"Dont underestimateskmeone jsut becuase of a warning." Nicote shrugs. "You xan wait just inside the doors. Also, i need the necklace." He hodls his hanf out. "A deal's a deal."

"Who aaid he wouldnt?" Nucote takes the necklaxe and walks riGJ t into the midle of the warehouse.

Almsot intantly he has to jump to the side as a metal pole falls down from above and clangs loudly on the floor. Luckily part of it catches on some beams or itd have started bouncing.

"Oye X, its just me. No need to kill me." Nic yells up at a hidden figure somewhere abkve.

"No it osnt. Whos the othwe guy?" An echoy soundign voice rpelies.

Nicote sighs. "Dont midn Sylva he insisted on tagging along. Now get down here i found somehting."

"You come up."

"I am not climbing that."

In response a paper cup is thrown at Nicote's head.

After more bantering, deal-making, and a few more junk items thrown down, whoever Nicote is talkign to comes down, but only to where there's a sort of midway area on an onld staircase. Nicote joins the person there. From his height and what little you can see of him, he seems to be rather young, yougner then you probably. He and Nicote exchange words for a while, with the boy taking the necklace, before Nicote finally turns back and walks to you. The boy, after some hesitation, follows, though most of his face is sheilded by a hoodie. In summer.


"We're heading back." Nicote tells you.

"For you, yeah. I've got a summer job I need to get to." Nicote says.

The hooded boy makes no comment but glares daggers at you

"We're takign the same way back." Nicote simply answers.

Soon you arrive at the back gate to the Marker property. Nicote unlocks the door and lets you and Mystery Hoodie Boy in before comign in himself. Once again he briskly leads you through the maze of paths to the original side gate.

"Hope you learned whatever you wanted to learn. Don't know why you wanted to come along though." Nicote grumbles as you exit.

The hoodie boy sticks his tougnue out.
