Black Cats

"They're cute, yet still make me want to shoot them. It wouldn't even work anyways,"~Splinter
Black Cats (designated as C8-005), are an anomalous group of small black kittens that do not seem to age or take any physical damage by normal means as far as testing has allowed it, found and contained by Jailbird Squadron of the Overseer Division currently held inside Overlord Association Headquarters' west containment wing and being monitored by TOA High Command. Black Cats require at least 20 heat pats per day (defined as 00:00 in military time) or will cause Finalversal scale damage and are usually quite docile and are non-aggressive until they become angry which only usually happens when their affection needs aren't met by the TOA personnel at the facility they're in where said personnel would probably cease to exist. While operatives have attempted to damage Black Cats in several ways utilizing weapons and chemicals during controlled testing, the only way to calm any one of the Black Cats after becoming enraged would be to fulfill the 20 head pat quota, wait until the next day, or must be knocked unconscious via a sleeping agent and testing has shown them to be impervious to most kind's of TOA branded ammunition, burning, slashing or piercing damage, bludgeoning, extreme temperatures, acids, chemical agents, and cognitohazardous substances. At this time, TOA High Command 'Athena', has asked the other members of High Command to allow Black Cats numbers one and two (C8-005-1 and C8-005-2) to be released from their containment areas and to be her house pets though the other members are reluctant to allow anomalies of such dangerous properties outside of active monitoring. When Black Cats become "angry" and enter an enraged state, one of two things will happen. The first option (C8-005-RAGE-EVENT-A) is that all Black Cats that haven't received their heat pat quota will exude an aura of severe dissatisfaction before glowing red and screaming at a pitch so loud and high that all substances in a quarter Finalverse radius will suffer from permanent hearing loss via eardrum rupturing, or the angered Black Cat/s begin to restructure reality around to the point of complete destabilization of local dimensional fields and destruction/amalgamation of all non-biological and biological substances (C8-005-RAGE-EVENT-B) in a radius that can vary but averages at around 542 km.

C8-005-1 was the first of the Black Cats to be discovered by Overseer operatives and was found sleeping underneath the ceiling of a building that appeared to have been inverted and flipped due to the reality restructuring powers of Black Cats by Jailbird Squadron operatives Splinter and Knight after searching the affected area for survivors and the cause of all the destruction. C8-005-1 was able to be recognized as the cause of the damage by Splinter's dimensional instability sensor spiking when close to C8-005-1 and immediately activated his portable reality stabilizer, returning reality back to its original state while simultaneously disabling its reality altering powers for the duration of his reality stabilizer's charge. C8-005-01 was then lightly picked up by Knight and put inside a time-stasising reality pocket cage and warped back to TOA containment specialists at the site, where it would then be transported back to a temporary containment site which was Site Gamma-4.
5 hours after arriving at Site Gamma-4 at 16:42, C8-005-1 woke up in its containment cell and simply wandered around it's cell, occasionally meowing and scratching at the concrete walls without seeming to do anything harmful. At this point, an operative entered the cell and stood touching the wall with his back and began recording via a body cam at the same time C8-005-1 walked towards him before nuzzling his right foot with its face. The operative then crouched to the small animal's level and repeatedly pat its head approximately 22 times and ran his hand down the cat's back several times before standing back up and keeping watch over C8-005-1, occasionally bending down to scratch its ears and let it play with his finger. At 22:21, C8-005-1 had moved from next to the operative watching, to one of the corners of the cell before curling into a ball and began to fall asleep almost instantly after settling down on the ground. 20 minutes after the small kitten fell asleep, the operative left the room and returned to the monitoring room before proposing that the anomaly be given more comfortable accommodations more suited for a cat. During the time C8-005-1 was asleep, the monitoring team decided upon the cat's name which was decided to be Milky or Milk if they felt like it because of the small white stripe of fur along its back and also was found to be male before the monitoring team, (seeing that nothing detrimental had happened yet) decided that Milk would be classified as a Class 5 entity due to the fact that he was the main cause of almost country-wide sized restructuring of reality.
While all this was happening to Milk, the other three C8-005 anomalies were found in the neighboring blocks of the scrambled city they were previously residing within and were subsequently transported to Site Gamma-4 by the Overseers although being put inside separate cells from one another. Since the other three cats hadn't had any of their head pats however they initiated the second option of attempting to restructure reality but luckily were halted in their efforts by the numerous reality anchors surrounding the walls of their cells before they too fell asleep inside their own cell. The monitoring and containment teams watching noticed that only Milk, who had been playing with the operative before hadn't done anything while the other three had attempted to scramble reality and decided to send the same operative to all four C8-005 anomalies instead of only Milk. Surprisingly, none of them tried to escape or use reality bending or any other kind of power to break containment and the monitoring team in charge of the C8-005 (back then called C5-4280) case file gave control of possible containment measures apart from reality anchoring the anomalies to the operative seemingly more successful in containing the cats than the containment specialists. They only however, ordered routine operatives to enter the cells and give them enough affection until they seemed happy and to do maintenance on the reality anchors incase they did in-fact, try to breach except that they didn't and they instead just wandered around their cells and seemed to enjoy the new attention from TOA. The operative stated in the file's interview record: "Even if they are of anomalous properties, they're still cats deep down and won't attack unless we attack them first. Either that or, we've just gotten lucky up until now and they're just waiting to breach containment," And their statement was repeated by most other operatives in charge of the C5-4280 case while others wanted to increase measures just in-case they did try to breach. The cycle of feeding and giving affection to the four cats would continue to the point where they eventually would be allowed to stay in the same containment cell and the monitoring team would often laugh when seeing the kittens run around, climb objects, and play-fight in their cell and the case was going to be considered closed until what would be known as the C5-4280 Re-Classification Event.
During the extremely early morning hours at Site Gamma-4, at approximately 02:42, it suffered a targeted containment breach by the hands of the UCN destroying the containment measures of C7-324, C7-004, C7-417, C6-1000, and C6-1521 allowing them to easily breach containment and start causing mass destruction around the site, inadvertently causing even more containment breaches and caused a site-wide lockdown and for A.E.G.I.S. (Armed Extinction of Groups of Interest and Supernaturals) Protocol to be activated. A.E.G.I.S. Protocol was activated because Site Gamma-4 was mostly underground and the ACTs required for containing a majority of the anomalies held at Site Gamma-4 couldn't bring their equipment down the elevator shafts and narrow tunnels that lead to the entrances of the site and thus they sent in the only two ACTs that were on-scene and could actually do something (Alpha-1 and Alpha-4) and 4th Division unit Gamma-12 'Caver's Nightmare' to eliminate any non-vital anomalies/UCN members and recover any high-priority anomalies and personnel. About 16 hours later the TOA operatives were sent in, only a few select members of Alpha-4 and a few less Alpha-1 operatives since they entered exited the facility's emergency exit tunnel with Gamma-12 nowhere to be found and authorization to commence superbombing of the universe was considered by TOA High Command who worried if the situation wasn't settled soon they'd have to pull in operatives from other sites which would make the UCN have a larger foothold in places it didn't have any. 2 hours latter only 4 members of Gamma-12 appeared with severe injuries and mutilations and the command to commence superbombing was seeming better since everyone still alive and accounted for were now evacuated however, they held back one more hour incase they missed something and that something was the Black Cats.
All four Black Cats initiated a C8-005-RAGE-EVENT-A and the resulting casualty count was more than an estimated 400000000000000 lifeforms dying and resulted in the deaths of all the operatives on-site at the time including the rest of Alpha-1, most of Alpha-4, and 3 out of the 4 remaining Gamma-12 unit as well as the destruction of Site Gamma-4 and any other neighboring sites or outposts in the general vicinity of the area and a few anomalies. The quarter Finalverse radius hearing damage however was luckily halted by ACT Gamma-3 'Radio Silence' who were about a 24 minute ETA away from the perimeter zone via T-COPTER to halt any sound-based anomalies that might escape the chaos-filled facility (mainly C7-004) since there wasn't a warp anchor for them to use to use warping technology, when the blast went off and their sensors picked up the incoming sound waves and their suits automatically released a FTL speed sound-cancelling pulse eliminating a majority of the possible damage. C5-4280 was identified as the cause after reviewing footage from the security cams automated recording data banks showing the four anomalous kittens glow a dim shade of red before opening their mouths and the footage immediately cutting off afterwards and both ACT Gamma-3 and Jailbird Squadron were sent in to the destroyed remains to find all C5-4280 specimens to be at the center of the annihilated chunk of the material plane they were on. The two teams then immediately reality-pocketed all four kittens and instead of sending them to a containment site this time, they sent them straight back to the Overlord Association Headquarters where there were kept inside one of the west containment wing's cells specialized for keeping sound-based anomalies at bay with a few reality anchors on the outside.
TOA High Command re-opened C5-4280's case file and the first declared action was of course the Re-Classification Order: "C5-4280 'Black Cats', are to be re-classified to a higher entity class of 8 with containment protocols to be raised to appropriate levels in accordance," C5-4280 was no more, C8-005 was now the newest C8 anomaly to be contained by TOA agents and with the other C8 anomalies is kept in maximum security cells or sites dedicated for them alone. They were now all separated from each other with each cell being fully coated in sound-cancelling materials as well as a now permanent 12 armed personnel team constantly patrolling the cells and a built in lockdown protocol that closes every single door, window, or gate in the west containment wing, activates Omega Protocol, and alerts every single nearby ACT and task force unit in a superverse radius. If needed, the emergency Singularity Core would be detonated consuming the entire section of the facility in a blinding white sphere of consuming nothingness. Of course, this was before they even discovered the containment method of simply giving them headpats until they were happy which was a fairly moderate number of 20 headpats per day and most of the extra containment measures weren't needed at all and the only thing remotely close to being acceptable was the 12 armed guards to be patrolling at all times.
