Chapter 5
He saved my life
Morning 7:00 am…
Tony is walking to school; thinking to himself.
"Today better go well…" He told himself.
"Destiny said I have to look out for her" Tony told himself.
"Man today is not going to be my day…"He said.
Tony walks closer to the school.
"Maybe I won't see her today" Told himself.
"Tony!" Lupita yelled.
Tony's eye widens and looks around and sees Lupita waving to him from the top of the balcony.
Tony stumbles. "Great I have to get through this today" Tony told himself.
Lupita walks towards Tony; she smiles and waves.
"Hey" she said.
Tony looks away.
"Hi…" Tony said in a low tone voice.
"What's wrong?" Lupita asked.
"Nothing is wrong" Tony's stomach growls.
"Tony your hungry" she said.
Tony puts his right arm on his stomach.
"Here you go!" Lupita smiled while holding a brown paper bag.
"I'm not hungry…"Tony said.
The scent of the food smelled so good that Tony's nose picked up the smell quickly.
Tony smells with his nose.
"Is that? An Omelet?" Tony grabs the bag and opens it looking inside.
Tony smiles "Alright! Theres a hash brown! Eggs! Bacon! Pancakes! And an Omelet!" Tony tells himself.
Lupita smiles "I made him happy" She told herself.
Tony pretends to cough, "Urhem…I have to…uh…check this brown bag, I think there's something I have to…um…see!" Tony said in a hurry and ran off.
"Your welcome" Lupita smiled.
Tony ate as much as he can; leaving nothing but air and an empty bag.
"Man this was so good" Tony told himself.
"Why she fix me food?" Tony thought.
Bell rings
"No…" Tony shakes his head.
"It's not important…let's go to class…" Tony told himself.
Later on that day
Tony walks out of class.
"Finally the end of the day, I can go home…" Tony told himself.
"Hey Tony" Lupita said.
Tony turned and saw Lupita walking towards Tony.
"You fell asleep during class today your going to fail you know?" Lupita said.
"So...and you care why?" Tony asked.
Lupita looks away. "Um because…I want to help you…trust me I really do" Lupita said.
"Trust...her?" Tony told himself.
Tony shakes his head.
"No…I don't need your help…just leave me alone…" Tony said and walks away.
"I'm sorry…" Lupita said.
"It's ok…" Tony said walking away.
"I just want to be alone for a bit…" Tony said.
Tony walks away.
"Okay…then ill see you" Lupita said sadly.
Tony is walking home alone.
"Man…what a day…already I hate it" Tony told himself.
"That girl though…why does she care so much?" Tony told himself.
"She made me food…even from the beginning when I was depressed" Tony told himself.
"She wanted me to trust her…"Tony said.
"Should I trust her?" Tony told himself.
A flash back of when Tony was 12 when he found out about bad news.
"Tony…I'm sorry but I had to" The girl said.
"I can't believe you….why would you do this…to me?" Tony said.
"I don't know it just happened." She yelled.
"It just happened!? How could you just say that!?" Tony yelled.
"I'm sorry…you're just…wasn't good enough…" She said.
Tony goes to his knees and cries.
"Not good enough?" Tony said
"I trusted you! How could you! Damn it!" Tony punches the floor.
"You're just a kid…you just act immature…you were raised by your mother…you cant even stand up for your self you always have to hide…you'll never fight back…your just a little sissy…you can't even defend yourself…" She said.
"I pretended to like you because of the money…" she said.
"All the girls that liked you Tony…are all fakes" She said.
A group of girls surrounded Tony.
Tony looked around him and was in shock.
"We never really liked you Tony we just wanted your money…"One girl said.
"You're just a sissy and weird" Another said.
"You don't belong here…your ugly" Another girl said.
They all pointed and laughed.
"I never want to see you again! All you girls are the same! You just want to hurt people who really do have a heart!" Tony yelled.
Tony runs away crying.
"Ill never trust another girl again…there all the same you'll
Just end up hurt…" Tony told himself.
"I'm better off alone…"Tony said.
Tony wakes up from the flash back.
"No…It doesn't matter all girls are the same…" Tony shook his head.
"I can't risk trusting no one again…" Tony told himself.
Grey clouds formed in the sky sprinkling a little rain.
"It's going to rain…great…" He told himself.
Tony heard someone hurt and in pain.
Tony looks around and sees a Teen in pain crawling.
"What's this? Someone's in trouble…" Tony said.
Tony runs toward the injured teen and helps him up.
"Hey you alright?" Tony asked.
"They…jumped me…" He said.
"Who?" Tony asked.
The teen passed out.
Tony was carrying him and sees that he's covered in bruises. His clothes were a little torn.
"Man this is bad…I got to get you out of here before the rain starts." Tony said.
Tony starts carrying him walking all the way to his house.
The rain starts to get a little heavier.
Tony is still carrying him towards his house.
"Almost there…" He told himself.
Tony soon makes it to his house; he lays the teen on the coach and puts a blanket over him. Tony starts to treat the bruises. Tony grabs the swab and puts it on the Teens forehead.
"I hope hell feel better." Tony told himself.
An hour later…
The teen wakes up and looks around rubbing his forehead.
"Where am I?" he said.
"My house…" Tony said.
The teen looks at Tony.
"You…are the one that brought me here?" He asked.
Tony nodded.
"Why did you help me?" He asked.
"I couldn't just let you out there to die…" Tony said.
"Thanks…"he said.
"Names Israel…but people be calling me Izzy" Izzy said.
"Izzy huh? Names Tony" Tony said.
"Tony huh? That's cool" Tony said.
"So what happened?" Tony asked.
Izzy looked down and shakes his head.
"They all jumped me…"Izzy said.
"Who?" Tony asked.
"These people that I hate…my enemies' man" Izzy said.
"People named Exel, Gabriel, Isai, and Roger they all ambushed me and jumped my ass" Izzy said.
"But why? What did you do?" Tony Asked.
"I don't even know man they all started hate'n but yeah man…you should meet the crew" Izzy said.

"Alright but shouldn't you rest first?" Tony said.
"Nah…Well stop by my pad and ill change and well grab bikes to head over" Izzy replied.
"Alright lets go" Tony said.
Tony and Izzy walk out of the house and walks to Izzy's house.
"Well were here at my house" Izzy said while opening the door.
Izzy walks in and goes to his room.
"Feel free dude my casa your casa" Izzy said.
"Thanks" Tony said.
Izzy grabs another pair of clean clothes to put on.
"So where you from Tony? Izzy asked.
Tony walks to the balcony looking outside leaning on the railing.
"A lot of places…"Tony said.
"Why so many?" Izzy asked.
"We move a lot…" Tony replied.
"Oh…man that sucks" Izzy said.
"But yeah I'm from here…"Izzy said.
"You got any brothers and sisters?" Izzy asked.
"Yeah…just a sister named Vanessa and a brother named Marcus" Tony replied.
"Oh that's cool man" Izzy said.
"What about you? You got any brothers or sisters?" Tony asked.
"Yeah…unfortunately I got a brother…and older brother…he abandoned me" Izzy said.
"Abandoned you? But why?" Tony asked.
"I don't know all I remember is that he left me for dead…it was just him and I living together after our parents died; but all a sudden he stabbed me and left me for dead, I didn't even know where to go…so I lived on my own trying to survive…but one day I'm going to find him and kill him. For what he's done…" Izzy said.
Tony looked down being quiet.
"So yeah man…I see you at my school but you always quiet man" Izzy said.
"I'm always quiet…" Tony said.
"But why though?" Izzy asked.
Izzy walks outside with brand new clothes.
Tony looks up in the sky.
"Many things…"Tony replied.
Izzy grins and closes his front door locking it with his keys.
"Let's go get the bikes" Izzy said.
"Alright" Tony replied.
Izzy walks next door and opens the door.
"This is my storage room" Izzy said.
Izzy goes inside and grabs two bikes and takes them out.
Tony looks at them and his eye widens.
"Whoa…those looks like the ones I use in the organization motorcycle like…but only that it doesn't form into one…"Tony said.
"Alright lets go" Izzy closes the door and locks it.
Tony and Izzy walks down the stairs holding the bikes.
"Get on the bike and ride it" Izzy said.
Izzy gets on his bike.
Tony gets on his.
"Alright follow me" Izzy said.
Tony nodded.
Izzy rides away as Tony follows.
"Yeah man he lives close…everyone should be waiting" Izzy said.
"Heh…is that so?" Tony said.
"Yeah just down this street his house is there" Izzy pointed.
Tony looks in front of him and sees a house down the street.
Tony and Izzy stops in front of his house and drop their bikes.
"Okay wait here I'm going to get them" Izzy said.
Izzy walks to the door and knocks.

"Was up Izzy guess you didn't get enough of that beating huh?" Exel said.
"Shut up! Man why don't you just fight instead of having others fight for you!" Izzy yelled.
"What's going on?" Tony told himself.
Izzy punches Exel across the face.
Exel drops to the floor.
"That's was up man!" Izzy yelled.
Gabriel and Roger grab Exel and start to retreat.
Isai grabs out his dagger and throws it to stab Izzy but Anthony gets in front of Izzy and takes the hit.
Izzy's eye widens.
"Anthony…" Izzy said.
Anthony was stabbed in the arm.
"Damn this hurts" he tells himself.
