STORY STARTER
You slide the bag across the table, the hooded figure opposite you peers inside. "Where the hell did you find this?!"

The Bag
I slide the damp plastic bag to him, his eyes dart down, confusion written on his face until he realizes what’s inside, quickly snatching it up and hiding it, looking around to see if anyone saw. He leans forward.
“Where the hell did you get this?” He says, the anger in his voice makes it feel as if he’s yelling, despite how quiet it really is. My head tilts to the side.
“Is this not what you wanted?”
“It is but..” His eyes dart around, trying to check if anyone is watching, he shouldn’t be worried about the others though.
“But what? I can take it back if you’d like-“
“No!” He cuts off and a smile crosses my lips.
“Well if I’m going to give it to you then I’ll need something in return.” I say, snatching the item back and shoving it in my pocket.
He looks at me, urging me to continue. “If you agree to work with me, then it’s all yours.” His face contorts slightly back to his usual anger.
“Fine.” He says standing and walking out, he knows I know where to find him. What he doesn’t know is what he just got himself into.
