Incidents ; Good and Bad

Slade POV

"Um, hi?" I say as I turn to the human. The human smiles, I notice that their a male.

"Hi, you look new, want some help?" He says as he points to his badge. It reads 'Assistant'. Going from the badge to his face, I notice his nose.

Not to be rude, but it's stands out.

It looks fairly ordinary besides the large lump halfway up the bridge of his nose. Attempting to ignore it, I smile back. "Yeah." I reply, scratching the back of my head. "I'll need a tour."

"Sure, no problem." He starts walking further down to the centre of the mall. I glance back, and I confirm that my family is no longer there. I turn back and walk after him. As we walk, the human continues talking. "Due to your height and how you currently loom over me I'm gonna assume your a mini ?"

"What?" I reply immediately, alert of the shortened name.

"You know, a mini giant."

"Uh-yeah, I am." The human nods his head as I speed up to walk beside him. I look forward, attempting to ignore his nose, and the fact that he only reaches around half-way up my bicep.

Our first stop is outside a shop with windows filled with odd colours and objects of all sizes. The human smiles and enters the shop, quickly followed by myself. "This is Chazi, the shops that sells random stuff that no other shops sells. Its also one of the few shops that exists on the smaller version the mall and not the giant's one." The human leads me to the counter, where a middle-aged human sits.

After almost an hour of showing me around, as well as me buying assortments of all kinds, I'm being lead back to the Collecting Area, before noticing a small shops with the windows crammed with mannequins covered in some trashy, some flashy and some right out weird. "Hey, can we look in there?" I ask the human. He follows my gaze before responding.

"Yeah, sure!" He smiles. We enter the shop, Brit's Botannic Bonics reads in neon orange lights. As we walk down the isles, I notice a selection of clothes that I like the look of, including a grey shirt with a red cat, and a red one with birds in flight along it. I take the clothes off the hooks and carry them to the front desk. Since a Human/mini Giant currency ceases to exist currently, the people who sell things have phone numbers added so they can track you down when the currency is introduced.

I give the girl at the counter my parent's number, she checks its liability and gives me the clothes with a smile and a "Thanks".

The human and I start walking back to the Collection Area. "Thanks for today, but I never got your name." I say.

"Oh right, it's James." He replies. I stop, thinking, there could be countless people named James in the world, especially humans, it can't be him...

"Nice to meet you, my names Slade." I finish, resuming my walk.

It's James's turn to stop now. He looks up at me, right in the eye. One look tells it's filled with anger. "Slab?" He hisses.
