β€œI look at myself in the mirror a lot. A 9 millimeter equipped in one hand. This is what power, honor and glory signifies. At least in my world. The world of domination. A world where your manhood is tested. You have to defend yourself in these streets. Like Malcolm X said, "If someone puts their hands on you make sure they never put their hands on anybody else again." ”
Name: Khoury Numair Sutton (sounds like "Cory")
Nickname: "Hellfire", "The Muslim's Son"
Role: The Gang Member's Rival
Age: 17
Classification/Grade: Student, Junior
Gender: Male

Appearance: Standing 5'11", Khoury's figure compares more to the hard knock life. His figure seems more unique than usual athletes (Ironically, he isn't one). He barely has body hair, while his muscles obviously show. He as a slight tan, that makes him have an Ochre shade skin complexion, from staying outside so much. His curly short hair is the darkest brown; so dark that it looks black from afar. His eyes are somewhat scary, having dark brown irises. His clothing style is quite heavy, and occasionally he wears blue in variant shades, or sometimes black. He never wears red.

Personality: Khoury is known to be quite the unusual character. He occasionally sounds more philosophical than how the majority of high students sound. He may be a delinquent, but big words sometimes come out of his mouth; something that teachers don't expect. He may come off as careless of life, because he feels that there is nothing to live for, but success is what he also cares about. He is also quite a bright teenager for someone so dark and blue-blooded. His intelligence comes from his paternal grandfather, who had taught him quite a lot as a child. Even though he is in a gang, he is very individualistic, caring only for himself. He trusts no one. The reason is that he has never had the opportunity to do so. He is very confident, is usually one of the first to stand up and say something in the gang. He has an extreme dislike of

Background: He was born and raised in Compton, CA, by his father, Abdul (44). His mother, Eva, died at the age of 24 after a stroke concerning Arteriovenous malformation, or AVM, which she had been diagnosed with ever since she was born. Khoury was 1 at the time of her death. Most of Khoury's life had been devoted to both his father, and his paternal grandfather, Afraz (born James), who was a former Black Panther gang member, and activist. Philosophy was a big deal to him as a child, and it showed ever since he was in kindergarten. However, he was introduced to gang violence at that same grade level as well. He watched as a man had gotten killed when Khoury was walking from the bus top to his house. He would never forget that day when he saw the gangs in red.
However, his encounter with them came even closer as Khoury and his father were almost robbed by them, when Khoury was 9. From that point on, he hated that gang, who later discovered were named "Bloods". He spent most of his elementary school years defending himself from them. It heightened to a more serious hate, once he met Erica when he was 10. She was shot in a drive-by shooting, and he witnessed it.
Once he was in middle school, he soon discovered their rivals, "Crips", which he immediately wanted to be initiated in, and has remained there since.
Other: Besides him being a Crips gang member, he is also artistic. Graffiti is a big deal for him to illustrate expression. Besides his father and grandfather, he feels that Malcolm X is his role model.

β€œThis world isn't ready for me. To be who I am you have to have seen what I've seen. Blood, gore, death. All in a matter of seconds, but it doesn't phase me, I'm immune. I stand there as if it's nothing, as if the life I just took meant nothing. Gun in one hand, blade in the other. Is this what true power feels like? Is this how I want to spend the rest of my life? I can't back out now, I'm too far in, but I know one thing, life is no fucking joke."
Name: Jontae Mitchel Johnson
Nickname: Mitch, "The Kings Kid", "Blade"
Role: The Gang Member
Age: 17
Classification/Grade: Junior
Gender: Male
Appearance: Jontae wears baggy street clothes that are always coinciding with his shoes. He is constantly matching and sags rather low, most of the time having to be instructed by an official to pull up his pants. He wears a lot of hoodies and keeps a weapon on him at all times. He will only wear new items, nothing old or played out and is very choicy about what he wears. He is well groomed and takes good care of his body.

Aside from that, when in the streets he wears the color of his gang and the bandana associated with it.
Personality: Aside from his hardened exterior, inside is a kind hearted young man who sometimes regrets the decisions he makes but must go forth with them in order to please others. He's a singer at heart and writes poems in his spare time. He's very gentle but only with certain people. He will talk, but if it's not needed, then he won't open his mouth. Montrel was the first person he let in after his mother died and for some odd reason he continues to isolate himself from Montrel.

He is very intellectual, having never failed a test in his life, scoring normally high As and Bs. Though his past may be a bit murky, he still holds his head up high and still performs his duties without regard.
Background: He's the typical bad ass. He's been kicked out of every school he's ever been in. His father was part of a gang and when he was born, made sure that Jontae would be inducted into the gang. His father was one of the highest ranked in the gang and thus expected his son to take over his role whenever he departs. Jontae was born to Rena and Dontae Johnson. Though his father is incarcerated, he could recall the many times his father threatened to kill his mother or threatened to beat him if he didn't toughen up. Jontae's mother died of Lucemia his Freshmen year and thus he had to move in with his Grandmother.

His father knows about his sexuality but keeps it a secret and his grandmother supports him in all his various decisions, but Jontae often wonders if his mother approved of his sexuality. When he lost his mother, everything began to spiral downhill. His attitude changed towards his current boyfriend, Montrel, and things began to break down with the two. He began to lash out at his grandmother and at one time threatened to beat her if she said or did anything to provoke him.

He's become a ticking time bomb and was inducted into his father's gang shortly after. He's risen in rank hoping to soon takeover his father's old rank. The things he's had to do to get to where he is now is rather inconceivable, but he did them without blinking, without regret, without holding back, as if he was a heartless, soulless monster bent on carrying out the will of the gang. Conincidentally, the gang that Jontae belongs to just so happens to be the rival gang of Khoury Sutton.
Other: The On and Off Boyfriend of Montrel, so to speak...........

..........DONE!!!!!
