growing up on the streets is hard. but growing up on the streets alone in Ramshackle is much worse. But a young lady by the name of Lorelei plans on making it better by opening "The Scrap House"
join her and her new friends as they go on crazy adve...
The next morning, Lorelai pulled Skipp and Vinnie through the portal Xander made for them. Vinnie and Skipp immediately put on their concealment stones, making them appear like they were demons as they left the alleyway
"Where are we?" Skipp asked, his orange puppy-like ears tilting a little as he looked at their current location.
"Is it? And it's all thanks to a old family friend" Lorelai told her before they walked through the market.
Standing at on of the many booths, the Cannibal overlord himself stood there talking to someone in the front of the line.
"Well, who hasn't thought about eating their first partner? I certainly would have if my husband didn't taste so bad! Ha! I tell you what, you bring them to me and I'll straighten them out, okay dearie?" He said before he noticed Lorelai.
"Oh my stars! Do my dead eyes deceive me? Lorelai?" He asked as he peaked through the crowd as she smiled and waved at him.
"Lorelai! Where have you been??? These darkened corners really lost some of their sparkle without your lively presence!" He said as he made his way through the crowd to give her a hug before he saw Vinnie and Skipp.
"Oh! Who's this you brought with ya? Come on, Lorelai. Introduce us, why don't you?" He said.
"Of course. Vinnie, Skipp, this is Quintin. The most daring, delightful, and dangerous overlord on this side of the pentagram" Lorelai smirked.
"Oh! Always a charmer!" Quintin laughed.
"And Quintin, it's my pleasure to introduce you to my human friends Skipp and Vinnie" she said, pushing the two of them up a little.
"How do you do?" Skipp greeted nervously with a wave.
"Well, well! Isn't this a surprise! Can I offer you two something to eat? I have some nice pinkie fingers if you like" he offered.
"Uh....no" Vinnie said politely.
"No. Thank you, though" Skipp added, smiling and nodding a little.
"Oh, look at you! So polite! People around here could learn a thing or two" he said, patting their heads a little bit.
Quintin then remembered something and patted Lorelai's shoulder.
"Ya know, Lorelai. I got a premo-connect on a guy with about 8 blocks of territory but not enough goons to run it. Prime pickings for a deal to be made, my friend" he told her.
She only smiled up at him.
"I appreciate the offer, but we're here to get a few things."
He smiled before he grabbed something from his booth and handed it to her.
"Well, here's a little something to help you along" he told her with a wink.
Lorelai smiled as she held the leather backpack in her hands.

"Thank you! It's beautiful" she told him, admiring the stitch work before putting it on her back.
And with that, the small group went around the market, collecting books, weapons, and other supplies they needed.

Once they got back to Ramshackle, Lorelai saw Stone dealing with a few little kids. She giggled before they ran away from him, allowing her to walk over to him and kiss his cheek.
"Looks like you had a busy day" she said playfully.
He rolled his eyes before he grabbed a cigarette and lit it. Then Lorelai remembered something.
"Oh! I almost forgot! I got you a souvenir from the cannibal market" she said with a smile before she showed him a keychain that had a bat or mouse skull attached.
