After half a hour of just walking about I stumbled upon a worn comic book shop. It looked old and kinda run down but it had a certain charm to it. Looking through all the comics I thought about getting a batman one to occupy myself with later.

Walking to the desk I noticed that the boy behind it couldn't be older than 16 he had brown floppy hair which was held back by a red bandana, he had a very serious look on his face like something retrieval would happen soon he had dark brown eyes that made it look like he could see all your secrets.

Walking through the isles of comics I wonders where I could find a batman comic with the joker in it. Because for some strange reason I just loved bad guys in comics, joker was my favourite batman villain, green goblin was my favourite spider man villain, avengers Loki, X Men Gambit because in his own was he's a villain I love all villains something that people thought was weird about me.

Looking through the racks of Comice I noticed a boy coming towards me he had black hair that hung by his ears and dark blue eyes he was also very tanned.

He would look at me then the boy at the register like he was asking him something about me.

"You know staring is rude and if your going to stand there you could at least tell me where I can find a batman first appearance of joker. Or are you going to stare at that all day to?" I asked fed up with all the staring I mean seriously it's creepy so don't do it.

"Are you new around here" the bandana kid asked looking suspicious

"Yeah just moved back I lived here when I was little but I moved to California when I was six with my dad, but now I'm back so...yeah" I explained

"You should be careful there's a lot of bad things around here" the black hairs one said

"Yeah anyway do you know where I can find a Batman with the first appearance of the Joker?" I said trying to find the comic so I could leave

"Yeah just a minutes and ill get it for you" the black hairs one said

While he was getting my comic the bandana one kept looking at me which was really starting to scare me.

"Here is your comic that will be a buck fifty" the guy said handing over the comic

"Sure thanks" I said giving him the money

"Wait take this as well, it may even save your life" the bandana dude said giving me another comic with a blood crazed vampire on it

"Why would I need this" I asked not believing a mystical creature would come and get me one late night

"You've seen the lost posters right? A lot of kids go missing around here and aren't found we'd hate for you to be one of the unfound kids, this will show you how to survive in the murder capital of the world" he explained not making any sense for half of that.

"Ok thanks and ill keep a eye out for any big band blood suckers" I sarcastically replied walking away from the crazy teens.

I found Thorn playing on the deck with a little kid who looks at least 6. Walking over To theme I observed the little boy, he had dark brown hair that looked darker with all the dirt in it he was really small and pale he had lovely warm chocolate brown eyes that had a happy spark to theme.

"Hi do you like him" I asked the small boy in a quite voice as to not scare him

He looked startled that I was talking to him let alone being nice to him. He meekly nodded to my question and started to fiddle with his fingers that had stopped petting Thorns grey coat.

"His names Thorn, you can play with him if you like I don't mind and he seems to like you" I suggested to him hopping to make him relax around me and stop being so nervous.
