest kitten, who happened to be a serious eater, flipped Alpha's motorcycle into the air. He held it in his paw and tossed it at Dr. Horner.

The black female kitten suddenly turned invisible and snuck up behind a Great Dane, one Omega by name. She gave him a mighty smack, knocking him out.

The white female kitten stretched her torso to great lengths and used it to tie the Bark Bikers up. She then slung them into Dr. Horner, knocking her off her feet.

April couldn't believe what she had just seen. Could these kittens be aliens? They were in the box when she found them.

"Step aside," she heard a voice say.

She looked up to see a police officer rushing past her and handcuffing Dr. Horner.

"Are you alright, April?" She heard the chief of police say.

He was her grandfather. Despite his old age, he was very muscular. The top buttons on his shirt were unbuttoned, showing the top of his hairy chest.

"I'm alright, Grandpa," she said. "These kittens fought off those dogs. I don't know what happened, but they looked like they had superpowers."
That was when April noticed her grandfather's shirt. "Um, did grandma get some sort of new detergent?"

The old man rolled his eyes. "Yeah - shrunk everything by like half a size. I'm lucky that I could find a shirt that I could wear without ripping it, same with the pants."
April looked over at Dr. Horner, who was being arrested.

"Grandpa," she said. "Who is she?"

"She's Dr. Dee Horner," he said. "She's a mad scientist. So, you say these kittens fought off the Bark Bikers?"

April was puzzled.

"They're bikers that are loyal to her," he continued. "They'll be sent to the kennel as well."

"What about the kittens?" April asked.

Her grandfather shrugged.

"I'm sure your parents wouldn't mind you keeping them," he said.
"Okay," said April.
In no time at all, April's parents arrived at the scene.

"April, are you alright?" Her father said.

April explained everything to them and told them about the kittens.

"They look so cute," said her mother. "I'm sure they'll be happy with us at home."

"Then it's settled," her grandpa said. "But first, Dr. Horner is off to jail while her henchdogs, the Bark Bikers, are off to the pound!"

"Now to think of names for the kittens," April said.
"Helps if you know if they are boys or girls," said Grandfather. "At least, that's how it was back in my day."
When the Winslow family got home, the first thing April did was bring the kittens to her room.

She began to sort out which kittens were boys and which ones were girls. She could have sworn they talked before.

"Come on," she said anxiously. "Say something."

"Have you got anything to eat?" The chubby one said in a male voice.

"Okay," April said. "I'll call you Rolly. You must really like to eat. One down, three to go."

"I like it!" Rolly said as April tickled his tummy.

"Me too," said the white kitten in a female voice, playing with him. She was wearing a headband and leg warmers on each leg.

"If I look closely," April said. "I can see Stripes in your fur. You shall be called Stripes. Two down, two to go."

The orange kitten started to style its the tuft of fur on its head like a mohawk.

"Purr-fect!" It said in a male voice.

"You look tough," April said. "So your name is Rocky. One more kitten to name."

She turned to the black kitten who was slipping a pair of headphones around its neck.

"You're my favorite!" It said in a female voice.

"Since you're black," April said. "I'll call you Shadow."
"I never understood why cute things got terrifying names, and terrifying things got cute names," said Grandfather, as he listened from outside the door. "I mean, I had this sweet Pitbull named Lulu - very friendly, unless you were the dumb fool that tried to break into the place - that fool's scream sure did wake my father up - found that fool up in the maple tree, with Lulu at the bottom, the seat of his pants in her mouth. Father gave her a nice steak the next day for that."
"So, what now?" April asked "I bet your four are hungry."

"Yeah!" Rolly said excitedly, while the others just nodded.

"What do you want? I think we still have a whole jug of milk in the fridge."

The kittens shook their heads. "We're too old for milk." Said Shadow "Come to think of it, I'm hungry for something, I just don't know what." The others nodded in agreement. For the next hour, April dug through the pantry and cabinets, looking for anything a cat could eat. But the four kittens rejected all of her suggestions. "I don't understand it." She said "Just what do you feed super powered cats, anyway?"
