Disclaimer-I do not own Gundam Wing. If I did there would MANY more female main charcters who were cool! The song in this chapter, inside the ~*~ are from Marilyn Manson's song "This is the new shit" I do not own him or the song either, but I do own the two new books that were introduced in this chappie lol.
Chapter 6-Shopping time!It was 1 week after the party. Arianna was still mad at Wufei, but she had forgiven Raven(after hiding all of her underwear but the bright pink ones, Arianna had deemed them even), and Liz was still thinking of Quatre and how to set up Naomi with Trowa."Guys!" Liz yelled running into the game room in the mansion. There she found Arianna reading a book on ancient Goddesses, Naomi and Raven playing Crash team racing on an old playstation they found, and Versie working on her laptop. "I got a message from the Dr.'s! They want us to go to the peacecraft school! Apparently the other pilots are there! Anyways..... we start tomorrow!" Her happy tone caused the girls to look up from whatever they were doing and listen attentively."WHAT!" Raven yelled. " I don't wanna go to school! There are too many preps and you can't pull many pranks.....It's the worst place ever!""I betcha there will be nothing but weak, perverted boys there. The fools will regret it if any of them make a move on me." Arianna stated coldly while looking up from her book. Naomi snorted."Admit it. You'd like it." She said looking at Arianna with a grin."Hardly." Arianna scowled."Enough guys. We have to go get get our uniforms at the mall...Right now." Liz said stepping in between the 2 girls."No way in hell will you get me in a mall." Arianna stated while crossing her arms in defiance.~*~30 minutes later~*~ "I cannot believe you brought me here." Arianna mumbled. They were currently standing outside of the closests mall they could find in the Sanq Kingdom. "Well believe it. We're here so quit you're complaining." Versie retorted coldly. Arianna scowled but was silent anyway. No one messed with Versie, their leader. Especially when Versie was in a place she didn't like or was forced to do something she hated. Last time that happened the girls were locked out of the house in minus 20 weather, while Versie sat at the window and drank hot chocolate with a smirk."Well now that that is over, how about we go into the mall. I want to get this uniform thing over so we can do some real shopping." Naomi said with a grin."No can do. We don't have any money remember." Raven said with a smile of relief, which quickly fell when Naomi laughed."The doctors sent us money. Well more like credit cards, but that doesn't matter." Naomi explained."CURSE YOU!!" Raven yelled, shaking her fist towards the sky, and startling passerbyers."Come on." Liz sighed exasperated while grabbing the 2 teens(Arianna&Raven) by their ears and dragging them into the mall ignoring their yelps of protest. Versie snorted and followed them in with Naomi following her.~*~Uniform store~*~"Nope. No way." Raven was currently turning in quick circles on the fitting stool, trying to avoid the now very irratated employee who was trying to get her uniform size."Miss please quit moving. I have to get your size." The lady moaned as she tried to get Raven's size."No!" Raven was now getting very frantic and the lady was looking frustrated."Her size is 36' 26' 36'." Versie stated coldly, now fed up with Ravens antics."How did you know?" Raven asked bewildered as the now flustered lady hurried away to make the uniform."Easy." Versie stated while crossing her arms. "However, I am not going to tell you.""Oh. Ok." Raven was looking very confused now but Versie was saved from answering another question because the lady came back."Your uniforms will be ready for pick up in 1 hour , ladies." The woman said before throwing Raven a 'look' and leaving the room once again."So what do we do till then? Eat?" Raven asked cheerfully, now that the cursed uniform fiting was over."Nope. We shop." Naomi said with a grin while tossing each girl a credit card. "Unlimited. Buy anything you think you might want.""Now this is my kind of shopping." Raven said with a grin."Good. Go. Be back here in an hour." Versie stated with a smirk before leaving the uniform store. The others nodded and followed Versie out, Raven pushing over a maniquin to get back at the 'Crazy Lady' as she had dubbed her.~*~Weapon Shop~*~Versie, being Versie, had entered a weapon shop. She was looking at the bullet selection as she noticed the other day she was low, when she noticed trouble was brewing by the cash register."Please sirs. Relax." The employe begged as the 2 OZ soldiers in uniform glared down upon him."You stole my girlfriend, you punk." The one guy snarled, grabbing the employee by the collar and hauling him over the counter so they were eye to eye. "I think you know what I have to do to you now, don't you?""Yeah, you punk. You're in for it now." The other guy taunted with a twisted smile."Is there a problem, gentlemen?" Versie coldy asked as she stepped into view. She had grown bored with the males foolish antics. Besides, if the employee was knocked out of commission she wouldn't be able to buy her bullets."Not at all little lady. Just taking care of business." The first guy stated cooly while holding onto the scared-shitless employe."Yeah. Yeah. But how about me and my friend take you out later for some real fun?" The other guy asked licking his lips. Versie scowled at him and clenched her fists before walking up to the guys."So babe how abo-" The guy was cut off as Versie's fist connected with his jaw at the same time her knee connected with his lower ribcage. She let go of the stunned soldier and turned to the other."Hey!" He yelled as he let go of the employee and turned to face the smirking Versie. "What the hell was that for?""For being an asshole." Versie answered coldly before roundhouse kicking the guy in the chest. The guy staggared backwards towards the shelves, clutching his chest. "Fool." Versie smirked before grabbing the guy and throwing him out the door, literally. She returned, grab his friend, and tossed him out too."Thank you so very much." The employe cried to her while gasping for breath. "I don't know what I would have done if you weren't here.""Whatever. Listen to you have any good handguns here?" Versie asked monotoniously."Any good guns?" The employee repeated incrediously. "OF COURSE!! We have some of the best guns in the world! And I'll give you one for free as a thank you gift!" The guy grinned before disappearing into the backroom.Moments later he returned with a hand gun and a sniper gun. "Here are 2 of our best guns. Strongest and best range and accuracy. Best guns on the market. All I'll need is some liscence and identification." They guy stated proudly. Versie nodded before handing him a forged identification. He nodded after inspecting it, running her name through his databases, and then handed her her guns."I thank you very much." Versie said quietly with a nod of approval. She turned around and was half way out of the store when the guy called her back.
"Hey!"
"Yes?" She asked while turning around.
"You probably will deny it but I have a feeling you are against OZ. So I have one thing to say to you," Versie stared at him coldly,"take those bastards down if you can." He winked at her and she gave him a half nod before leaving the store.~*~Raven~*~Raven stood in one of the many isles in the hardware store, looking at the different tools that lined the shelves. She was trying to find the best tools for her 'experiments'."Perhaps this screwdriver? Or maybe this hammer? Or what about this wrench? So many choices so little time!! WHAT TO DO?!" She yelled the last part in exasperation; startling the people around her. They glanced at her strangely before edging away."Perhaps you should get them all miss." The man beside her said with a smile. He had short curly brown hair and brown eyes."Good idea!" Raven said with a grin while grabbing all the tools she looked at and running for the cash register."Ummmmm miss are you sure you want all of these tools? Wouldn't you rather look at our cleaning supplies?" The cashier asked uncertainly. Raven glared at him and clenched her fist."Run the tools through the scanner. Total up my price, and allow me to pay for my stuff and walk out of here all nice and jolly. If you don't I may be forced to act." She growled in a low voice to the cashier. The cashier just looked at her and laughed."Perhaps you should do as the lady says, or else the consequences may not be in your favor." The man who helped Raven choose the tools stated, walking up."Whatever man. What's she going to do? Beat me with a broom? Whack me with a frying pan." The cashier said with a laugh. When Raven heard this she grabbed the cashier by his collar and dragging him over the counter, so that he was eye to eye with her."Listen here you shit faced freak. Run my stuff through the scanner now and I'll leave in peace. If you don't I'm afraid to say you won't be getting any dates any time soon." Raven hissed to him before dropping him back over the counter. " Got it? Good."The cashier, now visibly shaken, quickly ran the stuff through the scanner. "Your total is $52.59...""Thank you." Raven said coldly while handing the man her card. He charged the money to the card and she grabbed her stuff and left."Hey wait! I didn't get your name!" The brown haired helper followed Raven out the door."Its Raven." She stated, turning around."Well Raven it's very nice to meet you. My name is Otto." The man, Otto, said with a smile."It's very nice to meet you Otto. I hope we get a chance to meet each other again." Raven said, smiling also, and then she turned around and disappeared into the crowd."Strange girl. But nice too." Otto muttered before diappearing also.~*~Book Store~*~Naomi was currently residing in the first book store she could find."Silence. Something I have not heard in a while." She mumbled to herself as she searched through all of the old books in the back. "Now to find something good." Naomi was into mysteries and legends at this time. Suddenly a black book caught her attention. It had faded gold writing that was no longer readable. Curiousity took her over and she pulled it off of the shelf and opened it up. It had a whole bunch of different legends in it. Naomi decided to buy it, so she closed it and headed to the cash register."Ahhh. This book has been here for a long while. Almost as long as I have been on this earth." The aged cashier said in a cracked voice. Naomi looked at him and smiled."I am into these types of books." Naomi stated with a smile."As am I young one." He let out a small laugh. Naomi smiled and decided she liked this man. H reminded her of her adopted father."How much do I owe you?" She asked taking out her card."Not a cent. It's good to see young people who are going in the right place." The man said with a smile, the skin around his eyes wrinkling. Naomi smiled at him fondly."I thank you very much. But are you sure it is not a problem?""It's no problem. I'm glad that I had this conversation with you. It's been a while since I have felt this good. You have reminded me why I opened up this shop in the first place. It is I who should be thanking you." The old man said fondly while staring out at nothing."Well I'm glad I came here then. You too have reminded me of someone I lost long ago." Naomi said sincerely. The old man looked at her with twinkling eyes that shimmered with tears."That is the nicest thing anyone has said to me in years." He said softly. Naomi reached acrossed the counter and grasped the old man's hand in hers. She had automatically felt a bond with this man. It was weird."If it is alright, May I come back and visit you?" She asked."Of course, I would like that a lot. By the way my name is Wilfred Domino, but you can call me Will.""Alright Will, I'll come back. And I'll bring a couple of my friends with me, if you don't mind?""No, not at all. The more the merrier." "Good. I will visit soon. I promise. But for a very short time it is farewell, I have a few more errands." She smiled at him one last time before leaving the store.~*~Bath and Body Shop~*~Liz, being the girl that she was, was looking through the bath and body shop for some nice soaps for the bathrooms. She had found that the bathrooms didn't come eqipped with anything that she found 'essential'."Ok let's see. Versie likes soaps that smell like forests, Raven likes strong soaps and for good reason I swear smoke seems to love that girl, Naomi likes dove, and Arianna likes her spicy soaps. So I'm going to need Spring Meadow, Irish Springs, Dove, Jasmine, and Spicy Herbal soap. Now for Shampoo..." Liz,satisfied with her soap choices, she threw the bars into her cart and headed off to the shampoo isle in the giant store.'Man this place is huge! I person could get lost in here. Thank god for the signs.' She thought with a giggle. 'Raven wouldn't last 5 minutes in here. We'd find her curled up in the back corner, shaking, 2 hours later. 'Once in the isle Liz looked at the long isle and sweatdropped. "Oh Boy." She mumbled. She then began reading the labels on the bottles to find the best ones.~*~5 mins. later~*~"ok. I've got shampoo and soap. So all I need is razors, shaving cream, toothpaste, personalized towels, tooth brushes and body cream. Great." Liz sighed and headed towards the razor isle to get the first to things on her mental list. Once there she decided on green razors and wild flower shaving cream, knowing everyone would like them. She then headed to the toothpaste and toothbrush isle. There she picked out crest toothpaste and 5 toothbrushes; a Navy blue one, a black one, a green one, a gold one and a silverish-white one. She then picked up towels towels that matched the toothbrushes in colour and body cream that had the same smell as the soap she bought."Now I think I have everything." Liz said relieved."What about the kitchen sink?" A man asked from beside her."Already included in the house." Liz said with a laugh. She looked over at he person next to her and gasped. "Quatre! What are you doing here?" She squealed and gave the blonde next to her a hug. Quatre blushed and grinnned."Probably the same reason you are here, Liz." Quatre said glancing at Liz's cart. Liz laughed."So hows it going?" She asked."Pretty good I guess. So when are you starting school here?" "Tomorrow. We just came here to get our uniforms and to do some shopping." Liz stated while rolling her eyes. "Two of my friends don't like malls so it was a fight just to get them here." Quatre chuckled."Sounds like a friend of mine. He hates malls for one sole reason. Relena would probably be there. It's quite funny when you think about it." Quatre smiled at the thought."Ahhh yes. I'm guessing this friend of yours was the one at the dance. Heero Yuy I believe his name was. Poor guy. I'd kill myself if she chased me around. That would just be.... wrong." Liz said with a giggle. Quatre laughed."I agree.""Oh I gotta go. I only have 15 minutes before I have to be back at the uniform shop or Versie will have my head. Sorry. It's nice seeing you again. Hopefully I'll see you soon." Liz said sincerely while looking at her watch."Thats alright. Maybe we'll see each other later?""Count on it." Liz said wiith a wink before heading out to the check out counter. Quatre smiled softly before continuing on with his shopping.~*~Arianna~*~'Hmmm. What to do in this ecursed place? Perhaps there is an ancient artifact store. Or perhaps a Wiccan store? Or maybe a book store? So many choices.' Arianna wandered around the mall looking for something that would grab her attention. So far all she had met up with were a couple of perverts but she took 'care' of them. Sighing Arianna entered a Wiccan shop called 'The Circle'. She looked around and bought some candles and incence. The store had lots of stuff but Arianna already collected and owned most of it. Next she looked at all the books that were for sale."Lets see. 'Wiccan Spells', 'A guide to Wicca', 'Candle Meanings', 'Growing your own indoor garden', 'Modern Wicca', 'Rituals, Spells and Gestures'." She allowed her finger to glide along the shelf. Suddenly a book semed to catch her eye. "Hmmm 'Ancient Prophecies and Legends of the Elements'. Sounds interesting." She mumbled to herself while pulling out the black book with silver lettering. The book had no author. She leafed through the pages noting that the drawings seemed very realistic. "Why not. It seems pretty good."Taking her items to the cashier, she noticed that she was pretty much the only person in there."That'll be $43.95 please." The employee stated dully. He glanced over her in very preverted way."Yeah whatever." Arianna stated coldly while handing the money over and leaving the shop with her bags. "Bastard." She mumbled under her breath. Checking her watch, she realized she had another 40 minutes to burn. "Damn." She swore. Sighing she began wandering around to see if she could find anything intersting. Eventually she came upon a music store that sold some pretty good music. Shrugging she entered and was greated by a blast from the air conditioner and stereo."Babble babble, bitch bitch
Rebel rebel, party party
Sex sex sex and don't forget the violence!"Smiling at the choice of music, she began to search through the many CD's.~*~30 mins later~*~Arianna sighed happily. She had gotten a Marilyn Manson Cd and AFI"s last one made. Oh yes it was a good store. She made a mental note to come back again. She walked out of the store and towards the uniform store, which was way acrossed the mall. She passed a bunch of clothes store and perverted males who received a shock when they tried to hit on her and found themselves in the large wishing fountain. When she finally reached the uniform store she breathed a sigh of relief. She hadn't lost her temper and no broken bones were caused, though if it had been Versie in those situations, it would have been a blood bath. She was the last one to arrive. When she walked into the store she knew something was wrong. Versie and Raven arguing with the seamstress and owner of the store."Whats wrong?" She asked walking up and standing next to Liz and Naomi."Versie and Raven don't like it that they made female uniforms for them and are insisting that they have the male." Liz answered looking at Arianna through the corner of her eye."Yeah. They don't like that the female uniform has a skirt." Naomi said with a grin. She knew the reaction she would get from Arianna."Oh hell no!" Arianna stated angrily while stalking over to the seamstress and owner to join in on the heated argument."Ladies! It is in the rule book!" The owner stated frustratingly."So! I think we should have a choice whether or not we want to wear a skirt!" Raven retorted angrily."Its in the rule book! Boys wear the male uniform while females wear the female uniform!" The seamstress growled before throwing up her hands in the air and stalking away towards the new costumers that just entered the store."Like it or not, it is the rules." The owner stated."I don't think it should matter what gender we are. If we want to wear pants instead of a skirt we should be allowed to. No matter what. Its racist to consider anything else." Versie growled coldly while crossing her arms over her chest."I agree. I want to speak to this headmistress personally about this matter." Arianna said while walking up and standing next to Versie and Raven."Princess Relena is too busy to answer any of your questions ladies. Now its either you wear these uniforms or you don't go to the school. Your choice." The owner said angrily before walking away."Well that didn't go over too good now did it." Naomi said with a small smilen while her and Liz made there way to the fuming anti-dress females."What'll it be girls. Wear the uniforms or fail the mission?" Liz questioned, already knowing the answer."Hn." Versie grunted coldly while grabbing the bag her uniform was in and stalking out of the store, but not before throwing a dirty look behind her. The other girls just sighed before grabbing their bags and leaving too, Arianna and Raven holding their bags away from them as though they held something very dirty or smelly.
"Can I blow up this mall if we ever discover OZ is hiding here?" Raven asked innocently, making the others sigh and shake their heads.

Chapter 6-Shopping time!It was 1 week after the party. Arianna was still mad at Wufei, but she had forgiven Raven(after hiding all of her underwear but the bright pink ones, Arianna had deemed them even), and Liz was still thinking of Quatre and how to set up Naomi with Trowa."Guys!" Liz yelled running into the game room in the mansion. There she found Arianna reading a book on ancient Goddesses, Naomi and Raven playing Crash team racing on an old playstation they found, and Versie working on her laptop. "I got a message from the Dr.'s! They want us to go to the peacecraft school! Apparently the other pilots are there! Anyways..... we start tomorrow!" Her happy tone caused the girls to look up from whatever they were doing and listen attentively."WHAT!" Raven yelled. " I don't wanna go to school! There are too many preps and you can't pull many pranks.....It's the worst place ever!""I betcha there will be nothing but weak, perverted boys there. The fools will regret it if any of them make a move on me." Arianna stated coldly while looking up from her book. Naomi snorted."Admit it. You'd like it." She said looking at Arianna with a grin."Hardly." Arianna scowled."Enough guys. We have to go get get our uniforms at the mall...Right now." Liz said stepping in between the 2 girls."No way in hell will you get me in a mall." Arianna stated while crossing her arms in defiance.~*~30 minutes later~*~ "I cannot believe you brought me here." Arianna mumbled. They were currently standing outside of the closests mall they could find in the Sanq Kingdom. "Well believe it. We're here so quit you're complaining." Versie retorted coldly. Arianna scowled but was silent anyway. No one messed with Versie, their leader. Especially when Versie was in a place she didn't like or was forced to do something she hated. Last time that happened the girls were locked out of the house in minus 20 weather, while Versie sat at the window and drank hot chocolate with a smirk."Well now that that is over, how about we go into the mall. I want to get this uniform thing over so we can do some real shopping." Naomi said with a grin."No can do. We don't have any money remember." Raven said with a smile of relief, which quickly fell when Naomi laughed."The doctors sent us money. Well more like credit cards, but that doesn't matter." Naomi explained."CURSE YOU!!" Raven yelled, shaking her fist towards the sky, and startling passerbyers."Come on." Liz sighed exasperated while grabbing the 2 teens(Arianna&Raven) by their ears and dragging them into the mall ignoring their yelps of protest. Versie snorted and followed them in with Naomi following her.~*~Uniform store~*~"Nope. No way." Raven was currently turning in quick circles on the fitting stool, trying to avoid the now very irratated employee who was trying to get her uniform size."Miss please quit moving. I have to get your size." The lady moaned as she tried to get Raven's size."No!" Raven was now getting very frantic and the lady was looking frustrated."Her size is 36' 26' 36'." Versie stated coldly, now fed up with Ravens antics."How did you know?" Raven asked bewildered as the now flustered lady hurried away to make the uniform."Easy." Versie stated while crossing her arms. "However, I am not going to tell you.""Oh. Ok." Raven was looking very confused now but Versie was saved from answering another question because the lady came back."Your uniforms will be ready for pick up in 1 hour , ladies." The woman said before throwing Raven a 'look' and leaving the room once again."So what do we do till then? Eat?" Raven asked cheerfully, now that the cursed uniform fiting was over."Nope. We shop." Naomi said with a grin while tossing each girl a credit card. "Unlimited. Buy anything you think you might want.""Now this is my kind of shopping." Raven said with a grin."Good. Go. Be back here in an hour." Versie stated with a smirk before leaving the uniform store. The others nodded and followed Versie out, Raven pushing over a maniquin to get back at the 'Crazy Lady' as she had dubbed her.~*~Weapon Shop~*~Versie, being Versie, had entered a weapon shop. She was looking at the bullet selection as she noticed the other day she was low, when she noticed trouble was brewing by the cash register."Please sirs. Relax." The employe begged as the 2 OZ soldiers in uniform glared down upon him."You stole my girlfriend, you punk." The one guy snarled, grabbing the employee by the collar and hauling him over the counter so they were eye to eye. "I think you know what I have to do to you now, don't you?""Yeah, you punk. You're in for it now." The other guy taunted with a twisted smile."Is there a problem, gentlemen?" Versie coldy asked as she stepped into view. She had grown bored with the males foolish antics. Besides, if the employee was knocked out of commission she wouldn't be able to buy her bullets."Not at all little lady. Just taking care of business." The first guy stated cooly while holding onto the scared-shitless employe."Yeah. Yeah. But how about me and my friend take you out later for some real fun?" The other guy asked licking his lips. Versie scowled at him and clenched her fists before walking up to the guys."So babe how abo-" The guy was cut off as Versie's fist connected with his jaw at the same time her knee connected with his lower ribcage. She let go of the stunned soldier and turned to the other."Hey!" He yelled as he let go of the employee and turned to face the smirking Versie. "What the hell was that for?""For being an asshole." Versie answered coldly before roundhouse kicking the guy in the chest. The guy staggared backwards towards the shelves, clutching his chest. "Fool." Versie smirked before grabbing the guy and throwing him out the door, literally. She returned, grab his friend, and tossed him out too."Thank you so very much." The employe cried to her while gasping for breath. "I don't know what I would have done if you weren't here.""Whatever. Listen to you have any good handguns here?" Versie asked monotoniously."Any good guns?" The employee repeated incrediously. "OF COURSE!! We have some of the best guns in the world! And I'll give you one for free as a thank you gift!" The guy grinned before disappearing into the backroom.Moments later he returned with a hand gun and a sniper gun. "Here are 2 of our best guns. Strongest and best range and accuracy. Best guns on the market. All I'll need is some liscence and identification." They guy stated proudly. Versie nodded before handing him a forged identification. He nodded after inspecting it, running her name through his databases, and then handed her her guns."I thank you very much." Versie said quietly with a nod of approval. She turned around and was half way out of the store when the guy called her back.
"Hey!"
"Yes?" She asked while turning around.
"You probably will deny it but I have a feeling you are against OZ. So I have one thing to say to you," Versie stared at him coldly,"take those bastards down if you can." He winked at her and she gave him a half nod before leaving the store.~*~Raven~*~Raven stood in one of the many isles in the hardware store, looking at the different tools that lined the shelves. She was trying to find the best tools for her 'experiments'."Perhaps this screwdriver? Or maybe this hammer? Or what about this wrench? So many choices so little time!! WHAT TO DO?!" She yelled the last part in exasperation; startling the people around her. They glanced at her strangely before edging away."Perhaps you should get them all miss." The man beside her said with a smile. He had short curly brown hair and brown eyes."Good idea!" Raven said with a grin while grabbing all the tools she looked at and running for the cash register."Ummmmm miss are you sure you want all of these tools? Wouldn't you rather look at our cleaning supplies?" The cashier asked uncertainly. Raven glared at him and clenched her fist."Run the tools through the scanner. Total up my price, and allow me to pay for my stuff and walk out of here all nice and jolly. If you don't I may be forced to act." She growled in a low voice to the cashier. The cashier just looked at her and laughed."Perhaps you should do as the lady says, or else the consequences may not be in your favor." The man who helped Raven choose the tools stated, walking up."Whatever man. What's she going to do? Beat me with a broom? Whack me with a frying pan." The cashier said with a laugh. When Raven heard this she grabbed the cashier by his collar and dragging him over the counter, so that he was eye to eye with her."Listen here you shit faced freak. Run my stuff through the scanner now and I'll leave in peace. If you don't I'm afraid to say you won't be getting any dates any time soon." Raven hissed to him before dropping him back over the counter. " Got it? Good."The cashier, now visibly shaken, quickly ran the stuff through the scanner. "Your total is $52.59...""Thank you." Raven said coldly while handing the man her card. He charged the money to the card and she grabbed her stuff and left."Hey wait! I didn't get your name!" The brown haired helper followed Raven out the door."Its Raven." She stated, turning around."Well Raven it's very nice to meet you. My name is Otto." The man, Otto, said with a smile."It's very nice to meet you Otto. I hope we get a chance to meet each other again." Raven said, smiling also, and then she turned around and disappeared into the crowd."Strange girl. But nice too." Otto muttered before diappearing also.~*~Book Store~*~Naomi was currently residing in the first book store she could find."Silence. Something I have not heard in a while." She mumbled to herself as she searched through all of the old books in the back. "Now to find something good." Naomi was into mysteries and legends at this time. Suddenly a black book caught her attention. It had faded gold writing that was no longer readable. Curiousity took her over and she pulled it off of the shelf and opened it up. It had a whole bunch of different legends in it. Naomi decided to buy it, so she closed it and headed to the cash register."Ahhh. This book has been here for a long while. Almost as long as I have been on this earth." The aged cashier said in a cracked voice. Naomi looked at him and smiled."I am into these types of books." Naomi stated with a smile."As am I young one." He let out a small laugh. Naomi smiled and decided she liked this man. H reminded her of her adopted father."How much do I owe you?" She asked taking out her card."Not a cent. It's good to see young people who are going in the right place." The man said with a smile, the skin around his eyes wrinkling. Naomi smiled at him fondly."I thank you very much. But are you sure it is not a problem?""It's no problem. I'm glad that I had this conversation with you. It's been a while since I have felt this good. You have reminded me why I opened up this shop in the first place. It is I who should be thanking you." The old man said fondly while staring out at nothing."Well I'm glad I came here then. You too have reminded me of someone I lost long ago." Naomi said sincerely. The old man looked at her with twinkling eyes that shimmered with tears."That is the nicest thing anyone has said to me in years." He said softly. Naomi reached acrossed the counter and grasped the old man's hand in hers. She had automatically felt a bond with this man. It was weird."If it is alright, May I come back and visit you?" She asked."Of course, I would like that a lot. By the way my name is Wilfred Domino, but you can call me Will.""Alright Will, I'll come back. And I'll bring a couple of my friends with me, if you don't mind?""No, not at all. The more the merrier." "Good. I will visit soon. I promise. But for a very short time it is farewell, I have a few more errands." She smiled at him one last time before leaving the store.~*~Bath and Body Shop~*~Liz, being the girl that she was, was looking through the bath and body shop for some nice soaps for the bathrooms. She had found that the bathrooms didn't come eqipped with anything that she found 'essential'."Ok let's see. Versie likes soaps that smell like forests, Raven likes strong soaps and for good reason I swear smoke seems to love that girl, Naomi likes dove, and Arianna likes her spicy soaps. So I'm going to need Spring Meadow, Irish Springs, Dove, Jasmine, and Spicy Herbal soap. Now for Shampoo..." Liz,satisfied with her soap choices, she threw the bars into her cart and headed off to the shampoo isle in the giant store.'Man this place is huge! I person could get lost in here. Thank god for the signs.' She thought with a giggle. 'Raven wouldn't last 5 minutes in here. We'd find her curled up in the back corner, shaking, 2 hours later. 'Once in the isle Liz looked at the long isle and sweatdropped. "Oh Boy." She mumbled. She then began reading the labels on the bottles to find the best ones.~*~5 mins. later~*~"ok. I've got shampoo and soap. So all I need is razors, shaving cream, toothpaste, personalized towels, tooth brushes and body cream. Great." Liz sighed and headed towards the razor isle to get the first to things on her mental list. Once there she decided on green razors and wild flower shaving cream, knowing everyone would like them. She then headed to the toothpaste and toothbrush isle. There she picked out crest toothpaste and 5 toothbrushes; a Navy blue one, a black one, a green one, a gold one and a silverish-white one. She then picked up towels towels that matched the toothbrushes in colour and body cream that had the same smell as the soap she bought."Now I think I have everything." Liz said relieved."What about the kitchen sink?" A man asked from beside her."Already included in the house." Liz said with a laugh. She looked over at he person next to her and gasped. "Quatre! What are you doing here?" She squealed and gave the blonde next to her a hug. Quatre blushed and grinnned."Probably the same reason you are here, Liz." Quatre said glancing at Liz's cart. Liz laughed."So hows it going?" She asked."Pretty good I guess. So when are you starting school here?" "Tomorrow. We just came here to get our uniforms and to do some shopping." Liz stated while rolling her eyes. "Two of my friends don't like malls so it was a fight just to get them here." Quatre chuckled."Sounds like a friend of mine. He hates malls for one sole reason. Relena would probably be there. It's quite funny when you think about it." Quatre smiled at the thought."Ahhh yes. I'm guessing this friend of yours was the one at the dance. Heero Yuy I believe his name was. Poor guy. I'd kill myself if she chased me around. That would just be.... wrong." Liz said with a giggle. Quatre laughed."I agree.""Oh I gotta go. I only have 15 minutes before I have to be back at the uniform shop or Versie will have my head. Sorry. It's nice seeing you again. Hopefully I'll see you soon." Liz said sincerely while looking at her watch."Thats alright. Maybe we'll see each other later?""Count on it." Liz said wiith a wink before heading out to the check out counter. Quatre smiled softly before continuing on with his shopping.~*~Arianna~*~'Hmmm. What to do in this ecursed place? Perhaps there is an ancient artifact store. Or perhaps a Wiccan store? Or maybe a book store? So many choices.' Arianna wandered around the mall looking for something that would grab her attention. So far all she had met up with were a couple of perverts but she took 'care' of them. Sighing Arianna entered a Wiccan shop called 'The Circle'. She looked around and bought some candles and incence. The store had lots of stuff but Arianna already collected and owned most of it. Next she looked at all the books that were for sale."Lets see. 'Wiccan Spells', 'A guide to Wicca', 'Candle Meanings', 'Growing your own indoor garden', 'Modern Wicca', 'Rituals, Spells and Gestures'." She allowed her finger to glide along the shelf. Suddenly a book semed to catch her eye. "Hmmm 'Ancient Prophecies and Legends of the Elements'. Sounds interesting." She mumbled to herself while pulling out the black book with silver lettering. The book had no author. She leafed through the pages noting that the drawings seemed very realistic. "Why not. It seems pretty good."Taking her items to the cashier, she noticed that she was pretty much the only person in there."That'll be $43.95 please." The employee stated dully. He glanced over her in very preverted way."Yeah whatever." Arianna stated coldly while handing the money over and leaving the shop with her bags. "Bastard." She mumbled under her breath. Checking her watch, she realized she had another 40 minutes to burn. "Damn." She swore. Sighing she began wandering around to see if she could find anything intersting. Eventually she came upon a music store that sold some pretty good music. Shrugging she entered and was greated by a blast from the air conditioner and stereo."Babble babble, bitch bitch
Rebel rebel, party party
Sex sex sex and don't forget the violence!"Smiling at the choice of music, she began to search through the many CD's.~*~30 mins later~*~Arianna sighed happily. She had gotten a Marilyn Manson Cd and AFI"s last one made. Oh yes it was a good store. She made a mental note to come back again. She walked out of the store and towards the uniform store, which was way acrossed the mall. She passed a bunch of clothes store and perverted males who received a shock when they tried to hit on her and found themselves in the large wishing fountain. When she finally reached the uniform store she breathed a sigh of relief. She hadn't lost her temper and no broken bones were caused, though if it had been Versie in those situations, it would have been a blood bath. She was the last one to arrive. When she walked into the store she knew something was wrong. Versie and Raven arguing with the seamstress and owner of the store."Whats wrong?" She asked walking up and standing next to Liz and Naomi."Versie and Raven don't like it that they made female uniforms for them and are insisting that they have the male." Liz answered looking at Arianna through the corner of her eye."Yeah. They don't like that the female uniform has a skirt." Naomi said with a grin. She knew the reaction she would get from Arianna."Oh hell no!" Arianna stated angrily while stalking over to the seamstress and owner to join in on the heated argument."Ladies! It is in the rule book!" The owner stated frustratingly."So! I think we should have a choice whether or not we want to wear a skirt!" Raven retorted angrily."Its in the rule book! Boys wear the male uniform while females wear the female uniform!" The seamstress growled before throwing up her hands in the air and stalking away towards the new costumers that just entered the store."Like it or not, it is the rules." The owner stated."I don't think it should matter what gender we are. If we want to wear pants instead of a skirt we should be allowed to. No matter what. Its racist to consider anything else." Versie growled coldly while crossing her arms over her chest."I agree. I want to speak to this headmistress personally about this matter." Arianna said while walking up and standing next to Versie and Raven."Princess Relena is too busy to answer any of your questions ladies. Now its either you wear these uniforms or you don't go to the school. Your choice." The owner said angrily before walking away."Well that didn't go over too good now did it." Naomi said with a small smilen while her and Liz made there way to the fuming anti-dress females."What'll it be girls. Wear the uniforms or fail the mission?" Liz questioned, already knowing the answer."Hn." Versie grunted coldly while grabbing the bag her uniform was in and stalking out of the store, but not before throwing a dirty look behind her. The other girls just sighed before grabbing their bags and leaving too, Arianna and Raven holding their bags away from them as though they held something very dirty or smelly.
"Can I blow up this mall if we ever discover OZ is hiding here?" Raven asked innocently, making the others sigh and shake their heads.
