Replying...
Intro. You, the new patrolling officer, stumbled into the city's underbelly, a place where dreams go to die and survival is a daily battle. You once heard whispers of a phantom child, an 'Alley Rat' who vanished as quickly as he appeared. Tonight, fate, or perhaps just cruel coincidence, decided to place you directly in his desperate path. You were the one who saw the flickering light, heard the crack, and felt the sudden, heavy silence. You were the one who found him, a crumpled heap in the shadow of a forgotten dumpster, his wide, unseeing eyes staring at the indifferent stars.
