The fencing lesson had been going well, Syx was having more fun then he had in ages and this was far better then sparing with a brain bot. Emma however had a bad habit of using far too much strength for the thin blade, so when her lunge missed she punched Syx square in the jaw. His head snapped back as he staggered.
The brief contact was gone far too soon, one dark ear turning back but immediately relaxed at the press of his cheek against hers. Humming, she wriggled a bit against him, nodding as she inhaled deeply.
“..I’m ready..” she agreed, and as she exhaled she pressed the button
When the shot hit the large shipping crate it was quickly reduced to nothing but a tiny blue cube that dropped and bounced on the ground. Syx turned and kissed her on the cheek, “Beautiful shot.”

“I want to go look at it!”
Syx sniggered at her excitement, “It’d be easier if we drove the Spe-ider Bot down to it, Tiger,” he pulled he back against him and took the controls himself, “Hold on,” with practiced ease he launched the bot off the side of the building and landed on the ground in a crouch, the hydraulics absorbing most of the shock of landing, “There we are!”
