Inside the shop

"Oh, I wouldn't worry about that!" Not one for waiting around with no reason, Sabrina ripped open the packaging, and got to installing her new expansions. "Okay, installation complete! Feeling okay, SplashMan?"

"Zzz..."

"I should've known better than to ask that, shouldn't I...?" After tossing the utterly destroyed packages in a nearby trash can, she took a walk outside, adding some programs to her Navi as she did so.
Enjolie walked into the store and took a few moments to search around the store before moving up to the counter. She took her credit card out of her purse and set it on the counter as she called out for the shopkeeper.

"Um, I'd like three HP Memories please. It should be 4,500z, right?"
((Bump))
"Hmmm? Yea, thats 4500z. Should have probably saved up for a speed upgrade at that price...but, oh well...let me get them for you." Suitachi said, grabbing the trio of HP memories and a can of some sort of energy drink from a cooler in back. "Here you go. Three HP memories. Now. Pay up." he said un-necessarily as he tossed them at Enjolie's head and took the zenny from his bank account. "Come again." he said, chugging the entire can of energy drink.

Enjolie LOSES: 4500z
Enjolie GAINS: 60 HP (3 HP memories)
"S-Sure..." Enjolie muttered, a little taken aback by the shopkeeper's attitude.

She grabbed the upgrades and her card and walked out of the store so that she could upgrade her Navi.
After arriving at the shop, Marius reached his hands down at his pocket and had a handful of change. He neatly arranged them with three 50 Zenny and another three 10s at the counter. "Well...this is all the money that I have. Do you have any Signature Edits?"

Requested Upgrades

  • Level 15-19 Signature Edit [180[s]z[/s]]
Total: 180z
Suitachi looked over the change and sweeped it to the edge of the counter into his other hand before counting it over again.

"You kids... Can't make up your minds these days..." He muttered to himself as he went to retrieve a box from a nearby shelf.

"Here you go, and think carefully about what you want to do with it." He added.

Marius get: Process Edit x1
Marius lose: 180z
"Much appreciated."

Marius took the box and walked away, trying to catch the nearest ride to the airport.
Getting off from the metro, Shin arrived at SciLabs and immediately walked through the doors of Suitachi's fine establishment.

Laying 6000z on the counter, the self-proclaimed ace requested, "3 Process Upgrades please, this should be the right amount."

[Process Upgrades 19, 20, 21 = 6000z]
"So that's your... nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first upgrades so that's.. I... Umm.. Hm. Oh whatever, I'm sure it's right." Suitachi grumbled and swept the zenny into his register in a hurry.

Dropping a trio of boxes onto the counter, he nudged them towards Shin and went back to reading a magazine.

"Shoo." He added with a wave of his hand.

Shin get: Process Upgrade 19, 20, 21
Shin lose: 6000z
"Thanks," Shin said, grabbing the upgrades and installing them into his PET as he jumped through the air toward the Colosseum. In Netopia.
Mazer walked into the store at a brisk pace, since he was already on his way towards the colosseum for his next match. He approached the counter, and placed his zenny on the counter.

"Excuse me sir, I would like to purchase 4 process upgrades, and 1 HP Memory please"


Purchase: Process Upgrades 6, 7, 8, 9, and HP Mem 1 [Total=4400z]
"You seem a bit over, here," Suitachi remarked as he put 4000z into the register before magically producing Mazer's ordered upgrades in an instant and handing them over.

"Have a nice day," the shopkeep remarked, adjusting his glasses.

Mazer LOSE: 4000z
GET: Process Upgrades 6, 7, 8, 9, HP Memory 1.
"Thank you very much, sir."

Mazer retrieved his upgrades and proceeded out the door.
Chad walked into the labs and placed 1500z on the table.

"Process upgrade please. Level 15." He grunted out, clearly slightly agitated.
{LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE ARE NOW APPROACHING SCILAB STATION.}
{IF YOU ARE DEPARTING, PLEASE MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE FRONT OF THE TRAIN.}

As Alan stepped off the train, the first thing that caught his eye was an advertisement for the Navi Upgrade Shop.

That sounds like where I want to be. Looking at the virtual map, Alan had a long way to walk.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Are we there yet?! whined Meltdown from the PET.

You're complaining?! I'm the one who had to walk here! 10 blocks my ass!

Well, if you had've listened to me and taken that turn back there instead of following yourself, we WOULD'VE been there in 10 blocks...

Oh shut up, I'm not in the mood for your attitude! All you've had to do is sit there and be quiet, so DO IT!

As they turned the last corner, the Navi Upgrade Shop front window took up his focus. HP Memories. Speed Upgrades. Anything anybody would want for a navi. Alan had never had any need for these, as the demolition hardware had all the latest hardware and software, giving Meltdown all he needed. His PET, on the other hand, never needed upgrades, since it wasn't equipped for network travel. Now that it was, Alan finally had a use for the store.

Don't let him con you into spending more money than he's received. This needs to be a natural process to allow him to unlock more than his full potential. Alan had to remind himself. Okay, so I'm going to pick you up a HP Memory and two Process Upgrades, okay?

I don't care what you buy me, as long as it gives me more power while roaming!

Walking to the front door, Alan went through. Or at least tried to.

What? It's locked!

What do you mean, "it's locked"?! You mean to tell me they're CLOSED?!

They can't be! They're open 24 hours! Alan reassured himself. But sure enough, next to the door was a sign Alan had missed: [NETBATTLING, BACK SOON.]

Oh, well that's just great. Well, I'm not leaving until he gets back and gives us what we want. said Alan in a huff. I didn't come this far and waste half the day doing so to visit a closed shop.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Several hours passed, and Alan was still seated on the ground with his back against the store.

I've got another idea!

No.

How about we go back to the construction site, grab some heat tools, come back, smash the glass, burn the bars, take what we need, and run?

What?! That's burglary!

We can leave the money for what we take on the counter!

And the damages?

We'll pay for that too!... Well, you can pay for it.

I don't think so! I'm not financing another of your crazy schemes!

Well, we could always steal some new glass and metal for the repairs!

And who's going to reimburse that?

We'll create some glass! And we'll supply the metal from the scrap in our yard, we'll just have to refine it first!

You can't create glass! It has to be processed by special machinery!

Bull! Superheat sand and it turns to glass!

Okay, so let me get this straight: you wanna make glass from sand and refine some of our scrap metal, so you can steal some of both, so you can break into this store and buy what you want.

Yes!!!

With that, Alan hit the "Mute" button on his PET.
Suitachi watched as a person walked up in front of the shop, looking very shocked, and walking away. The shopkeeper didn't do anything about it and slowly prepared Chad's requested upgrade. "Sorry for the wait. Here's your Process Upgrade!". Taking the money into the register, he waved at his customer and shouted, "Come Again!"

Chad LOSES: 1500z
Chad GAINS:

  • Level 15 Process Upgrade
(((Was not aware this shop was still open. Thought this was the one that closed.)))

Hearing some movement in the store, Alan got up and looked inside. Sure enough, somebody was now at the counter, and the sign was gone.

Alan walked into the store and up to the counter. 1000z for a HP Memory, 100 zennys for first Process Upgrade, and 200 zennys for the second one... that's 1300 zennys.

Excuse me, could I please purchase 1 HP Memory and 2 Process Upgrades?
"Hm? Aren't you the kids from back then? Glad to see you back!" The shopkeeper openly greeted his customer and grabbed the upgrades from the nearest shelf. Setting down the HP memory and few Process Upgrade, Suitachi grabbed the money from Alan and smiled. "Come Again!"

Alan LOSES: 1300z
Alan GAINS:

    [li]Level 1 HP Memory
  • Level 1, 2 Process Upgrades
Chad took a moment to look at the upgrade lying before him before he realized that it was for him.

"Err, uh, thanks" He mumbled as he grabbed the upgrade and headed back to the tournament.
