Pet Imposter
Another story by MistraltheSkelegirl lean back and enjoy <3
Red was an Imposter.
But he wasn't a killer, he was too friendly for that.
The others knew this, and accepted it.
There were some.... difficulties at first, but they went away over time.
That didn't change the fact that, as an Imposter, his diet was... inhuman.
"Hey Red! We got some chicken!" White said gleefully. The crewmate loathed the birds, and always enjoyed seeing Red eat them. Red growled quietly, he was hungry! White and Green set down the crate they were carrying, and Red got ready. "1.... 2.... 3!" Lime called from her spot, starting a stopwatch. White and Green opened the crate and four chickens flew out, squawking and running around.
Red had jumped into action as soon as Lime said "3", and caught the first chicken, devouring it whole. Chickens 2 and 3 met the same fate.... But chicken 4 had escaped to the vents. The Imposter followed it, to the amusement of the Crewmates. After some time in the vents, the chicken, with Red right behind it, popped back out in Med Bay, startling Orange and Blue, who had been.... making out, instead of testing samples like they said they were.
"Dammit Red!" Blue cursed, running after the Imposter chasing the bird. Orange just giggled, setting up the samples once the two left. It was a sight that had Brown roaring with laughter in the Hub, as they all affectionately called the security room. Blue, chasing Red, who was running on all fours chasing the poor chicken. Red eventually caught the chicken outside Navigation, where Pink and Purple were cooing over the happy Imposter, who was gnawing on his prize.
Blue huffed when he caught up, staring at the oblivious Red. "Dammit... why did you guys have to come up in Med?!" he asked, slightly frustrated as he stormed off. He wasn't actually mad at the Imposter, just annoyed. He never got alone time with Orange anymore! Pink and Purple snickered, still patting Red on the head. "Thank..... You....." Red growled out, sounding happy.
"No problem, we know you like chasing the chickens the most! Just wait until we get to Polus, we would be able to order stuff that's bigger, and way more fun to chase!" Purple said to him, making Red perk up. "Nearly..... There?" he asked hopefully, making the two navigating officers laugh. "Not for a little while yet, Red, hang in there. We gotta finish up our work up here first." Pink explained. The happy Imposter didn't seem to hear him, lost in his fantasy of chasing things and eating them.
Pink and Purple both shrugged and went back to work. They weren't going to break their favorite Imposter out of his fantasies!
