Darkness loomed above me, the few remaining stars twinkling sporadically, as if the void was suffocating them. I said goodbye to my friends at the comic book store, my usual Thursday night stop. I grabbed my bike and started pedaling, preparing myself for the arduous journey home. Shortly after, I entered the maze-like development aptly named “Fireside.” I was cycling at a leisurely pace, after all I had taken this route at least once a week.
