Vargas and Amber leave the store, heading in the direction of the dock, to contact Yeti. A messages appears, telling them to meet at a small eatery right outside of the dock. It was decorated with dolls in the windows, which Vargas thought was creepy, but the smell around the place was heavenly. Smoke and fire cooked meat filled the air around the little store, and when the door opened, there was a mixing of herbs and spices that danced across his taste buds. Every bit of it reminded him of his mother.

Yeti was seated in the back, at a table for four. Both Vargas and Amber sit across from him. He looks at Vargas, then to his tattered clothes, and cocks an eyebrow.

“What happened to you Cap?”

“One of the Johns, cast some type of spell and before I knew it, an explosion happened around me.”

“Ouch, are you ok?”

“I’ll live, what did you get?”

“Biggs will meet you, but I’m not to be anywhere near the meeting. Per his request. Which suits me fine.”

“I guess he still hasn’t forgiven you then.”

“Nope and I still don’t blame him. He said this makes us even,” Yeti shrugs, “I just hope I never have to come back to this little backwoods Island.”

“I have the same feeling right now, but I still have to stick around to meet Biggs. I need to find some clothes before the meeting. When is it by the way?”

“Here in about fifteen minutes. Which is why I told you to come here. This will be during his lunch break, so it doesn’t look like someone is coming up to one of their chief of securities and asking questions.”

“Right, I guess that would cause him some trouble. Then is there a clothing store around here?”

“Maybe back at the dock, but you won’t have time to get there and back.”

“Well crap. I’ll just have to make due. I can use an overlay but I won’t know if he can see it until he gets here.”

“Better than nothing Cap, you are looking pretty ragged.”

Vargas gives him a dissatisfied glare. “Thanks. I picked this out this morning thinking it would be all the rage, tatters and all.”

Yeti smiles, “Well then it’s just how you wanted it to look.” He gets up from his chair, “I better make myself scarce. Also if you’re going to order something from Gracie, the waitress, take her advice on the biscuits and gravy. It is out of this world.” He walks out the door, making sure to check both ways before making a hasty exit.

Vargas pulls up his listing of overlay clothes – which wasn’t but a few pair he purchased years ago to try out the feature. He had always like physical clothes more, and they cost just about the same. Virtual clothing was a relatively new trend. You would purchase a blank white outfit, so you weren’t naked, and then used the overlay features to display what clothes you wanted. There was the occasional outliner, that went naked, but most people didn’t want to run the chance to have people see them like that.
