"Hope For New:Part Three" by hazelsmartotop
"How did you...Toto….but Melissa…I thought that..." I had so many questions, and I couldn’t finish a single one. "I knew you had a backstory, so I went back to the pound and asked Merisol a few questions, which, believe me, she wasn’t so eager to answer. I tracked down Melissa and asked if she had a Neopet named Toto. She was shocked that I figured it out, and wanted to know why I asked. Trust me, it took a while to explain." Cherrie laughed. "Melissa said I could have Toto if I wanted, and paid a price—A large one, mind you. Toto took his books and Altachuck with him. And guess who else is here?" A teeny tiny croak was heard from behind Toto. "Milky? Milk Milk?" I was astonished. Milk hopped out from behind Toto and over to me and rubbed at my leg. "Melissa is so CRUEL! When I left I could already hear her calling the pound to see if they had any available animals. That stupid RUBY has been invading my personal space ever since he arrived, so I’m almost glad to be gone." Ruby had found his way to Melissa? It really is a small world. "Wow," I couldn’t speak. Everything was spinning and it was all hard to process, so I took a step back."You know what we should do?" Toto had a mischievous look in his eye. "Go to the Pizzaroo to CELEBRATE!!!" We shared a laugh; even Cherrie, although she didn’t know what we were laughing about, and we actually did go to the Pizzaroo. Milk got milk, Purrr got milk, Cherrie got pizza, Toto got pizza, and I got pizza.
