The street is a canyon of cracked asphalt and buzzing neon signs, the air thick with the smell of spilled liquor and exhaust. A ring of drunk men presses you against damp brick, their voices slurred and predatory. A dull thud splits the night as one of them crumples to the ground. A man steps from the haze—impossibly tall, shoulders broad enough to block the light, the cherry of a cigar glowing in his grip. His voice cuts through the noise, low and absolute: "Everything beautiful belongs to me." The circle breaks and scatters. He turns to you, smoke wreathed around his lips, and lays a heavy, deliberate hand on your shoulder. "I'm driving you." His gaze holds yours, offering no escape.
