Darkwave reads one of Benny’s good deeds from the newspaper. Darkwave is a dark brown tabby male cat with black eyes. He wears a dark purple cape and purple gloves. He is the anti-hero of the story.
Darkwave: Benny helped the elderly learn how to use a computer?! What a hero. Maybe I can do the same!
Darkwave wanted to do the same thing that Benny did to gain fame and praise. So, Darkwave is going to help local
senior citizens with computer skills at the local library.
Darkwave entered the library.
Librarian: Welcome, Darkwave. The computer room is that way.
The librarian is a cat named Star. Darkwave headed to the computer room. There are a few elders there to get their learn on.
First, Darkwave helped an older cat named Malia. She is a white and brown cat with blue eyes. She wears a green flower necklace.
Darkwave: Okay, Malia. It’s time to learn how to use modern technology.
Malia: Such as?
Darkwave: Well…things like smartphones and computers.
Darkwave: (Signs). Miss. Malia, please turn on the computer.
Malia turned on the computer.
Darkwave: Okay. Now, in order to use a website, click on the world icon.
Malia tapped the icon with her paw.
Darkwave: No, no, not like that. It isn’t touch screen.
Malia: Touch screen?
Darkwave: (Signs). Nevermind. You need to click the icon with your mouse!
Darkwave has a short temper, and frustration makes it worse. Malia tried to use the mouse, but she was just learning.
Malia: Is it this one?
Malia unknowingly clicked on a different icon.
Darkwave: No! You accidentally turned on a video game!
Moron!
Malia: (Gasps). Excuse me?
Darkwave: Now, the computer is going slow! Okay! I launched the web browser for you! Now, search for something—anything!
Malia tries to use the keyboard to type something.
Darkwave thought she was taking forever.
Darkwave: Ugh!
Darkwave slammed the keyboard on the desk.
Darkwave: That’s not how you use a computer! Slow does not win the race!
Malia cried because Darkwave yelled at her while learning computer skills. The librarian, Star, realized this and came over to Darkwave. Star is a brown tabby cat.
She has green eyes.
Star: Darkwave? There’s no reason to be mean and disrespectful! Get out!
Darkwave: Aw, what? Fine.
Darkwave left the library.
