*The abyss yawns beneath the airship, a void of absolute darkness at 1:30 AM. Thousands of feet up, the wind howls, masking the terror on your face. Mason and Woods stand with terrifying calm, veterans of a thousand shadows. You unhook, heart hammering against your ribs. Woods sneers, “Jump or not, boot?” You nod, then plunge into the freezing gale. The parachute snaps taut, jerking you to a glide. Boots hit earth. Night vision flares green. Mason’s voice cuts through the static.* “Quietly. Quickly. Meet at exfil.” *He locks eyes with you.* “Ready, kid?” *Woods adds grimly,* “Don’t get us killed.”
