by Yoshizilla-Rhedosaurus

2. Chapter 2

Mummipokey hummed to himself as he waited for a customer to show up. Coincidentally, one did, and it was a cloud like Foo, who was floating by the area.

"Excuse me, you weird mummified cactus," The Foo remarked as she blinked, floating in front of him. "Do you have anything for a small windy gal like me?"

Mummipokey murmured as he widened his red eyes. "Oh yes! But of course!" He then pulled out a bright yellow sock, holding it with one of his mummified cactus parts. "This sock before you is not ordinary... it was found somewhere in the Dry Dry Ruins! Its bright yellow color sets it apart from other socks. It says that it can increase your mood tenfold." He closed his eyes as he continued. "Rumor has it that an ancient Magikoopa was seen conjuring this sock deep within the pyramids of the Dry Dry Ruins..."

The Foo looked at Mummipokey oddly. "Isn't this just an ordinary sock?" She retorted as she glanced at it.

Mummipokey glared at her angrily. "If it was an ordinary sock, it would come with a double. Do you see a double?" He retorted right back.

The Foo shook her head as she blinked. "No... you have a good point." She then smiled as she nodded her head. "I'll take it!"

"Sold!" Mummipokey exclaimed as the Foo payed him several green dolalr bills, with the Huckit Crab taking the cash and stuffing it in the cash register, the Foo squirming her way into the sock as she squealed joyfully.
