Destiny peered into the freezer and sighed. They’d both been so busy lately they hadn’t had a chance to get out to fill the cupboards. She was busy with the bar, the Negaverse, and then trying to fit in some personal times with her girlfriend. It meant something to her to keep Karma happy and after she thought she’d been cheating before she was corrupted Destiny was not going to let things fall apart.
“Karma!”
She moved into the living room and looked for her girlfriend. They had time for shopping, if they wanted to go.
“Do you wanna go to Costco?’ She broke into the verse from one of the songs from Frozen, singing it loudly through the apartment. “Let’s go find some things to buy.”
She chuckled, moving through the apartment to find the other woman.
“Our fridge could use some food inside, come on let’s ride; what do you say?”
She found her in the study, working on something artistic, no doubt. She leaned against the door frame and a smile touched her lips.
“Come on let’s go to Costco.”

Karma had been lounging on the sofa. If one could call it that. Legs crossed of so delicately at the ankles were thrown up over the back of the sofa, her body laying on the seat and head dangling in the air, pointed towards the ground. She also held a pastel pink nintendo 3DS in front of her face. Yeah, Karma was a little weird.
She blinked at her lovely girlfriend, upside down from the sofa, and smiled. She was always up for their particular brand of goofiness, and she wasted no time bursting into the tune that they were both familiar with. For, was not disney movies, a staple of their mandatory date nights?
“ We used to have full tummies, but now we don’t, I wish you would tell me whyyyyyy~ Do you think they will have samples? Maybe even of some snapples. “
Karma gracefully dislodged herself from the sofa, by sort of…. flailing… and sliding / flopping to the floor, scrambling to her feet, chucking her her DS onto the cushions… and then bolting across the subterranean apartment, giving her girlfriend a ready for anything grin
“ Okay BYYYYYYEEEE “ She said, running literally right out of the apartment She was COMMITTED. Though it wasn't clear if she had forgotten her purse on purpose or not.

Destiny chuckled, happy that Karma was going along with her antics as usual. She gently picked up her girlfriend’s purse on her way out, knowing it would be forgotten where she patiently deposited it every time she came home. They had a table for things like this. She picked up her keys and made her way out much slower than her counterpart.
It didn’t take long to cross town to the big box store. She flashed her card as they entered and pulled a cart from the line. They were surrounded by stuff. So much stuff, in fact, that it was always a little overwhelming to her. Sample ladies were out in droves with different things for them to snack on. She bypassed the electronics and moved to food.
“Where should we start?”
The freezer section was in back so she started at the front, turning their cart around the corner. Another customer ran right into her, shocking her with the jolt of the carts.
“Hey! Excuse you!”
He didn’t acknowledge her or even turn around as he steered down the aisle with his full cart. She started fuming immediately.

Karma had been completely enthralled. She always enjoyed going to costco, even on the rare occasions they didn't even buy anything. Sometimes they just came for lunch. If one was crafty you could have an amazing lunch date for under 10 bucks. There was a science…. no... an art to the order menu of costco.
So she almost didn't notice someone bumping carts, it happened all the time at costco, the unique factor was Destiny's angry outburst.
Which had Karma snapping her head to attention.
And without warning Karma was stomping after the man who had turned into the lightbulb and battery isle, which of course was empty as a ghost town. “ Hey asswipe, did you just hit my snickerdoodle with your cart and not even say sorry? “
And she didn't know what had happened, but sometime between when she started talking after turning into the isle and between when he looked at her, she had powered up, and she was no longer Karma. She was Lt. Onyx, of the negaverse.
And she was currently indignant and puffed up like an angry little cockatoo. She was always one to talk with her body language when she was upset.

Destiny knew her lover tended to be a bit more impulsive than she was and was quick to defend the ones she loved so she was not surprised when Karma went stomping off after the offending man. What she was surprised about was Lt. Onyx making an appearance. They were not man-haters, of course, though she’d been accused of it before by narrow minded men trying to hit on her. Rudeness, however, could not be tolerated.
Oh holy hell.
This had the potential to get very well out of hand, especially since the ma in question was spending more time laughing at Karma’s outfit than making apologies. She sprinted ahead and transformed in her run thinking that she couldn’t compromise her girlfriend’s civ identity.
She ran up just in time to hear “Look, lady, I ain’t apologizing to no cookie.”
That just made her angrier.
“Well then I’ll just take it in trade.”
She reached into his chest and plucked his starseed, gratified by the surprised look on his face as he slumped to the ground.
“Well,” she looked around at the rest of the aisle, no one noticing this yet. They had the option to power down somewhere private and walk away. But since they were already powered…
“Do you wanna go to Costco? There’s energy to take. The starseeds are all on display, come on let’s play, what more do I have to say?”

Onyx approached the aspect of hunting the costco with the same glee as she did just about everything else in life, her voice picking up the ending repose of do you want to build a snowman
“ Opal, please, you know I’m all in.
You hardly even have to ask.
They say “have mercy”
And I’m trying to
But they are stupid,
through and through
We only have eachother, Its just you and me.
So what are we gona dooooo?
How about we rule the Costco? “

“We could rule the Costco!”
Opal sang the last line, looking around at all the people that saw the scene, but had no idea what sort of trouble it spelled for them, not yet. They would soon and though some of them would escape, it was nice to think about the trove of starseeds they’d be leaving Costco with, not to mention the energy.
If nothing else Bazzi would have plenty of candies to eat. Hello, delicious friends.
“Ok, bye!”

Chaos ruled the costco that day, as Opal and Onyx plucked starseeds and refilled the coffers of the negaverse with energy.
As they were leaving, Opal scooped up two… no wait three bags of ravioli. That was what they had come here for anyway. A checker who was currently huddled behind a conveyor belt, eyes wide with terror as she watched them saunter out made eye contact with Onyx, who had Opals back as she carried their pilfered treasure.
“ Thats right, you saw what you saw “
And with that they left
