The shadow is coming closer, and in its featureless face you can see a smile. As you momentarily freeze, your mind seeking an escape from the dead-end alley, your gaze touches your hand. Seemingly unguided, it has found chalk from somewhere and drawn a very real looking doodle of a knife on the chipping bricks of the wall. Dropping the chalk, you reach out for the knife and...
The very real body of the shadow lies on the filthy asphalt of the alley, slowly evaporating in thin wisps of dark smoke. Your conscious mind suddenly registers the approaching sirens of a police car, and you see something dark coming closer to the alley, seemingly to block your way. As you blink and turn around to look for some sort of escape, your eyes suddenly fall on a door slowly swinging open on the corner, though you can't figure out how you didn't notice it before - doors don't appear from out of nowhere, as far as you know.
