Note to self.

Stop going to Animal Planet. Or remember they have things called portal to sneak through.

Moxxie half snorted as he put that reminder down in their head. Well, at least his time over there wasn't dull. New stuff in their notebook to write. I just can't do it there. Either up in space which hopefully will not run into dolphins. Along with adding turtles as well.

They were very small and dark. It made them blend so well in the coloration of space. Floats and swimming around. Almost look like normal sea turtles but he notices how the flippers are split in two. Watch them swim around and begin to eat star dust around them. Got to admit the turtles have been the chilliest giving them space.

Seriously, they are trying to not make these space puns on purpose.

Besides space, like they mention, the other options just back at the apartment. Either way kept them busy. Would open a little portal to sneak a peek through to watch their interactions. Research purposes. Did take very quick pictures for visual references. Nothing professional but it did its job.

Their new job right now is going out to get something to drink.

Where? They have new clues. Guess whatever catches their attention. Along with not shady, smells weird, or a fight already seem to have started.

Continued their walk for a long time. Didn't realize he passed a college school ground with firetrucks coming it. Did almost stop when he heard something.

"Yeah, something about rats?"

"A bunch of rats started a fire?"

"Apparently these were Wrath Rats and- "

Just keep walking. Just keep walking. Don't think about how those rodents are possible here now. Made another note to put extra magical barrier around just in case those pests somehow find them. If it's those rats.

Who he kidding? All those rats in Wrath are like a band. Probably their tunnel systems talk about them.

Okay that's enough thinking about them. It's probably nothing. It could be any rats. Pride has them too. Not just the sinner ones.

Check his time. Huh he been out a little longer than they expected. It's only 11:25 A.M.

Whelp time to continue what their original goal was. Checked through his phone and there were some areas to get a drink. A chocolate drinks. Stop as they were was one close by in the area they're walking in now.

Nightshade Café

Sees some decent reviews. Spot the first thing with chocolate. That's all that matters. Heads off to followed the map to reach their destination point. Look at the sign above that said Nightshade café. It was a two-story building. Look inside from the window didn't look to pack. Only one there seems to be a work. Goes to the door.

Inside was a decent size place. Taken care but can see blood here and there. Plants as well. Not like the lively plants you would see on Earth. Dead of sorts but still give an aesthetic feeling to the place. Even the flowers around look as healthy as they can be. A lot of vines in certain places. A few tables, booths, a section to add extra drink need addictions, and a section with some books. Then you got to the counter itself with two coffee machines, and the materials to make the drinks. Got to the counter with the glass to see what bakery goods were available. A menu high above on a chalk board. There was a tv hanging on the wall but it was muted.

Was correct as there was no one else in here besides the worker he sees. A young woman that you can tell a sinner. Light yellow skin. Wore a long sleeve top that was light purple color. A pair of pants. Under the sleeves can see vines. There was even a vine around her neck like a necklace. Very sharp as it seemed but didn't bother her in the slightest. Along with a actual golden chain necklace with a small oval shaped jewel. Just gold. Long deadlock that was dark green that was down with a dark purple headband. Yellow specks flying around her hair. Ears were long and styled like an else but actually a leaf. Black lipstick. Black sclera with a mix of two different shades of green pupils that glance at him.

Moxxie looked at the menu and was pleased to see Frozen Hot Chocolate on the menu wall. Check the pastries as well. "One Frozen Hot Chocolate and Chocolate Tart."

"Anything else?"

"No, Mame."

The plant woman looks a bit surprised. Then she shrugged. "That'll be $8.50."

Hands her the soul money and walks to a table.

"Hey your change- "

"Tip." His tail pointed to the tip jar. Didn't see the startled look as she put it away. He sat at a table that no one would barely notice him. Which he didn't mind. Got his notebooks out from their bag they brought along. A little hum as he starts to write a bit.

His order was done. He gets up to go get. He takes a sip of his drink with his tail wagged a little as he sits down. Same with the chocolate tart.

The sinner chuckle slightly at the behavior. They'll get different types of beings, weirdos, and disgusting creeps in here. Probably one of the rare ones who actually stinks polite she gets. Not counting certain customers. Even with no air of threat around them. Just seems to want to be alone, enjoy what they have and do their work. It was nice. Were they students? If so, she doesn't see a lot of imps.

The door slammed against the wall very loudly. The bell ding loud.

She looks across at the entrance and she twitches. Not these three idiots! Now ever since making this café she'll have those trying to cause her trouble. Besides the normal idiots. Like these three idiot druggies right here who always try to rob her.

Try is the key word.

Now Ivy isn't weak. Stood her own ground this long for many years. She has her own set of skills ready to be used. Glance at one them as she growled. One of them actually brought a flame thrower. Let out a growled, pissed now. The vines shaking around her.

"Give us all the money, along with the milk weed!"

"I politely say fuck off."

"Wrong word bitch!"

"Now why don't you listen this time around. Don't want any arson to spread all around. Hand us the mone- "

"Why you want milk?"

The three turned to see some Imp with a long scarf, glasses with an unimpressed look. Just drinking his chocolate with their eyes just seems dull. Like they were watching a boring show.

"Shut up your dumb bitch and stay out of it! We are here for the weed stash!"

"For the last bloody time I don't make those kinds of drugs."

"Drugs! Poisons! There the same thing flower brain!"

"So, cough it all up."

"Yeah, and you shrimp don't say a thing!"

"Shrimp? Am I supposed to be insulted?" Not phased as the guns, a flamethrower all point at his direction now

"You weed bitch! Give us what we want now. Before, this fool will be a reason this shop will be burned down!"

"If you want milk so bad go to the store across." Point at the convenience store. "Should have plenty unless your picky on what brand of milk."

"List here you little smartass! We are talking about drugs!" The imp yelled; the other two companions were another imp along with some aquatic hell born.

"Drugs aren't milk? Unless you put it in to be mixed with milk. Drug shake?"

"Just shoot this fool!"

Before they can even start. Moxxie pulled out their handgun as he shoots the two hands holding guns.

"OUCH!"

"OW! BURN HIM!"

"On it-AHHH!" The one with the flamethrower got kick in the chest when Moxxie charged at him. Grabbed the neck with the tail and was thrown to their companions on the ground. They lost hold of the flamethrower.

The three druggies grown as Moxxie stood over them. Kick the weapons to the back.

The plant worker stared in absolute shock.

"I *gasp* think my ribs *gasp* are broken."

"When we get up your dead- "Stop as the Imp had a gun at them. Hands up in surrender.

"Hey let me take care of them." The woman said as she jumps over the counter to approach them.

"Your shop." Moxxie walked past them.

Before the Druggie robbers could do anything, vines grab a hold of them.

"By the way I'm keeping those." Ivy glared at them as she walked out of the cafe.

"What?"

"Now get out of my store!" Throws them far into the air.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Close the door and use her vines to pick up the weapons. Glance at the imp that went back to doing their business. "Hey kid need a job?"

"Huh?" Blink a bit in surprise.

"Do you have a job?"

"No?"

"Want to sit down to work something out. Just part time if you like. I'm open five days a week."

"Can chocolate be my payment?"

Done!

You all just met Ivy! again, As you know she is own by MistraltheSkelegirl . . They have helped me type out this part of the chapter along with many others. If you recall in the first book in Ch 129 Ivy did get a redesign update. Here she is if you missed it or not. Nightshade Café is also owned by them.

The three idiots don't get a break.

The Rats still came back because that professor had no common sense.

Any questions?

Until next time.

Bye, bye!
