Rating: TBD
Status: In progress.

Shilo couldn't believe that Graverobber was there as well. She had been expecting to be alone in this foreign place, had been prepping herself for it, really. True, she had met Arriane, but still, she had been convinced that she'd be alone. Her dad was dead, her godmother and the one person who had shown her the ropes was no where to be seen. Yet merely a few days after her own arrival, Graverobber showed up, commenting on her post about bugs. Of course, so did Amber and Shilo couldn't help the disdain she felt. Amber had tried to ruin Mag's career before she was killed. Didn't care about anything but herself. But she couldn't blame her for her father's dead, or Mag's really. That had been Rotti's doing. But no matter, Shilo decided to ignore that and instead find Graverobber.

Finding one of the free newspaper stands that the city had, Shilo made her way towards the nearby McDonalds. Having only been in Lawrence for two days, Shilo hadn't gotten a chance to explore as much as she wanted, well, when she wasn't afraid to that is. But this gave her the chance to do just that, so after getting lost a few times, Shilo finally found a McDonalds and it was easy enough to pinpoint Graverobber from the more mundane type people of this city.

Shifting some, the seventeen year old made her way over to where Graverobber was and sat down, pushing the newspaper so that it was in front of him. She didn't know exactly how else to give him proof. Though she supposed she could take him to the park. It wasn't like there were any parks on Sanitarium Island.

Shilo was freaking out. After all, she had never had to deal with such things back home. Of course, being locked in her room tended to keep her out of such things. She was sheltered and didn't know how to deal with such things. So when the thug tried to grab her again, Shilo backed up, tripping over an abandoned wooden chair. But it seemed Graverobber had it under control.

Even so, she felt like she needed to help somehow. So thinking on her feet, Shilo grabbed the chair she had stumbled over and smashed it into the brutish thug's back. Too bad it didn't do any good. Eyes growing wide as he turned around, Shilo tried to back up before she was flung into the alley wall. Crying out in pain, Shilo slumped against the wall, her head pounding from where she had hit it. This was bad. This was really bad.

Why did it always come to Graverobber saving her? And more importantly, why did he willingly do so? Sure here it made sense, she was his guide of sorts, but back home.... But back home, she had nothing, so she didn't want to think about it.

Didn't I say the world was cruel, didn't I?

And in her mind, she heard her father's words ringing in her head. She should have listened. The world was dangerous, she was only safe in her room... but she didn't even have that anymore.

All it took to set Graverobber off was that thug tossing Shilo into a wall. He was usually so calm and collected. You needed to keep a clear head if you wanted to get by in his line of work. Lose your cool and bad stuff can happen. Graverobber was not going to let this guy hurt Shilo any more.

Graverobber could hold his own in a fight, but had never made a habit of getting into scuffles. He was a little rusty, but was picking up just fine. He swung, his knuckles connecting with the thug’s face with force that surprised both of them. With a few more blows the thug was on the ground, but at that point he would have had to beg to get his attacker to relent. Pissed off, Graverobber was practically growling as he delivered kick after kick to the thug’s gut and rib cage. He’d almost lost track of Shilo during all of it.

She couldn't breathe. Oh god, she couldn't breathe. She could feel the panic welling inside of her and she was convinced she could heard her father's voice telling her to take her medicine. But it wasn't her medicine. It was his. Because she didn't really have a blood condition. But that didn't change the fact that Shilo. Could. Not. Breathe. Gasping for breath, the teen curled up into herself, trying to escape the fighting.

It did no good though. She could hear the sounds of the fight, and over her arm, she could see it. Graverobber was winning. But he shouldn't have to be fighting. If she hadn't gotten them lost.... Standing on shaky legs, Shilo went to her savior of sorts and tugged on his arm, tears she didn't know she had staining her cheeks.

"It's okay, let's just get out of here..." She hurt. Her back, her head. She was cold. Getting them back to the Complex seemed like a good idea at the moment.
