You try to flee

Your feet splash against a puddle as you push them to move faster. You reach a dead end, nowhere to go or hide. Well, there is a dumpster on the corner, but it smells horrible. You honestly think that you´d prefer to suffer the aforementioned punishments for a year rather than climbing inside that stinking thing for even a second.

The sound of the mob gets louder. Maybe that´s not a hypothetical choice after all. Wait, there is a door on the wall next to you! It´s a far cry, but maybe …yes! It´s unlocked. You enter into some sort of warehouse full of boxes. Just in time too, the mob reached the alleyway.

“Where did she go?”

“Is she in the trash? Oh, that smell. No, she isn´t!”

“Damn, she got away!”

“Let´s look for her!”

Well, you evaded them, but now what? They are going to alert the whole town to your presence! You are not going to be able to walk down the street in peace. You will be like an outlaw!

“Let´s spread the word that we are looking for a woman, err, I think she was a blonde?”

“No way, she had fuzzy red hair.”

“And she had these huge honkers.”

“What? You call that huge? She was flat as an ironing board!”

“At least we can agree that she was pale, right?”

“What are you talking about? She had dark skin!”

“The hell are you all smoking? She was clearly Japanese!”

The group then has a heated discussion about just what exactly is your appearance. Some get close, but most are really far from your actual looks. Huh, maybe the alleyway was darker than you thought. No wonder these idiots thought you were the scammer! On second thought, you´ll not get into any trouble in the foreseeable future.

After the discussion, they all go their separate ways. You timidly step out of your hiding spot and breathe a sigh of relief. That was too close. This is what you get for doing favors to strangers.
