AI CLUB'S SECRET | AN APPLYFIC [Closed]

Chapter 3- My Cousin's Dog Sitter

No one could find the words to explain to Chairman Phillip Everett why a human-like robot was standing in the middle of the room.

Of course, no one needed to say it was a robot, but why else would they be crowding around a regular teenage girl?

"I believe I asked a question, Mr. Harrow", said Mr. Everett. He tapped the table next to him, growing impatient.

"Uh, this is...", started Professor Harrow, very clearly not knowing where his sentence was going.

"...my...", continued Quinn, desperately trying to help Professor Harrow.

"... cousin's dog sitter!", finished Yukishiro, a triumphant grin on his face. When he saw that Bennett had balled his hand into a fist, he frowned.

"I beg your pardon?", questioned an astonished Mr. Everett.

A confused Professor Harrow tried to put together a response. "Ha ha, yes erm, sorry. This is Quinn's cousin. She also happens to dog sit for Yukishiro."

"Yes, he's the group's golden retriever", said Bennett.

Professor Harrow squinted his eyes at him, as if to question why he'd say that, but Yukishiro just grinned at this description. "Very funny, Bennett. No, she looks after Yukishiro's dog."

"Why can the boy not look after the creature himself?", asked Mr. Everett.

All eyes were on Yukishiro. His palms began to sweat as he looked into Mr. Everett's soulless eyes. "Um... dragon breeding?"

"What?", asked Mr. Everett, throwing his arms up in frustration.

"Yukishiro here has been pretty interested in dragon breeding. And the... Myths and Lore Club. He's been putting all his time and effort into researching dragon legends", explained Silas.

The others nodded in unison, unnaturally wide smiles appearing on their faces at the same time as well.

Mr. Everett eyed them all in a disapproving manner. "Very well. Why is she here?"

"She's um... she's starting here tomorrow", replied Azlan. "We thought we'd give her an unofficial tour."

"Hmm...", mumbled Mr. Everett. "Well, I shall be off now."

Everyone raised their hands and waved in unison as Mr. Everett left the room. They sighed in relief when he disappeared, and they turned back to K375B. "Right, so-"

"-One more thing!", exclaimed Mr. Everett. "I didn't catch her name."

"Oh it's...", said Professor Harrow, scratching his head.

"Katie!", exclaimed Maya. "Um, it's Katie... Katie Newman, Sir."

"What are we going to do now?", asked Bennett.

"Nothing. We can just say she dropped out. Chose a different school", said Azlan.

"Too late", said Professor Harrow. His eyes were firmly fixed on his computer screen. Everyone gathered behind it, staring at their impending doom.

Silas looked up at K375B. "Why did you fake those files?"

"You said I was enrolling here. To my knowledge, they will need to see my previous academic achievements. So, I copied over a fabricated file of my school records. I attended Moorside Primary school and secondary school. I have maintained an A+ grade average", replied K375B.

"But isn't A+ too high?", questioned Quinn.

K375B blinked, before waiting expectantly, as if she believed Quinn would correct herself.

"Uh, are you buffering?", asked Quinn.

"Miss Quinn, I have an IQ higher than any human's. If I were to go any lower they would suspect something", said K375B.

"Dámn, she smart", said Quinn.

"Heck yeah, she is!", beamed Yukishiro. "We made a walking Google, dudes!"

Bennett nudged the boy. "Shh! Do you want moonshine to come back?"

"Moonshine?", questioned Yukishiro.

Bennett nodded. "Yeah. Everett's bald head looks like the moon. And it's shiny. Keep up, Highlighter."

"So you're like the moon's craters then?", asked Quinn.

"Huh?", said Bennett.

"Craters kind of look like dips in the moon. Your empty eye sock-"

"-Ok, that's the end of that conversation!", interrupted Professor Harrow.

Bennett shrugged. "Hmm, your insults are slipping."

Quinn rolled her eyes at him.

Silas turned to Maya.
"Why'd you choose the name Katie?"

Maya shrugged.
"The only letters in the Project name are K and B. If you put them together it kind of sounds like Katie."

"I have programmed my response systems to respond to the name Katie, Miss Maya", said K375B. "I also sent off a timetable for myself. I will only be in classes that have atleast one member of the robotics club in them."

"Dámn. She really is saving our a**es", said Quinn.

Professor Harrow smiled. "You're right. We can do this. Just make sure K375B sticks to us like glue and answer any questions someone throws their way."

"We're really doing this?", asked Bennett.

Azlan nodded.
"Yep. We're babysitting a robot."
