The slums are a rundown, old heap of a town tucked deep in the jungles, with townsfolk consisting mostly of poachers, black marketeers, thieves, and fugitives. While the ideal tourist spot, some travel to the Slums to make use of the black markets. (+2 Defense, +2 Speed)

"Well, from what I remember, today's the... Er... Owner of the house's 'Beer Day'.  Even if he's inside, nothing bad will happen to Splatter.  Just to prove Splatter dosen't work for the man or anything, I'm having him... you know... decorate the house a little." Jack thought for a minute, then ran up to Splatter and whispered, "If you get the chance, I kinda need an item in the house.  It's red and stripy, you know, rectangular,  with a green bow...  You'll know it when you see it.  Oh, and careful not to ruff it up.  It's... uh... special."
With a satisfied grin, Jack trotted back on over to Boaa.  "Don't worry.  Just needed to tell him something."

I think back to the time when my search first began,
I left behind those shores of sand
For the endless everlasting world out there.

I know that with this burning passion driving me
Someday, somewhere I'll finally see
The light I have searched for everywhere!

As Splatter climbed through the window, he saw the box almost immediately.  You couldn't really miss it, considering that it was the only thing in the house that wasn't covered in beer caps, cigarettes, and other trash.  Splatter lifted up his shirt which revealed a belt of graffiti cans.  "Hmm, which colors to use here?" he grumbled.  Splatter got a blue, green, black, yellow can off his belt.  He looked around for a few cans of unopened soda, then taped the bottles on to them.  He then took the cans of soda and shook them really hard.  "That should do it," he said softly.  He let go off the cans all at once, grabbed the box, and jumped out the window.  Then, as fast as he could, he ran back to Jack with the box in his arms.  "Here you are," Splatter said.


If you knew knew what the bluebirds sang at you
You would never sing along
Cast them out cause this is our culture
These new flocks are nothing but vultures

Because they took our love and they filled it up
Filled it up with Novocaine and now Im just numb
And don't mind me, Im just a son of a gun
So dont stop, dont stop until your heart goes numb
I dont feel a thing for you

Without speaking, Jack smiled and did one of those up-nodding things, taking the box from Splatter.  He held it under one arm, then with the free hand reached into an inside pocket and pulled out a gun.  "Oops.  Not that," he said, putting it back.  He fumbled around a little more, then pulled out a piece of folded cloth.  At first, it seemed small enough to be a scrap of something, then, as he unfolded it, it came to resemble a leather bag.  With care, he slipped the box inside and slung the bag over his shoulder.  "Well, are we going to find a Snickyor not?  Let's go."

"You bet we are.  Let's start," replied Splatter.  He couldn't wait to get going, so he almost started, but then remembered about Boaa.  "Oh wait, we have to think about Boaa, and if she would still like to come." he realized.  "Hey, so do you still want to come with us?" he asked her curiously.

вода's mouth widened into huge grin as she excitidly nodded, "'Course silly!  Would I stick around if I wasn't?" , she asked, rhetorically.  Then she looked around awkwardly, "Where do we go first?" , she asked.  She had never been on any kind of hunt and hoped that these two had some experience.   She hated travelling alone and these two seemed like the perfect kind of company that she could talk on and on to.  She slightly tilted her head as she heard the faint sound of hissing.  Realizing it had come from the run down apartment Splatter had just exited she turned to him, "Ummm... Actually, I would really rather that we go soon" , she giggled happily, feeling the adreniline of a new adventure pumping through her veins.

You always seemed so sure
That one day we'd be fighting a suburban war
your part of town against mine
I saw you standing on the opposite shore
But by the time the first bombs fell
We were already bored

We were already, already bored
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling

"Yah... good idea.  Let's go... follow me, and hurry!"  
As he said this, yelling could be heard from one end of the street.  They heard a loud 'BOOM' and looked back to see paint splattered windows.  Jack smiled and said,"Nice touch.  Too bad it makes noise... oh crap!". The men at the end of the street started running tward them, obviously upset.  Jack hurriedly grabbed Boaa and Splarrer and pulled them down an alley way, were the three of them crouched behind a large dumpster until the men passed.  It was dirty and gross where they hid, and a foul smell came from the dumpser.  They could hear the occasional rattagean scutter by, when they finally found it safe to emerge from their hiding spot.  He looked to make sure the men were gone, then asked Boaa and Splatter if they were alright.

"Yeah, I'm good.  But I do agree that maybe I should have used something more silent for that job.  Sorry about that.  Whats that... smell?"  He scrunched up his nose, trying to prevent smelling whatever it was that was in the dumpster.  Knowing the Slums, it could be Joe.  But probably not.  "Anyway, are you okay, Boaa?"  He couldn't bear to know that he had hurt Boa, and he waited anxiously for her reply...

The dumpster was a mess and, as mentionned above, rather smelly. If this came as a surprise clearly those that found the look and smell strange had not been around many dumpsters. If one looked closely at the dented and rusty metal one would see what appeared to be a slime trail.
Looking even closer (or, better yet touching) it was clear that the trail, although clearly belonging to a snicky, was dried and very old. The snicky that had made the trail had long since moved on.

Jack bent down and felt the trail.  "Sorry.  The trail's dry.  Looks like we didn't find a Snicky after all."  It was true, he was dissapointed himself, but all of a sudden, something happened to lighten his mood- mostly.  
SCREECH!!!

A loud, piercing noise came from Jack's bag.  It sounded like a hundred year old machinery that hadn't been used since it was made was just turned on.  The bag was ripped open from the inside by sharp metallic claws, and in front of them was...  a Velix?  It didn't look quite normal, actually, it was completely different in color, and te only fleshy part of it were it's... Orange eyes.  Jack was expecting it to attack, bit all of a sudden, it's hand retracted and came back out as a brush.  The other one turned into a dustpan, and the poor thing started sweeping up the shreds of cloth.  Out of no where, roaring laughter came from Jack, and he stooped over to pick up the little robot.  It struggled, but then climbed on top of it's head, where it nestled down and started to comb his hair.
"Ow...  Be gentle." he complained every time the Velix pulled on a knot.
"Kkkkrrrrk!" it would protest, slapping his hand with it's free claw every time he reached up.  
"Come on, guys... It's not funny!" he said, reffering to the snickers coming from the two.  He sighed, continuing to put up with te torture this robot enforced.

"Hey, it is to funny, well sorta.  I mean, look at the little guy, he's so cute!"  Splatter said to Jack as he tried to stop laughing at what the little robot was doing.  "So what are we going to do about, um, him?  Or on second thought, what is his name even?"  As he said this, he noticed how much he was getting bored of just walking around the slums.  "Hey guys, I'm going to leave.  I'm not feeling to good, and I'm getting bored.  Good luck though.  Sorry, I'll miss you."  Splatter said that last part mostly to Boaa as he walked away...

(Sorry guys, but I didn't want to drop off but I want to focus on my other two rp's so, yeah.)

"Kkkrrrrk!" the little robot said to Splatter.  
"Well, since that's pretty much all I think it can say, I guess I'll call it Kirk.  Though, it dosen't seem like a guy.  A girl Kirk?  I guess that'll work...  Anyway, see ya, dude.  Maybe we can, er... Have a drink sometime.  See ya around," Jack said.  It was fun, an he felt like he had made a new friend.  "Krrrrrrk...  Keeeerrrrrrk? K k k k??  Krrrrk," the little robot said in satisfaction to her(?) new name, as well as saying goodbye to Splatter, waving it's claw as he walked away.  
"Yah, I guess I- we, should be getting back to te Valley ourselves.  Are you going to be okay by yourself, Boaa?" Jack asked Boaa, not really wanting to leave her alone in this dark place.

Yeah, this sucked hard core but вода wasn't a totally helpless female.  Dissapointed she looked at the ground, sighing.  Then as if someone had flicked a light on within herself she looked up a smile on her face.  "It was really nice meeting you two... erm.. now three.  Jack,I hope you have a good travel home with your new friend.  And by the way, good luck with the girl" , вода said, giggleing about the mention of the girl.  Of course she knew that Jack was interested in someone, that was just something she was an expert on.  Then turning to Splatter, "It was nice meeting you too Spatter" , she said blushing.  Maybe she would see him another time..just maybe.  Turning on her heels she strided out of the ally but not before giving a last cheerful wave to the new friends she had made.  And with confidence, she walked on.

Jack smiled, knowing that Boaa would be alright.  Saying their goodbyes, Jack walked off with Kirk still nestled snugly on his head, perfectly content with what she was doing.  Jack sighed.  "Well, you crazy neat freak robot, we'd better get back to the Valley, and get Meggan's yelling overwith.  Maybe she'll be nicer now that I got the box back," he said.
"KRRRRRRRK!!!" Kirk clicked, fixing his mistake.
"Right.  Robot.  Annoying little robot back," he said, laughing.  So togather, the odd pair stalked of into an alleyway, ready to go home.
