After one of the henchmen mentioned that he could not see the boy's body, the leader's eyes started to think and ponder. Just as he was about to instruct his henchmen, he heard siren coking from behind him. Without any hesitation, he leapt from the roof and ran away from the scene.
Meanwhile, underneath in one of the trash dumps, a small head is seen emerging after fifteen minutes after the men had left. Moving his head left and right, the boy discovers that the men had left him, and sighs in relief. He picks up his body, sniffs it, and starts to heave in disgust.
Without any further notice, he climbs up from the trash dump, and shakes his body to remove any wet trash on him. The young boy picks up his stuff that he had hidden there previously, and saunters his way to his home.
The journey takes him an hour to complete, mostly due to the fact that he had to take the longer route in order to not disturb his neighbours. Although cumbersome, he did get to enjoy the scenery present to himself. The quiet, bright stars seem to shine and light his way through the alley, small taps being heard as the night-time critters start to emerge in order to scavenge food, and the smell of fresh, home-cooked meals wafting from the nearby buildings stoking his appetite, each with their own personalities.
While musing to himself, he stopped his admiration as he reached his destination: a quaint, two-storey villa with a detached parking spot, complete with its own swimming pool and garden, as well as an outdoor cooking area and small animal garden. Even though it looked homely and comforting from the outside, no one except him knew that the only occupant of the house was himself.
This was not always the case, as this house once had a lively, bustling family, consisting of himself and his parents. They were neither poor nor rich, yet still managed to get themselves a comfortable lifestyle. Yet this all came crashing down suddenly when he was 10 years old.
The day started ordinary enough, except it was a special for the young boy. It was his 10th birthday, and he was a bundle of joy as he was seen bouncing around from wall to wall, interrogating his parents what his present was. All his mom and dad did was just smiled and shushed their mouths.
When the evening came, the whole family sat together, and started to sing happy birthday to the young boy. When it came to tbe ti.e of his gifts, his parents told him that they had two gifts for him. The first one was obviously the latest X-Station 10 from Sonysoft, with the complete Grand Tourisia collection.
When the young boy asked what his second gift was, all his, mother did was pat her stomach, and say "Sweetie, you're going to be a big brother."
Shocked, he stood agape for ten seconds before running around yelling that he was going to be a big brother soon, with his father smiling from ear to ear.
Yet before he could even enjoy his gifts, a sudden bright light stopped it.
