Disclaimer: I do not own the series Outlaw Star, nor the main characters involved. However Lilith is a product of my ideas, so please, please, please if for some reason any of you wish to use her. Ask me first. Other than that, please enjoy the fanfiction; it's my first one, and I'm new to this field in general, so comments, and all that are greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time. Now.. onto the reading!

The sounds of children and game play echoed about as a blackness remained constant in surroundings. " Hey; ow! That hurt, stupid. Ah, Ah! Let go a' my hair! " Came the voice of a little girl; obviously irritated by the onslaught before there came another thunk.

Fist to her head followed by remarks of belittlement from older kids.

" Who'll ever want some little grass stain like you? "

" Yeah, haha..grass stain.."

" Shut up! "

" Nobody's gonna want ya'. You're too manly. The only thing girly about you is your name; Lily. "

" Rrr...I'll show you, someone'll want me. Just watch! "

" Hahahaha. " Several voices joining together in a swirl of laughter which faded away as a picture came into view.

There was the little girl, shoulder length teal hair in a purple jump suit and dark brown eyes. She was looking at a boy who came in with a much older man. He has hair like hers, and eyes like her clothes. Her mouth gapep open; it hadn't seemed possible. The other kids were around too, it was like this dog pound, only for children and modernized in such a way, of course. Each lined up infront of their assigned beds.

Every single child in high hopes of getting out of this orphanage; that boy seemed to be calling the shots, quite the big-shot for someone so young. So far they all failed to meet the criteria, closer and closer they came, little Lily felt her heart pounding. Pulse ringing in her ears. Thu-thump, thu-thump. Thu-thump.Thu-umpthump. And then a skip of beat. She was eye to eye with the other boy whom pointed at her. " Her. I want her. "

A puzzled look swept over her features causing the poor thing to point at herself in question. All the cyan haired boy did was nod, " Well come on. Come on. Listen when I talk to you! " He started a little anger, about to step forth and grab her by the arm but stopped by a hand of the older male.

" Now, Harry.. settle down. " Casting his glance her way with a charming smile, " It's alright, please, just come with us. I know you're anxious to get out of here.." The older said addressing Lily, his free hand extended.

An instant nod to the remark; of course she wanted out. Immediately coming forward and taking hold the large, darkly tanned hand with her little pale one and holding tight. Which caught the man by suprised it'd seem, " Quite a grip, little lady. " Only making her giggle eyes shut.

The boy her age calming down on the otherside the taller of them both and leading the way out, Lily and the man following behind. The usual sounds filled the air after a selection day, drowned out unnaturally by the sound of a bell.

Crash! A hand flattening itself across the alarm clock causing the sound to cease. Sleepy groan exited lips, body rising up from under the covers now sitting gazing at the clock now through messy strands. A fist rose to rub at her eyelids before reading the time. Nine o'clock sharp. " Damn it, I'm going to be late. " Lilith cursed quickly slipping out of the covers resuming a quick dressing routine, combing of hair and out the room.

" You're late, Lilith.. "

" I know, I know.." Taking a seat.

" Hehehe, what'd you do over-sleep again? "

" ..Shut up. "

" Alright, enough you two. Let's get down to business here.. we've just been offered a very important job. "

The two quieting and giving their older counter part undivided attention, though a little sourly on Lily's behalf. " So what's it this time? Another heist; assassination? " She inquired.

" Something like that. " Ron answered. " Infact, it's a call from one of our dear Luo brother's is having a problem with the infamous Hot Ice Hilda.. and wants us to get rid of her. "

She blinked puzzled, " Hot Ice Hilda? You've never told me about her. "

" No? "

" No. "

" Alright.." Glancing to Harry whom then nodded rising from his seat, leaving the two be. Ron in that time then wrapping an arm around her, drawing her nearer. " Then it's about time I filled you in. "
