As the party of siting adventurers, sitting on 'Schmuck fun place' get absolute restless, mentally death or dead inside, Savii 2.0 paused the video record, still having that forced trade smile.
Of course Furtrap still wanted answer on question from his former self. "Okay, for now seriously! What is this 'all-purpose juice'?"
He looks at the Newdori and Roxxan sitting on other side of table, but it was pointless, they dint even repeated the mantra like they opposite duo from seconds before. Those two had a blue colored face with full shock expression of terror and they jaw bone had dropped as low as was possible. It was clear that their minds were filled with: 'Whaaaaaaaat????'
.
It was the maid who just played low and deliver the answer as that was one of the thing she do as a web browser assistant. "The 'Polyjuice' or know for it other name the 'all-purpose juice' is high quality potion with a month long and manual production time due to his complexity. His effect allowed the drinker to safely assume the desired form or directly take the form of someone else. But…" She observed the two. "The effect they got must turn into something unexpected. Like rare kind of side effect, unique state of stats or matter. Or an allergic reaction. But to say for sure, I will need a more that shall be found on promo note, describing the selling product."
She looks onto the kitten and her young master gets it. The calico starts search his magic bag and soon a whole net bag full of empty glass bottles entered the scene filling part of the table. It looked as someone walk through beach and collected glass bottles, but that thing was several times bigger that the kitten. And of course the crumb had a wide grin smile as it was happy to help.
The terrified duo on other side of the table glared at that hill with terror in their eyes.
.
Savii reach inside the net bag and picked up one of the empty glass bottles. As it was a magical product, the simple label on the bottle was simplified, but enchanted in useful way. The small text area that contained more info about the product was magical to contain more of the text that shall be possible. As the reader read it, it auto scroll down, revealing more informative data, and practically can contain amount that can fit into package leaflet for medicines. The one when unpacked from folding, while holding first end up, the other end will fall all way down reaching the floor describing what you can expect from this product with tinny letters. [Same effect can be archived by letting toilet paper roll to roll out.]
So she read it silently but every time she 'hmm' the trio went restless, and the kitten tilled his head on other side.
.
It was like waiting for a verdict from judge at talent exam that will reveal how deeply screwed they were. "So, it's says that this potion is meant for those without a polymorph ability. [Greatly changing not just appearance but shape, like an octopus.] Other way it can affect this ability and its use. Overdose of this potion can produce unwanted changes on appearance, hormones production, emotions and personality. It was observed that resulted appearance from overdose is not based only on the user option. That include skilled users who dint need a medium to take the desired appearance. Even if the result can look random, it was influenced by collective desire, 'higher will' or simply destiny. Intended or unintended third party influence is also possible. Normally the effect of potion will disband within day. Or a skilled user that can have more control, can undo it sooner or chose when the change will past away. It's all thanks to the difficult production. But repeat use of this potion will not extend the duration of the transformation. Instead, there is a chance for unwanted symptoms like: Partial or full change on form including the gender. Unexpected sudden changes on random intervals. Or in worst possible situation; this potion will functioning like a curse for a prolonger time... User's with multiple accounts (alts), multi-personality or schizophrenia shall be aware that they can suffer from overlapping of theirs personalities and memories. But be aware that sudden massive 'mitose' [body cell reproduction] on original form was not reported to today days. The overdose effect of the potion shall be departing in time, but that's completely individual from character to character. It can be sudden expire, or slowly weakling thought a time." The maid finished her reading and then glanced at the two as if she was their examining doctor. "Are you experiencing some of those symptoms?" Both of them flicked.
To her dropped bomb, the Newdori's weird laugh was a clear answer. "Let's say, that this intel, explain one or two things."
The Roxxan was on clearly panic and hardly keeps herself together. "Double mirrored sliding doors on the wardrobe are not dangerous at all in the morning."
Furtrap itself tried to cheer his friend's with a pun. "Buddies, your heard it, there is no need to worry about that 'T-Rex Dino' who just tried to sell us cookies a minute ago but we ignored him. You will be fine. Like those two at the movie, they fine as far I see. So if you ask me, you will be fine to. Zing!" He makes a pun pose but his effort missed its desired effect. As the two stared at him with cold glare that makes him force caught to change the tune. "Something doesn't fit on this story. How they even end up with a crate of those potions in a same room? Seriously it shall have someone who waited for it."
.
Savii was already reading some paper handed to her by the kitten, that contained the investigate report about they stay in that room. "Well… Someone misinterpret they nickname's and during the room shamble mess at night, put incorrect pair into a honeymoon apartment, intended for real groom and bride. The original pair end up in-- (some closet?)"
At this Roxxan was hasty to state question before her male companion can open his mount. "Wait! Those seriously cannot go all for Fizzi and Kurama! So, for whose that crate was?"
"Are you must questioning even this? Who else there can have a post address plate, for certain private resort printed on his right ass check. Just try to make delivery when she shaking on dance floor. But I clearly see why they don't send it into the spa on the hill, but decide to sneak it into the stadium as some kind of materials, that some technical anti-talent will hardly bother to check. But when there was actually a delivery, due to 'Easter egg event' there was a redirection and the box went into the room where the addressees will pick it up, before the owner of that address will notice it. Plus I am sure they can take a 'good care' about that cargo."
Withe furry was at this point clearly nervous. "It seems that those Lollies have more to show that can one expecting from theirs age. Maybe they stuck on that form. Or maybe, it is an effect of lot of body powder and lipsticks." Then he reaches for the TV controller himself. "But seriously!-- we shall move, or we don't get anywhere." And he force Savii to press play button.
.
.
As the record began to continue:... The Fizzi at the stadium cafeteria was starting to be obviously curios and turn toward his wife. "Wait a second! How you know about this juice?"
She instant panicked for a short moment, until she comes up with a suitable excuse. "It-- it's nothing new. B-- because it's a luxuries item, I read about it. At all, as a responsible person, I can't have on spa any too dangerous items. Or at last I must assure the minimal safety standards for the customers."
Of course her response catches attention from the male part on other side of the table. "That a little controversially, despite the fact that you have a personal militia formed out of armed children warriors."
Other demon connect on that observation. "Even if I am not a big fan of 'Geneva convention' [International law] and latter's, that for some reasons, Newdori's statement just ringing a familiar bell."
.
Furtrap notice the change of topic into even weirder direction and decide to redirect it. "Friends, please! Can we stay focused on the topic? I can tell, that we are definitely not the only source of restlessness here. And honey, you cannot be upset that someone gets wild on rare occasion. Seriously, these kinds of thing happen on any cool party."
This acted like a cool balsam on the Fox, who tried to look reserved like a proper lady. But she still give this hint that she wants to puff out her cheeks to display her (disagree) whit current situation. "Maybe you are referring at something trivial that currently escaping my field of vision. But my problem with those two are; that both of them, give a bird." The moment she mentioned this, the pair in question jumped a little. "Then those two geniuses, left behind their newborn offsprings in the room, without securing the supervisor for them. It nearly looked like they was abandoning them there." The duo flinched again. "And they don't even thought about go after me for an advice, when it shall be the first choice they shall make. But no~o! They keep it silent." And again the pair flinched from another of those fictional direct hits, that make theirs body deal with heavy impact. "No matter what you think, both of them are now mother and father." She sigh. "While I can agree that this sudden status of parent can be mentally challenging, when you will think about it, then they panic it's nothing but excuses." This time it was Fizzi who was this 'Wha~at???' expression with tilled head.
The questioning duo was still stiff, but Newdori keep they defense on this court. "It's hard to think about them as my children's to exact point when the first half hour was full of surrealism from first person perspective. And when I saw how the little fur ball was on my comp, handling the accounting of our team, whit an effectiveness worth of years of experiences, I say to myself that I need a fresh air to think. He ran my accounts so well, that he was not just pointing out my errors, fixing them on spot, but make a better corrections than I usually do. (And this one of errors was super rare and nearly unnoticeable until someone will do audit.) But this ball does it and that not something one shall expect from a newborn."
Unexpectedly Roxxan was cooperative. "For our defense, when Fizzi arrived we ask about when you will join us. But as Newdori said, the little ones showed skills beyond any expectation. And that are something that shall not be there. First, they self-feed on us just fine; even there shall be nothing for them in terms of milk. Then, I got from the little one a more than an adequate help by doing my makeup. So after half of hour of theirs rule over the room on morning, we stabilize our appearances a little (finally be able to put our clothes on) and got out. So, To say, that we had been irresponsible by not supervising them, is misleading. They had been more responsible that we can manage combined together."
The fox give them a weird suspicious look as she realizes something unusual. Then she lowered her head to look on table at those two sitting furry kittens, asking them question if they can make any testimony about themselves. Those two nodded with theirs heads and soon with they paws, the mini duo grasped toothpicks, [mini wooden stick for getting leftovers food from teeth's] using those sticks as props for swords, guns or something between them. Those two as a duet, they together make a passionate cool pose for camera, wort to be displayed on movie poster.
.
The Furtrap as entertainer got impressed by they performance. "Wow, its like seeing a miniature version of Newdori and Vr… I mean Roxxan."
His waif shared that feeling. "Indeed, but there is more to it. At this point I can assume that this current situation, extend my rule of 'not looking deeply to someone character sheet', in order to not spoil for them and myself their possible future. But, we stuck here. We reached a point where we can assumed, that a nearly higher power is on work in this game. So, there's no point of hesitate to not run a real investigation. Are here someone against it?" As she looks around, nobody make any objection. So she moves her hands above the kittens to pull out a content menu about these two, that probably only she can see and manipulate with it. As she explores their hidden stats and abilities, she frowns. "As expected, this explain everything about you neglect over these youngster." And she sighed heavily closing the menu and spreading herself on her chair. "Advanced class from start, filled up with unlocked skills to grab, accessible knowledge, and intellect they shall not possess yet. It's not that they can use most of it, but they 'tech tree' are practically preset to certain amount. Like a tunnel vision or dedicated build. They not just yours offspring's, they are yours 'legacy' born from yours pride. Supported by desire to have new clear start that you two cannot afford for yourself." She make tired sigh. "Not even knowing those details, you two subconsciously known; that you have nothing more to learn them. Then in order to not negatively influence them, you tried to set them on their journeys, so they can become you beacon of pride."
.
Furtrap raise his paw whit raised up finger to make this (eh) noise which can say: 'I have a question.' But when he saw his friends having this expression that they will go whit anything she will say or come up (or made up), he decide to lover his paw and stay silent.
As she though really hard about what to do with this situation, the rest of this group had watching her silently whir raised intense. "Okay, it will go like this! I will accept those two newborns into sanctuary in order to prepare them for they journey. In any way, they are too weak to depart right now. Additionally, even if they had unlocked they skill tree and as they will level up, they can get aces to theirs ability quite easy; they still missing certain skills I deem important. Actually, from mi point of view; they are a quite important. Especially if I know they parents." Both of the culprits make this creepy smile. "Plus those skills I speak out, will be hardly learned if they stays with theirs parents, or depart right now. I assume that parents love toward them will finally rise as they prove that they are they pride. For which one, both of them hopped as both of them currently feels; that they are not worthy of theirs child's love. So mister Newdori, miss… madam Roxxan, don't worry about losing them. I can tell that when they will be ready, they will come to visit you with a bag full of achievements, worth of the investment you made. Plus I make sure to teach them to write home letters or at last write a journal about they adventures. Or maybe make a book." As she talk about the journal and book, she saw them making another pose, and for that she added. "Or maybe play for the 'moving pictures'… a movie."
Newdori a Roxxan exchanged a short glance and as expected quickly agreed to anything this fox come up in her brainstorming.
The duo of furry kittens on table make an approval gesture as they make nearly a dance photo pose putting a big grin on their little faces. It was like they been too eager to jump into this golden opportunity.
.
But it was Furtrap again who had to ask something he should have left alone. "What about that crate of juice? Where it has come? For who and for whom it was?"
Kurama give it a hard though that her deep 'Hmmm' was heard, and the fox realize possible answer on which she was not the happiest. "It does seem that my lack of awareness, or supervision in this case, returned back to bite me pretty hard." But when she starts her line 'I will look onto it.' As for interruption of her though process, another Loli messenger showed up with another bunch of notes forcing it to the lady. But she see troughs this too convenient event and state her verdict as she grabbed that papers. "Nice try but I will not fall for this trick. Ignoring the intended purpose, the entire cauldron of that potion is too expensive to overlook it in a financial terms. It's doubtful that someone can afford it by saving every extra penny, even by working together. So my little darlings, get ready! 'I will' look at it and 'I will' get a suitable answers." Only now she look onto that note.
.
The white furry sitting next to her saw how she harshly, like a monarch, ignored the cold sweating messenger, who had this genuine 'Oh shi~it!!' expression on its face.
As she read the papers, she speaks up, already addressing a different topic: "I know about that singer's competition. It's clearly started when that singing shark girl was lurking in shallow waters of bath tub in the middle of lobby on midnight. Nearly as if it was some reverse scenario of shipwrecking on a deserted island." She speaks as she read. "I see, there lines even about her. So she is so lazy that she basically hunted passerby by scare-jumping on them, hug them and keep them captive until they don't listen to her 'heart enchanting' song. And get praised her for it. Hmm... Lately they feed her with sardines to that point, when her nonexistent scheme leads to be fed by luxurious stuff, and the bath tub become wishing well full of coins." Her eyebrow curved as she thought about it. "What, she have an identity crisis thinking that she's a mermaid? Or she got a lazy idea that she can pull this out and become idol?" Then the fox must read some request that she instantly denied. "No, we don't keeping her as a pet! Nobody will dare to let that shark into a Koi [spotty carp] pool or into spa waters." It was seems that she broadcasting her speech to her 'Sanctuary'. "Seriously I shall make a checkup on what going on rooms."
This was mean for her kids, but both stressed up demons overacted and as they answer speak up a mantra in unison with hint of desperation. "What happens on hotel room, stayed at hotel room." They instantly flinched when she reward them with angry stare.
.
As the withe furry make now only hesitant laugh of embarrassment as a reaction to his friends who was at that moment lost, the messenger hurried the lady to read all pages of reports.
As she was flipping page after page, with eyes still on the reports, one of her eyebrows raised high as if there was an interesting passage in book that she was reading. "A wooden Frigate cruising the lobby?… A ridiculously large disco-ball construction site over the stadium?…" Then she focus on something. "That come to the next point of mi agenda:-- Fizzi dear, where is yours Robo-Maid Savii?" With this question she established a feeling of somehow calm friendly conversation.
.
Eyes of Furtrap got wide open as if he on live foresaw a live memory as an answer to her question. "Oh my. I hope that someone dint seal her in a cartoon box and not shipped her somewhere. Like to Yeti, or to Santa."
But his wife missed the joke as she thought about it in practical way. "I doubt that she have so high cold resistance, to be for any use on those places at all."
In clear contrast Newdori got a wrinkle on his face. "Fizzi, please! I need to hear from you, that this was never happened!"
As if it was a hit onto the ground from flipped coin: Roxxan flinched as she received a hint of 'deja-vu' [feeling of something that has already been seen] and starts thinking about it. Trying to remember something, which shall be: (important?)
.
Then the quartet was finally into some kind of discussion. "Listen, I don't know where she is or what she is doing. Normally she does what she wants or what she asked for. I will not be surprised if she had already conquered local kitchen producing one survival wonder after another." [survive this (food) challenge]
"Well, I have now a clear image about what she was doing during the late night where most of us were busy or sleeping like a logs. It's quite interested topic, if you ask me. Want to know more?"
"After the few past events, I dare to say that we are not that much interested to know. So, we can pass it. Thank you, but no."
"Obviously, it will be something like 'Cherry boys hunter' catches a few valuable catch, but I seriously dint meant to learn her that stuff between pairs. So, she had to figure it out on her own."
.
But Furtrap give them a serious and kind of suspicious look, like he finally figures something kinky. "Wait for a moment! Roxxan has a 'Cherry boy's hunter' title? Then-- Newdori buddy,-- are you a 'cherry boy'?"
"If we think about it, he got revived by the flames of purgatory, so we can assume that this statement is correct."
But what the priest has done in respond was a laugh of pure desperation. "Not anymore!! And that in more than one way." His eyes give a hint on memory of some inexplicable [unexplainable] scene that was currently again occurring right before his eyes.
Roxxan had the same reaction. "Yeah, more than one way. I refuse to admit that all of it is my fault. Even when I still cannot process the 'trio of things'."
.
"Whyyy??? Hooow???"
"I double on that. But as I recall that on the party: I heard that Roxxan sister, miss Vronica, is actually married with someone. Have she?... Where is she anyway?"
Newdori glared at the lady. "Oh, cut out that sugar act already! You can't expect nothing to happen, when you practically lock drunken pair on fire to fancy seductive room. We have been set up. And you mistress: Are you actually expecting from a demons to follow a sacred treaty of marriage, blessed by the god? We do pact and deals. We are not obligated to follow rules that we don't agree to them. You are so mighty that this shall be obvious. So~o, are you on bubbles?, weed, catnip, or something completely different?" He turned his gaze at the other person across the table. "And you Fizzi! Add anything behind you name and you literally get a famous fizzy drink. Don't think I don't know about you secret stash."
"First of all I must state, that this genius here makes sure that during the entire weeding ceremony of mi sister, I stayed a little bit behind. Then the rules will apply only to Vronica. So even if you want to apply that rule on me, you will fail hard! I am in a gray zone at worst or best. Second, somebody here actually expect from me?: to 'not tear off that cherry'? It was an opera guy, not this one here. It was like one-per-life opportunity in more that one way. If not me, then somebody else will do it anyway, it just happened to be me. So I am double innocent, in this set up. And for the third, Fizzi darling, when you name was mentioned in front of me for the first time: I was though that there is a 'free drinks handover' promo campaign of new fizzy product. And to this day I still don't get that promised drink."
.
Furtrap take it as a compliment and smiled. "Well. I am famous and shuwa, shuwa. Zing!!" [shuwa - SFX reference of bubbles leaving the surface of fizzy drink.] [Zing – his character mark one-liner. (a short joke or witty remark.)]
But Kurama snap, and for the first time for a while she barked. And what worse, she barked at her fresh husband. "Fizzi, focus!! You maid Savii committed robbery." As she stared him into a submission she becomes a little bit sarcastic to vent her anger. "But not just any ordinary robbery. No~o!-- At the deep of night, she and her group of 'animatrons', they broke into the vault. They handle the scientific security and cameras at 100 points from 100, but they know nothing about magic. Instant sleep or other mind traps had nearly zero effect on them. But that means they ignored the magical record device or magical lock as if they don't even exsisted. What's more problematic is, that the vault was not used to store valuables, but problematic relic, product, and random stuff, which was just locked away, so they don't do any harm. Instead of stealing something they aimed for the faulty character data (on character sheet profile) 'Alternator/ changer'. And when I mean faulty, I mean it doesn't working correctly to the point that it was banned from use. Plus exploring that area of altering the data was shuttled down from a long ago." She sighed heavily.
.
Fizzi tried to say something but he was silenced by her raised up point finger placed on his lips.
"Her group-- They screwed up so deeply, that they actions resulted in a three way fights between: them, the security, and some third party that showed up on that night. Some witnesses and records declared that they were messing up around quite early. What started as a fist fight over non-existed contraband,... evolved into a war movie scene gun shooting,... while wild racing through a night,… Then when some volunteers tried, (and I quote): 'To help.'; someone tried to call a national Guard… The participants trashed so many go-cars on the track into pile of scrap, that we are out of stock. (Where they even get the tanks and other heavy weaponry?)" Then for a short moment become clearly disbelief. "(A tram train? Really??)" She shake her head to continue the summary. "Repair team still trying to figure out the entire weight of collateral damage from this event. But even now it's clear that the stadium will be closed, and it will be not just for a while. Initial report says that the track itself is so on the need of total repairs… (Rolled up like a roll of carpet...) ...that we shall tear it down and make a new one." And she sighed again trying to calm down.

[Notes, theories, and misleading explanations.]
-About that curse thing - there was certain famous training spot for martial artists, with bamboos poles sticking directly out from the small ponds. Obvious balance training if one will train his balance while jumping from pole to pole and fight his opponent in mid-flight. But none of mostly young hotheads who arrived in to this place pursuing getting better at their martial arts was informed before they went into training and fall into some pond, that the name of this place is miss interpretation. When fall into water is punished by the not removable curse of (when soaked in cold water) turning into whatever was drowned into that certain pond. (returning when soaked by hot water) And the guide was stating warnings and explanations after the facts was done. (Actually someone knocked down the sing?)
-Koi - (literally "brocaded carp"), are colored varieties of the Amur carp that are kept for decorative purposes in outdoor koi ponds or water gardens. If you see an aristocrat garden with little/low bridge over shallow garden lake and see colorful spotty fishes mostly withe - orange, withe - black, orange - red, or according to the bread, you found a nice place to relax. Any carp outside the controlled pond (in wild) are considered as a pest. Plus for humans they are not tasty at all and are considered as the food of poor, because nobody will buy them. Certain Byakuga sadly looked on his empty pond when tricky Yachiru secretly cat-fished out all his Koi's for food while wearing cat-girl costume.
