“I…Please Sly…Just please delete the email…” begged Sakura, tears in her eyes as she stared at her brother. They were standing just outside an auditorium where Sly was set to talk about his latest book to the gathered crowd. Sly only returned a confused look his little sister. “I can’t believe I did this.” thought Sakura thinking back to an hour ago.

“You’re going to love this new lingere I bought Pearl. It looks so cute on me.” said Sakura to herself as she typed the on her computer. She was sending her sister a picture through email and was just about to hit send. She opened the digital picture and looked at it before attaching it to the mail. It was a picture of her in sexy blue lingere. Kneeling on the floor, one of her tails through her legs, the other cuddled by her. The reply was instant. “Alright I got it. It does look cute Sakura. But there is one thing…Did you mean to add Sly to the email recipients? Cause you did.” read the return email to Sakura’s horror. Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at the screen for several minutes. Her heart jumped as her phone rang suddenly. She was relieved to see that it was only Pearl. “Sakura? Are you okay? Your responses are usually quick.” asked Pearl over the phone. “I’m sorry Pearl I can’t talk now. I have to stop Sly from reading that email. I can’t let him see that picture.” said Sakura panicked before hanging up. The next number she dialed was Sly’s house number. “Hello?” came a familiar female voice on the other line. “Maneki? This is Sakura. Is Sly there?” she asked hurriedly. “Huh? No. Master is giving a Q&A session at the community college about his book.” replied the feline. “He’s not home? Um…I hate to ask this but is his computer on?” asked Sakura next. “Yes. Why?” asked Maneki curiously. “I need you to delete an email I accidentally sent him.” said Sakura truthfully. “I don’t know. I could get in trouble for that.” said Maneki worriedly. “I’ll take the blame if you get in trouble Maneki. But please can you do this for me?” asked the vixen desperately. “Alright.” said Maneki going to Sly’s computer. She opened the internet browser but ran into a problem when she tried to go to Sly’s email. “Sakura. It looks like you need a password to get to Master’s email page.” explained Maneki. “A password? It could be anything. He comes up with the weirdest passwords.” thought Sakura to herself. “I’m sorry Sakura.” said Maneki truthfully. “It’s okay Maneki. Thanks for trying. What time is Sly supposed to get back?” she asked. “Master said he’d be back around six o’clock. But he has his phone with him. He could check his email from it too.” said Maneki. “Where was Sly again?” asked Sakura quickly now.

“How will the next book end?” came a question from a man in the back of the large auditorium. Sly stood in front of the audience, and raised an eyebrow confused. “I hope that was a joke question. If I told you now, that’d spoil the surprise, and I can’t do that to my loyal readers.” he replied from behind the podium. “Next question.” he said before the door in the back of the room opened suddenly, revealing a panting, and exhausted Sakura there. “If you’ll all excuse me for just a minute, there is someone here to see me, and judging by the look of her, it’s pretty important.” said Sly stepping off of the stage and walking with Sakura out of the room.

“What’s wrong Sakura?” asked Sly worriedly. “Sly. Please can I see your phone?” she asked. “Why? You have to tell me what’s wrong.” he replied. “You received an email. I’m going to delete it.” she replied. “What? I’m not letting you delete my emails.” said Sly seriously. “Did you receive an email from me recently?” she asked. “Yes. Matter of fact I should open it right now since you’re here.” he said as he took out his phone. “No! I…Sly…Just please delete the email…” begged Sakura, tears in her eyes as she stared at her brother. Things got quiet as the two stared at each other. Sly tried to figure out what was going on and why she was acting this way. He sighed to himself and tapped the stylus on the pad a few times before showing her the screen. “Alright I’ve deleted it. I honestly don’t know why you’re so worked up Sakura. The subject of the email just said that it was about your next concert venue.” said Sly putting his phone away. “Huh? But I sent that email yesterday.” replied the vixen. “I know. I hadn’t had a chance to read it since I’ve been so busy.” he said. “But what happened to the one I sent you an hour ago?” she asked confused. “I got that one too, but immediately after, I got an email from Pearl telling me it was a mistake, and asking me to delete it without opening it. I figured that it was something personal between you two and deleted it.” explained the wolfox smiling. “So…then I did all of this for nothing?” asked Sakura unbelieveing. “All of what? You’re not making much sense little sis.” asked Sly confused. “Nothing. Nothing at all Sly. Don’t worry about it.” she replied smiling. Sly tilted his head, but passed it off as an inside joke and smiled too. “Come on. You still have questions to answer.” said Sakura pushing Sly back toward the auditorium, sighing to herself. At least her secret was still safe for now.
