Vander ended up taking in two more orphans. They go by the names of Mylo and Claggor. The five got along extremely well.

-It's about a year after the saving of Lilith, and Lilith and Powder and sitting in the den playing tea party, obviously Powders idea, Powder makes some cooing noises while she glides a piece of rusted metal with crayon markings all over it in the air.

Powder giggles as she asks to clank her chipped tea cup with Lilith. The both giggle when Mylo slams open the door.

"Guys get up we're going to the upper-city" Mylo says eagerly. They stand up and as Powder is about to try to leave, Mylo stops her and says, "Uh no, ur like 5-you're staying here."

"Are you serious!" Powder whines. "I never get to go! Please just this once!" Lilith kneels down to Powder and pats her on the head. "Powder, I don't want you getting hurt, while i'm gone, i'm gonna pick you up a brand knew toy, okay? Then we can play whatever you want. I'll even try to Convince Violet."
Powder nods and they all leave.

As Lilith was exiting the room Violet was leaning on the door and she was smirking. "You're good with kids, it's kinda cute." Violet says while obviously picking on Lilith. "Oh shut up, you're going to be playing with us when we get back."

They all sneak out of The Last Drop and begin to walk through the lanes. Claggor and Mylo are in the front messing around and probably stealing from sideline vendors.

"So, Violet, I've been meaning to show you, I got you new arm wraps, I noticed yours were all, y'know, bloody." Lilith says somewhat awkwardly.

"Oh dude thank you, I needed these!" Violet says while applying them to her arms. "Here-dude-you-okay let me put them on you're struggling." Lilith says while applying them to her arms.

The entire time Lilith was doing it, Violet kept looking at Lilith in awe. "Andd- done! Looks so much better." Lilith smiles at Violet. "I love them, thank you." Violet says as they arrive at their destination.

"Uh guys, there's like enforcers everywhere." Claggor exclaims in fear.

"Chill out dude, good thing Powder isn't here to screw it up." Mylo says. "Not funny Mylo. Put a Cork in it." Violet says.

They climb up into a house away from all the enforcers, and they go into a house that seems as if the owners went on vacation.

"What idiots leave their window unlocked?" Lilith laughs as swinging herself from the railing into the house.

Mylo almost immediately goes to the pantry. "Aw man they have cookies!" Mylo says while stocking his arms with cookies and chugging milk from the carton.

"Dude that's nasty." Violet says with a disgusted look on her face. "Guys come over here!" Lilith says while on the couch waving her hand towards her, signaling for everyone to join her, "We should give each other nicknames!!" Lilith exclaims with excitement.

"Okay you first Mylo." Mylo looks up with what seems to be five cookies in his mouth. "You're making a mess dude." Claggor says. Mylo swallows and says "I got one for Claggor-four eyes!" Mylo says almost causing him to choke.

"I have one for you Violet, what do you think about..hmm, Vi?" Lilith says while opening her eyes for agreement from Violet.

"Wow I love it!" Vi says. "Aw really?" Lilith says happy with the praise she got from Vi. "Maybe I could call you Lilly?" Vi says to Lilith. "Go for it dude I think it sounds sick!" They go silent content with their new nicknames.

Mylos head goes back and fourth between the two. "Eewughh get a room." Mylo gags. "I would but then you'd be lonely."Vi playfully shoves Mylo.

"Oh you'll pay for that." Vi starts running and Mylo chases after her. Claggor and Lilith exchange nods and then run with them out of the house. Mylo tagged Claggor and they all started running through the shadows of Piltover trying not to be seen by Enforcers.

They eventually get back the The Last Drop. We try to sneak past Vander, since we are well past Curfew, when Mylo lets out the loudest burp anyone has every heard.

The bar when silent. "Shit." Vi said under her breath. She makes eye contact with Vander, then puts her head down. Lilith grabs her hand and guides her downstairs.

Everyone is talking about what to say to Vander when he comes in to lecture. Vander opens the door with a disappointed look on his face. His entrance cuts off the whispers. "Everyone out." Vander says. Everyone begins to leave, but he stops Vi. "Vander, come on it's not her fault you can't keep pinning it on he-" Lilith gets cut off. Vanders eyes sternly look down on her. Cueing her out of the room. She sighs and exits the room.

Vander sits down and lights his pipe. "You-you can't keep doing this Vi." Vander says. "Vander, we didn't get hurt! We were simply just having fun. What, you have something against fun now?" Vi says looking him dead in the eye.

"I can't argue about this. One of these days you're going to get yourself, or one of them in trouble Vi." Vi looks at the ground. "Your grounded." Vander says, although it sounds wrong. "What? Grounded? Vander we didn't even do anything wrong!" Vi yells. Vander stands up and exits.

Vi just stands there utterly defeated. Lilith walks in, right after Vander leaves. She sits right next to Vi, leaving no room between them.

"Are you okay?" Lilith asks Vi in concern for her feelings. "I understand where he's coming from-" Vi lays back against the couch. "-But I wish he'd just understand where we are all coming from. We're kids, not perfect robots." Lilith leans in and tilts her head. "You look so cute when you're mad." Vi chuckles nervously. Her face went pink.

"Is, you're heart racing Vi?" Lilith says with a smile. Lilith stands up and leans in close to Vi, "I'm going to bed, sweet dreams Violet." Flustered, Vi stood up, and spoke, "You as well, Lillypad." And Lilith left to go get Powder ready for bed.
