Disclaimer I do not own any part of Repo! The Genetic Opera that right belongs to
Terrance Zdunich, Darren Smith and Darren Lynn Bousman
Author's Notes: This takes place after Shilo leaves the Opera and also there will be refference to a deleted scene Needle Through a Bug. If you end up confused message me for the link to the scene. In this story she helps him down and she runs into him again sometime after having left the Opera. Well with out further ado
Shilo ran as fast as her legs could take her away from the Opera. Her mind was a jumbled messed after the nights events. How could this have happened? She thought to herself. Tears began to roll down her cheeks as she ran. It would only be a matter of time before the Largo siblings came looking to hunt her down.
I have to find a place to go somewhere safe she thought. Shilo decided to run down an alleyway she wasn't certain where she would go, but she knew she had to get as far away from the Largo family as possible. I know I can't go back home that would be the first place they would look for me she told herself. She reached the end of the alley and began looking around.
"Hey kid so we meet again" came an all too familiar voice. "Graverobber" Shilo gasped. "The one and only" he grinned. "What are you doing here?" Shilo wondered. Graverobber pushed himself off the wall he was leaning against and began to approach Shilo. "I could ask you the same question" he told her. "I need to get away the Opera went terribly wrong and my father he's dead" she cried.
Graverobber placed a hand on Shilo's shoulder. "I know we all saw what happened on the screens and you have my sincerest condolences" he offered. "Thank you so much" she replied. "Well now it seems as though you're in a mighty fine predicament and I just might be able to help" he stated. "Thank you, but I wouldn't want to cause you any trouble since the Largos will be after me" she explained.
Graverobber gave Shilo his most charming smile. "Helping you after you helped me is only the right thing to do" he reasoned. "Yes, you're right I suppose" she agreed. The Graverobber nodded in affirmation. "What were you doing tied up upside down like that anyways?" Shilo inquired. "If you must know Amber and her bodyguards did it and than that bitch cleaned me out of my Z that stupid scalpel slut" Graverobber explained.
"Oh I see" Shilo replied. "Well I'm guessing you're in need of a place to lay low for a while aren't you kid?" Graverobber questioned. "Yes, I can't exactly go home since they most likely will look for me there first" Shilo explained. "It's settled then you'll come and stay with me for awhile" Graverobber offered. "Oh, but I couldn't possibly" Shilo declined. "Nonsense" Graverobber stated.
Shilo let out a gasp as Graverobber took her by the hand and started to lead her out of the alley. "Don't I get a say in this?" she asked. "Listen to me kid if you don't come with me and accept my help than the Largos will definitely come for you and you will be killed" he told her. "I understand, but how can I know that I can trust you?" she asked. "You'll just have to take a chance the way I see it is you don't have much of a choice" he replied. "You have a point" she agreed.
The two walked through a series of alleys until they reached what looked like an apartment building. Graverobber led Shilo up a flight a stairs and stopped in front of a beat up looking wooden door. Graverobber flicked on a light as two entered the run down apartment.
"Hey kid I'm sorry it's not a five star hotel" Graverobber apologized. "It's fine really it is" Shilo assured him. "Listen you can stay as long as you need and I will help in anyway that I can you can consider this thanks for helping me out before" he told her. "What if Amber comes looking for more Zydrate?" Shilo wondered. "Leave that to me I can handle her" Graverobber assured her. "It's a bit late so I think I will go to bed now" Shilo told him. "That's okay you can take the bed" he said pointing in the direction of a beat up looking bed in the corner of the room. "I couldn't possibly that's your bed" she protested.
Graverobber made a tsking sound and shook his head. "Here I am being hospitable and you're going to be ungrateful like that" he scolded. "Well where would you sleep?" Shilo inquired. "I will sleep on the couch trust me I slept on much worse" he told her. "Well if you insist" Shilo replied. "I do insist now off to bed with you kid" he grinned.
Shilo nodded and headed towards the bed. Shilo kicked off her boots and got in. Graverobber came over and helped cover her up. "Now try to get some rest you can think about what to do tomorrow" Graverobber said as he patted Shilo on the head. "Goodnight" Shilo called after him. "Goodnight kid" he replied.
Shilo watched in silence as Graverobber got ready for bed. She watched as he removed his boots and laid down on the couch. They both yawned and closed their eyes. What am I going to do now mom's dead, dad's dead, and even Mag I don't have anyone now except for him Shilo thought to herself. Silent tears drifted down her cheeks as she thought about everything that has happened. What in the heck am I doing taking the kid in maybe I should of just left her alone, but she would have had nobody and a pretty girl like her shouldn't be on the streets on her own. Oh man now the kid's crying maybe she'll have a good cry and fall asleep. Graverobber thought to himself as he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep. Tomorrow was another day.
