"Hey Kid, whatta ya doing here?" You were backed into a corner by a man in a suit and glasses. He had a gun pointed at you and 2 others behind him, you had crawled into an alleyway the night before and was craving any energy your body could create. You haven't talked in days to conserve some sort of hydration, you don't even form saliva anymore. You tiredly look at him with barely open eyes and shrug, turning around and swallow the small amount of moisture you had in your mouth. You leaned on a box and got on your knees, then on one leg, but before you could stand up your body gave out again.

"Geez, are you seeing this guys? How old is this hag anyway?" Agent 1 turns around and laughs while Agent 2 joked with him, the other kept an eye on the pile of bones behind them.

"Hey!" Agent 3 snaps at the other 2 and points at the person, they both look over to see that the soul had passed out from exhaustion.

"Shit...What do we do?" Agent 2 looks at the others puzzled and walks over to the dirty sight infront of them. Agent 3 bends down and picks up the sack of a person, walking back to the entrance of the building.

"C'mon, let's bring it to the boss."

"H3y, w4k3 ůp. 4ř3 y0ů ď34ď...?" A cold and brooding voice awakens you while an enchanting smell fills your nose, a cooked meal. You sit up abruptly and open your eyes, looking around you see a dark figure with a flame around them coming out of no where with their back turned.

"§0 y0ů 4ř3, hůńğý?" They pour food onto a plate along with a cup of water and bring it over to you, you nod your head and drool at the tantalizing sight you see before you. You haven't had this good of a meal in years, even if it was just eggs and water. They hand you the plate and watche in fascination as you scarf down the eggs at a frightening speed. They slowly hand you the water and scrunch the area where their brows should be slightly. You realize your impoliteness and embarrassingly wipe your mouth with the back of your hand and drink the water, handing them the dishes and scrunching up to hug your knees. They get up and go over to the sink.

"Č4n y0ů §p34ķ?" They turn their head so that they can see you in their peripheral vision, you nod and press your lips together.

"Y-yeah...thanks for the meal." They smirk and walk over to you, grabbing both of your wrists with one hand and pinning your arms to the wall. They get in closer to your face and scrunched their brows once more, you gulp and breath in deeply.

"Now, who are you, where'd you come from, and give me a reason why I should rip you limb from limb." Their voice grew rough in your ear as he glares at you, softly speaking while holding in your breath.

"Y/n L/n, I don't remember where I came from...and I was only where I was because I had nowhere to go and wanted some shade from the sun!" you tremble as the figure breathes down your neck, you, liked it in a weird sort of way. They smirk and back off, you sigh and rub your wrists and watch as they look at you with an indescribable expression.

"1n73r3s71ng...Y0u'v3 c0nv1nc3d m3, 1'll sp4r3 your l1fe. St4y h3r3." They walk out and lock the door, you take the time to inspect the room you were kept in. It was a basic room that you would see in home ads or corrupt "perfect family" movies like in The Truman Show. You slowly and hesitantly get down off of the bed you were on and set your weak body on the floor, you've always had trouble standing up but your amazing rest and food made it remarkablly easier. Your legs trembled as you remembered how to support your body weight, you took one measly step and put your hand on the wall, you take 2 more steps then put your hand on the doorknob.

"Maybe I can...Lets see?" You softly take your hand off of the knob, you celebrate in your head but, that celebration wasn't long lived as you got hit in the face with the door. You fall to the floor and sharply inhale in pain, the figure who walked in looked at you on the floor. They sets the bag they had with them on the bed and grabs your hand, picking you back up.

"Y0u 4lr1gh7? G37 7h47 0n. D0 wh473v3r you n33d." They brushed you off and walked back out, you wince at the stinging sensation on your left cheek and open the bag. It contained clothes and just regular hygiene products, male and female. You sigh and grab the bag, going into the tiny bathroom the room had and setting down the bag.

"Finally, a shower, after I don't know how long. It has to be at least a couple of months since I found enough money to afford a hotel room." You slide open the shower curtain and turn on the water, slipping off your dirty and tattered clothing, a tear almost coming to your eyes as the warm water runs down your body. You look down at the water and cringe, the water that washed away your dirt had turned a sewer-ish brown color and dirt chuncks were washed in with them.

"God why did I let my life get this bad..."

You finish straping on the last belt to your dark apparel of combat boots and army/spy wear, your new clothing also came with a trusty army knife and 2 gun holders. You finish styling your hair in an up-do and walk out, pouring the hygiene products on your bed, taking the bag and opening your bedroom door. The shadowing figure was waiting, leaning on the wall, they look you up and down and motions you to follow them.
