Morning had turned to early afternoon by the time Alpha had finished
setting up the caf� for business. A fuse had blown out just as she
started preparing {thins : things}, and it had taken the better
portion of a half hour to track down the box the extras were stored
in. By the time she had replaced the fuse, precious time had been
lost. Working diligently, (as though the human-looking robot worked
in any other way) the caf� was finally open. Now she stood patiently
by the counter waiting for her first customer of the day.
�Oh, I hope I remembered to pick up extra bleach when I was in town,�
Alpha said fretfully.
Wouldn't she know? Maybe she should wonder if she picked up enough.
�Get her!� one of the others shouted.
Alpha sighed. �I was afraid you�d say that.�
Don't you just hate it when that happens?
Business was slow, so the old man had decided to take a break from
working his garage/gas station and grab a cup of Alpha�s coffee. It
was the best in all of Yokohama. He wandered into the caf� and came
to an abrupt halt, taking in the sight of blood and viscera spread
all over the place. Alpha {stood : knelt} in the center of it all,
dressed in an apron and covered nearly head-to-toe in blood as she
scrubbed the floors furiously.
Shouldn't she at least have rinsed herself off before starting cleaning
the shop?
Alpha looked up from her work. �It�s the third time this month. I�ve
had more gangs attack this place than customers looking for a bite to
eat.�
Get Smart?
Alpha looked in the direction he was pointing. �That�s a kidney.
Spleens are shaped differently and are darker in color.� Alpha
stopped cleaning and sighed. �I hope Master Kenshiro finds his
girlfriend and gets back soon. Running the Fist of the North Star
Country Caf� is stressful, bloody work.�
You'd think even the slow gangs would avoid a place with a name like
that. Of course, if none ever survive to spread the word...
Yes, it�s a Fist of the North Star/Yokohama Quiet Country Caf�
fusion. Hey, both series take place in a post apocalyptic world where
civilization isn�t what it was. They both center on characters on
quests. One�s just more� violent, than the other. Why, they�re
practically identical. I�m just glad I managed to get the fusion done
before anyone else grabbed the idea.
You are one seriously diseased juvenile canine.
