Emmit Mole

Poking the Mole

I was working with my newest computer trying to update it so that I could make it download anything within seconds. As I was typing away on my keyboard a blonde girl with ice blue eyes walked in and asked, more like demanded, a golden laptop.

I calmly told her, "Don't worry miss, I have plenty of gold laptops here in my store. What kind would you like?"

"Anything that is 24K gold. Now hurry up, I don't have all day," she demanded.

"Yes miss. I will be back in a minute," I replied calmly. I left to go get our latest 24K gold laptop. The top of it was the only gold thing on it but it was the best I could sell in my shop. I brought her the laptop and let her look at it.

"Ugh. What is this? It's only a little bit golden, I want it pure gold."

"I'm sorry miss but I cannot afford to sell that kind of computer. This is the most advanced and latest gold computer of its kind."

"What can it do exactly? I need it to have extremely fast speeds with everything possible, I have very important stuff I will need to do."

"This computer isn't very fast sadly. If it was it would cause the computer to heat up excessively. The gold would cool it to a point but then we don't know what would happen with the computer. I'm sorry but if you want a faster computer I can show you our fastest laptops."

"No. I don't need a computer from this trash heap call a computer store. You need to be better if you're ever going to get any business," and with that the girl stormed out of the front doors.

I slowly picked the computer up and started walking over to put it back, muttering to myself the whole way. I placed the golden laptop down carefully, back in its place. Walking back to my desk to get back to working on my computer, I pushed my glasses up on my nose and held back my anger as best I could. As I sat down my spectacles gained a black coloring. Looking up I saw a moth symbol glow around my face and I was greeted with a voice.

"Hello kind sir. I am Hawkmoth and that miss made a mistake insulting your profession. I can give you powers to show her that you are the best and that she should've respected you. All you have to do for me is get me the cat and ladybug miraculouses. Do we have a deal, Emmit Mole?"

"Yes Hawkmoth." After I muttered those words, a mist surrounded me and I pulled my new goggles over my tiny eyes and started to dig my way to find the blonde miss who needed to learn respect.
