The moon was shining down the sleeping Sunrise City, only a few shops around were open under the calm,starfull night. Most of the citizens were already sleeping in their beds, awaiting the next day. Little did they know, there was a secret chase ongoing within the empty streets of the city...
The blue fox jumped off of a high rooftop and after a second of browsing his surroundings he looked at his bag full of jewelery. He thought for a second... Was it worth it? Was it necessary to steal these pieces of metal and ruin that jewelerist's career? But then, he remembered his reasons for stealing and all the doubt in his head flew away.. He looked around one more time, took a deep breath and started heading towards the old train station which was in ruins. Suddenly, he stopped. He heard footsteps behind him and quickly turned around. He saw an orange fox standing behind him. He knew damn well why the orange figure was here, but he decided to remain silent.
''You're pretty good at running away from the cops.'' said the orange fox. ''They struggled to keep track of you to the point where they asked me for help.. They thought my pyrokinesis could come in handy while trying to slow down a criminal like you.'' he continued.
No answer.
''Y'know, something tells me that you and your little gang aren't as evil as the chief described. I saw a lot of criminals in these streets, you guys are different, you especially...''
Silence.
''...Not much of a talker, are you? That's a shame, cuz that's why i'm here, to talk. I don't give a flying hell about the orders those people gave me, i have zero interest in capturing you. But there is something i want in return. Stop stealing from innocents. If you need money, you can get a job. Look at me. I don't have a home, nor a family. But i don't steal. I go to a fight club and earn the money, i have part time jobs, why shouldn't y-''
''Oh just shut it.'' the blue fox said with clear anger on his face. That outburst took the orange figure by suprise. He continued:
''You and me are NOTHING alike, Flame. Everyone knows you. You are one of this cities protectros, you are a hero, you are the pyrokinetic fox! And what about me? The son of one of biggest mafia leaders of all time, the dispiced ''criminal'' who should be thrown to jail at first sight, the ''Glitchy'' fox, the ''evil'' thief who steals for a living. Here is the question: WHAT IS MY SECOND CHOICE!? I CANNOT GET A JOB, THEY WILL ARREST ME IMMIDEATLY. STOP STEALING? OK , ME AND MY BROTHER SHOULD STARVE TO DEATH THEN!!! STOP TRYING TO PLAY HERO WITH ME F**KER, YOU WEREN'T HELPING WHEN I ESCAPED FROM JAIL, I DON'T NEED USELESS A**HOLES LECTURING ME LIFE!!!''
10 seconds passed. Both were silent. They knew what was coming. Glitchy dropped the jewelery bag, and the gem on his right glove started shining. Flame had to fireballs in his arms, ready to be thrown.
''Glitchy, i do not want to hurt you.''
''Too late, you reminded me how horrible my life is. You already did the fatal blow..''
