Hey, Hey, Hey! I'm back with an update! That's right, two chapters in one day! I felt kinda bad leaving with that pitifully short chapter, so here ya go! Be warned: there is cray Natsuki, funny Ren moment, and Shokiya and sibling fluff!

Surpress the fangirl! Nah, just let it out in a review!

Now, with out further ado:


Episode 10- Puppy Dress Up

Shori sighed as she sat in the living room, the auburn puppy in her lap. She and Miharu had located the blond mage, and he inspected Otoya. He deduced, after careful inspection, that the spell would wear off in some time, maybe a week or so. Shori had been relived, of course, but she had to explain to her father afterwards why Otoya couldn't work for a while. Needless to say, Cecil had enough punishment from Camus and Shinning, but he knew that the worse would come when Shori let out her wrath. (Dun Dun Dun)

For the time being, the author sat quietly, reading while stroking the small puppy. The door opened, and she felt the dog tense up. He let out a small bark, and Shori looked up. She shook her head, "What am I going to do with you, Oto-nii? It's just Ren."

Ren, sat in an arm chair next to her. She had taken up the whole couch- her legs laid out on it. Shori eyed the blond man. Their past experiences hadn't led up to anything good. For example, soon after their trip to Agnapolis, Shori had been walking down stairs from her dorm, hoping to get a snack before dinner. She had been stopped on a landing by the man.

Ren had tried to seduce her, and eventually backed her up to the wall. She was stuck, his arms on either side of her body. His face inches from her own, she took action. Using all her strength, Shori pushed the man back. Sadly, that meant he went tumbling down the stairs. Of course, being the nice person she was, Shori made sure he was okay. When she confirmed that he was, she promptly smacked him, a thorough message that she wasn't as submissive as a certain composer she knew.

Now, Shori knew that Ren had learned his lesson, but she was still tense around the blond. He cleared his throat, and looked at her with his crystal blue eyes. "Shori, I'm sorry about what happened to Otoyan. I should have stopped Cecil. Gomen."

Shori blinked. Was Ren being sincere? Wow, that was rare. She decided to give him a smile, "That's alright. You probably couldn't have done anything anyway. Don't blame yourself."

Ren looked pained. He turned away suddenly, saying, "Please don't look at me that way, My Lady. It only reminds me that you belong to another."

She looked at the man, thoroughly confused. 'Belonged to another?' What could he have meant by that?

"Ren," she said suddenly, "do you know something I don't?"

He looked back at her, then quickly turned away, "I-I might."

Shori pursed her lips. She had began debating the best way to get the information out of him, when another person burst into the room. "SHORI-CHAN!"

Natsuki.

Dear Lord. If having a playboy in the room wasn't enough, now Shori had to deal with the 'death-by-hugs' boy. She sighed. "Yes, Natsuki?" she asked sweetly.

"May I see Otoya?" he asked.

"Why?"

Natsuki beamed at her, "I want to dress him up in cute outfits and take pictures." He said that way to cheerfully. Shori brought Otoya closer to her chest, and eyed the crazy boy.

"I don't think Oto-nii-chan would like that very much," Shori replied.

Natsuki shook his head, "No, he'll like it a lot!"

Shori gulped. She turned to Ren. Silently, they came up with a plan. Shori gripped her book tightly in one hand, her injured one sadly, and Otoya in the other. When Ren nodded, she shot up out of the couch and made straight for the door.

As she fled, Shori heard Natsuki's protests as Ren held him back for her. She sprinted through the halls. Suddenly, she ran into someone.

Having landed flat on her butt, Shori lost her grip on her brother-dog. Luckily the little auburn puppy didn't go far. He was at the legs of the man Shori had run into. When the man bent down to pick Otoya up, Shori was met with familiar dark blue eyes.

"Tokiya," she gasped. With his free hand, he helped her up off the ground. Shori looked up at him. Giving her a small, but warm, smile, he said, "We just keep running into each other, huh? Is your prescription right for your glasses? Because I think you need them checked."

Shori pushed the said glasses up her nose, "Yes, the prescription is right. In fact, they are mostly for reading."

"Then why do you keep running into me?"

Shori opened her mouth for a smart comeback, but none came. "That's what I thought," Tokiya said, smugly. Shori pursed her lips, and glared up softly at the idol.

Ruff. Otoya let out the small bark. Tokiya chuckled, and scratched the puppy behind the ear. Shori looked at them fondly, "What are we going to do with him?"

Tokiya shrugged, "I don't know. Where should he sleep tonight?"

Shori pondered this, "Your room?"

Again, he shrugged. "Sounds fine to me, but I think he wants you." That sounded right. Otoya was squirming in Tokiya's arms. When he was set onto the ground he leaped into Shori's outstretched arms. Tokiya gestured to her hand, "How's your cut?"

Shori glanced at it and shrugged, "Fine, I guess. It doesn't hurt."

Tokiya nodded, "Good."

They stood in a comfortable silence. Suddenly, a voice floated from down the hallway, "SHORI-CHAN! OTOYA-KUN!"

Shori paled, and looked up at Tokiya, "I've gotta go. See you tomorrow!" And with that, she fled up the stairs.

Once in her dorm, Shori relaxed. While getting ready for bed, she and Haruka agreed to put Otoya in the bathroom. Yes, he may be a dog, but neither knew if he was going to remember anything that happened when he turned back into human. So, the two women took the necessary precautions.

Once freed, Otoya hopped up onto Shori's bed, curled up into a ball. She let out a small chuckle. Sitting at her desk, Shori finished a letter to her mother, telling her all the crazy events that had happened that day.

Once she was done, she sighed and looked over at her roommates. Haruka was already in bed, sound asleep, and Otoya looked at her, his small head cocked to the side. Shori chuckled, and slid into bed. Otoya lay next her, and soon they fell into a deep sleep.

Shori woke up early the next day, very out of character for her. She felt on her bed where Otoya had been to possibly cuddle with the puppy. When she couldn't find him, she shot upright. She scanned the room quickly.

The, she noticed something small snuggled up nicely next to Haruka.

Otoya. That sly dog. (For lack of a better term.)

Shori smiled though, and thought to herself that if dogs could smirk, Otoya would be.
