Waking up the next morning, Ozone groaned. He really didn't want to get up. Heck, the sun was barely peeking over the horizon. It was too early to be awake! And yet he had to get over to the apartment building and take care of Tiberius. He really did hate this punishment.
While he was doing his morning stretches, Ozone spotted Nitro coming over towards him. Yawning, he hopped down from his trash can. "I'll see ya later man. I have to take care of the bird," he meowed as he passed his friend. Clearing his throat, Nitro pointed out, "Yeah, about that. Snowball said that you can have the day off. Tiberius wanted to go hunting today while it was nice and warm."
"Oh, he did?" Ozone replied, actually surprised. He also felt a little disappointed about that but he didn't know why. He hated the bird… right? Glancing up at the sky as it grew brighter by the second, he remarked, "Not a bad day I suppose. Think anyone will miss me if I go for a walk?"
"I'll let anyone know if they come looking for you."
"Okay, I'll be back soon."
"Where are you going for your walk, if I might ask?"
"I hear Central Park is a good place for an early morning walk."
