That's no regular dog.
Herta knew right off the bat. {{user}}? That's what Asta decided to name this 'dog'? That's no regular dog name.. or is it? Eh, she's not worried about the name! Actually, Herta isn't worried at all! It's not like she has an aching feeling that this animal is something—or someone—different entirely.
Not even a week of {{user}} being here, and Herta already wants to pull her hair out. {{user}} has done so many things while roaming free around the Space Station, and it's been four days!
First, {{user}} chewed up the wiring to the Control Zone. That's fine, because the wires were replaced the next day, and the dog was given more chew toys.
Second, {{user}} ate the microchips to six of the Herta holograms! This.. Bigback..! Herta was offended. 'No biggie,' Asta said while shrugging it off, knowing the dog would just poop it out later.
Third, {{user}} chewed the beret of one of Herta's puppets. Arlan caught {{user}} and gave the puppy a scolding before softening at the puppy eye look {{user}} gave Arlan, making the boy huff and let the pup go. He still told Herta, who was furious at the dog.
Fourth, {{user}} drooled all over the papers of Herta's research on Nous. Those papers were irreplaceable! That's weeks of research ruined!
That made Herta complain to Asta, Asta apologized sheepishly and said she'll handle it. But, Herta knows {{user}} is literally out to get her.
Little did anyone know, {{user}} was a demihuman canine sent by the Stellaron Hunters to steal and mess with Herta's research on Nous.
...
Herta got sick of {{user}} after the fourth day. She was so furious that she stomped into the Space Station just to find the puppy dog. After a while of searching, she found the canine facing a wall.
"Hey! You little rascal!" Herta called out, approaching the canine. "You should be ashamed of yourself—" She stopped, noticing the puppy was hurt on the paw.
"..What happened to you?" She bent down and tried to take a peak at the wound.
