"Ooh pretty!...I mean!...interesting..." Relizing she just said 'Pretty' for the first time in her life she shook her head at her own girly-ness coming out. Walking over to the racks she fillled through all the clothing. She really didn't know what to pick so she sorta looked around at every one else. Soon she found a variety off different clothing.A few shirts, some skirts, dresses, a jacket etc. Walking over to the chasier she handed them the clothes and some money. Soon two bags were over her arm and a little piece of paper. 'Huh..why would I need something to tell me what I bought??' Looking around she spotted Kuro. 'Hmm...quiet little thing...' Walking behind him she peered over his shoulder at what he was doing. "You're always so quiet, you know that?...."

"Huh!?" Kuro yelped and his relaxed posture turned bolt upright from where he was sitting. "Oh... It's you... I just spend a lot of time thinking..." He said quietly trying to explain why he was so quiet. He actually had no idea why he was so quiet, so he normally lied and said he was thinking. "So... What do you need next?" He asked wondering what else she needed to buy. "You could get some new shoes since sandals don't cover your feet... If you were out in the cold your feet would be freezing and frostbite is no fun...." He warned.

"Thinking huh?" Alona said in a soft tone still questioning his words. Hearing something about shoes her eyes quickly searched the area. Seeing a small shoe store she immedietly grabbed his hand and dragged him along, without a word. Halfway there she started to walk at a normal rate and let go of his hand, pointing out the store. As they walked her eyes scanned over a jewelry store. Not saying anything to Kuro and letting him continue to walk she leaned up against the glass. In the middle of the window a small silver charm bracelets with different heart, star, and butterfly shapes layed on a stand. Her eyes glistened in the silver as she became inthrauled in it. Everything she had ever bought served some purpuse..but it seemed the bracelet was just there...to be...'pretty'.... Quickly shaking her head she turned and ran back over to Kuro and into the small shoe store.

"Hey I gotta take care of something..." Kuro said once they were in the shoe store. He had noticed how she was looking at the bracelet. He walked away without letting her answer and walked into the store. He looked at the pricetag on the bracelet and gawked. "Pure silver shouldn't be that expensive!" He exclaimed after seeing it was worth one hundred fifteen dollars. He paid anyway and got it in a box since direct contact with it would burn his skin. He then walked back to the shoe store with the little box held behind his back.

Alona now had a new bag thrown over her other arm when Kuro came into the store. She hadn't questioned his actions before but instead bought to new pairs of shoes, which was practically all she needed and was now searching through different items. An heir of suspicion came upon her as she looked over at Kuro. His arms were in a strange position that in normality no one would position them in. Pushing past a couple people Alona now stood straight in front of Kuro with a tilted head. Deciding not to push her curiosity she spoke another question. "Whatcha doing?" Rocking back and forth on her feet slightly she gave a grin. Giving a small laugh she turned around and started to fiddle with some small items on the cashier counter with her three bags at her side.

Kuro was blushing and had a rare mischievous look on his face. "Well... First thing's first... Would you want to go out on a date with me? And second... I saw that you liked it sooo..." he brought the little box out from behind his back and opened it revealing the bracelet she had been eyeing at the jewellry shop. "I decided to buy it for you as a gift..." He said closing the box, taking her hand and putting it in her hand. "If you don't want to go out I'll step back in place and be a friend but keep the bracelet regardless as a gift..." He said simply.

Looking down at the box in her hand a small smile rose onto her face. She had completely lapped over what he said about a date and looked up at Kuro. She honestly didn't know what a date was so she figured she ask him later. 'Thats so sweet of him to give me a gift.....' Giving a happy yelp she jumped forward and hugged Kuro. Normally she didn't act like this but no one every gave her a gift before. The only thing she was ever given was weapons, cloth, her share of money and a hay mat. Relizing she was still hugging Kuro she quickly jumped back. She had a faint blush then remembered his other question and tryed to change the subject. "Um...whats a date?...." Asking yet another question she narrowed her eyes to the floor then back up with the little box still in her hand.

Kuro looked at her slightly surprised. "You mean you don't know what a date is?" He asked, then explained. "A date is something a couple goes on which the boy usually pays for... The date may consist of many things such as hand holding.. Cuddling... Hugging... And kissing and the like..." he explained. "A couple is a pair of people which has a boy and girl who either love each other or are going out to find out if they love each other..." He said trying his best to explain each detail though it was very hard. He pushed his hand through his black hair quietly awaiting her answer.

"L-love?...I..I can't fall in love! Cause if I do then I'll have to get married then have children! I can't have children Im only 15! I'm waaaay to young!! And In Gritchwood once you're married y-you can't get out of it. And I don't think I wanna be married or in love or having children!I'm just to young darnnit!" Alona had no idea she was blowing the whole thing out of propartion. Suddenly she relized she had heard of a date before but thought it was for people who were married or set up to be soon married so she didn't make a fuss when it was other people, but only herself. Shaking her head slightly she leaned up against the counter behind her and tryed to gather all her thoughts. All the clues were sorta clicking in her mind as she tryed to relate to other people.

"No no no! You got it all wrong! A date doesn't mean you have to be married! It doesn't mean you have to have children either!" Kuro jumped and tried to explain. "Come on and relax... Also this isn't Gritchwood..." He said calming himself down a little bit. He noticed a group of people staring and immediately became enraged. He drew one of his pistols and fired into the ground. "Nothing to see here!" He shouted after the warning shot which made them all run.

Alona didn't even flinch at the sudden gunshot.She was used to the sound of them of course and was just trying to understand things now. "Ok...so..a date is just something two people go on...too see if they like or love each other?...but if they don't its still ok...right?..." Looking around at the fleeing people she quickly stood up. Looking down at the box in her hand once more she opened the top. Pulling out the charm bracelet she hung it in front of her eyes. Another smile crept its way onto her face as she stared straight into it. 'Sure is pretty....wonder why he would give it to me...I haven't given him anything....maybe I should...I don't know...hmm...oh well...all to think about later...I suppose....' Placing it back inside its box and setting it in one of her bags she looked back over at Kuro and awaited his response.

"If they don't it's still alright and they can still be friends... Yeah..." Kuro said quietly spinning the gun on his index finger and swiftly holstering it. He took a deep breath and tried to relax. "If you don't want to... We don't have to..." He said quietly as he walked over to her and looked at her quietly with his bi-colored orbs glistening with a slightly more relaxed look. "So, where to now?" He asked tapping the toe of his foot against the floor quietly.

Shojuto walked in through the big glass double doors, the main entrance of the mall. He looked around, although he'd been here a couple of times before, it still seemed so big to him. It was even more crowded then usual, and some shops that he hadn't seen before had opened up. He turned around to see if Mizuki was still following him, and smiled. "The weapons shop is just down this hallway."
He began walking down the hallway, looking around himself to make sure that it was the right way, and making sure that he didn't miss the store he was looking for. He heard a shout from his left, it was Gary, he'd arrived. "Her Gary, how's it going?" He shouted to a large squid man, with the head of a human, but squid arms and legs, attached to a human torso. "This is my friend Mizuki." He pointed to her and smiled at him. "It's good Shojuto it's good. Buisness has been booming lately." He turned to the girl Shojuto had pointed to. "Why hello there young lady."

[Gah, sorry for the delay. xP]
Mizuki trailed beside Shojuto, glancing around curiously at everything they passed. She wanted to remember the way if she ever came here on her own sometime. She followed him through the doors, her eyes widening slightly as they actually entered the building. "Wow..." she said softly, gazing around in awe. Then she looked back towards him and nodded her head. "Alright."
She followed after him once more down the hallway now, glancing at each store they passed. She honestly didn't have much money with her though, so she was content to simply look. She paused as they made it to the weapons shop and looked around for a bit until Shojuto called to a man, who answer. At first Mizuki just stared at him blankly, but she quickly snapped herself out of it and smiled at him. "Hello, it's nice to meet you," she said with a nod of her head.

Shojuto smiled at Mizuki and looked around, noticing that Gary had been right, many of the swords that had hung from the walls were now gone, along with many pistols and other weapons that were usually on display. When Shojuto had first come to the store, he thought that having all of the weapons out like that was kind of dangerous. 'What if someone tried to rob you with one of them?' He'd asked Gary the first day they'd met. Gary just laughed, and then demonstrated his weapon wielding skills to him, leaving Shojuto in awe.
The memory made him laugh quietly, he never doubted Gary's decisions for the shop ever again, he had to admit, the man knew his weapons, and he knew how to use them too. Only a moron would try to rob this man. Looking back over at Mizuki he pointed to a row of particularly impressive looking swords and daggers. "Here, I'll show you some of the best stuff." He began walking over to some of the hangars that the swords were on, picking up one that had been his favorite, he was glad no one had bought it yet.
It was beautifully shaped, the entire thing was made out of pure silver, with a ruby at the of the handle, the blade was sharpened to perfection, and close to the handle there was jagged edges to make it look even more spectacular. "This, is the most expensive, and well made sword I've ever seen. When Gary first showed me it, I almost lost most of my saliva quantity I was drooling so much."
