Popping into the store

I stroll through the familiar glass door and into the grocery store. I give the store a quick look over and scoff. "Empty as usual..." I walk over to the baking supplies aisle as I think on how lucky for this place that there aren't any mortgage payments. I pull a few items from the shelves, mentally going through my checklist of necessary things. While there are grocery stores in other dimensions, I'm not that curious to try alien ingredients in my pastries. There's another reason for my visit besides shopping though. I'm in the mood to visit a certain someone who happens to live beneath this place. First things first though. I need to restock. I hum happily as I pull a shopping cart from my bag and dump the items I choose into it.

-= A little robot floats around the corner look at Sadira=-

LilBot: Do you need any help with anything?

My ears twitch and I turn around slowly to look at the little robot. I stare blankly at it before poking at it with a whisk. "Um...No...No, I'm good. Thank you though?" I walk around the robot, keeping my distance and continuing to poke it.

LilBot: I do not believe you.... -=Lilbot starts to poke back at Sadira=- I am going to keep an eye on you is that understood...? -=Lilbot floats into the air and stares down at Sadira's it's face display now red with a Lock on it.=-

"..." I stare up at the thing, sweatdropping. "Um...Ok...Whatever floats your boat thing." In the back of my mind, I hear a voice singing along to Somebody's Watching Me. I haphazardly toss a few more items into my cart before making my way to the checkout, occasionally throwing looks over my shoulder at the robot.

-=The face display twinkles every time Sadira looks back at the Robot. An automatic check-out dings and lights up as is it approached=-

As I approach the checkout, Teal and Timor pop out of my bag and hop/float over to the machine. Tealy unloads the items onto the machine while Timor bags them. "Aa. Thanks guys." Teal gives me a thumbs up before going back to work. With my shopping being taken care of, I turn to look at the robot. "Oi, Robot! Is your creator...boss...whatever you call him around?"

LilBot: Creator?! You have business with the Creator?! -=The robot flies over to Sadira=- Hmmmm I wish I would have know that either. One second... -=The Robot face display shows a map like area and then a blip on the scree.=- The Creator is currently stationed in his room.

I resist the urge to facepalm as I examine the map. "Aa. Thanks. 'Preciate it." I turn around to Teal and Timor who are almost done bagging things. "I'll leave the rest of this to you. If you want, you can buy yourself and the others somethin too." I toss my credit card to Teal and my bag to Timor before heading towards the underground entrance. Behind me, Teal and Timor's eyes light up and they grin looking at the card. As I step onto the panel, I notice a few of the shelves tumble to the ground and shake my head as the little pokemon wreak havoc.
