The alley

As soon as she was outside, Jessica ran for her life. She sprinted down the street. She could see the exit, all she had to do was make her way through the crowd. The people made it very difficult to run, which slowed the reporter down. Jessica desperately tried to rudely barge past people, she pushed and shoved her way through.

The reporter suddenly stopped as she spotted security guards working through crowd. No doubt in search of her, Jessica concluded. Back around she turned, as she barged past the same people once again. She had ran back into the empty streets she'd just come from, no sign of a way out!

She ran down the poorer part of the carnival, where there were noticeably less people and the quality of attractions had dropped. She turned a corner and was faced with a dead end. The only route was an alleyway and a sign with the enticing "come inside!" Phrase above it.

Jessica weighed her options, as she glanced back and forth between the alley and the guards. She knew the guards would certainly prosecute her, and that would create public outrage and possibly ruin her career. She didn't know what waited down the alley, but it had to be better than ruining her life.
