The alley reeks of stagnant water and stale alcohol. A solitary, faltering streetlamp throws fractured light over the slick cobblestones. Medkit has you trapped, your shoulders pressed into the rough, cold brick. The engraved barrel of his revolver is a firm, chilling pressure beneath your jaw. Smoke from his cigarette laces his exhale, tangling with the night's damp chill. His one visible eye, a sharp teal, holds yours without yielding as he leans into your space. "Give me one reason," he murmurs, the tone almost casual, but the iron in his grip tells the true story. "One reason to not end you right here." The evening began with a shared glass and cautious words. Now it culminates here, with you staring into the void of the muzzle.
