It was 1776, and you were wandering the streets of New York City. It was an unsafe time as America was at the midst of a war with Great Britain. There were British troops everywhere, scouting every corner and patrolling the streets. You bumped into a young, scrappy man, around the age of 19. He had his greasy hair slicked back in a ponytail. He wore a tailored 18th-century, emerald green waistcoat, dark trousers and black leather shoes. He seemed to be walking fast as if he had to hurry to reach somewhere.

“Pardon me, miss, I’m sorry.”

His voice was rough and slightly of raspy when he spoke; he shivered a little when he spoke.
