No matter how Marie pleaded, they still won't stop. She look into the boy who helped her and pleaded for him to stop, hoping that he's going to listen to her. She never wanted them to destroy themselves. It's too chaotic. And sad.
She can't stop herself from tearing apart whenever those man aimed to punch another one. It hurts to witness those things especially for a pure of goodness being like Marie. An angel like her is not aware about the other side of human being.

The boy stopped when he saw how badly Marie cry. He don't want to witness a girl cry because of the wrongdoing of some pathetic human who wanted to create a mess every single time. So he decided to ditch those gangsters with a clenched jaw, furiously filled with unsatisfied raging of very strong fury that made him wanted to rip off those men's throat mercilessly.
"I'm going to kill them next time" The boy made a mental note.
He grab Marie's wrist and began running as fast as he can, dragging a clueless angel along the way. They run and run for they don't know how long. But no matter where they go, those man kept catching their pace. The boy thought that Marie won't last that long if they just run so he think of a possible plan.
Finally, after a long exhausting run, the boy spotted a big oak tree. He instantly got an idea. So in result, he drag Marie toward it and hid under the branches. The tree was on top of the hill that has a better view of the lake below, making them realize how good the place was.
Marie and the boy are both catching their breaths for a moment, leaving them nothing but only the sounds of their breathings. The boy was the first one to recover. After he's done, he instantly scan the whole place, checking if they lost those men's. The boy waited until he made sure they lost them. He ask Marie if she's ok, but she's still catching her breath, unable to utter a reply so she just nodded in response.
After Marie recovered, she finally look at the boy. The first thing she noticed is his eyes. The boy has a pair of red orbs, as red as blood. Again, it was the first time she saw those, making her think how cool it was. Marie was totally clueless about the boy's identity.
"Wow" Marie said breathlessly.
The boy chuckled and said, "I'm Zalgo,"
"I'm Marie" She replied.
Marie is happy because she finally had a human friend. But the question is; is Zalgo a human?
As for Zalgo, he was mesmerized to see how beautiful Marie was. It was his first time to meet such a pretty human.
Zalgo and Marie don't have any idea about each others real Identity.
