13 Inner strength

Peter's vision blinked and he felt the sensation of vertigo.

Looking around him and knowing that he has returned home he sighs with relief.

"Peter:Crystal when I'm away?"

Curious Peter asks how long he's been battling Gorr.

[Crystal] You've been away for two days, Peter.

Peter was surprised that he spent two days fighting with Gorr and feels a headache thinking about how to explain to his uncles why he was gone this time.

Leaving those thoughts aside, he decided to take a shower to relax.

While he was under the shower with the water falling on his body Peter is plunged between his thoughts.

In his head passing between his memories of the fight, Peter was getting better during the battle his body was getting better the more he fought.

He was learning and evolving.

Peter shook his hand during these thoughts and the feelings of his first fight and victory made his heart beat stronger and his adrenaline increased.

He calmed down and relaxed with the hot water passing through his body and enjoyed the rest of his bath.

Peter getting out of the bath and wiping his hair then wearing a tight black T-shirt with a dark blue shorts.

Walking towards the courtyard and arriving at the place he normally trains Peter decides to try on his condition a bit.

Peter was standing in the middle of the courtyard breathing in and out of the air in his lungs Peter activates his magic circuits which began to light up in scarlet red and flowing through his skin like lava.

Feeling the power circulating through his body Peter begins to make fluid and coordinated movements.

And as he did various actions the speed of his movements began to increase and he was continuing.

After several sections the movements of his actions were making the wind spread across the courtyard sending leaves through the air.

Deciding to finish up Peter took one last punch in the air that made a small shock wave form.

After he finished Peter decided to go away and had the headache again when he thought of explaining himself to his uncles.

"Sigh! "

Peter sighed and left went towards his house.

{Next Tomorrow}

Peter got up from his bed tired after spending a lot of time explaining himself to his uncles and luckily after talking several times that he was fine and that they didn't need to worry they left him.

Seriously, even his fight against Gorr didn't leave him as exhausted as last night.

Bathing and wearing his uniform Peter went down to the kitchen where he met Aunt May who finished breakfast.

"Aunt May: Good morning dear, ready for school?"

asks Aunt May with her normal sweet, warm smile that time has always favoured leaving with the same glow.

"Peter: Good morning, yes I'm ready."

"Aunt May:Great, little Mj came in those two days and how you've been she was worried"

"Peter:Urgh!"

Peter didn't like your aunt's tone and felt something was coming.

"Aunt May: And his friends were also worried that they even came to visit"

Aunt May's sweet, cozy tone was turning sour.

"Aunt May: And you didn't go to school for two weeks before that either, be sure you'll apologize to them when you see them."

Aunt May's tone was now authoritarian, giving her no opportunity to apologize.

"Peter:Okay"

"Peter nodded having nothing more to say"

"Aunt May: All right, now eat your breakfast before it gets cold."

Said Aunt May going back to her usual.

"Sigh!"

Peter sighs while he feels tired and starts eating his breakfast.

When Peter finished and then went on his journey to his school

"Peter:I'm coming Aunt May"

Peter warns his aunt while he's walking to the front door

"Aunt May:Take care on your way Peter"

He hears your aunt talking in the background.

A few minutes later while Peter is walking towards his school he hears the sounds of rushing steps.

"WAIT!"

Looking in the direction he notices the characteristic red hair.

"Sigh!"

As he sighs something that almost became a habit Peter then asks

"Peter:Did something happen?"

Mary Jane finally catching her breath after hearing Peter.

She looks at him who has a face you can't find reactions and emotions with flames in his eyes and finally speaks after looking at him for a moment.

"Mary Jane: I'll come with you."

Peter looks at her for a moment and then just gives her a light nod and then gets back on her way.

Mary Jane who saw him wave at her walked happily by her side from time to time looking at Peter.

Peter who saw her acting like that couldn't help but sigh and compare her to a shy cheerful rabbit with food

[AT SCHOOL]

When the two finally arrive at school a while that for Peter took a long time because of the silence that for him was strange.

Peter's sense of relief didn't take long when the students' attention turned to him.

"Sigh!"

Peter sighed again when he remembered the put he didn't like the schools.

Teenagers, they were quite complicated and sometimes meaningless.

As a murderer in his past life Peter didn't have to go to school like he learned everything he needed.

But he had some missions that he needed him to infiltrate and get information from the children of his targets.

And only one word "TORTURE" has always been complicated dealing with them primarily with girls.

Resigned to his cruel situation Peter continues his way ignoring all the looks and whispers of some.

When she arrives in the classroom and enters, she notes that when they realized her presence they immediately ran towards her.

"Sigh!"

While sighing Peter waited for his fate.

"Gwen: You're back!"

"Cindy:Finally returned"

"Allen:Yay got Peter back"

They spoke to the happy girls with the last one besides excited.

"Peter:Yes, I came back"

Peter answered frankly but with a little smile on his lips.

After talking to them for a while finally they went to sit down to wait for the class to start.

When the teacher arrived and began his class Peter was sitting with his hand supporting his chin while he was with seemingly thinking expression.

Many might think that his personality has changed since the incident with Mary Jane's father.

But they're wrong he just made him realize something he'd forgotten

Your difference with normal people

As a murderer he should know that, but he was refusing to think about it.

"No matter how hard they try murderers will always be different from others"

Peter thought about the phrase the person who trained him one day said.

Shaking his hand Peter shook these thoughts of his mind.

"I, from the bottom of my heart, have an absurd pride in being who I am.

I'm not going to say it's easy, and i never wanted to give up, but it's worth going on a lot more."

[A YEAR LATER] [Peter=13 years old]

(New York, 2009)

Peter was in front of a set of screens showing some information.

Information they showed was from your company that was founded a few years ago.

She was doing well by being behind only big companies and for now it's that Peter has plans for her but is not at the moment.

In the last year he had nothing important to mention

He and the girls continued their training and they're doing well

Quite well, with their effort along with the Spartan training that Peter decided to start all advanced to leaps and bounds.

Peter stops looking at computer tile

It's night out there being another normal night in New York

"Peter:um... I think it's right now."

Peter getting up and starts walking towards the window

In the darkness of your room a red light shines in your eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That cold New York night where you can see the moon in its highest splendor

While many stores are closing and others are opening to continue the nightly routines

In the dark alleys of that city sometimes fate plays in a strange way

"Man 1:Hey Girl stand still"

A sticky, strange voice echoed through the dimly lit alley

"Man 2:Yeah, we'll just lighten up and maybe let you go hehehehe"

It remained an equally sticky voice

"Woman:Hmmmmmmmmmm"

A woman "answered" with her hand in her mouth

The woman was quite beautiful young on average she was 20 years old with long brown hair and beautiful hazel eyes but all this beauty had been ruined by pure terror on her face

His hazel eyes were running wild with shock and fear his arms trembled holding the man's arms and his legs barely supporting his body

She was quite afraid of what to expect from someone in this situation

She being a secretary at a company that was coming home from a day's work

Having an unwelcome encounter with these two individuals and could barely react before he put a knife to their neck and held their mouths with his hands

It didn't help the other man's threats and the crazy look in their eyes

"Man1:Hehehe today we had a good harvest"

He said with a look overflowing with lust and a wicked smile

"Man2:Yeah, in those days we only had ugly bitches"

He answered another revealing it was not the first time

"Man1:Let's see how the package is hahaha"

When he finished speaking, he extended his hand toward the young woman's breast area

"Crash"

A tearing sound clearly echoed through the dark alley

The young lady's blouse that once covered the area of her breasts is now in pieces revealing her red lace bra

"Sniff Sniff Sniff"

Tears rolled down the woman's beautiful, young face as her eyes became blurred and she debated her arms in the hope of escaping

"Man2:Hahaha you have beautiful goods girl, pity we'll stain this beautiful body today"

"Man2:All right let's get started soon I'm getting anxious"

The second man began to walk towards the young girl

The young woman lost her strength in her legs falling to the ground and realizing that her nightmare was right in front of her eyes

When the second man was near the young woman and his hand was reaching her.

Something silvery passed through her sight and the man's hand dripped drops of blood on her face.

"Man2:Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh"

The man roared holding his hand that a kunai with a third of the blade was stuck inside his flesh

"???:Looks like I found some rats down those alleys."

A voice without emotion echoed through the alley and out of the darkness appeared a figure

The figure wore a kind of black British uniform with red details and golden threads for his uniform along with a silver mask over his face and a hood covering his hair. ( Allen Walker uniform)

But what certainly stood out most was his glowing blood-red eyes in the middle of all this dark alley.

The man who had the kunai in his hand tried to get up again even though he was in pain.

Without even looking at the red-eyed figure he threw another kunai on the man's thigh but this time the force behind the throw forced Kunai to half. [Kunai averaging 23.5cm]

"Man2:Aaaaaaaahhh damned"

The man roared with pain as he cursed to fall with his other knee shrinking with pain

"???:I suggest you stay quiet in the corner."

The other man who was in the same way in shock at the rapid events finally woke up with the cry and voice of the mysterious figure.

Quickly acting and hid behind the woman while continuing with the knife to the throat of the woman who was paralyzed in shock.

"Man1:WHO IS YOU? AND WHAT DO YOU WANT?"

"???:You don't need to know that"

He answered with a strangely calm and monotonous voice

"Man1: Quit fooling around or I'll kill this bitch here"

He threatened the man as he held the knife to the throat of the young woman who awakened from his shock

The woman now recovering from her shock and with a knife to her throat being held hostage was face to face with the blood-eyed figure.

She couldn't help but pant in shock when suddenly the three small black dots previously spun quickly and turned into a star shape and shone even brighter

The young woman felt the tightness in her arms and throat loosen and she felt herself falling beside the man.

A black blur passed through her vision and before her body hit the ground what would be probably the strongest and most comfortable arms she ever felt grabbed.

Now with her face close to the figure, the young woman noticed that the hood had come off revealing silver gray hair that with the little light in the place shone.

"???:It's all right, they couldn't hurt her anymore"

The figure spoke with a voice still monotonous but now loaded with confidence and security

And the young woman looking into the red eyes that transmitted heat and realizing that she was probably safe at last out of danger and had left the hands of those who wanted to hurt her.

Tears ran down and more tears poured down her face as she grabbed and held the person in front of her letting all her emotions go free.

"Aaaaaaaaaaah"

Sounds of crying echoed through the alley that showed the repressed feelings inside the young woman.

A few minutes later, perhaps no more than a minute later, the young woman calmed down.

"Arf Arf"

I was panting for the young lady trying to catch my breath

"???:Are you calm now?"

A calm voice called out to her and the young woman now realizing she's in the arms of the mysterious person...

Waving his head indicating that he was okay.

"??:Great, so put that on."

He spoke by showing a simple shirt that appeared 'melting' in his hand

The young woman, realizing she was without the upper part of her garment, took her clothes and wore them while she thanked

"??:Now that you're dressed, I need you to get a cop and call him in."

He answered the figure while observing the pieces of what was once a cell phone scattered on the floor supposedly of the young girl

"Woman: But what about you?"

The woman asked with concern

"???:I'm staying here to take care of them"

"???:Don't worry nothing's gonna happen to you when you leave, anything I show up"

He said the figure seeing the apparent fear of the girl and for the first time gave a smile reassuring the girl.

When the young woman hears him and sees his eyes she creates courage and I nodded to him

When she starts to walk with the first steps still looking fragile and then creating forces and finally almost at the exit she turns and looks at the figure with red eyes.

"Woman: Who are you?"

The young woman creates courage by wanting to know that she's the person who saved her.

The figure turned her face and looked at her with her red eyes shining and a little smile on her pale face.

"Joker:Me? I'm Joker"

This image along with this phrase would stay in the young woman's mind for her life and would always bring peace and hope not only to her but also to many people

The young woman just doesn't know it yet, as it is a matter for the future

When the young lady disappears from the alley and the sounds of footsteps turn to the two figures

One panting and dropping pain noises while another was disagreed on the ground

Joker got up and walked towards the two of them and what was still awake watching the eye movements in their direction.

"Man2: What do you want?, What are you gonna do?"

"Zap buuuuzzzzzz"

Sounds of electricity echoed through the alley and electric arcs formed in his palm

A smile formed on Joker's face but different from what he had given to the young victim was gloomy.

"Man2:No no no no"

"Joker:Time for fun, so let's play?"

Shouted the man wanting to escape running but the damn pain reminded him it would not be possible

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH"

Sounds of pain and despair echoed through New York's cold night

Joker played a little with the two now tied between spasms and with foam coming out of his mouth.

Let's say that Joker left a gift inside both and will think several times before doing something like this again

And if you're crazy to do hehehehehe then

Joker then vanished into the darkness of the night

A few moments later red and blue lights along with some policemen and young victim arrived only to find two bodies tied up.
