Short story

'Here is your pay check for today'
'Thanks sir!'
'Hey Alvin, are you still living with that dream? You know? People at your age should focus on your uni life and stop those fantasy dreams'
'Hahaha, I understand that, uncle Maslow, but I will never give up until I give it a whirl'
'Anyway, good luck with hiding secret from your dad, I hope your dad doesn't give a kick on your butt when he find out'
'he will never get a hint of my fantasy dream if uncle doesn't leak any word to him. Thanks anyway, see you tomorrow uncle Maslow'
'Hi, I am Alvin. This is a story of magic world'
'Mom, dad, she is here, i'm leaving now'
'Good luck in attending night class my son'
'Hey Alvin, have you heard the news about the guy who die with whole body getting burnt?'
'Yes, I heard it from the radio this afternoon, I think is the secret society doing too'
'It might be, those people have no mercy at all. How could they kill anyone so easily? Don't they still have a little humanity with them?'
'It is already be in this way since 7 years ago, I doubt they will have any of it. If they really have a little bit of humanity left inside the bottom of their heart, the incident will never occur'
'Sorry Alvin, I thought it has been 4 years since then and you have already forget about it'
'Seriously? How can one person forget about the incident of their own sister being killed?'
'I understand, but if you keep it this way, y you will get yourself hurt one day'
'Dont worry Jessica, I will definitely change this world using my own hand someday.'
'Okay, let's put this thing aside for now. Hurry up, I think the lecturer is already here'
'Let us park our bicycle here.'
.

Ring...ring...
.

'Hey Alvin, hurry up! I need to rush to the convenient store before 10.30pm. Mom asked me to buy something.'
'Don't worry Jessica, the store is just free miles away.'
.
.
.
'Finish shopping? Double check with your mom's order list, make sure you don't miss out anything like last time.'
'I had check a few times, I got evening she want this time.'
'Okay then, let's go, is running late'
.
.
.
'Hey Jessica, do you heard something? Is coming from this direction.'
'Hey Alvin, don't go there, we are suppose to run away from danger, not toward it.
'No, it sounds like someone is telling for help'
Both of them cycle towards the direction of the sound. When they are about to reach, they stop behind some bushes near basketball court. From the spot, they could clearly see the whole incident.  There are 4 guys with jacket they barely show their faces under their jacket.4 of them seems like bullying the youngster with green t-shirt in front of them. 1 of the guy with jacket is grabbing the youngster's shirt, it doesn't seems to be friendly at all. After some threatening shouts, 1 of the guy with jacket starting to pull out a bat under his jacket. The situation doesn't feel good at all. Alvin is feeling tense while Jessica is totally frighten and stunned by the whole scene. While Jessica is still recovering from her situation, Alvin has started to look around for anything that might help. After a few moment, he pick up some stones ready to throw at them. Just before he ready to throw, Jessica quickly stop him from doing that.
'Are you mad? They will notice us if you do that!'
'That guy is in danger, we should give him some help'
Without thinking twice about the consequences, Alvin throw the stones towards the 4 man in jacket. Of course, with the skills he has as an amateur, he will never be on target on his throw. However, the 4 man in jacket have definitely notice movement behind the bushes.
'We are dead now! I told you not to do that, didn't I?
Through the bushes, Alvin barely see 1 of the man in jacket is waking towards them. Ignoring Jessica's word, he quickly gather more stones, thinking that he is able to get rid of those bad guy with just stones.
After ordering Jessica to stay still behind the bushes, he dashes out and throw all the stones in his hand at one time. Next, he dashes forward and intend to hit the villain's face with his right fist. However, the strength is no match. The man in jacket grab Alvin's fist with his left hand. The next second, the guy knock Alvin out with a hard fist under Alvin's stomach and an elbow right after Alvin bend his body due to the pain from the fist.
(Alvin started to wake up)
Alvin slowly regain his consciousness, barely allowing some light strike in his eyes.
'Hey boy, stop sleeping already!'
One of the man in jacket give him a hard kick on order to wake him up faster.
'You got some guts, huh! Finding trouble with us? Wrong choice, hahaha! I am definitely going to make you regret this.'
Suddenly, the man remove his hood. This time, Alvin is able to view his face clearly. He has a red colour Korean hair style, sharp eyes with blue in colour, and is chewing a gum in his mouth.
Another man that is standing beside him raise his voice, 'Hey, we should keep our identity secret and never show our haves in public.'
'No worry pal! He is going to die here and now. But before I kill him, I can't stand the heat anymore. This hood is making me feeling warm, I have no choice but to put it down.'
While they are arguing, Alvin check around him and is glad that he couldn't find Jessica, he is thinking that it is glad that Jessica is safe. At the same moment, the youngster with a green t-shirt whisper to Alvin.
'I'm going to distract them, run while you can, there is no point for you to die here.'
Without waiting for Alvin's response, he charge himself towards those bad guys and buying Alvin some time. Alvin is then stunned and confuse by what is happening in front of his eyes. However, after 2 seconds, he regain control over his body and quickly run away from this. Of course, with only the youngster's strength, it is impossible to hold down 4 of them. Without losing sight of Alvin, one of the man chase over Alvin with full speed. Jessica is watching whole incident behind the same bush as since just now. After a few minutes of hesitating, she decided to seek help. She check on her bag, and pick up a smart phone cover with pink cover. However, right at the moment she switch it on, she realize it has run out of battery. She is panic and unable to think of any other way to seek help. As for Alvin whom is being chase by the men in jacket, he realize he is unable to get away from the man's vision because of his speed, so he start to look around for whatever he can make use of. Unfortunately, except for pebbles, dead leaves, and tree branches, there is nothing left in the area. Just before the moment he give up, a plan that he think that is perfect suddenly pop out from his juicy brain. He immediately stop at where he is and lie down on the ground. The next thing that happen in front of everyone eyes is that the bad guy falls down due to unable to stop from his speed in time.
Everyone including Alvin are surprised by what Alvin has done. He continue running and trying to think of another more efficient way to defeat this man in jacket. Of course, the fall won't buy time more than 5 seconds fire Alvin to escape. The chase continue, Alvin look around trying to find anything that is useful if possible. Suddenly, he see something flashy in a few miles away from him. Without further thought, he muster all strength that is remaining in his body and rush towards it. In his mind, he is thinking that it will definitely be useful no matter it is a knife or anything made with metal.
The moment he reach to a distance that he could identify what the item is, he see an antique knife on the ground, cover by some dirt. Without second thought of worry, he pick up the knife and turn around ready to face the guy head on.
'Kill him now Rex!! Use that thing!!' Screamed by the group of bad guy to ask the man in jacket chasing Alvin to kill Alvin. Rex pick up a silver ring and wear on his middle finger, and started to mumble some weird language. A strong gust of wind charged up around Rex. Alvin sense the danger and take few step backward. Rex charged up the strong gust of wind and charge right towards Alvin. 'I will end your life before you feel any pain!!'
Alvin try to dodge the attack but his speed is of no match to Rex's attack.
