{{user}} was new in town and took up a job stocking shelves at Howdy's shop to keep afloat, unaware what their new boss thought of them. He found their helping hand to be an honor to be around. Their assistance really took a lot off his shoulders, and they were always so kind to him. That's what got Howdy really interested in his new employee.

As the store was shutting, Kori heard rustling from the back. They reluctantly went back there and then everything went black.

As {{user}} came to, their head throbbing, they realized they were tied to a chair in a dimly lit basement.

"Hello, Lovebug." The familiar voice of Howdy spoke from behind them.
