Mission 3.

[secretagent_p]

[Perry is renovating today!

You may see him, hammer in hand, trying to make his doghouse more...well, it needed something. So, he's providing the something. It's kind of turned into a very large, elaborate house with several stories. Or at least, that's where it's headed.

Approach? Help?]

Mrrr.

[She was walking around the town again, trying to get familiarized as quickly as possible, when she hears construction sounds! She goes over and blinks, calling out.]

Hey!

[secretagent_p]

[Oh hey there, curious child! Perry puts the hammer down and turns around. The structure kind of resembles this lovely building at the moment. Ah, construction.]

Mrrr!

[Hello there!]

[spunky_explorer]

[Chuckles as she waves.]

You're pretty handy to be making that all by yourself. I don't think I've seen any other animals doing something like that, not even jumping mice!

[secretagent_p]

'I was trained as an agent for a spy Agency at home. I am a highly skilled animal.

What is your name, young human?'

[spunky_explorer]

[She looks over at the pad of paper, a bit surprised that he could write. The jumping mice could only spell names and dance.]

My name's Coraline. Coraline Jones. What's yours?

[secretagent_p]

'My name is Perry Flynn-Fletcher, though just Perry is quite fine. It is a pleasure to meet you.

Do you like construction?'

[spunky_explorer]

I like making things, yes. Would you like some help with your. . [She simply goes with her first assumption.]. .house?

[secretagent_p]

'Of course. That would be wonderful. If you could hammer the higher up boards for me, I would be forever in your debt.'

[spunky_explorer]

I'm on it. [She fakes a salute before taking up a spare hammer.] Are there many animals from your world that are trained as secret agents?

[secretagent_p]

[Yeah! Recruits for the construction front!]

'There are a few. Agent C, D, T...but he recently got eaten at Thanksgiving.'

[spunky_explorer]

Oh! That's too bad for Agent T. . .He was a turkey I take it?

[secretagent_p]

'Yes. He was quite a fine agent, as well...unfortunately, his family decided it was time for dinner.'

[spunky_explorer]

His family? Are you guys assigned to spy on a human family or something?

[secretagent_p]

'No no. We simply live with a human family under the guise of a family pet.'

[spunky_explorer]

Are the human families you live with aware of the situation?

[secretagent_p]

'The ones who live here in Mayfield? Yes. The ones in the Tri-state area? No.'
