Enforcers 6 Those Seeking Family

The town of Lillies

During Age 124 great cities were built as a way to fight against the harsh cold of the planet and in order to keep the monsters known as Bestia Macht's out. These cities were built with powerful iron walls and artificial light that warmed up the entire city. However, due to resources management, not everyone was able to be placed inside of the cites. It quickly became clear that trying to fit the entire Nation of the English-Garden was impossible.

During Age 152 the English Government came up with a solution. And so the first-ever town was built. Unfortunately, towns were far smaller than a city, lacked the iron walls, and had next to no technology. In the coming years, towns began to become more and more crowded as they tried to fight for survival against the Bestia Macht's.

Now a town is seen as nothing more than a dumping ground where the poor go. Living in a town is truly awful. Despite that though a town was far superior to the villages that only a handful of citizens built in an attempt to survive.

Cloud walked down the street slowly placing one foot in front of the other. With every step he took he placed his cane out in front of him allowing it to see for him. His sunglasses reflected everything as he walked forward humming slightly.

With every step he took, he avoided trash that he couldn't see. With every swing of the cane, he felt what laid before him. His ears would twitch and his nose would wrinkle as he used them to paint a picture of his surroundings. Mist hung heavily in the air as it seemed to twist and bend around him.

For some people being blind would be a sin. For him, it was his stress reliever. His gift to the world.

Cloud let out a few more hums as he danced through the streets of the town. He passed by several people as he began to walk into the 'bad' part of town. Then again in this world, every part of a town could be called the 'bad' part of town. This particular town was covered with trash and nearly frozen over. The wooden gate was splintered and cracked from many nights of Bestia Macht's wanting in.

"I really do feel for these people..." Cloud said to himself as he walked. "They are all kept in their own cage. Well not just them. I too am in a cage after all. Everyday forced to stay in the town... Unable to explore the world for fear of those blasted Bestia Macht's. The Enforcers really do have it nice don't they... Being able to do what they want in those fancy cities... The ability to explore the world all they want. Meanwhile, we are still here in our cage while it slowly gets smaller... Constantly shrinking..." Cloud hummed slightly as he stopped walking standing in the street now as he waited for something. Many people looked at the blind teen oddly.

"For God's sake... Here comes that Blind teen again..." Someone muttered...

"Why the hell does he always speak to himself? And why does he always try to sound thoughtful and deep? Who the hell is he trying to impress?" Another man asked.

If Cloud could hear them he ignored them as he continued to ramble to himself as he walked over to a near, by alleyway. "Yes, I understand why the people are this way. Anyone would go mad if they were forced to stay in an area for the rest of their lives. That's why I am never mad at them when they pick a fight with me. Fighting is a great way to relieve stress. And as humans, it is only natural to attack someone who is weaker than you. That's why I am never mad when I get attacked. After all. Fighting is a great way to release stress-"

"You said that already! If you're gonna sound deep then at least don't sit out the same damn phrases..."

"That being said..." Cloud turned to the alleyway as seven thugs walked out. They glanced at him eyeing the blind teen up.

"Hey, buddy..." A rude voice called out as several men began to surround the blind teen in front of them. "Someone get a little lost?" They asked as they began to crack their knuckles. "Need some help?"

Several of the teens all let out a few laughs as they realized how easy it would be to capture this prey.

Clouds ears twitched as he listened. He could hear eight people in total. A slight smile crossed its way onto his face. "...That being said..." He repeated still talking to himself. "Just because I am not mad at them for doing it I still won't sit by and allow myself to lose to them. After all, I too am very stressed out. And. Fighting is a great way to relieve stress-"

'That's the third time you said that!"

"Who the hell are you talking to?" The goons questioned.

"Hmm... Eight of you..."

"Umm... There's seven of us?"

"One of you are female..."

"Nope... All seven of us are guys?"

"And none of you have any weapons."

"Well, actually I have a knife-"

Cloud brought his cane up slamming it into one of the men's skulls as he heard them mention the weapon. He twisted his body bring his cane up dragging it across their face, then in a flash he brought it down slamming it across the top of their head. The sound of metal on bone echoed as the man fell back almost instantly. He hit the floor with a loud 'thud' as the other thugs all stared in shock.

"You bastard!" Cloud stepped to the side dodging a punch that was thrown at him as he spun around the fist. He brought his cane up around the man's arm as he pulled it towards him then brought the arm down over his leg. a 'crack' could be heard as the man began to scream. Cloud didn't stop as he snapped the entire arm around his cane.

"I've spent years living with my condition. I've been attacked constantly because of the fact that I am an easy target. After ten years of being attacked, in the same manner, you begin to figure out counters to the simple strikes... Even a blind fool such as myself can figure that out." Cloud slammed his cane to the left smashing one of the men's heads into a brick wall. This motion also threw the one who's arm he broke causing that guy to slam straight into the side of a window breaking past it and collapsing. "That's three down by the way..." He stated. He wrapped his hand around the hair of the teen he slammed into the brick wall as he brought his head up then slammed it down into the brick wall again, and again, and again.

One of the men punched at the teen, but Cloud dropped the body as he spun dodging the punch. He slid back as he smirked. The mist danced in the air around the teens as Cloud lifted his arm up. The mist twisted around his arm as he smirked slightly. With a nod of his head, he jumped forward heading back into the fray.

Cloud danced around the men with a grace that even a long time ballerina would be jealous of. Every movement he made was perfect as he was completely in tune with his body. He dodged the blows as he swung his cane out. Anyone who got to close to him would find it slamming into their skull at a speed that would kill a normal human.

Some bystanders watched none of them jumping in to help the blind kid. One bystander looked like she was about to but soon turned and left heading for the guard station.

Cloud knocked another man out as he moved backwards holding his cane similar to how a man would hold his rapier. "Unguard!" Cloud joked as he swung his cane out so hard that it actually ripped a metallic pole in half. The pole fell down crashing down into the ice bellow as the thugs all stood horrified. "Well? Come on? I don't bite... Actually, that's an idea... Never used my teeth before? Hey, guys change of plans I bite now."

Clouds cane came out slamming it into a forth man's face. He continued to smirk as he used the man to slam him into a fifth guy taking five out. He reached out grabbing the ankle of one of the down men as he dragged him up and actually lifted the guy's body up one-handed. He twisted his body chucking the man into the air. The guy crashed down head first

"This really is the best way to relieve stress," Cloud said nodding slightly. "My body gets to stay in shape, I memorize new techniques, and I get to show off. I honestly can not come up with a better way than beating up low life thugs of society..."

"Damn it! Take this fight seriously!" One of the few remaining men stated as they charged at the blind teen in rage.

Cloud shrugged. "If you insist." He shot forward so fast he broke the ground he had been standing on. His cane shot up slamming it into the stomach of the guy who complained. He hit the man so hard he easily broke a rib or two and sent the poor bastard flying back. "That's six!" Cloud announced out as he pointed his cane at the last man who stood in front of him.

"I give!" The seventh said holding his hand up. "Just let me go! I don't want to fight anymore. I promise I won't hurt anyone ever again."

"I, know you won't," Cloud announced slamming his cane down onto the man's skull. "Seen this trick before. Last time I fell for it I received a bullet in the gut. Hurt like hell." His foot came up kicking the man's head back and sending him tumbling across the battlefield and straight into a brick house. "And if you did actually mean what you said... Well, then you're just a coward who let his friends get beat up and tried to run away so I still don't have any sympathy for you..." He finally turned trying to find the eighth person. He tried to listen but didn't really hear anything. "And that's seven... I know I heard eight originally?"

Clouds ears and nose twitched as he stayed silent. For a brief second, he heard the flapping of wings? He felt a hand suddenly cup around his hand confusing him. He couldn't sense any hostility coming from it though.

The hand pried his open and placed what felt like an envelope inside of it. Cloud was even more confused but before he could say anything the person pulled away and once again he heard the sound of wings.

"Your senses really are amazing..." A feminine voice said. "You were able to figure out I was watching you." The sound of flapping wings echoed out and Cloud felt the wind hit him.

'She must have been the eighth person I heard...' The blind teen thought as he crossed his arms.

"I look forward to seeing your potential grow Cloud..." The woman said. Cloud felt wind hit his body at a fast rate as the flapping got louder. Then slowly the wind got slower as the flapping began to grow silent. The next moment he knew he was once again alone standing in the now-empty street. The bodies of seven thugs around him.

Cloud stayed silent for a few moments before he suddenly realized he was now alone with what was most certainly a few corpses near him... "That was... Strange?" He said as he held the letter up. "Why did she give me this-" He placed a hand over it letting out a surprised breath of air. "Oh wow. It's in brail."

Cloud smiled slightly as he opened the letter and began to read.
