He zoomed through the alleys of his cursed city while the giant of an owner chased him. He was a street kid. No one knew the back alleys better than him. This was also the only reason he could avoid being caught...but it would not last long. Even now, the owner was catching up to him.
"Give me a break, fatso!"
"Shut up you little brat! Wait till I get my hands on you!"
He jumped over a stand of fruits while coating himself with electricity. The owner just ran through the stand, littering and crushing fruits and vegetables across the ground.
"HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"
"I'll compensate you later! SO SHUT UP AND LET ME CATCH THIS BRAT!"
"Gahhh!"
The man who had lost his stand just threw his hands in the air. He did not have the courage to pick a fight with the owner after realising who he was talking to.
He was being compensated anyway...anger wasn't good for his health either...he would back down today. No, he was not a coward!
Alex swung off poles and jumped over the small businesses in the alleyway, over the people hawking their wares and jumping over the cloth roofs that they had set up, gaining momentum and airtime with each jump.
The owner was instead ruining everyone's day and their source of income because he could, while yelling at the people running the stands as if he was the victim. Haaa...what a vicious man.
Alex ran as far as he could but was slowly losing his power and his stamina. Even a little bundle of energy would get tired. After all, he was just a young boy.
He saw a lady up ahead in the middle of two pathways. She was casually browsing through the steel weapons standing on wooden stands in a small stall. The vendor was trying his utmost to try and convince her that she was getting her money's worth.
He was so close...he could feel it! This woman seemed to know nothing about weapons, or bargaining, or the world in general! He was about to make a big profit...and then he saw a boy hopping towards his stall...and the cashcow who would give him a ton of milk.
Behind was...oh no...the owner! That horrendous fool! He was going to crush his stall and ruin everything! He screamed to try and salvage the situation.
"NO! STOP! PLEASE STOP RUNNING AT ONCE!"
But it was no use. Alex dove towards the woman and quickly arrived before her.
"Hey! Lady! Can you do me a favour and hide me? I got to get away from this dude..."
"Okay"
"Wha-"
Before he could try to make sense of the situation and get over his shock that she agreed so quickly, she took his head and shoved him under her skirt.
"WHAT THE HELL?!?!"
The owner ignored the woman and crushed the poor vendors stand as he barrelled straight ahead towards the left road. The vendor fell on his knees, tears streaming down his face.
'My cash...my cow...my cash cow....my profit...money....ahhhhh!'
The vendor curled on the floor and bawled like a baby. The woman just stood their and looked at the broken weapons on the ground and sighed. Looks like she might have to get weapons from somewhere else.
She then heard the boy screaming something under her skirt.
"What?"
**************************************
Alex in the meantime was a blubbering fool. He was just shoved under a woman's skirt. What the hell was wrong with this woman? You don't jus-...
He looked up and saw that the woman...did not wear anything under her skirt...
"GAHHHHH! MY EYES!!"
He had run into someone scarier then the owner. He jumped away from a whirlpool only to find himself drowning in lava! He had stumbled upon...Gasp! A PERVERT!!
"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU WOMAN!! ARGHHH! MY POOR INNOCENT EYES!"
He turned away. His face burning red. Sure, the woman had saved him. But at what cost? Did this woman have no dignity? What was he supposed to do now? No, he had to get away! But first...
"Molesting pervert say what?!"
"What?"
"AHAHAH, I got you! You admitted it! Damn you molesting pervert!"
He jumped out of that suffocating hiding place and glared suspiciously at the woman. The woman just stared back at him with an innocent look.
....Don't look at me like that. You know exactly what you did! Molesting fucking pervert.
"THERE YOU ARE!"
'Shit'
He looked behind the woman and saw the owner standing there with a bloodthirsty look. Hahaha...
"Is it too late to say sorry?"
Alex shrugged at the man. It seemed to have the opposite effect.
"ARRGGHHHH I'LL KILL YOU!!"
"Woops"
The owner pounced towards him at full speed. He coated his body with the little bit of electricity he had left before jumping to the side to avoid him. He did successfully dodge the huge fatso but that trick would only work once.
The owner was not a bull. He would not fall for the same trick twice, nor would he always charge in a straight line. He had to find a better solution and fast. He did not have any electricity anymore.
He had already overused his power today. He had used it continuosly for almost 4 hours. His fight in the store, his ability taking most of his power, then running away while he had already exhausted most of his electricity.
But it was okay. He had planned for this....hahaha, no, he was lying, he hadn't planned for this situation but conveniently, he had landed near the broken weapons.
These useless weapons would come in handy. He grabbed a blade in both his hands. In one hand he held a handle with a broken blade, but it had a jagged edge and that was good enough for him. In the other he just held a blade.
The handle was gone, but he didn't care. Red blood started running down the blade and staining the floor. The owner looked at this scene and started laughing.
"Hahahaha, you crazy brat! I like your guts! If I had met you in any other situation then I would have made you a part of our group. Too bad you are my enemy and I have to kill ya!"
Alex just laughed.
"Hahahaha! I would not have joined your filthy group even if you fell on your knees and licked my shoes! Bring it on, fatso! I ain't scared of ya!"
"AHHHH, YOU DAMN BRAT!!"
