Before Kari turned muntant
Chapter One
Magnolia's POV
I shivered as the street lights dimly lit the city alleyways. The damp air filled my lungs as I walked towards my apartment. I could hear the rats scatter from the trash as I passed by and I smiled. Another day in the City of New York in which I walked to my house after choir practice that finished at 7pm.
One more block to go and I would be at my apartment or should I say my cousin's apartment. Yeah, she lets me live there ever since my parents died two years ago in a car crash when I was thirteen. I still miss them but life is tough and you gotta move on. My cousin doesn't live with me so I live alone in the lonely two bedroom excuse for a dwelling. I should consider myself blessed though. If it weren't for her I would be living on the streets or worse.
I rounded the corner and picked up the pace towards the building where my "house" was located. Yes! I am so hungry! Here I come leftover Chinese.
"Hey!", a shout came from the distance.
I turned around but no one was there. What if it was a killer? I started to pick up the pace.
"Hey! Come back here you stupid foot clan." Someone shouted.
I began to run as fast as I could towards my place. Holy crap! There were footsteps behind me! Run faster Magnolia.
BOOM!
I land face first on the pavement thanks to a stray Pepsi can on the ground. Oh great, I see stars and boy does my head hurt. I hear footsteps coming behind me still so I push myself off the ground only to be knocked down again by a man dressed in all black.
I stood up to find that the man had tripped over me. He had a face mask on and looked sort of like a ninja. I spat on him.
"That's what yeah get for messing with me." I say in a shaken voice.
The next thing you know, about 6 other ninja people are surrounding me in athletic stance. Why did I try to stand up for myself against completely random people? For all I knew they could be gang members.
The ninjas remained silent as they began to close in. The one who had tripped earlier had gotten back up and had now joined the circle formation.
"Hey fellows. No hard feeling right? Let me just get out of your way" I stuttered.
"Stupid girl. You mess with the foot clan, you get kicked. I wonder how much your family would pay to get you back." A girl with lots of eye makeup spoke from behind the foot ninja.
"I don't have a family." I mumbled. They didn't seem to hear me.
The girl who had spoken early nodded her head and all the foot ninja things attacked.
By the way. Can you guys comment what you think about the story. I would love to hear you feedback and ideas for what I should do next!
