And after a very long time I have tried again to make a complete story that I hope to finish this time and upload constantly, it is the Soft-Reboot of my universe that began the futuristic era away from the crude and warlike tone that I had been using constantly until before 2022, I hope you like it.

========================================

"I always wondered why we came from the stars... And why our people were similar to the beings of this world, but most of them weren't intelligent... Or disassemblable, but at least I had someone who guided me when I woke up and gave me a taste for creating things... I was just a little girl playing at creating machines..."

A starry sky begins to become visible as the excitement in a little girl's voice resonates in the night air.

- Daddy, did we really come from up there? -
An older but sweet voice answers the little girl.

- That's right, Kelly, but the place we came from wasn't a home like this one is... That was an inhospitable and hostile place devoid of any life, and this is the world we truly came from, but one we have yet to know.-

Kelly: And that's why we can disassemble ourselves?

-That's right, my girl. It's a gift from all our people, but I suggest you stay in one piece most of the time. You're my greatest treasure, and I wouldn't want to have to search the entire island for your head like yesterday...-

The little girl lets out a laugh as the grassy ground where both zoosapiens were lying, gazing into the night, comes into focus. The red-furred fox girl approaches to hug her father, an old owl with an ocular implant in his right eye that allowed him to deploy a lens over it to improve his vision. He hugs the girl warmly as she swishes her tail sideways.

Kelly: I know, I know... But don't worry.

I've been working on a prototype that will allow me to move without my body. You don't need to come looking for me again if I get lost during a test because I'll float back whenever I want. Harnessing our ability has many uses, but just...

The owl rubs the fox's head and looks at her apprehensively.

- Kelly, you undoubtedly have a brilliant mind, but I insist that you prioritize your own safety before testing your inventions on yourself for your own safety. It's a little strange for others to see you.... Removing parts like nothing in the middle of a harvest shift to put robotic parts on you. They're useful from what I've seen, but neither are other people ready to accept your ideas yet.-

Kelly: But Dad...

- I trust you, but it's not time yet. I know you're destined to do great things. But for now, how about you continue with your normal routine like an attentive fox and focus more on your ideas in your free time?

Also, if I finish the plans for the water collars for the amphibians soon, I'll help you a little with what I know. I know you already know about mechanics, but I can help you with the things you need to refine.-

The little girl thinks for a moment, looking up at the sky, then turns to see her father removing his left arm and holding it with his right, raising it like a stick in an oath.

Kelly: I promise, I'll be a normal fox at school and I won't get distracted by my inventions until we're home.

The owl looks at Kelly's gesture with a bit of confusion and laughter and takes her arm to reconnect it to its respective biomechanical connector in her torso.

- Well, that's my girl. Let's go to sleep because tomorrow the Alpha is going to request everyone's support for another reconnaissance trip to the human lands, and we have to be ready in case we have to monitor communications.-

Kelly: That means there won't be school, that's fine by me.

The girl yawns, and the owl picks her up and takes her to a small house built with wood and metal plates left over from what appeared to be the remains of a ship. He places her on a bed in her room. As she climbs in, guided by her wild instincts drive her around, walking on all fours before settling under the handmade cotton blanket. But before she touches the pillow, she takes her head with both hands and separates it from her body. Lifting it upwards with little force, she places it on another pillow that was on a piece of furniture next to the bed, looking at her own body, settling into the bed more easily without having a head to accommodate on it.

Kelly: This is better.

The owl looks at her again, intrigued by her strange taste for constantly disassembling herself while touching his own neck connector, but he approaches to kiss her forehead, her head on the pillow, and puts a hand on her shoulder.

- Just try not to lose this beautiful head at dawn, okay? -

Kelly: I know, Dad, but you really should try it too. There's no more pain from bad posture.

- I'll try it later. Rest easy, Kelly. I love you. -

Kelly: Rest easy, Daddy, I love you too.

The owl turns off the light in her room as Kelly closes her eyes and looks at it for a moment before leaving her room and then going to her own. In the night sky, some kind of plane or drone is visible, approaching the place, keeping watch from a distance.

"The only thing I really had in mind was to keep imagining things I could invent with what my father taught me and what I had engraved in my mind. I didn't know why, but I knew that if it worked for me, it could help other people... But I didn't count on the fact that the first encounter we would have with humans would be so... Chaotic... And that it was only the beginning of everything..."
