The Last Sky Dragon (Part 3)
Link to part 1: http://forum.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=177928627
We approached the shopkeeper. He was taller than a Lipin, but shorter than a human. He sported a clean pair of shades, had a bald head, and his skin took on a green hue. “Yo, I'm Slicey, what can I get for ya?”
Grandpa Zak squinted his eyes, peering closely at the bald green man. He raised his finger, and slowly pointed at the shopkeeper. “I… believe we already… met.”
Slicey looked up, then jumped back. “Village chief Zak! Dawg, dawg… it’s been so long. This is real, my man. This is real.”
“Please do not… call me that.” “Oh right right. Gotta keep a lid on it. You two betta get behind the counter. There’s a lord coming. He comes along every week and get some tea. Guy’s got good taste, maybe a lil too good judgin by his belly. Heck he even reserved two seats at the dragon auction just for himself!” “Oh, did he?”
“Ya. I try not to pry into people’s business, but he tells me everything whether I ask or not.” “Does he… have any immediate family?”
Slicey lifted his dark shades. His facial expression became more serious. “Look dawg, I respect ya, but ya goin on a bad path here. Do what you wanna do, but leave me out of it.”
“Put a sedative in his drink… we need priority seating… at the auction. He probably passes out… every so often…” “Well… ya got me there, but I’m a nice guy.”
Grandpa Zak put a liquid vial on the table. Then the door to the shop started to creak open… Gramps smiled and silently mouthed the words “He won’t recognize me”
The lord knocked his head on the door frame as he entered. This man was a behemoth to say the least. His round belly jiggled as he stomped to the counter, taking a seat on one of the old wooden stools.
“A pint of chai tea, Slicey. On the dr-ouble.” His words were barely comprehensible behind those giant cheeks. It became clear that he was used to getting what he wanted. Then he just sat there, grinning, waiting like a puppy.
Slicey mixed up his tea and delivered it in one blur.
“Two and a half seconds. Usually it takes you two seconds.”
A bead of sweat went down Slicey’s face. “I’m uh… gettin a little rusty ya know? It hasn’t been the best day in terms of the sales and all that…”
“My goodness, however bad your day was, imagine how bad MINE was. My plane malfunctioned, so I barely made it here in time. If I didn’t reserve those seats, I would have missed the historic auction! Can you believe this nonsense? Hey… what’s this vial?”
The lord used his grubby fingers to pick up the vial, and hold it up to the light. “Ay uh… it’s just… a new formula that didn’t turn out very well, ya know!”
“Huh? New formula?! That could make my day. I give you a lot of business, Slicey, so I deserve to try this.”
“You really wouldn want it, dawg. It tastes real nasty.”
“I don’t believe you!” the man pounded the counter with his mammoth fist, shaking the entire shop, “You’re hiding your secret ingredients so that I won’t drink them! How DARE you insult a LORD like this!”
“I swear I’m not…” Slicey began, but it was already too late. The lord has already mixed it into his drink, and chugged it.
A few seconds passed, and he collapsed on the ground, splintering a chunk of the floor. Slicey was frozen in horror at the situation, but gramps smiled.
"Put that... on my bill"
