You tightened the grip that you had on your bag and went to look back to the clad white skeleton only to jump back seeing him so close. He grinned and pushed you out into the open making all eyes turn to you...

"NYEH HEH HEH it's a Human, Hel-" you quickly ran off albeit you wanted to say hi and act like a normal human being your anxiety had gotten the best of you and thus you look off as fast as your sore body could take you, you flew down stairs with Gremlin in follow running just about slower than you were to see where you heading.

You ran out of the building and back into the streets, you ran long enough for you to feel safe then settled for a slow walk for a bit. You looked around to see which area you were in, Gremlin trotting next to you was also a bit curious, your thoughts wondered to the Skeleton with the gash and started to wonder why the others couldn't see him.

'Maybe he's a ghost?' You snorted lightly and turned left down into another rotten street, not noticing a shadow following you or the fact that Gremlin had hissed and jumped onto your shoulder. 'Well it could be possible I mean he was a mere few metres away from childish boy...what was his name again? Sam? No Sans like comic sans' you smiled before waving away Gremlins paw that was tapping your face for attention.

"Not now Gremlin" you pat her head and continued walking until you heard the grey cat hiss at the noise behind you, you went to turn your head but you were quickly pushed to the wall and got a waft of alcohol breath, something you knew too well. In the hurry of the moment Gremlin had jumped off onto the ground and started to hiss and growl threatening towards the drunken slob.

"Eh you look pretty beaten up and sore" He took a long sniff at the corner of your neck "how about I take you somewhere safe and make you feel better" he snickered as his hands roamed your body. "Gremlin!" At the call of her name, the grey cat jumped onto your shoulder and scratch the mans face making him back off "fucking Bitch!" He shouted in rage and lunged making your instincts kick in. Literally. You had swung your leg around faster then he lunged and hooked him square on the face successfully knocking him out, but you didn't want the chance for him to wake up and try that again.

'Again with the running' you want nothing more then to collapse and die from exhaustion, 'ugh suck it up (y/n), you've had worse' "HELP!" An old sounding voice yelled making you stop and turn towards the sound thinking it was just your imagination playing tricks on you.

"PLEASE HELP ME!" There it was again, you followed the panicking voice with a quick walking pace and hid behind a trash bin and saw an old man with an equally old bloodhound getting tormented by some kids each probably around 10 to 13. Anger took control over you as you stepped out from behind the bin and glared at the brats, "oi, leave the man alone!" You growled, Gremlin sensing your dislike fluffed up her fur and growl menacing towards the kids.

"Piss off lady this is none of your business" one of them laughed before turning back to the elderly man, "well I'm going to make it my business if you keep bullying him" you sneered in walked to them slowly 'how dare they, what gives them the right to think that they can look down on people!' You think in clear rage.

The kids back off a bit before the one how looks the oldest out of the group stayed forward, smirking "what are you gonna do, Bitch?" He remarked dripping with cockiness. That was the last straw! You closed your eyes, looked down then slowly raise your head tilting it to the side cracking it loudly, something you saw your father do once, and looked at the kids calming standing up straight trying to look intimidating.

It was working, the once cocky ring leader looked somewhat nervous "what am I going to do about it?" You emphasising the I a bit. A smirk crawled forcefully on your cracked lips before shifting your head up to look down on them "you wouldn't like to find out"You rumbled deeply as you could and walked menacingly at them making the kids run off yelping in fear.

You stopped running just after where the senior was and looked back in concern "Sir a-are you okay?" You stuttered nervously, talk about mood swings. The man stared in shock before a gentle smile graced his wrinkly face "I'm fine, thank you for chasing them off they've been at that for a week now" gingerly the senior spoke, "a week? What makes people think they can treat others like that" you fumed before memories of what you dad did to you when you spoke out .

"Ah, I'm sorry I-I didn't mean to s-s-speak out l-like that-t.." You fumbled over your words sounding really stupid
