"So I'm supposed to wear this how?" John asked as he took a bra off of the shelf in the store. Nisan burst out laughing and John looked at her completely confused.
"Robin! Sophie! How am I supposed to wear this!?" John shouted across the store to them as he waved the pink bra in the air; they were at another rack with Pocahontas, looking at skirts. Sophie tried in vain to hold back a fit of giggles and Robin had her 'oh, my' look on her face.
Robin rushed over to where he was standing and took the bra out of his hand. "John," she hissed at him in a low voice, "we're in the women's department. None of these cloths are for you!"
Nisan wiped a tear from her eye and took John by the hand. "I'll take you to the men's department," she said, humor still showing in her voice. They walked off, John stunned and Nisan trying not to laugh again.
At the end of their cloths shopping experience, John was in a 'Pirates of the Caribbean' shirt and a pair of slightly too big blue jeans. He had on a pair of generic tennis shoes and a pair of sunglasses covered his eyes. The mirrored lens had fascinated him so much that the three couldn't get him to put them down.
Pocahontas was in a plain orange tee-shirt and kaki pants. She had on white flip-flops and her hair was pulled up into a ponytail by a beaded flower hair tie. Around her neck was her mother's necklace along with one with a fish pendant. On her wrist was an orange 'Tecumseh' wrist-band.
"You two will blend in better now," Nisan said as she took a step back from them. Robin nodded and Sophie tried to hold Meeko in her arms.
"Yeah, but what are we going to do about Meeko? We can't really call him a dog…" Sophie looked at her two friends; they both had a grin on their face.
"We'd need a leash," Nisan said, listing the items on her fingers, "and some tags. That would keep in him line."
"And if anyone asks," Robin added, "there's actually a type of dog in China that looks almost identical to a raccoon. It'll work!"
"We better go to the pet store then," Sophie replied, "And Meeko, you can't eat any of the fish in the tanks!"
...oOo…
"Well, this is it," Robin said as they walked closer to the Haunted House. "There hasn't been anyone living here for a while. It'll be perfect for you two!"
John looked at it wearily, not exactly liking the idea of living in a house with ghosts. Pocahontas, on the other hand, had no problem with it and rushed right in through the door.
The lights turned on and off again. A shiver visibly went down John's spine, but Pocahontas walked on, unafraid.
She wandered into the next room ahead of everyone. A quiet minute went by before Pocahontas let out an ear-splitting scream.
"Come on!" Robin called out, rushing to the next room, "She might need our help!" Nisan, Sophie, and John were on her heels.
A/N: Sorry it's so short, but I hope this gives you a good start Nisan!
