A pair of children ran outside the candy shop, each with a bag of goodies in their grip. They started to play tag, one chasing the other, until suddenly, one of the pair bumped to a figure. The child fell, looked up slowly and found himself gazing at a green-haired man staring down at him. Before he noticed it, Sven suddenly gripped the child's wrist tightly, pulling him up to his feet without a word. But this strange thief didn't let go of the child, in fact he grasp the child tighter till the little boy winced in pain. Sven didn't respond to the ache he caused at all, and just blankly gazed at the poor frightened children, until finally, he pulls a dagger out of his belt...
Alarmed, the children started screaming for help. The one that hasn't been clutched so tightly begins to run away frantically, yelling to find aid. The child in Sven's grip however shrieked and sobbed while attempting to pull his hand away from the strong grip, but to no success. With a swift movement, the dagger found itself pierced through flesh as blood seeped out...but not the child's.
Sven's clutch on the poor kid loosened as the dagger that was stabbed behind his hand weakened his grip, the young boy slipped off immediately and ran away. Blinking, the thief stares at his bloodied hand for a moment before pulling the dagger out of his flesh and place it back in his belt. His eyes darted to the ground, a lone lollipop is there, probably dropped from the child's possession.
A small smile crept on his lips as Sven picked up the candy, unwrap the plastic and swiftly set it in his mouth. The thief seemed like he was chained there on the ground, with blood dripping off of his left hand, but smiling nonetheless, genuinely enjoying the only thing familliar to him.

"Trevor!!" A slightly agitated female voice called out as Lyssa ran after her baby brother. The little boy hadn't a clue where he was heading and nearly ran into a person in front of him with green hair. The four year old looked up at the person with a bleeding hand who ate a lollipop. He stared, blinking a few times as though in mesmerized thought.
"Trevor!" Lyssa called as she rounded the corner and let out a breath of relief as she caught up to the little boy, picking him up in his arms and holding him tightly to her. "Don't scare me like that..." She spoke softly, her eyes closed for a moment as she held him, fully relieved to have him back safely.
Lyssa then opened her eyes and looked at the man that Trevor had been staring at a moment before. "Hello." She said, smiling sweetly. "I'm sorry if we've been a bother." She then noticed his hand and her eyes widened slightly. "Oh... you're bleeding. I have something that could heal the wound and cover it." She offered, her voice gentle and kind, waiting for a response before doing anything.

Sven stared blankly at this girl. His lime-colored iris seemed to study her brother after that, his lollipop hanged inside his mouth with its stick sticking out at the side of his lips. He didn't reply though, merely bringing up his bleeding hand, removes the lollipop and set it at the other side of his mouth, sucking it.
"The wound will heal itself," he can hear his voice faintly speaking, though surprisingly clear, "It barely hurts."
When speaking, though, he eyes the child in the girl's arms the whole time. Then suddenly raised a bleeding hand, points an index finger at Trevor's forehead still with a trail of blood on his fingertip, then draws a circle of blood on the child's forehead. He blinked twice at that, then looks at the girl, "Trevor." He said to her. "What is the name of Trevor's...family?"

Lyssa took a couple steps back, raising her sleeve to whipe the blood off of Trevor's forhead and looked strangely at the man, holding her little brother close to herself. "We aren't from around here." She said in almost a defensive tone for a moment before relaxing herself again.
"My name is Lyssa. What is yours?" She asked sweetly again, forcing a faint smile, trying to be kind and polite. Though she felt something strange about this person.

"Lys...sa." Sven repeated very slowly, almost hissing at the 's' present as he eyed the road behind her. His lime eyes then suddenly flew back right at her, eyeing her with a titled head, "My...name?" He asked, seeming confused for a moment. And that's when his blank eyes looked a little bit alive for the moment. "My name." he restate, now with a bit more emotion than the last.
"Uhm...well, let's see." He took out a crooked sword swiftly from his belt, then skillfully swung it and shoves the girl right in front of her eyes the hilt of the sword with a name engraven on it. It spelled 'SVEN' neatly on it, "What does it say?" He asked her with a smile.

Lyssa took another step or two back as he pulled out a sword, looking at him strangely before glancing at the swords on the sword.
"Sven..." She said a bit quietly, holding her baby brother a bit behind herself, protectively as she watched him carefully, wondering if she should just run away. Her feet wouldn't move much more, though, so she remained, watching him carefully and trying to be polite as she can with the situation.
"So your name is Sven?" She questioned for confirmation as she watched him, unsure of his actions.

"So my name is Sven?" the strange guy asked her back with his eyes wide, his tone of voice now drastically contradicts his earlier empty ones. "Wow...My name sounded Europe-ish, don't you think? Haha!" He laughed lightly while placing back the sword in its hilt with a smile.
"So! What happened?" he asked in a less cheerful tone, then crossed his arms at the back of his hand, thoroughly didn't notice the drops of blood he left on the ground at his scarf that got stained by his action. "...Ohh! What a cute little boy!! Is he your son?"

Lyssa blinked a couple times, staring strangely at this person. Her eyebrow tweaked down in slightly confusion for a moment before she let out a quiet sigh. "He's my little brother." She said, trying to still be polite though protective, wondering what was wrong with this person.
"Ummm.... I'm sorry if this sounds offensive or anything but.... Did you hit your head or something?" She asked, feeling bad for wording it that way, but seriously confused and wondering why he acted like this.

"Hmmmmmmmmm...??" he hummed, his eyes traveled to the sky as he did. "Well, you could say that." His cheerful attitude now changed in a more relaxed, down-to-earth one, as his tone suggests. The lollipop in Sven's mouth made its way to the other side of his lips, a small bump appearing at his cheek, "I mean, seriously, what would your head be like if your tongue got sliced and your lips got sewn together? Just to avoid any words from escaping..."
His face looked so calm when mentioning things like that as his eyes wondered the vast blue sky. "Hey, doesn't that cloud look like a headless little boy to you?" He asked, pointing the said cloud with the butt of his lollipop stick, his lips puckered as he does so. Before Lyssa even gets a chance to look at the cloud, Sven walks off...but strangely circling around the siblings for about three times before walking towards the path opposite of where he just faced.
"Lollipop, pop, pop! At a candy shop, shop!" Sven sang merrily as he struts off with a bleeding hand crossed behind his head.

Lyssa held Trevor protectively close as this person walked around. She ignored the cloud, wondering what was wrong with this guy. She almost felt like running away quickly to avoid this seemingly crazy person. But something about him made her wonder. He gave her a sort of sad feeling as she watched him, wondering what had happened to make him this way.
It was like he had lost his mind because of years of something stressful. She wanted to follow him but she remained still in place as she watched him walk off. Trevor wriggled slightly, trying to get out of her arms. "Candy!" He shouted, reaching towards the candy shop. Lyssa just held him close to her, not letting him go as she still had her eyes on the man walking away.
"Okay, Trevor... I'll get you some candy." She said in a quiet, soothing tone, finally breaking her gaze off the other as she looked down and smiled lovingly to the small boy in her arms who cheered happily because she said she would get him some candy.

As Sven walks off, his eyes are still set to the clouds. "...Hm. Now it looks like a headless girl. ...Hahah. Funny." He chuckled to himself as he enjoyed his lollipop. But then, an old begger could be seen on his way, with a bowl of coins in his hands...
Sven's eyes flases as he saw the coins, and just automatically pulled out his sword and elminated the poor man, happily taking the bowl of coins and dissappears. A few seconds later, shiny coins fell from the sky, twinkling with the sun's light as it hits the ground...though, some are layered with blood spots on it...

Lyssa's eyes locked on some of the coins that fell, seeing what looked like blood on them. She took a deep breath as she stepped back against the door to the candy shop and entered. She set Trevor down inside and told him to pick something out. She stood close beside him as she watched out the door and windows, wondering what had happened. Why there was blood on the coins that fell and who dropped them. Whoever dropped the bloody coins must have been right above them.

From thin air, a young green-haired man appeared right in front of the candy shop, with a bloodied sword in hand. His back faces the entrance of the shop, and his scarf took time to catch up with gravity as it slowly flows down, signalling how light that gray cloth must be. Out of a sudden however, Sven turns around towards the shop, his eyes directly meeting Lyssa's through the window.
The lollipop is still in his mouth though, but his eyes are no where near freindly now. The clutch on his sword tightened as he met her eyes.

Lyssa kept Trevor hidden behind her, keeping far away from the door as she watched him, careful of what he might do. The store owner noticed the person she stared at and grabbed a sword he had behind the counter, prepared to protect his customers if the man came in and started threatening.

Sven took his time as he stared inside the shop, and then fully turning towards the shop. The door chimed as he entered, his left hand bleeding, just like the sword he's clutching at the same hand. His stare was kept to Lyssa though, the glint in his eyes changed every so often, though not many could tell the difference.
Before anybody could do anything, he quickly speds towards his target his left hand readying his crooked sword. With a swift arc, he stabbed the wall right beside Lyssa's head, his eyes still looking down towards the girl.
It wasn't long until he muttered, "Headless cloud." And his head drops, eyes getting heavy. His narcolepsy sickness is taking place, and Sven slowly loose his balance on his feet, and also his consciousness. He fell forward as his eyes shuts down completely, weighting Lyssa down.
