Personality:[b] I’m pretty straight to the point. I don’t like beating around the bush or wasting time. That’s when things go wrong. When we let those windows open up--. Nevermind that. I’m not uptight though, I’m pretty relaxed. It’s just when we are on a.. group outing, I like being in charge and when things don’t go as planned people get hurt. I don’t like to talk about my feelings. Don’t ask me about it either. My business is mine. If it was yours I’d tell you. When I’m not being moody, I like to have fun. I could sit around playing games with my friends all day, so long as it doesn’t turn into serious talks, then I’m out. My secrets are for me, and maybe my best friend.
So that’s when I’m with the Black Cat. Outside of that, I work at a bakery. I’m nothing special, but I am a pretty good baker. I can’t cook though, and don’t you dare say they are the same thing. Not even close. I am pretty people oriented and I’ve heard that it reflects in my work. I take my time to make things perfect for the person who ordered it. I’m in no sort of rush. It takes me a lot longer, but ultimately I make the best products. I’m naturally curious in all aspects of my life. Kind of like a cat, yet. But I don’t die.
[b]History: Growing up in a boys home may have been a living nightmare for some of the other boys, but I didn’t really mind. Having a lot of brothers was an adventure everyday, and I am thankful to have had a roof over my head. I always seemed to be getting in trouble. I often snuck out and picked fights with people, even at a young age. I was given a guitar when he was 11, and taught myself how to play. Of course I’m not the best, and I couldn’t tell you one chord. I just play what sounds good to him. A volunteer at the boys home, Miss Julie, would often take me and a few other boys back to her house and she would give us a day of play. We got to watch TV and do what we wanted while she made cookies and desserts and things of the sort. I always joined in with her. That’s where my love for baking came from. When I was 15, I got a job at the local bakery and have been working there ever since. Miss Julie bought me an apartment and I moved in there. Knowing she can just barely afford it, I plan on paying her back one day. I was introduced to the Black Cat from some of the older boys at the home, and I joined when I was 16. The guy that told me about us, Jason, has since moved on. He got married, and has kids, so he feels that this life is not for him. Yes, I was raised in a boys home, but I like to think of Miss Julie as the one who raised me. She read me the Bible, and taught me how to love even in the hardest situations. Maybe it's a bit hypocritical to go destroy people's homes, but they need to learn what it feels like to have nothing. So many of us came from nothing.. It's just not fair. They don't deserve to have so many things they want, when many people can't even get what they need. I met Maya when I was 17. She joined just after me. She actually came from a nice family, on the well off side. A lot of us were uneasy about her at first, but then she proved herself. She didn't feel right having so much when others had so little. Shortly, we started dating and fell in love. Maya is the most amazing person I have ever met. Her smile could stop crowds of people, and her heart was as big as anyone. One day a few months ago... There was a riot. The Black Cat of course got involved. Things got a bit too rowdy for the police's comfort and after many warnings, they opened fire. I didn't see it coming. I swear to God I didn't see it. But Maya did. I was right in front. I knew it was dangerous. Maya pushed me out of the way right when the man fired. She was so fast. I didn't have time... The next thing I knew, she was on the ground. Blood was spilling from her side. Her eyes were distant. She was fading fast. I held onto her. We were trampled and pushed by everyone, and still, I stayed with her. It was hours until the ambulance was able to get to her. And by that time, she was dead. I tried to give her CPR, I yelled and screamed but they wouldn't do anything! They just let her go. I couldn't though. I held on so tight it took three grown men to pull me off. And still I broke one of their noses trying to get to her. They took her body away and contacted her parents. The put the pieces together, and figured out she was part of the Black Cat. I wasn't even allowed to go to her funeral.
