"Today, we will be working in groups of four." Shen Xia's science teacher Miss Gu handed over a stack of papers to the class monitor, Xuan Wu, as soon as she walked through the door. The class monitor was a glasses wearing young man who just so happened to think of Shen Xia as his rival when it came to tests. He was the legendary second placer. Always trailing behind Shen Xia by a few points.
"The pamphlet you are receiving has all the materials needed in order to build a small robot. The whole process and instructions are there for you to understand how each and every part fits together. Once you have completed what is in the pamphlet, it is encouraged to expand the programming in the robot and test your skills to add and do more things with it. Groups will be decided by those sitting around you."
Shen Xia looked over at Dai Na, who seemed to be trying to stay invisible, and tapped her shoulder, causing the girl to almost jump out of her skin and let out a squeal. "Eek!"
Shen Xia looked at Dai Na apologetically and bowed her head. "Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you."
"I-It's fine. Can I help you?" Dai Na asked. She was still nervous about talking when Quan Xinya and Lilith seemed to stare daggers into her for even looking in Shen Xia's direction.
"We will be working together for this project, so it is best to brainstorm and decide who will do what." Shen Xia replied with a smile.
"You can just assign me whatever you wish. I will make sure I get it done..." Dai Na really wished the other two would stop staring at her! The more they stared, the more nervous she got!
"No, that won't do. You will come home with us today, so we can make out our plans and decide on who does what." Shen Xia looked at both Quan Xinya and Lilith as well when she said this. She knew these two did not like Dai Na much, but as they were now a team, they would need to deal with it.
"I..." Dai Na wanted to refuse because she felt if she did, the two scary girls might beat her up.
"If Xiaxia says come over, just come over. Why are you acting so distant?" Quan Xinya asked. Her gaze was still as penetrating as ever.
"It's because you two are looking at her like that. Although Dai Na was not the nicest person around, she still didn't do anything to me personally, so don't be so mean." Shen Xia reached out and poked both Quan Xinya and Lilith, causing them to purse their lips.
"If Xiaxia says so." Quan Xinya retracted her gaze. She decided to just not look at the girl.
"Mm… If Xiaxia says it is okay, then fine."

"Master, are you sure you should be doing this? If Mistress finds out that you took a picture of her sleeping face and blew it up to hang on your office wall, she may get angry at you." Kable's assistant Cain warned.
"Why would my Fluff Fluff be mad? Look how cute she is." Kable looked at the picture of Shen Xia's peaceful sleeping face and smiled warmly at it. At least like this, he could see her every day.
"Then Master, what about this one with her tail? If we hang this one up, those who see it will get more than just a tail..." Cain's cheeks blushed as he looked at the picture of Shen Xia's tail which showed her bare thighs and part of her panties.
Kable turned and glared at Cain, causing him to shake in fear as he quickly looked away from the picture. "Cain, that picture is for my eyes only and will be mounted on my bedroom wall. So erase everything you saw just now from your memory or I will dig your heart out and feed it to the werewolf mutts in the basement."
"I will erase my memory right away, Master!" Cain did not hesitate in the slightest to tap his head with his finger causing a dim blue light to shine from the tip of it, erasing any memories of what he had just seen. After being with his master for many decades, he knew his master would keep his word.
"Mmm… Good... Now, place it over here. I will bring it back myself. As for those who saw this picture, take care of them." Kable said coldly.
"Right away, Master." Not even daring to look at the picture again, Cain quickly placed the picture down and ran out of the room. He felt somewhat sorry for the two people who did this job for him. They were going to lose their lives all because they saw something they should not have.
Kable took the picture of the shiny black tail and nodded his head. "I think I will visit my Fluff Fluff again soon and brush her tail for her again… I wonder if I should buy her a collar? I should look into this… I may just find one she will like..."
Kable had no idea his own thoughts were straying from his original objective. And these same thoughts just may come to bite him in the butt later on. But it was also his own inexperience with women that was causing him to make stupid decisions.
Humming to himself, he looked at the paperwork for the adoption sitting in front of him and smiled. "I should bring these papers for her to sign..." He now had an excuse to go see his Fluff Fluff!

"Grandma, Grandpa, I'm home!" Shen Xia yelled out as she walked into the house. But when she got to the living room she saw the one person she did not wish to see: "Gah!"
She instinctively pulled Lilith in front of her using her as a shield when she saw that damn handsome man who had entered her dreams the night before standing in front of her. Kable saw his Fluff Fluff hiding behind Lilith like a scared little fox, peeking out at him from time to time and smiled. Her actions were just as cute as ever.
