Disturbed Peace

It didn't even take more than four minutes to get from here to there. A drive beneath moonlit skies was rarely ever a smooth one, especially through the twists and turns we were taking. 

Nightlife activities were always bustling around these parts, between the glaring neon flashes of nightclub life and the open doors of a rowdy bar around every street corner, the city streets would be even more crowded than they were in the day.

Took a few casual midnight strolls when I first moved over from country life, and from my experience, there was never a night where the air wouldn't be reeking with the smell of booze and the sidewalks littered with the ashes of burnt cigarettes.

Every night except tonight, however… tonight, the city that never sleeps finally slumbered.

Bar doors firmly shut closed, the dazzle of bright lights stayed off. From the inside of the passenger-side seat looking out… it really was quite the harrowing sight.
