It took a moment for the three to calm down. but once they did, they sat at a nearby table in the store.

"so, Matt.." Matt turned to Jack as he spoke. "how did you get here, exactly. we got here thanks to Dave ("HEY") and his shenanigans'." Dave pouted at that. Matt chuckled at the two men's antics. before shaking his head. "I ending up here in a.. odd way. Remember Jimbo?" they nodded. "what does our former janitor have to with you. employee." Matt huffed at that. "we'll, i was somehow summoned by a guy desperate for workers. and then well, here I am!" Dave nodded. Jack sighed. and Steven rolled his eye. "and, your working for the guy, i assume?" Matt nodded. "right on, orange guy" Jack smiled a bit. "please, Matt. Call me Jack." the virgin huffed and smirked. "sure thing. Jack."

"so, what's the plan now. Old Sport?" Dave inquired. Jack hummed in thought, sticking his tounge out. it was an old habit he had as a kid that he never was able to break. 'cute...' was all the kiddie strangler could think of when he looked at Jack. Jack popped his lips, then turned his gaze to matt's. "why don't you come with us, we could use a guy who can show us around." Matt clicked his tounge for a moment, laying back in his chair, closing his eyes, he rested his hand behind his head. "eh, fuck it. why not?" Jack pumped his fist up in victory.

"well, then..." Matt, Jack, and Dave looked at Steven. "what are we, uh, waiting for, let's go!" Jack nodded and stood. "you're right, Steven." Jack turned to Dave, who in turn stood, followed by Steven. Jack turned to Matt, and held his hand out. Matt looked at Jacks hand, before putting his own on it. then stood. Jack let go and smiled. "lead the way, Matthew." He nodded and turned to the exit. "well then." he turned his head to look back at them, putting his hands in his pockets. "lets go." and then walked out, followed by the other three.

'hmmmm... Intresting...' the secret Faunus put her book down, looked at the leaving group. then she went back to reading her book.

Matt lead the fazbender group down a street, busy with life. people stared, of course. but they didn't mind too much. after a while of comfortable silence, Dave spoke up. "hey, Matt. where are we going?" Matt turned his head too look at the purple skinned man. "we're heading downtown, to a local dust shop, i know the manager their, he should be on shift today." Dave looked a bit confused but nodded. "uh, emp- Matt." Steven caught himself on his error. "What's a 'Dust shop'?" Matt chuckled. "dust, its a from of energy, gun ammo, all sorts of shit. if you wanna learn 'bout it, we can head to the local library first." Matt pointed to a building with a sign that read 'Library' On it. "okay, but why are we even heading to a fucking shop, Matt. Why not a Grill, I need my kababs." Dave held his lips in a strait line. Matt sighed and pulled out some lien. "well, My new boss needs some of the stuff, gave me some cash to get a good amount of the shit." Dave looked skeptical but sighed and accepted the answer.

after walking in somewhat comfortable silence. they reached a store labeled 'Dust till Dawn'. Matt smirked. "we'll here we are." He craned his neck to look at the rest of the group. "let's not waist anymore time. After you, Matt." Matt nodded at Jack. He pushed open the door, the four went inside, unaware of the rapidly approching danger, as another group followed.

DING!

the store was packed with canisters, glowing liquid, and crystals of all sorts of shapes and colors. 'So, THIS is dust. huh.' Jack thought as he looked at some crystals. Dave was checking out some of the powdered dust they had, and Steven was just looking around, soon he found a magazine section, there was somebody there, he could guess they were a girl. she was dressed in a red cloak that covered her face and hair, she also had a black skirt on, along with black boots, that was all he could make specifics of her attire was, as everything else was black, too. He didn't really pay her too much mind this WAS a shop, after all.

"MATT! so good to see you agian. How's Romeo?" the man at the counter spoke in a rough voice. Matt Smiled. "he's doing ok, John. I just need a bit of the regular, Romeos request." Matt took the lien from his pocket and stetted it on the counter, John nodded. "I'll take care of-" He was Cut off from the door opening agian, And in walked a guy in a shite suit, a sort of odd tophat, his hair was orangish red. behind hi were multiple guys in black suits, and red glasses. They looked like Rip off agents from Madness Combat.

"do you know how hard it is to find a dust shop open this late?" the man asked, stepping in front of matt, who glared at him, until of the Rip off agents pointed a gun at him, then at John. John put his hands up. "please! just take my lien! I don't want any trouble!" The Man in white shushed him. "no, we don't want your money." the turned to the other men. "take the dust." the men nodded, putting canisters in some of the tubes with the liquid was held. once The cans filled up with dust, they just take it off, and put another in its place.

"what the fuck do you think your doing?' the man in white turned tp look at Matt, who was so pissed his eyes were cast in shadow. The man Laughed as he held his hands in a shrug. "what to you think? Jeans. im Robbing a store!" He laughed agian. he closed his eyes. The something impacted him right on the nose. "GAH!" he fell flat n his ass, he looked up and saw Jack with blood on his fist, and a bit on his Suit. Matt was no where to be seen

BOOM!

a grunt was shot into the wall. a rotary phone followed, hitting the guy in his nuts. a girl and Steven came running up. "Matt, Jack. these guys are-!" Jack cut him off. "We know. Where's Dave?" Jack looked around as matt Slammed a shelf on the guy in white. Matt crouched down and looked him in the eye. "go fuck your self, bitch boy." before standing and dodging a grunts punch. before countering with a cock shot. "ERP!" the guy clutched his groin, before falling in pain. Matt walked away.
'where is that overgrown eggplant now?' before engaging more grunts and helping Jack and Steven

CRUNSH!

Dave Was on a fucking roll! he had been slamming these guys skulls in wit his trusty sledge hammer! He slammed his Hammer down onto a grunts leg, who in turn screamed clutching his broken knee. Before the same hammer was implanted into his skull. killing him. Dave Felt a fist hit the back of his head. turning he swung randomly, slamming his hammer into the aggressors face, throwing him onto the ground.

CRASH!

Dave's head snapped to where the noise had came from, and what he found was a sus white powdery substance, so, he did what any man would do..

SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEFFF!

heh snorted the powder. he felt fine at first, but when he went to stand, his chest erupted in pain, causing him to drop his weapon. clutching his chest he felt weird, and.. Powerful..

Dave screamed, eyes rolling back into his head. as everyone stared at him

then everything went black...
