It was a rather boring day for Jack and Demi. The sun shined,the wind blew playfully and yet the two refused to get up and do anything at all. They two just sat under a old tree complaining to each other. About what you might ask well lets listen shall we?

"My ancients this is boring." Demi said rolling her large yellow eyes. "Nothing to do, no cave to explore no ancient swag to dig out of a cave, no one to even pester. Man you made my life boring Jack."

"It is not my fault you are bored." Jack said in a rather pleased voice. "I'm perfectly happy sitting here, If you don't want to sit here that is fine. Go off and do something."


"yeah, than you'll go off fighting some Old world horror without me, I do not think so pinkie. I'm siting right here til you move and actually do something."

Demi,glared or a long time, til she felt rumbles in her midsection. Demi was hungry, however the nearest village to sang food from was a good 5 miles away and well, without Jack she knows they would tie a rope around her neck in a matter a seconds. Just then something odd caught Demi's eyes. It was a cookie of a sort. Demi picked It up and smelling the thing, It smelled like a moss dough and as Demi stuffed It in her mouth It tasted like one aswell. Demi than saw a trail of moss dough cookies , she figured a small must of dropped them, so by Demi's logic If It was on the ground It was fair gain. Demi proceeded to bounce to each cookie, nibbling them as she picked them up, til she came to a plate full of moss doughs. Demi was not born yesterday and clearly saw that this was sort of trap, beside she had her fill of sweets so she figured she would go back to the tree. However as she turned her back, She felt a hand grab her shirt collar and drag her off. Demi tried her best to escape only for more hands to drag her off, before she went completely into where the hands took her she let out a massive yep. Which she hoped would wake up ShuffleDeck.


Jack opened his eyes, waking up from his nap.Seeing the lack of Demi fuz on the tree. Jack thought for a second as to where his wolfie friend went as his eyes caught a moss dough infront of him. Jack picked up the cookie and shouted. "Oh, look a cookie!" Jack then saw a path of cookies leading away from the tree to a darker part of the woods. Jack thought for a second about It being a trap, however he figured demi just stole a plate of cookies. So Jack started to pick up a sweets as he followed the path, getting much to a plate similar to the one Demi saw. Jack saw the plate, at first her looked puzzled but than he desided to stuff all the cookies he was holding into his mouth. With a few crews and sallow Jack asked himself. "Why did I do that?"

Jack then lefted the plate to see If there was something wrong with It or a trap of a sort. Only to feel himself get pulled by the legs. Jack as quickly as he could try to overpower the grips, but to no victory. The hands drag him off to who knows where.


With in a matter of time Jack and Demi where face to face with a odd Machine and many small mechial eyes. "organic?" the machine asked.

Jack anwser "I think so?"

Demi respawned "With who wants to know?"

The Machine then answer "We are Book, we studyall things. This one is designed to study life. Organic life. We have saw that your world has lvl-075 grade tech yet never use It. We are curoius why?"

"O75?" Demi asked.


"Plasma, and laser and teleportation."

Jack eyes got big as the robot stated this. "Oh, that was E-tech, a group called the enlightment came long ago, we kind of pushed them out of ourworld."

The machines eye grew large by this answer. "So, your tech lvl is what you are wearing now?"

Demi raised her hands "Pertty much." Not really sure why the robt cared.

"oh, my this first time I've seen lvl-003's who did not overracted, tell me what do you do for fun?"

"Fun?" Jack asked puzzled.

"yes."

"Well, we dance, sing, eat, talk.." As Jack kept speaking to the machine, smaller bug like bots stared crawling on Demi. Demi swated and shacked trying to get them off of her. Jack then turned and ask. "um, what are you doing to my friend?"

The Machine respawned. "We are just curoius. we have never seen your kind before at such a low level. Your clothing or lack of is different to us, we want to learn more."

Demi then yells. "Well, stop. I'm not in the mood for a tickling right now."

"tickling?" the Machine says puzzled. "What is tickling?"

Demi and Jack stare at the Machine then stared back at each other. "You serious?" Demi asked. The machine noded, as the two stared to chuckle a bit. "I fail to see the humor in that." The machine respawned.



Jack then scretched his head and said. "tickling, is a..well..hm...It is hard to explain, do you wish for me to show you?"

Demi glared at Jack and griped her claws to his sides to tickle. "Howabout I show him instead." Jack let out a roar and a few giggles followed.

The machine still seemed puzzled. "You just laughed, other than you touched him which caused the laugh."


Jack after pushing Demi off explains his best. "It has to do with I think, sensativity?"

The robot eye grew again. "really? explain please."


"well, I'm a lizard of a short and from what I know. Most lizards are ticklish around the underbelly and neck area where coloring is different, much like most Woven are ticklish the foot pads mainly."

"Why do you say most?'

"Because their exspections. For exmaple my toes are ticklish, I do not know any other lizard like that. And Demi, and abonormal in the fact, her belly reigin is abonormally ticklish for Woven standers."


"how do you know that?"

"Because, tickling is something I do."

"But why?"

"I'm not sure.."

The robot put Its talon to Its eyes and ask. "Can I study you two?"

"For what?" Demi asked.

"To learn more about this, I think I got the idea. But I'm not sure, It would help my studies greatly."

Jack and Demi stare at each other for a bit, after a agrument and degbate they agreed to aid Book on It's quest. After talks of explaining their soft spots and everything about them the striped as far as they where willing and let Book do what he must.

After sometime book learned that their laugther was creating a energy, after a bit of of sudy he learned, his tech could run on It. After a bit of explaining the two had to endure more tickling then intended.

Demi and Jack managed to get out but, they where red in face as well as the boodies, even Demi said If she shaved of her fur, she may have been a hue of pink like Jack.
