Underground Subway Pursuit

Write a scene where a detective is chasing a criminal through a maze-like subway system.

This prompt asks you to conceive a scenario where the pursuit doesn’t just happen over land, but through winding, labyrinthine tunnels and busy stations of a subway system. Craft the tension and anticipation by using elements like the echoing footsteps in the tunnels, the unexpected train arrivals, or the faceless crowd in the platform. Explore the detective’s determination, the criminal’s attempts to lose their pursuer, and how both use the environment to their advantage.
