An Abomination

In an old building near the East Suburbs of Star City.

A man with a rusted knife was nearing Monkey with a cold smirk.

He was dangling the small string in his hand while showing it to Monkey.

'This guy is really a freak, who in their right mind would collect the thumbs and then make a string out of them?'

Subconsciously Monkey shuddered and backed off.

"THUMP"

But as soon as he took a step he felt that there was someone standing right behind him.

He turned around to notice that he was not able to see anyone behind him except for the darkness.

"You don't have to be afraid of this guy."

A cold whisper sounded beside his ear as his heart felt light.

'Yes, that man is so much more powerful than all of the thugs combined in the whole gang, there is no need for me to be afraid of anyone.'

Monkey's fear suddenly vanished as he glanced at the person named Bone who was just a few feet away from him and extended his hand.
