Wally had been looking for Kuki for 2 hours. She was nowhere. Then, he decided to check the most dangerous place in the whole world.
Kacey’s room.
Wally knew that Kacey and Kiki had gone to the skate park. It was safe to go in. Wally had never really been in Kacey’s room before. He’d seen it, stood in the doorway, and even been in the vents above it. (To spy on Kuki and Kacey’s conversation a few months ago) But never before had he been in it. He had heard rumors from Abby that it was booby trapped. But Abby was probably messing with him. He took a deep breath, and he opened the door. It creaked open. He looked inside. It didn’t look like Kuki was in there, but it wouldn’t hurt to look.
Or would it?
Wally put one foot in Kacey’s room. He closed his eyes tight, waiting for the lasers.
Nothing.
Wally sighed a sigh of relief and took another step forward. And another. And another.
He knew for sure that is was safe. He checked under Kacey’s bed. Then in her closet. He even checked in her bathroom.
Kuki was nowhere.
And he just had to face it.
But how could he?
“KUKI!” He yelled. There was a weird scream.
But it wasn’t Kuki’s.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Megan was the screamer.
Now, I bet you’re wondering why she screamed.
I’m getting to that OK?
Anyways:
Megan screamed when she saw Scooter.
But it was a happy scream.
Scooter was in his little ferret scratching-post-like thing. He had poked his head out of the top one.
But that wasn’t all.
A girl ferret appeared out of the second hole. She had a cute little bow next to her ear.
In the last hole, 5 little ferrets appeared. They looked like they were 4 weeks old.
“SCOOTER! You naughty boy!” Megan said. At that moment, Wally came in the room where Megan and Maddy were.
“What happened?” He asked.
“Scooter’s got a girlfriend and 5 kids!” Maddy said. Wally pushed her away to see. The ferret babies were WAY too cute for him. He picked one up, and cuddled it.
“I think I’ll name this one Thrasher.” Wally said.
“Ugh! Do you even know if it’s a boy or a girl?” Megan asked. Wally had a confused look on his face. Megan took the ferret from him, and checked. “It’s a boy.” Wally squealed and took him back.
“THRASHER!” He said. Thrasher dooked and licked Wally’s face.
“I want one!” Maddy said. She picked up the smallest one and cuddled it. “Boy or girl, Megan?” Maddy asked. Megan picked it up. She checked.
“Girl.”
Maddy smiled. “I’ll name her Jean.”
“Why?” Wally asked. Thrasher was taking a nap on his head.
“Because I want to.” Maddy sassed.
“Well then.” Wally grumbled.
Megan picked one ferret up. She had always wanted a ferret. But her parents never let her. She looked at the ferret, and checked its gender. Boy.
“This one’s a boy.” Megan said.
“Name it Clawz! With a ‘Z’ at the end!” Wally said.
“You had your choice of naming one. I get to name this one.” Megan petted the ferret’s head. It almost sounded like he was purring. He dooked, and then spit up. On Megan’s hand. She freaked out. The little ferret flew across the room. Luckily, he landed on a basket full of clothes that used to be Wally’s. Megan wiped the ferret puke from her hand onto Wally and then went to grab the ferret.
“Ew. Ferret vomit.” Wally said. Thrasher crawled down from Wally’s head and licked the ferret puke from Wally’s shoulder. Maddy almost puked herself.
“That’s nasty!” She complained.
“Heh, Thrasher is definitely mine.” Wally said. Megan shuddered.
“I’ve got the name for this little guy!” She said.
“Vomiter?” Wally asked. “With a capital ‘Q?’”
“No, you moron.” Megan said. “Hoagie.”
Maddy and Wally exchanged looks, and then looked at Megan.
“What?” Megan asked. “You guys are looking at me like I’ve gone nuts.”
“Hoagie?” Maddy asked. “Didn’t you just almost make Hoagie, a.k.a. Numbuh 2, cry?”
Wally snickered.
“You guys are right. It’s a dumb name. I’ll just name him Bobby.” Megan said, a little embarassed. Wally shrugged.
“Bobby it is.”
“What about the other two?” Maddy asked. Megan picked the other two up.
“Both girls.”
Wally “Ugh!”ed.
“OK, how about Bella and Fergie?” Maddy asked.
“Those are dumb names.” Wally said. “Let’s name one Chuck Norris, and the other Round-House Kicker.”
“But they’re both girls.” Maddy said.
“Fine. Chuckette Norris, and Round-House Kickerette.” Wally said.
“Idiot.” Maddy muttered.
“Let’s let Kiki and Kacey name them when they get back. Scooter IS Kiki’s.” Megan said.
“Why can’t Kuki name one?” Wally asked.
A snicker from Maddy.
“Kuki said they’re cute, but she’d rather keep a distance.” Megan said.
“Oh.”
“Wait, do we get to keep these?” Maddy asked.
“No, we’re gonna sell them to a woodchuck.” Wally said.
He was bitten by Thrasher.
“Well, Mom and Dad won’t let us. Maybe we could keep them here.” Megan said.
“Are you kidding?” Wally asked. “We’re not gonna keep your ferrets here and take care of them for you! We’re not your servants!”
“I will give you $5.00 in cash if you do all the work.” Megan said.
“Done.” Wally agreed.
And he cheered.
“We’re HOOOOOME!” Kiki yelled from the front door. Megan, Maddy, and Wally heard. But they didn’t hear Hoagie say his usual ‘It’s not your hooouuuse.’ thing. Then, they heard the girls come upstairs.
“I can’t wait to see if Scooter tried his new scratching post.” The three kids in the spare room heard Kiki say.
“Neither can I.” They heard Kacey say unenthusiastically.
Kiki opened the door.
Kiki and Kacey saw Megan, Maddy, and Wally holding baby ferrets while crouched on the ground. They saw Scooter and his girlfriend chasing each other.
Kiki shrieked.
Kacey’s room.
Wally knew that Kacey and Kiki had gone to the skate park. It was safe to go in. Wally had never really been in Kacey’s room before.
