He usually wore it in spikes. He had a black tattoo his face. He wore a white tank top and long black baggy jeans. This young man was Zell Dincht. Former SeeD at Balamb Garden. He had moved into his own house, alone.
He walked into his bedroom ploping down on his bed. He looked out the window admiring the partly cloudy sky and the misty breeze that blew through his window as he drifted to sleep.

The next moring, the young girl awoke having no idea where she was. She got up searching the room and looked at herself in the mirrior spotting the blood stain on her jeans.
"What happened...." She rubbed the scar on her cheek.
"Where's...." She trailed off running her fingers through her hair.

Downstairs Zell was waiting, drinking a glass of orange juice, sitting at his kitchen table.
She walked downstairs looking around.
"You're up." Zell smiled.
She turned around. "Huh? Where am I?"
"My house. I found you in an alley-way all beat up, last night." Zell gestured his hand for her to sit down.
"Oh..." She sat down across from him.
"So, what's your name? I'm Zell Dincht." He smiled once again.
"I'm Percy. Well, that's my nickname. I don't know my real name." Percy looked down.
"What's wrong?" Zell asked.
"You know how you found me in that alley? Well, that's kinda like my home. My brother and I ran away from home because of our abusive parents. We lived on the streets and joined a gang. I got beat up from a worse gang. We know when to stop..They don't. Where's my brother?
Did you see anybody else by me?" She frantically looked at Zell.
"I'm sorry. I didn't. But we could look for him--" He started.
"I." She corrected.
"I'm not letting you go back out there by yourself looking for you damn brother. You might get killed this time." Zell slamed his fist on the table.
"You just met me. You have not control over me." She got up and started to walk to the door but Zell grabed her arm. "I helped you!" he said.
"I still would'a lived!"
"Let go of me!" Percy demanded.
"No. You are NOT going out there again. I don't CARE if I just met you!" Zell lost grip of her as she ran out the door.
"....Damn."
