Chapter 91: Parfait Girls Panel and The New Ginyu Force Recruits!!!

Sorry.

7:00 A.M. Sayori's POV

I hear a lute being strummed, waking me up. I hum 'Desert Moon' as I find Lucario pulling the strings. Natty is fast asleep next to me, with Pikachu sleeping next to her, and Natty's cuddling Pikachu.

"Lucario? I didn't know you knew how to play that..." I state tiredly, and Lucario looks to me, strumming still.

"I found, thanks to Lopunny, that playing an instrument can help with stress and relax the mind. I asked Monika to make me an instrument that would calm, and she gave me this, along with the information on how to play it." Lucario explains.

I smile and walk over to her before I kneel to her.

"Lemme show you a neat song I learned." I respond before showing her how to play 'Desert Moon'.

Lucario smiles at me. She ACTUALLY smiles at me.

"Thank you, Master. Learning from you is a privilege." Lucario chimes.

I hug her tightly, making her hug me back.

"You're so sweet~!" I purr, and Lucario hugs me back.

"I feel like how nice you are is... abnormal." Lucario suddenly states.

"I get that a lot. I'm just... close to my friends. Especially when they're like you." I explain, and Lucario chuckles.

"Again, I thank you. Should I wake Natsuki up for you?" Lucario asks.

"Nah. I can do that myself. Thanks, though! And besides, you need the rest and the mind-clearing. Also, I hear meditating is a good way to get stronger without training!" I exclaim.

Lucario looks at me strangely.

"Meditation? Please explain." Lucario responds, stopping her strumming.

"Be right back." I respond before I dash out of the room and go into Yuri's room quietly.

It's pitch black, but my Neko eyes make me able to see in the dark. I creep over to the bookshelf, and my ears catch someone moving to the side of me, so I freeze in place. Someone throws something at me, so I catch it and instantly wince, having caught the sharp end of Yuri's knife. I refuse to scream, so I cover my mouth, and Yuri turns on a lamp, gasping when she sees me.

"Sayori, what are you doing in here?!" Yuri whispers, walking over to me.

"I was trying to get a book, and someone throws a knife at me..." I whine quietly, and Yuri smiles at me before she slowly slides the knife out of my hand, making me grit my teeth and shut my eyes as tight as I can to bear the pain.

Yuri licks at the blood on my hand, and when her tongue runs along my scars, they heal themselves up to the point of not even existing. Yuri swallows and smiles, wiping her lip.

"You're welcome." Yuri responds, and I shudder.

"I'm sorry, but you drinking blood and NOT being a vampire is always gonna creep me out." I retort, and Yuri giggles.

"Get your book." Yuri responds.

I nod and turn to the bookshelf, my eyes scanning for anything. There are too many books to possibly find what I want. I turn to Yuri.

"I can't find it." I respond.

"Can't find it? MY bookshelf?? Preposterous." Yuri responds.

"A book on meditation?" I ask, and Yuri pulls one out of the shelf in front of me without even looking.
