The factory… Beyblades…       (Ray POV)

I walked out of my village away from my house, my family.

I had found a job, I needed it my family and I had no money we needed this so we could eat… I haven't eaten for days… my family needed it more…

I looked to Mariah she looked just as miserable as me…

Okay I didn't like her that much but still, this job was no good.

Last week a new factory settled nearby our village, the factory owners came here to search for employees.

My family hoped that one of us could work there and they chose me.

It was a Beyblade factory.

We needed to sit in a dark, hot fabric hall making Beyblades.

It isn't safe there, one of us already got hurt working with a machine.

Luckily I only need to put Beyblades together, that isn't very dangerous only my environment is…

Our boss is a tyrant, he rapes girls… mostly Mariah…

If any of us tries to help them we're fired… and I can't let that happen or else my family has no future, no life…  they even could die…

The only way to get away from hard reality is Beyblading, me and Drigger…

If I only could get away from China, to Europe or somewhere else…

That would change my whole life…

I walked towards the factory, I hated the sight of it.

Mariah stopped.

"Come, let's go Mariah!" I said.

"I-I can't… what if he… I CAN'T!" she screamed.

I took her hand, "You must Mariah… do it for your family…"

"Would you protect me Ray? Would you?!" she asked with tears in her eyes.

I didn't answer that one but walked away from her.

"Ray!" she screamed.

I knew she was crying, but I couldn't turn back not now… I couldn't help her…

A tear strolled down my cheek when I walked in.

I took place after a table and started.

Then I looked up and saw that Mariah entered the factory.

I was relieved she did came, her family needed her…

But still I couldn't focus on my work, my stomach rumbled to hard but I had to work if I didn't I wouldn't get paid and then they had no food.

So I ignored my hunger and continued working.

Their boss walked in and looked around.

Looking for a girl victim are you? Ray thought bitterly.

I saw Mariah's fear.

Anger almost took control of me as I saw that our boss walked up to Mariah.

I saw her shaking of fear.

Please not her… I thought.

Luckily he didn't pick Mariah.

The boss pulled the other girl of her seat and started kissing her, she pushed him away he angry hit her hard. She fell on the ground.

A guy ran towards the man.

Bad move fellow… I thought sadly, you should have let him.

The guy punched his boss and helped the girl up, their boss called security and they were thrown out; without money…

And so the day went on their boss let the other girls alone for now.

When I walked to the exit I got my money, it was enough for 2 bowls of rice.

I immediately walked after that to a shop to buy my food, and then returned home.

"Ray!" my mother welcomed me.

"It's your turn to eat, take a bowl son," my father said.

I nodded and gave the other bowl to my parents so they could share that, also with the rest of my brothers and sisters.

They al looked so hungry that I decided, "Here you take the rest of my rice, I'm full."

I lied, I was very hungry but gave the rest of my rice to my brothers and sisters they needed it more then me.

"Thank you Ray!" my younger sister said giving him a sweet kiss.

I smiled.

I went immediately to bed because I had worked for 18 hours and tomorrow was the same story.

I better get some rest, I thought when falling asleep.
