AC Unit (Part 1 of ?)
#2 of Stories and Stuff
I'm baaaaaaaaack!!! And this time with more stories than before. I'll just put this one up for now only because it's the only one I bothered to edit. (Still don't think I got everything >n<)
Basically, this story is about a dog trying to win a Air Conditioner.
It's summer in Wormwood. Everybody was out and about trying to beat the heat, while few stayed indoors doing the same. 2 best friends, A mutt and a white tiger, both with the arms of a muscled ox and the strength of a bulldozer lied on the couch in complete agony. Both were panting like mad men as the sun radiated its warm rays of heat into the building. The AC was turned on but it didn't run as it was broken completely after somebody broke it, causing the poor creatures to pants and sweat till eventually they couldn't anymore.
The muscled mutt lazily grabs his phone by the counter nearby and looks at it. It reads 11:28. It's not even the middle of the day. He scrolls through his messages till he gets to the one that was sent 2 days ago by his girlfriend, a purple wolf who goes by the nickname of 'Wolfie'. It reads: "Yoooooooooo~ Star. It says that on Wednesday it's suppose to be around 99 degrees. How about we go to Beach, just the two of us. I'll try to see if I can get the puma girl to give us some free rounds of drinks. Meet at 11:30 kay?"
11:30? That's in the next 2 minutes! The mutt gets up in a flash and puts on some shorts. No time for a shirt. He yells at his tiger friend that he has to be somewhere in the next minute and then runs out the house. He unfolds his wings on his back and then takes off to the skies. Even up high in the sky going about 50-70 mph it's still hot. Soon after he does a big loop and then dives down towards the earth and on to the beach right next to his girlfriend who was only 3 inches away from getting trampled on by the mutt's hind legs.
"I made it! I made it! I totally didn't forget Wolfie!" The mutt holds his GF's paws softly in his own with a almost disappointed look on his face. Usually, he is tough and shows a attitude of average feelings to others, treating everybody like a somebody but not in the term of ranking. Someone is always something, almost nobody is better. Wolfie however gets special treatment. She isn't a queen or even a princess, but she is important enough not to try to disappoint. At least to him anyway.
"It's okay Star." Wolfie brushes off some of the sand on her fur. "It didn't matter if you came early or late, just as long as you didn't ditch me for somebody else."
Star tries to ignore that last part. He would totally ditch Wolfie if his tiger friend was sick or if his mother had called him to do something.
Wolfie looks around a bit before pointing to a wooden bar like place. She drags Star while walking and pointing towards it still. "Over there! Let's gooooooooo!" For a muscular mutt, he can still be pulled by his girlfriend.
Both the two takes an empty seat next to each other and sit down on them. A puma in a apron with flowing black hair that is currently in a bun, yellow fur with a bit of white in the middle, some nice thick thighs, ample breasts, and red glasses comes up to them with a note pad and a empty glass at hand. She looks at Wolfie and then smiles.
"Oh. I didn't know you guys would be here today. What can I get you two?" She puts down the glass and the note pad.
"Strawberry Icicle." Wolfie smiles back at the Puma.
"I don't know, water?" Star shrugs. He doesn't really drink, and when he does it's only with his friends.
The Puma smiles and leans up against the table. She runs a finger down Star's neck, around his bare pecs and whispers softly into his ear. "How about a some Liger Shot? On the house these drinks are on the house for you two you know. Why would you order the only free thing on the menu when the drink is free?"
Star tenses up a bit with makes his body looks like it's self flexing and then stutters out. "U-um... Yeah, okay. Sure. Liger Shot."
The puma leans back and smiles. "Coming right up!" She goes turns around and starts making the drinks, turning her body and moving her sides around as she swishes a mixer and showing herself off as she holds it up into the air and pouring it down into the cup below. She puts a little strawberry on Wolfie's cup and then hands her her pink drink. She does the same for Star but without any mixing at all. She takes 2 bottles up on the shelf and pour both of them in. She adds some ice in the cup and then stirs it with a little spoon before handing him a weird brownish cup.
Both Star and Wolfie thanks her and then takes a sip of there drinks.
"Oh wow! This is delicious!" Wolfie smiles brightly. "You should work in a real bar Velvet!"
The puma blushes a bit. "Oh, I can't do that. My little brother would like that. Maybe soon, when he moves out in a bit. I might could do that. How about you Star hun? Like your drink?"
Star gives a thumbs up. Truth be told, it was really strong. A bit too strong for his kind of taste. He had to make a face while Wolfie was talking so nobody could see his reaction to it.
Velvet smiles again. "That's good. Hey, you should go over to the side of the beach. They are holding a competition I think. Winner gets free drinks and a brand new AC unit."
"AC Unit huh?" Truth be told, it was Star who broke the AC. He went over to go turn it on one day and he had accidentally pressed the power button too hard. He AC became stuck on ON for a whole 5 months till December. That was when Star had punched the AC unit and then broke it completely. Getting a new AC would be lovely, since he spent all his money on repairs for his job. "Sure, I'll do it."
Velvet giggles. "Great, because I already signed you up! Better get a move on if you want to be on time!"
Wait. She already what?
Before Star could even think about what the Puma said, he was jerked off from the chair by Wolfie and ran all the way to side of the beach where 10 weights were sat on a blue mat, all side by side. 9 people were already at their own mat while Star walked to the last one left, figuring that was probably what he had to do. A zebra announcer grabbed a microphone and sat behind a desk with a Air Conditioning box beside him held by a little chicken girl in a blue dress. He smiled at everyone with his purely white teeth.
"ALRIGHT MUSCLE DUDES! ARE YOU READY TO START!?" Everyone besides Star grunted and yelled as if they were ready. Star just shrugged. "GREAT! I WANT YOU ALL TO HOLD 'THAT' WEIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU. IT WEIGHTS A WHOOPING TOTAL OF 315 POUNDS! THAT'S ALMOST 150 KILOGRAMS RIGHT THERE FOLKS IF YOU CAN HOLD THE WEIGHT OVER YOUR HEAD TILL YOU ARE THE LAST ONE STANDING, YOU WIN, THIS BRAND NEW POLAR BEAR ARCTIC FREEZE AC UNIT! NOW WHO'S READY!? Again, everyone grunts and yells. This time, Star does it as well. He actually feels pumped up. He does a few stretches before hand just to make sure he doesn't get a cramp. He was also doing a few while the zebra was talking as well, but what bad could a few more do?
"ALRIGHT! IN 3, 2, 1, LET'S BEGIN!" A wild gunshot is shot up in the air as the 10 guys lift up the weights. It's not that hard actually for Star at least, due to the fact that 1. He works at a gym so he pretty much lifts a ton of weights if he isn't spotting anybody and 2. He had lifted heavier things before. His max was about 600 pounds more or less. 300 pounds to him is at least Star trying to pick up his tiger friend after he eats 30 bowls of curry and then falling asleep on the floor.
5 minutes go by, and so far, nobody has even showed a single sign of a struggle. They all hold it as if they all are trying to stop a building from crashing down on them. The dragon beside Star gives him a angry look. "Give up dude."
"What? Really? A threat? Oh heck no. Sorry bub. This AC is all for Star." At least, that's what he thought. What he actually said was, "What? No. Go get your own you toothpick."
The dragon snorts out some smoke from his nose. "OH! OH! ALRIGHT PAL! After this is over and I win this AC, I'm gonna take your little girlfriend of yours too."
Star ignores him. He has to focus on the prize at hand. The glory of the arctic freeze within the Polar Bear. Mr. Bear, oh please sign down your freeze ray's of glory and freeze the land into a winter wonder land of blissful snow.
10 minutes soon fly by. Nobody is still out. This is getting boring quick. The zebra rings a bell over by his desk and soon, 10 random ladies, all dressed in blue appear. One of them is the Puma. "ALRIGHT BOY'S AND LADIES, I KNOW WHAT YOU ALL ARE THINKING! "OH MY SWEET DOG ALMIGHTY, SOMEBODY PLEASE JUST DROP ONE ALREADY." WELL HERE WE GO! THESE LOVELY LADIES ARE GOING TO HELP THESE POOR WEIGHTLIFTERS OUT ON HELPING THEM DROP THE BAR! YOU GUYS OUT THERE CAN HELP TOO IF YOU WANT!"
The ladies in blue all line up behind all the weightlifters and dunk each of them one by one with a bucket of cold water. 2 of the contenders drop their weights just due to the suddenly cold sensation of the ice water. Velvet dumps her ice water onto Star and giggles as Star holds on to the weight above his head. "Sorry hun, but this is so fun. I just had to join in."
Couldn't really blame her. It did kinda look a bit fun.
With all the water dunked on to people, only 8 people stand, and Star was one of them. He tries to hold his position on the wet mat as the next wave of danger comes into full tide. Next, citizens on the beach grabs glasses, bottles, fruits and even Frisbee's and throw them at the weightlifters. It's kinda sad really how the people in the middle gets hit the most, but Star does get hit a bunch as well. One of the bottles hits a contester, a gorilla, on the chest, making him drop his weight to the floor. He shrugs it off and then grabs a bottle that never made it to the guys and throws it at another canine weightlifter, making glass spread across him and the others around him and also making the poor dog drop his own weight. He smiles it off and then goes to join the crowd.
Soon, this becomes a repeated cycle till there is only 3 people standing. Star, the dragon, and a very, VERY ripped bunny who neither Star nor the Dragon realized was there till the Zebra announcer stated he was there.
"ALRIGHT FOLKS! THE FINAL 3! THIS LAST ROUND SHOULD DECIDE WHO WILL WIN THE AC UNIT! LADIES!" 3 girls in blue dress walk up to the zebra announcer. One of them is Velvet. "SPREAD THE CREAM!"
Spread the cream? Oh no.
Velvet runs up to Star with a smile on her face. She has a bucket with something white inside. The puma runs a claw down Star's neck and then gives him a look that would make most men blush the instant that saw the innocent stare. She puts a paw ful of the white stuff in the bucket and smear it all over Star's pecs and abs. Wait a minute... IT'S ICE CREAM!
Star starts wagging his tail in half a happy way and half a mad way. "No! Please! My fur! It's gonna get all sticky! I'll have to shower all day to get it all off!"
Velvet blushes and then sticks a bit of the ice cream onto Star's nose, and another bit around Star's mouth. "I'll gladly help you lick all of it off once you're done. Till then, the ice cream stays. A big boy like you can handle all these sweets anyway."
Star looks over at the Dragon. He seems to have hit the same faith, but in chocolate form instead of vanilla. A lion is coating his scales. He cannot tell what is happening to the rabbit however. But he imagines that he must be having the same exact thing right now. Star shivers at both the fact that the ice cream is cold and that the hulk rabbit covered in ice cream. It would be a strawberry-vanilla mix at least.
This goes on for about 3 more minutes. Velvet putting on more ice cream on to Star from chest to legs to finally arms and back. He struggles so hard to keep the weight above him up high. The puma mentions a second layer of strawberry ice cream which makes Star almost right then and there drops it, but only not to due to the dragon roaring beside him. The ice cream is too much. He just can't any longer.
Velvet grabs another bucket and then smears strawberry ice cream all over his chest and arms and then, almost in a stop motion picture flash animation, he lets go of the weight, almost hitting Velvet who has a big grin on her face. Star looks at the others. The dragon is down. The rabbit is down.
Wait. He was the last one?
"AND WE HAVE A WINNER! BY 3 SECONDS, STAR THE... WHATEVER KIND OF BREED THAT DOG IS HAS ONE! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!"
Everybody cheers and yells happily as they clap for Star. He won, by 3 seconds. He'll take it as a win. Velvet is happily licking Star's perky chest while Wolfie full front hugs him. Soon, Velvet turns and makes it into a hug. The chicken in a blue dress waltz over to Star and hands him the box of the AC unit. Finally! He can go to sleep without having to take off all his cloths and sweat all over the bed.
The dragon walks over to Star and gives him a hand shake. "Good job. But next time, I'm gonna win. Just you watch."
Star chuckles. "I can't wait to lose."
They both laugh for a bit before Star fist bumps the dragon. "Next time."
"Yeah, next time." Star could see the passion in his eyes. It was burning up like a forest fire.
Star turns to Wolfie and smiles. "Okay, I'm going home to take a shower. I'll be back soon okay?"
Wolfie nods. "Sure!"
And then with that, Star unfolds his ice cream splattered wings and takes off into the sky with the AC Unit. He flies all the way to his house, lands, then opens the door, only to see a squirrel rush out of the house and his tiger friend with a coy smile on his face.
"Takaya... What was that about?" Star sets down the AC Unit.
"What was what about?" The white tiger looks around a bit and then looks at Star. "AND UM! Oh cool! You brought a new AC! Aw yeah dude! You're the best!" Takaya smiles innocently, ignoring the fact that Star has ice cream all over his fur.
"Yeeeeaah... I won it in a contest. Can you plug it up while I go take a shower?" Star sits the A.C down.
"Yeah, sure thing dude! Don't worry, I gotcha." Takaya gets up and takes a bit of ice cream from Star's arms and legs and eats it.
