So she built a trap. Not some crude, garish thing, not the kind that leaves bodies in the street or headlines in the newsfeeds. The good traps are quiet, almost invisible.

As I heighten my senses, I feel the presence, but away from where I was standing. A sudden click distracts me, and suddenly I see the person move. Whoever it was, had activated the traps in the room.
