"I'll let you know as soon as I figure out what tournaments are happening locally here." Porter then lit up when Malice motioned to the bookstore. "Oooh! Millions-O-Books! They only have that store in the big cities, back where I live." She smiled at Abelith, little tail wagging happily. "We'll definitely have to go by there once we look at the equipment. What kind of books do you like to read?"

"Uh... I read most types of books. I tend to prefer fiction though."Abelith said, looking at the store. "Hmmm..... I'll wait around inside there. You three come by once you're done at the equipment palace."Abelith said, not knowing the name of the palce they were going at all, before heading off to the book store, with a wide grin on her face.

"Uh.... I dunno... kinda backed up on the games at the moment. Guess I'll just grab what catches my eye."Toram said looking at the shelves.

"Mkay then. Be careful, and we'll see you in a little bit." She waved and headed to the equipment store, which was called "Weapon Select." Wandering in through the door, she was greeted by the cashier, a large, beefy wolf morph, who smiled broadly.

"G'day, missy. I see ya got su' new friends witcha. Wha' brings you tree?"

Malice have the wolf a bonebreaking (though not literally) handshake. "G'day, Samuel. Was planning on taking a look around. This one--" she gestured to Porter, "--needs a new blade. And this one--" she gestured to Rezai, "Is excellent SotF material. Couldn't land a hit on her."

Sparks looked through the shelves, shaking his head sadly at the new games section. "Game industry is in a rut at the moment." He began going through the retail rack, picking up a few he hadn't tried. "Dumb third party ripoffs... Oh, they have a copy of Fantasy Finale 24 in here!" He tugged at the game, using all his might to lift it up over his head.

Porter smiled politely up at the huge wolf (she literally had to crane her neck to look at his face) and waved a bit. "Hi! Do you happen to have the S-4W model blade in here? Preferably the twenty inch size?" The S-4W blade was a simple model. Its energy blade was a deep violet color and was wide with a slight curve; the handle itself was light and thin, perfect for small corgi hands.

Rezai roamed the aisles, not interested in conversing with the wolf at the counter. Her eyes were caught when she spotted a type of Energy blade, one not often sold. It was the X-23Z Katanna model. As it's name implied it wa sbased off the japanese sword. Rezai's hand imediately shot to grab it, but the large paw of a Grizzly bear grabbed it first. "Excuse me."It said, non even bothering to look at Rezai. She scowled, before shooting her tongue at it. "OH! Sorry! I thought I saw a fly buzzing around it! Reflexes and what not."She said, acting as though she were just some careless valley girl. "Eugh!"The bear groaned withdrawing its paw. "If you want I can wipe the slime of of it?"Rezai offered grabbing the blade. "Don't bother..."The bear said angrily shoving passed Rezai. She grinned, knowing she just got her hand son her preferred sword.

"Never played it before. Though I think it's sequaled its ass off considering its got 24 games and counting."Toram said, taking the game case and inspecting it. Wrapped up in his tail was a copy of Rotting Space 4, a survival horror sci fi game.

(That tongue though. )

"Course I do. Got everything you could imagine, and anything you can't imagine can be cystine ordered." The store was quite large, about the size as a clothing store. A large amount of it was a practice ring, and the rest was either display racks or storage in the back. Sam went through a door behind the counter, returning with the model in tow. "'Ere it is. Simple and sturdy."

"Oh my god... Dude, we're buying that. It'll be super fun to play with everybody." He hefted Fantasy Finale and his detective game over his head, trotting to the checkout counter.

(Very useful for such situations as pissing people off xD)

Porter's ears perked forward and she wagged her tail happily. "Oh, awesome! Thanks so much!" She took the blade, weighing it in her hand. It was perfect! She grinned at Malice. "Hold on, I'm gonna go look at some of the armor for the hardcore SotF events." And she practically skipped off in glee to browse through the different types of armor and shields that lined the walls.

Rezai soon found herself browsing the armors as well, looking for anything more protective then clothes, but light weight enough to allow her to properly move.

Toram nodded, heading over to the counter as well. He took the games from Spark and sat them on the counter, along with the game he was holding in his tail. HE then lifted Sparks up to hsi hsoulde ragain. "You're paying for your games right?"He asked.

Malice smiled, nodding. "Will do. Don't be cheap either! Sam's armor selection is appropriately priced. You'll get what you pay for." Samuel, upon hearing this, nodded. "I do 'ave ta run a business, and honesty is the best policy."

"Of course. I've got enough for these." He pushed them onto the counter, the deer morph ringing them up. He paid separately.

Rezai glanced around, soon getting a set of armor. It was moddeled to resemble samurai armor, though the resemblance was vague.

Toram paid for his game and he and Sparks soon left the store. "Okay, so wanna go see if we can hunt down Abelith or someone?"Toram asked.

Porter certainly took those words to heart. She ended up coming back to the counter a few minutes later with some light but durable armor to fit her short, not-so-muscular body. She laid it all and her new blade on the counter, looking quite pleased. "This is it, I think." She pulled out her e-card. "Now let's hope I don't have to pay for food this week..." She held out her card to Sam, quite excited about her purchases despite how much she knew it was all going to cost her.

He took the card and looked at it before inserting it into a terminal. He turned the screen to her so she could check her balance before making her purchase. "I hope you enjoy. And all me items have a year warranty, so keep tat in mind," he instructed, dropping the items in a sack. Malice was smiling, nodding her head. "Looks like you're ready then. Rezai, what about you?" She looked over at the aisles, curious.

Rezai soon returned, placing the armor she ofund and her blade on the counter, pulling out her card and handing it to sam.

As the frog bought her items, Porter held her bag of items and spun around on her toes, looking very childish as she showed her boredom from the brief moment of not being mentally engaged in anything. Plus, she had to distract herself from the rest of the awesome stuff lining the walls; she needed some money even after she left the tempting shop! She had books to purchase, after all. So the corgi would continue her spinning until Rezai was ready to head out.

(I'm headed to bed. Night, all!)

Same noticed the saliva that had appeared on the blade, but didn't bother questioning it. He scanned her items as well, passing back their cards and handing Rezai her items. "You ladies 'ave a g'day now. Make shuh to stop by again." Malice had already purchased new shield plating and had her bag over her shoulder. "Now let's check on Abelith." She made her way to the door.

Rezai nodded following. Outside of Millions-O-Books was a small clearly angry crowd. Toram was standing outside, Sparks still on his shoulder, looking at the crowd confused.

Porter's ears perked up as they approached the bookstore. She blinked, hefting the bag up a bit higher. "What's going on over there?" she asked no one in particular. She got closer, trying to see exactly what the crowd was angry about, but she wasn't tall enough to see over the people.

"Oh boy..." She looked over the crowd of people, being quite tall, to see what the commotion was about. Knowing Rezai was surely tall enough to see over everyone, she made a move to pick up Toram, Sparks, and Porter, lifting them to her shoulders.

Sparks clung tightly to Toram's shoulder. "Does anyone see Abby?"

"I think I can see her ears..."Toram responded, with his vision being blocked by the bear from Weapon Select, who was curiously looking into the crowd. Rezai was having a hard time seeing over the crowd as well. She groaned. "Screw this..."She said walking up to the crowd. "Move it!"She demanded shoving passed the people in the crowd. "What are you doing?"She asked when she saw Abelith sitting in the middle of the store with several piles of books stacked around her. "Reading. Why?"Abelith asked as though nothing was wrong.
