[color=crimson][b][u]Letters to Super C: #27[/u][/b][/color] ---------- [i]To the mighty Cat of Steel, SuperCat Dear Sir: I'm waiting for my turn to be documented by the C.I.D.F., but it was easier to write a letter to you, because I'm not really as familiar with the C.I.D.F. as I am with the G-52s. Believe me, though, I am very grateful for both organizations. I know it was really frustrating for you back in the day, because CNG made everything a big stalemate. You weren't able to do your job as a superhero, but the supervillains you fight couldn't do what they wanted to do either, because CNG got in the way and made life miserable for all of us. "I bet the G-52s are glad they didn't have to form a coalition with the AIRAF or somebody," my wife said to me. "Those villains never keep their promises. There's too much hate stemming from their ungodly agendas." But my question about CNG was this: I heard it was supposed to be unpredictable, but how big of a degree of unpredictability do you suppose it was? I ask because I live in the same neighborhood as a couple of police officers that were human beings, and yet CNG turned them into lions, even though their wives are still human. I don't understand that. But I thought it always chose the same species of animal, because both dads have two sons each, who also became lions. Yet the family I am head of has gone to the dogs (bit of a joke here if you get what I am saying), but it's not the same dog breed. As with the lions, my wife is still a human being. I ended up as a Dalmatian (which is cliche and almost a stereotype in a way, because I am a firefighter; likewise, one of the police officers I know ended up as a German shepherd), my two daughters a rough collie and a Scotch collie, respectively, and my five sons (three of which were actually adopted) all became a black Labrador retriever, yellow Labrador retriever, chocolate Labrador retriever, golden retriever, and a German shepherd. [b]NOTE:[/b] I am not giving away all the ages, but I am listing each of my offspring in order from oldest to youngest. The oldest of my kids at this point is 26, while the youngest is 20. Both my daughters are twins as well, but there's a 20-minute difference between them. "I thought we were all supposed to be the same thing," my oldest daughter said to me. "I guess you can tell us apart now." "I don't know why we're all different," I said. "I felt that if anything, we'd all be Dalmatians, because with Joe, every male in that family became a lion." (Joe is one of the lions, as you well know by now.) I also have a niece and nephew that got affected, but again, they didn't became the same animal, and wondered why that was so. They ended up as dog breeds I had never even heard of; she's an Eskimo dog now, while he is a Belgian Tervuren. (The family who lives next door to her have a boy and girl as well; he's a Saint Bernard now, while she's a Samoyed. That's another breed I don't know. You learn something every day.) Why did it make us all different dog breeds? Any ideas, or is there no explanation for CNG's behavior? Unacceptable as it was; nothing it ever did benefitted mankind. It was out to destroy all of us because it saw humans the same way the Q in[/i] Star Trek [i]did: the lowest of the lowest of the lowest. You and I both know that this is certainly not the truth. Humanity has fallen short of God's glory and sinned, and the wages of sin is death and eternity in hell. Let's be so thankful the Lord made a way to redeem that when He sent His Son to die in our place. (My entire family is Christian, so we're also baffled as to why CNG still made us dogs. Any ideas on that?) In any case, I appreciate being able to write to you. I look forward to having my whole family (and my brother's neighbors) meet you and the others when we are documented. I also thank the C.I.D.F. for keeping tabs on all of us; you never know what evil force is out to get us next. Sincerely, Fred G. Spafford, age 49 (Dalmatian, formerly human being) Seattle, Washington, USA[/i] ---------- Super C's reply: [color=orange][i]Dear Fred: The only possible theory I can give to you about you all being different dog breeds is that CNG had fallen into a rut at times, and was trying to find ways to break out of the rut. In the end, it never broke out of any rut it was in. It was still trying to erase humanity, even by changing them into animals. There isn't really a good explanation for what CNG did, because it was as heartless as heartless gets. What you have to bear in mind, however, is that while it wanted a new Kriegland, it was wrong about so many things about the actual planet of Kriegland, and it was too stupid to admit that it was wrong. As a result, instead of making all humans in a group the same animal, it thought it was doing something unique by making you and your offspring (and your brother's neighbors' offspring) different dog breeds. Well, it wasn't. The variety comes in the different breeds, yes. But in the end, you're all still dogs, so it didn't really do anything different. We haven't been able to figure out the exact degree of unpredictability because in the end, it was as predictable as it ever was: if you didn't die from the CNG effects (and the majority did, I am sorry to say), then you turned into an animal, and in certain cases, you also got superpowers. Now not everybody who has superpowers qualifies to be a G-52 or ally, and many in both groups (the G-52s and their allies) don't have powers of any kind. But by documenting all who had transformed, it will make it easier for us to do our part in the battle against evil; in return, you've got to do yours. (I salute you for already putting your life on the line as a firefighter.) Other than that theory, I don't have any ideas why it made you all different dog breeds. I do appreciate you writing to me about it, though, so let's keep in touch. We'll talk more once we meet in person and we get you documented. Yours truly, Simon Corrineson, a.k.a. SuperCat (Super C for short) Commanding Officer of the G-52 Organization[/i][/color]
