Go to Deli. Retrieve Meat.
Get the cheese from the Deli counter
Chryssalid and Angel both head to the Deli. Seeing as they are the only two there, they order their favourite meats and cheeses, to enjoy on future sandwiches. Anyone else who complains is just flat out of luck, obviously. As you two finish up and collect your packages, you hear a sinister crackling from behind you.
The bakery!
Willabella spots Kyle as he walks into the store and follows him to the bakery.
Ah, sliced bread. The best thing since, well, sliced bread! The two of you easily pick up a loaf, conveniently wrapped in a plastic bag for ease of use. Also so that Kyle can't sneakily gobble up a slice or two while no-one's looking. As the pair of you turn back, you see what seems like flying vegetables...
"Yo, where you supermarket bros keep the booze?"
Whilst distracting the attendant, steal all the free samples. Hey, they can't prosecute if they say it's free.
You easily distract the attendant while you steal all of the free samples. Which is to say that you shove them into your hoodie while the attendant looks on disinterestedly.
"Take as many as you want. It's not my money."Clair head to the free samples
You reach the free samples as Angelo is stuffing his pockets. Reacting quickly, you leap forward and snatch a tub full of pizza before Angelo can get his mitts on it.
L.E.A.H. heads to the Fresh Produce to get the lettuce.
As L.E.A.H. looks through the Fresh Produce section for some lettuce, she hears a sinister crackling from behind her. As she spins around to look, she spots a short, hooded figure, clad in brown robes and wielding a stick of celery.
"For too long have I been mocked, insulted and picked upon! But I shall not suffer this indignities any further! For you know why?"The little man barely gives L.E.A.H. time to react before continue his diatribe.
"For I am the mighty Kohl, Wielder of Arcane Mysteries, Delver of Ancients, Lord of Cabbages!"The reason for the last part soon becomes obvious as the vegetables around L.E.A.H. suddenly rise up, blazing with mystic energies as they rush at L.E.A.H. Great. MOTHER did say that there was a high chance of random encounters though...
Quest for the Calf Blood of Aisle 13.
You quickly find Aisle 13 at the end of the store, and enter it, looking for the calf blood. As you walk down the aisle, the light slowly dim. You quickly determine that you aren't having a stroke, and that in fact the lights are dimming in the entire store. Which is weird, since when you look up the lamps still seem to be shining brightly. The shelves also seem to be bleeding, but as far as you can tell it's not calf's blood so you continue onwards, only to be stopped by two giant spiders that burst out of the nearby shelves. Turning around to flee, you find your way blocked by what can only be described as the spirits of former spirits, floating inside ghostly booze bottles. You idly wonder whether you were the one who drank them as they move in to attack.
