"Alright, I'm calling the night.", Mr.Li said, retrieving the day's earnings from the cashier, "Close the shop, will you?"

The old chinese man waved to his employee before smiling and exiting through the frontdoor.

"Sure thing, Mr.Li.", Stark returned the smile while he finished stacking the old books which Mr.Li bought earlier that day.

A few moments after the owner left, Stark heard the shop door bell ringing and the door opening.

"Forgot your keys again, Mr. Li?", he chuckled, getting up from the dusty old floor to help his boss finding his keys... To his surprise, Mr. Li was nowhere to be seen and instead of the old jolly chinese man stood two men.

"The store is closed, gentlemen. I must ask you to come back tomorrow morning.", the brown-eyed employee said, even though he knew that those two weren't there to buy anything.

It didn't took long until one of them pulled the gun towards Stark.

"Open the register, man. Don't do nothing funny.", the other one said.

Stark slowly walked towards the counter, eyeing both men but mainly the armed one.

"Anything.", he corrected.

"What?", the talker one asked, a bit confused.

"You told me to 'don't do nothing funny' and the correct way would be 'anything funny'. The way you said it you were telling me to try something. Justing letting y'all know.", he smiled.

They didn't realized, but the path he chose to walk towards the counter was dangerously close to the robber wielding the gun. Stark could see the man's hand trembling and he guessed that this could be their first robbery.

''Damned drug addicts. At least Mr.Li is not here.'', he thought to himself as he approached the armed robber.

"Watchu you think you doin', punk? Want me to bust a cap on your ass?!", the armed one realized the approach, but instead of acting like someone who knew how to handle that kind of situation, he decided to play the machoman and shoved the gun's barrel into Stark's face. Big mistake.

In one fluid motion the young man dodged the gun's barrel and grabbed both the weapon's handle and the bandit's arm, pulling both towards him. At that precise time the second bandit pulled what seemed to be a homemade shiv and charged to aid his crooked friend.

Stark unarmed the first bandit and twisted the weapon-wielding arm, forcing the man into submission while tossing the weapon away amidst some of the books. Quickly, the second bandit reached them and attempted to aid his friend out of the submission by stabbing Stark in the arm. Stupid move.

Stark immediately pulled the first bandit's arm up and shielded himself with it, making the second robber stab his own friend.

"What the fuck, man?! Stab him, not me!", it could be heard between the struggle.

Stark used the second robber's momentum against him as he kicked the knee the bandit was using as anchor to the attack.

After a few exchanges, both bandits were unconscious on the shop's floor with a few of the items damaged and Stark with a few cuts from the shiv. He immediately reached for the phone and called the police number.
