80 - Fang's Reputation Hits Rock Bottom

The next morning, after Ren went off to Sirocco's new office and Fang went to join his schoolmates for the day, Steward Paul and Jules took the human shaped Sylvia and the three furballs out shopping. The initial plan was for Steward Paul to take Sylvia shopping while Jules would stay at home with the furballs, but Snow, Smoke and Shadow kicked up such a fuss that the two men had no option but to take them along.

Ren had also shown Sylvia in her snake form to Steward Paul and asked him to get things needed for the snake to live at home, too. Jules, too had seen a glimpse of the snake in the morning and then Ren had declared that the snake would be going with him to work. Fortunately, the snake was small as well as shy, and liked to wrap itself around Ren's forearm under his coat and remain more or less invisible. It would probably be a disaster if Ren carried out the snake openly...humans weren't as friendly to snakes as they were to cats and dogs.
