It isn't that often when Phoenix is summoned by Dr. Stearns, but, when he does, it's usually for some kind of emergency. He probably wanted her to use her powers of persuasion on another future exhibit of the Sexmusement park, which is nine times out of ten when he calls for her. You see, Phoenix has a way with words and can calm the most erratic person imaginable. She prides herself in being able to talk a nun out of her chastity. Even when her words do not work, she can use her glowing violet eyes to entrance all that looks into them. It also helps that she's almost eight feet tall, half human/half fox, and the plastic dolled mistress of the park's "Tabboo World." This places the intimidation factor in her favor, although she would be too shy to admit it.

   Dr. Stearns asked for Phoenix to meet him in the lab and to avoid the work room altogether, so she skirted along the back wall of the storage rooms and headed to the maintenance room. She entered through the open garage door and walked past the shelves of cleaning supplies and paper sundries destined for the concession stands until she reached the back wall. She turned to the right and followed that wall until she came to the back corner, where another door waited. This was a normal sized door and she had to duck and twist her large frame to go through it, and now found herself in a long hallway. She made another right turn and walked down to the next door on her right.

   This door was slightly larger that the other one she just went through, and she only had to duck down to pass. She entered the lab and found Dr. Stearns at the preparation table that took up almost the entire center of the room. He was at the laptop that he and his assistant Andrew use to program the nanite worms, the instrument that they use to transform women into attractions for the park's patrons. He was typing in the 'Hunt and peck' method, completing about twelve words a minute. He was so engrossed in his work that he didn't even notice that Phoenix had entered.

   "Good morning, doctor," Phoenix coyly announced with a grin, "You called?" Dr. Stearns jumped from the sudden break in the silence of the lab, but he quickly composed himself.

   "Oh! Oh, hello, Phoenix, thank you for coming so quickly," Dr. Stearns replied as he pulled himself away from the laptop, "I have a bit of a situation." Just then a ruckus was heard from the next room over.

   "You'll never get away with this!" a woman's voice was heard yelling from the work room, just beyond the double doors at the other side of the lab, "You'll never silence me!" Both Phoenix and Dr. Stearns turned towards the shouting and listened to the rant, and then the doctor simply shook his head dismissively.

   "Am I to take it that's the situation?" Phoenix asked with a sigh. She knew that she was being summoned because of a problem, and it was becoming tiresome for her.

   "Yes," the doctor glibly replied, "Tony and Clive brought her in last night and strapped her to a table instead of using one of the cages. They knew no one would be working on her until this morning, and they knew the nanites that froze her in place would wear off after forty five minutes..."

   "You really must work on that," Phoenix interrupted in a passive-agressive tone.

   "...Yes, it's on the agenda, please don't interrupt," the doctor cautiously reprimanded her, "They had her all prepped for this morning, but ever since she has been able to talk, she has done nothing but scream threats and insults at everyone she sees. Andrew had a difficult time drawing a blood sample from her, despite what she said about his manhood. The woman appears very intelligent but she does need some lessons in male anatomy." Phoenix placed her hand over her lips to help her hide the broad smile after hearing this. She is not a big fan of Andrew, so any correct or broad insult she hears about him gives her great joy.

   "The problem is that Andrew had left for the day," the doctor continued, "He could have this done in about a half hour, but he requested some time off to see his Mother at the hospice, and he had to catch a train. He won't be back until tomorrow, and I can't let this wait until then."

   "So you desire that I talk to this woman, and calm her down some?" Phoenix asked while still smiling from the Andrew insult, "I will see what I can do. Tell me a little bit about her." Dr. Stearns nervously cleared his troat as he motioned for Phoenix to sit down on a nearby stool. She obliged, and, as she took her seat, the doctor began to nervously readjust his tie. Phoenix knew enough about human behavior that these signalled that the doctor was going to tell her something she really was not going to like.

   "Well, ther is a particular councilwoman who is 'Friendly' with the sherriff," the doctor began as he kept shifting his weight from one foot to the other, "She complained to him that a LGBT activist was harassing the resturaunt staff that she owns. Apparently, it's legal for businesses in town to discriminate against 'Alternate lifestyle' couples, and the woman in the next room led a protest against the resturaunt." Phoenix's eyebrows immediately furrowed and she crossed her arms over her massive breasts in anger while she fidgeted in her seat. Dr. Stearns took a nervous but precautionary step backwards. Phoenix was beginning to smell fear emanating from him, but he shouldn't have anything to fear from her, and she tried to reassure him.

   "Please, continue," she calmly said but with a gruff voice. The doctor swallowed hard and then continued.

   "The councilwoman wanted the woman arrested for trespassing, but the sherriff said that the woman didn't do anything illegal that he could see," the doctor added, "The councilwoman was adamant, and she said something to the sherriff that made him call us. He insisted that we resolve this matter for the congresswoman, so, we are. We need his help to stay in business, that's the only reason we're doing this, I swear!"

   Phoenix sat there silently listening to everything Dr. Stearns had said. The more he spoke, the more infuriated she had become. She has a strong distaste for bigots, and homophobes are the worst kind to her. Dr. Stearns knew this already, and that's why he was afraid while he told her the story. He was worried for his own safety! There's nothing Phoenix loved doing more than taking a female homophobe and introducing her to the pleasures of the feminine flesh after they were transformed. Still, this situation had become caught in her craw. The woman in the next room was going to be transformed into a sex toy just because she spoke out for the rights of others. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Finally, she jumped off the stool and asked one blunt question.

   "When is the councilwoman going to be brought in here?" Phoenix coldly asked with frightingly steely eyes. The doctor immediately threw his hands up in front of him, as if he was trying to stave off an attack, and repled with the most sincere honesty he could muster.

   "It's in the works, I promise!" he quickly stammered, "We can't just grab her off the street; she's a politician constantly in the spotlight!" He took two steps back until he bumped into the table behind him. Although he created Phoenix, he did give her complete autonomy over herself. That was their agreement, and it worked out better than he had hoped for the longest time. This time, though, was the first time anything had truly angered her, and he didn't know how she would react. She could kill him easily if she wanted to, like Frankenstein's monster eventually did to it's creator, but she didn't go near him. Instead, she stood still in deep thought.

   "I will see what I can do," Phoenix finally ordered with a hint of anger in her voice, "I do not appreciate the reason why this woman is here. I am only doing this under the premise that you are going to have that councilwoman in this room in less than a month. That is our agreement. Do you accept these terms, doctor?" Dr. Stearns slowly took a few steps forward as he wiped some sweat off of his forehead. He was a little worried there, and he would be more than happy to accept her bargain. He didn't like homophobes either.

   "Yes, my dear, anything you wish," Dr. Stearns replied with confidence, "She will be here within thirty days, I promise." Phoenix's demeanor softened a little as she nodded in agreement at the doctor. She released her crossed arms and started towards the double doors in slow measured strides.

   "I will be right back," she announced as she placed her pawlike hand on one side of the double doors, "Do not do anything with regards to her reprogramming until I return." She looked back to see the doctor nod in agreement, and then she went into the work room. She pushed on the door and ducked down to pass through from the lab into the work room, and the first thing she heard was another threat.

   "I'VE GOT FRIENDS THAT'LL SEARCH NIGHT AND DAY TO FIND ME, AND THEY'LL END THE LIVES OF ALL THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR KIDNAPPING ME!!!" the woman strappedd to the table screamed at the top of her lungs when she saw movement by the door. She probably figured that a tough exterior and berating her captors would accomplish positive results, but they never do. The only thing they do is embolden the captors or irritate them enough to do something rash.

   "YOU'LL CURSE YOUR MOTHERS FOR GIVING BIRTH TO YOU BY The time... I'm done..." the woman's voice quickly trailed off when Phoenix stood up to her full seven foot nine inch, 44F-26-38 inch frame. The woman's mouth dropped open, and it was either Phoenix's intimidation factor revving up or the woman had just fallen in love.

   Phoenix looked at the nude woman strapped down spread eagle on an inclined table over by the row of cages, and she felt a stirring inside of her she had not felt in so many years. The woman had shoulder length dark red hair, a little darker than her own. She had a strong, round face with a button nose and pouty lips. Her crystal blue eyes lit up the whole room. She was about five foot six inches tall and had flawless, creamy white skin. She had 32D breasts with areolas the size of a quarter, a 25 inch waist, and 34 inch hips. The cold room made her nipples stand at attention, and the perky little nubs were the size of 'Juju Beads.' Her vulva was shaved clean, and she had a pair of dainty yet perfectly manicured feet with strawberry red polish on her toenails. Phoenix's heart skipped a beat.

   "Oh...Wow..." The woman gasped as she looked at the impressive example of womanhood standing before her. She looked Phoenix up and down, trying to drink in all that she could see. Phoenix was wearing what looked like a fire red tuxedo jacket with long tails and edged along the seams with gold lame'. Underneath that she was wearing a white cotton plunging V-neck blouse with gild buttons down the front that only went down as far as her midsection, making it look like a cross of a business shirt and a belly blouse. She had on a pair of tight red hot pants, a lighter shade than her coat, with red fishnet stocking running the entire length of her legs. Her size 22 feet were wrapped in six inch black platform boots that zipped up to her mid calf. Her fox ears twitched nervously in between the tufts of hair on her head, and her fluffy red tail swished playfully back and forth behind her.

   "Who...Who are you?" The woman asked with trepidation in her voice, and her mouth hung open again after she stopped speaking. Phoenix warmly smiled as she slowly stepped towards her, the platform boots clacking on the cement floor with each step she took.

   "I am called Phoenix," she playfully replied as she approached the woman. The woman never took her eyes off of Phoenix as she approached, and her eyes became wider as the seconds passed. Phoenix came close enough to reach out her right hand and gently placed the claw from her index finger underneath the woman's chin.

   "Tell me, little cub, what are you called?" Phoenix asked in a sultry voice as she gingerly closed the woman's mouth for her. The woman gulped but still kept looking at her. It was at this point that Phoenix noticed that this woman had not blinked since she entered the work room.

   "I'm... Uh.... I'm... I'm Petra," the woman finally stammered. Phoenix smiled more broadly when she heard the woman's name, and then Petra returned the smile to her. Phoenix then noticed that Petra' heart beat was slowly increasing. She lowered her claw from the woman's chin and was about to lower her hand to her side.

   "You're very beautiful," Petra announced suddenly, making Phoenix blush. Petra herself then started blushing too, but mostly out of embarrasment. She couldn't believe she just blurted that out loud! She turned her head away from Phoenix and slammed her eyes shut in shame of herself. Phoenix simply let out a little giggle, and then stroked Petra's cheek with the back of her hand.

   "Why, thank you, Petra," Phoenix replied graciously in a reassuring voice, "It is not very often that I am told that with as much sincerity as you had just done. I can tell that you said that from your heart, and I really do appreciate it." Phoenix bent at the waist and lowered her head the two feet distance so she was almost face to face with Petra. Phoenix believed that the eyes were the window to the soul, and she wanted to look into Petra's. Petra looked deeply into Phoenix's violet eyes in return.

   Phoenix found a soul that was generous, gentle, wise, ferocious, fierce, feminine, loyal, loving, and determined. It was a soul that wouldn't necessarily agree with what you say but would fight to the death for your right to say it. It would make her spend her last dollar to buy a warm cup of coffee for a homeless person on a cold night. It would make her be there for a friend through thick or thin. It would also allow her to give her heart freely to a woman who would be committed to her. She determined that Petra was truly a rare find, a person who tends to think of others before herself, and one who will fight tooth and nail to make sure everyone is treated the same. Phoenix felt like it would be a good idea to keep her around.

   Petra gazed into Phoenix's eyes and found the most beautiful shade of violet she had ever seen. It gave her the impulse to kiss the taller woman, and she didn't fight the urge. She quickly cocked her head to the side, darted her head forward, and gently planted a kiss on Phoenix's lips.
