Scipio was out doing his regular thieveing. That was until he saw a girl. She had short blond spiky hair and pale skin. She was slim and tall, around the same size as Prosper. She was walking. She had a bag on her back. It was drooping. She was wearing a black jacket over a black ra ra dress with black converse. She looked like she just ran out of a party. Scipio slowly made his way toward her. " Who's there?" her velvet voice said. She was worrying.
" The Thief Lord." Scipio declared.
" If you are really a Thief Lord, you wouldn't want to declare it to the world. I know I wouldn't. But hey, we are very different people." She smirked and relaxed. " What if I was the daughter of a policeman? You'd be in trouble there. But maybe I am not." She sighed delicately. " Why don't you come down from that roof? You might fall." Her voice wasn't posh and snotty. Scipio scowled and jumped down, his long coat trailing out behind him like black wings. " What is your real name?" She asked. 'Lie' Scipio thought. " Jack, Jack Thomas."
" Well Jack, Jack Thomas. I believe you are lying. Your tense, one of the many signs of lying. Now tell me your real name, I shall tell you mine." She was good. He noticed she was wearing black fingerless gloves.
" My name is Scipio Massimo." He whispered.
"My name is Evangeline Shadow." She whispered back, smiling.
" Don't you want to change?" He inquired.
" I have a set of clothes in my bag." She shivered slightly as it started to rain.
" Why don't you come stay with me and my gang of thieves?" He said. Holding out his hand. She went to shake it. " Ok."
" No Evangeline, you hold it." He explained. She tilted her head slightly and held his hand. Suddenly footsteps came.
"Stop! That's my Daughter!" Called a man. He was tall and slim with glasses on with a t-shirt and jeans.
" Run…NOW!" Evangeline yelled. They ran through the streets, through alleyways and over bridges until they reached…the Stella. Scipio knocked. " Prosper! It's me! Scipio!" He exclaimed. The door opened and a boy Evangeline's height with brown hair opened it.
" Who's That?" He asked, very rudely.
" Evangeline." He rushed her through the door and bolted it shut.
"Scipio? Don't tell them where you found me. Lie." She pleaded, whispering. They walked into the opening of the movie theatre.
" Scip!" A small boy with curly blond hair ran up to him and hugged him. Evangeline looked awkward as Mosca and Riccio started at her. " Guys, this is Evangeline Shadow. I was staking out the party when she bumped into me and she told me she was running away so I brought her here…until her dad spotted us and we had to run." He chuckled at the end. " Hornet, make Evangeline a bed please. She has spare clothes so she wont need any until Wednesday." Hornet made Evangeline a bed and Evangeline got dressed into an old t-shirt and black pyjama bottoms. She laid out what looked like jeans, a black t-shirt, black converse and her black jacket. Also her fingerless gloves. " Ok Guys. Lights out. Sleep! Prop, take Evangeline to Barbarossa tomorrow. I have feeling we'll have a good cash tomorrow." Scipio said.
" But Scip, I'm Hungry!" Bo complained.
" I have food." Evangeline said. Bo scurried over to her. He gave the puppy dog eyes but she just laughed.
"Sorry, they don't work on me." But she gave him some cake anyway.
" Thank-you Evang-Evange- Um Evan." He smiled as he went over to his bed after finishing the cake.
