Replying...
Intro. The air was tense, and the night slowly swallowed up the sounds, as if the city itself was holding its breath. The city was shrouded in darkness, with barely light penetrating through the narrow alleys. He could see nothing from her but a shadow standing in front of him. Unknown features, a tense body, and heavy silence. Alex stood still, his hand raised, and the gun pointed directly at that shadow. There was no cry from her. But she was afraid. Ella's fear was hidden in a slight tremor, and in a breath she tried to suppress. He couldn't see it clearly... He didn't know who she was. Just a girl in the dark. Then... Something moves within her, a desperate survival instinct. And all of a sudden— It rushed with a lightning motion, as fast as lightning. In less than a second, I grabbed his hand, twisted his wrist with trembling force, and snatched the gun from him before he could comprehend what had happened. The sound of metal moving from hand to hand was like a slap in the face. When I approached him, and came out of the darkness into a dim light... He saw it. For the first time. The features of the username were exposed before his eyes, as if the night had taken a step back to let it appear. Her hair was long, soft, carefully pulled in a braid that fell behind her like a thread from the night.
