“FREAK!” One of the rag-clad bunch yelled. Someone else threw a rock. Arthic Foundling was curled in a ball on the ground. The other street-children were kicking him and throwing things. A whistle sounded, high and shrill. One of the Captains yelled at them to get away from his docks. A sailor was sent to pick up the child who was unfortunate enough to get the group’s wrath. 

The boy was little more than sticks and bones. He was probably nine years old. “What’s your name, boy?” The sailor asked.

“Arthic Foundling,” the boy said defiantly. 

“Well, Arthic, no need to ask where your parents are then." The man smiled. His grin was wide and his teeth were yellowing. His beard was clean and neatly kept and his face was gentle. A thought walked across his face and then was gone. The man's eyes twinkled. "Would you like to be a ship’s boy, then? I’m sure I could get the Captain to agree. You might be a bit young for it, but it would toughen you up sure as spit." He paused but the boy made no response. "We’re here until tomorrow morning. If you decide you’d like to come with us, come back to the ship and ask for the mate, that’s me. My name is Caleb.”

The boy nodded and then turned and ran toward the cliffs. The mate walked back to his Captain. “I think I got us a new ship’s boy, sir. He’s a bit scrawny, that’s for sure, but I doubt there’s much fight in ‘im. The last one was too aggressive, don’t you think?”

“I don’t know, Leb, I think I like a bit of fire. It’s your choice, of course.”

“Right, sir.”

Arthic ran until he reached the safety of his sheltered little cave in the cliffs. He’d discovered it while he was fishing for mussels one night. It was set back into the rocks and it had been pretty shallow. Arthic had stolen a few tools from a smith’s shop and taken to chipping away at the stone on rainy days. He’d pushed the cave a bit farther in and wanted to make a bend in the rock where his light might be more hidden from prying eyes.

He’d been on his own for four years now. When the man who found him, Derrik was killed by thugs, his wife Alyssia turned Arthic out of the only home he’d ever known. Arthic had no where to go so he wandered the streets, making enemies of the kid-gangs. He begged and stole to get by, and when that didn’t work he’d go to the ocean and find his own food. His father had taught him that before he died. 

The loss was older now, but it still stung Arthic. He huffed a sigh and started to make a fire. He turned the sailor’s offer over in his mind. His father had been a merchant captain on a fine vessel. Everyone one of his crew was hand picked and well behaved. Sailing on some unknown tub with the grubby sort of men his father disdained made Arthic cringe.  

“But what else can I do, father?” He asked. He stared at the fire until it was nearly coals and then pushed a few mussels into the midst to cook. He was tired of being cold and getting beat up by the street gangs. He never liked the other kids on the street. They were always bigger or meaner or faster. If they caught him in their territory, they beat him. If they found him begging, they beat him. Sometimes they’d go looking for him just so they could beat him.

Arthic died. :(
