If you’re a student at Seattle University, then chances are it’s happened to you.
It’s midnight, and you’re on 18th Avenue and Union Street, contemplating how you’re going to navigate your way home. You have a choice to make: risk the walk, or call the Night Hawk.

In the near future, humanity is in a bind.
