Re: [JMC_Blue_Dwarf] Niples + Katrina \"Double crossing\"
<< DK took a rudimentary-looking scanner from her pocket and plugged a loose
wire attached to it into Seymour's work computer. An image came up on screen
of a corridor, the one outside in fact. The bomb attached to PITA had a built
in camera which allowed DK to see where it was headed.
She sat back and watched the show, with her finger hovering the big red
button on her scanner marked "DETONATE".>>
-----------------------------------------------
Regular blond, yet completely naive Katrina Swete wiped the foam from her
face. Again. Dark Katrina's dog, PITA, seemed to actually be enjoying bath
she was getting in an old basin Katrina had found and using plain old
shampoo. Katrina didn't know if regular shampoo was okay for use on a dog,
but she wasn't heading to the promenade at that time of day.
The dog barked and jumped out of the basin, shaking itself off.
Katrina laughed. "I geuss we're done, huh?"
PITA barked again.
As Katrina started to wipe the dog down, the doors to her quarters opened.
She looked up, expecting to see her double, but it was her cat, PITA. "There
you are, sweetie. I was getting worried there."
PITA meowed and started to come over to her.
"That's my boy," Katrina cooed.
Suddenly, the dog PITA growled and jumped out of Katrina's arms. She stood in
front of Katrina, growling at the cat. The cat meowed, then hissed as it
swiped at the wet dog's face.
"PITAs! Stop it!"
The cat took off down the corridor, the dog on his heels. Katrina ran to the
doors, watching them run up and down the corridor. "Watch out!' Katrina
yelped to anyone who may have been out there. "Psycho PITAs on the loose!"
With an angry cry, the dog PITA pinned the cat PITA to the floor with her
paws. She started to bite at the cat's neck.
Katrina thought her double's dog was trying to kill her precious cat. But the
dog was actually gnawing at the explosive device attched to the cat's neck,
knowing by pure instinct that this thing was meant to hurt Blond Katrina. Dog
PITA couldn't have that. Dog PITA liked Blond Katrina much more than Dark
Katrina. She was nicer and smelled of rotten food, which was dog PITA's
favorite scent.
The dog ripped the device off the cat's neck, releasing the screaming cat. As
the cat ran for protection to Katrina, the dog shook its head wildly, then
let go of the device, sending it flying down the other end of the hall.
-----------------------------------------------------
Dark Katrina, sensing her moments for the kill were numbered by milliseconds,
pushed the DETONATE button.
------------------------------------------------------
The device exploded in mid-air.
Katrina was thrown back from down the hall.
PITA, the dog, yelped and laid down, covering her face with her paws.
PITA, the cat, yowled and jumped into Blond Katrina's bed, burying himself
under the covers.
Katrina sat up, peering out in the corridor. The dog got up and came over to
her, placing her head in Katrina's lap.
"Holy smeg!"
----------------------------------------------------
From the Captain's quarters, Dark Katrina had a fit, stomping her feet and
throwing the dinner Seymour had left across the room.
"Unbe-smegging-lievable!" she screamed. "Why won't the bitch just die!"
