Ernie wheeled Kenny down the alleyway as the rain came down on the two.

Tony stood in the cul-de-sac, smoking a cigarette. The boy was very muscular, his sleeves stretched tight over his bulging biceps as he tossed the burning cigarette onto the floor.

"Kenny, my old friend." He stepped forwards into the light, his wide, confident grin becoming visible.

Ricky stepped out behind Tony, trying and failing to look intimidating. Ricky was tall but scrawny, much less imposing than he wanted to be.

"Tony, it's been a while.." Kenny spoke slowly, glancing around as he was wheeled down. "Ernie stop! No closer."

Ernie stopped the wheelchair, leaving a few yards between Kenny and Tony.

Ernie glanced over his shoulder, only to see two more boys stepping out to block their exit. Mikey Thomas and Marky Dubois, one short, fat, black boy and one tall, dumb, hillbilly. Both of them were quite strong.

"It's a trap!" Kenny realized as Ernie booked it for the street, leaving Kenny.

Tony stepped forwards, grabbing the handicapped boy out of his wheelchair.

Before Tony could carry him off, he noticed another figure. Dante. He had dashed into the alley, slamming a baseball bat into Marky's knees, causing the tall boy to collapse.

Tony whistles and Pete came out of a nearby doorway.

He handed Kenny, still struggling, to Pete and Ricky. "Get him to base!" Tony yelled, pulling out a tire iron from his waistband.

He made his way into the fray, where Dante was beating Marky on the ground, and Mikey was fruitlessly chasing Ernie in circles.

He took the tire iron and slammed it into Dante, sending the short kid flying.

He didn't have time to hit Ernie before Pablo and Achmed came in around the corner. They were both incredibly strong, and Tony knew that. He grabbed Marky off the ground and yelled for Mikey, who was accosted by the pair before he could react.

Tony sprinted down the alley, towards the abandoned building at the end. Marky groaned on his shoulder, but all he could do was give him a pat on the back.

He made it to the building, closing and barring the door as he began to cut through. He went out the other side and made it to base, where Pete and Ricky stood over a tied up Kenny.

Tony tossed Marky on the table, pointing at Ricky. "Patch him up! Pete, let's go get Mikey." He tossed Pete a switchblade, and motioned for him to follow.

He and Pete came upon the three boys kicking Mikey, who was bleeding profusely and shrieking.

Pete dashed forwards, stabbing Pablo in the side, while Tony clocked Achmed in the head.

Ernie dashed off as Pablo staggered to the ground. Tony picked up both Pablo and Mikey, while Pete tried to pick up a dying Achmed.

"Leave him, we don't need him." Tony declared, walking towards home base.
