I sit on an empty train at midnight. On one end is a sleeping old woman. Near the middle is a young woman and a dirty young man hitting on her. I sit on the far end, quietly watching the couple. The man stumbles over his words, I'm pretty sure he's drunk. The girl looks uncomfortable. He reaches out towards her, and she recoils slightly. I get up and move towards them in an instant. "Touch my daughter, and I'll kill you." I speak up. I unsheathe my knife and point it towards him. He grumbles and backs off with his hands up in a soothing gesture. I sheath my knife and sit next to the woman. "Are you ok?" I ask. She sighs and nods. "Thank you." She says. "Really." I smile at her. "Of course." I say. "Anything to help. I'll stay with you for the rest of the ride, if you want. I won't let him near you again." She nods. "Yes, please. Thank you again."

I stand on in a crowded train station in the midday rush. I look up from my phone to see a stranger laughing nervously at a man saying disgusting things to her. I walk over and put my hand on her shoulder. "Maya, I've been looking all over for you." I say. I look at the man with murder in my eyes. "Is there something you needed from my sister?" I ask him. He shakes his head and walks off. The girl looks up at me in awe. "This is embarrassing. Could you... would you mind staying with me until I get home?" She asks, shyly. "I just finished my last errand, so I'm on my way now. If it's not out of your way." "Of course, love. It would by my honor." I say. She seems relieved. Her train arrives and I escort her home."
