Chapter 38: The Morows

Running throughout the Yorknew streets, Midnight made sure to roam his golden eyes to spot the whereabouts of his mother. He had this smirk on his face that showed that he really is enjoying the task that Rei left him.

He would get amazed by the new things he laid his eyes onto but he moves on extremely fast and proceeded to find his Mom instead. His En is not that wide yet, and using it on this crowded place makes his head hurt since there were too much presences for him to identify. He decided to use his eyes instead.

"Where did mommy go?" He mumbled, turning to an alleyway on his right. The alley was silent, a little bit dark and it reeked of different scents at once and that made him hold his breath. He hated it. Disgusting smell! Terrible, horrible, horrendous, dreadful!

While running, a man who had a huge body suddenly went out from a corner, causing Midnight to bump into him. Midnight staggered backwards, looking up at the man who was glaring at him.

"Watch where you're going, kid!" He spat. He had that face that would make every kid scared of him and scurry away. There were also two huge men behind him that were also glaring at him. Any normal kid should run and call their mommy for help since they're faced with such dangerous peoole. Too bad he ain't just a normal kid.

"Where's your mother?!" The man he bumped into asked, making him blink at him before shrugging with a smug look on his face.

"What? Ya don't have a momma?" One of the men behind asked, laughing at him. "You're a poor kid, ain't ya?" The man teased, twitching his face into a crying one. Midnight squinted his eyes, staring at the man with the murderous eyes he got from his father.

"Ya know, I hate it that you're talkin' like the way mom and I does. I shall have the honor to rip your tongue apart." He cracked his fingers, craning his neck from left to right. The man took a step back, his face painted with terror when he noticed something.

"Y-Your eyes l-looks l-like h-his." The man stuttered, making Midnight's face brighten. His scary aura was gone and it was replaced with an innocent kid. He smiled at the man, leaning a little closer.

"Who is he? Can you introduce him to me?" He asked, genuinely interested about the person the man mentioned to him. Instead of warming up to him, the man screamed, petrified as he ran away. It made Midnight click his tongue, standing straight before his eyebrows furrowed in annoyance.

"I'd like to have fun, but y'all are annoying." He said, taking a step back to prepare his right leg. He suddenly jumped, causing the two men left to look up to him with wide eyes. They were tall and huge, but oh boy the kid can jump higher than their heights. He gave the first one a kick in the nape using the front of his right foot, pushing his own left leg down with great force and making his body spin the air. His right foot once again hit the other man's nape and he landed on the ground softly with his left foot behind his right. His movements were fast, calculated, and precise. Both men fell on the ground at the same time, unconscious.

He let out a loud sigh, turning his head towards the man who was running away.

"Seriously?" He raised a brow, grimacing at how the man flailed like a madman. "Oi! Where ya headin'?!" He shouted, running after the man who screamed in terror when he heard his voice.

A certain man with red hair and black and white clothes who was only supposed to be passing by suddenly turned his head when he heard a certain voice from an alleyway. It was a kid's voice, followed by a distant screaming of a man.

"Hmm?" He turned his back, heading to that certain alley. He was interested, alright. Like, whose kid was that to be able to make a grown man shout? He must be strong.
