Darkness
~By Flower446

I race down the alley.
The police are closing in.
The snow is deep.
A slip, a cry.
Darkness...

The bustling city of New York is a merciless place of no second chances. And for young Will Hayes, it’s a hard life. After being abandoned by his mother at the age of eleven, he’s learned to trust no one. His innocence was sucked from him, and he has been hardened to reality. Now he lives on the streets of NY and does his best to survive. Will he continue to live in loneliness, or find a true friend who can be trusted?

Will~
"Hope? What's that supposed to mean? That you really want something to happen in the future? Well, life doesn't work that way. I've learned to be hopeless in an unforgiving world..."

Chapter One: Before the Alleys
On the cold rainy day of October 21st, in the year 1995, an unwilling mother lay in the hospital bed. "No! I don't want him!" She cried. How could she have a baby? Her husband had just been arrested and she was alone in the world. The nurse's smiled faded quickly, "But Miss Fiona-" A quiet squeal came from the tiny bundle in the young mothers arms. Fiona looked down at her beautiful baby boy. How could she abandon him?

~*(+)*~

Eleven years later, young Will Hayes had been feeling the pains of growing up without a father. He is bullied at school, and comes home to a mother unwilling to listen to his problems. When he got home he tossed his book bag on the floor and headed up to his room. As he walked up the stairs his mother caught a glance of his now swollen black eye, "Will Hayes? Did you get into another fight?!" Will rolled his eyes and muttered, "Why should you care..?" Fiona sighed quickly then returned to her room. Unfazed, Will climbed the rest of the stairs up to his bedroom. Quietly, he shut his door and wandered over to his mirror. He winced at the large purple bruise around his beautiful blue eyes. Inside he was dying for someone to comfort him. To protect and love him. But that hope was soon crushed the next morning. As he wandered down to the small kitchen table he looked up at his mom who was already dressed and had her purse. "Eat quickly Will. I need to go get something at the store before I drop you off at school," She muttered as she walked over to the door. "I'll be waiting in the car." Will nodded and grabbed a bagel, stuffing it in his mouth as he ran off to find his book bag. After a desperate search through the closet, he found it and raced out to the car. He slipped into the passenger seat, "So, where are we going?" Fiona ignored him and backed out of the short gravel driveway. Once she was on the road she turned to Will, who was sitting quietly, "I need to get something from the bar.." Will nodded slowly. His mother worked at a small bar, serving the many customers who came for a drink. As they pulled up to the small parking lot, Fiona parked the car. She looked pale and sick, but Will didn't seem to notice. They got out and headed into the bar then Fiona mumbled, "Will, stay here, I forgot something from the car." Will nodded and watched his mother walk back out to the car. She got in a drove off. Just like that. Leaving him alone at the bar. Will was devastated and sunk into one of the chairs. He sobbed for hours and when the bar was closing he slipped out into the alleyway. Little did he know that the snow covered alleys would be his new home. As if welcoming him, a gust of snow and wind swirled around him. He slipped and fell, landing behind a dumpster. He felt dizzy and soon darkness overcame him.



Chapter 2: Darkness...
Four years have passed since Will was abandoned by his mother and he has lived on the streets ever since. Will strolled down the puddle-filled alley as he scanned the street for anyone to help. Yep. That's right. He liked to help people even though he never got anything in return. He spotted an old man drop his wallet and some kid approaching it. He took off across the street and snatched up the wallet just as the kid dove for it. He gave the kid a look, "Nice try." The kid glared at him, "Come on Man! I had it first..." Will shook his head, "Sorry. You'll have to be faster next time Pal." And with that he jogged off after the old man. Once he had caught up to the old fella he tapped him on the shoulder. The man looked slightly startled, "W-what do ya want with me?" Will smiled weakly, "You dropped this Sir..." He handed the wallet, that had years of wear on it, to the surprised owner. The man smiled gratefully, "Well, thank ya Sonny." He put the wallet in his pocket and carried on walking down the street, without anymore to say to the young man. Will's shoulders slumped. Why did he ever expect a reward..? Why did he hope people would care more? He sighed and scanned the crowds for anything unusual. He spotted a gang member approaching a young girl. Quickly, he made his way over to the girl and casually walked close to her. He was known by the gangs, and no one ever dared to mess with him. Many times, he had pinned a gang member to a wall or "knocked some sense" into them. The pick-pocket moved away and ran off down an alley. Will smiled to himself and moved away from the girl. As he walked down the busy street he wondered when he would eat next. He had eaten breakfast the day before, but hadn't had anything since. His stomach growled as he walked past a bakery. He stopped and walked back to the window that was littered with fresh donuts, bagels and rolls. Not to mention cakes and hundreds of jelly covered strudels. He decided to count his money and see how much he had. He pulled the coins out of his pocket and counted up $3.63. That was hardly enough for a decent meal. Sighing, he shoved the money back in his torn pocket and walked down the busy sidewalk. He figured he should save the little money he had, for McDonald's. Two gang members had been watching him and decided to steal the little money he had. They slipped out of the alley and one jumped in front of Will, the other circling behind. Without hesitation, Will threw a punch, landing it right in the runaways face. He then took off running down the sidewalk. He knew those two kids. They were bad news. Very bad news. The second kid took chase, "Will Hayes! You'll pay for this!" Will smirked as he ran, "I don't have enough money to pay you fools!" He heard a polices whistle behind him and he ran harder. Can't be caught.. Can't be caught.. He thought to himself as he turned down an alley. He heard and echo of a second police coming down the other end of the alley. Snow swirled around and blew against Will as he ran. He tried to keep his balance but the snow was thick and slippery. I race down the alley. The police are closing in. A slip, a cry, Darkness...

Chapter 3: The escape
Will's eyes fluttered open and he squinted against the bright light. Once his eyes were finally open, he recognised that he was in a hospital. It smelled very sterile, and he felt something poking his arm. He looked down to find an I.V. stuck in his arm and he swallowed hard. What had happened the night before? He layed back against the fluffy pillows as it all rushed back to him. Police. Lights. A slip, a fall. He took a deep breath, knowing that when he was released, they would take him to an orphanage. No... He couldnt let that happen. He reached down and unplugged everything before ripping the cords and shots out of his arms. Quickly, he got out of the bed and balanced himself against the wall.
