We may or may not be seeing crime, a bit of violence, and romance here. The warning is just to keep on the safe side.

It's a long known fact that cities don't sleep. Not anymore, at least. They may have had their rest in their youth, when criminals were fledgling and the law was powerful. Evil was not tolerated in those days. Today, the streets are slick with evil's residue. The alleys are not safe. Not every business is wholesome and law-abiding. Today, cities don't sleep, because the wicked never sleep. They stay awake, always watching, always waiting for their moment...

The night would have been darker had it not been for the towering buildings with lights all the way at the top, and it would have been colder had the alley not saved the small group from the winter wind. There, huddled around a trash can with a fire burning inside, was a group of homeless, huddled together to share warmth. They were two women, one man, one little girl resting in her mother's lap, and one young infant, wailing into the night with illness. They listened to the muffled radio sitting in the windowsill near them explain that it would be a cold one tonight folks, bundle up, and don't stay out too late at night.

Before the end of the broadcast, more showed up, and not all of them were homeless. It was no longer a small group, but a small flock that gathered around the fire and around a narrow and heavy iron door. They whispered and murmured to one another about the creature they were waiting to see. Some came from other cities to ask for guidance. Some thought it was simply a hoax and they came to prove it. Some said it was an angel behind that reinforced door. He healed the sick, after all, and that must make him good. Some said she was a devil, lying in wait to claim souls with her dark magic. The claims grew more and more fantastic, even though most could not agree on whether or not the creature was male or female, or really, what the creature even looked like. The crowd felt a hush come upon them as the door opened and a young man in a three piece suit ushered the first guest in.
"The good doctor will see you now..."
