The alley reeks of rust, spilled oil, and the metallic tang of recent rain. Shadows stretch like grasping fingers under a flickering, failing streetlamp. You press your back against the cold, damp brick, your heart pounding so violently it nearly drowns out the distant hum of the city. A soft, deliberate footfall echoes on the wet pavement.

He's savoring every second of this. What will you do?
