Eyes fluttered open to reveal such lovely blue eyes. Smooth slender legs can be seen sticking out from the half moth eaten blanket. A head of golden hair was poking out from underneath the blanket. He felt something wet hit his face. Widening his eyes only to blink when a drop of water from the ceiling hit his eye, then nose causing him to sneeze cutely.
"Good morning Kurama" Naruto says to his stuffed fox toy. The only thing of his belonging that he didn't had to steal or found in a pile of trash. The stuffed animal was very old and worn out, one button eye was missing and the stuffings were coming out from a large torn from behind. But Naruto still loved it.
Naruto looked over the 'table'(It was actualy just two boxes he placed side by side and covered the top with another moth eaten blanket he found in the trash) where all the pockets he picked from last night, lay waiting for him.
He was so tired last night he didn't bother checking the wallets and just dumped them all on the 'table' before getting in his dirty sleeping bag and falling asleep. He had dreamt of flashes of silver, and scarlet, his dreams were always vauge. Sometimes he would dream about his past, other times he would actualy have nice dreams, but his nice dreams were always so blurry and it never made any sense.
Naruto didn't bother understanding his dreams. It wasn't like they were ever going to become reality.
He sighed before forcing himself up, his whole body was hot, he had a sore throat and his vision was blurring. He shook his head roughly before picking up the first wallet. There wasn't much, just a few cents and a picture of a little girl.
The others had cards, but he never uses the cards. He usualy just cuts them in half and throws them away. A thief still has honor afterall. "Honor my crap" Naruto spat before throwing the cut cards to the trash bag nearby. Who believes in a thief's honor? No one. Not even himself.
So far he's counted twenty dollars and fifthy cents. Enough to buy ramen for breakfast again. Naruto sighed heavily before shoving the twenty dollars in his pocket.
The blond looked at the view outside his small cracked window. The sky was still grey, no doubt it will be another cold shower in the rain, polluted smoke can be seen from a distance thanks to his high view. Yup, today is such a wonderful day.
Note his sarcasm.
The blond coughed a few times before climbing out his window and down the rusted ladder.

He leaned against the wall, his eyes watching out for new victims. He decided to skip breakfast and save his money for later.
His sharp blue eyes landed on a gangly looking man who was busy with his phone. He wore a baby blue colored suit and 60's glasses. He looked to be in his late forthies or early thirties. Naruto followed the man, keeping a safe distance behind, his hand twitchy and just itching to reach for the man's back pocket where he could see a black leather wallet sticking out.
"Gotcha" Naruto thought triumphantly when he easily pulled out the leather wallet from the man's back pocket and excitedly shoved it inside his jacket, judging from the weight he expected the wallet to be filled with good amount of dollars or maybe valuables.
When he looked up however he was met with the murderous glare of the man. "You bastard!" the yelled before swinging a right hook to his jaw.
Naruto was sent on his back and felt a warm liquid slide from the side of his mouth. He touched it. Blood.
"Damn it" he cussed before standing up and making a run for a random alley in hopes of escaping. The man was hot on his tail. On any regular day, Naruto could have easily out ran his pursuer, but because of the fact Naruto hasn't eaten anything since last night, and his body was weak from his fever, the blond was slow and kept tripping.
The man got a good hold of his hair and pulled him back. "Ahh!" Naruto screamed when he was yanked back roughly, and felt himself slam against a wall.
"Bet'cha thought I was some easy target huh you little street rat?! Well fuck you scum!" the man yelled repeatedly slamming his head against against the hard concrete. Naruto's vision wasn't fading anytime soon, but he was seeing red. Something warm was sliding down his face and covering half his vision.
"Pl-please....stop" the blond pleaded weakly, but the man kept banging his head. Naruto knew no one was going to help him, why would they? He was a theif, a street rat, a nobody, a scum of the earth. But he couldn't help but feel a small glimmer of hope that someone would come save him.
"Hey!" he heard someone yell. The man stopped banging his head against the wall but didn't let him go either.
The last thing Naruto saw before his vision completely faded to blackness was silver hair and a red string connecting them together.
