"Who the fuck crashed my car?"

Darius asked the question, not expecting an answer. The car was like his brand new girlfriend-  a polished gold Kelsa Drive Pro. (One of the most expensive and best cars in the world of Tetra.)

He stared at the pink haired girl, and then back at the blue boy peasant.

Staring at the pink, and then staring at the blue in disbelief.

Immediately,what brought to his attention was that the blue haired boy was a Mono. It was blatantly clear that he knew who to choose as culprit. He swung his arm forward and grabbed Blake's collar forcefully. It was an action to assert dominance, and to make the peasant pay for his innocent crimes.

"You owe me 5,600,000 Chronos*, you stupid peasant." He spat out. Blake made no acknowledgement to his anger, and his head moved slightly downwards emptily. Then his eyes traced upwards to stare at Darius. 

"I'm sorry sir." His voice was in a void of emotion, it sounded like shame but it was more like hopelessness and sadness. Darius looked up and down the peasant's shape and let go of his collar. "Give me the money, or I'LL SUE BOTH OF YOU!" He pointed fingers at both of them like a little kid demanding for a toy. Amber scratched her cheek in curiosity. "Sue...?" She did not know what "sue" meant. What was sue? Who was sue? Why was sue? She looked at Blake to find an answer, then her hands danced on their own and next thing she knew, Darius was slapped onto the ground. 

"UGH!" He yelled out. He looked at Amber in fury. "You fucking. peasant- how dare you-" 

"Oh I'm sorry- it was just a hand reflex!" She smiled, putting out her hand to help the angry boy. The angry green haired boy sneered at her and slapped her hand away. 

"You'll regret it..." His birthmark, because he was a Tetra, was a diamond on the middle of his neck. The mark glowed like a lamp. It was like a power unlocked. "I'll beat all of you up." He raised his fist, but before he could do anything, a hand touched his shoulder. He looked behind him, surprised to see a tall tetra boy with burgundy hair, marine eyes and tan skin. 

"Pele...?" Darius frowned and lowered his hands. Pele was more than half a head taller than Darius, and towered him. "Darius, I finally found you!" He had a relieved look on his face, then took out his phone to the latest new broadcast.

FAMOUS TETRA ROBS A BANK! BREAKING NEWS! 

*56,000,000 Chronos = Around 700,000 USD

"Seriously dude? Robbing a bank? You know you could have borrowed money from me, right?" The tall boy looked disappointed, but smiled out of shyness. "The bank was closed and I needed millions of Chronos right away, OKAY?" 

Darius wrapped his arms around his polished gold car.  "I'm sorry baby girl, I'll fix you up." 

"He is practically married to his car." Pele explained, "Sorry about that. Darius can be… a bit aggressive. He's all bark, but no bite." The tall boy assured them. He had burgundy hair and marine eyes and tan skin, having a scar on his right eye. He was partially blind because of the scar, but it didn't take away from his attractiveness. He had broad shoulders, warm charisma , and the air surrounding him smelled like forever roses. Amber stared at him in awe, because she had never seen such a handsome man before. "Nice to meet you. I'm Pele. You might know me. " Pele held out his hand, signaling to shake hands with the newly flustered Amber. 

Amber, processing this handsome tall man's face, and realized who he was. "Pele! You're the famous guy from the military, right?" "Yes, actually!" He replied, giving a cute smile. "I'm joining the military too!" Amber squealed out in bubbly enthusiasm. Blake spectated the conversation. 

"I'm glad that you'll be joining. the army has been growing exponentially these days!" Pele raised his arms in excitement to come. Amber twirled her hair and smiled shyly, trying to maintain eye contact but her heart was beating too skippy. 

Pele put his arm around Darius, attempting to cue the end of the conversation so he could calm his best friend down. "Don't worry about the damages, miss; I'll take care of it." He gave a wide smile at Amber and headed down the road. 

Blake was used to being on the sidelines of every conversation. He never talked more than three words at a time, usually repeating "Yes, sir.","No, sir.","I don't know, sir." like a spinning wheel. He had no opinion of his own, and if he had any there were just copies of his master's opinions. 

"Hey!" Amber looked at Blake in concern. "Are you okay, for real??" She was aware that he was a Mono, and some part of her pitied him. "Apologies for the inconvenience, ma'am." Blake bluntly dodged the question. He turned to leave, but her soft hands held his rough palms. "Wait-" She took out a yellow paper print flyer. "Would you like to join the military?"

"?" 

The blue lost boy stared at her, confused and disoriented, and threw off balance. Nobody in the last few years has ever asked if he was alright. It didn't matter to him, and it didn't matter to anyone else. Yet she only knew him for a couple minutes, and was so eager to help him. 

It was the first time in years, where he didn't feel necessarily…. helpless.
