The parking lot lights buzz and flicker, stretching long, distorted shadows across the damp concrete.

His voice is low, devoid of emotion, but the threat beneath it is tangible. You notice the deliberate way his jacket hangs open, the cold glint of a gun nestled against his hip. He stands there, waiting, his silence more dangerous than any shout.
