Animation vs The Universe

~Ninja Makes a Friend~

Ninja's eyes opened, but barely. They yawned and stretched, rolling over onto their side. For once they were actually sleeping in their own bedroom.

Ninja finally forced themself out of bed, and left their bedroom. They went out of the house, seeing everyone was already awake.

Jack was tending to some drawn up flowers outside, Angel and Prince were messing around on Flappy Bird, and Viking was keeping the fox on Fire Fox entertained.

Ninja looked around, and thought to themself. If Alan was able to make Ninja come to life using Flash, maybe Ninja could make other things come to life.

Ninja got a rush of excitement at the thought. They quickly climbed the apps all the way to Flash, and opened a new document.

Ninja drew up a few things. Birds, clouds, trees. Nothing seemed to be working. The creations just lied dormant on the almost blank canvas.

Ninja sighed in dissapointment. They loved their fighting stick friends, yes, but sometimes it would've been nice to have someone or something else around.

Ninja drew up a few rocks that they could kick around, but even those wouldn't move. Ninja grumbled something, huffed, and sat down.

Ninja looked out at their friends. Prince and Angel were making fun of each other whenever one of them lost. Viking and Jack were now having a friendly conversation with each other, Fire Fox laid asleep in Viking's lap.

Ninja felt saddened. As much as Ninja loved having their friends around, it never felt like Ninja fit in with them. It never felt like they could actually ever relate to them.

Ninja looked back at all their failed creations, and stood up again, their shoulders slumped. They looked back at their friends once more, and suddenly an idea came to them.

Fire Fox was snoozing away as Viking and Jack talked. Ninja gasped a little, grabbing the pen icon and quickly drawing something.

The said thing was a black cat, or more like a black blob with ears seeing as the cat didn't have any limbs. Ninja added cute white eyes, a small white nose, and white whiskers. And finally, a black tail.

Ninja stared at the cat thing for a bit, but when it didn't move, Ninja gave up. They scoffed, starting to walk out of flash.

Ninja accidentally stepped on the drawn on tail of the cat, and the cat whipped around, biting Ninja's leg.

Ninja cried out, grabbing their leg where the cat bit them. But realization hit Ninja, and they gasped. They looked down to see the cat staring up at them.

The pen that the cat had been drawn with was replaced by pure fluff. Ninja smiled from ear to ear, picking the cat up and hugging it tightly.

It didn't seem like the cat had bones, so it really was just a fluffy puffball. The cat meowed happily, cuddling into Ninja's stick arms.

Ninja wanted to explode from happiness. They finally had something other then their friends to look after. Ninja thought for a moment.

They exited Flash, closing the window. The cat stayed snuggled in Ninja's arms. Ninja climbed up to Google, and searched up 'Google Translate'.

They typed in the word Cat, and searched through the various languages before one caught their eye in specific. The masculine translation of cat in Italian. "Gatto." Ninja said aloud.

The cat mewed in Ninja's arms, staring up at them with wide eyes. "Yeah, I think that's your name. Gatto." Ninja's voice had a happy tone. Ninja closed the Google tab, jumping down the where the others were.

Everyone's attention was caught, and they immediately noticed Gatto in Ninja's arms. "Whatcha got there?" Angel asked, cautiously approaching Ninja and Gatto.

"I made a cat!" Ninja explained. "Or a cat... blob?" Ninja questioned aloud. A loud gasp could be heard from Viking.

"You have a cat now?!" Viking shouted, running over to Ninja. Viking cautiously stuck out his arm, petting Gatto lightly.

Gatto chirped, leaning into Viking's arm. "It's adorable!" Viking happily jumped. A small growl could be heard, and everyone turned towards Fire Fox.

"I mean, you're adorable too." Viking started defending himself towards the fox. Ninja gently placed Gatto on the ground, and everyone watched as Gatto slid around to move.

The rest of the day was spent playing with Gatto, and Fire Fox of course. When everyone decided to head to sleep, Ninja gently placed Gatto on their bed.

Gatto snuggled into the comfy bed quickly, falling asleep and purring loudly.

Ninja fell asleep that night content. They'd made a friend. Literally.
