Beginning
It all started with a wish. For three orphans forgotten by the world, with the hope that the demise of the ruling family of the city they dwelt at, will be the beginning of the improvement for the lot in their life.
Middle
In the middle of summer, where the sun shines warmly, with the promise of a great day ahead was the time they finally accept. That they were powerless to change the condition of their lives as they are.
End
With skin blue and black, from the punches and kicks of a group of thugs many years their senior, for the precious, precious bread they work so hard to steal from a vendor in the market, Giotto realized that they must end their childish hope for salvation.
Inside
Because for the longest time, he had believed inside the deepest part of his heart, that there will be a savior, to deliver them to a better future.
Outside
By the time Giotto's heartfelt wish for a kind savior vanish into the ether, his loyal partner in crime and fellow pea in the same pods as him G, had already built an impenetrable tough and abrasive behavior to deal with everyone beside Giotto and Cozart.
Hours
It only took hours, for their group to have addition from the first glimpse they got of their newest member. The three of them had been working at the docks when they spied a foreign teenager roughly the same age as them being harassed by Horatio's group of misfits. By the time they managed to scatter them away, the foreign boy had profusely tried to thank the three of them even if they had no common language and insisted on treating them to a dinner as soon as the three of them done their work for the day.
Days
The time flew by quickly as the boy introduced as Ugetsu spend his free time trying to teach the three of them Japanese while the trio repaid him by teaching him Sicilian.
(It involved a lot of gestures and hilarious miming, but it took only days for the boys to stutter their introduction in a new and exciting foreign language)
Weeks
As wise man said, time filled with happiness will end seemingly in a blink of an eye. Three quarter of a moon is the only time they got together. Ugetsu had to leave for his home country with his fellow countrymen.
Months
They tried their hardest to stay in correspondence with each other, even if they were separated by the distance of half a world away. It takes months for each of their correspondence to reach the other , however, every time the spied the envelope unique to the other's country custom they can't help but be excited of news from foreign land and dearest friends.
Years
Half a decade is the time they spent in correspondence with each other, before eventually, a recently turned twenty years old Giotto entreated his friend from across the world to come stay with him to share in their dream to found a protection group for the town they first met.
