He turns back to face me and I immediately drag out my dagger placing it in front of his throat. Unfortunately for me, he thought to do the same with his own silver dagger.

Where am I?
I look around at the different buildings.
This doesn't look familiar. How far away from home am I?
I've tried asking people for help but they all just look at me weird or completely ignore me. Okay.

I make sure not to trip in the dark and make my way over to the door. When I open it I see my neighbor. "Hello." She greets.
"Hey, something wrong?" I ask while leaning against the door frame. She wraps herself tighter in her cardigan. "The power has gone out in the building, just letting you know that the landlord is giving out candles and has everyone in the lobby with heating packs in case you get cold."
