The ragged crowing of a bird reached my ears, pulling me from my inner turmoil. Looking up, I found a beautiful raven perched on a stop sign a few steps ahead of me, croaking like he was flustered by something. I frowned, my eyebrows drawing together as I took a step closer toward it as if that would help me to understand what had it so spooked.

Deciding to just sleep the night off, I was about to turn in the direction I was headed when once again I saw something move.

The alley. I know I saw- whatever the hell I saw- coming from in there.

"What the-" A large hand clasped my shoulder from the back, a shrill scream escaping my lips at the contact.
