Five days before…

The girl turned around and hung a long purple gown back on the rack next to an empty mannequin and turned to the door as it chimed. The light shown on her shoulder length blonde hair and on the three clear marbles strung on a silver necklace around her neck, clear with a slight colored tinge in the middle, the middle marble was red with two green ones on either side. She was wearing a long sleeved blue silk shirt with Celtic knot embroidery at the cuffs and at the elbows and a mid thigh length brown fau-leather vest pulled over it, censured at her waist with a brown leather belt with a large silver buckle with two fake daggers strapped to her sides, a name tag was clipped to the front of it. Her long legs were hidden with blue pants tucked into knee high leather boots and a blue silk scarf tied around her head completed her pirate ensemble. She looked up, her blue eyes watching them as they came up to the counter and she walked up behind the counter dusting off her hands.

"Hello, welcome to Milo's how may I help you?"

"Yes, I'm looking for a costume for a Masque that is in a few weeks and I'm told that this is the place to be."

"That it is, please, what kind of costume were you looking for?" The tall gentleman stopped for a moment, and tapped his chin with his hand.

"Something dark, maybe a vampire costume or some sort."

"Alright, our horror section is this way." She led them toward the right of the store where there were many darker colored costumes, each elaborately designed, hanging on mannequins. He perused the section going past witches robes and devil outfits and came a crossed a simple looking sorcerers robe, but when the light moved, the fabric seemed to have a life of its own, exquisitely detailed needlework decorated the hems, depicting scenes of battle. A gold diadem came with it with a semiprecious red stone centered in the middle of the forehead and a tall intricate dark wood staff was next to it, the carvings on it made the staff seem almost ethereal.

"I see you like the Dark Sorcerer's robe, is it something you may be interested in?" He looked it over one last time and nodded his head slightly.

"Yes, this is exactly what I was looking for."

"Please follow me and we will get your measurements." They went into one of the fitting rooms and she went over him with the measuring tape, then she had him put the robe on and she jotted down a few notes. "Alright, may we have a number to contact you when…?"

"No, I will be back in three days, be finished by then." She nodded, used to self important people.

"As you wish."

Okay, to all you readers, I'm re-writing certain parts of this story because I can't seem to figure out just WHAT I was thinking when I wrote them into the chapters, so there will be a few changes, but hopefully I will have the whole story up soon!

Author: This one is also done by me Dragonmist1, my sister I'm Blink is posting it for me.

No final fantasy characters yet, one will be in the next chapter.
