Karamel: A Hero's Journey

Chapter 6 - Mission Impossible - 1

Monel, eyes closed, felt a small, smooth tongue against his cheek. "Jeez", "kara it's a bit early for that".

"Morning ",Kara laughed standing a various distance from their bed, on his side.

"Wait, if you're there who is that".
Monel turned, his back flat against the bed.
And a white ball of fluff fell of Monel's shoulder and rolled onto his butt on the bed. The tiny creature stabled himself before attempting to climb back onto Monel.

"Suprise" Kara called out. Smiling at Monel.
He rubbed his eyes before noticing the white as a polar bear puppy that was pawing at his duvet.
Monel shook, throwing the duvet off himself, jumping out of the bed and backing into the wall arms stretched and flat against it.

Kara burst out laughter.
"You're scared of puppies" kara gained some breaths back.

"No", "I'm not scared" Monel said defensively, as the puppy struggled, managing to find his way out of the duvet that was thrown over him.
It sat against the bed, less excited now.

Kara stepped closer to the bed to reach out.
"Kara, no". Monel squeaked, still backed as far away from the creature as he could get.
Kara turned and chuckled at him.
"I'm being logical here, it's all cute now but really it's is a monster" monel explained.

The puppy whimpered.
Kara ignored Monels remarks reaching out and cradling the puppy in her arms.
She turned towards Monel.
"Look, you made him sad". "He doesn't mean it, he's just being a big baby". Kara cooed at ball of fluff, tickling and stroking his head.

"And he's a boy not an it", Kara smiled.
"I'm sorry, I just I thought you'd like him and we could be a family". Kara spoke.
Monel liked the sound of that. Easing his way from the wall, a huge dent visible as he moved closer to the puppy.
"It's okay, I'm sure I'll get used to him, sorry about that" he motioned to the dented plaster wall.

"Ahh it's okay". You can stay here and fix it and bond with your son. Kara giggled.
Monel didnt say anything but his blank expression said everything.

"What", Kara chuckled, I have to get to Cacto so you and this little fella are gonna have to get along".
She gently passed the puppy to monel, he accepted the puppy unwillingly in his arms not really getting a chance to reject him.
He was soft and fluffy, and a smile was noticeably appearing on Monels lips.
"What's it's‐ sorry his,name?".

"He doesn't have one, you can decide" Kara suggested.

"Anyways, play nice"she pecked Monel on the lips. Pressing her lips against the puppy's head gently too, before heading out of their loft.

Authors note
Sorry I know this part is short, I've just been binging too much tv to write. Any name suggestions for the puppy put 'em down below.
I know technically monel has been to the future so he probably wouldn't be scared of a pup but I feel like pre future monel would be and I love pre future monel and his goofiness so I wanted to stick that in there.
Monel is and will always be a galliant goofus.
Thanks for reading.
