I think it's a flaw of every white rabbit to be late for important events. Sadly I wasn't able to share this character for the contest, but luckily there is a new contest now and it seems like a good opportunity to bring this pug to life!
In the future, thanks to the advances of technology, personal gadgets got smaller and smarter to the point of going nano. Because of this most day-to-day appliances are virtually unbreakable; cellphones mend themselves after falling from hoverbikes and TVs being obliterated after a sport team loses is a thing of the past. The programmed obsolescence is a completely psychological phenomena crafted by big brands now that electronics don't naturally decay.
Those futuristic marvels can also cause mishaps, specially when misused.
An angry gamer raging hard after losing their tenth match that day expelled his computer through the window. Nowadays those things are sturdy enough to survive hitting the ground from great heights, however the only problem was that it did not hit the floor.
An unattended pug was strolling the streets in that exact same moment, being hit square in his deformed pug head by the falling PC. It would be dead instantly if it was any normal headed dog but pugs are built different.
After decades of more and more selective breeding, pugs are extremely rugged and flat faced which makes the breed expensive and in need of many surgical apparels to be able to live, almost like an internal Darth Vader mask. The owners usually have to be filthy rich to afford the overbearing price of the dog and thus it's a symbol of status. The high cost made inserting special neural chips to control behavior and locating them a common pratice.
Luck is an important factor when achieving progress, penicillin and cheese where lucky strikes, and this dog was very lucky.
His malformed skull and extensive mechanical parafernalia not only absorbed part of the impact but also breached the hull of the computer. Part of the nano technology sapped inside the dog and like a symbiotic parasite they fused together. The pug's upgraded neurochips gave him an improved intellect. And Bluetooth.
He tried to lay low with his sudden acquired cerebral capacity but he was still a dog at heart, so after one too many fast food take out orders through his mind wi-fi the authorities got a sniff of him.
He was scouted by an elite force of inconspicuous individuals, a stealth and assassination team composed by members whose appearance seems inoffensive like a sabotaging malware who achieved sentience and take children toys as hosts. For that, a super intelligent pug with animal wants and needs was a perfect fit in the team and thus an spy that is paid in hamburgers was born.
Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed it!
