You sighed content as you pulled your earbuds out. You sat on a park bench, taking in the sounds of the night. They always kept you calm after (work/school/gym/etc.) You then heard yelling and what sounded like a little girl crying. You quickly ran towards the sound, seeing a little girl being picked on by none other than the Purple Dragons. Those bastards. "Hey!!" You yelled, causing their attention to divert from the little girl and onto you. You made a motion with your head, signaling for the little girl to run away, which she did. "Damnit!" One of the members yelled after realizing the little girl had gotten away. You were already in a fighting position, even though you only really knew how to take down maybe two of these thugs. Yet there were about 10 present. But you weren't going to let them know that. You fought as much as you could, but in the end, you were a bit bloody and pinned to a wall by your neck. Your hands were grabbing at the one around your throat, thankfully they weren't squeezing too hard yet. "You realize she had Girl Scout money." The one holding you growled. "Over a couple hundred bucks." Another sighed out, before grinning at you evilly. "But hey, you'll be more fun, won't you pretty thing." You assumed the leader said that, as you were thrown to the ground. You closed your eyes, bracing yourself for the cold hands of the purple dragons. They never came though. Instead, you heard a couple of grunts and the sounds of punches. You opened your eyes to see a boy about your age, taking on all the purple dragons. And winning. After the last one was taken out, the boy turned and looked at you, smirking. He had reddish brownish hair, that was a bit spiked up. His eyes were an electric green that drew you in. "Ya were doing pretty good," he forced your hand in his, picking you up quickly. "Ya know, before you got ya ass handed to ya." He smirked, chuckling a bit. You huffed a bit. Standing in front of your hero in red, you realized the guy was definitely taller than you. He was attractive. And you had a feeling he knew it. You chuckled a bit. "Shut up, I could've handled them eventually!" He scoffed, "oh yeah? Before or after ya got raped?" "Hey! You yelled, going to hit him. He caught your arm, pulling you a bit closer to him. "Stay still a sec, will ya.." He whispered, touching your lip. "Yup ya busted ya lip there. What in the hell were ya even thinking taking on these ass heads?!" His voice growing angry, yet his hand staying as gentle as ever. "There was a little girl.. I'd rather it be me than her." You whispered, a bit ashamed by your recklessness. He sighed, pulling on the red bandana that was wrapped around his eyes. He gently dabbed your lip with it, causing you to flinch. "Well... Ya better go get that cleaned up, ya hear?!" He grabbed your phone from your pocket/purse and typed something in. "Here." He handed it back, as he began to walk away. He stopped. "Oh yeah, what's ya name there ya dare devil?" You smiled at the nickname. "(Y/n). What about you hot head?" Before you could get a response, he was gone. You looked down at your phone, seeing a new contact by the name 'Raphael.' You smiled a bit, before changing the name to 'Raphie ❤️.' That fire brain was going to be on your mind the rest of the night, you thought as you jogged back to your apartment.
