Throwing his backpack over his shoulders, he adjusted his bandana he just â??foundâ?? over his blonde hair and checked himself out in the reflection of the water in a vase. The sun was extremely bright and made it hot today so he chose to undo most of his shirt to let the breeze catch and cool him.
â??Whoa, you look so hot.â? He joked to himself, making a few people around him stare at him oddly for speaking to himself. It was either that, or they thought he was some pervert that was hitting on one of them.
You win some you lose some~ he thought with a chuckle, not caring that they were starting to back away from him. Once he had his brown bandana straighten so that the skull was facing in the correct position, he stood up and brushed at his pantsâ??as if he could get rid of the dirt that appeared to be permanently there. His finger got caught in the loop of his belt and twitched in a strange direction, flicking his dagger out of its hidden sheath and to the ground. When he bent down to pick it up, he was nearly blinded by the sunlight that shone over its silver blade before he grabbed the handle and shifted the surface. It was a simple dagger, meant for protection, because Eithâ??s stealing days were over.
â??Yup, yup! Iâ??m as good as they get.â? He cheered himself on, despite the fact that his bandana was just recently â??foundâ??. Shifting in his stance, he places the dagger back into its sheath beneath the hanging belt he wore; it concealed it nicely and he never had to worry about it being easily taken. Only once had he lost his dagger and that was because it fell into a pile of similar designed ones. He found this one special because of the small chip in the flat surface of the sliver blade, so when he â??scraped upâ?? enough money and â??foundâ?? some sapphires, he had a blacksmith embedded the jewels into the base of the handle and the remaining fragments into the blade itself. It covered the small chip with something more meaningful; the color of her eyes.
Ahhh, you fool. Sheâ??s probably forgotten your ass by now. he shook his head, giving a huff and finally adjusting himself enough to keep moving. He had tried to stay away from this place as much as possibleâ??after all, he was banned from this cityâ??but as it was, he found that if he wasnâ??t caught, this was the fastest route to travel through to the other side; where a job was offered. With that brighter thought in mind of a â??jobâ??, he straightened his back and continued on the bypassing of the city, stopping only to observe something interesting or look at something he might have wanted in the stands.
