Seth, the Street Thug
Seth yawned lazily as he got up from his bed, when he heard a loud banging on his door.
"Seth! Seth! Open up!" Mark, one of his buddies was nervously yelling.
"What the hell is this now? So early in the morning…" Seth wondered grumpily as he reached for the door.
"What now?" Seth asked as he opened the door.
"They got Kevin! And they're not handing him down unless you show up!" He warned him nervously.
Seth frowned. "Ugh. Not again"
"So what do we do now?"
"Don't worry, I can handle this myself. So where'd they say we meet?"
" they said they'd be on the same place at 12 noon."
"I see…" He replied calmly. He was used to picking up fights anyway. Ever since he knocked down a whole gang of bad guys who were about to rob a Chinese grocery store, they never forget about it and are constantly plotting for his inhumane death.
At exactly twelve noon, Seth showed up, alone. He was surrounded by five tough-looking men and one had Kevin all tied up.
"Finally! The time has come" The gang's leader said with an evil grin. "Revenge sure is sweet, ahh... you shouldn't have messed with us the other day"
"okay, name your price" Seth said bravely.
"Ahhh… considering the fact that you are penniless, might as weel beat you up to pieces"
And so it began, Seth himself was a good fighter. He managed to knock almost all of them down but one guy slashed his right arm with a knife. Blood was pouring out on the deep cut. Still he managed to take them down until they surrendered and left hurriedly.
"This isn't over yet, young man!" screamed the gang leader in fury.
"Seth are you okay?" Kevin asked worriedly.
"Don't worry about me, go find Mark, warn him to be careful, I think they'll be after him right now"
"But..."
"Go! I told you this is just a cut, I'm used to this okay
"okay just hang on, I'll be back as fast as I can" Kevin said and left.
Seth tore out a portion of his shirt and bandaged his bloody arm.
"Oh man, I think this is a deep cut." Seth thought, and with all his effort, tried to walk. He was feeling so weak and dizzy now from all the blood loss.
