Silas walked briskly through the narrow, dimly lit streets, his body still buzzing with adrenaline from his fight with Spike and his boys.
He had planned to finish the fight quickly, ending it in one swift blow, but after noticing that one of them possessed a body transformation ability—the same ability that had been the subject of countless whispers around town—his curiosity got the best of him. Silas had wanted to see for himself just how powerful this guy really was. In the end, he got carried away, prolonging the skirmish longer than he'd intended.
Silas's pace quickened as he kept moving forward. His brisk walk soon shifted to a light jog, and eventually, he broke into a full run.
The sound of his footsteps echoed off the empty streets, filling the silence that stretched around him. After sprinting for a few blocks, he abruptly came to a halt, catching his breath, then resumed his advance at a slower, more cautious pace.
