"Hello friends. I'm a bit short-handed with employees today due to many calling in sick. So I need a couple of you to come in and work. Thank you in advance."

Shinpachi and Kagura let out collective groans. Lately, those two and Gin-san have gotten no work. Things have gotten so bad that Gin-san had to do part-time work with the Shinsegumi. Those two knew that they had to take these little jobs, no matter how bad it was.

Shinpachi and Kagura arrived at the Grocery Store less than thrilled. Kagura called for the store's manager; he came and introduced himself.

"So old man, what exactly do we have to do..."

"KAGURA-CHAN! BE POLITE!!"

"Kagura-dono, Shinpachi-dono, there's a few things I want you two to take care of. First, people keep jumbling the fresh produce out of place. You will need to put the produce back in their respective spots."

"But that's so --,"Kagura was stopped mid-sentence by a punch to the shoulder from Shinpachi.

"Secondly," said the manager, "You'll have to walk around the store and ask people if they need help finding anything."

"Wow," Shinpachi fumed, " that's so bor --," Kagura gave him a punch that sent him flying towards the back of the store. Several bottles of soda were heard sprayed and spilled.

"Lastly, clean up is a must, so you have to mop up the floors at closing. Do you guys understand? You do?! Well, get to it..."

The manager greatly exaggerated things, thought Kagura . The fresh produce wasn't too out of place. Shinpachi was out of commission from Kagura Falcon Pwnch, so she let him sleep it off. When closing came around, Shinpachi awoke to darkness...

"What the heck?! Oh my god, I smell like Koolaid!"

"Clean up on aisle 5! Clean up on aisle 5!"

"Kagura, get this mop off my face!"

"You sure are grumpy. Get up, its almost closing time. You can thank me later for doing your work for you."

"Wow Kagura-chan, I don't know what to say..."

"Whatev. Just get up."

She pulled him up, and Shinpachi immediately grabbed his shoulder with his hand. He didn't notice that Kagura placed her hand atop his. They looked at each other for a brief instant, and Shinpachi pulled away, blushing.

"Let's hurry and clean these floors up. Gin-san will get worried."

"Naw, he is probably fantasizing about NACJACs."

Shinpachi laughed and started for the Dairy Section. He noticed a man with a tray of food, breathing heavily.

"Zura...?"

"It's not Zura, its Katsurole! Want some?"
