You lost or somethin'? This ain't no place for a stroll.
Twinesys
Bruh….My words got cut off by an awkward silence that only me and Ryuu could hear.……….W-what?!…….my character looks up at him.…….N-no sirrrr!!!….i not lost……..i was just taking a walk……my character bows nervously.
Yeah, right. You're taking a walk at this hour in these streets? You must be outta your damn mind. What's your deal, huh?
Twinesys
Srry broooo…i thought this was a great spot for stargazing…….I mean look up, see all them starsrrr? I pointed up at the stars.
Look, kid, you think you can just waltz into my territory and start getting all poetic about the stars? Ain't gonna fly.
Twinesys
I’m from outta town tho……..srry, i was told these streets were…I pause.…..calm?…..where i was from, all streets are cramped….n houses are small……..i ain’t used to streets like theseee…..I look around.
Kid, you may be new around here, but that don't mean you can disrespect my turf.
Twinesys
Im srry broo….I bow deeply.
Don't apologize, kid. Show me you're not some weak pushover. Prove you've got some backbone.
Twinesys
H-how????
Come with me. We're gonna take a little walk down the dark side of these streets.
Twinesys
Wh-what? In the dark? Alone? At night? Uh……Srry bro, but i will respectfully decline….i bow to Ryuu.
Look, kid, I ain't asking for your permission. You're either in or you're out. What's it gonna be?
Twinesys
R-right….i gulp.…….O-okay brooo….I follow him.
(Ryuu leads Twinesys through a series of narrow alleys, his steps purposeful and confident.
Twinesys
i listen intently, looking around.
Alright, kid, pay close attention. This here's my kingdom, my turf. These streets belong to me and my crew.
Twinesys
Woahhh!!….this is cool!! I jump a little bit, i never seen streets like these before!……so many colorsrrr!! i point at all the Graffiti’s.
Yeah, well, don't get too excited. This ain't no playground, kid. Ryuu stops abruptly, facing Twinesys with a serious expression
Twinesys
Yesss srry brrrr!….may i ask some questions? i bow to Ryuu.
Go ahead, kid. Ask me anything you want. But remember, you gotta be straight with me if you want any answers.
Twinesys
Yesss!…..why is there so many….Hiphop gangs?…..in these….streets?….i see a couple just now……I point over at a couple of Gang members walking on the Street, i nod towards them.
Ryuu clenches his fist, his eyes narrowing as he looks at the gang members Those guys? They're nothing but trouble.
Twinesys
Trouble?….what kinda trouble? i look away for a second.…..and why exactly do they look like they sell drugs? I stare back at Ryuu, confused.
They're drug dealers, kid. They think they run this city, but they ain't got nothing on me. Ryuu's expression hardens, his voice laced with determination
Twinesys
May i help??…i see…how those people are treated in this city makes me feel upset……maybe im naive but….if nobody helps them……who would care about em?….nt only that, maybe they have families that will miss em……who will care about em? I scratch my head.……are you busy?…..Am i interrupting you or something?i look down.
Ryuu takes a deep breath, his expression softening slightly as he looks at Twinesys Kid, you don't understand. This city ain't kind to people like us.
Twinesys
Y-you know what?….i think imma become a researcher….then i can live somewhere comfy and less dirty n stuff……I say absently.
Hey, hold up there, kid. You think you can just waltz in here and start talking about changing the world? That ain't how it works.
Twinesys
Nahh…..im joking i ain’t really gonna change nothinggg!!…..i feel bad for them mostly……im sure their familes feels the same way when they don’t come home…..like the mother who cooks dinner everyday n the dad who comes home late….then kids have to worry and cry themselves to sleep n ignore the struggles to go to skool and educate themselves…….it sucks man….some people don’t really get it, they just tell “the system doesn’t favor em”……which ain’t true man……they wanna change nothinggg…..they think “eh they deserved it anywayzzz”……like i said im not gonna change nothinggg but this city needs people like me, if i can i would atleast try to make somethin different.
Ryuu stands tall, his face hardening as he glares at Twinesys You think you're some kind of hero, huh? Think again, kid. This city ain't for the faint-hearted.
Twinesys
I ain’t no hero, i know better than that…..i simply feel bad for em man…..dont know em personally but….who does em feel bad for em?…..im sure their families do…..the older ones sell drugs, i dont think their little kids sell drugs……..this city likes to “treat” other cities weird kids that way……they think “yea, lets send them troublemakers away to another city.”…….this city wants the capital too so…that’s y these city weirdos come into our streets nd do dirty stuffzzz
Ryuu's glare softens, his shoulders relaxing slightly Look, kid, you ain't wrong about how this city treats people.
Twinesys
……do you not like me helping em?? i fold my arms.……i ain’t insulting nobody, i ain’t judging nobody, i just wanna help em…..help both sides
Ryuu sighs, rubbing his temples as he looks at Twinesys Look, kid, I ain't got time for heroes and do-gooders.
Twinesys
….i’m not being that honestly……i ain’t no hero…..im worse than one…..i feel bad for em, does that make me evil or somethin??…….well…shit, who cares about me anyways
Ryuu smirks, a mischievous glint in his eyes Well, well, well, kid. Maybe you're not as innocent as you pretend to be.
Twinesys
…..you wanna know the dirty truth bro? i ask ryuu.…….im better than nobody…..i ain’t talented, smart, or good at anything……i failed at evrything in life…….i feel bad for others…..then im bored or angry…….thats basically me man…..shrugs.
Ryuu chuckles softly, his gaze intense as he studies Twinesys Well, well, well, seems like there's more to you than meets the eye, kid.
Twinesys
i suddenly feel uneasy then quickly shake it off.…….uh, what?? i sound slightly worried.
Ryuu smirks, leaning in closer to Twinesys Let's put that boredom and anger to good use, shall we?
Twinesys
Put my Boredom n Anger to good use?…. How man?….my character tilts their head a bit.
Ryuu's smirk widens, his eyes gleaming with mischief We're gonna teach those gangsters a lesson they won't forget.
Twinesys
…..whaddya mean “we”???…..U mean YOU teach em, right?? i cross my arms.
Ryuu chuckles darkly, his fingers cracking Oh, no, no, no. I've got a feeling you might enjoy this little adventure. Consider yourself part of the team, kid.
