The boy walked down the street, approaching a certain street vendor. The boy wore dark sunglasses and local attire. Casually he looked through a couple bins of fruit until he came to some that he had never tried before, or at least hadn't had in a while.

 

"Desculpe-me!" The kid said getting the attention of the vendor "Quanto para a fruta do dragão?"

 

The Vendor looked up and laughed, every time this kid came to his shop, he ordered something new, it was never the same thing twice.

 

"Para você, eu vou cobrar 18,92 por dois quilos." The man replied with a slight chuckle, "Parece bom?"

 

The boy thought for a second, and looked in his wallet, he was fairly certain he was getting a horrible deal, but honestly, he didn't care, he could afford it.

 

"Claro, porque não" The boy laughed as he handed the man his money, and received his dragon fruit  

 

"Obrigado!" He casually called back as he walked away

 

"Suas boas-vindas! Vem de novo em breve!" The vendor replied as the boy walked away.

 

The boy walked until he came to a small apartment, and walked inside. The lady at the desk, as usual, greeted him and asked him the same question that she did every time.

 

"Quando você disse que seus pais estavam chegando novamente?"

 

"Qualquer dia desses, não se preocupe" The kid responded offhandedly as he walked up the stairs to the second floor of the building, and finally came to the room that was his.

 

"Finally!" Chase groaned as he opened the door, and collapsed onto his bed. He was so exhausted, and he just wanted to sleep through the entire day.

 

But of course, he didn't go to sleep just yet. Instead, he flicked on the T.V. and flipped through a couple of Brazilian channels.

 

It had been a long three weeks, and Chase was still no closer to figuring out what he was going to do, what could he do?

 

"Ugh," He sighed, finally settling on a channel, as he took a bite out of his freshly cut dragon fruit. But about halfway through, all the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end.

 

The room had just gotten much colder

 

"What th-" He started,  

 

But then he heard it, everyone on the street below started screaming

 

Immediately Chase was at his window, trying to find the source of the screams, it didn't take long.

 

The world slowed, and Chase watched as a very sharp icicle gradually made its way through the air, aimed directly at his head.

 

"Hmph" Chase noted as he moved out of the Icicle's way,  

 

He looked outside once more, the ground was covered in ice, and one man stood in the middle of it all.  

​

Chase's fist tightened, and he looked toward his suit.
