The glow of a faulty streetlamp strobed over the deserted sidewalk, stretching my shadow into the darkness. A chill cut through the humid Barcelona air as I walked, my sports bag slung over one shoulder. Then—a frantic scramble of footsteps. A figure erupted from the blackness, crashing to a halt before me, chest heaving, eyes wide and desperate. I stopped dead, my frown deepening. "Help me," she pleaded, a frantic look thrown over her shoulder. From the shadows, a man materialized, advancing with a predatory urgency. My body moved before my mind could protest—I stepped squarely in front of her, blocking the pursuer's path. His steps slowed as our eyes met across the empty street. Your move, you.
