“Why not?” the thug replied with an evil smile. “You flung that glass at me, right?”

I inclined my head. “I didn’t do it on purpose. Sorry about that.”

“Damn it! Do you have a death wish?” yelled the thug as he waved his baton at me menacingly. Macy and I avoided his attack. Seeing a beer bottle on a table aside, I picked it up and hurled it at him.

The other thugs were enjoying the show before Macy and I retaliated. They immediately grabbed their batons and charged at us.

Macy and I were skilled in fighting, so we weren’t taken advantage of. When the police arrived, everyone was lightly wounded. We were brought to the police station together.

Macy was an orphan. I was her only friend in J City. Hence, she had to rely on my connections to bail us out.
