[DIA] BFDI x II A Black Hole living on Earth (Book #2)

Can I keep him?

Tree's P.O.V:

December just rolled in and already it's much more chilly, but then again plants like me can be extra sensitive when it comes to lower temperatures. At least I made the smart choice of bundling up today as I go over to visit meet up with with team.

But man can I already feel frost forming on my leaves when I stopped at a crosswalk, I would drive there had the stupid storm not completely trunked up some of the roads. I watch the authorities stationed on the streets managing traffic as construction workers clear up remaining debris before I hear a loud whistle of said officer clearing me to walk. 

I finally make it to one of our usual meeting spots at the park and find everyone at one of the gazebos with snacks an a heater, I rush over as quickly as I can.

Tree: *pant pant* Hey guys.. sorry if I'm late. 

Liy: You're not the last one here so don't worry about it. 

Lightning: Here Tree, this should help warm up. I made it myself. 

Lightning fills a bowl with some ramen he's been cooking and hands it to me. 

Tree: Thanks Lightning. *deep breath* ahh...

Pin: Hey guys! 

Bottle: PIN, GATY! Glad you could make it!

Pen: You doing alright Gaty? I heard what happened. 

Gaty: I'm fine for the most part, I don't bleed so I'll live. 

Robot Flower: I'M SORRY I DID THAT TO YOU GATY. 

Gaty: Don't worry about it Robot Flower.

Tree: Black Hole isn't here yet?

Liy: Nope, he should be here any moment though. I texted him and everything. 

Black Hole: Hey guys!

Right on cue Black Hole flies down toward us. 

Black Hole: I thought I'd check out other environments nearby the city and lost track of time. 

As he landed I noticed he was holding something... rather unsettling. Everyone even me stepped back when we saw this massive plant thing that was taller than even Black Hole!

Death P.A.C.T: *startled sounds*

Pen: Dude- what is THAT THING?

giant plant: *yaaawwn*

Black Hole: Oh this lil fella? I found him at the top of that snowy mountain, I couldn't just leave him out in the cold. 

Tree: Black Hole.. that is a Goikan object eating piranha, it eats people!

Black Hole: Him? He's totally harmless. 

giant plant: *plant noises*

Marker: Aww it's actually pretty cute-

Marker walks over to pet the plant but it suddenly chomp on his head shaking him about, Lightning and Black Hole both freaked out.

*CHOMP*

Marker: *muffled* WHAAAAAAAAAAA

Lightning: WHAT THE ZAP ARE YOU DOING!? SPIT! HIM! OUT!
Black Hole: NO NO! BAD PLANT! SPIT! SPIT!

giant plant: BLEAGH!

The plant drops Marker who was now covered in disgusting drool. 

Marker: Ugh- Ouchie...!

Black Hole: Bad Planty, bad! We do NOT bite people. 

Pin: Don't tell me you named it? 

Black Hole: Well how else am I supposed to refer to him? 

Liy: Black Hole, I understand the snow peak is not a good place for it but please just take it somewhere else, like it's actual habitat. 

Black Hole: That's what I planned on doing though..

Pen: I don't like the sound of that.

Black Hole: Planty and I, we kinda had a bit of a connection so I figured I'd keep him. 

The whole place went silent.

Fanny: You gotta be kidding me. Black Hole, that plant is a murderous creature! IT CAN'T STAY HERE! DX<

Black Hole: So am I! And you all let me stick around, not to mention we just accepted Robot Flower into the pact despite her violent malfunctions. 

Robot Flower: I MEAN, HE'S NOT WRONG. I DON'T SEE WHY WE SHOULDN'T LET HIM KEEP PLANTY. 

Lightning: You're not the one who almost had their head bit off. 

Black Hole: C'mon guys. I've always wanted a pet like most of you but I'm just to dangerous for any earth critter, this one though is fascinatingly resilient and tough. Tree, you out of everyone must understand why I'm so bent on keeping him. 

I glance to.. Planty and back to Black Hole with that hopeful look in his face. He's definitely right about what he said and me understanding, I sigh in slight defeat as I take his side.

Tree: You're right, the plant can stay. 

Remote: Me too. 

Liy: Ugh fine. But at least train him NOT to eat people! 

Black Hole: I will, I promise. You hear that buddy, you're coming home with me later. 

Black Hole strokes Planty's uh.. chin? as it I assume pants like a dog. I admit I can see the similarities in these two.
