[Guardian]: Who the hell is that?

[Guardian]: You know what, never mind. Can you please tell me why you're contacting me?

[S.L.]: Well, that's if you're going to tell me about the call you just had. Are you?

[Guardian]: How do you know about that?

[S.L.]: Really? You're asking me how I would know that you were contacting the Vault Hunters, when I was not only there in the same bus as them but I had also been the one to teach you how to hack. So I ask again, really?

[Guardian]: …Sorry, I… I had forgotten about all that

[S.L.]: That's ok, but can you tell me why you are doing this?

[Guardian]: I… I… I can't say, sorry

[S.L.]: Ok, well just promise me that you won't get them killed

"Hey guys," Ichigo called out to the Vault Hunters. "I'm gonna go get some information about the area and the people. Mikasa? Can you stay with them?"

"Yeah."

"Thanks, and you all be safe now, alright?" With that Ichigo walked away.

"Does he usually decide to just walk away?" Mordecai asked Mikasa.

"Yeah… he does that sometimes… no, he does it all the time." Mikasa said. After a moment, she suddenly let out a small chuckle, surprising the others. They looked at her with confusion.

"What is it?" Roland asked.

Mikasa raised her hand and pointed. They followed her finger and saw that Chad was looking around in confusion.

"He left Chad." She simply stated with a small humorous smile on her face.

On another part of Pandora, this area called the Dust, resided the mechanic Ellie. She was currently having an argument with her mother, Moxxi.

"Ah don't care that ah'm a big woman Moxxi, I don't need ta be all slim like most of ya'll women who believe skinny is better." She told Moxxi, who had an annoyed look on her face.

"Sugar, you need to understand that it is not healthy being as big as you are. Really all you need to do is lose a couple of pounds and put some make up on your face to pretty you up and you'll have all the men you want." She told her daughter, thinking that she would agree with her.

"And I told ya that I don't want to change. I like the way ah am and have no plans to change that. Now if you are done, leave now." Ellie told her move, pointing to the fast travel station that was just outside of her shop.

Moxxi let out a groan of frustration, turned and stomped angrily towards the station, but was stopped as a voice called out to her.

"I wouldn't use that thing if I were you. It's dangerous."

Moxxi and Ellie turned towards the entrance where the voice was coming from and saw a man that they hadn't seen before.

Before they could ask anything, Moxxi's ECHO device went off. She picked it up and answered.

"Yes Sugar? Moxxi speaking.

Moxxi, my love. So good of you to finally answer my call. Moxxi was expecting many people to call her. Her workers at the Underdome, Scooter, the workers repairing her bar and even some of her old lovers, hoping to get back with her, but she was not expecting her third husband, Marcus to call.

"What do you want Marcus?" she asked with hostility in her voice.

Are you still angry about the divorce love? He asked with humour in his voice

"You left me, remember?" she said in an angry tone of voice.

"Pa! is zat you?" Ellie asked.

My little pumpkin! How are you?

"Ah'm doin' good Pa. what're ya callin' Moxxi for?" she asked her father.

Ah that's right! Moxxi, I need you to listen out for information on someone for me. He told his ex-wife.

"And why should I do that?" she asked back.

Well… if you don't want certain things to end up on the ECHOnet, you'll do this for me. He told her.

A nervous sweat began to slightly cover Moxxi's makeup covered forehead.

'He wouldn't dare. He told me that he deleted it. He did delete it, didn't he?' she thought worriedly.

"Fine!" she exclaimed before continuing, "What do you need?"

As I said. I just need you to keep an ear out for information about a certain person.

"And what does this person look like?" she asked.

Well… he's wearing black and white clothes, wooden sandals, a coat, wears a bucket hat on his head and he has orange hair. As Marcus described the man he wanted Moxxi to gather information on, she and Ellie noticed that the man that was with them was now kneeling in front of the fast travel station, with a toolbox open next to him.

Upon closer inspection, both noticed that he fit Marcus' description perfectly.

So… will you keep an ear out for me? Marcus asked impatiently.

"Yeah, sure… whatever you say." She spoke absent-mindedly. She hung up before Marcus could say anything else and walked over to the stranger, tapping him on the shoulder to get his attention.

"Excuse me Sugar, but what are you doing?" she asked him.

The man stood up, taking his hat off of his head, he wiped his arm across his forehead, getting rid of the sweat building up there.

He spoke with a kind smile gracing his face.

"I'm just fixing this fast travel station, sexy." He told her.

"The name's Moxxi, not sexy." She told him.

"And mine isn't Sugar. It's Ichigo. Ichigo Kurosaki." Ichigo told her, holding his hand out for a friendly shake.

Moxxi shook his hand with her usual fake smile that she used on anyone that she wasn't close with. Ellie walked over to the two, gaining Ichigo's attention.

"And who is this lovely lady?" he asked taking her hand and kissing the back of it.

"Well ain't you a gentleman." Ellie said with a giggle.

A surprised look overcame Ichigo's face as he quickly smacked his palm into his face.

"I am an idiot." He told them. "I forgot to do this."

He quickly grabbed Moxxi's hand, gentle yet firmly and brought the back of it to his lips.

"Charmed to meet you." He told her.

If it wasn't for the heavy make-up on her face, he would have seen the blush that lit up Moxxi's face.

"Anyway, back to what I was doing. I was fixing the Fast Travel Station and hopefully the other ones on Pandora."

"Ah wasn' aware tha' the stations were damaged." Ellie told him.

"Oh! They're not damaged." He replied.

"Then why are you 'fixing them' then?" Ellie asked with quotation marks.

Ichigo looked contemplative for a moment before responding.

"Well the technology used to transport someone is advanced. The stations themselves were made quite shoddy, so I thought about fixing them in a sense. I would rather people travel without missing a body part on arrival." He told them with a little smile playing on his lips.

Moxxi had a bead of sweat run down her neck at the thought that she could easily have lost body parts when she travelled.

"Well then, I guess I owe you a thank you, don't I?" she asked the man.

"How 'bout dinner instead?" Ichigo asked her back.

"Hmm… well Sugar, you got yourself a deal." She held out her hand for a handshake, but instead he brought her hand to his lips and left a light kiss there.

"Well, how about we meet up here about four hours?" he asked her.

"Sure, that sounds nice." And with that she used the 'fixed' travel station and left her daughters shop.

"Your mother has a nice ass." He told Ellie, who looked surprised.

"How'd ya know that Moxxi was me mother?" she asked in confusion.

He gave her a smirk. "Because you both have the same beauty."

"Oh, ya'll jus' tryin' ta make me blush." She told him with a wave of the hand.

"You wouldn't happen to know more about her would you?" he asked her.

"Well… Moxxi is commonly known as Mad Moxxi and she's a swf looking 4 str."

"A what now?"

"A single white female looking for short-term relationship." She explained.

"…short-term just won't do." He spoke under his breath.

"Pardon?"

"I don't think that a short-term relationship will do." He told her.

"Moxxi's in her late fifties and has had three husbands already and four children, two of which are dead and the other two are in their thirties. That guy ya heard on her ECHO was me pops, Marcus. Me brother's pa is that inbred piece o' shit, Jimbo. She didn' want ta be married ta him but they musta slipped somethin' in her drink, cause a week later they found out she was pregnant wit' me brother."

"Really!? I met that guy on a bus and for a woman of almost sixty years of age, she looks mighty fine. Anything else?"

"We used to be a part of the Hodunk clan, who run the speedway over them sand dunes, but Ma took me an' Scooter out of there when they decided I was to be the clan wife."

"Want me to kill them?" Ichigo asked casually.

"Nah, ahma come up wit' a plan of me own." She told him

"Okay… I better get going. There's something I've got to do before my date later." He told her as he started walking out the front of her shop.

"Good luck out there… oh Mister?" she called out, getting Ichigo's attention.

"Yes?"

"If ya break me Ma's heart…" she trailed off as she pulled the switch of her vehicle crusher, "I'll put yer ball in here wit' them still attached."

She watched as Ichigo's face went ghost white as the machine crushed three vehicles piled on top of each other without any strain at all.

"Will do!" he called out quickly and ran away.

After he got out of her sight, Ichigo lowered his hands and covered his family jewels and swore to himself not to piss the big woman off.

"Time to get going." He spoke to himself before disappearing with just a whoosh of the wind to tell anyone that he had been there.

The Vault Hunters and Mikasa returned to Dr Zed to turn in the mission he had given them. It was just a simple job of killing five Skags, but before that could happen, Nine-Toes' men had shown up and damaged Claptrap. They killed the men quickly without Mikasa's help, then after a call from Angel, they fixed the tiny robot and then proceeded to kill a nest of Skags.

The no longer licensed doctor looked up at them and they could tell that he was smiling even though he was wearing a mask. He handed them the cash, which they split up and they noticed that at the bottom of their vision, the Exp bar slid past the halfway point.

"I guess those Skags didn't give you much trouble, eh? You clearly know how to handle a gun. That's good, real good. You're gonna need it, 'cause I've got somethin' else for you to help me with."

"What've you got?" Lilith asked, placing a hand on her hip.

"I need one or two of you to obtain a power coupling, repair the med vendor, and buy a shield." He told them.

The Hunters looked between themselves, trying to figure out who would be best to do the job. Mikasa coughed, getting their attention.

"To make things easier, since I have control of Ichigo's money, I'll pay the members of your group that don't do the job the same amount as the others get. I don't know if you have knowledge of this but Ichigo helped work on the ECHO device, mainly on the experience point system. If Claptrap didn't explain it clearly, each time you level up, the ECHO releases a certain kind of pulse that stimulates everything in your body, strengthening and enhancing it a small bit. To keep it from killing you, there is a max level of 69."

It was expected that one of the guys would have laughed at that, but Mikasa was surprised that it was Lilith who laughed.

"Ha, sixty-nine." The others looked at her. "What?"

"Anyway, it doesn't matter who goes on what job, you'll get paid either way, but if you all would hand me your ECHO devices, I can upgrade them to be connected to each other." She told them, holding her hand out.

They each unhooked their devices from their pants and placed them in Mikasa's hand, only to watch as each one disappeared into data.

"What did you just do?" Roland asked with a serious expression on his face.

"I just sent them to Ichigo, as I don't have the tools with me right now." She told him before gesturing to Chad. "Brick, can you stay and play with the Skag?"

Brick gained a happy expression on his face.

"Hell yeah!" he then moved to the Skag.

Following the big guy with her eyes, Mikasa turned back to the others, pointing at Lilith and Roland.

"You two can do the job while I repair Mordecai's rifle. It got slightly damaged, so I'll send Ichigo a message asking for some repair tools."

Lilith nodded grabbing Roland's arm and dragging him with her out of the small town.

"Come on muscles, let's go get us a power coupling." She said happily.

"UH… sure." He responded.

Mikasa pulled out her phone and sent her boss a message. Putting the phone away, she turned towards Mordecai and nodded her head towards a couple of open seats before walking over and sitting down on one.

As they headed to the damaged vendor to grab the power coupling needed to power Dr Zed's med vendor, Lilith was in deep thought.

'Why am I interested in this man? Oh please don't tell me my type is the dark and brooding type. Well at least he doesn't have a duck ass hairstyle. I guess I'll just wait and see how things turn out through our journey.' She was brought out of her thoughts by Roland asking her a question.

"What do you think of Ichigo Kurosaki?"

"Kuro-who-now?"

"Kurosaki. The man that Mikasa works for." He explained.

Gaining a thoughtful expression, Lilith rubbed her chin before speaking.

"I don't like how he is trying to hide who he is but… I guess it isn't our place to know. If he wants to tell us, he'll tell us." She replied as she noticed the vendor laying on its back. "Seems we've found what we're looking for."

She ran towards the machine, leaving Roland behind and not seeing the Skags coming out of their nest. Roland, seeing this raised his rifle and held the trigger down, spraying the Skags with a hail of bullets and scaring the crap out of Lilith in the process.

"What the fuck!?" she screamed out, turning and seeing a bunch of dead Skags.

Roland walked over to her. "You okay?"

"Y-yeah, thanks." She thanked him nervously.

They both didn't notice another Skag sneaking up on them until a gun shot rang out and the two Vault Hunters turned to see the bloody remains of a Skag sprayed across the ground. Looking to where the shot came from, the two saw up on a cliff at least one-hundred metres away, stood Mikasa. She gave them a nod and headed back to the town.

"I wonder why she was up there." Spoke Roland, before he walked over to the machine and grabbed the power coupling and walked past Lilith. "In the end it doesn't matter though. She most likely won't tell us anyway."

"Hey, wait up!" Lilith called out, running to catch up to the soldier.

When they got back to the town, they were treated to a strange. Mordecai was hanging by his ankle on a wire from the water tower and Brick was buried up to his neck in the ground with Chad running circles around his head while Mikasa and Dr Zed were both looking at a book which was most likely a medical book.

"Umm… guys… what the… fuck is this?" Lilith asked, voice full of confusion.

Mikasa looked up from the book and gave them a blank stare.

"Ichigo showed up and said he was bored." She told them as if it would explain everything and returned her attention back to the book.

"You know what? I don't care. Let's just help them." She instructed Roland to dig Brick out of the ground while she helped Mordecai down.

"Thanks Lilith. That was completely random." He told her while rubbing his back.

"Yeah, well, let's just get some shields okay?" she asked, receiving a nod.

They both turned and saw that Roland was having trouble lifting Brick out of the ground. Deciding to help him, they walked over and grabbed a part the over-sized man and hefted him with some strain to their muscles out of the hole he was kept in.

With his feet planted on the ground, Brick let out a hearty laugh before clapping Mordecai and Roland on their backs, almost knocking them to the ground.

"Thanks guys!" he practically shouted.

They headed over to the unpowered vendor and Lilith brought out the power coupling and inserted it, powering the machine up. One-by-one they got the TDR-OBS STANDARD SHIELD. Upon connecting them to their persons, the initialising of the shield display module showed up on their vision.

"Thanks for the help. You oughta use the machine to sell some things you don't need and buy First Aid Kits to use on the field." Dr Zed told them.

Mikasa coughed, getting their attention.

"Don't bother buying any first aids." At their looks of confusion, she continued. "I'll buy them and hold onto them until you need them in battle."

"Okay, that sounds good to me. Less to hold onto." Spoke Lilith.

"Let's just hand in the mission."

They headed to Zed and he gave them one of his mask smiles.

"See? You don't need a PhD to do my job. I guess people just feel more comfortable with my honest face and bedside manner. Feel free to sell your items at the med vendor and buy some first Aid Kits for later." The last bit was directed to Mikasa.

"I need a job for only myself." Mikasa told him.

The others were confused as to why she wanted a solo job, but gave up as they believed she wouldn't tell them.

"Well… I do need help blinding Nine-Toes. He placed a few men at a small outpost outside of town, across the road and west. Those men report every move we make, so our next move should be to make them dead."

As Mikasa started to head out of town, her phone buzzed. Taking it out and she noticed that someone was contacting the Vault Hunters. Using an app that Ichigo made and installed onto her phone only, she activated it and using the skills that Ichigo taught her, listened in to the conversation.

People don't yet trust you. If you're going to ever find the Vault, you'll need the aid of the people. Helping Doctor Zed with his Nine-Toes problem will be a good idea. Let Ichigo Kurosaki's assistant deal with Nine-Toes' men, but when she's done with that, you should start helping.

What do you know about her?

'Now why do you want to know about me Roland?' Mikasa thought.

Mikasa Ackerman is from a planet that has beings known as Titans. Trust me when I say this, having Miss Ackerman as an ally is something you want to keep. Try not to make an enemy out of her as she has the power to kill you without any trouble.

And with that the communication was cut and Mikasa exited out of the app, glad that this mysterious woman hadn't given anything about her away.

"What do you want Ichigo?" she asked as suddenly her boss appeared right next to her.

Giving her a small smile, he replied, "I've got a date in a couple of hours."

"Good for you. Who's the lucky man?" she asked with a smirk.

"His name's Oleg and he's half German, half Irish and has a very… very nice ass." Ichigo answered with a serious expression on his face.

It didn't last long as they both shared a laugh.

"Anything else?" she asked, knowing that he didn't just show up to tell her that, as he could have just told her back at the town. No, this was something he needed to tell her when she was alone.

"I want you to keep an ear and an eye out on what Angel has been doing."

"I'm going to guess that Angel was the woman contacting our new friends, correct?" she asked with an eyebrow raised.

"Correct! But do be careful because like you, I taught Angel how to hack." He informed her.

"I see. Do you plan on taking her as your student again?"

"I never said she was my student. I said I taught her how to hack. And besides, she's no woman. She's still a kid." He told her.

"Everyone's a kid to you dumbass."

"True… but she's like the daughter I always wished I had."

"What about me?" Mikasa asked worriedly.

"You… you are… closer to me than that."

"What do you mean by that?"

"I don't call you kiddo do I?" he asked with a slight smirk.

Mikasa thought about it for a moment and shook her head in reply.

"Now that you understand, I gotta go get ready for me date."

"Seriously, who's the lucky lady?"

"She goes by the name Mad Moxxi. I found out some more information about her from her daughter, but I think she wouldn't be happy with me telling people about her past. That and the threat to my manhood is keeping me quiet, so… good luck with your job." As he said that, he disappeared without leaving a trace.

Mikasa shook her head in exasperation and continued to the bandit outpost. As she entered, a bandit noticed her and called to the others.

"Lookit what we have here? A little missy looking lost to me. Do ya need some help girl?" he asked with a leer on his face.

The other bandits came out of the shacks and where they were patrolling to see who the new person was.

"I have no need for your help… but your death would do me nicely." She told him with no expression on her face.

"My death?" the bandits started laughing at what the girl had said.

They each readied their weapons and aimed them at her.

"You really shouldn't have said that." Ichigo called out from the entrance to the outpost.

"Who the hell are you?" one of the bandits asked him with his shotgun aimed at the new arrival.

"Oh, me?" he asked, pointing at himself. Receiving a nod from the bandit he continued. "I'm her boss. But don't worry, even if you kill her I won't try and kill you. She needs to be able to look after herself on this lovely planet."

"So… we kill her, you do nothing?" the same one asked.

"Yep!" he answered cheerfully.

"Come on boys, let's kill her." He told the rest, turning his weapon to face her and pulled the trigger.

Before he could react, a blade found itself stabbing into the bandit's head.

'One down, seven to go.' Thought Ichigo.

Using her Vertical Maneuvering Equipment (VME), she shot one arrow at the bandit's head, retrieving her blade and the other at his shotgun.

Catching the weapon, she turned to the nearest bandit, who stood next to another and pulled the trigger, hitting both in their chests, killing them.

'That's three.'

She turned towards another and saw that he had picked up some scrap metal and was using it as a shield. Shaking her head, she threw the shotgun aside and pulled out her own personal weapon. She would have killed the rest of the bandits easily if it wasn't for the fact that she did not have her special weapon on her persons.

"What!?" she exclaimed. Looking at Ichigo, she saw him waving to her with the weapon.

"Thought I'd make it more interesting." He called out to her.

'You fucking dick!' she thought before dodging fire from a bandit's assault rifle.

Quickly picking up the shotgun, she took aim at a shock barrel next to the bandit with a shield and fired.

The barrel released electricity, shocking the bandit with the shield and another that was stupid enough to run past it. Both died screaming in pain, leaving three left.

'Why are bandits so stupid? I swear I would destroy this entire outpost if-' the shock barrel exploding stopped him from continuing that thought. Though the explosion did kill another.

The last two looked at each other and before they looked back at her, Mikasa fired two shots, one at each of them. They both fell dead.

Clapping caught Mikasa's attention, who turned around and had to quickly catch her prized weapon with both hand, dropping the shotgun on the ground, causing it to fire and hit Ichigo where it counts.

Doubling over with his hands covering his crotch, Ichigo let out a grunt of pain and spoke in a voice with a higher pitch.

"Fuck! Mikasa, I need to go now… and get ready… for my… date." He spoke in-between pants. He disappeared moments later and Mikasa was sure that he wasn't coming back anytime soon.

'Well… at least he gave them back their connected ECHOs.'

Ichigo stood in front of the vault, surrounded by the destroyed bodies of the Guardians. It annoyed him that a step only took him to the beginning of The Descent and the Guardians attacked him straight away.

Deciding to end things quickly, he pulled a black cane out of his coat, even though the size would've stood out and held it in front of himself to examine it. It stood at a metre tall, with a U-shaped handle and all along it were designs carved into the wood. Carved on one side of the handle was a name in Japanese Kanji, かぐや姫 and on the other side was the English word 'DEATH'.

Looking at the word, he released a chuckle.

"Death… perfect for the situation." Pulling the handle, it showed that the cane also held a blade within it. Placing the sheath on the ground so that it stood up straight, he held the blade at his side with a loose grip on the handle.

"I won't let this fall down, so come at me."

The Guardians made strange noises of communication to each other before turning back to the shopkeeper and raising their weapons, ready to kill the intruder.

A psychotic and bloodthirsty smile took over his face as he whispered his next words.

"You are not going to survive our meeting. Let us begin the slaughter… Kaguyahime (Moon Princess)."

He had quickly dispatched of the Guardians in the area, grabbed his sheath and headed to the Eridian Promontory, moving too fast for any other Guardians to notice him.

It was just before leaving the Eridian Promontory that he accidentally kicked a rock off of the ledge he was sneaking by on and into the head of a Guardian. It turned its head in Ichigo's direction and made a loud sound in warning to its fellow Guardians.

"Shit!" he exclaimed before jumping off the ledge and using the shoulders of the Guardian, spring-boarded himself over the Guardians that had just arrived. Landing with a roll, he started sprinting in the direction of the Vault with the Guardians hot on his tail.

'Man these guys are fast! If only I could go even faster, like… something like… shunpo… or sonido… FUCK!' the face palm that he made, sounded all around the mountain as Ichigo realised his stupidity at forgetting something so simple.

Arriving at the Vault, he stopped, turned around, flashed a smirk and swung his blade. Before any of the Guardians knew it, they suddenly started falling apart. Sheathing his blade, Ichigo faced the Vault and walked towards the dais where the key would be needed to open it.

Reaching into his top, Ichigo pulled out his phone and pressed a couple of buttons before holding it to his ear and waiting for the other person to answer.

Naughty, naughty. Was the first thing that the being on the other end of the call said as they answered Ichigo's call.

"Seriously!? You're still on about that? It was one joke, one! And I was high as fuck that day, though I did learn that I would never do that shit again. Anyway, the reason I called was because I'm at the Vault right now." He told the Female sounding being on the other end.

Why are you at the Vault Kurosaki?

"I… need to know what is in here." He told her.

You know that the Destroyer is in there.

"I know about the Destroyer. What I want to know about… is the other thing that you guys put in there." He told her with a serious tone to his voice.

How!?

"I know more than I let on, but unlike the man I portray myself as, I don't have the ability to plan for so many different outcomes and I don't usually think things through. But as I said, I still know more than I let on." He said with a smirk on his face. "So are you going to tell me?"

What do you want to know?

Ichigo looked at the giant Vault symbol carved into the side of the mountain as it started leaking black wisps of energy. Energy he knew very well.

"I want to know… everything."

Suddenly four ECHO devices appeared right in front of him.

"What the fuck!"

What is it?

"I think Mikasa just sent me a couple of Vault Hunter's ECHO devices." He told her.

Mikasa?

"Oh right, you've never met her. Well, I picked her up when she was just a child. Her planet held things called Titans, which were practically deformed giant humans. She lost all her loved ones, except for her rival, so I took the both of them, had them travel with me for a couple of years and then dropped them of on Eden-5. It was on my way to my ship that she showed and asked me to make her stronger. I decided to take her with me and the rest can wait for another time." Ichigo explained.

Another time?

"Eh, it'll just be an 'extra' bit of information." He told her as he sat the phone on the ground with the speaker enabled and proceeded to do the same with his body, sitting three of the ECHOs next to him and keeping the last one on his lap.

His phone buzzed, notifying him of a message.

"Hold on, I think Mikasa just sent me a message to explain why she sent me these ECHOs." Picking up the phone, he put her on hold and read Mikasa's message.

Ichigo
Need you to connect these four ECHOs
I also need you to send 'that'
Also some tools to repair the ECHOs and items if they are damaged
Good luck with whatever you're doing
Mikasa

"Ahh, she just wanted me to connect these things." He said as he took the other off hold.

I'm not going to even pretend to understand what that means.

"And I'm not even going to try and explain. But you can continue telling me what I want to know."

Very well, it happened quite some time ago…

[A.N.]

The very first thing that I'm going to mention is that I'm horrible at writing human interaction and romance and fighting. Sorry if it isn't any good.

I will mention that I put something in here that I doubt any of you will find. Good luck with finding it though.

The extras will most likely be of what Ichigo is doing while away from the others or on his or Mikasa's past.

If any of my facts about Moxxi, her kids and the Hodunk clan is wrong please tell me, but these are the basic facts I'm keeping.

Moxxi is in her late fifties/early sixties
Ellie's in her late thirties and Scooter is in his early thirties
Moxxi met Marcus while she was still in the Hodunk clan and got pregnant with Ellie
She had her first husband, who died
Her second husband was Jimbo, she was drugged and I'm sure you know what happened and then a week later found out she was pregnant with Scooter
Before Ellie could be clan wife, Moxxi took her and Scooter and ran away

When Ellie and Scooter became independent, she left Marcus
