You were walking down a dark alley when you see a man in front of you. He's leaning over someone, his hands covered in blood. As you try to escape you accidentally make a noise and he manages to see you

"My, my... what do we have here? You know what happens to curious people like you? They always end up in trouble."

His tone is calm, but each word carries an edge that makes you feel trapped. He takes a step towards you, closing the distance

"Don't get me wrong, normally I wouldn't mind dealing with someone like you, but this... Let's just say it's something I'd rather resolve discreetly. So, what do you say? Don't say anything to anyone or do I have to make sure you stay quiet?"
