Supermarkets were veeeeeeeeery big places. And walking to one on your own could be scary. But the tanned skin boy in his black body suit was confident as he entered the large sliding doors in search of a special treat. Behind him, he pulled a cart borrowed from one of his neighbors when she did her shopping. He'd taken his Dad's wallet and the grocery list on top of it and took a bus the six blocks to the store.
It wasn't a case of kids wanting to be independent or wanting to get stuff they couldn't have and stealing. Shy was genuinely trying to help. His father had a lot of work to do, since he was an acrobat and in a huge Christmas show. His Papa, meanwhile, had just had a baby and was busy caring for her. And Nero? Well he was very little and took lots of naps. So, because they were running out of some food - his Dad had been too tired the night before to go shopping - and especially out of Juice (his Papa's faaaaaavorite drink), the boy had decided to just do the 'responsible' thing and go to the store. Now he was just walking down the aisles trying to find the things he needed.

A little green woman and a rather dolled up red head walked into the super market. The little green woman named Jade walked with a skip and hop "Now Marcy you are here to find things for the luau sooo make sure you pick things your friends will like" she had a list in her hands for things she was going to buy for the farm.
Marcy rolled her eyes at Jade , she had good tatse in food so she wasn't worried. She walked over to the carts and started to push one. Jade was too small to push the cart so Marcy volunteered with out being told.
Jade rushed over to her " Make sure to use the disinfectant wipes Marcy , you have no idea who or what pushed that" she scolded her.
Marcy found her eyes rolling agine " yes Marry" she giggled. The kids gave her that nick name after Mary Poppins. Jade looked rather unpleased at that comment.
" Come on now , we have no time to waste , time is money you know" the little green woman started to move. Marcy followed with a "Omgosh did she just say that" face. They walked into the store.

Shylock was in the process of reading the big signs that said what was in the different aisles, his tail flicking, when it caught on a passing cart. Glancing over, the pride boy looked embarrassed to see the spikes stuck in the metal.
"Sorry miss." he said sheepishly to the girl pushing the cart, a little redhead about his age. "I didn't realize you were passing so close when I moved my tail. Really sorry about that."

Jade kept walking as the cart stalled " Miss.Mar....." she stopped talking as she realized what happened. She rushed over to the boys aid " Here let me help you get that out" she started to get the tail out of the cart. Jade might be a prude little thing , but she is also vary kind.
Marcy gave out a yelp as her cart came to a stop. The smaller cart handle went right into Marcie's belly. She couldn't talk much since the wind was pushed out of her , she wasn't in any pain. The wheels on the cart are made to lock up when something gets in them, just so they don't run over tails or what not. If Marcy realized the tail got stuck she woudn't have kept going , and woudn't of walked herself into the cart.
Jade looked up at Marcy then to the boy " I think its more her fault then yours" as she got the tail out. She didn't touch the spikes of his tail just the tip at the end.
Marcy nodded at Jade's comment to say "Yea , that was on me" , she was still catching her wind.

Shy smiled, "No, I should probably have been watching where I was moving my tail, I could've hit someone." he pointed out.
Turning around fully, the boy bowed a bit to them - careful not to hit his head this time. "I'm Shylock by the way. Who might you two be?" Might as well make an introduction, right? They seemed nice enough anyway and the lady'd helped get his tail out.

Quick to comment Jade spoke " My name is Jade , I work for master Night and this is one of his adopted children Marcy" it was clear she had this speech well rehearsed.
Marcy playfully rolled her eyes and mimicked Jade talking " That would be me the adopted child Marcy...." she giggled. She walked over to an organic pineapple end cape. She took a big sniff then snagged one from the far back then brought it back to put it into her cart.
Jade looked over the pineapple " Yes this will due for the tea's" she lightly smiled.
"Daaa Jade , you know I have keen smell , it’s not hard to pick the freshest for me" Marcy stated. Marcy was learning to use her gluten abilities for the better good , and smelling foods for mold or mildew was one of the few things she could do. She looked at the boy " Sorry for the dialog there" she learned that line from one of her sister " So what you getting" she asked.
Jade started to look around for his parental.

Shy was a little dumbstruck by the pair for a bit. They were sure...interesting. He'd met his fair share of people who were odd or who spoke oddly but sometimes it just hit him how strange people could be.
"What? Oh! I'm sorry, I came to get juice."

A smile formed on Marcie's face " Hey we need to get juice too" they needed coconut and pineapple juice for the party plus all the other drinks for people on the farm.
Jade was concerned " Where is your guardian dear" she asked.
Marcy smile fell from her face , she hadn't thought about his parents yet. Now she was looking over his body for any other cuts. She didn't want to get into trouble , like she did when she was with Morissette at the music shop.

Shy blinked, "Huh? Oh, they're at home." he assured them with a wave of his hands. He wasn't hurt or running away or any of that. "My Dad was at work and since Papa's been busy with the new baby, I came out to get some groceries we needed." He didn't elaborate too much beyond what was necessary - it was no one's business that he nabbed his father's wallet and the list to do this, or sneaked out without permission.

"Wow you get to go shopping by yourself" Marcy said shocked. She hardly got alone time in public. On the farm she got plenty but when out and about she had someone with her 98% of the time.
Jade didn't believe the boy but who was she to say anything to spawn, she wasn't in charge of him. She just looked at brown boy with a grumpy smirk. She then turned to Marcy " Well lets get to the juice then" she stated.
Marcy smiled " Want to come with?" she asked.

Shylock shrugged. "Sure. I'll go with. We're going to the same aisle anyway." the other agreed, walking along with them, but being sure to keep his tail wrapped around him.

Marcy shrugged at him " yeppers might as well" she giggled. As they walked over to the juice she picked up a few things on end caps like party cups and toothpicks. When she saw the pine apple juice she skipped over to it she sniffed a few times " Ohh Jade lets not get the 'Gaia's Best' I think they use ..." she sniffed a few more times " They for sure use a large mettle grinder .... it smells of it" she glanced to her.
Jade sent her a wink " Well then Miss.Night please pick one that you feel is most pure" she smiled.
Marcy walked around and went to the juices in a cooler she opened it up and picked a juice from a farmer up in the Gambino Islands , it didn't have GMO's and juiced in a eco friendly juicer. She placed it in her cart " Soo what juice are you getting?" she asked the boy.
Jade was off getting the normal Marcy apporved drinks for the farm , as the two talked.

Shy looked at her like she was weird. "How do you smell where it was juiced in from outside of the packaging? You're not supposed to open them in the store you know, that breaks the seal and makes them not fresh for people who do want them." he commented, looking utterly confused. He'd only seen Marcy's back while she did this and only heard part of what she said.
"And what's wrong with a large metal grinder for juice?" he inquired, going to pick out the brand of OJ his Papa tended to like best, rather than what the girl deemed the freshest brand. He push several jugs of it in his basket and stood up again.

The store got alot brighter as Shy asked Marcy about her powerful sniff. It must of been from the solar panels the store used. Marcy shaded her eyes as she spoke " Ohhhh I'm kind of speaical ... soo I can smell things better then most people, so I don't even have to open things to smell them" she noted.
Jade looked at all the juice Shy dumbed into his cart , once agine her parental sence tingled but she didn't say anything "Marcy has a keen sence of smell , thats what she is trying to convey" Jade wasn't able to tone down her dialog for children , it wasn't in her nature.
" Yea..... like that makes anymore sence" Marcy giggled. She walked over to Shie's cart " Well when people use grinders you don't get all the good stuff you need for .... umm... a strong body" she smiled " but thats just my choice , other people don't have to follow me , huuhh Jade" she said with a sarcastic tone.
Little green hands flung up into the air " Now Marcy .... its true other people don't have to eat as healthy as you and your father do" she tried pushing the cart but it woudn't budge " Come on Marcy we need to keep shopping" the green women stated.

"It made sense the first time. Or as much as it's gonna." the child said with a shrug, pulling the list out of the pocket of his suit. "Mmm gotta get eggs next." Shy commented, heading in that direction. Health of a food was a matter of opinion and Marcy's wasn't one he cared to hear about. Anyway, her nanny lady said they had to keep going and she was kinda weird to Shy.
