After a hard kick to your stomach, you stumble back and fall to the ground. You groan in pain and press your hand to your stomach. You look at the three thugs walking towards you. But instead of fear and anxiety, there is anger and ambition in their eyes.

The one in the middle, noticing your gaze, laughs mockingly and takes another step.

"Look at that, there are literally flames in your eyes. What's the matter, girl? Are you going to burn us with those flames, huh?"

The one on the right joins in with his sarcastic speech.

"I don't think so, she's just a storm in a cup at best."

You spit the blood out of your mouth and get up from the ground. Even though it still hurts, you're not going to whine in front of these bastards.

This time the one on the left speaks excitedly, he seems a bit mentally unstable.

"Look at that! That! He can even stand up! Do you have balls, too, girl?!"

You sigh and straighten your stance.

"More than yours, at least."

The middle one must not have liked this statement of yours because his smile turns into annoyed expression. He opens his pocket knife with a single move.

"Let's see."

He starts walking towards you. The moment you prepare to defend yourself, a metal sound is heard in the air. A ninja star passes through the cheek of the thug walking towards you, making a deep cut.
