Em approached a large neon sign reading 'Sall's General Store' It blinked on, and off trying to catch the attention of anyone that may happen to be walking by. She drew her gaze away from the sign, and walked into the store. She causally walked through the store looking at all the products. All the rows appeared to have the same two things. It was either food, or drinks. They didn't really interest Em. She did find food to taste good, but she didn't need it, and saw no use in spending the little earth money she had on something she didn't need.
After walking through almost all the rows she finally came across one that was different. This row had been labeled 'Games'. She walked around it entranced by the many objects. She picked up a bouncy ball, and through it at the ground. She felt exetreme delight when it returned to her. She eventually put it down, and moved on to a few boxes that had the word Puzzle on them. She looked around the boxes, and was able to figure out that they must be chopped up pictures that can be put back together. "Seems useless to chop up a perfectly good picture, but also enchanting...... I must have it." She picked up one that would form the picture of a pig. She skipped in delight to the cashier, and handed them the box. She quickly paid for it, and dashed out the store. In seconds she had reached the board walk hanging off the beach. She sat down, and began her puzzle happily.
"So this goes here, and that there.... Hmm where do you go Mr.Puzzle Piece?" She mumbled every now, and then as she completed the puzzle. After a few minutes she had nearly completed it. "One more piece!" She shouted excitedly. She reached inside the box, and felt around. There were no more in it. "No!" She yelled as she stood up, and frantically searched for the missing piece.
