@Mr_pinkShadow looked up at the young man who walked over and set two books and a card down on the table. She smiled at him gently and set down Moon, who began butting her head against Shadow's hand. The guy looked slightly nervous. It was curious, the characters that came into the library, but Shadow never pried. Instead, she scanned the cards and the books, pulling in the one that he said he was returning and handing him the book he was checking out and his library card.
"Have a nice day," she said sweetly. Her sweatshirt pulled up slightly as she handed him the book and she gasped a little bit, shoving the sleeve back down. Her glow had gotten brighter. She flushed a dark pink and set the book and card down on the desk for him to pick up. Luckily for her, right then another customer came up and asked for a specific kind of book. She nodded with relief, stating, "We do have that in stock, but it is in the basement, so I will have to go down and get it." The customer nodded, stating that she was in no hurry.
Moving quickly to get down there, she hurried into the office, heading toward the basement door. The old wooden thing creaked as she pushed it open and began walking down the many steps to get to the basement. Unfortunately, the woman had asked for a book on Alchemy, so it would be in the very back, almost against the back wall. Her feet hit the solid cement floor floor and she looked around. It was pitch black down there. She took a deep breath and looked behind her, making sure that there was no one there. There is a specific reason as to why there are no lights in the basement. There was almost no need to come down there every day, so they figured they didn't need lights.
Also, they had Shadow. Shadow held out her hand, palm up, and suddenly a bright yellow orb appeared in her hand. She smiled at the beauty of the light and she tossed it up into the air. It sailed up and bump against the ceiling, but filled the room with a bright yellow light as it did so. She grinned again and headed toward the back. Unfortunately, the little orb did not give off much light, so she created a beam with her hand, guiding her way to the back. She found the book with ease and with a snap of her fingers, both lights were gone and she made her way back up from the basement.
She walked over to the woman and handed her her book. The woman checked it out before hurrying off. Man, people just seemed to be in a hurry today. She waited at the desk for the next customer, whoever it may be.
