the time everyone left for the day.
"so, Dawkins, what the plan for today?" Da Vinci asked.
"I don't know, I was just going to spend most of the time tinkering with the stroking machine, try and make automatic." He said, "but I guess I can go around making sure everyone is happy." He said, "along with some cleaning if Dylan not around." Dawkins said leaving.
"what about me, Dylan put both of us in charge." She said.
"well Dolly is supposed to help Dylan, and she hardly doses anything. If you want you can help do some cleaning. And if we have time, do you want to mess with the stroking machine." he said.
"well, my project was ruined." She said then looked at Dawkins.
Dawkins started blushing, "yes, sorry again about that. And about…" he was interrupted
"so, I guess I have time." She said. "I say we should start by washing the bowls." She then started walking to the kitchen.
"yes right." He said.
As they were washing the bowls, Dawkins washing then Da Vinci dries. Then Da Vinci had a thought, "hey Dawkins, what are Dylan and everyone going to use to eat their lunch if there not coming home?"
Dawkins stopped washing and thought it over. "um…I guess we should add some bowls to their order before they push the button." He said.
"and what will they do once there done?"
Dawkins opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out. He was just opening and closing his mouth multiple times. Then finally Dawkins pulled out his tablet and started pushing buttons. "ok, so I just set an alert for when they place their order, I will then cancel…"
"then how will they get their food?"
"I just ordered a drone strong enough carry dog food, so then when I get their alert we can send it to then." He said then continued to wash dishes. (AN. I have no clue if drones are being used in the UK, they say they are testing it, but have no clue.)
They spent a few more minutes washing the dishes and when they were don't there was a ding from the tablet.
"oh, it should be here soon. Let's wait outside." he said.
"that didn't take long." she said.
"I paid extra for rush delivery." He then walked outside into the back yard and waited.
"don't we need something else; you know to use a drone. A license for something?"
"well yes, but this is just a quick run. We should be done before anyone notices. Besides, humans are looking down so much, there not going to notice a drone came and go." He said.
"we if it wasn't for a human-looking up, who knows how long we would have been lost at sea, or worth?" she said.
"yes, I know." Dawkins said, then turned to a howl in the wall, in there was Princess Positron eyeball. 'but they didn't come in time.'
Da Vinci looked to where Dawkins was looking, she's seen what's in there, 'I'm so sorry, there was nothing we could have done.' She thought, then there was a buzz in the air. "that must be it."
They looked up and saw drone coming with a box under it, it flew close by, looking like it was about to land, and then a box fell out of it lightly, then flow away. "ok let's see what we got?" Dawkins said opening up and pulling out everything. It was in pieces.
"assembly required?" she said more than asked.
"well yes, it supposed to be as big as the one that just left, so yes, assembling is required." He said. Da Vinci noticed that the shell was plain white. She then grabbed then without think and with the small supply of paints in her bandana, she started painting black spots all over them.
"um, what are you doing?" he asked.
"hum?" she said, then saw what she was doing, "oh sorry. I don't know what came over me." She said about to wipe off the paint.
"it's fine." He said and just started assembling the drone, "this why its special to us." He said grabbing some of the pieces she painted and attached them, luckily the drone came with tools and put everything he needed to put it together.
"Just be careful, the paint may be thin, but some of them are still wet." She said finishing off the last one.
"I'm fine, even if I did get some on me, it'll match the rest of my spots." He said almost done with making the drone. "him?" he said paying attention to the parts she painted after finishing putting it all together.
"what is it?" she asked looking at the drown, thinking something was wrong.
"oh, no, it's nothing. I just had a feeling I've seen this before. The spots, not the drone, I just can't quite put my paw on it." he said.
"there's 101 of us, it could be from anyone." She said.
"no, no, no. I mean I remember seeing this before online, from some old painter." Dawkins then pulled out his pad and started searching.
"why were you looking up artworks?" Da Vinci said suspiciously.
"It just popped up in my feed not too long ago, so I took a look." He said still looking, "and here it is." He said showing her.
"'Lars 'The Genius' passes peacefully in his sleep, in his honor The National Gallery in London will be showing his works, as well as ones when he was an undiscovered talent, such as these.'" Da Vinci read, then saw a painting, and it did look like what she painted. "wow."
"yeah, and this had a few old articles attached to it. This one really caught my eye." Dawkins said clicking a link.
What popped up surprised her, "'tv dog and pup save famous 101' what but." She then scrolled down and saw a pitcher of, "Great-great-great-grandma and grandpa, wow?"
"yes, I know, and then I when even father and found this." She pulled up a video.
After watching it, "just how famous is our family?" she said, then went back to Lars's page and just scrolled throw his art. "I mean I knew they were 101, but this?" she said
"who's to know. after doing more research, I found that we're the only other generation to have 101 in the family. So, it hard to tell just how closely related, 'we' are, considering not all ninety-nine were related." Dawkins said still messing with the drown, "can I have the tablet back, I need to pair the drown and do some collaboration. You can go look over everyone if you want, I'll be here for a bit." He said the drown then booted up give some weird noises.
"no, I'm invested in this now and have to see what happens." She said taking a seat right next to him.
"ok, then let's begin pairing." He said hooking up his tablet to a controller, "ok we have visual." He said seeing him and Da Vinci on the tablet. Then the drown slowly took off, "we have lift off. And now…" he hit a joystick, but nothing. "what?" he hit it again, but nothing, "come on." He said just strangling both joysticks, "why won't you work!"
"Why don't you try turning it off and on again?" Da Vinci said.
"I'll try." He said about to turn it off when the drown then came to life. "oh look, maybe it was just processing because it was just turned on." He said.
"then why is it moving when you're not touching the controls?" she said taking a few steps back.
"oh well, that is a good…AH!" he said ducking as the drone dived bombed Dawkins.
"you ok?" she asked.
"yes, I'm fine." He said getting up, "DA VINCI WATCH OUT!" he said seeing the drone dive bomb for her.
"hum?" she turned and saw it coming, "AAHH!" she yelled, she then felt someone tackled her to the ground and rolled around for a bit. When she opened her eyes because she closed then for fear of getting hit, she saw Dawkins on top of her.
"enough is enough." He said and then hitting the kill switch on the tablet making the drown stop in midair and then slowly start to land. "you ok." Dawkins asked after seeing the drown touch down and turn off.
"hum, oh yeah, yeah, just fine." She said blushing.
Dawkins realized just the position they were in and got off, "I am so sorry, I didn't mean to do that again." He said blushing as while.
"no, no, it's fine." She said sitting up. "so, are you going to try again?"
"hum?...oh, right. I should get it ready." He said turning the drone back on. He then got in front of Da Vinci while doing so. He got to flying, "ok let's take it slow." He said while slowly moving the joystick. This time it actually flowed where he wanted to go. "ok this looks promising." He said flying around.
"it's not going to start attacking again, is it?" she said leaning on Dawkins to take a look.
"no, looks like it fine now. Must likely, it picked up a different Wi-Fi, while it was booting up. Looks like that didn't happen again. So, I think it's all fine now." He said landing the drone and turning it off. "So, let's continue with our chores."
"Yeah, lets." She said jumping off Dawkins back.
"now we need to wait for Dylan's call." He said walking back in.
"yeah." She said walking by his side.
And there you have it. what do you all think? This was my backup chapter, now I don't know how the rest of the chapters are going to be because I had then ready and could change then when I needed. Oh well.
