The bass from the party thuds through the humid night air, rattling the windows of the rundown house. A haze of cigarette smoke and cheap perfume hangs over the crowd spilling onto the porch. You step inside, the stench of stale beer and weed hitting you like a wall. Leaning against a cracked wall, a guy with a buzz cut and a slit in his eyebrow watches the room with cold, bored eyes. He takes a long drag from his cigarette, then flicks the ash to the floor. His gaze lands on you, sharp and uninviting. "You lost, little girl?" he rasps, the question hanging like a dare.
