Charles sat around the outside of a certain supermarket, wearing light sneakers and a hooded jacket. A large banner outside the store said "NOW OPEN AFTER RENOVATIONS". He flipped open his phone to check the time. Twelve o' one, Sunday. He started shadowboxing, as he waited for a certain someone to arrive. A feeling of excitement rose from Charles' gut, as he waited.

He was hoping the store was still full of shoppers like the last visit. Now that he had a friend to go with him, it would be a lot easier to wreak havoc. He pulled a cheap mp3 player from his pocket, placing the buds into his ears. The sound of a steady bassline slid into Charles' ears, causing him to start sliding backwards as he continued to shadowbox.

Naoya crossed the parking lot, spine bent like a question mark, bandanna pulled low across his brow. Though Charles was interested in causing havoc, Naoya had a short list of groceries to pick up. Hopefully there would be no conflict between the goal of confusing the hell out of people and picking up a small list of staples.

"H..." he began, then coughed, seeing that Charlie was wearing his headphones. Then noticed that Charles wasn't walking towards him, but was sliding backwards toward him, facing away.

This was a perfect opportunity. He had practiced for months.

He aligned himself perfectly with Charles, and began to mimic the movements of the other boy's lower half, seeming to pump his feet up and down on the ground, but sliding backwards. He kept his hands planted firmly in his pockets, ignoring the odd looks of the shoppers exiting. They looked...startled? Why would they be so nervous?

Charles stopped shadowboxing, and started bopping his head slowly, as he continued to moonwalk across the floor. As he started to bop his head, he noticed another boy had slid up beside him and started to moonwalk alongside him. He pulled the earbud from an ear, and looked over to the boy, then to the staring bystanders.

"Who will dance, on the floor, in the round?"
he shouted at the crowd, bopping his head in tune with the song playing in his ear.

"Think't's just me," Naoya muttered, glancing over, not breaking stride, then spoke louder, "so take m' strong 'dvice, jus' remember t' always think, hrmn, think twice."

His face turned red after that.

On second thought maybe a better choice not to sing along. He couldn't hit the high notes at all. Yeah, that was exactly why he didn't want to sing.

However, now he knew what Charles was listening to, he could follow it in his head. He started moving his head up and down in time, contorting his spine a bit to wag his head from the shoulders.

Charles resisted the urge to laugh, as Naoya tried to sing along. Thankfully Charles had taken a part low on high notes, and was saved from doing the same thing. Charles then ceased moonwalking, snapped his leg in front of him, then wound up his arms, spinning seven hundred twenty degrees on his toes.

He ended with a loud hoot and a large arm motion that started with Charles notching up the volume, and ended with him making a showy point to the sky. The song could now be heard by everyone in the vicinity.

"Not too bad for a 2000 yen mp3 player." said Charles, moonwalking again.

"Oh god. Too many spins."

Charles continued to moonwalk, doing his best to ignore the feeling of queasiness coming over his body.

Naoya stood still as his friend began the spin. He wasn't quite up to that -- with his posture, such a spin would have probably end up with him falling to the ground and bowling over someone in the crowd.

"Not bad 't'all," Naoya deadpanned as they began to dance again. He waited for Charlie to stop weaving as if he were about to fall over, then said, "I gotta pick up a few things. Mind'f we take all a' this inside?"

He began to head toward the door, still pumping his feet up and down and sliding backwards over the pavement.

"Sure, man. Let's head in." said Charles, feeling his body steady a bit. He moonwalked in with the boy, waving to a disgruntled janitor, as the walked in through the automatic doors. He continued to moonwalk, as the janitor kept staring at him.

"Damn kids... moonwalking... Hmph!" spat the janitor, shaking his head.

Charles simply shrugged, and continued to follow Naoya.

Naoya dragged a shopping cart from its bay, a younger sibling of their death machine, and consulted his list.

"Okay, s'the first thing I need's crab."

He began to moonwalk through the store, technically moving backwards, but not faltering one bit. They headed through the produce section, a path clearing behind them as confused market patrons got cleared out. The security guards watched, open mouthed, unsure of whether what the two were doing was against store policy.

"Y'think there's watermelon, yet? 'R is't too early, y'think? Maybe none've it's ripe enough, yet, 'n they probably got t' ship it in from Okinawa 'r some place. I'd definitely fight a man f'r some watermelon. Not kill, y'know, but I'd fight a guy for it. Do a number on 'im, 'n everything, but I'd definitely be a sport about the whole business. Maybe even share th' watermelon with'm afterward."

He looked over the racks of produce, measuring the fruit with his eyes. He didn't really need any of that, but he grabbed a bunch of bananas, anyway. Good source of potassium, after all.

"Yeah, watermelon would be pretty tasty right about now. Maybe they imported some from somewhere else or something. And you know, I fought a guy for an orange once. We were both really hungry, and bored. The nosebleed I got was totally worth it." said Charles. As he moonwalked with Naoya, a tail phased out of Charles, placing a bunch of bananas into Naoya's cart.

"Mind if use your cart? I'll pay for my own stuff."

He kept sliding along the floor, ignoring the fact that most of the crowd was pointing at his ass, as he grabbed a box of mandarins, also putting them in the cart.

"Well, there, Mr. I'm above the normal primate. Why did you grab some bananas?"

What, I have to be a monkey to like bananas? And speaking of bananas...


"BANANAS! B-A-N-A-N-A-S! THIS SHIT IS BANANAS!"

Charles fumbled around for the fast forward button on his mp3. Hopefully the fact that the song was in English would trip up anyone who heard it.

"Sounds like," he agreed with Charlie's story. For an orange?

When Charlie asked if he could borrow the cart, Naoya said, "Well, y'know, y'covered everything l...uh, when we went t' Don Quijote. I got this'n."

He looped around into the seafood section, his manner not indicating anything unusual about the direction he was moving in. People stopped as he and Charlie moved through their midst. Absolute nonchalance was necessary for this.

"Crab...crab...crab. Ah."

He grabbed several cans of crab meat, and looked down at his list. As he read, he reversed, moving backwards toward the tofu section, recovering a carton of momen-dofu, and pulling a styrofoam container of natto from the shelf.

"Y'know, I know no one else ea...enj...likes this stuff, but I just, y'know, can't wake up without it. Perfect start t' th' day."

He stopped to consult the list again.
