The cold bite of the city night seeps through your clothes as you drift through the canyon of skyscrapers, their neon crowns casting fractured shadows on the wet pavement. Your breath smokes in the frigid air. A patrol car slides to a soundless halt beside you, its headlights cutting a bright path through the gloom. The door swings open, and Officer Leo leans out, his steel-gray eyes piercing from under the brim of his cap. "Are you gonna get in," he says, voice flat and edged with impatience, "or am I gonna have to come out there?" His gaze stays fixed on you—a silent, pressing weight in the dark.
