A/n 2 soo sorry for the long wait, I had a major case of writers block and some life stuff that took up my time. Thanks to everyone who have stuck with me.
Graverobber moved shilo over so she was lying on the bed; it was easier to move her now that she was awake. Standing up and looking at her "I have to go harvesting now. Would you like to come? "
Shilo sat up on the bed a little surprised that Graverobber had asked her to come with him. "I would love to come "it had been a day since she had left the same little apartment, she felt ready to try. She grabbed a pair of clothes from the top of the dresser; she guessed Graverobber had gone back to her house again; she was surprised he went back in there.
She walked to the bathroom and cleaned up, shilo heard movement outside of the bathroom, Graverobber was getting everything together he would need to go harvesting. She was just finishing getting changed when she heard a yell from the living room.
"Hey kid you ready to go yet "she opened the door and walked out of the bathroom, Graverobber was already headed for the door. Shilo followed him out into the hall Graverobber shut the door behind them not bothering to lock it "aren't you going to lock the door "? Shilo asked confused, Graverobber laughed "you really have been locked inside for too long kid there is nothing in that place worth stealing".
Shilo looked up at the sky "it is pretty quiet out tonight" they were getting closer to the graveyard. Shilo didn't know Graverobber had stopped walking until she looked to her side and he was gone. She looked back over her shoulder and saw him standing there tense "shilo hide now" Graverobber commanded as he went to crouch by a headstone, she went to hide behind a dumpster. It only took a few minutes before shilo saw a repo man walk by, she was going to yell at Graverobber and tell him to watch out, but then she saw him tell her to keep quiet by putting a finger to his lips.
The legal assassin Stopped right in-between them shilo moved her foot a little and didn't notice it hitting the wall. The repo man's head shot up, he started to walk towards shilo, in a second Graverobber was running towards him ready to attack " stay away from her you creep " Graverobber punched him in the arm, the repo man only stopped for a second. Graverobber pulled a needle from his bag raising it getting ready to stab the man. He aimed the needle at the mans back, Bringing it down going right into his heart killing him instantly.
The repo man fell to the ground right in front of shilo "can we go now "she squeaked out, Graverobber grabbed her hand and helped her walk around the repo man's dying body.
They started to walk towards a fresh grave, Graverobber hadn't let go of shilo's hand yet. She looked over at him; his eyes were darting all over the graveyard. He had started to hum softly; it was a tune shilo didn't know. It seemed like he was looking for something, they reached the grave; Graverobber got his tools out and pulling the body out of the grave. He unfolded the plastic; he had just slammed the needle into the corpse's skull, his head shot up like he had heard something.
All the time shilo had been standing back watching intently to what he was doing. She hadn't even noticed that they were surrounded, all around them were Gencops with loaded weapons, and Graverobber just went right back to work pulling the needle out followed by the flowing blue liquid that he loved so much. He pulled the needle full out of the skull and put the zydrate into his bag, Standing up to look at the Gencops, his eyes meeting very smug looking Amber.
"Look what we caught boys a criminal and a stray "the Gencops started laughing, cracking a smile for amber " well this could be a problem " he said looking at the Gencops, one of the Gencops walked up to shilo pulling her away and putting her in handcuffs " you shilo Wallace are under arrest for aiding and a bedding a known criminal " amber said coldly then turning to Graverobber she smiled a little " and as for you we have you on about a hundred counts of grave robbing " after she said that Graverobber felt a guy roughly putting handcuffs on him and pushing him forward, falling onto the ground in front of amber.
Amber looked down at him, "if you wanted to see me amber you could have called "he said smirking amber walked up and hit him across the face, smiling at the blood coming off his lip. "you had to know this was coming Graverobber " she said, Graverobber looked up at her ignoring the guards surrounding them, " did you want to be in charge all you had to do was ask miss sweet " Graverobber said looking down at her feet.
Shilo was quiet she didn't know what to say as they were lead back to a van and drove back to Gene Co, they were forcefully removed from the van and lead into Rotti's office. He was sitting behind his desk looking at some papers; he looked up when amber cleared her throat, Graverobber walked in looking Rotti right in the eyes, shilo followed trying to stay calm, and she didn't know what was going to happen.
The guards still held tight to Graverobber and shilo until Rotti looked up "you may leave "he said. He looked at shilo first, looking her up and down taking in her appearance " shilo how nice to see you again " Rotti said smiling at her, she moved closer to Graverobber nervous.
"Its ok kid he won't hurt you while I'm here "Graverobber whispered. Rotti stood up moving around his desk, watching Graverobber carefully.
"I was worried about you when Nathan told me you had run away, I have been searching. I never thought you would end up with this filth, why don't come with me and I can take you home. Your father misses you very much "Rotti reached a hand out to shilo, shilo cringed away from rotti's hand. " shilo what's wrong, don't you want to see you dad " Rotti asked looking confused, he put the hand back at his side and stood back. Now looking at Graverobber "what do you know about shilo running away "he asked frowning?
Graverobber met rotti's eyes, he didn't even flinch when he started talking, moving a few steps towards Rotti " the only way I knew she was in trouble was when she ran into me, she was afraid and in pain. She didn't need to say anything I saw the bruises. Did you know her father was beating her "? He asked watching for any signs of emotion.
Rotti's face got very tense and his got cold. Looking back and forth between shilo and Graverobber "I did not know that and I am deeply sorry for the pain he has caused shilo. I will have one of my best employees remedy the situation soon, you don't have to worry. "He said smiling softly
Shilo flinched when he said that, Wondering what he meant by that statement, but already knowing the truth. She Sighed softly "why did you bring us here "she asked looking at Rotti, he looked back at her. " I have been looking for you, when the GENcops spotted you walking with Graverobber I was concerned. I thought something had happened to you, I thought he hurt you. So I had the GENcops bring you here" shilo looked back at Graverobber " he has been nice to me, he has helped me so much, if you say you brought us here because of my safety than why were we charged " shilo asked raising an eyebrow.
Rotti looked at Graverobber "we have been trying to catch him for awhile. He was always so cautious before we never got a shot. Then when we saw you with him, we assumed that you were harboring him "
Graverobber laughed after Rotti was done speaking " you thought she was harboring me, like her dad would ever let that happen, but then again there seems to be a lot about your employees you don't know " Graverobber said glaring at Rotti moving closer to shilo, glancing towards the door " are we free to go now, since I obviously have not touched her and you can't get me on the grave robbing either, I was already tried for that and was cleared of all charges, so if you tried me again I think that would be considered double jeopardy" he added smirking.
Rotti thought for a moment considering his options. Then he took a second to look from shilo to Graverobber, meeting the other man's eyes "you may have a point, if all of that is true then I don't see another reason to keep you two here "Rotti said, walking over to his office door and opening it "you are both free to go "
