Season 2. Episode #7

[alvin]

Previously on the SPPs. Uni and Moe are heading to Nebraska to breif Tooter, Hali and Dudley are heading to NC, and Dorian and Tiddles are seting up the Pijie trap.

Gertrude is on his way to do some gardening in Northern New Jersey. Doodles is in Trafalgar Square without a chaperone.
As a result Tony Blair has declared a state of emergency in London, and ordered a general evaquation.

Moe arrived in Omaha first, surprising both Tooter and Dinkster. She had a second or two to scream DUCK! before Uni arrived in a blur of feathers. Tooter dived behiend the loft, fortunatly for him, he landed on something soft.

Dinkster.......

Dinkster spat out the screw driver he was holding in his beak, and mumbled somthing from underneath Tooter's tail feathers.

'Sorry Dinkster. But we have a guest'.
'You did that on purpose. - Just because I wouldn't route Cable TV from next door for you.'
'Would I be that small minded?'

Dinkster shook himself off.

'Council has advised me not to answer that question, on the grounds that any answer I give may serve to incriminate me.'
'You claiming the 5th Dinkster?'
'Me? - Never Boss.'
'One of these days Dinkster..........'

Tooter and Dinkster walked around the side of the Loft where they met Moe coming the other way.

'Tooter! Dinkster! Thank God I found you!'
'Slow Down.' Ordered Tooter 'First off, Why are you here? I sent you home already.'
'Ask her....' Said Moe, indicating UNI who was just gatehering herself after a rather vigourous landing among the trees in victor's yard. She dusted some errant leaves from her feathers and composed herself.

'Oh Hi Uni. How you been?'
'Fine Toots, You are looking well Dinkster.'
'Thanks M'Lady, to what do we owe the honour?'
'Take a look at this.' Said Uni, tossing the flier over to Tooter.
'Hmmmmmm'. murmered Tooter as he looked at the flier.
''Eh Tooter, Do you always read human like that?' Asked litte Moe.
'Like what?'
'Upside down........'
'I knew that!' Exclaimed Tooter quickly reversing the flier, and beginning again. It was a while since he had to read Human, and had forgotten much. But the words "Dove" and "Hunt" are not easy to forget.

Tooter went quiet. Very quiet. Dinkster recognized the signs and ushered the other two behiend something solid. From behiend the tree that where they were taking refuge, they heard the sound of a Pijie going absolutely ballistic. Feathers, dirt, and paper rained down all around as Tooter vented his anger. After a while all grew quiet. Moe decided to stick her head out from around the tree. Dinkster grabbed her back just in time.

'Not yet, he just stopped for breath!!!!.'

After a second or two, the bedlam continued.

'How long does he do this for?'
'It depends. But I guess it'll be safe enough in

5,-4,-3,-2,-1..........1...............any...second....now.... ..Bloody heck, he's
annoyed!!!!'
All grew silent again.
'There, that should do it.' Shrugged Dinkster. 'Moe, why don't you go see if the coast is clear?'
'What? Me?'
'Yes, you. - You're a young bird, I'm older. You can duck better because you're closer to the ground already.'

Uni delivered a wingslap.
'OWWW' shreiked Dinkster. 'Ok, I'm going! I'm going!'
Dinkster cautiously looked out around the tree. He sighed with relief, and went over to where Toooter stood. In a small crater of destruction, The flier was torn, and burned in places, earth and grass lay strewn about, and Tooter's beak was cooling from white hot to red hot.
Tooter looked embarassed. He hated losing his temper and berserking like that.
Funnily enough hawks, cats, big vicious dogs, lions, tigers and bears, hated it when Tooter lost his temper like that too.
It usually ment that they were about to be on the wrong end of a world class buttkicking.

'Ok, what are we going to do about this Tooter' Asked Moe.
'We are not going to do anything young Mona. Dinkster, Squeeks, Uni, and I are going to do something about it...'
'Aw, Great. - I should put in for a raise....' moaned Dinkster.

[Feather]

This is just too exciting! I think my heart is actually beating faster!

You stinker Alvin!

[mr squeaks]

Nice going, Alvin...you DO have a way of getting SPPs excited! I didn't know Tooter had such a temper but can certainly understand. Squeaks tends to be calm most of the time - even chasing the cats. At this point, it's mostly automatic reaction: see cat, chase cat - IF said cat has crossed his "boundary" line!

However, when there is something that he perceives as the "enemy"...YIKES, my lovable mate turns into "Mr. Vicious!" The sounds! The feathers flying! The beak striking! So, I can certainly understand why the SPPs stayed out of Tooter's way. A pijie, especially an SPP, going ballistic is nothing to fool with! Actually, being the target of the "Wrath of an SPP" will send Tiddles (especially) and DvN running for cover yelling for mercy!

Feather - bet you LOVE suspenses novels, huh? WHEN you have TIME from your STUDYING and checking out PT!

[Feather]

Gotcha Shi! Thanks!
