To be able to bend a knife so easily, and to do that without a hint of fear, it was clear that the man who had appeared out of nowhere was far from normal. Every fiber of Gil's being was telling him that the stranger was dangerous. His appearance had been something outside his expectation, so it had taken him a moment to understand what the other wanted from him.
'Underdogs… shit, Bowden warned us that there was a good chance that they might come! But why would they come out just for a colour gang? And how the hell am I supposed to know who they are looking for? Hell, a good bunch of the guys in our group have green hair!' Gil thought. The dropout started to seriously get frustrated about how this person had suddenly interrupted his fun.
Seeing the lack of a reaction on the grey colour gang member's side, Kirk let out a big sigh.
“Yeah, I guess there are quite a few people who have green hair these days, huh? Since he's being chased by us, he might have already dyed it to another colour. Or maybe he kept it green, thinking that we would have expected him to change it?” Kirk started to go on, clearly not phased at all at the seriousness of the situation.
For Maya who had just been saved, when Kirk mentioned a 'green haired kid' there was only one boy who instantly came to mind. The mother still vividly remembered the day when her teenage son had come back, insisting on hiding his head under a hoodie. However, since it had been a rare free for the middle aged woman, Maya had decided to have dinner together as a family with her children. Naturally, Gary had not been allowed to eat with his hoodie on…
That day was a day filled with tears of joy and laughter all at Gary's expense.
'... is he talking about Gary? No, that can't be it. Surely it must just be a coincidence. This person is an adult, one who belongs to a gang, why would Gary have anything to do with someone like him?' Maya thought to herself.
The high schooler had seen the destruction of the other shops and with each one, his worries about the state of his mother had increased. To top things off, his one remaining red Mark was seemingly intertwined with the green Mark of his mother.
'Mum, please be safe!'
