NeoPet Pets

by tomatosoup

It had been one week since Exlund the white Lupe had gotten his Cobrall named Korbie. He and the Cobrall were best friends until....

Poor Exlund was frantic looking for his beloved Cobrall, lost for three days. He searched everywhere but Korbie was nowhere in sight. His sharp ears heard something rustle in the bushes, he whirled around to see Korbie. He laughed and raced toward his pet. Suddenly, as soon as Exlund got close to Korbie, it hissed at him. The Lupe thought nothing of it and figured Korbie was playing. He continued forward but Korbie did the most shocking thing the Lupe could think of: He bit him. Exlund yelped softly and felt a sharp pain in his neck. Everything went black.

Exlund woke up in a bed surrounded by doctors and his owner looking down at him. He cocked his head and weakly asked where he was. The doctor Gelert smiled and told him the whole story.

"You see, your pet was lost for a few days and during those days he must have been bitten buy a mutated Kacheek...the ones Dr. Sloth created. You see, the monster Kacheek has a strange poison in him that whatever it bites acts wild and angry forever." Exlund sighed sadly as the doctor continued, "there is a cure...but it costs 30,000 Neopoints. The Lupe knew what he had to do.

He walked towards his joyful owner as she hugged him tightly, she tried to comfort him but it didn't work. Exlund just told the nurse Usul to take Korbie and that his owner and him couldn't afford a cure. The depressed Lupe began to exit when a loud wail was heard behind him. He peered around a corner and saw a red Uni sniffling angrily.

"I told you I wanted an Angelpuss not that hideous thing!!!" she yelled.

"But he is really friendly and...."

The snotty Uni cut her off "Hmph, take it back I don't ever want to see that nasty thing ever again," snarled the little Uni.

Exlund growled and could not believe her ungratefulness. He watched as the tired owner sighed and set a tiny Warf on the ground and gently nudged it away. The little Warf waddled and scurried, hurrying to get away from the noisy Uni.

It stopped when it saw Exlund, it perked its floppy ears. Exlund grinned as the small Warf ran over to him. It yelped with excitement as Exlund hugged it tightly, slowly creeping out of sight from the Uni and her owner. The Warf showered the Lupe with slobbery kisses and Exlund laughed softly.

He noticed a red satin collar around its neck and a gold oval medallion attached that read "Woofers." He grinned and raced Woofers home. His owner was more then happy to let Exlund keep the unwanted Warf. Soon they became best friends and played chase, wrestle, hide and seek and fetch. They always had fun together. Later as Exlund curled up to sleep with little Woofers curled snugly warm next to him, he was glad he had found this new little friend.
