Girls just wanna have fun

Raziel walked through the large mall, wow this place was pretty big and with all sort of shops. Right now she was looking for somewhere to buy some new clothes. Her wardrobe was small right now, only two outfits, and on top of that she needed a Bikini. She had a mission tomorrow to survey someone on the beach. She was also supposed to take the new girl with her, Jessica. Raziel blushed slightly. It was odd that she found another girl attractive.

Raziel stopped outside one of the stores as she noticed some super cute swimsuits on display. Raziel gasped as she entered the store, the entire place was packed with swimsuits. Each one of them was super cute. She lost herself looking at all of the different swimsuits. That was until she remembered something, her gender. These things would make her... extra equipment very noticeable. Not good, not good at all.

Raziel started to look for a swimsuit that had something to hide her special something. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Damn it! None of these suits had any sort of frills or anything. Raziel felt defeated. She could just buy one of these for the tops then go to another store for a pair of swim trunks. Dejectedly Raziel picked up the first thing she found in her size and headed for the checkout. Why was she so sad about this? Was it because she wanted to look good for Jessica? No that couldn't be the...

There it was, it was perfect absolutely perfect. A yellow bikini with one of those cute skirt thingies on the bottom piece. Raziel dropped what she had in her hand and went directly for the yellow swimsuit. She checked it only to find that it was not the right size. Well the top half wasn't the bottom was just her size while the top was... too big. Raziel looked down at her smaller than average chest pouting.

“Finding everything alright ma'am?”

Raziel turned to the store clerk who had just spoken. On her face Raziel wore the cutest face she could. The store clerk was almost flustered by Raziel's cuteness. “Please! Help me! I have to have this swimsuit, but the top is not the right size!” Raziel complained acting as if the world was going to end if she didn't get the swimsuit. The store clerk's face melted as though she were looking at an injured puppy. Perfect.

“Don't worry I'm sure we can find you a top that goes with it that fits you,” she said leading Raziel through the store. Until they were at a similar set of bikini the only difference was that these ones didn't have the little skirt. “These are the same thing they just don't have the skirt,” The clerk said, “Go ahead and swap the top for one that fits you, just don't tell my manager, okay?”

“Okie! Thank you so much, nice lady!” Raziel said acting as cute as she could.

Raziel kept up her cutesy attitude until the store clerk was well and gone away from her. As soon as she broke the act her face contorted and she felt almost physically sick. She hated acting like that in front of other people, showing part of her true nature to other people made her nauseous. With a long sigh she turned to the rack to find one of the bikini tops that fit her. Wait wait wait! Hold the goram phone! Why was she so hell bent on having such a cute bikini? It couldn't have been because of the newbie could it?

No! She was going to look cute for the sake of blending in, and because she wanted to, not to impress some silver fox she had only just recently met. Shoving aside any doubt in her mind Raziel found a top that fit her and swapped it for the one with the skirted bottom. With that taken care of she headed for the checkout.

Raziel exited the store with her brand new swimsuit. When was the last time she had been swimming or to the beach? Maybe four or five years ago. It had been a while. Okay what else... more beach supplies, a towel, a parasol, some sun tan lotion, a pair of sunglasses. Excitement began to swell up inside of her, it wasn't often that she got to indulge in her more feminine natures. And right now she got to go shopping, something she secretly enjoyed quite a bit.

Oh she could also go buy some more outfits. Raziel's wardrobe could use some expanding. But for now beach supplies come first. Raziel began to saunter around the mall looking for somewhere to get those. She figured that beach season would be starting some time soon and so shops that sell them would want to start selling early. As she walked her tail swished back and forth behind her showing just how excited she was.

Nope. Nope. Nope. Bingo! Ted's sports and goods. Raziel entered the store to find a plethora of sports equipment and other such accessories. The sign outside said that they were having an early spring beach sale. Inside were several people shopped about for various items. Hhhhmmm? Where is the beach section? There! A smile came across her face as Raziel almost skipped towards the section. Once there she started by looking for a parasol. Ooohhh, that one was nice, a traditional red and white striped pattern. Or maybe that one, with the flowers.

So many options. A blue one with green polka dots, an orange one with little birds on it, a rainbow one. For several minutes Raziel stood trying to decide what design she wanted for the parasol. Until she saw it. The perfect one. It had a white background with several pictures of different foxes on it. Raziel grabbed it. Item one check.

Next on the list is a towel. This one didn't have to be anything special. They weren't too far from the parasols so she walked right over to them. Raziel looked over the towels some of them had some designs on them while others were just one color. As much as she thought this was going to be easy Raziel found herself stuck. Which one did she want. There was almost every color imaginable as well as all kinds of patterns and designs.

Shopping for beach supplies was far more tedious than she had originally expected, And Raziel loved it! She had never actually been able to go on a shopping spree before, whenever she went shopping with Julyet they had always gone directly to where the needed to go and bought only what was necessary. It was so much fun to be able to just buy things, to not have a real list to go off of, just an idea.

Eventually Raziel decided on an emerald green towel, due to the fact that it matched her eyes. She was surprised at how soft it was. This was turning out to be one of the best days ever, there was not much that beat getting to be yourself. Fighting maybe, but not much else. Raziel almost danced around the store as she grabbed several other items. An inflatable tube, because she would look cute in it. A pair of sunglasses. Some sun tan lotion. She blushed when she grabbed the last item.

The stray thought of the newbie spreading this on her back entered into Raziel's head. She blushed while looking at the bottle. “Looks like someone's thinking of her special someone.” “Ah to be young and in love.” Raziel overheard two women say to one another from just down the isle. She looked over to see the woman looking at her. Raziel immediately made for a different isle.

Raziel could hear the two women laughing to each other. Did they think that she... she was thinking of someone she loved when she was looking at the sun tan lotion? No it had to be a mistake, there was someone behind her that she hadn't noticed, yeah that was it. Calming herself she made for the checkout. A few minutes later she was back out in the mall looking for somewhere to go shopping.

It wasn't long before she saw a clothing store, exactly what she was looking for. Good, her wardrobe needed an expansion.

So many options, boots, shirts, blouses, jeans, skirts, dresses. Where to start? How about... pants! Raziel didn't actually have any pants, now that she thought about it she hadn't worn pants in years, only spats with a skirt over them. That one, and this pair, oooo! And those. She grabbed several pairs of pants and brought them to the back to try on. Unlike the bikini these things didn't have extra string to adjust their size so it was best to try them on first.

It wasn't long before her attitude was much much better. She had picked out several cute skirts to try on as well as some new blouses a few shirts and a couple jackets. This was turning out to be a great time. She was actually having fun. Too bad Aka'Ken wasn't with her. He would have loved to see her so happy. Her face was lit up in an immaculate smile and her tail swished back and forth behind her happily. Sometimes she hatted that tail, it would betray how she felt no matter how hard she tried to keep it under control. Damn thing had a mind of it's own.

Oh well right now she didn't care. Right now she was happy and didn't mind if other saw. After all being happy wasn't showing weakness... right? Raziel headed for the changing room to put on her own little personal fashion show.

For the next half hour or so Raziel mixed and matched the clothing items she had selected trying to decide what worked and what didn't. She would get dressed then stare at herself in the mirror, making poses as just generally trying to look good. Every know and again she would make a silly face and laugh at herself for it. She sat on the little bench in between outfits looked at herself in the mirror and just smiled.

It was good to smile, she felt a warmth inside of her she hadn't felt in quite some time. And of all the things to bring it out, shopping was what did it. She still had a few more combinations she wanted to try before making any decisions, but for just a few more minutes she would sit and smile. Smile at herself, smile at the world, smile at her clothes, smile for the sake of smiling.

Just a few more combinations of outfits later Raziel left the changing room with the clothes she wanted. She had left behind a few items, one of which was a skirt which turned out to be far too short for her liking. Her belt was longer than that skirt, literally. She cheeked out buying some items to expand her wardrobe. Well she had accomplished what she had come here to do, but she didn't want to go home, no not yet. She wanted this day to last.

A low grumbling noise came from her midsection. In all her joy shopping she had forgotten to eat. Hadn't see seen a food court back somewhere in the mall? Now a normal human might have to look for a map to find the food court, Raziel on the other hand could smell it out. With a long inhale she sniffed about for the scent of food. There!

Raziel turned and made for the smell, as she got closer the smells became more intricate, stronger, better. Her mouth began to water from the varying scents. Fried food, sweets, baked goods, burgers, noodles, chicken. When she rounded the corner to the food court her eyes went wide. So many options, some she had sniffed out others surprised her. Oh now she had a decision, and she wasn't sure what she was in the mood for.

With all the options it wasn't as easy as just picking a place, no. She had to weigh her options. Luckily unlike most people Raziel didn't have to worry about the little factor that made some people choose a salad over a delicious juicy burger. Her super strength even required that she eat quite a bit, and she wasn't complaining. Just meant that she could eat as much as she wanted when she wanted and not get fat. Win win.

Eventually Raziel decided on a burger joint, not a fast food place, but not exactly a fancy restaurant either. She had eaten at others places of the same chain before, “Blue Sparrow.” She liked their burgers and their milkshakes. The look on the waiters face was priceless when she ordered five burgers. He didn't say anything, but his look said it all: I don't think you're going to be able to eat all of that, but okay.

Now came the hard part, the wait, and considering the size of her order she knew that it was going to be a little while before her food came out. For now she played with what was at her table. Reading the ketchup, then flipping through the dessert menu. Oh man they had some delicious looking pie, but the picture was almost always ten times better than what it actually looked like. And besides she had already ordered a milkshake, banana.

This was starting to get boring, she was out of stuff to read or flip through or flick about. Suddenly in view, a waitress with a milkshake and from the looks of it it was a banana one. It was almost as though someone had turned the world into slow motion as the waitress walked towards her and began to place the delicious drink on Raziel's table. Yes!

Raziel curtly thanked the waitress then immediately went about drinking her milkshake. Ohhhhh the sweet taste of the ice cream mixed with the flavor of the banana. Perfection. Yes this would definitely hold her over until the feast arrived. Again she found herself smiling, and again she didn't care. Right now she was in her own personal happy world. As long as she didn't see anyone she knew. They might interpret this as weakness and if it's an enemy they might strike, and if it's a friend they may leave her. The thought made her frown.

But she forgot about all of that as she saw the waiter approaching with her five burgers, each with their own compliment of fries. As the plates were set down on her table the waiter and several other inhabiting the restaurant stared. This little girl couldn't possibly pack away that much food... could she? Oh yes she could and she was about to. The waiter left, though he stayed close enough to watch.

A wide smirk came across Raziel's face lit up in a wide grin. She grabbed one of the burgers and begin to chow down, in between bites she would grab a few fries and shove them into her mouth along with the burger. Several people in the restaurant stared in awe at the speed and ferocity with which Raziel shoved down the burger and fries. It wasn't long before she had finished her first plate. As she moved on to the second more people began to watch her eat. Soon the entire establishment had stopped to watch the gold fox devour her meal.

By the time she was on her last burger a crowd had gathered around Raziel and had begun to chant. It was almost embarrassing to her. Though at this point she as having too much of a good time and this only seemed to add to her fun. She grabbed the last burger and began to chow down. Half way through she stopped and ate parts of her fries. Back to the burger, back to the fries, back to the burger.

Raziel sat back in her seat all of her plates empty of any trace of food. Out of her mouth came a monstrous burp followed by cheering from the surrounding crowd. To Raziel this was kind of strange, but she knew that most people couldn't pack away food like she could so this was probably entertaining for them to watch. In any case the manager ended up giving her the meal for free so it was a win.

Raziel walked slowly through the mall. She had spent a day shopping and had eaten to her hearts content. That smile was still there as she left the mall and made for home.
