"Go catch that damm brat don't let him go away again!"
Around fifty people were chasing a boy with blue hair and blue eyes dressed in all black who seemed to have stolen something from them.
They were jumping from rooftop to rooftop; it seemed he was gliding and running through narrow, dark alleyways. Overall, it was an intense chase for the mysterious object in the man's hand.
"Ah...these guys are really not letting me go are they?"
He gritted his teeth and threw a smoke grenade at the others but it only slowed them down for a bit.
"Guys just let me off the hook for this one today!"
Neither party was willing to give up on the mysterious object, so they all ran and kept running through the crowded areas of cities and again through the alleyways.
"Excuse me coming through!!"
He bumped into many people while running.
"Hay watch where you are going!"
"Sorry!"
"Catch that man! He is a thief!"
It went on for a while until the boy reached a dead end and came to a stop.
"Huff..Huff...you guys are really Huff...Huff something"
Then he looked at them with a grin and said, "Well, this looks like the end of the road for us, so...bye, guys!'
He again threw a smoke grenade, and when the smoke cleared out, he vanished into thin air...
"He got away!"
It was then that a muscular man with a long beard and black hair approached the guards, his eyes filled with burning anger and fury.
"You think I can't see that just who that brat is anyway stealing in broad daylight and where are all the special units!?"
"Princess Anna was going to arrive today, so every special unit is sent to guard here."
The man sighed and looked in the direction of where the mysterious boy was standing.
"Just you wait, brat, I will kill you with my own two hands."
Just a few metres away, the same boy from before was in a dark alleyway, trembling and struggling to stand up straight, but he couldn't, so he just gave up after some time and sat there.
A sunnden ethereal light covered his body, and his whole body began to change. His hair and eyes, which were blue in colour, became black and brown, but more importantly, he became a little taller, and he completely looked like a different person.

"Well...Well, Mr.Ethen, you are late again!"
A lady with black hair and black eyes was standing in front of him with her arms crossed as she stared at him with a deadpan expression.
"I..am sorry..."
The girl shook her head and said, "With that blue-haired bastard running around you should be more careful you've got a little sister at home"
Ethen looked at her and said in a carefree and humorous tone, "What do I even have for him to take off? If he tries to rob me, he would look at my financial situation and give me money instead!"
She looked at him and said with her eyes twitching, "So..what you are trying to say is that I don't pay you enough?"
He tried to change the topic with some small talk, "Uh..how was your day today?"
She sighed a little and told him not to be late from now on and carried on with her usual tasks.
Ethen then went outside to collect the daily newspaper to read it because his work at the flower shop was too boring.
"The mysterious blue-haired thief struck again this time stealing a very rare artifact!"
"The blue-eyed thief stole a mysterious artifact from the government. What is the identity of this thief?"
He looked at the newspaper and sighed and was in deep thought and did not notice a customer calling him, 'Maybe I should stay quiet and lay low for some time, this much attention is bound to cause trouble'
"Um... excuse me Mr?"
The girl got closer and tapped on Ethen's shoulder, "Excuse me, Mr?"
"Huh, what? Sorry!? Umm...Welcome to the Iris flower shop. What is it that you would like?"
Ethen froze for a few seconds because standing before him was a lady with blonde hair and ocean-blue eyes. She was so beautiful that Ethen couldn't even describe her voice, which was melodic, that he could sit there listening to it all day... it was almost as if she were an angel that came to earth, or maybe she was an angel...
"Can I have 8 roses, and please remove the thorns?"
Ethen came back to his senses, "Sure!"
Then he began working on the flowers and after some time he gave them to her, "That would be...1 pounds"
She took out the money and walked out...Ethen then sighed a little, and after that, a few customers came and went.
"Ok, you're free to go, Ethen. Don't be late tomorrow!"
Ethen was going home now, but before that, he had to finish off his other job. He walked for a while, then went inside a dark and narrow alleyway and teleported after checking if nobody was following him.
"Ah! Ethen, our best man, how are you?"
An old man with Gray hair and black eyes spoke to Ethen, looking at him with a wide grin.
Ethen glared at him with a cold expression.
"How much is left?"
The old man smiled and said, "Hmm... around...2000 pounds left"
Ethen slightly nodded his head.
"Have you decided to join us?'
"No"
"All of your skills are perfect for a thief teleportation, telekinesis, and transfiguration"
Ethen looked at them for some seconds and said in a flat tone "I said no!"
"...."
"Fine! It's your loss.."
"Also I will take a break for a month or so everyone is currently too conscious so it will be harder for me to steal"

When Ethen finally reached home, a little girl was waiting for him. She had black hair and brown eyes; it was his little sister, Lilly.
"Ah! Ethen where were you!"
"Just a little work came along, and that's it."
She looked at him clearly angry about something.
"I heard from Ms.Iris that you always arrive late at work even though you leave early?"
"Uh...can we not talk about that? I am tired today."
She sighed and looked at him for a while and said, "Come on your food is getting cold"
At the dinner table, she looked at her brother and asked, "So...how much is left?"
"2000"
She nodded her head, looked at him, and asked with a little bit of hesitation, "Do...you..think they will come back?"
He shook his head slightly. The dinner table became silent. He looked at his sister. Her face was sad it was like she was holding back her tears.
He smiled and said, "Ah! The food was so good you really are a great cook!"
His sister looked at him and smiled a little her sad face disappearing from her face.
"I will make more for you to eat tomorrow!"
After dinner, Ethen went into his room and lay down on the bed. His once smiling face had a hint of sorrow and sadness. "Will they come back, huh?"
