A/N

I know I should be working on my other fics but today I was working on things and I was thinking about my OC Kass from my fic Missing His Nemesis and I wanted to write a fic centred around her.

In this, Kass is in a human orphanage and wants a family but after days and months of nobody wanting her, a certain turquise furred male comes to adopt her and brings her to DEI to live with him and Doofy as they couldn't have a child.

I know I stated that Monogram adopted her, I perfer the idea of Perry and Doof adopting her instead.

They're a good fit for her.

It's about family and belonging.

Kass sighed as she sat on her bed in the orphanage as it was raining outside.

She was nine years old and was a platypus but she had jet black fur, green eyes, slender with a beaver like tail but she knew that the other kids were human but was lonely as none of the other kids wanted to share a room with her but she didn't care.

She'd been found on the doorstep of the orphanage by the owner and had ben living there for the last nine years and had a secret wish.

She wanted to be adopted by a family who would care about and accept her for who she is but knew that other humans wouldn't want her so she decided to read after hearing it was Adoption Day but just stayed in her room.

She smiled seeing her fairytale books as she reached for her favourite one The Ugly Duckling knowing how he felt as nobody wanted him until his family heard him crying and he found where he belonged as she was listening to the radio as it calmed her down on days like this.

She saw kids leaving with their new families but blinked the tears away from her turquise eyes knowing that one day, anyday soon, she'd be leaving this place and going to live with a family but after reading for a while, she was tired and took an nap but made a wish that her new family would come soon...

Meanwhile Perry was leaving DEI as he was going to the orphange to adopt a child for him and Doof as he knew that he and Doof wanted a family but couldn't have one naturally which had bummed Doof out but Perry explained that they still could have a family if they adopted a child and Doof liked the idea and told him to go see if there were any he liked and then come back and tell him.

He knew that there would be a kid that suited their family with their lifestyle as he was a part time agent but still on sick line as Monogram said they could handle things without him for a while longer but he sighed.

He then arrived at the Danville Orphanage and entered as he then was shown to Kass's room as Tiana knocked on the girl's door but no answer as Perry was prepared to open it using a judo kick but saw her open it using a key as they saw she was asleep but Perry gasped in awe seeing the platypus youngster and had a feeling she was perfect for him and Doof but smiled seeing the Ugly Duckling book but heard her talking in her sleep as they decided not to wake her up but he went to Tiana's office so they could talk.

"Her name's Kass?" Perry asked.

Tiana nodded in reply to him.

"Yes it's short for Kassi." she answered.

"H-How did she come here?" Perry asked her.

"I found her on the doorstep during a stormy night and couldn't bear to leave her out on the streets and I took her in but nobody wants to adopt a platypi girl.

I know she's perfect for you.

You want to go through the paperwork?" Tiana asked.

"I need to speak to my partner but I'll get back to you tomorrow okay?" he said.

She nodded in reply.

"Of course." Tiana answered.

Perry then left the orphanage.

On the way home, he couldn't get the image of Kass out of his mind as he felt bad for her especially hearing her parents abandoned her but Doof wondered why his little nemesis was so quiet during dinner.

"I-I found the perfect kid for us to adopt.

Her name is Kass." he said.

He then decided not to show her the photo of Kass until they returned to the orphanage in the morning as Doof was very curious hearing this from Perry.

He'd just have to wait until tomorrow...

Later that night after dinner, Kass was in her room playing by herself and playing out a fairytale she'd made up in her head and having fun but inside, she was nervous after Miss Tiana had told her that a family might want to adopt her because she knew at first glance, they'd reject her like all the others but didn't want to think about it as they would come in the morning and she hugged something close to her.

It was a stuffed platypus she'd made for herself to be her friend and comfort her when she was sad like right now but she hoped things would go okay but felt tears well up in her eyes remembering the rejection she'd faced from other parents who'd wanted to adopt her but then rejected her finding she wasn't like them.

She then realised it was late as she climbed onto her bed with her doll in her arms.

"Maybe this time will be different Lana." she said crying herself to sleep...
