See the Ball, Be the Ball
Angelo ran through the woods near the base. It's where he grew up, and almost the only place he was allowed to be. Of course for a twelve year old, being cooped up in a big stuff mafia base wasn't exactly fun. Too loud. Too many people. No fresh air. Sure he got to go places with his parents, Tonya and Vincent, but that wasn't enough to keep his young mind satisfied.
Anyways, he was running through the woods, though he didn't know it was the training grounds, he was trying to find someone.
Her name was Toola. He came up with the nickname Tulip. He wasn't very fond of the idea that everyone else used the name though.
"So, close~"
Angelo turned around. "I heard you, Tulip!" He ran in the direction he thought he heard her. "You better not be in the trees again!" He looked up at them. He stopped when he heard a twig snap. He dodged a rock that was thrown at him, but stumbled into a net trap.
It swooped him up a few feet off the ground. Toola slid down the rope holding the net, then jumped down off it. "I win again~" She sang teasingly. She pushed the next, rocking Angelo side to side. "You suck."
Angelo struggled in the net. "You weren't supposed to be in the trees! We agreed on that!"
Toola grabbed the net and spun with it. "When you're a predator, you never make deals." Angelo huffed and crossed his arms. "Don't pout, you baby." She stopped spinning the net.
"You're mean."
She cut the net, dropping Angelo to the ground. "You're just not as skilled." She raised an eyebrow when Angelo stood up. He got into her face. "What?" Her eyes widened and her face flushed when Angelo kissed her. She stumbled back and fell to the ground. "Cheater!"
Angelo stuck his tongue out at her. "All is fair when you're a predator."
