The most noticeable thing about the person casually draped over the threadbare sofa in front of me was the
attitude that he seemed to give off. His face held a permanent expression of either indifference or displeasure,
although neither seemed to have much affect on his appearance. He had bleached blond hair, with part of the
front dyed black and he was wearing a tank top, a white one tinged with grey, that had a paw print on the front,
his symbol. He was wearing long shorts, just past his knees. He was inconspicuous, just as he liked it.
He wasn't an old looking person, perhaps in his late teens, but the air of youthfulness that most people his age
had was long gone. I suppose this wasn't shocking considering what he had done, things that would make even
the most toughened of men shudder to think about.

You see, Marco Walker was a killer.

You wouldn't think it to look at him but he was a monster, ruthlessly destroying anything without question or
thought, incapable of most emotions.
The evidence of his many fights and brawls were visible only by some of his features. His nose was incredibly
crooked, like a branch of a gnarled, old tree, as a result of countless breaks. His eyes were dark, showing no
glimmer of remorse.
Scattered round the torn sofa and the tiny dented coffee table in front of him were all of Marco's worldly
possessions; his well used collection of guns, a telephone, some money and a travel bag which was filled with
clothes and food.
Despite the fact that there was nothing particularly threatening about the small teen slouching in front of me, no
bulging muscles, no threatening glares, I was still scared. Scared from his reputation and his extensive weaponry
collection. Still, nothing compared to how his victims must have felt.
This is an updated version. Again nothing changed with the content, just the format.
This is a quick thing for my English class just as a practice for our controlled assessment.

That's the other one, the short story. Marcos' characterisation in this is as if he never got the scholarship (type thing) to his school.
Please tell me what you think! It would be much appreciated.
