" Plus one, is two."

she purred, eyes locked in on him as she had the already approved items waiting to be purchased.

" The loneliest number is one."

She replied with a smirk, pointing to the shoes.

"Exactly. One." Kai walked over with his one pair of shoes and put them on the counter.

Kai literally snatched them and threw them over the woman's head. Okay, she probably had a lot of things on him, but he had a whole HALF INCH of height on her. Take that.

Ajora sighed, catching the shoes, glaring at him.

" Here."

She stated flatly now, watching the woman ring them up in silence.

Kai looked at Ajora now, his expression so mixed that it was unreadable as he took the now purchased box into his hands and opened the lid to peer inside. However, as his eyes brushed across her choice, the emotion that crossed his face was like crystal. It was the look of mourning. He walked away and left everything there on the counter, taking not a single bag as he slunk straight out of the mall.

Ajora rolled her eyes.

Your going no where without me, now get back ehre before I treat you like the child your acting like.

She chided, lifting the items in question.

Kai was sitting cross-legged on top of the trashcan (it was one of those fancy ones that had the cover). He scratched absently at that place behind his right ear where her voice always echoed in his head when she spoke to him like this. Chiding was not the action to soothe sore nerves, so the man just sat there. Like she hadn't already treated him like a child? She couldn't let him have the tiny sliver of dignity, the minuscule boon that he wanted?

Malykai sat there for a long moment, glaring at her. She honestly had no idea. Then, all off the sudden he seemed to either explode or collapse. It wasn't exactly obvious which one. His legs unfolded and he slipped off of the can, speaking at her in a voice slightly more... emphatic than normal.

"Look! See what I noticed in the dressing room!" The man reached down and grabbed the hem of his shirt, pulling it all of the way off of his head. Yes, right there in front of everyone at the mall... well, not really considering that he was standing in a little alcove off of the main thing. Normally he would have been a little more nervous about it, but he was so distressed that it didn't seem to matter.

Across where the back Kai's right shoulder swelled in that place where the muscle connected his neck to his shoulder was a perfect purple-black bruise. It looked like someone had walked up behind him and bit him. Then, lower, just below the shoulder blade near the ribs was a huge (as in, bigger than a hand) blue-green bruise. The darkest, almost blue-black places seemed to be where the pads of a hand would strike in a shove, though they were nowhere near defined enough to be sure.

"That had never happened to me before! No matter what I saw! But you... and those shoes..." Malykai trailed off, clamming up and yanking his shirt back on, seeming to fade into a dark brood.

Ajora looked at him, overly confused.

What the hell was that all about? How are you hurt like that?

Kai turned around now, looking at her as his 'brooding' seemed to swell a little. He turned around and actually grabbed her upper arms. Granted, he was more or less a weakling and she was a vampire so it wasn't like he could have hurt her even if he had intended to, but still! It was difficult to separate his thoughts into something that resembled mental speech, but he managed to... He might have been yelling at her, but he wasn't sure nor was it intentional.

I saw it. I saw what would cause worse than this! I saw the bite! I saw the strike! It was the future - it can't have happened, yet these marks are on me! ...You! And those shoes! Kai blinked several times, pulling his hands away and balling them into fists.

"Speak to me. My head feels like it's been whacked off and stuck on upside down. I don't want voices in my head right now, and I can barely keep them out on my own." One could see that he was methodically drawing air in through his nose and out through his mouth. Malykai realized he sounded crazy, and he was trying to calm down, despite how shaken up he was.

" You saw what would cause that? And the shoes triggered it?"

Yep, disbelief on that one.
