The streetlamp flickers, casting long shadows across the asphalt. Your laughter echoes off the brick walls as your friends crowd around you. A beer bottle clinks against the curb. You bend to pick up your dropped keys. A sharp crack splits the night—a bullet rips through the air where your head was a second ago. Your friends scream, scattering. From a rooftop across the street, a silhouette lowers his rifle. "Fuck." He mutters, watching you rise. His eyes lock on yours. "You're harder to miss than I thought, you." The silence that follows is heavier than the gunshot.
