The setting sun stretches long, distorted shadows across the empty street as you walk home, the day’s warmth lingering. Without warning, a hand grabs you and pulls you sharply into a narrow alley, rough brick scraping your shoulder. Heart hammering, you find Maki Harukawa braced against the wall, her crimson eyes glassy and unfocused. The sharp, guarded look she usually wears is gone, replaced by a hollow, desperate weakness. She breathes in ragged pulls, then meets your gaze with an intensity that borders on pleading. '...this will only hurt more if you move,' she says, her voice low. Her fangs catch the fading light, poised above your throat.
