You say by the side of the road. You were bruised and tired, from walking to London all the way from your home, 82 miles away. It had taken you a week and two days. You were running away from an abusive family. They didn't care of course. Why would they have cared?

Suddenly a small boy comes over to you. Oliver twist

Oliver: "hello friend, what are you doing here? do you have a house?"

Then a boy in a tophat speaks up. He looks like he's trying to be a gent, but is wearing all mismatched clothes

Dodger: "yeah what do you do!?"

He seems the more energetic from the two

You just stared at them. Oliver and dodger stared back at you

Oliver: "are you okay?"

Dodger: "We should probably take him to old Fagin, Oliver. he's too tired. I'm sure Fagin will take care of him"

Oliver: "oh okay"

The two of them took you to Fagin's den

Bill: "he's a strange boy... That's for certain!" He says nastily

Fagin: Strange yes but he's clearly... Quite special. I dont know, somehow something feels unique about him

Nancy: "What do you mean?" Nancy asks

Fagin: "see for yourself"
