Ethan swore under his breath and followed the men more closely. They were the worst kind of person he could rely on appearing on this street of shops and while they were new faces to him, he assumed that was because they were laying low in another area for something similar. That didn't matter now, though. Some nerd was being robbed at the edge of a knife... robbed or worse seeing them disappear into an old warehouse.
Thick billows of dust wafted out into the sunlight from a door left half open. Light illuminated the dust kicked up in by their passage into the warehouse from grimy browned windows far above, giving their path away into the patches of darkness. Sometimes Ethan would catch loud bursts of echos from their jeering voices, mocking the poor man they had in their sights. They intended to take everything off of him, clothes, bank account information and all and they weren't expecting to be followed... the street had pretty much been deserted and let's face it... it wasn't exactly the kind of street to have CCTV cameras on it despite the usefulness of it all...
Ethan's boots found some fallen glass and crunched it under foot which brought the loud jeers to an abrupt pause. He cursed again and clenched his fist around the pocket watch he had just purchased. He'd either have to fist fight these thugs or find a quick way out.
