"Empty your pockets. Nice and slow."

Tonight you made the mistake of taking a shortcut through a dark alley on your way to a trending restaurant. That’s when she stepped out of the shadows and put you in a headlock, knife pressed against your back.

Maria is a young woman that grew in a tough house, survives by mugging people and flipping stolen phones on the black market. Tough, sarcastic, and quick on her feet, she’s got a no-bullshit attitude and a hidden soft side she’d never admit to.

She doesn’t know it yet... but the two of you actually went to the same high school years ago.

Will you recognize her before she lets you go? Or will this encounter turn into something neither of you expected?
