Dante growled and ran after him but no he didn;t jump down. it would take too much time. he followed by roof top, jumping when one ended. he was grateful for the close roofs....
he jumped again getting ahead of te running theif and anticipated the theif's actions. he ran quicker and jumped from the roof facing towards the way the theif was coming, and not a second later was rammed into. he had cut it close he must admit and his hands locked around the theif and they fell to the ground. he winced, "oh well that hurt."

He winced as he felt a slight jab in his waist. The sound of something breaking ran in his ears. He started to kick and punch but the man seemed to have him locked down. He started yelling and continued to fight...but it seemed to be of no use.

Dante frowned and reached up placeing a hand over the... boy's mouth, "sssh i'm not gonna hurt you so just calm down." now he probably had a reputation of being truthful, but if the boy was not of this town then he probably would not know of it. he blinked holding the boy onto the ground carefully but firmly so he wouldn;t escape getting a good look at him. strange... he looked.... like a girl.

He looked back up at the man, his eyes were full of fear. He didn't want to die for stealing a fruit...he was just so hungry. he wanted to yell but the hand was forced upon his mouth. people started to run up the street and smiled.

Dante was looking at the boy. he glanced around at the crowd. they were stareing like hungry animals. he shook his heasd. we are all animals in the end.... he had to add that one too. he looked at the boy who looked like a cornered rabbit. he frowned and leaned down whispering so no one heard, "listen i'll save you this time..." he wanted to add a but to that but he didn;t have the heart. the boy was rather pale really and looked starving... he frowned and looked around then his eyes narrowed at the people, "well shoo away now! i mean what could he have stolen that COULD be so horribly wrong to steal? if you're looking for his death, forget about it."

The crowd booed. "If we let him go without punishment...others will follow!" "Take his hand from him!" "The theif must be punished!"
He looked at the man oddly. It was unheard of escape once captured. Why was this man letting him go? People have become so rough hearted...this type of act was not known of by the boy. Some of the people that he lived with died over stealing food....why not him?

The people scowled but did as he said. They went back to the main street and started to look around again.
The boy blinked, this was so very weird. The man's hands were still over his mouth as he pushed the boy down the road. He was still very frightened and somewhat out od breath.

The boy looked at him silently. he nodded a bit and pulled his wrist from the man's grip. He looked up at him again then turned and started to speedwalk down the alleyway. he needed to find a safe place to eat the fruit he had stolen.

The boy looked back, not stopping. He took off one of his many silver bracelets and threw it to the man then turned the corner. He climbed up another poll and climbed onto the roof. he sat down and sighed, taking out the dragonfruit. He bit down into it and the juices ran into his mouth. It tasted so good. He ate the whole thing in the matter of minutes and sighed.

Dante blinked catching the bracelet and watching the boy disappear. he blinked and slowly smiled looking at the bracelet, "well... maybe first impressions aren;t everything..." his hand traveled over the metal and he placed it on and smiled. it fit stranegly enough. he turned and walked off going back to the main road. maybe... maybe he would see the boy again.

He looked down at the main street again and sighed. He was still hungry of course. He couldn't risk it again though. He laid back and watched the sky. Strangly enough...they day went by fast.
He watched the blue moon again, his stomach growled. He was still laying ontop of the roof. He was one never to say 'please, thank you' or 'exuse me'. he was a gypsy...raised with not many manners.

Dante was once again in his room stareing out at the street. he fingered his new bracelet frowning. that boy had intriqued him... he had no idea why though. he wanted to go see him talk to him... Dante shook his head and opened his window. he was on the seconds floor.... so what? he jumped out landing on the soft grass and bolted for it right back to town. maybe he would find him...
