"Wrong turn?" Sentenze suggested as he looked out of the fleshy room.

The fleshy room was floating slowly, in a dark void. Outside of their small sanctuary was nothing. Just empty black as far as the eye could see.

"Yeah, that doesn't really look right." Og'drimun agreed as he looked out of the room.

"Wait!" Narissa reached out as Og'drimun stuck his head out of the room.

The tiny demon's face stretched out like playdoh. It seemed like it was going to tear off of his neck, but Narissa pulled him back inside. Almost instantly, his head snapped back into its normal shape.

"Ugh, feels like I fell asleep while hanging upside down again," Og'drimun groaned.

"You of all people should know to be more careful," Narissa sighed. "We've slipped between everything thanks to how you destabilized this place."

Sentenza pulled the stub of his cigarillo out of his mouth and flicked it outside of the room.

It slowed down almost completely as it flew outside of the room. Then, it stretched out more and more. Long, then flat, then even more frayed. It seemed to unravel all at once into tiny pieces of fabric that then unraveled itself even further.

Narissa looked over at Sentenza and said, "Did you just..."

It was silent. But the space where the cigarillo had unraveled, there was a small explosion. All of the atoms seemed to have pulled apart at once, and when they ripped apart, they released all their energy at once.

It wasn't enough to cause any real damage, but it shook the fleshy room and sent it spinning off into the distance.

Narissa slammed her hand down on the wall, and it was like she had stepped on the brakes. The room skid to a stop almost immediately.

"Do you ever think things through before you act?" She scolded.

"We can hem and haw all day, or we can find answers." he replied with a shrug.

Lulu was sitting on the ground as she tenderly rubbed a bump on her head. "So, want to cut to the chase?"

Narissa looked down on her. "You think I'm just messing around here?"

"Of course not, your skill is apparent. Why, I don't think I've seen anyone pilot a room quite so well." She held her hand in front of her face and checked it for blood as she continued. "But, there's a big haul here. We briefly went over it before, but it's just the four of us, so why not let me in?"

Narissa glared towards Sentenza, but then immediately turned to glare at Og'drimun.

"Hey, what are you looking at me for?" he complained.

Narissa just narrowed her gaze.

Og'drimun pouted as he crossed his arms and turned his head to the side. "Humph. I don't know why it always has to be my fault."

Sentenza had pulled out his pistol, and was turning it over in his hand as he said, "I could have sworn I warned you about putting your nose into my business."

Lulu smiled. "Of course, I'm just offering my skills if it's needed. I'd never betray a sucke...client's trust in me."

"After all," Lulu continued. "Keeping a secret mission from someone while you try to complete it is so much work. It'd be way easier to just bring me in, and pay me, just a little bit, to ensure my silence."

Narissa sighed and shook her head as Sentenza spun the chamber of his revolver around. "A bullet between your eyes would buy your silence for next to nothing, wouldn't it."

Lulu shook her head as she shrugged. "Ah, but you're no fool. Why throw away such a useful ally when all it would take is a small portion of the pie to satisfy them. I don't need much after all."

"There will be plenty," Narissa suggested.

Sentenza glanced towards the witch and she immediately became silent, although she did roll her eyes.

"It sounds like a good deal to me," agreed Og'drimun.

"Ah, see. Your friend has a good head on his shoulders. Sees a deal when it's plainly laid out in front of him, as I'm sure you do too." Lulu nodded. "Why to pass up such a deal, you'd have to me mad!"

"Been called worse," Sentenza shrugged as he aimed the pistol at Lulu. "Besides, you cant exactly control when you can help us can you? I doubt your other self would honor any agreement we had."

"Ah, a shrewd buyer." Lulu nodded appreciatively. "Of course that's why there's such a big discount! Besides the obvious use you can make of her anyway, without true direction, I can understand your apprehension."

She cleared her throat. "But with such a great deal before you, can one teensy, tiny defect really dissuade you from possibly the greatest deal of your life?"

"Either kill her or hire her already," Narissa complained.

Sentena scratched his neck with his free hand as he grumbled under his breath. Finally, he slid his gun back into its holster.

"Flat rate. Two-hundred dollars worth of gold. And you do what I say, when I say. No questions asked, just following my orders." Sentenza suggested. "If you go against me, or I even think you will. I'll kill you."

Lulu smiled greedily. "Why, two-hundred? No no, I'm not so greedy. A simple five percent of what your big haul is would be enough for me."

Sentenza narrowed his eyes. "Two-hundred."

"Well, it's not much of a barter if we don't compromise at all? You could've at least gone down to one-hundred and ninety since I put in such an obviously low offer."

Sentenza shook his head as he scratched his neck again. "You're a lot of trouble aren't you?"

"Trouble? Me? Never. I just have a sense for value, and have a good idea of just how much more one percent would get me over what you offered." Lulu explained.

"I'm offering guaranteed money. Not just if the job goes well." Sentenza added.

"Just give her the five percent or whatever," Narissa complained. "Not like it matters all that much anyway. Money is only as good as what you can buy, and we aren't really doing much business out here, are we?"

Lulu smiled as Sentenza briefly glanced over at Narissa.

"One percent," Sentenza offered.

"Five."

"One."

"Four plus the guaranteed two-hundred."

"Two."

"Four plus I get to shoot your gun a few times."

"...three."

"Three." Lulu agreed with a smile as she held out her hand. "Shake on it?"

Sentenza firmly gripper her hand and shook it. "Hold your own, or I won't hesitate to kill you."

"Yeah, I know You mentioned it a few times," Lulu said as she rolled her eyes. "But just wait. You'll see just how valuable of a purchase you just made. I guarantee you won't regret it."

"I better not, because otherwise..."

"You'll shoot me. Yeah, I know."
