I came to consciousness slowly, my senses returning to me, and I woke up. Unwilling to open my eyes yet, I stretched lazily in the lying position I was in- I happened to be laying on something hard and rough. I swiveled my ears, caught the rustling of leaves surrounding me. I then opened my eyes. I was laying up in a tree, on a wide, sturdy branch. I guess I was taking a nap, I realized. How long had it been since I was at the mansion?? I racked my memory-- last thing I did was to assist Badrak-onii-chan in leaving the mansion. It must've been a couple of days ago.
Grumble, grumble.
Gah!! I was hungry! Well, time to go back to the mansion and see what's to eat, I thought, my mind already filled with thoughts of food and my mouth starting to salivate. I adjusted my position on the branch and looked below me. I wasn't that high up, there were only a couple of branches between me and the ground. Climbing a tree is always easy for me, but, as you guessed, the hard part is coming back down. Lowering myself onto the next lower branch, I looked across the surrounding landscape, looking for the mansion. Finally I saw a glimpse of it-- on the far side of the clearing. My tree was on the outskirts of the surrounding forest.
I hit the ground lightly, landing on the balls of my feet and taking the shock into my heels like felines do, and started off towards the mansion. I looked up at the sky and saw the dark clouds of a storm approaching me, already raining onto the mansion. Great. I hate getting rained on, nya. I ducked my head and started running toward the closest face of the mansion. As i neared it, I caught the electric current in the air that signaled that electric attacks were fast and flying. Sparks were coming up from the other side of the mansion.
When I got into the mansion, I immediately gasped in shock. What happened here?! It was messier than--
"...f*cking Mamoswine sty..." I heard a voice mutter. With a tone like that, it could only be Lupe-sama's! She rounded a corner and came face to face with me. My ears lowered, ready for a lecture or something, and I said, forcibly carefree, "Konnichiwa, Lupe-sama!"
"What are you standing like that in this house, boy? Can't you see this place needs a good cleaning?" she grumbled with a ticked expression on her face. "you're gonna help me clean this dump."
My stomach grumbled louder this time, and I started to protest, "but I'm--"
"No buts!!" she practically yelled, and grabbed me by the hand and started dragging me toward the kitchen. "You hear me good, catboy. We, and whoever else we come upon, will clean this mansion top-to-bottom." she opened the door to the kitchen. "we'll start with the--
The kitchen was spotless, and actually shining it was so clean. There were two new gijinkas I had never seen before seated at a table, one eating ramen noodles, a Tangrowth I think, with long, long dreadlocks of hair that seemed to move on their own....creepy! The other, a girl, wore darkish clothes and had a fin on the back of her head. Hard to tell which aquatic Pokemon she was. The Tangrowth spoke up.
"Hey, Lupe! Look, I tidied up the kitchen!" he gestured around him. Apparently, that wasn't quite enough.
I guess he hoped to quell the wrath of the bunny.
"Well then, after you finish eating, all four of us are going to clean the mansion. No objections."
I took that opportunity to speak up. "ano... Lupe-sama, I'm really hungry, so can I eat too? Then I'll join you in your work, nya."
She folded her arms with a cross expression on her face, but gave me an affirmative. I hurriedly ate my way through a stash of Poffins and gulped down a glass of chocolate milk, then, satisfied, stood up and at attention dutifully. "Ready when you are, Nya! Let's get cleaning!" I chirped brightly.
