"Folon! Dammit where are you?" Ayme cursed as she pounded a wall angrily, which only hurt her fist. She had been searching for over an hour, and hadn't found the blue man or his stupid cat. Though she refused to admit it, she was extremely worried for him, and continued jogging through the streets. She was pretty sure she had gone through the whole of Alfard by now, so she broadened her search, going outside the city, and doing the best to ignore the throbbing pain in her leg.
"Where the hell has he got to?" She muttered to herself. "He can't have gone far, surely." She was just considering turning back when a loud noise reached her ears, a savage barking and growling just ahead. Pushing herself to run, she got round the corner as fast as she could, and skidded to a halt as she saw the scene before her. 3 ceratobus (the volcano dog things that live in the lava cave) were chasing something small and scrawny, and as she looked closer, she saw it had grey fur. That was all she needed to know. Loading her sniper guns, she ran forward.
"Sorry guys, but the fun's over." She ordered. "Chase something your own size." The ceratobus instantly turned towards her, snarling, and she readied herself for battle. She sized up the nearest one, and launched into a long chain combo of her attacks, a final kick to the head sending it reeling backwards, slightly stunned. A different one leapt forward, but she blocked in time, and retorted with two punches, and a brutal upwards kick. However, she didn't see the final one circling behind her. It knocked her to the ground, catching her by surprise, and she yelled in pain as it's full weight landed on her injured leg.
"Get…off!" She grunted, pushing both fists upward as hard as she could, and managing to knock the slobbery monster away, before clambering to her feet again.
"Enough of this. Crazy rabbit!" She released a wide array of bullets, hitting the first one, which was just recovering from it's stun, and successfully killing it. The other two both managed to block, and again came forward. She hit one away, but the second sank it's teeth into her arm. Gritting her teeth, she punched it between the eyes, forcing it to release her, before shoving her gun in its open mouth, and firing. The monster slumped to the ground, defeated. Panting, she turned to the last one, to find it chasing after Smoky. The exhausted kitten tripped, too tired to continue running, and watched with wide eyes as the fiery dog closed in on him.
"Chaotic ice!" Ayme yelled desperately, releasing all her energy in the final attack, and managing to freeze the dog seconds before it collided with the kitten. She slumped to her knees, vision darkening, but managed to raise her gun, firing one last shot through the creatures head, killing it. That done, she finally allowed herself to give in to the pain, and darkness took her.
She woke to a rythmic purring sound, and pushed open her eyes with some effort. Smoky was draped around her neck, eyes closed, and she was lying on the sofa, her arm bandaged. She stirred, Smoky giving a meow of protest at being woken, as slowly she remembered what happened.
"So I guess this means I'm supposed to forgive you now, huh?" She said sharply to the grey bundle of fur, still purring heavily, then felt a small twinge as those big green eyes turned upon her.
"Fine, whatever." She snapped. "Just don't break anything else, or your out, you got that?" The cat snuggled back under her chin, and closed his eyes again.
"Ayme! Your awake!" Folon dashed into the room cheerfully. "I'm so happy you found Smoky! I looked everywhere, but couldn't find him."
"Yeah, well it was just to stop you whining, that's all." The magenta haired woman sniffed grumpily. Folon merely grinned his idiotic grin.
"Guess what!" He exclaimed. "You'll never guess what was in that box Lyude gave us. Your going to love it, I promise."
"Isn't that what you said last time?" Ayme looked worried. "This better not be another stupid cat Folon, I'm warning you."
"No of course not." The blue skinned man smiled, and Ayme gave a sigh of relief.
"Then what is it? Tell me already!" She lost her patience, visions of a new, gleaming sniper rifle floating in her mind. Just then, a yapping bark brought her out of her fantasies roughly. "Folon, what made that noise?" She asked cautiously. Her question was answered when about 5 fluffpups poured into the room, all of them completely hyper. Smoky hissed violently, as they chased each other round the room, knocking over a lamp in the process, where it smashed to the floor.
"Aren't they great?" Folon gushed. "I'm calling this one Fluffy, and this one Puppy, and this ones Spot. What do you think I should name this one? How about Fifi?"
"This cannot be happening." Ayme looked horrified, massaging her temples as her partner babbled on. "What a nightmare." Smoky meowed his agreement, and she looked surprised, glancing down at him.
"Well how about that." She commented. "We actually agreed on something. That's new." She smiled before closing her eyes again, ignoring the chaos around her.
"Maybe I am a cat person after all. But Fluffpups? No way." Smoky gave one more sleepy meow, and went back to sleep, Folon still talking excitedly about what to name the fluffpups as they tore round the house. Ayme smiled lazily again as there was a loud smash upstairs. He could sort it out.
