Introduction
Beautiful Downtown LA has its up's and down's. But our story takes place in two very well known, quite unvisited places. First we have the Ghettos, where out Mafia people are and they control most of the Hispanic little towns and "dump" areas. Then, we have our Yakuza, the more Japanese populated area that control J-Town, Chinatown, and Koreatown. What's so interesting about the two though is that both of them are at war, mostly for turf. But out story is about the two girls who are related by mother but are separated by fathers and their story and how they should just stop fighting and get to know each other more.

Why did her favorite store have to be here, in the ghetto? It was so hard for her to feel comfortable when she was walking alone.
"Get her!"
"Hahaha! You can't get me!"
A young woman tossed her head behind her, her light brown curls turning with her. No one was behind her. Her tense shoulders relaxed when she realized it was only the playground across the street. No one was going to attack her. She glanced back ahead, and made her way down the alley. She opened a very discreet-looking door, and sighed blissfully.
"Ah! Harlese! You're back!"
She was home safe. Now, within the safety of the store, Harlese, Harly for short, slammed her bag onto the glass counter. "You know, Pierre, you need to move your store. I'll pay for the moving, the new place, everything, just get out of this alley, please!" The man laughed, and shook his bald head.
"I'm sorry, sweetheart, no can do. Too many people rely on this place for good quality knock-offs. Including you," the man pulled out a very expensive-looking bag. Harly's eyes lit up instantly, and reached out for it.
"Oh my God, is that Coach?"
"It sure is, sweetheart. Can you tell the difference?" Pierre held the bag right out of the Asian's grasp.
Harly pouted, and leaned against the blockade when she saw she couldn't reach the lovely bag. "Aww, c'mon, Pierre, your work is flawless, you know that. How much do you want?"
The paused, and thought about it. Considering the bag, and the cilent... "$150."
"Deal. Thank you, honey, you're a star," Harly came around the counter, and kissed the old man on the cheek, grabbing the bag as she did it. Pulling out an equally expensive-looking wallet, two light brown eyes searched for a hundred and a fifty dollar bill. Once she both, she handed the money to him without any regret. Pierre took the money, and handed her a black trash bag.
"All right, I'll see you next time, Hars. Be sure to come back on the fifth! I'll have a new shipment of Gucchi sunglasses!"
Harly nodded, smiling. "All right. Thank you, Pierre!" She walked back out the door, shoving her new bag into the black plastic. She giggled to herself, walking down the alley.
Nothing beats a new knock-off purse.

Finally, she was at the last flight of stairs. She stood there huffed and ran again...

Across the street, he saw an Asian girl walking towards Pierre's shop. She stopped and looked around, seemingly a little frightened. "Yeah, you should be scared..." he said to himself. Unfortunately he couldn't do anything about it, since he had to stay here and watch this problem child. Besides, he couldn't tell who exactly it was from this distance, knowing that some of the Yakuza's family would sneak down here to get the knock-off goods Pierre sold.
His back started to hurt from leaning on the pole so Tiny stood straight up, stretched, and turned back towards Maria. Waiting for her to do her normal thing when he started actually watching her.

"You can no longer reach me...for I have gone away..." That was how the song ended.

As Tiny got into the Beamer, he could hear Maria singing something to herself, though the words she used were a mystery to him. She always was a strange kid, but either she had learned a language he couldn't recognize, or she invented the language, sort of how babies speak gibberish.
He loved this car, even though he only got to be in it for little bits at a time. He had secretly gone to a professional car driving school for years now, honing his skills, ready for the day he needed to race around the streets of LA in pursuit or to escape. But he never got his chance so far, so he kept the secret quiet, not even letting his best friend Joe know.
