The NeoPets Adoption Team by hermionegranger119 |  |
Darmina loved NeoPets. They were in her dreams and everywhere she went. She
often thought of the thousands of disowned pets each year. She really felt sorry
for them.
She wished Dr_Death could find homes for the disowned NeoPets quicker, but
she knew Dr_Death was doing his best. She wished she could help them. Sometimes
she thought about working for Dr_Death in the Neopian Pound with Rosemadder,
but that wouldn't help all disowned NeoPets, only the ones that were turned
in.
She knew that some careless owners turned their NeoPets out in the streets.
If she worked in the Neopian Pound she couldn't help them. She would have to
travel the whole of Neopia to help all of them! It would take lots of work,
but she would do whatever she could to help them.
One day, when Darmina was taking her daily visit to the Neopian Pound, something
caught her eye. A faerie Aisha! She went over to its cage. It was beautiful.
She called Dr_Death over. As soon as he heard her, he lightened up. He ran over
and asked cheerfully (I know it sounds strange, Dr_Death being cheerful, but
Darmina was a big help to him. She always adopted pets from there, nursed them
back to health, then looked for a good home. This made Dr_Death's work easier
as he didn't need to care for as many pets), "What can I do for you today, Miss
Darmina?" He acted this way toward her every time.
"Well, I think I'll adopt this faerie Aisha for myself," she answered.
"I will also adopt three other pets. It doesn't matter which ones."
"Well, normally, that would be 250 NP! But as always, you can have the pets
for free (he did this because she was working to save them and she needed to
be paid for it). What did you say, the faerie Aisha for yourself? Well that's
new, but you can still have it for free! Just like a thanks."
"Thanks, Doc," she said. She took the pets to her NeoHome and found them
good homes. She did this every day, so it wasn't anything new to her. But the
faerie Aisha was! She decided to name it Daisha. Daisha made her think. Hard.
Darmina had a good idea. No, wait, a great idea. No, a WONDERFUL idea. She
would get other people that wanted to help disowned NeoPets, and they would
travel the world, saving them all. Then it wouldn't be the usual of four pets
a day (now three), it would be about fifty a day! She could save them all! She
could make her own adoption agency. It would be called Darmina and Daisha's
Daily Adoption Team of Disowned NeoPets (DDDATDN). She couldn't wait! She would
try and save them all! She started right away.
She asked Rosemadder, "Do you know anyone else who wants to help?" "Why don't
you stay here for the rest of the day? Tons of the kind of people you are talking
about come here each day," replied Rosemadder. By the end of the day, she
had fourteen other people on the team. She did the same thing the next day and
got eleven more. She was doing great! She did it for one more day and came out
with thirty-seven in all. Wonderful! Now she could fulfil her dream!
The first place they went was Grundo's Space Station. They went to the adoption
agency and got three Grundos each (all had one pet). They took them back to
Darmina's NeoHome and found homes for them. They looked everywhere to find disowned
pets. The pets that they gave homes to all wore a shirt that said, "DDDATDN".
It was her dream fulfilled.
One day, she went to the Neopian Pound, now that she had built this team, everyone
followed her wherever she went, but this time she went by herself. Dr_Death
was there, he didn't see her. She didn't see him. Where was Dr_Death? She called
him, still no response. She went into the lab, and there he was. He was looking
at something. She went over. He was smiling down at... a baby Techo! As soon
as he saw her, he flushed. "Oh, sorry. I adopted him myself! I'm sorta a father,
now! He'll grow up doing this job! She smiled, too, as she knew this Techo had
a wonderful future.
