>>5250971Employing every shove and dirty trick you have short of chucking each other overboard, you and your ex-bodyguard skid into the cockpit just in time to find it occupied!
Oh… oh <span class="mu-i">no…</span>
“Heyyyy, look who’s still kickin’!” Operating the wheel and the throttle with all four of her claws, <span class="mu-r">LIL’ STANLEY</span> greets Talbot with a welcoming purr as she takes a bite out of the <span class="mu-g">PIECE OF HAM</span> wedged next to her on the control panel! What, she couldn’t get some for the <span class="mu-i">rest</span> of the team?
“D’aww, she’s just a widdle <span class="mu-i">hungwy</span>, aint’cha, cutie?” Talbot continues, going so far as to scratch the critter behind the ears! “Did you know that raccoons are smart enough to drive space shuttles? It’s true!”
Yea, well, <span class="mu-i">you</span> could do that too, y'know, if you <span class="mu-i">felt</span> like it! You can't help but frown as you watch your fuzzy counterpart steal your fun… <span class="mu-i">and</span> your attention! The only thing she’s driving is <span class="mu-i">you</span>... you <span class="mu-i">MAD</span>, that is!
“Don’t listen to her, fuzzy-wuzzy–she’s just <span class="mu-i">jeawwus</span>...” Says Talbot as he scratches the raccoon under her chin! Rolling your eyes at the smug look on your pet’s face, you stomp out of the cockpit and slam the door shut behind you! ‘<span class="mu-i">Jeawwus</span>’, he says!
“Who won?” Asks Mitz as Syb works on removing her skeleton disguise. “Not you, I’m guessing.”
Friggin’ <span class="mu-r">LIL’ STANLEY</span> did, you groan, jabbing a thumb towards the helm! Peering in through the glass, both Syb and Mitz give each other an impressed nod.
“She’s very coordinated for such a small animal.”
“Drives better than my sister ever did.”
