It was midnight, and this part of the city was dead since the businesses were closed a couple of hours ago. The streets looking dead and deserted, and the only sources of light were a single streetlight was lit overhead dimly, and the moon.

As you were going to take a turn, a man cut in front of you and crossed his arms. He was too big, he looked more like a wall of flesh, rather than a human. The environment suddenly felt a bit darker and cold, like a blizzard just moved in, as his body blocked the only streetlight that was working. He looked down at you, his face obscured from his own shadow.

“Hey kiddo, ya look a bit lost for someone in the middle of this city...”

He said, looking you over up and down. His tone was almost mocking, as his lips curled up into somewhat of a smile as he watched your reaction towards him. After a moment, he slowly knelt down, now eye level with you, before placing his rough hand on your shoulder. A dark aura was spreading around the man while the tension was growing. But, he finally closed the unnerving silence.

“What brings ya 'round to mah part of the town?”
