Chapter Text
As you walked through Cyber City, the flashing neon lights completely captivated you. They practically made the streets glow, and the colors shone for as far as the eye could see. The predominately blue streets were bustling with darkners and business seemed to be booming.
You hugged your bag tight to your chest, not wanting your belongings to get swept up in the crowd. People pushed and shoved past you, knocking you left and right. So, you decided to take a shortcut through an alleyway, to avoid the crowd.
The streets faded and got a bit darker the further you went, though the light still shone a bit from the busy streets. As you began to walk past a large dumpster, you heard a muffled crying echo through the depressing streets.
Your head turned slowly, to lock eyes with a darkner, sitting alone beside the large dumpster. As he stood up, you noticed his short stature, and bright pink and yellow glasses. He sniffled a bit as he met your eyes.
You slowly approached him, getting down on your knees and asking in a sweet tone, “Are you alright, sir?”
The darkner nodded, his nose bobbing up and down comically.
“Then, if I may ask, why are you out here crying?” You asked innocently, genuinely concerned for the darkner’s wellbeing.
“All of my [[BIG SALES!! WILD PRIZES!!]] are gone..along with my [[KROMER]] ..” He sniffled again and looked down at his lap.
You reached out and patted his shoulder. “Well, can I help at all?” you said, not entirely understanding his issue, but wanting to help.
“DO YOU HAVE [[KROMER]]!? [[INSERT KROMER HERE]]”
“No,” you continued, not knowing what kromer was, “But I’m sure I could help you get some!”
The darkner looked up from his sad state and smiled.
“WHY THANK YOU [[NAME REDACTED]], YOU’VE MADE ME [[%50 PERCENT OFF SALES]]”
You smiled and helped him up.
He shook your hand, saying “WE’RE GOING TO MAKE SUCH GOOD PARTNERS!!”
