King and Queen of Zaun (Jinx x male reader/Oc)

Chapter 4: One Way or Another

"Find anything good?" Wyatt asked Powder who was looking down in pipes for scraps or metal pieces. He would help but even though he's living in the undercity, he does still have some topside traits, one being that he hates looking or digging around in pipes or anything like that.

She looked back at him with a playful glare before taking out a hinge that looks like it has shark teeth on it. She went to put it in her pouch before feeling something in them, and pulls out the glowing blue balls from the apartment." Woah, you got them?" Wyatt asked as he came closer towards Powder looking at the jagged balls. "Yeah, they must be valuable. Do you think we should show Vi?" "Uh, yeah. Come on, let's see what she has to say." Wyatt said before heading towards the door inside, Powder following him while closing the door.

They headed down the stairs towards the room they were in earlier, and were about to open the door, but stopped when they heard the voice's of Vi and Mylo. "They are a problem." Mylo said as he was throwing a ball to the wall again and again. "Mylo I'm really not-" "Do you know what was in that bag? The biggest payout we've ever had and Powder just lost it! Not only she lost it but Wyatt scorched a witness." "They made a mistake," Vi said, trying to have Mylo see her side on things.

"Name one time she hasn't, and then Wyatt comes in with his unstable powers messing things up more." "They're young," "Don't bullshit me, you were twice the person at half their age."

For a moment, Wyatt thought that Vi would tell Mylo off, but then she said, " You know what, Mylo? Your right, there's a bunch of things Powder just can't do, but Wyatt's only protecting her." "You don't have to tell me twice, but Wyatt hardly lets anyone breathe when he's done with them." That was all they heard before Powder left with the crystals in hand. Wyatt reached out to her, before following her back upstairs, just not before glaring back the door.

However, if the two stayed longer, or if Powder stayed since of Wyatt's advanced hearing, they could here the rest of the conversation.

"Like complain about everything." Vi said, Mylo responding with a 'what?', but continued on talking. "And brag nonstop." "Okay, okay, I see where this is going." Mylo said, throwing the ball before Vi caught it. "Pick fights with the group when we need to focus." Mylo was just stuttering as Vi talked, "And tell strangers on the street that we got a nice haul." Mylo was now starting to get more nervous with Vi coming at him. "Both Powder and Wyatt are my problem, okay? Your problem is never knowing when to shut up, but you know what? I'm gonna help you with that." Vi said before pointing to her face. "You see this look on my face? This will always mean it's time to shut up!" Mylo looked at her face, before groaning and he saw Vi walking towards the door, but not before looking back at him.

"Oh and also, try and remember what we saw at that place, see my point on that." Vi said before heading out the door.

Back with Claggor and Vander, they headed over to a place called Benzos, a family friend. Vander walked with the bag up towards the door, but not before telling Claggor to make sure no one comes inside.

Vander heads inside the shop and looks over at the owner Benzo. "We're closed." Said Benzo but Vander was persistent. "We'll open up," he said, then Benzo looked at him. "For good. You can take your worthless junk elsewhere," Vander just sighed, " Just as well. Owners the shittiest businessman I know."

It was silent for a moment, until the two of them laughed a bit. It was something that wouldn't get old. "Ekko. What's going on with that thing?" Said Benzo as he looked over to a boy with white hair and dark skin, he looked to be trying to fix what was most likely a clock. "Give me a few seconds. The cannon pinions still busted." "Finish it later. Vander and I need a word." Said Benzo as he looked at Ekko. "But-" "Uh-uh. Off you go."
