Most have never even seen the sky. It is covered by a large layer of black dust, as is the entire planet. Floating dust in the atmosphere causes plants to fail to grow, lungs to choke, and the weak to die. Therefore, intelligent beings took refuge in dome cities. Surrounded on all sides by a transparent, air-permeable, dust-retaining coating, these were cities that looked like snow globes.

The city was definitely bigger than you might think looking at it from above, because most of it was underground. The buildings underground were shaped like columns, which not only served as housing, but also as supports to keep the surface from collapsing.

The underground city was divided into two more layers, upper and lower. Lower was famous for its poverty. It was the place where the poorest part of the city lived. You can't say that it was dark and black there, but there was definitely a gloomy atmosphere there. The stuffy air stood still. The smells of alcohol and dirt combined to create an unpleasant stench to which the inhabitants had become accustomed. The sound of breaking glass and arguing came from all directions.

In one of the narrow and dark alleys of this gloomy city, a boy was leaning against the wall. The gloomy climate didn't seem to affect him. He was happy like an idiot holding a toy in his hands, a water game. It was a small green box filled with water where you need to put rings on the pillars.

Biting his tongue in concentration, he tried to arrange all the circles on the two piles that were there. Nine circles were already filled, and he only had the last one left. He pressed the button, the ring flew up, touched the pillar, brushed against it, but unfortunately it didn't get stuck on it, it just fell down.

The boy, already sweating on his forehead, pressed the button again to raise the ring again. He tilted the toy so that the ring landed where it was supposed to, and from what he could see, the ring was about to impale on the peg. He closed his eyes for a few seconds, preparing himself for a surprise.

After a moment he opened them, looked at the toy for the last ring, and saw this particular one lying with the other rings hanging on a pillar.

Boy - Yes! I did it! I did it!

Joyful, he jumped with his hands held high.

Boy - Yeeeaaah!!

He continued to make movements that indicated his happiness. He spun around and jumped on his feet a few more times, moving his whole body.

Boy - I'll show it Felyy! Hehe, I won again!

Smiling widely, he was already thinking about his sister's face when she saw his achievement.

Again he leaned against the wall of the narrow and dark alley, looked at the water game in his right hand, his pupils dilated in surprise, and his smile instantly changed to a half-moon signifying sadness. He fell to his knees with tears in his eyes.

Boy - W..w..why!?

All the rings that were on the pillar a moment ago were again at the bottom of the box. His sudden jumps stirred the contents of the toy, causing the circles to change their positions.

His sadness, however, did not last too long, because after a while he clapped his hands, jumped up from his knees and clenched his fists saying,

Boy - Again!

His eyes were full of determination, even though he was playing a simple children's game...

Again, he leaned against the cold wall, which he could feel even wearing a black sweatshirt, and underneath it, a red T-shirt with a print of a llama eating ice cream. His loose and comfortable pants were black, and he wore red sports sneakers. The black hair growing on his head was tousled and tossed in different directions. And quite a standout element for us is a black horn growing on the right side of his skull, and two fangs in his teeth. The boy was of average height with a predisposition to further body development. He was quite pretty, and cute, but with his constant smile, he also looked like an idiot.

He started to work with his toy again until he heard footsteps approaching him; in the plain and empty alley the echo was quite loud [https://img.wattpad.com/da9049ec9a2c9f77c7932cbf6a00dafca0cdecac/68747470733a2f2f73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f776174747061642d6d656469612d736572766963652f53746f7279496d6167652f4f5942524e7378746b6f443575773d3d2d313330363336333438372e3137336165363137653262353261396634383534363634323539302e706e67?s=fit&w=1280&h=1280]

He started to work with his toy again until he heard footsteps approaching him; in the plain and empty alley the echo was quite loud. He looked towards the sound and saw a man with a hooded head enter the alley.

Upon approaching it, the boy noticed that he had bunny ears. He was a skinny werebeast with an ugly complexion, about 30 years old. He didn't look or smell the best, but that wasn't unusual in this part of town.

Bunny - Do you have anything?

He stood uncertainly in front of the boy. His voice was hoarse and quiet.

Boy - Yeah

The boy did not care about his appearance. He put the toy game in his pocket, then reached into the other one on the opposite side of his sweatshirt and pulled out a small vial with a yellow liquid inside. It was a small, narrow, no more than 5 cm high glass container with a screw cap. It fit easily in the hand.

The boy handed the vial to the stranger, and at that time Bunny handed him the previously counted paper money.

The boy accepted the money and put it in his trouser pocket. After taking the vial, without saying anything else, the drug addict walked away a few steps when-

??? - Stop! Hands up and don't move!

Two men, whose uniforms meant they were city guards, ran into the alley. They held weapons that could be compared to pistols. One of them looked like a half-bear, and the other was covered with red scales, similar to a lizard.

Bunny - Shit!? They always let us off, why now they decided to act?

The man with the bunny ears looked surprised and terrified. Usually the guards pretended not to see the illegal sales, but this time, unfortunately, they decided to act.

Boy - Eh, what's going on?

However, the boy did not seem so smart and intelligent to feel the danger. He looked as if he had no idea what was going on and why the guards who were running towards them were pointing their guns at them.

Bunny - Run or we'll go to jail!

The man noticed the boy's indecision, so he helped him make a decision. Immediately after that, he began running away from the guards through the narrow alley. The boy, who still didn't seem to understand the situation, did as he was told and also started running away.

Boy - But why are they chasing us?

As he ran, he crossed his arms, which would have been difficult for a normal person to run, and began to think deeply about the situation.

Bunny - How come why? Because we both have illegal substances, you trade them and I buy!

Boy - Illegal?

He asked as if he did not understand the statement at all, only to open his mouth wide after a moment and scream,

Boy - Wait a minute! So the yellow stuff is illegal?

He directed the question to the man running beside him, who wasn't sure if it was a serious question. But the boy's face clearly indicated that he had no idea about the crime he was doing.

Bunny - Huh? Are you stupid or what!? How could you not know that!?

Boy - But nobody told me it was illegal work! I had no idea!

Bunny - You sell small vials of drug elixir, in a narrow and dark alley, to guys who hide all the time and look like me, and you didn't think this job might be illegal?!

He stared in disbelief at the boy, who looked at him with a serious expression on his face and replied,

Boy - Well, no. I did not think about it.

The drug addict's jaw dropped when he thought how much of an idiot this boy was.

Boy - But you said that yellow thing was illegal?

He quickly accepted the essence of his work and moved on to the next topic.

Bunny - Yes... and?

Boy - And it does some cool stuff, doesn't it?

He looked at the vial with glowing eyes. He smiled widely, eager to try this unfamiliar liquid.

Bunny - Hey! We have bigger problems right now!

He reminded him that they were on the chase right now and were running away from the guards.

"Bang! Bang!"

They heard two shots aimed at them, though not as loud as the guns from our world.

Bunny - Oh no, no no! I don't want to die!

You can call him a coward by the way he gets scared by the sound of bullets. There were tears of fear in his eyes and he began to shake his pants. Fortunately, neither of the two bullets hit them, and they both continued to run away.

Boy - If you're so scared, why are you running so slowly?

Bunny - Huh?

He looked at the boy running next to him with teary eyes. In contrast to him, the boy wasn't scared at all, on the contrary, he looked excited. Plus, he didn't look tired at all, while bunny was barely breathing.

Bunny - Ne.. Never mind! Damn...

He shook his head to clear unnecessary thoughts.

Bunny - Now we have to figure out how to escape them, nothing else matters.

He looked at the road ahead. They ran all the time through narrow, unfrequented streets, turning from time to time into another alley.

Bunny - Maybe...

Boy - Hey, bunny! - He called his companion.

Bunny - ?

Boy - Jump in!

Right at the turn, the boy jumped up and grabbed the balcony on the first floor. He easily dragged himself on and laid himself on the floor of the balcony so that the guards would not find him.

Bunny - Maybe you do have a brain after all.

The boy's idea wasn't so bad, so the bunny wanted to use it. He jumped up and grabbed onto the balcony, but he had trouble pulling himself up. He wasn't as fit or muscular to go in as the boy did.

From the alley from which they had just run out, the footsteps of the running guards became louder and louder. They were about to turn the corner and see the bunny struggling to get to the balcony from the first floor.

Boy - Come on, what are you waiting for?

And from the balcony you could hear a boy who did not understand that his temporary partner was definitely weaker than him.

Bunny - It's nothing. It's just one pull-up, I'll be fine.

Although he did not believe his words himself, he gathered all his strength in his arms, and, biting his teeth, he braced himself, straining his hands and shoulders.

And at the same time, the sound of the guards running inexorably fell into his ears. They were about to show up.

In five seconds,

In four seconds,

There were even veins on his forehead from the strain.

In three seconds,

He tried so hard that his face twisted into a funny expression. And the boy couldn't help but laugh.

In two seconds,

Getting closer and closer. He had already lifted his head off the balcony floor

In one second,

So close! Just a little bit!

Now.

Finally, the chase arrived, and they saw...

Guard (Bear) - Where are they?

Guard (Lizard) - I can't hear any footsteps. Damn, they couldn't just go away like that.

Bunny managed to climb onto the balcony and hide milliseconds before the chase caught up with them. He was so tired that he would like to gasp as loud as he could, so he covered his mouth, trying not to make a sound.

Both the boy and the bunny were lying side by side on the cold floor. They could hear the guards talking to each other below them.

Bear - Didn't I tell you? We just lost time.

Lizard - ... Haa ...

He needed to breathe after his co-worker scolded him.

Lizard - All these transactions must be stopped. And if command isn't doing anything about it, I'll do it myself.

Misiek - Don't be so hardworking, it will end badly for you.

They hid on the balcony of a residential building. There was a chair, some plant, a few other small shards and something that caught the boy's attention.

His eyes lit up and his mouth watered, letting you know how much he wanted this thing. If it was a dog, I'd say it started wagging its tail so hard it caused a hurricane.

He stretched his hand forward to grab this "amazing" item.

Bunny - Hey, what are you doing?

He whispered when he noticed that the boy was starting to act strangely. And then he saw what his hand was aiming at,

Bunny - Stop it, if we make any noise then...

But it was too late. The warning that was given by the man with the rabbit ears did nothing. The boy made it and...

"Come with me! Let's save the world!"

There was an robotic noise made by a child's toy.

The object that caught the boy's attention was a figurine of a man with a robotic half of the body, dog ears, a uniform and a cape that can be compared to those worn by super heroes. In other words, it was the main character from a popular comic series in this world, of which the boy was a fan.

Boy - Awesome!!!

Completely forgetting that he had just been chased by the guards, the boy stood up with the toy in his hand and began to examine it more closely, with a childish smile on his face.

Bunny - And what did you do!? Why did you press that damn button!?

The man couldn't stand his anger and, still on the floor, started to get mad at the boy.

Boy - What for? After all, buttons are for pressing! How could I not push it!?

"Come with me! Let's save the world!"

He pressed the button again. His tenacity and stupidity, as well as his mentality, looked like he was still a kid. And when he heard the super hero's voice again, his mouth watered again. The only thoughts in his head were "How cool! Amazing! I want it!".

Lizard - Fortunately, they are idiots.

The guards immediately noticed the noises and found their hiding place. This time they didn't wait for the criminals to give up, but immediately drew their guns and pointed them at them.

"Bang"

The sound of a bullet hitting the balcony fence forced Bunny to give up the argument and instead prick up his ears again fearing for his life.

Boy - Ah! I forgot! We were playing tag!

However, the boy took it as a great fun and willingly continued it. Instinctively, he grabbed a pot from the windowsill and threw it at the guards. And while the guards avoided the plant flying towards them, the boy and Bunny jumped off the balcony and continued their run.

Bunny - Damn it hurts! Jumping from the first floor is not good for my legs though! Are you okay?

Boy - You're weak! It hurts a bit when I jump from the third, but from the fourth it's already very much, I even had to sit down for a moment to stop hurting!

Bunny - HAAA?????? What is your body made of!?

Fourth floor, you could even die falling from that height, not to mention broken bones, and his legs just hurt?!

This day the drug addict will either remember forever as the strangest day of his life, or he will think that he drank some potions and all that happened was just his vivid imagination.

"Come with me! Let's save the world!"

The figurine's robotic voice rang out again.

Bunny - Leave that idiotic toy alone! Why did you even steal it!?

He hated this sound and this words, after all, they had been found by them, and if they won't be lucky now, they will be caught.

Boy - What did I steal? It was just lying there.

He held the figurine in his hand, and his mind was debating whether to take care of the toy, play tag, or argue with the guy he was running away with.

Bunny - It was lying on the balcony so it belonged to someone. Probably to a child!

Boy - Someone threw it on the street, so he probably didn't want it! And I want it, so I take it.

Bunny - It's not a street, it's a balcony!

Boy - The balcony and the street are the same! If you can reach for it, then you can reach for it!

Bunny - You're an idiot!

Boy - Right?

He crossed his arms and straightened his back.

Bunny - Don't be proud of it!

Boy - Haha!

The man had no more strength. Not only physically, but also mentally. The boy finished him off. And this idiot, like his opposite, was all cheerful and energetic. He quickly forgot about unimportant arguments and situations. He lived in the moment, enjoying it.

Bunny - Oh no! Dead end!

He was terrified of what was in front of them. Their way was blocked not by a wall, but by a gate over 3 meters high, which no normal person would be able to jump over. And there was no way to get around it. There's nothing you can do about it, they'll be caught. Resigned, the werebeast looked down at the ground, knowing he was about to go to jail. So they're stuck...or not?

Boy - What are you waiting for? Come here!

He heard the boy's voice and looked next to him, the boy wasn't there, so he turned the other way, but he wasn't there either. Finally, he looked straight ahead and held his gaze on him.

Bunny - How the hell did you get there?

Bunny saw him on the other side of the gate. He looked around, but saw no passage that led to the other side of the fence.

Bunny - How did you get there!?

Boy - I jumped.

He replied as if it was something normal.

Bunny - How did you jump over? It is over 3 meters high!

Boy - I just jumped! You are so annoying! You don't want to go through it, then don't go through it! I'm going!

The boy was not a patient one, and the fact that he was supposed to wait for a guy he didn't even know only intensified his reluctance to stand still. He turned and started walking away.

Bunny - What? No! Wait! Help me!

In a pleading voice, the man called him to stay.

Boy - Why? It's not my fault you're so weak.

He thought a man should take care of himself, and, well, the guy had bunny ears, and rabbits jump high, right? At least that was what he had in mind.

Bunny - It's not me, there's something wrong with you!

The boy made a confused face at the news that something was wrong with him, and after seeing it, the man immediately corrected himself to convince him to help.

Bunny - I mean! Not that you're weird, but not everyone is as strong as you! Definitely not me!

Boy - Felyy and Trix could also jump over this fence.

Bunny - Okay! I'm weak, but that doesn't mean you have to leave me! We're in this together, aren't we? So should we help each other?

Boy - .....

He looked confused and a little goofy again. He didn't know whether to agree or not.

And then the guards ran into the alley. They were getting closer to the man who, without the boy's intervention, would not be able to escape.

Bunny - I'll pay you, okay? I'll pay you, just help me!

Boy - ....

It's hard to tell if he was thinking about whether or not to agree, or if he just had to process the sentence in his mind for so long to understand it. After a while he smiled and,

Boy - Deal! I will buy myself a lot of kebabs haha!

Happy, he ran to the fence, jumped and easily, leaning on one hand on the edge of the gate, flew to the other side. After jumping down, he stood next to Bunny and put his thumbs in his hands, saying,

Boy - Okay! you can do it! I'm cheering you on! I will keep my fingers crossed for you!

Bunny - What?

Boy - What? I was cheering you on, wasn't I?

He tilted his head, not knowing what he had done wrong.

Bunny - I meant more for you to climb the fence and give me your hand. It was about physical help, not mental help!

The man couldn't believe he had to explain something so obvious.

Boy - Aaaa.... That makes sense. And I won't have to wait for you! You are smart though!

He smiled at his own stupidity.

Bunny - No... you're the moro- Wha!

Suddenly, the boy threw him over his shoulder, something the drug addict hadn't expected.

And even with the Bunny on his shoulder, the boy nimbly jumped up, catching the top of the fence with one hand, kicked off the wall with his feet and jumped over the gate without any problems.

If you come across this story on Amazon, it's taken without permission from the author. Report it.

"Bang, bang"

And behind them, they heard the shots of approaching guards.

Bear - How did they jump over that fence!?

They stopped in front of the gate, seeing only the backs of fleeing people. They were unable to cross to the other side, and therefore, continue the chase.

Lizard - Rather how strong the boy was. He jumped over it carrying someone with him.

The guard grabbed the fence and looked up at its height.

Lizard - Who is he? I've never heard of a race capable of that in this city.

Bear - don't ask me. Let's go back, we won't do anything here.

The red-scaled guard stared at the high fence for a moment longer. The escapees were no longer visible. The pursuit ended in defeat.

And back to the boy and Bunny,

Bunny - Oh no! It hurts, it hurts so much!

Boy - ?

He looked at the bunny, not knowing what it was about.

Bunny - I've been hurt! You see!?

He pointed to his cheek, which had a red scratch left there by the bullet fired by the guards.

Boy - It's just a scratch.

Bunny - But it hurts! It would hurt you too! Ah! Look! Look! It's blood! I'm bleeding!

Boy - It's just a drop.

Bunny - Ouch! It hurts! It hur- OW! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?

Even more pain appeared on his other cheek as the boy clenched his fist and unexpectedly punched him in the face!

Boy - You're annoying! You're just complaining all the time!

Bunny - How can I not complain when I was hurt!

Boy - Such a wound doesn't hurt!

Bunny - It hurts! If you got it, you too- OW!

And once again, the boy punched him in the face.

Boy - What hurts more, the scratch or my punch?

Bunny - Your punch!

He screamed with tears in his eyes.

Boyfriend - And I hit you very weakly, so it's impossible for this wound to hurt you!

Bunny - You are much stronger than the average person, your weak punches are not weak at all!

Boy - And you're complaining again! Should I punch you again?

Bunny - Hum... ....................No. It's fine now.

Boy was terrifyingly strong, and Bunny knew it. After thinking about it for a moment, he decided it wasn't worth arguing with him.

Bunny - Okay. We escaped from the guards, so we can go now. Let's just go our separate ways.

He didn't want to stay with this overly strong moron any longer, he wanted to get away from him.

Boy - And the money?

He remembered something.

Bunny - Money? Ah... I said I'd pay....

But he said it on the spur of the moment. The truth is, he's pretty poor himself, and giving someone else money won't end well for him.

Boy - If you lied to me, I'll beat you.

Bunny - What? No! No! Of course I didn't lie to you, I'll give you the money. Eh.... let's see....

Being beaten by this damn strong boy would definitely not end well for him. No need to think about it, paying is a much better option in this case.

He took his wallet out of his pocket and looked inside. He sighed as he saw how little savings he had left, and some of it he would have to pay.

Bunny - So....

Boy - Thanks! And bye!

Bunny - Eh?!

But something happened that he didn't expect. The boy, without waiting for Bunny to take out and give him money, just grabbed his wallet and took it!

Bunny - Wait! I wasn't going to give you everything!

As soon as the boy grabbed his wallet, he started to run away. Admittedly, it didn't look like he was running away, he just split up like they were supposed to.

Bunny started to run after him but,

The boy was moving away from him twice as fast as the man was running. Finally, he ran out of breath and stopped, not believing his eyes. The boy was much faster than when they were running away from the guards. He ran slower just to keep up with Bunny. The man understood this and gave up, and having lost his savings, he fell to his knees on the cold concrete ground in the empty and dark alley.

Bunny - Could this day get any worse?

He sighed, exhausted and unable to move.

************************************

Boy - Hahaha! How fun is today! First, I played a water game, played tag, found this super hero and even got money! Hahaha!

He was all joyful. He had fun and enjoyed everything that happened to him.

Boy - I'll buy the best kebabs! Hihi!

He had already reached a busier street. Around it were blocks of flats, which were columns reaching high up to the ceiling, and in the middle of these huge columns, there were bridges and larger slabs of concrete ceiling. It was there that the upper layer of the underground was located. On the lowest floors of the columns there were a few shops, and the place where the boy was heading, i.e. his favorite kebab shop.

He walked over to the door and was about to go through it, but it swung open by itself from the inside, and a couple of young men came out of the building. To whom, one could say out of politeness, but it had nothing to do with politeness, the boy gave way. They laughed as if they were in a good mood. And it's worth mentioning that they looked pretty menacing.

The boy, not paying attention to them, entered inside smiling from ear to ear.

Boy - Kebamister! Kebamakio! I want the most expensive kebabs you have! Uh...?

The smile from his face disappeared. He noticed an elderly man with a dog's face, floppy ears, a tail and all over patched brown and white fur sitting on the floor. He was the owner of a fast food restaurant. And next to him, a young girl, also looking like she works at the store, applies ice to his forehead to relieve his pain.

Makio (employee) - Fi? You're here to buy something.... I'm sorry, but the kebab shop will be closed for today.

The young woman replied, bending her dog ears in sadness. She also had a narrow muzzle and a furry tail, both of which looked like a dog's, and was covered all over with light brown fur. She was a werebeast, more specifically a weredog.

Fi- What happened? Why is Kebamister sitting on the floor?

Makio - Um....

Kebamister - Nothing happened Fi, I just have debt problems, it's nothing.

The old man answered, who, like the girl, was a weredog.

Fi - Debt? Do you have any debt?...

He just thought of something that made his face look scared and guilty.

Fi - You had to borrow money because sometimes I don't pay you for kebabs!? It's my fault!

Kebamister - No! Fi, this has nothing to do with you. Serving you free meals wouldn't put me in debt. It's all because of higher taxes. Supposedly, in a few cities, factories with injections had breakdowns and money had to be raised to repair them. As soon as they are fixed, everything will be back to normal, so you don't have to worry.

Makio - Grandpa, are you sure Fi understands what taxes are?

Kebamister - Ah, you may be right,

Thinking about it, the old man looked at Fi, but Fi, proudly, replied,

Fi- I know! Garef recently yelled at me to get a job and start paying for myself because she's sick of spending money on brats and taxes are going up. And then she explained to me what it was. Although I had no idea she was spending money on any children, she always said she hated them.

Makio - Fi, you and Feli are this brats.

Fi - Really!? ..... Well, whatever.

He resigned himself to his fate of being an unwanted brat.

Fi - And those guys who hit Kabamister are the same guys who just left here?

Makio - Yes... Wait a minute! Fi! Where are you going!?

As soon as it was confirmed who was responsible for the old man's injury, Fi turned and started running for the exit.

Fi - Where? I'm going to beat them! I can't buy a kebab because of them! And they pissed me off!

Makio - What? No! It'll only make things worse! Wait!

However, the boy did not listen and ran out of the building.

Fi - ASSHOLES WHO HIT THE KEBAMISTER!!! WHERE ARE YOU!!!??

He shouted at the top of his voice, attracting the attention of all passers-by. However, not everyone cared and most returned to their previous activities. In these parts, and especially on this street, Fi was quite a famous person and everyone had heard of his antics at least once.

He looked around the area, paying attention to all the passers-by, but nowhere did he see the ones he was looking for. He turned around to see if they were behind him, looked up for them on the ceiling, and finally looked under his shoes. They were nowhere. He put his hand to his chin, pretending to think about something when in fact he already knew the answer to what he wanted to do next.

Fi - They must have gone somewhere..... Okay! I'll be lucky!

And when he said he will be lucky, he meant he'd run in a random direction and maybe he'd find them.

Makio - Fi wait! Let it go!

Behind him, a young employee ran out of the store, and seeing that the boy was starting to run somewhere, she decided to follow him. She wanted to stop him, but Fi was too fast for her, in the blink of an eye he was far enough away from her that even her voice wouldn't reach him.

He looked around in all directions, still running ahead, suddenly something flashed in his eye. He stopped. He took a few steps back and looked down the narrow street between the buildings.

Fi - There you are!

He smiled as his search was successful.

He witnessed a rather unpleasant scene. The same men he met at the entrance to the store were bullying a young man who looked to be in his 20s. The red hair of the person lying on the ground was all disheveled. Likewise, his clothes, due to constant punches and kicks, were dirty. He lay curled up, his hands holding his head to protect it, tears flowing from his eyes from the pain.

Attacker - Haha! You see? And it was good to oppose us? If we want something, it is given to us. Do you get it?

The attacker crouched beside him and grabbed his messy hair, lifting his head up. The victim twisted his mouth in pain and made a squeaky sound, then replied,

Victim - Y....yes....I..I I understand I'll give you, w.. what you want, just please let me go.....

Attacker - Haha!

He let go of his hair, causing the victim's head to drop and hit the ground. The man stood up and, with an ominous grin, kicked him again.

Attacker - Look, it took a few hits and-..!

He didn't manage to finish the sentence, because his jaw was bent under the influence of a strong blow, and he flew a few meters back, rolling on the floor. Distracted and stunned, he opened his eyes wide, trying to figure out the situation. He looked at the place where he had been standing a moment ago and saw an unfamiliar person there. A boy with black hair and a horn. He had just hit him. Everyone there was stunned by this sudden event, and in an instant they prepared for battle.

Attacker 2 - Who are you!?

One of the 6 men called to the unexpected appearance of the boy.

Fi - You guys hit the Kebamister, right!?

The boy stood between them, not far from the lying victim, although he did not seem to care about him.

Attacker 2 - What, what the hell are you talking about!?

Fi - That you hit Kebamister!

They were confused, not knowing what the stranger was talking about, and that only fueled their anger and willingness to start a fight.

Attacker 2 - What? Who's the-

Attacker - It doesn't matter!

The one Fi had hit got up from the ground and, putting his hand to the sore spot, looked furious, shouted to stop this senseless chatter.

Attacker - Who is he? And who the fuck cares! You saw what he did, right!? So you have to get it into his head not to mess with us!!! Get him guys!

At this signal, the five of them lunged at Fi with their bare fists. Their morale and self-confidence were quite high considering that the boy was alone and a few of them. Thinking of an easy win, they didn't seem to try or strain themselves too much.

The first of them lunged at him with his fists, trying to punch him in the face, he landed a punch, but Fi dodged it, catching his arm at the same time. After catching it, he threw it behind him, throwing his opponent's entire body backwards. Behind him, he heard the man hit the wall.

Immediately after, so that the boy didn't have time to react, the next one wanted to kick him in the stomach, but Fi jumped on the previously knocked down attacker, bounced off the wall, so high that his legs were at the head of the guy who wanted to kick him and knocked him down a shoe in his face, thus the second of the 6 opponents was knocked down.

The next two attacked together, one aiming for the stomach and the other for the head. Fi deftly dodged both blows by jumping to his left side, and once he was on the left side of one of the men, he punched him in the face and sent him to the ground. The second villain, who was further to the right, seeing how his friend was being hit, aimed at the stomach of the boy who was unable to move at the moment. But while Fi had no time to dodge, he wasn't about to let himself be hit either. He stopped the blow with his left hand. And the one who felt the pain from the blow was not the boy, but the striking man, whose hand ached as if he had hit a hard wall instead of his hand.

While Fi's left hand stopped the blow, his right aimed at the attacker's stomach. Thanks to the strong blow, the man grabbed his stomach and curled down. Fi took advantage of this and kicked him in the head, knocking him to the ground.

Two assailants remained in the alley, still on their feet. Seeing how strong is the boy they had to face and how their colleagues fell one by one, they became nervous.

They grabbed weapons, one of them had a knife and the other had a metal baseball bat. The boy didn't care at all and ran to them to finish them off as well as the others.

The first to make a move was the man with the knife. He aimed at the boy trying to stab him, but Fi dodged the attack by dodging to the side. After that, the attacker tried to make the same move and cut him, but the boy ducked nimbly avoiding the attack, and along with straightening up, he launched an attack with his leg.

Quite a painful attack, because it hit the attacker's sensitive spot, and those who saw it certainly felt the pain.

He dropped the knife from his hand, clutched at the sore spot, and, trying not to look weak, held back tears.

Attacker - Hey! It's a low blow!

Even social trash like these scoundrels had rules. Fi is worse in this one, he doesn't follow any rules.

Fi - What do I care? I'm here to beat you, no matter what!

Enraged, the last of the six attackers, he aimed a metal bat at the boy's head, who easily dodged this blow, and wanted to throw another blow himself.

Fi aimed at the head, but the boy was quite surprised because this time it was the opponent who avoided the blow by jumping back.

The attacker aimed at the boy's stomach, and when the boy dodged the blow, he swung again, landing another hit, thus continuing his uninterrupted attack.

Again and again, Fi kept dodging the blows until finally he was led against the wall and couldn't jump back to dodge. All he had to do was wait for his opponent to strike.

The attacker smiled wickedly at the thought that he had already won. He swung the stick with all his might.

At the same time, Fi did something unexpected. His right hand, more specifically the skin, turned black. As black as coal. And directly with this hand he stopped the attack of the metal stick.

Horror flashed in the assailant's eyes as he saw his strong, heavy, metal stick bent by the blow to the boy's hand.

And while he couldn't believe his eyes, Fi prepared his left hand to strike. And it was only luck that the attacker managed to avoid this blow. He lost the strength in his legs in terror and fell backwards.

And while he was on the ground, he crawled his arms back and forth a couple of times and...

Attacker - W-w...wait! You came to get revenge for that old man, didn't you?

Fi - Yeah, I came for this!

Attacker - If you wanted to take back the money we took from him, I'll give it to you! I'll give it to you, so-

Afraid, he pointed to the backpack that was lying against the wall, which probably contained the money taken by force. But,

Fi - I don't care about any papers! I just came to kick your ass and that's it!

Without waiting any longer, Fi ran to the man sitting on the ground and kicked him in the head. He beat them all.

However, one of them did not give up. Fi saw one of the figures get up from the ground, so to finish him off, he jumped on him and punched him in the face.

Victim - No! I am not with them!

He screamed as soon as he took the blow. The one who got up had been a kicked victim before

Fi - Ah, sorry.

Victim - Ok-k....

After a hard blow from Fi, his eyes went black, he staggered and fell to the ground, fainting.

The boy didn't care and, without remorse, turned to the recently defeated opponents. Some of them had already got up.

Attacker 2 - The boss will be angry when he hears that we were beaten by some brat.

Attacker 3 - Yeah, that's why we can't lose. Get up guys, he hasn't won yet!

They continued their attacks and Fi continued to knock them down and win. They tried to somehow oppose the strength of the boy, but they had no chance against him. It was a fruitless effort on their part.

And while Fi was putting his plan to kick their ass into action, Makio finally arrived at where he was.

She froze as she saw the scene unfolding before her.

Six severely beaten people were lying on the ground (including the victim) and another was held by the boy by the shirt and just at that moment the boy punched him in the face, causing his head to hit the wall and, like all the rest, he lost consciousness.

Makio - Fi! Stop now!

Fi - Kebamakio?

He turned towards the voice and, seeing Makio standing, was slightly surprised, but then he smiled sincerely.

Fi - I kicked 'em. Hihihi! Ah! And look,

He grabbed bag from the wall and looked inside.

Fi - They said they took your money so you got it back!

He handed Makio a black backpack, and she, as if in a trance, not knowing what to do, took the item given by the boy.

She looked around the narrow alley and sighed.

Makio - [It will cause trouble]

She thought sadly.

Makio - So you wanted to buy something to eat, right?

Fi - Yeah, but you said it was closed.

Makio - I'll make an exception for you, after all you ran to intercede for us.

Fi - Really?

The girl nodded.

Fi - Yay! Hooray!

He jumped for joy.

They returned to the place with the kebabs served, and as the girl promised, she made him 2 kebabs, at the expense of the company. He gladly took the packed meal, and as if he had forgotten everything that had just happened, he left the restaurant waving goodbye to the old man and Makio.

However, as soon as the boy left, Makio's fake smile disappeared from her face, her dog ears fell down and her tail curled up. She turned to her grandfather.

Makio - Grandpa, do you think we'll get into more trouble because of this?

He leaned back in his chair and looked up, thinking. He sighed and scratched his head with a depressed expression.

Old man - Eh, there are two options, either we are so small and unimportant that they will turn a blind eye to it, or we are so small and unimportant that they will decide to make an example of us for other debtors.

Makio - ....

Old man - But don't worry, we'll get along with them somehow.

Makio - I hope.

She replied in a worried voice.

************************************

Humming a tune under his breath, he walked a few blocks to his apartment. He stood in front of the building, quite dirty and in need of restoration, just like any lower part of the columns, where no one had done anything to them for hundreds of years. He went inside and it didn't look any better. The paint was peeling from the wall and there were cobwebs in the corners. He went up the stairs to the second floor and stood in front of the door to his apartment.

Fi - I wonder if Felyy has returned yet. I'll have to tell her what happened today hihi!

He turned the handle and saw that the door was open. He went inside. The room was dark. The blinds were drawn and no lights were on. Fi ignored it, however, and took off his shoes as always to head into the room. And then,

??? - I got you.

He felt something hard touch his back, between his shoulders.
