"Wow...holy shit.", Tiki gazed around the room.

"Let's see...guns, weapons, highly durable, military class armaments...yep, that should be all. What do ya think?", Niki folded her arms.

"Which part of that sentence is legal to any extend?", Ikarisa asked.

"Uh, since we are next to Corosta basically, most of those are legal. But since Corosta is reduced to pebbles...I dunno, honestly."

"Do I look like I care? Let's get on with it! Massive ass kicking is to be had with these things, and I need it! What do you have for sale?!", Tiki excitedly said.

"Everything!", Niki showcased the stock with her hands.

Tiki's eyes sparkled, "I'll take your entire stock!"

"Nope, I don't think we will, Tiki...it'll be highly impractical to overload ourselves with...well all this." Let's just stick with the plan and find you what we were looking for, since it's almost time for the pharmacy's opening."

"Dammit shorty...why spoil the fun like the meatbag?!"

"You gonna lament for everything you couldn't get or get something out of it?", Niki approached the stock.

"Let's just see what you've got!", Tiki went after her.

Niki scrambled around the newly acquired boxes, finding a multitude of new wears in it. Clothing that looked fancy, straightforward and gloomy at the same time, was all that could be seen in the three boxes opened...

"So...based on the fashion and science research done by the La Armament Bêta labs and that one weirdo scientist in Gardard, this is the result of their latest project.", Niki showed them a big metallic casing.

"So...illegal weapons?", Ikarisa folded her arms.

"No, not really. They are both official addresses and agencies after all. You can look it up, their website basically describes everything...that being said this can become an illegally acquired 'prototype'. I'm calling it a 'prototype' because apparently, it was supposed to be a beta weapon which the L.A.B. excels at testing at, but instead it was ordered to be a fully complete project by the National Institute of Warfare Tactics and Weaponry."

"So in short, illegal?", Ikarisa raised her eyebrow.

"Uhh. No? I mean, according to Anya, and the contracts I was sent a copy of, there is an explicit statement that Golver Industries has full ownership of this project for testing and expanding upon. Now, the exact reasons why we even got this in the first place is completely unknown, but the papers say we are eligible basically. Look I ain't a lawyer, I just like these things and saying 'yes, you can' from a piece of paper is good enough for me!"

Ikarisa sighed. "Ok, ok...I just...don't want any more trouble of such things."

"So, what are we actually...looking at?", Tiki looked around the suit.

"It's considered an enhancing battlesuit. It's completely based on transcript of some RnD department of the previous era. It's speculated that it's mainly from Dirunon, but there isn't exactly a specified location. So far we know that it's originated from Victoria and that's it. What this thing does according to reports is that it 'Highly amplifies all Obsulyte signature and secondary energy sources for the user, turning it into a weapon devastating to face.'. Now I don't know what the secondary source means, but what I do know is that this thing has been classified as a Level 1: Alpha on the N.I.W.T.W. Now that'd be words in the air, until I mention the fact that the previous era blueprints that allowed for the creation of dark matter nukes, are classified as Level 2: Catastrophe threat."

"So this thing...some fashionista cutie clothing is classified as a higher threat than a nuke able to literally flat and decimate countries is seconds?", Tiki said.

"Yeah, basically, bomb go boom, panties go kaboom.", Niki shrugged.

"Hell yeah! Lemme wear it!", Tiki got her hands on the suit.

"W-Wait! Tiki! We don't know what this can actually do!", Ikarisa tried to stop her.

"Look, despite this, I'd highly suggest she wears it. She's one of the few, if not the last, combative demon class warrior who survived and this specific battlesuit seemed to be very catered towards demons specifically.", Niki said.

"Wait...why demons? Doesn't the world hate us and pisses their pants if they're up against us?", Tiki stepped back.

"Uh...yeah. But that doesn't mean that they don't recognize our raw power. In addition to that, it's substantially easier to conduct experiments with demon based Obsulyte, since extracting it merely takes a few flasks of blood, as opposed to several long term extraction plans for...well, every other being essentially."

"Demons overflow with strength, most likely not to control it. So, that said, the made a prototype of such a powerful weapon with the most powerful source of energy to run it from the beginning?", Ikarisa said.

"Yeah, basically.", Niki gave a thumbs up. "Pretty cool, not gonna lie. Now, there's no need to worry, Tiki can wear this in the sense that it'll be more compatible with her. Also means that you can also wear it, since it's not just locked on to someone, just made easier to control and use by someone. And as far as the nuke comparison goes, this is of course a much more controlled weapon, unlike a press-one-button-die bomb. I'm not exactly expecting her to blow up on the spot when she wears this...I hope.", she whispered.

"What was the last part?!", Ikarisa said in surprise.

"Nothing! So here's the booth!", Niki shoved Tiki inside the changing booth, "Here's the suit!", she tossed the metal crate with the battlesuit in, "Have fun!"

Tiki closed the booth door and began changing in the newly acquired armament of an outfit...

"Yeah, this might take awhile. Once she changes, I'll need to do some fine tuning with the suit itself. And uh...oh, pharmacy opening hours! You've seen it before getting here, right?", Niki looked at her phone.

"Yeah, I have...is it really ok to leave Tiki here?"

"Oh, not a worry. No sound comes in or out of this door and not even bombs can brake it down. Have to keep the new stock safe after all!", Niki giggled. "I'll browse a vid or something, you go get the meds and she will be ready by then."

"Ok, got it, thanks!"

Ikarisa then proceeded to get out of the store and start heading backwards to where the pharmacy was. Walking inside the now open pharmacy she found nothing but the ordinary. Small items here and there, beauty products on the front and all sorts of remedies behind the desk. She looked around, trying to find someone to help her navigate, none answering her calls...

"Umm...hello? Is anybody here?", Ikarisa got anxious, "I know...relax.", she exhaled. "I won't get stuck in silence again...but where is everybody? The store is open...", she talked to herself.

Approaching the counter, she hoped to find someone in the back rooms after ringing the bell...

"Hmm?", Ikarisa leaned over the counter after hearing some rustling, "What the-!"

Ikarisa found the pharmacist in the most unusual of circumstance. Gagged and bound by a rope, he was completely pinned on the spot.

"Oh my gosh! I-I uh, lemme help!", Ikarisa quickly removed and took off the rope off the pharmacist's mouth.

"They stole things! They're running away!", the pharmacist yelled.

"What, who?!", Ikarisa looked around.

"There!", the pharmacist looked forward, stretching his head.

There it was standing. A tall, menacing looking figure covered with nothing but a run down brown cloak. As soon as she made eye contact with the cloaked figure, it started running to the opposite direction.

"No you're not!", Ikarisa took to the chase.

The two started hurrying along the mall's second floor, running across the halls.

"Tsk.", the cloaked figure bashed into a food stall.

They started throwing all sorts of foods and items to stop Ikarisa.

"Huh?! Woa!", Ikarisa avoided a plate. "Hah!", she avoided a wooden disk. "Stop it!"

The cloaked figure continued throwing items and moved on to the food.

"Heeh.", she lodged foods at Ikarisa.

"Hah! Jokes on you! Mmm!"

Ikarisa rapidly started grabbing and consuming the delicious foods the figure threw at her, gulping everything down with little to no effort.

Ikarisa ate a cupcake. "Mhmh! Thesty!", she got hit with a toast slice. "Ghota eet thet to!"

Ikarisa placed the toast at the tip of her mouth as she kept running, all while chewing the cupcake in the back of her mouth...

"Haah! Refreshing!", Ikarisa kept running. "You know I ain't gonna stop, right?!"

Reaching a small, bridged, intermission point, the cloaked figure pulled a large, fully metallic scythe out of its back before taking a peek on its back. They then proceeded to cut the first two cables off the bridge before running to the other side, further cutting the last two supporting cables. The metallic bridge cracked the glass railings as it crushed to the ground, smashing a bench with a small garden around it.

"Haah!", Ikarisa summon her lance.

Using her lance, Ikarisa was able to hurdle herself from one end of the gap to the other, successfully continuing her per pursuit. The two kept going and going throughout the entire second floor until they reached the edge of it at a small balcony area, covered in relaxing dim lighting, beautiful reflecting glass statues and aromatic flowers. The cloaked figure then turned around to face Ikarisa.

"You're hindering mission progress.", the figure said.

"Mission?! What mission?! You stole essentials from the pharmacy!"

The figure started turning around and preparing to jump off into the distance. Ikarisa mustered all her recovered strength and managed to raise one singular blade from the figures feet that flew upwards, barely scraping across her face. What then happened was that the cloak was needly cut in the middle, causing it to softly fall to the ground and revealing the face of the perpetrator. It was a young, beautiful looking girl with silver hair that reflected off the surrounding statues. Not much for wears, as only white latex clothing could be seen on her skin, boots, shorts and gauntlets, with the inscriptions of "007" and "FL" on them. A small watched was all she was holding onto tightly, as if her life was depending on it and a massive scythe that appeared partially broken was lifted on her back, as she softly grabbed on it, extending her right arm along with it.

"This stops here.", she said.

The girl then proceeded to, in a flash, destroy every single statue around her, shards flying left and right. In the middle of the carnage, she jumped backwards off the second floor and landed on her feet, preparing to dash off the exit. Ikarisa tried to follow by covering her face through the glass. Just at the critical moment when she placed her foot on the railing, however, a large piece of glass came across her, surprising her and messing up her jump.

"Shoot!", Ikarisa fell down.

In the bottom waited a huge, sharp pile of the drooling glass from the second floor, the only thing besides the hard cold ground to cushion her fall. Before she could make contact, the girl paused completely, looking back towards Ikarisa. She then dashed back, jumping towards her and kicking Ikarisa to the side, pushing her out of the way, a shoving herself backwards. She made eye contact with Ikarisa once again before dashing to the exit and out of sight.

"Wait!", Ikarisa got up, "She's...out for good already."

Ikarisa took out her phone and dialed in Tiki.

"Tiki! Are you done changing?", Ikarisa said.

"Pretty much. Niki is doing the final touches to the battlesuit. What happened?"

"You didn't hear anything?!"

"Uhh...should I? Everything is fine where I am right now.

"Oh...the back room of the store is...of course.", Ikarisa facepalmed.

"Shorty, is everything alright?"

"I...no. There was a theft at the pharmacy and I came in contact with the culprit. She escaped but I want to follow after her in the direction she went. Please, when you're done, grab the medicine from the pharmacy and give them to everyone, I've got to go!", Ikarisa closed her phone and dashed behind the girl.

"What the hel-", the call closed Tiki off.

Tiki got worried immediately, screaming at the now closed call.

"How did all this happen?! It's been like thirty minutes!", Tiki yelled.

"Well...as far as that goes...uuh...there. We're done. You can head out right now to start covering some ground behind the little goddess!", Niki patted Tiki in the back.

"How do you know that too?! Have you wired my phone too?!", Tiki yelled.

Tiki sat by the door and pointed out the room, "No, but next time you want to answer a call, make sure it's not on speaker. Now go get 'em!"

Tiki nodded and dashed out of the room to grab the medicine and give them to everyone, hurrying to be able to catch up to Ikarisa.

"Best of luck to you general. Our hopes and dreams are with you.", Niki looked at Tiki running in the distance.

And as Tiki took to the chase, leaving everything behind and making haste towards Ikarisa, anxious about the situation and with a small scent of excitement to lay trial on the battlesuit's ability...
