"How do I get out of this ordeal unscathed?" he pondered as he observed his stalkers through the mirror's reflection.

"Wait something looks a bit odd."

After calming himself it dawned on him when he saw the Bing member seemingly just casually observing him as he window shopped.

"What are they up to? Normally they couldn't bare their frustration and would have attacked by now."

"Why does it seem that they are so calm and collected all of a sudden? Normally I would have to be running with my tail between my legs after being in such close proximity."

He kept on looking until he saw a member of the gang that he knew he did not recognize that was short but bulky.

"Wait he appears new and why is Scarface tactically standing behind him I wonder?"

He kept on questioning his own observation.

"It looks like I finally get to see the leader and he has the muzzle on his dogs. Interesting, I am guessing this one has a brain that actually works."

"This is not looking good at the moment as it doesn't appear my usual antics will work against him."

"If that's the case I should go for the number one thing that works and just run for my damn life".

As he got ready to sprint off he noticed the smirk that started to turn into a smile on the leader's and Scarface faces and stopped where he was.

"No that's what they want me to do, " He thought as he took another look.

"It appears they have planned for me to run for some reason. If that is the case then I will have to disappoint you. Sigh .... oh well do the one thing I can do. I'll have to draw for my ace in the hole."

He turned around and smiled at the members of the Bing gang then started walking toward them. Scarface and the leader were surprised by this and looked on each other with bewilderment.

" It appears this runt has gone mad boss Fang, why else would he be walking over to face his certain demise" He stated with a puzzled tone.

As Taf walked over his smile became bigger as he saw the smirks disappearing from their faces.

" Oh, big bro Scarface how have this past month been treating you I wonder? In our past encounter I am ashamed to say I had some pressing matters I had to attend to, therefore I left without a proper greeting."

Tafari sighed as he greeted Scarface.

As he spoke Scarface was on the verge of erupting when he heard those words. This is why he hated this little brat with every fiber of his being and wanted nothing but his utter demise.

The other members heard him and were feeling no better as they drew their concealed weapons in hand.

"Brother Scarface it seems something is wrong, did I leave you the wrong Impression last time?

If so, my sincerest of apologies and about the matter of the pouches I confiscated for safe keeping.

I took the contents for my selfless act of endangering my person for its protection. You understand right big bro."

He Spouted with a cute childish smile.

" After all what are a mere 30 coins among friends."

Veins Kept popping up on Scarface as vowed he would kill this kid in his mind. Beside him, the boss Fang was calmer but he also was puzzled.

From the information he has been giving about this runt, he was said to be cunning and decisive for his age. Why is he acting like he doesn't know the meaning of death, this is truly interesting indeed.

As Scarfaces and his goons were about to rip him limb by limb, Tafari smirked.

" I see it's time for the play to start where I'm the lead and you all will be my unwilling cast," he thought. He cleared his throat and started to bellow at the top of his lungs.

" PLEASE! PLEASE! DON'T BEAT ME UP, ELDERS. I ONLY HAVE A FEW COINS THAT MY SICKLY MOM GAVE ME TO BUY SOME FOOD FOR MY POOR LITTLE SISTER. SHE HAS BEEN DEATHLY ILL FOR THE PAST WEEK. I AM BEGGING YOU AS MEN HOW COULD YOU BE THIS DESPICABLE AND CRUEL!"

The crowds that were haggling came to a stop when they saw the commotion between the gang members and the seemingly pitiful child. Seeing his desired result from the sides of his eyes he continued to shout.

"I WILL NOT GIVE YOU THE LAST COINS THAT MAMA GAVE ME EVEN IF I HAVE TO DIE. MAMA SACRIFICED TOO MUCH FOR ME AND MY BABY SIS. AFTER FATHER PASSED POOR MAMA HAS TO TRY WORKING NIGHT AND DAY JUST TO MAKE ENDS ME!!"

Scarface and the other members of the gangs were drawn back at the outburst from the runt.

"What is he spouting on about and what the hell is this about his mom?"

They didn't realize the crowd that started to form around them at that very moment.

"YOU MAY HAVE DRAWN WEAPONS BUT HELL WILL FREEZE OVER BEFORE I GIVE YOU POOR MAMA'S LAST COIN. NO NO NO...."

Tafari continued bellowed on with a determined grip on a small pouch in his hand. Then he thought " Time to wrap this up with the icing on the cake."

He stamped firmly on his big toe and tears started to flow none stop.

Murmurs started to come from the crowd as they closed in.

"These damn despicable thugs have the gall to do such an act in the open. It is not enough that they have become a plague upon our city."

" Now our poor children are being targeted". They started shouting as they saw the poor kid bawling his eyes out.

Members of the gym who were giving demonstrations came forward and gripped their fist as anger was written all over their faces.

Most citizens have been appalled by the high level of crime and wanted a means to vent all along. Then here came the spark that lit the flames.

Having just become aware of the crowd forming around them the Bing gang members became deathly pales. Fright took over their bodies as they Knew what was final occurring.

"Please calm yourself my fellow citizen." Scarface pleaded.

"This is but a mere misunderstanding I assure you. My little brother and I are just pretending that's all my brothers and sisters, please understand "

He tried explaining as he nervously backed up.

"It is time to clean some of the filth from our city and you will be first to receive the city's justice".

"Beat the shit out of them. Not one will be left standing. If they leave it should be them crawling like the bugs and pest they are."

The leader of the gym shouted as he headed the charge of the enraged mob.
