Super Squirrel:  Super Referee

Sally Acorn was with the cheerleading squad cheering for the Knothole High basketball team, as they were practicing.  Jeremy Crimson was a part of the team, as he was shooting hoops.

"Man, Jeremy, you are awesome," one player, a male raccoon, said.

"Yeah, with your skills, we can beat Station Square," another player, a male dalmation, said.

"It's not just on me.  We have to work as a team," Jeremy said.

However, in a mansion, an evil rat was talking with one of the Knothole High players.

"You wanted to see me," the player, a male rat said.

"You bet.  I want you to throw the game.  I have too many people betting in favor of Station Square, and I decided to fix the game," the rat said.

"Ooh, another game to rig?  That means more money," the rat said.

"You bet, and don't worry, I paid off one of the referees to make sure no one gets wiser," the rat, named Vermon Provalone, said.

At the game, Sally was leading the cheerleaders when they saw the Knothole High Knights team failing, as the male cat decided to ignore the warnings, another player, a male rat, messes up intentionally.  Sally suspects something is amiss and sneaks into the boy's locker room, where she listens to the coach.

"Listen, we are not doing well.  Jeremy Crimson has done all the work so far, and even he is getting fed up of doing the work.  We need to do a better job in the second half," the coach said.  As the team went out, Sally grabbed the mouse, knocked him out, and dragged him into the showers.  Then, as she snuck out, she saw the referee, a male jaguar, on the phone.

"Yes, try to get Jeremy fouled out of the game," the referee said.  Sally used her super breath to blow the whistle to her, and as the referee picked it up, so did she.

"So, you're trying to fix a game," Sally said.

"How did you know what I was doing," the referee asked.

"I can't share my trade secret, but if you start a new life and never referee another game again, I won't tell the school about it," Sally said.

"Deal.  I wanted to retire anyway," the referee said as he ran away.  Afterward, Sally took the whistle and went into the girl's locker room.

"Super Squirrel time," Sally said as she got her socks and shoes out, and took off her cheerleader uniform, revealing her red tights and blue bra.  After getting her Super Squirrel shirt, boots and cape on, she put the whistle over her neck as she walked into the arena, as the kids watching cheered for her.

"Student, ladies, and gentlemen, forgive the intrusion.  The referee could not continue, he has a crook in his back," Super Squirrel said, causing the crowd to wonder.

"Since I have a reputation for fairness and I'm fast on my feet, I am volunteering to referee the remainder of the game," Super Squirrel said, as everyone cheered.

"Are there any objections from the coaches or the players," Super Squirrel said.  As she saw Jeremy shake his head with the others, as she knew he always told her to be fair when ruling over a game, she smiled as she blew the whistle and the game began.

She was an excellent referee.  She made sure both teams played fair, and called the fouls as they were.

At the remaining eleven seconds, a thug was seen coming down with a manila folder.  Super Squirrel passed the ball to Jeremy, who caught it was the thug dropped the folder, and Super Squirrel used her X-Ray vision to see it was a photo of her and Jeremy in the alley becoming Super Squrrel and Super Fox.  She then used her heat vision to burn the pictures, as the thug got them and got the fire out, as Super Squirrel grabbed him.

"Must be some hot pictures," Super Squirrel said as he let him go.  Jeremy got the final shot in at the buzzer as Knothole High won.

Later, Super Squirrel and Super Fox paid a visit to Vermon, as he was shocked to see them enter his office.

"What?  You two," Vermon asked.

"Thankfully, we got the info out of your player and thug.  You tried to fix the game, and when you were failing, you tried to slander Jeremy Crimson's reputation," Super Squirrel said.

"You were saying he was me," Super Fox said as he grabbed Vermon by the neck.

"What, there's no hard feelings, right?  I mean, it's just business," Vermon said.

"Well, let's just say we're putting an end to your sports gambling business, since the referee was kind enough to give us evidence in exhange for dropped charges," Super Squirrel said as the two took him away.

That night, the two heroes sat on a billboard looking at the full moon.

"Super Squirrel, thanks for being a fair referee.  It really makes the game the way it should," Super Fox said.

"No problem, Super Fox.  You always told me it was good to be fair," Super Squirrel said as the two shared a kiss
