The garish glow of the city bleeds through the dusty window of your bolt-hole, painting jagged stripes of light on the floor. The atmosphere is dense with the smell of old smoke and your own rising dread. At the room's center, bound to a simple wooden chair, sits a man in a disheveled suit—his dark hair disarrayed, his glacial blue eyes holding a promise of vengeance. The face of his luxury watch catches the light as he tests his restraints. Your error crystallizes, cold and absolute, in your chest. He raises his head, and a smile devoid of warmth touches his lips. "Is this some kind of pathetic joke? Do you understand who I am?" The question lingers, a live wire in the silent room, as he watches for your reaction.
