From Cake153's dev, Slug
Soon the ship landed near the closest fueling station and everyone was settling down there till the ships repair.
This was going to take three days.
Emily decided she needed some time to think.
After what happened with the voice, she was not sure what to do, she felt so lost.
Then she heard an animal crying for help.
"CHEE!" The creature screeched as something rustled through the bushes.
Emily got ready for a fight, but then a pink slug ran as fast as it could and hid behind Emily.
"Huh?" The red red wondered as she knead down to look at the injured slug.
"A slug?" Emily wondered as she touched the injury.
But then, a reptile bird came out of the sky with hunger.
The slug screamed as it curled up in a ball.
"Hey! Step off! Leave him alone!" Emily shouted as she zapped the bird, casing it to fled.
The slug came out of his ball like state and stared at the stonekeeper.
"That taught him some manners.
You'll be fine now, you could go home." Emily smiled as she patted the smooth creature then left for the ship.
But then she heard the slug coming from behind her.
She turn to see the cute thing biting the end of her cape playfully.
"Sorry, little guy.
But I can't play right now." The red head sighed as she kept walking.
But the creature got on her leg and crawled on her shoulder.
"I don't think Enzo would like a pet on the ship." Emily removed the slug and look at him.
But then it gave her the puppy eyes.
"Why do you have to do that?
Fine you win, but you'll need a name.
How about Steve?" The ginger haired girl suggest as the slug yelp with joy.
"You're too cute." Emily giggled as she headed back to the ship.
When she returned she cradled Steve in her arms.
"Emily, there you are.
We were worried sick and what is that in your arms" Miskit worried.
"Oh! this is Steve.
I saved him from the reptile birds and he needed some healing." Emily answered as she petted her pet.
"I not sure you should keep him.
What if he's diseased or poisonous or-" But the robotic rabbit was cut off by Steve licking him in the face.
Miskit laughed as it tickled him.
"I guessed he can't do any harm." Miskit smiled as he petted the cute thing.
It purred cutely by the attention.
"Come on, let's head back to the ship.
Steve might be hungry." Emily smiled as she cooed her slug like it was a baby.
When trellis saw the cute thing and had a large grin on his face.
"Emily, you got us a delicacy of pink slug.
Let's fry him up." The elf prince smiled as he try to grabbed the now scared slug.
But then he was slapped by Emily.
"You can't eat Steve.
He's my pet." Emily protested as she hid Steve away.
"But he's food, not a pet.
He needs to be grilled and seasoned." Trellis protested.
"You can't eat Steve!
If you even try to take a bite out of him, you'll never eat again." Emily threatened as she cradled her pet and headed to the ship. *Darn.* The elf prince thought.
