Gray's POV

When you think of a city you think of
bright lights, cloud high skyscrapers, and busy people trying to get through their lives. Well, I'll tell you only of those is right. And people like to push. If I could, I would whack some of them with the rolling suitcase I have, or the guitar case but that would break my axe, if you know what I mean. I sighed as I kept walking hopeing to find some form of shelter

???: Hey let go jerk!

I was pulled from my hopeing to see an older tux wearing dude, getting up close and personal with a guy about my age

Tux Guy: You stole from me, give my money back!

???: No way! I need this!

The guy the man was harassing looked about my age, and in the whole "homeless" situation too. So, I did what likely I would only do, intervene.

Gray: Hey!

It managed to get both of their attentions, they both looked towards me.

Gray: Sometgting wrong here?

Tux Guy: This doesn't concern you.

Gray: It does now. Leave the guy alone.

Tux Guy: Beat it pipsqueak.

Gray: Pipsqueak!?

Okay. Now I'm angry. Guess I'll show him I mean business. As he was about to get violent on the other boy, I grabbed his arm, yanked him away from the other, and pushed him away. He stumbled backwards while yelling

Tux Guy: Hey!

Gray: I said leave him alone.

Tux Guy: Argh... That's it!

He went for a punch. I ducked. As his arm lunged forward and missed, I grabbed it, using my other arm, I pushed it up. Hearing the bone begin to snap, he yanked it away. He was whining and gasping in pain.

Gray: Who's the pipsqueak now?

After that, he was scared senseless, I'm pretty sure I nearly broke his arm. He ran like Satan himself was on his tail. I smiled victoriously at my efforts, then turned my attention to the other boy.

Gray: You okay?

???: Go away...

I looked around for a moment, making sure Mr. Tux wasn't coming back. Now that he was gone, I could actually see the other's features. He had violet hair and burgundy eyes and a few scars littered on his arms

Gray: What's your name.

???: Why do you care?

Gray: I'd like to know who I'm speaking to.

???: Hmph, Yoichi.

Gray: Names Gray.

Yoichi: Nice. Can you go now?

Gray: I'm thinking, No

I sit beside him.

Gray: So what did you do to piss that guy off.

Yoichi: I stole food and money from him.

Gray: Oh, so you in the same boat I'm in?

Yoichi: What?

Gray: No place to go. No one to turn to. Living on your own.

Yoichi: Guess you could call it that.

All of a sudden I had an idea.

Gray: You said you wanted me to leave.

Yoichi: Still do
