Chapter 4 Maria's POV

I swung in my tire swing silently watching Burnaby reading a book in attempt to learn to speak Japanese. This was a very rare sight I've never seen him read unless it was to find new ways to swindle money from these rude people that were called humans. Since he was so excited to go maybe I should ask him for a costume change. I was extremely uncomfortable in the faux leopard print skirt and tight brown sports bra, they were tattered and dirty I hated them. It was a good risk seeing as he wanted everyone to be looking their best for this upcoming show.

I walked over to the bars of my prison and put on my best puppy face, "Burnaby? I have a question..."

Apparently I was being ignored because all I got was a grunt as he continued reading. I huffed I knew what he wanted and I was too proud to ever call him what he wanted whenever we spoke but this was extremely important.

"Master?"

That apparently got his attention and earned a shocked expression this was definitely a first for me setting aside my pride and calling him that.

"Yes my darling Fifi what would you like to ask?"

Trying not to be disgusted with myself for sucking up to the boss I smiled and in my sweetest voice I made my request, "Well I was thinking that since we're doing a show for this important man that saved the planet that I might get something nicer to present myself in?"

I practically saw the wheels turning in his head. He chewed this over for what seemed like forever until an idea struck him and I saw that signature evil smirk of his, "Why of course my sweet anything for you I'll have everything arranged the day before the show, and don't you worry by the end of the night my dear you'll be the star of the show."

I wasn't so sure I liked the sound of that I didn't like all the attention I got here so why would I like it more over there? It was all so confusing but I guess all I could hope for was some decent results for my attire. Our trip would be in 3 days time and it seemed the closer that we got the more excited and restless I became I assume that should be a good sign.
