2 The Thief

I hid under the table behind the merchant watching him do his daily routine of trying to sell those rugs.

"Buy the best rugs in town!" The Merchant yells.

I watch his wallet flop on his belt and think about all the food I can buy with the money if I can steal it. I crawl on all fours to get behind him while he's haggling with the customer. I can feel my nerves it's nerve-wracking because I've been caught before stealing. I slip the wallet right off his belt, I crawl slowly back the table I hid underneath.

"Stop, Freya not this shit again" The Merchant yells.

I start to bolt and run into a cart full of cabbages and the cart owner yells "My Cabbages".

I continue to Run.

Then a blur flies past me and the next thing i know I'm smashed into the ground. Standing above me was the guy who always caught me.

"Seriously, Freya this again" The Man says.

"Fuck you, Officer Kai" I growl.

He flashed a large smile and laughs.

I look at him with The Fire of hell.

"Freya, get up and walk with me" He says.

i begrudgingly stand up start the walk and he follows.

" Freya, why do you steal when you have so much potential" He starts.

"because I'm starving and they're not" I shoot back.

He laughs at my comment.

"If you wanna not starve then try and join the Army" He tells me " Or Better yet, aim higher and go for the Valkyries".

" Valkyries?" I reply.

" The group that Protects the country for heavenly and Hellish threats" He tells me.

I felt a spark ignite a fire inside me something to aim for.

I run away from him but turn before i get out off sight.

"Thank You Officer Kai" I say waving.
