Cerberus Rising

It was raining. And it had been every day since I came to this city. The cold grey streets and hollow yellow lights made the city seem empty and lifeless. Despite the millions of people living all around me, I had never felt more alone.

I couldn't shake the uneasy feeling the gripped me like a vice since I had read that strange email this morning. It felt as if the walls where closing in around me and the buildings outside seems to resemble rows of jagged teeth. But I had to get out. The longer I stayed here the more hopeless things seemed.

So I left.

There in the hallway outside my apartment was my beautiful neighbor. Her long black hair was drenched and her soaking wet cloths clung to her seductive curves.
