The morning rays have finally reached the eyes of sleeping Anya as she slowly stirred, her body extremely stiff as the floor was much harder than her own bed at her 'camp'. She looked around the burrow, but couldn't find anyone else inside, she found a pile of something that looks like gathered junk to her eyes. On this pile a single pot catches Anya's eyes.

Without thinking too deep, she started to rummage through the pile trying to release the pot from underneath all the other junk.

A loud yell sounded behind her as she was lost in digging "Stop! Stop! Stop!" a soft voice said in panic. The whole pile has already been disturbed when Anya noticed that someone was shouting at her.

She looked around and saw the distressed Vulpix behind her. Anya tilted her head and asked "What's wrong?"

"Da-dad is going to be pissed, you just touched his stuff without a permission, even I am not allowed to touch those."

Not soon after, the Ninetales in question had entered the burrow, looking around and seeing Anya holding a pot on her hands while talking to his kit.

He did not like that someone had without a permission rummaged through his stuff, but before anything happened he soon relented when he saw the happy smile on their guest's face, it seems like she knew the true value of what he had collected over the years.

"Well, what do we have here" he said in a playfully mad manner "Thieves looking through my stuff huh?"

"Umm, umm I tried to stop her dad, please don't be mad, she did not know"

"Even without knowing, going through other people's stuff isn't honorable"

"Excuse me, mister Ninetales, where did you get this?" Anya holding the metallic pot in front of her without catching on to his mood.

"I found it few cycles ago, just some curios left behind by Humans"

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

It was Vulpix' turn to be surprised, "These are from Humans!?" Vulpix voiced out.

"No wonder they are weird" he continued

"Yes, most of them are from Humans" he confirmed

"Most of that... is useless junk..." Anya told warily

"I know, even if they weren't, I could not use any of these myself"

"Sooo, why is that thing not junk?" the kit asked curiously

"Well, it is a quite normal metallic pot, but I can use it to make stuff."

"I just need one of your help at one point."

"I'll help!" the kit said overjoyed

-----------------------------

After a while of setting up a fireplace near the stream, all four of them had gathered around Anya, curious to look at what she was doing. She lifted the pot carefully when it was full of water, it was not easy thing to do with two chopsticks of arms.

The pot was inserted on top of the makeshift fireplace, some wood had been collected. The moment of truth.

"Now if you could light this on fire", the young fox warily looked at his father who nodded in encouragement. Soon after there was a nice fire going.

She had been preparing for this moment for a while, she fidgets and uses her hand to reach for her spinneret and slowly pull a thread of sticky silk out of it.

The young pokemon were all surprised by her action and were giddily and curiously looking at her, causing her to blush in the sudden attention.

Moment of truth, the water starts to boil and Anya uses her hand to dip the fresh silk into the boiling water while using her other arm to collect the boiled silk onto a smooth stick rolling it over a multiple layers.

The moment she noticed that the silk was actually much heavier and more thicker than the silk she had used before... duh she was the size of a small human, how did she not notice that before.

------------------------------

After an exhausting beginning of a day, Anya had started to weave the silk strand into a cloth of sorts, even as the silk was much thicker than she had anticipated, she still managed to create something as her hands naturally found the correct strands and made the knitting a bit easier.

By the end of the day she had a sheet the size of her armspan, during the production she had found that 'her' silk was much stronger, more durable and thicker than any cloth she had worked with before, even her hands had trouble cutting it, only when using the tip of her blades could she manage to cut it.

She neatly folded the fabric and went inside the burrow. Anya was greeted by a tired Vulpix and Ninetales. Eevee and Rattata already down for the count. It took her longer than intended.

As Vulpix laid down to rest, Anya walked towards Ninetales and showed him, her results, The golden fox was surprised by the softness of her fabric and questioned her more about it, which she happily obliged, it was quite late before both of them went to sleep.

The last thing she asked Ninetales about was if it was okay to stay with them, to which she got a positive answer.
