Hey all! Yes, I am still alive! Or maybe you all died.... >:3 But, anyway, this is one of my pics that I got from [iconnqme]ishoka[/iconname]. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was the end of the month in Acme Acres, and that meant one thing for Mina: The new Sonic Issues were in! She grabbed her specially saved comic book money, and glided down the stairs and towards the door. She opened it, and saw Scotty walking up the steps to her door. The look on his face told her that he was there for some "fun" with her and her sister.
"Hey, Scotty," she said. "I was just heading out for the Strip Mall. You wanna come with?"
"End of the month comic run huh," Scotty replied; Mina nodded. "Sure. I have a few Mutant X issues to catch up on."
"Cool," Mina smiled, seductively, as she brushed against Scotty. "And when we're done, we can come back for some... fun." She winked at him.
Scotty's eyes widened as he found his eyes running up and down Mina's backside.
"I'm heading out, Mom," she called out as Scotty closed the door behind her.
***
On their way, to the strip mall, something caught Scotty's eye. He stopped and took at it. "Hey look, Mina," Scotty said, pointing. "A new comic book store."
"'A+ Comics'," Mina read out loud. "'Only carry the best comics'. Sounds promising."
"Yeah," Scotty smiled. "Let's check them out."
With that, the two Toons entered the shop. An overhead bell rang, as per usual with such shops. That was a plus for Mina. Everything in it shone and sparkled. So much so, that Mina and Scotty were almost afraid to step foot into it. Shelves and bins alphabetized, and organized by genres made neat, wide aisles to navigate through. Another plus. Various posters littered the walls, and at the glass display desk, which was filled with various collectibles, was the presumed owner, sporting a faded Adolescent Alien Samurai Tortoises T-shirt under a vest, a gelled back, spiky hairdo, and a small mustache and goatee combo, and he was reading an Ultra Man Comic. A BIG plus for Mina. There was even a little jar next to the cash register with variously flavored suckers in it. It had a label that read "one per purchase"
Satisfied, the two furs walked in, and started going through the shelves and bins, searching for their respective Comics. While Scotty was able to find the newest Mutant X issue and one back issue, Mina noticed that she couldn't find the Sonic issues. No big deal, she thought. Maybe she just missed them somewhere. She thumbed through the bins, and went up and down the aisles, thumbing through the issues stacked on them. She did that three times until she finally gave up and walked up to the owner behind the desk.
"Excuse me, sir," Mina asked. "Um, can you help me?"
"Sure," answered the Owner, sounding like a certain Simpsons character. "What seems to be the problem?"
"Your posters and store sign say that you only carry the best comics, and nothing less," Mina explained.
"That's right," the owner proudly nodded. "No mediocre comics in THIS shop!"
"But I don't see any Sonic issues," Mina said, confused.
"Exactly"
It only took a moment for Mina and Scotty to figure up what he meant. But, when they did, they both froze. Scotty's comics fell to the floor as he dashed out of the door. The Owner looked toward the fleeting skunkat, and back at the little ferret bat thing standing before him. But, it looked like the black of her pupils was spreading over her eyes.
***
A few minutes later, the new Comic shop was up in flames and smoke, the owner was running around on fire, and wails of firetruck sirens rang throughout the air. Mina was calmly walking down the street, sucking on a red sucker, with Scotty close behind her, unable to take his eyes off the burning building.
"OHMAIGAWD," the owner screamed. "I was only watching the place for the morning! My brother's gonna kill me!"
Oh, great, Mina thought as she sighed, obviously annoyed at how things turned out. I guess we'll have to try the strip mall after all. Scotty, all the while was continually staring at Mina and the fire, sputtering trying to find his words. Mina soon grew annoyed at her companion's antics and simply glanced back at him.
"What?" she asked.
"I-I," Scotty stammered. "I can't believe you DID that!"
"Oh, hush," Mina said. "We still have some shopping to do."
"We?" Scotty countered. "What's this 'We' stuff!?... and where'd you get that sucker?"
Well, you're still here with me," Mina answered. "If you weren't, you'd have run off by now. And as for this," she her sucker out of her mouth then popped it back in. "I stole it."
"Oh," Scotty whimpered. "Why do I get feeling I've just become your accomplice?"
"Scotty," Mina said. "Sissy's waiting back home. We're gonna go and buy our comics and you're going to take me up to Sissy's room, where you'll have your way with us. Several times. Otherwise, as I've said before, you'd have already run away."
Scotty slumped over and sighed. She was right. And that's exactly what happened. All in all, Scotty had a VERY good day. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The conversation between Mina and the guy behind the desk is based off of an actual conversation I had looking for a good local Comic book store.
