Sorry for taking so long to write again. I'll try to do better at writing more chapters sooner.

Chapter 18: With the Other Pets.

As soon as Iason and Riki left the pet apartment all the pets gathered in a circle. The females were all going gaga over how gorgeous Riki looked. But the males weren't too happy with the new comer that wasn't going to be with them. And if what they heard from the whispering furniture, the new comer was a mongrel. And he was higher than them. They were outraged with that thought. Enyu was so enraged with the thought that he won't be his master's personal pet.

As the pet's were talking to each other, the furniture were talking excitedly congratulating Cal on his luck for becoming the first furniture to be a personal pet furniture. They just couldn't believe that the pet was Riki. But they could understand why their master would want him. Everyone how saw Riki want to be with him. Even they would like to be with him if they could.

Cal was on cloud nine. He was going to be able to look after the person who saved him so many times while he was in Guardian. He had always admired Riki; and, now he will be able to spend a lot of time with him. This was a dream come true for anyone who know Riki.

The females just kept going on and on about what they would like to do with Riki and hoped to be able to have a child with the new exotic pet. Which they knew would never happen. But they could always dream about it.

As for the males. They were still angry that the new one had everyone's attention and was disrupting their everyday life. But the one that was the most upset was Enyu. He had been doing everything he could to get his master attention by being the best pet he ever had.

As soon as the doors closed Iason turned to Riki.

"Why did you not stay? I would have thought you would want to get to know them?"

"Will for one thing it's not like I'm going to see them much. And for another thing that cat boy was glaring at my. And I for one didn't want to get into a senseless and easy fight. Plus they aren't too bright. I would get a better conversation with a plant." Was Riki's reply.

Sorry for this short chapter. Please review.
