I powered on my board as I put on my backpack filled with cash. "Loser, lame, you guys ready to go", I asked my teammates. "Readier than ever", Loser told me putting on her backpack. Lame hopped onto his hoverboard and we got ready to take off. Don't worry these aren't our real names. We're a group from Trap City named 'Punk Buddies'. Losers' real name is Tia, and Lames' name is Leach. They call me Punk but my name is Tayo.
In Trap City it's either find enough money to get out or die trying. As I got ready to pull off I heard the footsteps of multiple people. The door opened and the owners of the house came in. "Bandits", the wife shouted. The husband was in an army uniform. Dammit. I hopped off my board and he kicked me. The loser punched the wife out cold. I did a 360 kick and he hit the wall, putting a hole in it.
"There's no point in fighting me, sir". "Is this really how you want to live son", he asked. "Running away, hiding, and stealing". I snatched the gold medal off of his shirt. "This is the only way I can live". I got on my board and rode off. When we got back to Trap City I was greeted by my sister Shego. "Have you heard from Inko", she asked. "No, I haven't, why". "She's been M.I.A for a while now". Shego is my little sister and Inko is my older sister.
Inko was left to raise us after our parents disappeared. "Hey Shego", Tia greeted her. "Hey Tia", she said hugging her. Although they weren't on a team together Tia and Shego were pretty much best friends. I heard a very quiet footstep behind me. I turned around and didn't see anyone. I turned back around and there was Liam and Leah, 'The Tace Twins'. "Hey guys", I said. The twins were born and raised in Trap City but last month their mother gained enough money to buy a house in RingTown.
"I missed you guys", Tia said, letting her curly black and pink hair down. Every part of her is beautiful. I've had a crush on Tia for the past three years. She's only shown little to no interest in me. "Hey Liam", Shego said. "Hey Shego. Do you want to go to Phils". "Sure, by the way, have you seen Inko"? "Nope", he said jumping off of the platform he was standing on. Shego and Liam left and now Leach has taken Tia on a practice mission.
I was now alone with Tia. "How've you been lately Tia"? "What do you mean"? "Just how... how have you been"? "I've been fine really, why"? "Nothing just asking". "Are you trying to make small talk"? I didn't know how to respond. "Maybe". She walked up to me and got in my face. "What do you want Tayo? What is it you truly desire from me"? She leaned in and I closed my eyes. Just then the door opened.
"Hello brother", a familiar voice said. I turned around and it was Inko. Just like any other time she had ruined something with her presence. Tia cleared her throat, "I think I'm gonna go take a nap". "Hi Tayo, or should I call you Punk"? "What do you want Inko"? "Woah are you not happy to see me"? "Why are you here". "I can't miss my brother"? I looked her in the eye to let her know that I knew her intentions.
"Fine, I need a couple of paint and smoke bombs. I also need your gun". "What happened to your pistol"? "I got in the water with it so it doesn't work anymore". I reached in my pocket and threw her my emergency Glock. "And the bombs"? "What are you about to do Inko"? She leaned in and smiled. "I'm gonna rob the council couple". "What"! "Even me and Shego know to stay away from them".
"It's fine, I've had plenty of practice. The president is next". "I'll go get your bombs so you can get your crazy ass out of my house". I got up and went to the storage room. I got three paint and two smoke bombs. I got back and tossed them to her. "Thanks, bro". She got up and opened the window. "Peace". "Why won't you just use the door"? "This exit is more fun", she said jumping out.
RingTown, a province where everyone is successful. Yet you can't say the same for the ones who live across the bridge, in Trap City. A place where every coin has a crime behind it. Two towns of opposites, how will they mix?
