Elio.

Elio looked at her, confused.

"What do you mean? How do you not know who you are?" Elio gave the strange girl a curious look.

"I-I don't know." The girl frowned, rubbing her temples. "I forgot everything. All I remember is that my name is Selene."

"Well Selene, I'm Elio. I want to help you but maybe the streets aren't the best place."

"Why's that?" She inquired.

"Well the Team Skull grunts will be here any se-" As if on cue a group of five grunts, including Beat and the other one from before, charged at them from the other side of the street.

"Who are those guys?"

"Bad guys, they want to hurt you so just get behind me." Elio told her quickly, standing in front of the girl.

"Look at this yo! The guy found a girl, who's this girl though. I've never seen her before!" One of the grunts said.

"Yeah, she looks like she's got money. Let's rob her yo!" Another grunt shouted, they moved forward, now their attention was on Selene.

"Yo guys, here comes the boss!" A grunt cried from the docks of the Marina, where two grunts were robbing a man. Elio looked to the sea, he saw a boat spray-painted black speeding forward. The grunts all backed away from Selene and Elio and ran to the docks, standing in a single file line. They all looked terrified.

"The boss? I'm guessing he isn't much nicer." Selene said.

"Unfortunately he's much worse. From what I've heard, Guzma is a crazy killer." Elio agreed. The boat pulled into port and the leader of Team Skull jumped off, laughing. His eyes were bloodshot and beat all around in his eyeballs. He looked like he had way too much coffee in the morning.

He had a purple S tattooed on both of his arms, along with a golden watch on his right arm. He was wearing a white and a black bracelet on his left wrist. Guzma's white hair was a mess, sticking up in random places. Although what was odd was that on the sides of his head was black hair.

Resting in his hair was golden framed glasses, one of the lenses looked like the Team Skull grunt's hats. There was a golden S attached to a golden chain around his neck. The chain rest against a white shirt, he wore a black jacket with another S on the back of it. He finished the clothing with bagged black pants and white shoes. In his right hand was a machete, sharp and stained red.

Elio noticed Beat fiddling with his boombox until a song came on, matching the menacing tone the leader gave off.

"It's destruction in human form, your boy Guzma!" Guzma walked forward towards the man the grunts had attacked before he had arrived. Then Guzma stabbed him right between the ribs, the man said nothing as Guzma pried the bloody weapon from the man and kicked him. The man didn't move. Guzma laughed manically at the sight, like it was a comedy routine.

"So where is she..." Guzma scanned the area, locking eyes on Selene. "So here's the Faller. Alright kid, you're coming with me." Guzma turned to his grunts and glared at them, "Well. Go get her you fools!" He barked, the grunts all ran forward, they all look absolutely terrified, Elio almost felt bad for them.

"You're not taking Selene!" Elio said, putting his foot down and spreading his arms to protect her. The grunts stopped and Guzma growled, stepping forward.
