Frio's Wild Game

Its amazing how fast one can move in the net compared to the real world. Frio, using a few portals here and there quickly arrived to Wrangler's quickly put together Bounty stand. This was a new concept to the lion navi, but his operator asked him to do it, so he did it. Quickly walking over to the stand, he peaked through the glassless window, "Hey is there anybody here? I've come for one of those bounty things."

"While you're taking care of that, I'm gonna go take care of some shopping before bed okay?" Layla asked the question, but didn't await an answer. She jetted off to do the errands, while her navigator awaited the Wrangler program.

((Normal Net))

This is where Layla went.

From underneath the stall, a brown Prog popped its head up. "Howdy! I'm Wrangler! Hang on, lemme get that for yah," said the Prog, whereupon a slot in front of the stall rattled to life, and ejected a small list of viruses. "There ya go! Take yer pick!"

"Well... If I have to pick from these, I reckon I'll take the BombCorn virus." Frio gave the program his decision, while intentionally changing the way he spoke to slightly mimic Wrangler.

"All righty, you're up for a little corn farming, then," said Wrangler, hopping in place as the slot in front of him once more allowed another piece of paper through it. "Hop on back here once you think you've harvested enough, and we'll pass you the flour. Capiche?"

"Thanks little buddy." Frio smiled, and walked a little ways away from the booth. There wasn't much for him to do, so he just plopped down under a digital tree, and awaited Layla to finish her shopping. This didn't take very long however, and she soon showed up.

"Did ya miss me?" Layla's voice rung through the PET. "It's time for bed baby." She unplugged the PET, which caused Frio to beam back into his personal living device.
