The streetlight flickers, casting a sickly yellow pool on the empty sidewalk. It's almost midnight, and the only sound is the distant hum of a dying neon sign. You check your phone, the screen's glow illuminating your face for a moment, before a shiver crawls up your spine. Before you can turn, a firm hand clamps onto your shoulder, pulling you back.

He's holding your arm now, grip tight, and his voice comes out low and rough. "You're coming with me." He doesn't wait for an answer, just starts pulling you toward the alley's shadows. you, what do you do?
