Chapter 2 The Mall
576 Words
I chuckle to myself as we arrive at the mall 'this is going to be a long day.'. Fortunately, a long with letting me take female warriors they were allowed to dress like us to fit in, the humans do not understand our world and I hope that today goes well, little do I know....
We told the driver that we would call when ready to meet us at the entrance later. We head inside, this place is huge 2 stories and seems to go on forever but Dawn knows exactly where she wants to go first and we head in a dress shop with all kinds of gowns on display, and the adventure begins.
We start looking at racks and a salesperson approaches us asking what kind of event, what our favorite colors are, what style we like, and I am clueless other than say I like purple. So the girls with the warriors standing shaking their heads, start picking out different gowns for me to try on. After what seems like 10 hours (but really more like a half hour) I try on this long gown a beautiful shade of royal purple. It has long sheer sleeves and rhinestones through the bodice and a long slit on the side. Everyone cheers that's the one, even the warrior girls get into it, and if I have to admit I look pretty darn good in it. The same store has shoes so we pair it with some black strap heels, not too high as this is not normal me, but they look great with the dress. Kyle and mom are going to be shocked for sure. I pay for mine and the other girls dresses, perk of being who I am. And we head off to the next store.
As we are walking and talking, we see a group of human "boys" they are about our age and start making comments to us. The warriors move to protect but I motion for them to stand down, the humans are harmless and it's just words. We soon get to the next shop and Goddess help me it's a beauty salon, and if course a full-service one.
Apparently, Dawn has already made us an appointment so it starts with hair, facial, then nails. The Owner has a strange smell about her and it takes me a minute to figure out she is a witch, but she seems okay, and we are in the human world. She addresses Dawn, as apparently Dawn comes here often, and off we go to the styling chairs. My stylist is named Adrian, and he quickly starts lifting and twisting my hair, he decides I need a few highlights, why who knows but when he is done, wow my dark hair with the shimmery silver like highlights looks great, and so we go for the rest of treatments and emerge about 2 hours later.
I am starving, so we head to the food court. We get our food, most of us opted for burgers and fries, not exactly healthy but given our workouts normally, we can splurge. We all sit down, the warriors as well, after all this supposed to be a girls day out, and not long after we start eating I hear the words "Mine.". I don't put much thought in and cannot tell what direction it came from, for all I know a human was laying claim on a French fry.
