A Golden Lily and A Joestar, Fight Against the Bizarre Fate

Chapter 19: Sad and lonely children part 2

The police were called immediately and upon investigation, it looked liked the kidnapper had climb through an unlocked window and had abducted Phoebe while she was in a deep sleep due to the lack of a struggle and that no one heard anything out of the ordinary. Even with the policemen investigating and searching all around....it seemed that Phoebe had just disappeared without trace and whoever had kidnapped her was long gone. Caesar fell into a deep depression when the girl he loved so much was stolen from him. She was never found and if she was alive or dead or worse, Caesar had no idea.

He told Lily in private that he was planning to run away from the orphanage by the end of the week and take her along with him. Lily didn't know what to do. She loved her big brother, but she was scared of living on the streets. With her childish imagination she thought that scary monsters lived out in the dark streets. Caesar told her that she has five days to make up her mind before he leaves.

In the end, Caesar didn't have to wait very long for her decision. It only took one day and Lily was on board and was more than ready in getting the hell out of there! While Caesar was packing up food and stole a small bit of money from the owner's office, Lily was playing with the other kids when one of the caretakers comes and told them that a couple was coming in to adopt a child. At first, Lily was happy and smiled brightly. She thought that maybe she and Caesar could find a family and live peacefully. She thought that maybe it was that nice butcher and his wife. She and the rest of the kids ran to their rooms and got themselves ready for their potential parents.

Lily was a little slow in getting ready and most of the children all ran downstairs. Lily brushed her hair and tied it up in ribbons and braids and put on the best clothes she had. She was making her way towards the stairs, then her heart dropped down to her stomach. The couple that came in that day....were her parents. They didn't appear to be worried, heartbroken or anything at all.

"Hello. We liked to adopt a child." Her "mother" said.

A year. She ran away from them and had been on her own...for a year! But over the course of that year, she hadn't heard anything about reports of a missing child or her "parents" searching for her.

"Of course, I can set up an interview with the children if you like." The owner tells them with a kind smile. Even after she ran away and had been gone for a year....

"Can you set up an interview with handful of boys? We would like to have a son." Her "father" tells her. AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN CARE!!! Lily clenched her fist so tightly and with rage filling inside her heart. Angry tears swelled in her eyes and ran off to find Caesar. When she did, she practically bawled her eyes out to hurry up and leave. Some time later, Caesar ran away from the orphanage with little Lily in hand, ended up sleeping in the streets of the poor districts of Rome. During their time, Caesar took every precaution to protect his little sister. In a way, he adopted her himself.

The money they took was running out in a rapid pace and very soon they'll won't have anything else to survive. With the desperate ferocity of two young kids who had thrown away their youth and future, Caesar and Lily had become daredevil criminals. They both committed theft, arson, assault, burglaries, fights. Anything short of outright murder. Lily had changed from a scared, broken girl into a savaged, brutal, and cynical teen who's anger can be compared of that of a raging lion. Caesar allowed her to vent out her anger towards other street punks by letting her beat them half to death. Even the local mafiosos feared them.

One night, after Caesar, Lily and small group of theirs took control over another gang's turf, an Italian hoodlum suddenly came and approached them. "Hey, you're that guy named Caesar, aren't you?" He asked. His eyes then down towards the preteen girl at his side, she was clutching his tattered black jacket. "And that must be your little unstable sister Lily." Like a feral cat, she hissed at him. The hoodlum felt dread creeping up on him when he looked at her eyes. They were blank, soulless and dead. But her face held such an angry expression. Fighting back those feelings, the hoodlum sent a snarky smile to Caesar.
