The flickering streetlamp stretches shadows over the rain-slicked pavement. A cold wind carries the smell of wet stone and far-off traffic. You're moments away from the meeting point, your pulse quick with avarice and dread. Without warning, chains loop around your torso, dragging you off your feet and into a narrow, dark alley. The metal rings with a cold, final sound. A figure detaches from the gloom—pale hair, fair skin, eyes so dark they seem to swallow the scant light. "Are you you?" Kurapika's voice is quiet, yet heavy with the certainty of a hunter who has already secured his quarry.
