Kri and I AKA I bugged out AQ40

So last night was my guild's "Old Raid night", which is what my friend and I 'host' and we take guildies to get old achievements, mounts, and just overall complete old stuff. Well after killing OS3D, Ony 10m, parts of Ulduar and Tempest Keep; we decided to head down into AQ. I needed AQ20, so we got that out of the way. We then went into AQ40. So we're running around AQ40, just the 4 of us now as it's really late.

And then we get to the bug trio. And I just see this totally awesome orange silithid. I knew then... I had to tame him.

Now just to give an idea of how significant this is for me: I HATE BUGS. I can't stand most silithid pets and don't get me started on spiders. My NE hunter only uses feline and canine-like beasts, (my draenei hunter though, she's cool with raptors) so for me to get attached to an orange bug... big deal. XD

Anyways, so I tell my friends, don't kill Kri.

I distracting shot, pull him away and hit tame-

He decided to run back to our DK. I distracting shot again... and he ran away again. So cue us laughing our butts off as Im trying to get threat off a tank who is literally not even moving cause he's laughing too hard.

FINALLY, I got to tame my pet :D I HAVE KRI!

Hey wait a minute... he's like 3x my height and glowing. I then realized he still somehow got the "vengeance" debuff when we killed the other two... and he... still devoured them.... (suddenly, I'm scared of my own pet). So I dismiss him and the encounter resets. We laugh it off and kill them normally.

And now we're stuck in combat.... so cue the tank jokingly giving me hell over "breaking AQ40" XD We did, in the end, finish it. Woohoo! And the buff did eventually go away (I kept him dismissed/out of combat when he had this bug[which is why there's no screenshots of him in AQ40]. I couldn't wipe it off so I just waited for it to go away).

NEEDLESS to say, I gotta admit, he's a handsome devil! So I guess it just goes to show ya. Sometimes the thing you don't think you'd like... can really surprise you O_o I named him Kri cause I had a lot of fun yelling "LORD KRI" when I used call pet while he had the debuff in Stormwind XD

Awesome! He's a really nice looking bug. I have the blue one. His name is Huckleberry and I use him for PvP. :P
