I sat alone in the cafe, updating my book on Wattpad and sipping coffee. I was so engrossed in my book that I didn't even hear the occasional spill, laughter, and ding of the cash register. My hands moved fastly across my keyboard, And my mind moved even faster. But, for some reason, a certain voice brought me back into reality.

 I looked up to see two very tall men stand and roll up their right sleeves, displaying two very odd tattoos. I put my screen down and watched as they shook hands, but it wasn't the sinister look on one of their faces that made my stomach turn, it was the tattoos, and how they both slithered up and down the men's arms finally settling in a different position than they were the first time.

 I watched as one of them sat down, but the other left, I threw my computer in my bag, quickly drank the rest of my coffee, and ignoring my better judgment, I followed him.
