“Dude, what the hell?” I said to the street performer standing over me.

“I said this is my fucking block.” He gestured at his equipment, which looked like he did street magic. “When people see someone passing out fliers they walk faster. You’re fucking up my shit.”

I was caught off guard by his anger and physicality that I didn’t know what to say. Flustered for a moment, I managed to let out a squeaky, “Sorry, there’s no problem.”

He sidestepped over to my box of fliers and flipped it over like an angry chess player flipping the table. “Now there’s no problem.”

He was still rounding on me, hands in fists like he wasn’t done. I was just about to call out for help…

Dorian came flying into view, lowering his shoulder and slamming into the man’s side. Both of them stumbled. The crowd of pedestrians quickly gave them room as Dorian put himself between the angry street performer and me.

I couldn’t see Dorian’s face, but his tone was deathly serious for the normally lighthearted actor. “Touch her again and I’ll fucking end you.”

The street performer got to his feet and looked over his shoulder. To prepare to run, I thought.

I was wrong.

Two other performers came around the corner, wearing matching magician’s tuxedos. Dorian was pound-for-pound a match for the first guy, but both of the newcomers had several inches on him, and at least 50 pounds. A dark look fell over their faces.

Are we seriously about to get our asses kicked by a gang of street magicians? I wondered, not really believing what was happening.

Dorian suddenly whirled around and grabbed my arm. “Run!”

Everything happened very fast. The street performers cursed at us, and a few pedestrians shouted. Dorian and I sprinted up Times Square and then down the next cross street, heading east. I didn’t dare look back as we ran as fast as we could while holding hands, weaving in and out of the people on the sidewalk. We ran for a full block before Dorian finally slowed. I glanced behind me. Nobody was following.

“Sorry,” he said, panting. “I thought for sure they were—”

Three shapes flew around the building at the end of the block, running in our direction. Even from this distance I could see the anger on the street performers’ faces.

One of them pointed. They ran faster.

“Shit!”

We ran across the street with the other crossing pedestrians, weaving and shouting for them to get out of the way. Traffic was at a stand-still next to us, and Dorian pulled me into the street as we ran around the cars. A taxi blared its horn at us as we slid across his hood, which scared me so bad I almost peed myself. Just as we reached the other side of the road, the traffic started moving again.

“Don’t run, pussies!” one of the performers shouted from the other side of the street. They were shadowing us from the other side, still heading east and running faster. Trying to get to the next crosswalk before us.
