-Sin Beach City, Dark Alley,1:34AM-
"PLEASE ANYONE! HELP ME!" A blonde hedgehog was running in the rain trying to escape her pursuer, she had some distance from the bar she swiftly exited and could feel the deviant chase her down and breathe down her neck like before. The hedgehog quickly turned the corner and tried to devise a plan into hiding her presence, in the corner of her eye she spotted a dark alley and for a split second was torn to choose as she looked down the barren road that lead to the innermost section of the city. She weighed her options until she heard footsteps splash from a distance, then louder, and louder as if each step was signifying the creep's relentless search for her. In an instant she dropped all doubts and chose to remain hidden in the dark alley's shadows behind a dumpster.
"Come out little girlie…" *splash* "I know you're around here somewhere…I can smell you…your perfume…you're stringing me along girlie." *splash*
The hedgehog tried to muffle her voice with both of her hands as she could hear herself whimper and shiver behind the garbage dumpster, hoping, praying, believing that the tyrant would just leave her alone.
*splash splash* "I'm getting closer girl…I hope you're ready to take me on all alone." *splash* "I know I'm a lot to handle, my previous 'mates' have sworn on it" *splash* "I'm getting closer little girl, come out and play." *splash…splash* "You're over there…" A gloved finger was pointed towards the dark alley.
She heard every word emitting from the stalker's mouth, realizing she made a terrible choice. She immediately thought on how it wasn't the first time she screwed up; she was only trying to have fun. When she stopped shivering and attempted to peak out to locate the stalker; the dumpster was moved aside with great force.
"Found you, my seducing prey." Rain started to pour even harder, the dark alley was lit as soon as thunder clapped behind the tall devilish cat that stood above average height hedgehog. "Now come back with me, and I'll be sure that the boys and I will show you a good time." The cat reached out and grabbed the hedgehog with one hand and used the other hand to muffle her pleading cries "But before that, I'm going to have fun with you, MYSELF!"
She started to whimper as she couldn't scream for help, that her pleas were ignored, that she was going to raped by a guy and his gang; she was just teasing him just 30 minutes ago. She was holding back tears and trying to plot her way out of it until it was made clear.
"There's no way out of this little pussy, I'm going to tear so many holes into you, that way the boys will all have they're fun, at the same damn time." The rapist started to hug to the hedgehog onto his body and slowly force her hand to reach down…
"You know. Taking rejection normally starts out with a simple no, but I can tell you can't get a clue can you?" 3 shurikens shot out from the deeper part of the alley and impaled the rapist's hands and his left ear. Upon impact the cat roared in agony and threw the hedgehog down near the dumpster.
"AAAAAARGH! What The Shit!" The cat started to pick out the throwing stars that hit his hand and threw them to the ground, he then lifted his left hand to feel on his left ear to realize he got a free ear job…only it was bleeding with a mess. "You, BASTERD! Who do you think you are!? Cutting the ear of Dejogen the Great! Come out you COWARD!" Dejogen was enraged as he couldn't see the source of his new cut marks and wanted to pound that source into nothing but dust.
The hedgehog tried to set herself up to take a look at her "almost rapist" and wanted to escape; yet she felt a compelling need to stay to witness who had heard her cries of help, who had decided that enough was enough.
"STAY WHERE YOU ARE MISSY! After I get my payback, I tend on screwing the life out of you for this!" Dejogen attempted to jump at the hedgehog to hold her down, but in a flash of silver, two more shurikens curve in from the corners and hit Dejogen's palms. "AAAAAH! Cut. THAT. SHIT. OUT! SHOW YOURSELF! RIGHT NOW!" Dejogen roared.
"Fine…if you want to see who's responsible for continuously animal-blocking you," from the depth of the dark alley, two white eyes peered out and emerged from the shadows. "It's only fair since I know this girl has zero interest in you." a metallic boot took a step forward; a symbol glowed blue under the two gleaming white eyes.
The hedgehog started to wipe her tears away from her eyes to keep her vision clear as she saw a second metallic boot step out of the shadows to reveal a body that seemed to defuse from the darkness only to form a black skin-tight jumpsuit that had a moderate amount of tuft hair peel out of the chest region. She started to stare in awe, as the blue glowing symbol she saw earlier was "H" that was curved outward on both ends and each side had a piece chopped off of the "H"; the top right and the bottom left. The only thing she thought was odd was how the two white gleaming eyes; was actually part of a mask that had two protrusions sticking out of its head.
"So YOU'RE the one that's been throwing these…'ninja stars'. You're nothing but a little runt." It was true, the masked vigilante was only slightly taller than the hedgehog girl by a couple of inches. "So you little basterd…how do you intend on dying today." Dejogen crossed his arms to seem intimdating…and to also hide his hands due to the both of them bleeding.
"Well…since you did attempt to rape this little angel here, I intend on making you suffer before you hit the grave." The masked stranger took off his utility belt that had countless shurikens, throwing knives, even throwing darts to ground and got himself in a fighting stance. " And believe me…I'm going to enjoy beating you to a pulp" The vigilante stated as thunder clapped behind them in the rain.
Dejogen laughed loudly. "You? A tiny little man playing hero? Defeat me?" He laughed even harder as he finished the sentence; closing his eyes for mere seconds. "Don't make jokes when Death is staring you in the face." Dejogen opened his eyes to find that the stranger wasn't near the hedgehog like before; instead Dejogen heard a whistle tune in his right ear and a loud boom of thunder as the masked stranger appeared behind him.
The moment Dejogen's eyes met the mask's eyes behind him; the stranger delivered a windmill kick to the hulking cat's right ear. Before Dejogen could roar in agony, the masked stranger vanished and reappeared in the blink of an eye in front of Dejogen. Before he could react, the stranger slammed his fist into his stomach, began to jab into the tall cat's chin, and deliver the final blow by dropping to the ground and jamming his metallic boot into the tall cat's left ear in sync with the thunder clap with the first and final strike.
After the last impact to the head, into the bleeding; sliced ear no less, Dejogen succumbed to the pain and fell down to the right unconscious. The hedgehog stared in shock as the masked stranger flipped himself back upright, only to swing his attention to her. The eyes of the mask stared her down for a lingering moment followed by a bone-crushing silence.
"You should've called the cops the moment you ran out of the bar." The stranger turned his back on the girl and made his way towards the knocked out cat.
"I…my cell phone's dead…it's kind of why I left in the first place." Rain continued to pour but with a steady pace. "I was just teasing him and…I guess I was stringing him along. I was just innocently flirting but I could tell he had the stench of liquor on him…" The hedgehog started to stand up on her own slowly. "I want to thank you..." The hedgehog started to slowly walk over to the masked vigilante. At this time she noticed he had two slot holes on his back. "For saving me from…that ungrateful DICK!" she yelled from the top of her lungs.
The masked stranger looked back and nodded. "No big deal…I was just on a rain run. I needed the exercise anyway." The stranger started to move the lifeless cat towards the dumpster and picked up his utility belt that only fashioned two pouches. The stranger then put two fingers on the right side of his mask and the "H" glowed blue again. "Yeah…I want police to come down to a dark alley on," The stranger stepped out into the streets to peer at the street signs; "On SW Ace Street and NE Torrent Avenue, check the dark alley near the abandoned building, there should be a thug responsible for the other rape cases, knocked out in front of a dumpster." The stranger looked back at the hedgehog. "I was just doing a night watch…you better hurry, guy could either die or have his gang look for him, so this time be swift about it." With that the stranger's crest stopped glowing and he removed his fingers from the mask.
"You know…I never caught the name of my savior…may I ask what is your name?" The hedgehog was drenched in water as her top was literally see-through at this point. She started to shiver as tried to cover up her chest region.
"You're cold…we should get you home…what's your address." The stranger felt it was time to go as he felt the rain start to pour lightly.
"I live on…Ulrich Road…the corner house just before turning into Lantern Road...but I don't walk with strangers, and you haven't answered my question." The hedgehog wanted to get his name so she could properly thank him by calling him his name, and then 'properly' thank him.
"Pisces…I go by the alias Pisces…and whom do I have the pleasure of rescuing." The stranger turned around to face the mysterious hedgehog he saved and spread his blue bat wings.
"Yuki…Yuki the Hedgehog. Thank you, for saving me I mean." Yuki walked up to hug Pisces, when she got close enough, she wanted to embrace him.
Pisces hugged her tight and flew off into the rain, Pisces flapped his wings to shield Yuki from the rain and started to descend towards the street Yuki mentioned until he landed in front of the one story house that was located around the corner, the house didn't speak as extravagant, but it did have an air of coziness and unwrapped his arms around Yuki.
Yuki snuggled against Pisces. "Will you…come inside with me?" Yuki raised her head up to the mask and started to remove it slowly, revealing the hero's lips. She gently brushed her lips onto his.
*BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP*
"WAAAH!" Yuki awoke from her slumber and found that she was in her bed and grasped her head as her blonde bangs came down on her hand. "It was a dream?" She looked around her bed to notice it was cleaned up, devoid of another's presence in the area, she looked to her right where her alarm clock was blaring '9:30'. "It felt so real…I mean the last thing I remember was pre-gaming…" Yuki grumbled as she took a look at her television set and saw her reflection, she was a mess, at least her hair was; she tried to recollect last night but with no result, she decided to follow her daily morning routine. Yuki yawned, picked up the remote, turned the T.V. on, and went to the bathroom to fix up her hair.
"BREAKING NEWS; Dejogen the Cat or Dejogen the Great has finally been captured, police force stated that they found culprit unconscious near a dumpster. Reports state that the beating that Dejogen received was from the vigilante known under the alias as 'Pisces'. Investigation has further discovered that Pisces is indeed responsible for this recent criminal beating as the vigilante had left his trademark shurikens that appear to have sliced through Dejogen's left ear and punctured both sides of his hands."
Yuki rushed out of the bathroom to recognize the image that showed on the television set displaying 'Pisces', a bat-like body in the black jumpsuit with the mask of two white eyes and the same 'H' symbol on his chest.
"That's him…that's the guy that saved me…but I can't remember what happened after I…" Yuki touched her lips. "Who are you Pisces…who are you?"
(Ok, not going to lie, I admit I probably screwed up a bit here and there, but please review and critique, I figured it would be a good idea to start off with a few forgettable characters.)
"Mystery shrouds around the anti-hero who deems himself Pisces, what mysterious ways has he taken to obtain such power, why does he only rescue the weak but abuse the injustice, what is Pisces angle...and what powers does he hold"
