Ellie Makes a Deal [Story Time] (Patreon)

While scavenging for supplies you find a major score in a mini-mart.  The overgrown grass and vines had almost completely hidden it away from prospective looters.  You spend a couple of hours going through and collecting everything, which, much to your surprise is still in date.  This has got to be the biggest find in months.

Right when you're about to leave, you wear a rusting in the vines, near the opening you made.  You grab your weapon and point it towards the opening.  That's when you see a young woman cursing up a storm as she stumbles through and finally falls into the store.  She stands and her eyes go wide when she notices your haul.  You tighten the grip on your weapon and her eyes narrow as she shifts her focus to it.  She then looks you up and down and her expression turns into a smirk as she says: "Hold on! Chill out a little.  I can see you've put in a considerable amount of work here, but I can't leave empty-handed either.  I'm sure, however, that we can, work something out."
