Sorry I haven't updated in so long, I've been really busy and working on other stories. I'll try to update more frequently. And please remember to review!

"Why do you not like the shopping channel?" Valkyrie asked China as they flipped past the shopping channel on Skulduggery's TV.

China shivered, "I don't want to talk about it."

"Oh come on, it can't be that bad."

"Yes it was."

"Then tell me."

China sighed and turned off the TV. She turned to Valkyrie. "It was a few years ago and I needed to get a new purse for the Sanctuary Ball that is hosted every year." She took a deep breath. "So I looked on eBay but didn't see anything I liked. Plus, most of it was used. Anyway, after looking through assorted magazines and shopping sights, I went to my last resort."

"The Shopping channel," Valkyrie guessed.

"Exactly. So I watched for a few hours till I saw it. The exact purse I was looking for. I called the number and put in my order. A few days later, the day of the ball, it arrived."

China took a shaky breath. "I took the box inside and opened it to find." She paused. "It was the wrong color."

Valkyrie stared. "I'm so sorry."

"I know."

Valkyrie patted her and Skulduggery walked in and cocked his head. "What are you doing?"

"You wouldn't understand," Valkyrie snapped. "Girl things."

"Oh."
