The time has passed and Choi Lee Mon almost forgot about the brave or rather stupid girl who tried to fight him. Why did he let her go? He asked himself. And even thow he couldn't answer it, deep down he knew that she played on his heart. She reminded him of Eun Chae. His sister. She was just as crazy and strong. His brain didn't see that, but his heart did. Lee Mon didn't even know why, but he gave her back her bracelet. Probably the same reason why he told her his name. He shouldn't have! And he shouldn't let her go. If he captured her he would easilly take so much money from her father. By the looks of her clothes she was rich. Maybe it would be even enough to buy a house. But he didn't think about it much. After a month or so he couldn't even remember what she looked like, or how did she end up in his hidding place. He was busy fighting for food and his reputation. And he had a pretty bad reputation. He was well known as the biggest thief around. And rather famous in the "underworld". Nobody knew his real name thow. Everybody just called him Speedy or Silent. Some people were really affraid of him. Some thought that he is a murderer and that he uses young girls. Well, all the bad things to those who took one step out of the line of the law. And he took more than one.

A fiew months after his confrontation with Shedis, Lee Mon was walking down the rich people street. Or rather sneaking down that street. He needed food. He was hungry and angry and that wasn't a good combination. Why was he angry? He just found out that someone knows his name. How could he have been so stupid!? It was obvious that this stupid girl told someone. So much time has passed that he thought that he was safe. An suddenly this!? It was dangerous. If that person knew his sister he could use her to get to him. And Lee Mon won't be able to do anything. But he won't be able to do anything as well if he will be weak from hunger. He walked to the shop hiding his feeling behind a mask. He smiled at the shop assistant and pretended to look at the cost of vegetables. Of course he didn't care about it. He wouldn't pay anyway. Usually he didn't steal food. He stole money and bought food. But this time... He had to go on an easy catch. He made sure that nobody can see and hid some meat in his big pockets. It was good that it was packed in the foil. He walked through the shop and hid the food. Then he chose one pack of chocolate cookies and joined the queue. He figured out that there was smaller chance for him to be taken as a thief if he was actually buying something. The line was long. He was nearly at the end when he spotted someone. A girl. She had short, curly hair in a pretty light brown collor. She was about his height. "She looks familiar." He thought. "Strange." And then she turned and saw him. She raised her eyebrowes as if trying to remember something and then...
'A thief!' she shouted suddenly. Lee Mon looked around pretending to look for that thief. In real he was looking for a way out. People around him acted like they were trying to understand what is going on, while the girl kept on shouting.
'A thief! There! A thief! Catch him!' She kept on pointing stright at him. "What to do, what to do!?" he thought nervously. Finally he mixed with the croud and tried to get out of the shop. He ran to the door hoping that in the chaos that the girl started he won't be noticed. Too late. People alredy saw who the girl is pointing at and were all blocking him. He was thinking fast. The door will not be his exit this time. When Lee Mon looked closely at the windows he saw that one of them is alredy cracked. He decided. Suddenly he turned around and ran to the closest shelves. He jumped and landed on top of them. People below gasped. The thief didn't stop and jumped to annother shelf. And again. "One more jump and I'll be free." He said to himself. Well, he knew that it wasn't completly the truth. He knew there will be concequences. His photo will most likely appear in the newspaper, and he will have to be extra carefull from now on. Why, oh why didn't he recognise that girl earlier? He knew now why she looked familiar, but how did it help him? Shedis... That wasthe name. He made the last jump, probably the most risky one. He curved in a ball and broke... His left arm. He was sure. The window was too strong! What to do now!? He stood up holding his damaged arm close to the body and looked for the exit. The door were still occupied by a crowd. The good thing is that they were too shocked to act. Only Shedis, the girl who made this chaos could move. And she did! She quickly ran to him so he automaticly escaped. Normally she would have no chance against him, he knew that. But now... His arm hurt too much, and he had to keep it close to his body. So he ran much slower than normally. He saw annother door and speed that way. The girl was right behind him! He opened the door with a kick and ran through. He ended up in a magazine, full of food. He hid between towers of boxes and waited. It was all so quiet. Too quiet. She didn't enter, he asumed. If she had he would hear her breath. He sighed in relief and checked his arm. It was bad. He couldn't move his fingers so it was definetly broken. He hissed when it hurt more and pressed it against his body. He wasn't free yet. It wasn't the end of that action.

He carefully looked out from behind the boxes, and listened to any sound that might tell him that the girl was here. He didn't hear anything. It was strange. Why didn't she run after him? He slowly left his hideout and looked for an exit. And there it was! The door for the supply guys! He happily moved towards it and opened it slowly. There were no people outside, so he decided to go on. He left the building and appeared next to the big and noisy street. He didn't like it, so he disapeared in a dark alley as soon as he could. It was his world.

He went to a well known bar, The Dark Moon. Well known for those who were "nobody" and a black hole for every "somebody". It was a place full of exiles like him. He didn't really find himself next to that kind of people, but he was one of them whether he liked it or not. He sat at the table and ordered a drink. Here nobody asked him if he was underage or not. Here even a kid could get alcochol. Lee Mon took one slip and sighed. Why? Everything was going so smooth. Why did she appear in the worst moment? She will have to pay for that. She will have to pay for it all in advance. After finishing his drink, the young outcast left The Full Moon and moved to one of his hideouts. He had a lot of them all around Paris. He didn't use the one where Shedis found him since their confrontation. "Why didn't I let Grumpy play with her?" he asked himself thinking about the fat man who lived below him. "She could never open her mouth again. I really regret it." But he didn't. He was glad thet he saved that girl from this kind of danger even if that was how her "thank you" looked like. Lee Mon decided to use more onground hideout. He went to annother dark alley where you don't want to find yourself during the night and saw a hole in the wall hidden behind the plants. Behind it was a small room aparently forgotten for a long time with stoned way in. Lee Mon took out his sleeping bag and lied down. It was a tiering day.

He was alredy on the edge of a dream when he heard footsteps. He woke up instantly, listening. Once again it was quiet. As if the person disappeared. "Maybe I just imegined it" he thought. He was alredy convinced about it, when semeone grabed his broken arm. Lee Mon hissed when an arrow of pain went through it. He looked for the one who did it and froze. In front of him was one of the Paris's heroes. He have heard about them before. They were running around in latex costumes and masks and saved cityzens from villains like him. They had abilities of which others could only dream and all of them were connected to one animal. This one here was clearly a mantis. She had long, dark hair and green costume. So far young Choi tried not to meet them, but he knew his luck couldn't last forever. He looked at the hero who caught him and held her arm that was holding his. He slowly pushed her away freeing his broken arm nad checked the damage. He was affraid of what she might do with him, but he hid it pretty well. The girl once again took his arm and and murmed something. Suddenly she started shining with a strong, green light. Once it faded away she put her other hand on his arm. The pain left.
'What do you want?' he asked as if she was not welcome. And she wasn't.
'I want you to go to the prison.' she responded. "And here we are." he thought. "I knew this day was about to come. I will spend the rest od my days rotting in a stone cell. But... No one will harm Eun Chae because of me. If I will be in prison there will be nothing I could do about it, so they will not get her."
'Okay, let's do this.' he said. The superhero girl looked at him suprised. No, not suprised. Shocked.
'You want to go to the prison?' she asked confused.
'Look here, girl. I have many enemies. I will be safer there than on the streets. You will have your job done. And we all will be happy! Maybe only except me.'
The girl sighed.
'I would bring you there in an instant, but what I want to do and what I should do are two totally different things. So I'll have to bring you to our master.'
'Why?' he asked. 'And who is he?'
'Because you have a good heart and he told us to bring all the people with good hearts to him. And about your other question... You'll find out soon enough. Let's go.'
'Woah! Do you really think that I will just go with you like a good doggy? I am not going to some crazy old fart who collects hearts!' he said angrily and observed the girls reaction. She went pale, and then red.
'You... You filthy bastard! You dare to insult him!? And who are you!? Just a common thief! A stupid jerk stealing from people who work for their food!' she was breathing heavily. Lee Mon was suprised. He didn't think that her reaction would be so... Dramatic. Suddenly she hit him in the head with something hard. Everything went black.
