WHY IS THERE A CAT IN MY LAB!?!??!

---------------------------

The birds were singing, and the bees are making their rounds pollinating flowers. The sky was so blue, tempting little children to drag their moms and dads out to the park and fly a kite with them.

It was a beautiful sunny day in their town, and everyone was already out and about their business.

Because it was already 10:20 am.

And Dr. Flug had just leapt from under his blanket.

"HOLY!! OH NOOOO WHA-WHAT TIME – "

He frantically looked around but he can't see anything. It took him 4 seconds to process that his bag and goggles were on an awkward position on his face, and he quickly arranged them back and glanced at his bedroom clock.

"TEN-TWENTY ONE!" he shrieked, noting his time of death.

The scientist put on his lab coat and ran down towards the kitchen, hoping to have a last meal before Black Hat kills him with his bare hands.

"Heya Fluggy boy!"

A blur of neon green and pink leapt on him from behind, making him lose his footing. Demencia laughed as the both fell to the ground.

"And where are you headed on this fine mor – "

"DEMENCIA I HAVE NO TIME FOR THIS I'M GONNA DIE!"

"Jeez chill man!" She continued to make herself heavy on top of him, but Dr. Flug was surprisingly strong enough to wriggle away from her weight and resumed running.

"I CANNOT BE CHILL IF I'M GONNA GET KILLED!!" he shouted to her, but was already meters away.

Demencia straightened her headwear as she stood up. "Great motto Fluggy wuggy! I'll write it down on your tombstone!"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The scientist finally reached the kitchen and nearly knocked over a small table.

One which Black Hat was currently using to place his hot tea.

"S-SIR!!"

"Dr. Flug."

The doctor fell to his knees and bowed down to his superior. "PLEASE DON'T KILL ME! I'LL MAKE 50 MORE ORDERS TODAY I C-CAN DO I-IT!! I CAN DO AN ADDITIONAL 100 IF I DON'T REST!"

Black Hat sighed. "Doctor – "

"T-TWO HUNDRED!! I CAN MAKE – "

"DOCTOR!!"

Black Hat picked up the scientist and pushed him forcefully onto the nearest wall like he was some picture frame ready to be hung.

"Listen to me you stuttering idiot!"

The doctor merely whimpered in response, which made Black Hat tense up a bit. The demon sighed inwardly, and after an inaudible fight with himself, he slowly released his strong grip on both of the scientist's arms.

Dr. Flug's brows furrowed. He was so sure that he was already going to have his ass handed to him. However, this action calmed him a bit, giving space for what his boss was about to say.

"I'm giving you the day off."

The scientist's heart grew heavy. Another 150 small appliances...

WAIT WHAT

"Wh-what did you say sir? More machines?"

"I said I'm giving you the day off!! What are you, deaf?!"

"YES!"
