Law(age 7) was running down the street to escape the fishmen pirates from whom he stole some food and money. "Dammit". He thought. Law was already tired and could feel how his breath was getting heavier and it was harder for him to run. "Come back here, you shitty brat!" One of the fishmen screamed as they get closer to kid who stole their goods."Shit! I can't run anymore. I'm gonna..." And before he could even finish saying that one simple phrase he felt someone caught him and dragged from the main street into the corner of the building.
"Please, be quiet." He heard a voice of the person who saved him from his chasers. He could say by her voice that it was a girl, about his age. He couldn't see her face though. It was too dark. Both of them stood there quietly for a while till the fishmen gave up on beating crap out of that kid. When the fishmen were gone the girl let go of Law who immidiately jumped out on the street and turned around to see his savior's face. The girl stepped then into the sunlight shutting her eyes for a moment because of the sun. Now Law could see her perfectly. It was a cute little girl with short, curly and golden blond hair as bright as the sun. She was wearing a white plain dress and brown boots. But most amazing were her eyes. Beautiful, big, shining eyes. One of them was blue and the other one was green. For a moment Law could see them changing shape like those that snakes have. Law found himself hypnotized. He felt like he cod stare into them forever.
"Um, excuse me?" A cute and polite voice broke the silence: "Is everything okay? Are you hurt somewhere?" Law didn't manage to find words in his confusion but after another part of silence he finally spoke: "No. Thank you for help. Who are you?" The girl felt happy and relieved to know that the boy she helped was alright. "I'm Lilly." She said with a smile. "Lilly Underland. And you?" Law stared at her with disgustiment in his eyes now. "Not your business." He said arrogantly.
Lilly stared at him confused for a moment, but then spoke with an annoyed smile on her face: "Then how about me calling you "shitty brat" just like those fishmen did? Does it please you?" And with that he was completely defeated. He just couldn't believe that some random girl could speak back to him like that. He felt such an anger at that time. He just gave her a glare and introduced himself: "Law. Trafalgar Law."
Lilly with a triumphal smile on her face took hold of Law's hand. "Well then, Law. It's getting pretty late already. Should we go look for a place for the night? We're both orphans after all." At that moment Law broke the hold and seemed pretty pissed off right now. What the hell was she thinking!? "And what gave you the idea that I'm an orphan?"
"..."
"Well?"
"Then what? Are you gonna tell me you're not?"
She got him there. Since the Donquixote family came to Dressrosa he had to take care of himself. His parents died in the fire. He hadn't have any other relatives. He was all alone now.
After realizing what she just did Lilly felt stupid for not thinking about her words. Without saying anything she just grabbed Law's hand again and looked at him with a cute friendly smile. She was so close to him now. He could easily hear her breathing. Not loosing the hold Lilly started walking to where the forest was and said smoothly: "Let's go find our home, Law." Her voice was so soft at that time. Law just couldn't help but to feel so peacefull and safe at the time. He also grabbed her hand and followed with a smile on his face. He wasn't alone anymore.
Law and Lilly have been living together for a month now in the cabin on the tree they built. They were best friends now. After they ate their breakfast which were some orange juice, wild pig's meat they caught the other day and some sandwiches (onigiri for Law, he somehow hated bread) they headed to the town. They stopped walking at the old fountainn.
"We're meeting here at the evening."
Said Law.
"Like always!" Lilly answered with a smile full of enthusiasm. Law looked at her with a serious stare. "But pease, be careful. We don't want yesterday's event with colloseum's guards to happen again." He sure was right. Lilly got so reckless she alnost get caught by those guys. But somehow with Law's help she managed to escape. Anyway to avoid a longer talk she just said:
"Okay. See ya!"
And then they split up.
Lilly was at the port now looking for some useful items that sea thrown on the beach. She would use them to build traps for the intruders who used to invade their forest from time to time.
As Lilly tested some of the lines and pals she found, a shadow came upon her. Then she heard the voice of a grow man. It sounded just like screeching of a ghost. "Why, hello there. Child of abyss."
Lilly just stood there speechless and too scared to turn around. It's been such a long time since she heard that nickname. Lilly still shuddering of fear slowly turned around to see a very tall man. All she could see at the moment was his scar on his cheek. There was no mistaken about it. This man was working for the celestial dragons.
Law was already finished with getting some food for their supper and headed back to the fountainn like he alwats did. But surprisingly Lilly wasn't there yet. That's wierd. She should be here already. She was always first. He decided to wait ther for her to come back. And so he waited and waited.
It was getting dark already and she wasn't back yet. Law started tovfear something. He got a hold of himself and started rushing through the town hoping she was alright. As Law reached the port he started screaming Lilly's name and listening for a response. But all he could hear was silence. He started searching the beach with fear in his eyes. And all he found was a small brown boot. It's hers - he thought. He just stood there holding the boot close to his chest. As tears started flowing down on Law's face he realised something. Lilly was gone.
