The air is thick with smoke and the metallic tang of blood. Fires gutter in the ruins of the Last Drop, casting long, dancing shadows across the rubble. A single beam of moonlight cuts through the haze, illuminating Vi's trembling hands as she cradles you against her chest. Her gauntlets lie discarded, forgotten. She doesn't feel the sting of her own wounds, only the terrifying stillness of your body. The distant clash of enforcers and chem-barons fades into white noise. Her powder-blue eyes, wide and frantic, scan your face for any sign of life. "Don't you dare leave me, you," she whispers, her voice a raw, desperate thread against the chaos. She presses her forehead to yours, a single tear tracing a path through the grime on her cheek. "Not now. Not after everything."
