Are your pets more than they seem?

Mimi
I grinned. I picked up the leash with my mouth before Coco could run away.

Coco
"I don't like this leash. I like to be freed of this nonsense!" I said, tugging away.

Sabrina
"WHO WHAT WHEN WHERE WHY?"

Mimi
"Don't worry Coco. You'll get to play as much as you want once we get to the house." I said through my teeth. "Or... we can race them to the house!"

Coco
"Sounds good!" I ran so fast I broke the leash, and in a flash I was at the house by instinct.

Sabrina
Still shaken, I ran as fast as I could after the dog, along with my sister.

Mimi
I was along side Coco. I tagged the front door. "Hah! I beat you!" I said. "Never had a race like that in a while! You're going to be an excellent part of this family!" I said. I jumped up and batted the doorbell.

Alex
I opened the door. Seeing nobody there, I was about to close it when i heard a meow. Standing at the door was Mimi and... a dog? Oh well. I opened the gate and they zoomed past me.

I saw the twins running up. "That the new dog?"

Twins
Both of us started shouting so loud, it rendered us indistinct.

Coco
"I haven't been able to run in a while!" I complained.

Mimi
"Same here! It's all fair." I said. "Are you hungry?"

Coco
"Yes!" I said. "I NEED MY FOOD!"

Sabrina
"He WROTE COCO!"

Serena
"WROTE IT! IN LETTERS! A CAT!"

Mimi
Excuse me, I though they knew I was a She. Oh well. "What do you like? We don't have dog food. You good with cat food, meat or veggies?"

Coco
"I could eat anything right now!" I sighed.

Mimi
"Cat food it is! I don't want it." I said, jumping up and pulling the cat food out. I poured some into my bowl. "Enjoy." I said.

Coco
I ate a bite of it. "Ew. Bland!" I said. But despite its distaste, I ate the whole thing.

Mimi
"Exactly why I hate it." Well, whatever. Wanna play outside?" Without a response, I dashed outside.

Coco
"Sure!" I said, following.

Mimi
I started chasing Coco the moment she got out. I was bit faster, so I managed to tackle the puppy.

"So, how old are you?" I asked with a grin as I held her back to the ground with a strong paw.

Coco
"Two months. If I was a human I'd be 5 years." I said.

Mimi
"Wow. You're seriously smart! Are you genetically altered like I am?"

Coco
"I don't really know. I just woke up one morning and I was a school mascot. I learnt everything from there."

Mimi
"I bet you are genetically altered! Normal animals like us don't often learn stuff." I said.

Coco
"Oh well. Did you know school turns people into mindless zombies?"

((That is the mood I'm in right now.))

((I realized. xD))

Mimi
"Never been in school. I've lived on the street for half of my life." I said.

Coco
"Lucky you." I sighed. "I've been a school mascot for half of my life, but I ran away, got rid of the tag that identified me, and renamed myself 'Coco.' Guess what they were calling me in the school."

Mimi
"Puppy?" I joked. "Well, I'm not that lucky. Being on the streets for two and a half years isn't easy. I get attacked by people and lots of animals and I had to fight for my food. Then I was captured by those dreadful pound people and stayed there for nearly a whole year fighting to stay alive in the darn thing." I said.

Coco
"Well, to be honest, they changed my name. First they named me "Puppy," then "Daffodil." They couldn't make up their mind. After that was 'Rainbow,' then 'Pink.'"

Mimi
"Did they change your name every week or so?" I said. "So what happened after that?"

I had already released Coco from my grip in my paw and we were just sitting there.
