Shilo sighed and dragged her thumb lightly across the cheek in the photograph, old and torn at the edges. Her parents stared up at her, smiles on their faces, unknowing of the fates they were both going to slip into. Her mother, Marni, was a beautiful person - her smile was bright, and their was a clear sparkle in her eyes as she held one hand over her expanded stomach, and the other hand was held in her new husband's. Nathan Wallace had been a brilliant father, raising Shilo alone from birth, and trying to protect her. Shilo let her tears drip onto the picture - her parents were a memory, an era that had faded long before its time. Shi was still mourning her father. She still lived in the large house they had shared, only the bars at her window had been removed, and most nights, instead of being trapped in her room, she sat on this very armchair, staring at the parent she'd never known, and the parent she'd never truly appreciated. She sighed and placed it back in the drawer, locking it afterwards with the key she kept on a chain round her pale neck.
"Shit... SHIT! PAVI, GET YOUR ASS IN HERE!" Amber Sweet yelled to her brother. Her locked chest of spare street Zydrate had gone missing. Luigi had been off the scene for a while now, and Amber had strictly informed all GENterns to stay OUT of her room. "Gonna fucking slice his throat open if he's taken my Z..." Amber mumbled to herself. Pavi strutted into the room, humming a tune to himself.
"Yes, sister?" he trilled, walking smoothly up to Amber.
"Where the fuck is my chest?" she hissed, right into his new face. It was incredibly pale white, with perfect cupid's bow red lips, and enormous eyelashes that almost reminded Amber of Blind Mag. Pavi giggled and pointed to Amber's breasts.
"Right there, sweetie!" he sang. Amber resisted the urge to slap his smug girl's face and instead grabbed him by his shirt collar.
"You KNOW what I mean, you wannabe-transvestite freak!" she growled. Pavi dragged her hand away and backed off slightly.
"Calm down. I only moved it. It should be underneath your bed."
"Why did you even move it? What was the point?" Pavi shrugged and grinned through the lips of the dead girl's face.
"A GENtern was in here... trying to get into it. I shot her." He couldn't help giggling at the concept that he was now the most violent in the Largo family, since Luigi left.
"If I found out you're lying to me, I will make sure you're dead by morning." Amber threatened, and flounced off and out of the building. Nobody except her knew where she was going - the graveyard.
