A/N: Annnnddd the omakes are back! Sorry about the long break, summer classes and all that fun stuff.
Zed stalked his way around the outskirts of the Placidium, staying on the tops of buildings when he could to avoid the small number of people walking around. Considering that it was the dead of night, there were very few people out aside from some guards. Finally he made his move. Jumping down, he ran into the 24 Hour convenience store and headed straight for the baking aisle. The door rang out a belated chime. While searching for his target, the door chimed again
Shiina, the on duty cashier, watched in fascination as Shen, the Eye of Twilight, prowled through the store, seemingly also searching for something. The man who came in before Shen seemed frustrated by his inability to find his object. Shen then walked down the baking aisle. Their eyes met in a cold dead stare. Shiina was certain that something was about to happen so she reached under the counter and grasped a metal object. When she pressed down on it, it rang out with a satisfying *click*
Both of the men suddenly broke their gaze and grasped an item off the shelf, exclaiming a unison "Ah ha!" Though their faces were covered in masks, Shiina could tell that there was a grin growing on both men's faces, creating an odd reflection of each other.
Brothers perhaps? Shiina thought to herself.
The man and Shen held their grips tight. In the first man's hand was a pack of milk chocolate, and in Shen's was a bag of white chocolate. Reflecting each other again, both men grabbed the bags and held them up to their face, giving it a nuzzle of affection.
Shiina put her weapon away and leaned on the counter as the two men began shopping in earnest, both picking out baking supplies that only slightly differed. With each new item the men gave each other heated glares as if to say 'How dare you like that trash!'
Great, just what I need right now, two overpowered brothers fighting over baking ingredients. What a pair of idiots.
A few minutes later the men walked up to the counter placed their supplies on the counter top. As they were placing their supplies onto the counter each would give the other a glare or make some sort of off handed remark about the others choice on ingredient.
"Peanut oil? Only amateurs bake with peanut oil." Zed remarked.
"I can't believe a 'professional' chef like you is using something as common as Canola oil. Ugh...is that milk chocolate you are using?"
"Only the best, unlike that white chocolate you have there."
Shinna butted in, "Are you guys ever going to pay? I have other customers to tend to."
The two men looked behind them, only now noticing a line of other customers with baskets full of miscellaneous items waiting to check out. In unison they reached into their uniforms and grabbed a handful of coins exceeding their total bills, smacked them onto the counter, and hastily walked out while continuing to make remarks about the other's choice of ingredients.
Shiina sighed again, I'm never trading shifts again, night shift has all the crazies.
