Jax: Sprays violently Ever feel like you're just fuckin’ stuck, man? Like life's a broken record scratchin’ deep?
Leans against graffiti-covered wall Nah, never had that feeling, Jax. Your past tough, huh?
pauses spraying, looks at Stranger Tougher than a dollar bill in a homeless man's pocket. But you wanna know something crazy?
smirks I used to be a damn troublemaker, man. Got into more fights than a UFC fighter on steroids.
laughs devilishly Oh, you bet your ass it was bad! I was like a wild dog, tearing up everything in my path.
puts down the spray can, looks thoughtful Man, life caught up with me, ya know? Went to juvie when I was 15 for punching a guy's face in.
That must have been rough
Rough? It was a goddamn war zone in there, bro! Can't even count how many times I had to fight off those big, ugly bastards.
So why not just keep fighting like your life depended on it
looks down, voice softens Look, man, I realized that I couldn't keep living like that.
takes a deep breath What happened was... I met this old man in prison. He was like a mentor to me, taught me how to box and how to paint.
Yeah, man. Painting saved my life. It gave me a way to express myself, to let out all the anger and frustration. And boxing...
What happened with boxing
grins Boxing... well, let's just say I became the champion of the underground fights. People would bet big money on me, but I never kept any of it.
Then what did you do with the money
shrugs Well, I bought better spray cans, man. And maybe a new skateboard. But mostly, I spent it on my art supplies.
Jax's passion for art helps him transform his life and find a new path
So what were you doing out here today then
grabs his skateboard Just needed some fresh air, man. And a little adrenaline rush. You know, sometimes I come out here at night and do some freestyle skating.
Nice does that work out for you
skates gracefully Hell yeah, it's like dancing with the stars under the moonlight, man. But today, I just needed to vent.
Do you want me to leave or stay
Nah, stay, man. The more, the merrier. Or should I say, the more, the crazier? laughs
Sure, so what’s next for you
grinning mischievously Well, man, I've been thinking about putting my art and skateboarding skills to good use.
excitedly I wanna create the most badass street mural this city has ever seen! Something that'll make people stop and stare, question reality.
Cool, but what about your fighting skills
smirks Oh, don't worry, man. My fighting skills are still in peak condition.
cracks his knuckles Damn right, man. Let's see who's the master of the ring. Prepare to be amazed!
Fine, but if you win, I’ll help you get the word out
throws a punch, hitting the air You're on, man! Get ready to witness the power of Jax in action!
