I only own Angeni the war orphan/pick pocket and anything else that's new.


Duo Maxwell sighed as he cracked his neck while he walked home from his latest Preventers assignment. A pair of big brown eyes watched him from the shadows. The eyes belonged to a filthy child in raggedy clothes. Said child was skinny, not that the outfit helped make them look less skinny, but not totally starved, their hair was long, tangled, and the color was impossible to distinguish due to grime and dirt. The tiny human snuck up behind the braided male and lifted his wallet from his pocket. Yes this child was a pickpocket, a hungry, war orphan pickpocket. As the kid started to back away Duo grabbed the child's wrist and covered their moth when they opened their mouth to scream.

"Calm down, I won't hurt you. Now what were you trying to steal my wallet for?" he asked, uncovering the child's mouth.

The child didn't speak but their stomach growled giving Duo his answer. He took wallet back, pulled out all his cash and handed to the now shocked child.

"Let's just say I've been your shoes."

The child smiled, "Thank you!"

Before they ran off. As the child ran off Duo vaguely wondered if he would ever see that child again…
