A demons corruption || a paperhat story ||

Part 9 - a brand new friend

Flug hadn't stopped crying for hours. He was lonely had no one who would even want to get to know him now that he worked for a demon. Then there was a sound of the lab door opening. Black Hat appeared from the corridor, Flug didn't even want to see him so he crossed his arms in a huff.

"What do you want?"

"Well, I've taken a notice that you won't be able to perform your duties if you don't have a companion."

"And?"

"And...."

Before anything else was said there was a loud crash followed by a large blue ball of fur trailing through the lab. Before Flug even processed it he was being suffocated by what felt like a giant heavy cloud. Is this how Black Hat planned to kill him off? Black Hat struggled but managed to lift the ball of fur off of Flug.

"So you see this is why I needed a scientist working for me."

Flug sat up and saw a giant bear, he was about to shriek before he noticed something, this bear was acting a lot more like a puppy than a bear. There where also more strange things, a flower seemed to be growing out of the bears head, it had large eyes and it was blue!

The scientist didn't know what to say until Black Hat spoke up.

"I thought that since I killed off your friend I should make you a new one. I'm not very good at this stuff though...."

Flug could see what he meant, Black Hat either tried to make a sweet puppy or a ferocious bear, either way he failed miserably.

"Papa!"

Flug almost found himself fainting again, the bear could talk! But it wasn't talking to Flug, it was talking to Black Hat, most likely because he created him.

The scientist was once shocked again when Black Hat roughly slapped the bear across the head.

"Ah?! What're you doing?!! He's only a baby!"

"Yeah, and I hate children, this creature is all yours."

The bear started to whimper and then ball his eyes out. All Black Hat did was roll his eyes and leave the lab with not a care in the world. Flug stood up and started to stroke the bears head where the demon had slapped him. It took a lot of courage but Flug lifted his paper bag up slightly and pecked the bear on the head, at that the bear started to coo happily.

Flug now realised he would have to give his new friend and name, but he was no good at making things.

***3 hours later***

The two went through hundreds of names until Flug gave up and slumped back into a chair. Suddenly the bear made a happy coping sound and started patting its oversized paw on the page rapidly. The bear was trying to point to what seemed to be one of the names but because of his large paws Flug couldn't see what he was pointing at.
The bear then picked up a red pen in its mouth and scribbled on the page for about 4 seconds before he dropped the pen and showed Flug the page again.

The bear had circled one of the numbers "505" the poor thing must have thought that was a name choice. On the other hand, the bear seemed happy and Flug was too tired to do more name searching.

"5. 0. 5 huh? Alright then!"

5. 0. 5 clapped his paws together and cooed happily. Flug may not have Jamie, but at least he could finally be there for someone who needed him, it felt good.
