Chapter 1: Unexpected Encounter

Anna's classes had just concluded, leaving her ravenous and in search of a place to satiate her hunger. As she roamed the streets, her eyes fell upon a distressing scene: a group of rowdy teens harassing an elderly woman. Swiftly, she approached them, her voice resonating with authority. "Hey! What are you doing to that old lady?" Her confrontation was met with dismissive retorts from the teen thugs, who commanded her to mind her own business.

The old woman, sensing danger, pleaded with Anna to leave. In an unfortunate turn of events, the thugs violently pushed the elderly lady and her cart to the ground, rendering her unconscious. Consumed by both anger and hunger, Anna's emotions ignited as she lunged toward the thugs, swinging her bag at them. However, one of the thugs managed to seize her bag, halting her progress. The situation escalated further, and they subdued her with forceful grips, their language growing increasingly vile.

In her fury, Anna lashed out defiantly, cursing at them and vowing retribution through her father. Yet, her words were stifled and became unconscious when a tall, commanding figure emerged from the shadows. With a series of powerful slaps, he meted out swift justice to the four teen thugs, leaving them stunned and subdued.

Addressing them with unwavering authority, he warned, "Your actions are disgraceful. If you value your lives, disappear from here and never return. Cross my path again, and you'll regret it." His piercing glare seared into their consciousness as they fled, remorseful and repentant.

With the thugs now gone, the fine young man turned his attention to the fallen old lady, helping her to her feet. The old woman, visibly shaken, offered a bow of gratitude.

"Sir," she stammered, "do you know this young lady?"

Inclining his head, the fine young man replied, "Nah, she just decided to jump into a mess she shouldn't have."

Expressing annoyance, he muttered, "What a pain in the ass."
