Welcome to Gaia! ::

Zero opened the front door letting people outside know they were open. Zack usually sat in the back mixing the ingredients for the incense. With his more advanced smell the different combination's tended to be more than the average human could tell.

Zero stood filling the one wall designated for the different smells. The variety covered more than a thousand different smells making the wall go from one end of the store to the other. On the opposite wall sat a bench and various diagrams of human bodies for advertisement of how acupuncture worked.

Zack in the very back of the store was out of site. He appearance usually kept people from coming in the front door if they saw him. In between the room he was in and the front was the table for Zero to do his work.

Zack turned immediately stopping what he was doing. His skin quickly faded him into the background as he stood there. Now only a slight outline he examined the thing that had managed to sneak up on him. " Snake " Zack said with a slight sound of annoyance.

The instinct faded as Zack came back into view. He stood up from his sitting position now having to hunch himself over to keep from hitting his head. ( Zack is 7'6" when standing without his tail included btw. He just like to hunch so he doesn't stand out... as much.) His tongue flickered a bit as he tried to get the man's scent. It was only a second of silence before Zero was in the doorway. "He doesn't sell it..... Makes him feel like a cow." Despite the joke Zero wasn't smiling. " If you have something that needs done we can handle it i assure you."

Zack's upper lip quivered a bit And then he leveled his head with Muko's only a few inchs away. "You can suck it from your own veins if you call me that one more time..." Zero chuckled lightly then pushed Zack's head away. The snake man walked into the other room grumbling to himself as Zero stepped in front of Muko. " Excuse him he gets touchy when people call him a Lizard." Zack could be heard in the other room shouting. "We are ssnakes damnit!" - "Calm down!.......Now what have you to offer in return?" Zero looked at Muko with a curious look.

Zero closed his hand then reopened it reveling a small bottle no bigger than his thumb. " This is a small sample i had him give me so i could produce an anti venom. I'm sure you can use it to reproduce its effects." Zero offered the bottle his expression unchanged. He expected the man to keep his word, even thieves had rules. "Next time... use the front door."

Zero walked back out to the from room passing Zack as he went. Zack have Zero a look in passing " You ssshouldn't of given him that." Zero dissmised him with a wave and went back out front to continue putting the new stock away. The benefit of having someone to call for help was worth a bit of discomfort.

Zero was placing incense in the circular holes that had been placed into the wall. He heard the beads of the curtain and turned with a smile. "Hello welcome to fire and ice. Come to relax, buy incense, or just looking?" The girl was young so the usual reasons people came in didn't apply.
