Chapter 1 - the weight of silence

We see a young boy writing something on a note book titled "my escape." in the background loud yelling is heard, the boy covers his ears and leaves in frustration. going for a walk he's name is ash he is meeting up with his friend, ark he's only friend really. while on the way he hears a whisper in his mind "how are you?" He reply's "I'm good" and continues walking. the scene shifts we see a young boy around 5,5feet tall with black Curley hair heading towards the park, where they are going to meet up. Ark looks annoyed. while heading there he sees ash and his face brightens up, he runs towards him calling him brother saying "how are you it's been long since we last met up." ash reply's "I'm good it's amazing to see you again after this long." they then chat about school starting Ark asked ash "are you ready for tomorrow?" "Yeah I am it's going to be boring though." "yeah that's true." then we see them on the swings doing pull ups, they were doing a contest to see who could do more. "18…19…20… haaa that's the most I can do I'm out of breath" Ash jumped in hapiness saying "HAA I BEAT YOU BY 4." Ark said "it's okay there's always room to improve." " alright let's continue our workout" they continued working out. strangers passing bye gave them strange looks "what are those kids doing?" "I don't know but they seem nothing but trouble." " we better leave this place." whispers were heared but the two didn't mind they've gotten used to getting mocked and weird looks from everyone. then a sudden "hello" was heard ark turned around saying "who are you?" As he saw a boy around the same age as, them he looked kind and asked them to help him. "come on I need help my ball was stolen, and the kids are too fast for me to catch please help." ark rushed up as ash followed along Ash asked "where are they?" The kid said "That way follow me." we see four kids run into a alley way they followed. as they got in two kids stopped them from leaving ash said "its a trap again (sighing)" Ark said " what do you kids even want don't you have anything else to do" the kids started laughing saying " what are you gonna to tell your mommy?" Ark said "I'll take care of the kids behind us" Ash said "alright then I'll show the rest a lesson." they both sprung into action dashing towards the kids who were laughing ash threw a punch towards a kid who cought it. just like ash had planned. the kid placed him in a arm lock.the other got closer to punch, and just as it was about to connect a scream was heard from a kid, Ash had bit his hand than bending forward explosively he threw the other kid on top of the other. the kid started crying. the other one said using cheap tricks won't help you win.as he started attacking him then a thud was heard, the kid looked back but that was his mistake ash acted quickly kicking him swiftly on the side. The kid coughed out saliva groaning but it didn't end there, ash elbowed him on the spine making him collapse on to the ground in pain. as Ash looked back he saw ark had beaten with the two kids allready, and said "let's leave." These annoying kids caused our workout to be ruined." Ash said "yeah but hey we did get some action I was dying for a fight it's been ages." they headed off to their homes…
