Reanimated: The Round Table Chronicles 1

Shop Class 101

As Marshall stepped into the Mall, Sawyer examined his handy work. Were cotton and leather had been a graphic button up shirt stood, the 1671 year old pants were replaced by a pair of graphic jeans and the fur boots replaced by a pair of graphic tennis shoes.

"What can I say graphic's is thang" he said placing a graphic cap on Marshall's head

Marshall, Sawyer and the Doctors headed for the shopping center. Sawyer broke off and headed for the electronics department indicated by the huge sign hang from a vaulted ceiling.

"Marshall this is called a money card" explained Doctor Camilla holding a card out to him "It has one hundred thousand dollars for you to spend"

"Okay" he replied

"Oh we'll meet back here whenever your ready" said Doctor Malcolm

The Doctor's went to the grocery department again indicated by a sign hanging for the ceiling.

Marshall walked under the sign indicating the Men's Department. He methodically picked through the racks.

"Can I help you?" asked a voice

Marshall spun around a man stood feet away from Marshall.

"Um no I have no clue what I'm looking for" said Marshall

Suddenly Sawyer appeared.

"Hey I forgot you've only just reawakened" said Sawyer

The sales associate walked away and Sawyer and stepped in. As time passed Sawyer bought Marshall everything he wanted that is until he saw it.

"That's a car thingy right?" Marshall asked

"Yeah" replied Sawyer

"Why's it different from Malcolm and Camilla's?" Marshall asked

"Well because there are different models"

"I want it" said Marshall

"Alright come on" said Sawyer leading Marshall into the Transportation Department

In the future the DMV controls sales of any vehicles because cars got so expensive that people rallied to make them cheap. Now a car that goes for $12,000 now in the future costs $800- $1000 dollars U.S.

In 15 minutes Marshall stepped out a technologically advanced vampire.

"Congrats Marshall you passed Shop Class 101" said Sawyer slapping him on the back

BUZZ, BUZZ Marshall's P.E.N went off and he expertly logged in and tapped the Video Call button it was Doctor Camilla and Doctor Malcolm.

"Hey guys!" said Doctor Camilla

"Hey- we're at the DMV office and ready to go" said Sawyer

"Alright let's meet at the food court for lunch" said Doctor Malcolm

"Food what?" asked Marshall

"Follow me" said Sawyer leading Marshall to the escalators.

A few minutes later Sawyer and Marshall crested the top floor of the mall.

"Welcome to the food court!" said Sawyer

Marshall was amazed by all the choices that were available, everything from America to Zealand (New Zealand drops the New in 2030).

"Come on I see Doc Malcolm" said Sawyer

Suddenly time seemed to slow and then stop completely.

"Sawyer" said Marshall

"He can't hear you" said a voice

Marshall spun around trying to locate the voice.

"Marshall follow my voice...This is your first lesson vampires can locate a thought or a voice" said the voice

Marshall saw flash's of doors and hallways then he was there.

"My, my we are a quick learner" said a figure in a dark cloak, his back was turned towards Marshall

"Who are you?" asked Marshall

The figure turned around and through his head back as the hood fell off his face Marshall stepped back.

"Marshall...Marshall...MARSHALL!" Said Sawyer

"What?" said Marshall snapping back

"Sorry dude- what do you want to munch on?" said Sawyer

"I'm not hungry- can we go home?" asked Marshall
