Shopping and an encounter

Ethan was looking at a list in his phone while Aoi was pushing a cart on his left. Velvet was on his right, looking at the people who had characters with them.

"I think we need more oregano sir." Aoi commented as she looks at what they have in the cart.

"Okay, Velvet could you fetch some? We'll be in the meat section." Ethan asked looking up from his phone.

Velvet nodded and made her way to where the oregano was.

"Velvet?" The bunny girl stopped and turned to see someone she never thought she would see here.

"Blake?" Velvet was surprised to see Blake who was dressed in a black body suit with a jacket and her hair was cut.

"Huh... Well looks like your from before... That sorry I was happy to see a familiar face." Blake gave a smile.

"Wow... Your from the future?" Velvet could tell this Blake was older then the one she knew.

"Yeah... Here with your master?" Blake asked as she looked at the shelves.

"Yeah, just here to get oregano... How long have you been... "

"A ****?" Blake asked with a raised eyebrow. "An entire year now ... Honestly it's not that bad... My master isn't mean, it's me and a few other cat girls, I don't like the whole Characters have no rights thing but we can't do anything about it." Blake sighed. "What about you?"

"... 2 weeks." Velvet answered, "My master is nice, he has other girls but makes time for me whenever he can."

"Sounds nice, you better get going, we can't stray for too long without permission." Blake took a pepper shaker from the shelf and walked away.

Velvet looked for the oregano and took a bag before running to the meat isle.
