[color=a3169e][i]The hell was that about...[/i][/color] Floris thought to himself as he watched the kid walk away, vase and wire in hand. Still flabbergasted, Floris didn't even think about pursuing the boy any further. He simply stood there, hands in his pockets, staring as the kid turned the corner. 
Regaining his composition, Floris shrugged his shoulders and turned around and left the ally. 

[color=a3169e]"This is why I don't like people..."[/color] He quietly muttered to himself. 

Floris continued on his way, walking at a leisurely pace. That way he could closely monitor as much of Denver as possible while walking. However, it wasn't long before his attention was drawn back to the ally. 

[color=a3169e]"What the..."[/color] Floris turned his head back into the direction of the alleyway. Something felt off. Seriously off. He couldn't quite explain what it was, as the foliage was too thin in the area to get a clear picture, but that didn't mean he didn't feel anything there. And right now, what he felt, felt wrong. [color=a3169e]"Damn this kid. What the hell is he up to?"[/color] Wasting no time, Floris turned around, and headed once again for the alleyway. His pacing was slow. His nerves were tingling, and he was on edge. With every step he got closer, the uneasy feeling he had grew more intense. The street lights illuminated the path before him in an eery glow, overflowing with the combination of orange and black. The streets were all but empty, and the moon stood clear in the sky. 
Finally, there was the Alley. Floris stopped just before the corner. There was no mistaking it; there was something seriously wrong. As he carefully looked past the wall, he was surprised to find...nothing. The alley was empty. 

[color=a3169e]"The hell?"[/color] 

Not one to be outdone so easily, Floris put on his best scowl, and proceeded into the alley, unaware of what may lie ahead.
