Running footsteps against the asphalt on the sidewalk was heard in the city on this unusually quiet night.
Two black masked men ran through the city away from the bank, trying to escape the person chasing them. Bags of money was held over their shoulders and sweat ran down their foreheads under their black masks.
They came to an alleyway and ran inside. The person who chased them ran past the alley and they let out a breath of relief when they thought they had escaped.
That's when they heard a wicked chuckle behind them.
The robbers turned around and saw a pair of blood red eyes staring at them from the dark shadows in the alley. They started backing away when they bumped into something behind them.
The two robbers turned around and came eye to eye with the person who had been chasing them.
He had chocolate brown hair that was styled in spikes and auburn eyes. Around his neck hung a golden chain with a dragon holding a red jewel. And over his left eyes was a scar. He was wearing a pair of red sneakers, black jeans, and a black jacket with some dark red details on it and a hood. Under the jacket, he had a red tank top with the text, "Hot like fire" written in black on the front.
He crossed his arms and smirked wickedly, "Going somewhere?"
The robbers once again heard a wicked chuckle behind them and turned around to see the owner of those blood red eyes.
He had black hair that was styled in spikes just like the other guy's, a scar over his left eye, and a silver chain with a dragon holding a red jewel hanging around his neck. He was wearing black sneakers, a pair of black ripped jeans, and a black jacket with ripped sleeves and a hood that was pulled up. Under the jacket he had a dark grey tank top with the text, "Monsters are everywhere" written in red on the front. On his hands were a pair of black fingerless gloves.
He crossed his arms and smirked even more wickedly than the other guy, "Like he said, going somewhere?"
The robbers gulped and then got into a fighting stance, trying to look threatening, but they failed miserably seeing as they were shaking with fear.
The two jacket wearing guys chuckled and the one with black hair spoke up, "I suggest you don't do that, for your sake."
The robbers shared a nervous and frightened look and one of them spoke up, "Wh...Why w-would we w-want to d-do that?"
The brown-haired person replied, "Because we are stronger than we look and won't hesitate to fight if needed."
The other robber started taking to the other one, "Let's rob a bank you said, it'll go great you said. Do you call this great!?"
"How was I supposed to know that we would run into these two freaks!"
The black-haired guy flinched and clenched his fists.
The brown-haired one's smirk faded, "Oh no."
The robbers turned to him, "What?"
"You shouldn't have said that. Now you've made him mad, and trust me, he's not nice when he's mad."
The robbers turned to the black-haired one just in time to get punched in the face. They fell to the ground unconscious.
The one with auburn eyes let out a sigh, "You couldn't stop yourself, could you?"
The black-haired one crossed his arms, "They were annoying, and I really don't have the patience to deal with that today, Kai."
Kai laughed, "Yeah, to be honest, they were really testing my patience too, but still. You didn't have to knock them out so hard."
