Cats+Hardware=Trouble
"Idiot." Fins muttered to himself, staring at the ceiling. He didn't have much choice.
He'd tried to wake up Mito on time, but it was a hopeless cause. He's finally given up in disgust, and let the kid suffer the consequences.
So Mito had been running around like crazy, trying to get his stuff together in time to make it to the bus. That had been mildly entertaining, but then he'd run out the door... leaving behind his Navi. Fins smirked to himself, taking a certain sadistic pleasure in knowing Mito would miss him when it came time to hand in his homework assignment. It was stored on his Pet.
But that pleasure vanished as he regarded the ceiling blankly, bored. School could be fascinating, especially when he got to trash viruses. This was anything but.
"So damn boring!" There was a sudden snigger from the PC. Mito had forgotten to turn that off, too. "Did he do this a lot to you, Knut?" He asked.
"All the time." The purple Navi said smugly. "And it gets worse."
Fins eyes narrowed, and he was about to ask what Knut meant by that. when his viewpoint suddenly moved. "...?"
"Mew?" Something furry suddenly obscured his view, and then he got a view of something far too wet and organic.
"Don't lick my monitor!" He exclaimed, identifying the intruder as Murtle, Mito's cat. She mewed again, and playfully batted his terminal. He screamed in rage. a scream that was muffled, as he hit the carpet facedown. Knut laughed unpleasantly as the cat knocked around the terminal.
"...Augh!" Fins finally managed to say, when his terminal was knocked rightside up again. "Knut, how do I stop this?!?"
"You don't. You deal with it 'till Mito gets home. Have fun." With a last laugh, he disappeared from the screen, vanishing into the 'Net. Fins screamed again as Murtle sat on him.
"I am NOT going to tolerate this!" He snarled, before placing himself into stasis.
Mito could activate him when he got home.
hr
After school...
Something tugged on Fins awareness, and his monitor flickered. One of his buttons had been pressed.
But, as Fins gazed out, he saw only. suds.
"?!? Mito?" He tried to make out what was there... and his Pet was suddenly lifted out of the sink.
"Fins, I'm so sorry! I totally forgot you! I forgot my homework!" Fins glared, trying to remain patient as Mito babbled on about getting an F in his assignment.
"Why were you washing me?" He cut in coldly, and Mito blushed.
"Uh, well... the cat sort of peed on you... so you were kinda..."
"What?!?" His shriek was piercing, and Mito winced, holding him away.
"Yeah, so I was-"
"That cat is DEAD! D E A D dead! I'm going to take over the house systems! I'll activate the toilet when she's drinking from it! I'll start the drying machine while she's sleeping inside! Ahahahhahahahaa!!!!" Slightly hysterical, enraged laughter echoed through the room.
"Has he lost it?" Knut commented, and Mito flushed.
"FINS! Get a grip!" Mito snapped. "She's just a cat, and you will NOT hurt her! You are my Navi!" Fins glared, but started to calm down a bit.
"Well, I'll make her regret this somehow..." He muttered quietly, then spoke up louder. "Have you almost finished reconstituting the data, Knut?"
"Yeah, although I dunno what you guys want this for." He said, sullen again, and Mito smiled.
"We have a plan, Knut. He might be useful. Let's start the final procedures..."
