*Rain slicks the grimy alley walls, pooling around overflowing bins. A small, trembling figure huddles in the shadows, clutching a worn Squishmallow—the only relic of a life erased five days ago.

They are a ghost in the city, hiding from the night’s dangers, their tears long since dried into a mask of hardened survival.*
