Wednesday:
The peaceful tower (after the previous night's scuffle between 'Raven' and 'Starfire') was awakened on Wednesday morning by Jinx's horrible wail. "There's something in my bed!"
"You're just imagining it." Liz was wiping the sleepers out of her eyes as she walked into Jinx's room.
"No! There really is something in there!" Jinx had decided to cower behind Liz (yeah, she makes a great shield (scoff)) just outside the door.
"If I check will you just go back to sleep before you wake Karen and we're forced to wake up for good at this un-holy hour?" Liz yawned extra loudly just to emphasize her point.
"What about Holy's hour?" Karen was already making the s-CRY-ed jokes, 'long day coming up' alert.
"There's something in my bed! I think it bit me!" Jinx was still making such a fuss that Liz walked in and pulled back the covers to find…
"This was what you were so scared about?" Liz was pointing down at a little smiling face.
"You were scared of Silkie?" Karen poked Jinx and laughed.
"SILKIE!" Poogle flew by (tearing up the nice carpeting) and grabbed the little grub before anyone could complain. "He's so cute!" (run folks, Poogle gushing over something small-'cute'-and-'furry' is not something you want to see, or rather hear, when you first wake up)
"He's probably hungry, we didn't know he was here so we haven't fed him yet." Reena was already on her way to the kitchen (she's turning into a chef).
"Oh, the poor 'widdle ting!" Poogle was squeezing Silkie so hard his eyes were bulging.
After breakfast, in which Poogle gushed some more over Silkie, they decided to go for a 'walk'. Naturally their destination was the park, but the problem was every time they took three steps, Silkie (who was on a leash attached to Poogle's hand) had to stop and take a bite of something new he'd found (a strange looking rock, part of the sidewalk, a bush, an old bubble gum wrapper, some paper and a flower to be exact). "Come on, can you move any slower?" Jinx had to wait for Poogle and the slow moving Silkie at the entrance to the park. The others just sighed.
"But Silkie's just so excited, I don't think he's ever been to the park before!" Poogle was still smiling.
"And now this thing belongs to Johnny Rancid!" was heard throughout the park.
"Not him again, he's weird." Jinx sighed.
"Hey you! Put Silkie down!" apparently, Johnny loser had grabbed Silkie from Poogle. A wise lesson to everyone and every thing out there, never hurt/kidnap/kill anything small-cute-and-furry when Poogle's nearby, the lucky ones (usually the ones who grab the less cute furry things) sometimes escape with their lives. Sometimes.
"No way, he's gonna be my new pet!" He didn't have the time to say his prayers before Poogle was blasting him with as many Starbolts as she could without risking hurting Silkie.
"There there Silkie, did the big ugly guy hurt you?" Poogle now had the little larva in her arms, still gushing.
"For his sake, we'd probably better get him away from Poogle. You never know when she'll get so angry over something small-cute-and-furry that she'll attack" Reena was nodding to the unconscious (and in pain) Silkie-napper.
