Joseph woke up seeing someone off in the distance. Still half asleep Joseph quietly said to himself "what the heck?" A group of men were surrounding the man. Joseph could hear them talking.
He heard one of the men say "weres the money?" The man replied that he didnt have his money with him and that he would take the group to his house if they would let him. NO! We wanted it tonight old man!
One mugger pulled out a crowbar while two others held baseball bats. Joseph ran up behind the man with the crowbar and jumped on his back and hit the man in the side of the head and slammed his fists into the muggers eyes. Joseph jumped of the muggers back as the mugger fell the the ground grabbing his eyes. "Boss you ok?" One of the men said. "Get that kid!"
Joseph ran away behind him two men chasing him with baseball bats. Josheph tripped over himself from running so fast. He had landing on his knee and couldn't get up in time. Before he knew it the two men were infront of him. "Time to get it kid." One man raised his bat in the air ready to slam it onto joseph. "No!" Joseph raised his hands infront of him and suddenly the man was shot back with a blast of energy.
The man went 10ft high into the air and came down onto the ground with a loud thump onto the ground. The other mugger looked over at the body. A huge hole was through the stomach of the now dead mugger. Joseph looked over at the other an saw a look of fear on his face and the mugger ran terrified.
Joseph got up and saw the mugger running to his boss. The mugger told the boss what happend and they both ran. Joseph walked over to the old man. "Are you ok sir?" The man looked at Jospeh with a scared yet thankful look on his face. "Thank you young man." The old man walked away. Joseph then walkd back to his sleeping bag and fell back to sleep.
