Who: Kevin and Frau
When: Today!
Where: At the house, and then... all over the city.
Summary: Mimsy is terrified of Tolly. Tolly decides to prove his superiority to the dumb dog. Who isn't so dumb.
Warnings: Swearing about stupid animals.

Kevin was going to grill outside, meaning that Mimsy was off the leash. He glanced over his shoulder.

Then he turned over one of the steaks that he was making and made sure the corn wasn't going to burn.

When he heard a yelp, Kevin whipped around in time to see Mimsy tear out of the yard, Tolly hot on her heels. "MIMSY!"Kevin dropped the spatula.

"FRAU! TOLLY'S AFTER MIMSY!"

No matter how hilarious he found Tolly's bullying of Mimsy, he didn't want Mimsy running loose on the island. "Dammit!" He booked after his dog.

Frau glanced up, completely unconcerned with Kevin's shout. Tolly wasn't going to do anything besides show Mimsy who was boss. His kitten certainly had a rough personality, but she never really hurt anyone. It was hard to tell she was bluffing sometimes though.

"They're fi-"

He'd turned around just in time to see both of them take off down the street. That wasn't good. With the whole island at their disposal, the two animals could end up just about anywhere and wind up in quite a bit of trouble.

"Shit. Tolly!"

Kevin hated chasing things. Hated it. "I tol' ya!" He yelled back. He wasn't going to risk his dog getting into SERO's hands. No doubt they would take great delight in hanging her over his head... or just hanging her.

"DAMMIT!" He watched Mimsy slip between two buildings, Tolly hot on her tail. Kevin bumped into a wall and ran after them. He bit off another curse, seeing the pair of them slip through a fence. It'd been a while since he'd jumped fences. He'd only done it once, and he'd gotten caught!

Kevin climbed the fence and jumped down on the other side, chasing the two animals.

While Frau had started off behind Kevin, he easily caught up. Speed wasn't an issue for him even in human form. If he needed to, he could move quickly enough to be more a blur than anything else. Leaping a fence wasn't any problem either considering he jumped out of tower windows without a second thought.

"Oi! Tolly, knock it off!"

Tolly glanced back for a brief moment before she started herding Mimsy toward a crowded street. It would slow down both of their people rather quickly.

Mimsy's tongue hung out of her mouth. She was running! When she looked back and almost fell over her own paws, she saw Daddy! YES DADDY RUN! She barked and ran off, Tolly fast on her heels. She turned into the crowd and ran past the a few people.

Kevin ground his teeth together and chased after his dog. The wall of people made him hesitate. Dammit. Too many people. The panic rose and then he saw Mimsy stop and take a lick of a kid's ice cream cone, Tolly licking a few drops off Mimsy's paw.

"MIMSY!"

DADDY WE RUN NOW!

Frau growled in annoyance when he saw where Tolly was leading them. It couldn't be anyone but his cat's idea to try and make things this difficult. When Kevin hesitated, Frau made up his mind. He snatched Kevin around the waist and hoisted him up. In a few quick bounds Frau was above the people and running along the walls.

Tolly spotted the suddenly airborne form of her master and panicked. With a yowl she bolted forward only to slam into a street vendor outside a little craft shop. Confetti and glitter flew everywhere, coating both animals. The sparkling light caught Tolly's attention for a moment and she paused to pounce on one before returning to the task at hand. Hopefully she wouldn't need to give Mimsy any incentive.

Kevin yelped in a very undignified manner. He'd argue, but Frau would just call him Casper and tell him to shut up. "Ya coulda asked, ya know." He grumbled instead. It made him feel better.

Mimsy stopped, looking back at where her friend had stopped. She cocked her head to the side and then saw Tolly running at her again. Mimsy barked happily and took off into the crowd. She jumped over another dog. then she stopped, staring at a dog that was in a purse. IT WAS MAGIC. HOW MASTER?

... Oh. Running. She tore off again, Tolly at her side, rather than behind her.

"You would have argued."

And they didn't really have time for that. Frau tried to keep an eye on their pets from the air, but it wasn't as easy as he'd originally thought. The two had a talent of winding there way through a crowd and darting all over the place. Not that Frau figured he'd have any better luck spotting them from the ground.

"Try to keep an eye on them. I might lose them."

"I'm tryin'." Kevin grumbled. He tried to peer through the crowd and saw a streak of brown headed down an alley way. He strained to see, but that wasn't Mimsy.... "There they go!" He pointed across the park as the pair took off across the grass.

Mimsy took off across the grass. She ducked under a bush and then around another. She wasn't quite as small as her feline companion. Together again, Mimsy followed Tolly across the street, dodging around other pedestrians.

Kevin was going to have a heart attack. Mimsy was trying to kill him.

Once they were on the grass Frau released Kevin and started running on his own. There were less people to dodge around and even if there weren't, Frau couldn't use buildings to get above them anymore.

"Dammit, Tolly!"

This was turning into a full wild goose chance. Frau was pretty sure by this point that Tolly was simply running to be a pest, and Mimsy was following along for the fun of it. Hopefully they wouldn't wind up in too much trouble or in an area they really shouldn't be.

Kevin stumbled but kept running. He nearly plowed down a poor kid that got into his way. And then nearly killed himself trying not to run into her. "Ya alrigh'?" He asked, steadying her for a second. When she nodded, he smiled. "Good. 'Scuse me. MIMSY!" He raced after Frau and the two four-legged hellions that were going to get skinned by the pair of them.

Mimsy heard the call, but she smelled something. IT SMELLED GOOD! PAL! WE GO THIS WAY!

She twisted and ran under another fence. Then, a rabbit broke cover and Mimsy gave a happy bark and tore after it straight into the bushes.

Tolly had swerved after Mimsy, easily keeping pace. While the rabbit caught Mimsy's attention, it wasn't anything interesting to Tolly. However, she wasn't going to allow Mimsy to get the best of her, so she took off after it too. Being faster that the dog was a requirement.

Frau vaulted over the fence and continued forward. Now that they were out of the more city like area, it should be easier to chance the animals down. Of course it could also be just as easy to lose track of them. There was less to hid behind, but there was more directions for them to go in.

"Pain in the ass... I'm going to kill her when I get my hands on her."

Kevin jumped the fence, luckily not getting tangled in the wood. He was going to skin Mimsy and lock her in the house when he caught her. He couldn't believe he was actually running through a field, trying to catch his dog.

... He'd left life as an X-Man behind dammit!

"Ya ain't the only -" The rest was cut off in a weak squelch. Kevin's foot slipped in something and dooooooooown he went. When he got up, he smelled like roses... well, roses in the spring, anyway. "I hate m'dog." He growled, pulling off a glove and beginning to dissolve the... organic material (better than thinking of it as manure) off his clothing. Unfortunately, part of his shirt went with it, since they were the one thing he could never find synthetics of.

Frau was careful to leap out of Kevin's way. He didn't want to end up in a pile of poo as well, thanks. After he landed steadily and was safe for the moment, he couldn't help chuckling a little.

"Doing real well, aren't you."

So they were in the middle of chasing two animals all over the freaking place and it wasn't going well. That didn't mean that Frau couldn't tease.

Kevin scooped a bit off his clothes with his gloved hand and lobbed it at Frau. "this is all yer cat's fault." He groused. Then he started loping after the animals again.

Mimsy stared at the hole. THE HOPPY THING! IT WENT DOWN THERE PAL!

... Tolly wasn't impressed and just trotted off into the field.

Mimsy whined at the hole and then trotted after Tolly. Now she was lost, and there was no Daddy and no not!Daddy. Tolly would take her home. Of course.

Frau ducked the pile with little trouble. He'd had worse things thrown at him a heck of a lot faster before.

"Probably is."

Yes, Frau was a little bit proud of that, though he didn't like needing to chase after his cat. In all reality, if it had just been Tolly he would have let her go. She would have come traipsing back on her own later. If Kevin was running though, Frau would follow.

Tolly swished her tail in irritation as she paused for Mimsy to catch up. As much as the little dog annoyed her, she wasn't just going to leave Mimsy to her own devices. Of course she would never show the stupid dog that she actually cared.

"Ya ain't gotta sound so proud o' that." He was going to have to bathe himself and the dog, and probably the cat too. They were all going home filthy. Now, if he could just find his dog! "Did ya see where they went?"

Mimsy trotted along with Tolly, smelling Everything. There were smells! Everywhere! And things! What were the things! She didn't know but they smelled! And...

What were the noisy short bird things? They pecked at the yard. Mimsy went to find out! AND THEN THEY CLUCKED AND RAN AWAY! YAY! CHASING!

Now these things Tolly could get into. She dropped low to the ground and stalked forward, her tail swishing in the air. As long as she was quiet enough she might be able to get near enough to one of them to pounce on it.

Frau just grinned at Kevin. He was proud of Tolly. She could stand up for herself which was a good thing even if she was a hassle sometimes.

"Through the grass I think. Probably still straight forward."

When he caught a glimpse of unsettled chickens in the distance he had a feeling he knew exactly where the two animals had gone. He pointed it out to Kevin.

"That way."

Kevin groaned at the sound of ticked off chickens. "I hate chickens. Least they plucked an' on the grill." His accent got thicker when he got annoyed.

He sighed and trotted off in that direction.

Mimsy couldn't catch the squawky things. She sat and panted in the yard, staring at the chickens that fluttered to a rest not that far away. Her tail thumped in the dirt for a moment. She heard something and turned to look.

It was another not!Daddy! She barked and got to her feet. Except, this one threw rocks. She cocked her head to the side when one of the rocks scuffed up the dirt at her feet. She didn't understand. Another rock grazed her ear and she yelped, shying away. A whimper from the back of her throat only got another rock pitched at her. This one hit her in the shoulder. That was when she took off. She ducked under a few bushes, and stopped to pant and wait for Tolly.

"They could be worse."

Most of the animals here had worse counterparts in Frau's world. These ones didn't seem all that dangerous to him.

Tolly skidded to a stop when she heard Mimsy's yelp. It took her a moment to figure out what had caused it, but when she spotted the farmer throwing rocks it all made sense. Her ears flattened a bit and her fur stood up on end. There was no way in hell she was going to let this person get away with that. With a hiss, Tolly charged him.

"Could be geese." Geese were evil, plain and simple. He'd seen one at a children's zoo close to his home in Atlanta. Damned thing had tried to eat him. He'd had nightmares for a week because of that damned thing.

When Tolly didn't join her right away, Mimsy stuck her head out. She saw Tolly charging the not!Daddy and ran after the cat. Mimsy caught up to Tolly and bowled her over, getting a claw to the snout and a rock to the side. She reared back from Tolly, protecting the smaller cat with her body.

Mimsy stared at the person, set her feet and growled. Her hackles rose and she was prepared to defend Tolly. Even if the scratch on her nose was seeping blood. NO ONE hurt her friend!

Tolly was sent summersaulting in Mimsy's wake and finally ended up sprawled out on the ground. It took her awhile to even realize what had just happened. Here she'd been trying to defend Mimsy and instead Mimsy had turned around and tried to defend her. It was somewhat annoying.

While Frau couldn't see the stand off the animals were putting on, he had noticed the other person in the field. He had a feeling the guy wouldn't appreciate pets running wild out here, and Frau picked up the pace.

"Come on."
