Artemis saves a girl from being beaten up, in the process he awakens to his powers


After a day of exploring out on his own Artemis had spotted 5 white cat siblings, 3 girls and two boys walking home from school wearing black blazers with brown slacks and brown dress shoes with the girls wearing skirts but with different color stockings also wearing brown dress shoes. Artemis can be seen wearing his full outfit silently watching them walk by from a high tree but right as he was about to leave he heard a scream and his right ear twitched. "Wait... could someone be in trouble?!" Artemis had then slid out of the trees branches to the ground below with some bushes and crouched so that no one would see. Turns out the group of cats got jumped by some juvenile delinquents with the girl with the ponytail with red stockings seen on the ground clutching her leg as the people behind her look scared as they are outnumbered 5 to 9. "HEY!" Artemis shouted. Everyone turned to look in his direction as the bystanders in the background just looked, he raised his fists as he forgot to bring his beast trigger or band to fight with. And charged recklessly at them. In that very moment Artemis Moonstone finally awakened to his powers with a faint glow of dark green magic along from his mouth and took down each one of the delinquents in a sloppy but coordinated attack. Some of them did retaliate with bats and other blunt objects but Artemis held out and did this sonic punch attack to knock them all down and then used a magic howl to scare them off. "And if I see any of you jokers again I will personally kick your asses again!" Artemis had a few cuts and bruises with a black eye on him but was generally okay as the magic faded away from him. He turned to the girl on the ground and helped her up as she looked like her knee was hurting more. "O-ow.." Said the unknown girl. "Wait get back down for a moment-" Artemis undid his hair tie and tied it around her knee as his hair fell down but brushed it out the way so that he could see. She stands back up as her two friends get her to lean on them as the people around them are recording the whole thing on their phones but were clapping at what happened. "Hey what's your name? The girl with the red hair I mean" Artemis asks. "My name is Amber and these are my siblings Anglea my twin sister Kassandra my younger sister with my two younger brothers Alex and Jake." Amber responds. "What's your name?" "Artemis" "Well Arthur thank you for saving me... i believe this is the first time we met?" "She called me Arthur again but i won't correct her because of me saving her and her siblings" "Yes it has, I was walking near by and I heard the commotion besides your leg. Are you okay?" "Yes I am t-thank you for saving me but you are a bit... damaged" Alex, the tallest of the siblings, pulls out his phone and flips on the front camera showing Artemis what he looked like. "You have a pretty bad shiner though my dude" he responds. "Oh... i will be fine, you all stay safe" said artemis as he looked around but saw uniformed police officers coming from the left and ran off pretty fast to the right. The Police officers tried to get his attention but had run away far enough so that Artemis was in earshot but chose to run away. After that Artemis ran back to the temple to hide his bruises, the cops had Amber and her siblings take statements as they were going to do an investigation about what had happened. And the video of the beatdown went viral in the small town with rumors of a wolf boy saving the Headmaster's eldest daughter from being jumped and possibly beaten badly.
