i was walking in the forest of truffula trees when i saw a thneed boy wearing tiGHT pants

[ WHO ]: Garry and Once-ler
[ WHERE ]: at the maaaaaaaaaaall
[ WHEN ]: Daylight hours
[ OPEN/CLOSED? ]: Closed until further notice
[ RATING ]: PG maybe worse later
[ WARNINGS ]: sexy gasmasks

So Garry had taken that tv program seriously, and had went out and got himself a gas mask - Once-ler was being nice enough to indulge his worries by getting one for himself, too.

"Are you sure you can put it on without it hurting? Want me to help?"

"I'm pretty sure I know how to put on a gas mask." He says, grinning wryly. He didn't want to take any risks himself - if people had died from dust from the coal mine around here, it'd make sense not to tempt fate. Garry had just done what he'd have considered smart.

All the same... turns out a gas mask is kind of complicated! He fumbles with it for a good while.

"... Fiiiine." He gives a faint whine to it, rolling his eyes as he does. But he softens it with a grin, and holds the front of the mask as instructed.

"Er... nope!" His voice is strangely altered by the mask, but probably not any more than the usual. He touches the edges of the mask, then turns around and gives Garry a grin. While he can't see the grin, maybe he can see him waggling his eyebrows.

"So. How'd I look?"

He blinks at the head bop, but he gives a little grin that crinkles his eyes and shoulders his axe. The grip and handle is covered in red tape, but the blade is sharp. He's prepared this time. Funny what a place will do to a man.

"Yeah. We'll keep our eyes peeled. But remember what we're here for." He fishes around in his pocket for the list they'd drawn up. "Backpacks, maglights, sleeping bags, flashlight and radio... preferably kinetic, but batteries if we need them for them. We'll need to grab more stuff for first aid, too."

There was more on the list, but he was sure there'd be some sort of camping store they could get some of this stuff at at least.

'Dark' is unfortunately relative in Jigoku. The Once-ler doesn't think he's seen a single bright day here. The closest is the grey overcast they have even now. What had happened to Japan's close summers?

But, well, at least they had some time. He nods his head, then slips his blue glasses over his eyes. He feels kind of stupid all decked out like this, but there's admittedly a bit of a thrill to it as well. They're really getting into the spirit of the place.

"Six PM rolls around, we start heading back for the apartments. You got your Jigokuberry?" He waggles his own before tucking it into his pockets. He can't wait until he gets a rucksack for himself and can carry more stuff.

They stick mainly to the roads, eyes peeled for any movement.

There's not many buildings between the Hardware Store and the Mall, but the Once-ler glances inside the windows to make sure nothing is about to leap out and chase them. Satisfied, he turns his head back to Garry. "We stick together." The slight softness of his hard letters is a testament to that - the scars from the Kuchisake-Onna are well healed by now, but they serve a constant reminder.

And they enter the parking lot of the mall.

Once-ler would give a low whistle if that was difficult nowadays - and also if he wasn't wearing a gas mask. But he gives Garry a thumbs-up nevertheless, and even pats his bicep rather obnoxiously as he passes. "Not bad, Mr Garry." He tips him a wink.

The Mall is exceptionally eerie, dusty and quiet. He doesn't like it, but he doesn't like anything in this place. His eyes scan the shops - clothes shops for the most part, always worth a look but only after they'd got what they needed - and tries to find the ones that look likely.

"Got any idea where to start?"

"Pharmacies. There's gotta be one in here. Malls always have them." Even if they're less 'pharmacies' and more 'places where you can buy shampoo and makeup and some painkillers'. Even if it's just a simple first aid kit, it's worth it.

There's a rattle, a groan. Once-ler spins around, axe in his hands, and faces the shops.

Shaking his head, he waves his hand back at Garry, telling him to stay there. "Keep looking! Whatever it is, it'll be better if we know where to run to if we need to."

Easier said than done, of course. His arms are shaking and he licks his lips, forcing himself to stand his ground and not go poking around for lights to turn on.

A whimpering sound. Wet squelching. Another groan.

Something moves in the display window of the clothes shop nearby.

Once-ler doesn't need to be told twice. He sprints off with Garry in the direction he pointed. Avoidance was better than confrontation in all cases.

Grabbing Garry's arm in his free hand, he veers into the pharmacy. Thankfully, the sliding doors here seem to work, and they open with a soft woosh. The lights flicker, burst and die. He curses, momentarily blinded by the flash, his night vision gone to shreds.

"Damn..."

"... Better get looking." He takes off his glasses, hoping that will give him a little less darkness to need to work with. There's still glaring spots in his eyes, but it's so much better.

He doesn't hear anything right now.
