As Ritsuka opened the door, a small bell rung to let the shopkeeper know someone had entered. Peeking her head in carefully, she saw that no one was tending the counter. Shrugging, she walked in and stopped before advancing. The store smelled like dust and something else she'd rather not identify. The air was thick with a strange smoke.
"I guess I can understand why no one is in here..." Walking down one aisle, her eyes scanned the shelves. There were jars filled with strange liquids and body parts from animals and even humans. Ritsuka wrinkled her nose a bit, confused as to what someone would use these for. "If you're a cannibal this might be of some use..." She smiled to herself.
As she approached the back of the store, her eyes fell upon a picture frame with preserved butterflies in them. Picking it up gently, she blew the dust off the glass and ran her fingers along it. There were many varieties, none of which were too much of an importance to her. "Why do you let yourselves end up like this?" She whispered to them.

Upon hearing the bell of the door ring Kazuo stopped what he had been doing. I thought I was the only one in here. He whispered, eyes trying to see who entered. He'd been there since the store opened but even then he didn't know where the shopkeeper was. He just walked in and started to look at the taxidermy. He heard the light taps of feet on the carpet heading towards the back of the shop. Carefuly, he walked over to see, Ritsuka?
"Why do you let yourselves end up like this?"
He saw that in her hands was a frame of butterflies. Raising his eyebrow, he crept over quietly and looked over her shoulder. They can't hear you, you know. He said teasingly.

Mandu opened the door and took in the scent of dust and other assorted smells >_< The little bell rang, announcing his presence. He looked up and down the aisle hoping to catch a glimpse of the cat-girl. "Where could she have gone off too?" he said under his breath. He decided to search for her and walked up and down the aisle, peering into the strange contents of various glass jars. He picked a jar and blew the dust off of it in one breath. The resulting dust cloud gave Mandu that tingling in his nose. He tried to stop himself but he let out a bug sneeze that sent him down to the ground, rattling some merchandise off the shelves but luckily nothing was broken.

"They can't hear you, you know."
Ritsuka felt her ears jolt upwards and her chest cave in. Screaming very sharply, she dropped the glass frame onto the floor causing it to shatter. The butterflies scattered everywhere and Ritsuka stared at them with her hands covering her mouth. The glass was everywhere, in giant shards to minuscule ones. Looking up, she saw Kazuo. "Oh my God, I'm so sorry!" Why was she apologizing? "Uhm, uhm... sh!t."
Her eyes darted around the shop, hoping the owner wouldn't just pop up out of nowhere like Kazuo and yell at her. Near the front of the store, she heard other things fall as well. Well, this place is just falling apart!! In a panic, she grabbed Kazuo's sleeve and quickly found Mandu. "Get up!" She grabbed him by the collar to help him up and shoved Kazuo out of the store onto the streets. Turning around she hurried Mandu with her hands and the door closed behind her with a loud bang.

Kazuo jumped back a bit, startled by the cry Ritsuka let out. He watched as the frame hit the floor, shattering. Oh man, thats not good. Before he could help her pick it up, she had grabbed his sleeve and dragged him to a certain aisle.
"Get up!"
He raised his eyebrow. Is that a... Hufflepuff? Kazuo was interested as to why Ritsuka would have befriended him. She obviously knew him, and helped him up before shoving the both of us out onto the street with an umph.
(Im assuming I just post in the other thread. Ive done this before in other forums. lol

Mandu heard the sound of glass shattering in another part of the shop. In a blur, he say Ritsuka dragging another guy by the sleeve, trying to get him out of the shop. Ritsuka then hurried Mandu out of the store and the door closed with a loud slam behind them.
