Without saying a single word, he just punched the fat man straight in the face, breaking his nose right through. He kneed him in the gut, and winded to man. Unable to fight back from Xander’s heavy blows, the fight started to seem like a very one sided affair.

“touch a women will you, you mother fucking asshole” Xander screamed as he used his elbows to repeatedly strike the man in the gut. He then grabbed him by his shirt and pulled him towards the dustbin at the bus stop. Blood was spewing out of the mouth of the man as he was being dragged away. Xander then pulled him up, “say sorry you mother fucker say it” fucking apologise to her now or ill kill you right now. Listen to me asshole say sorry and ill leave you, you don’t say a thing and I will kill you. The fat man was way too incapacitated to talk. All he could feel was a numb and scary feeling through his body. Xander started to calm down, upon realising the damage he had inflicted upon the man. Just as he about to leave him on the floor, he realised something. The man had a gang tattoo. Now he knew he couldn’t just leave him. He was bound to get hit back. Though he was bigger than the average man, he couldn’t take on a whole gang of uncivilized man that would just chop him up without even speaking to him.

That fueled his anger again, he pulled him up and put him into the trash can, and started punching the life out of him. First the face, the man could barely open either of his eyes, they were both shut, sealed shut. “if I leave you like this, you will find me. Let this be a lesson to all the FUCKERS like you. Show some respect to women, mother fucker” that was all he said, as he smashed the man’s head in with his elbows blow after blow. His face was bleeding so badly that his front two teeth had already dropped out, his nose was flatter than it initially was, actually it had become a part of his face. Then he just kicked the trash can on the road, thinking he had beaten the guy in bad enough, for him to never be able to identify Xander as his assailant. Just as he thought things were over, a container truck smashed straight into the can.

Then he knew it right then, he couldn’t hear the people screaming at him for the past ten minutes. It was very much like a deaf man suddenly gaining the ability to hear. So relieving yet so scary.

Without blinking an eye lid, or thinking twice Xander pulled Lisa and ran. They ran across the corner of the block, and hailed an empty cab and got on their way home like nothing had happened. He knew now deep inside that things would never be the same ever again but he refused to let himself believe it. He kept on telling Lisa and himself we just got to change our physical appearance and well be fine that’s all we need. But he knew, that was the least of his worries. He knew, he was in deep shit now. But they were both too shocked to say anything.

“Lisa” Xander said in a slow and scared voice fuelled with concern, “you needa cut your hair short and dye it blonde or something, ill shave my head and grow a beard, lay low for awhile. We cant be seen together ok? Do you understand this is important. Don’t talk to anybody about it and we weren’t there ok? We weren’t.” he said that is a low quiet

and scared voice, not wanting the taxi driver to hear anything.
