The two walked past the bicycle section, Okano shivering as she passed it.
"What was that about..."
"I think we're almost at the groceries." Said Kataoka.
"With any lock we'll-"
DING DING!
Okano didn'd have enough time to react before a bicycle drove into her back, knocking her into a nearby employee.
"My leg!"
Okano got up and dusted herself off.
"The heck?"
The bike skid to a halt. It was a two person bike being ridden by a pale bald man with a pointy nose and a pale man with an afro and heart sunglasses.
"Sorry gal pal, we didn't see ya there."
"Oh are we going to have to fight these guys now?" Asked Okano.
"Fight?!" Asked the bald man. "Oh nonononono!"
"We're pacifists, unlike the rest of the chaps here" added the afro man.
"Thats good..." Said Kataoka.
"Do either of you need a lift?" Asked he bald man. "Its the least we could do for hitting ya."
"Uh, sure..."
"Can we even fit?" Asked Kataoka.
"Of course, we got two seats right here."
"The afro man gestured to the two unoccupied seats on the four person bike."
"Alright, lets get to the groceries department." Said Okano.
The two girls got on the bike and they pedaled towards the grocery aisle.
The bike stopped in the grocery department and the two girls got off.
"Thanks." Said Okano.
"No problem, good luck shopping."
The two men rode away on the bike as Okano grabbed a bottle of garlic powder from a nearby shelf.
"Now all I need is milk."
"Thats in the dairy section." Said Kataoka.
"No shit Kataoka."
"Hey I'm just trying to help!"
The two walked towards the dairy section.
"So, do you think Maehara is fine?" Asked Okamo.
"Dunno." Replied Kataoka.
"The dairy section is just up ahe-"
Okano stopped in her tracks. Maehara was leaning against the milk refrigerator, injured.
"Maehara?!"
The pair rushed over to their injured friend.
"Guys? You found me?"
"Are you alright Maehara?!" Asked Okano.
"Not important, you gotta get out of here you two." Said Maehara. "This place isn't your average Wal Mart."
"What do you mean?"
"It takes people, turns them into something theyre not..."
"So everyone we encountered-"
"Turned into twisted shells of their former selves." Maehara interrupted. "Go while you can."
"I need milk first." said Okano
Maehara weakly slid his body to the left, allowing Okano open the refrigerator and grab a carton of milk.
"Thanks."
"No problem, now could you do me a favor?"
"What do you need?"
"Die."
Maehara pulled out a knife.
"Maehara?!"
"Maehara is gone! i'm whats left!"
Maehara charged at the two, but he was immediately hit by a foam dart, causing him to disintegrate.
"Huh?!"
Thats when they saw a fourth individual heading their way, a form dart gun in their hands.
"Isogai?!"
