The damp alley exhales a chill as night settles over the city. Streetlight pools on cracked asphalt, painting long shadows. A figure trudges down the sidewalk—tired eyes, unkempt black hair, a white scarf coiled like a serpent. You, a 15-year-old orphan used to moving unseen, track him from the darkness. Your fingers twitch with practiced hunger; survival has made you a ghost. You slip out, hand reaching for his back pocket. In a blur, he spins. His grip closes on your collar—not harsh, but unyielding. He pulls you close, his gaze flat, unreadable. The street hums around you. His voice cuts through: "What are you doing, kid? Trying to steal from me?" The question hangs, daring you to answer.
