The humid jungle air hangs heavy, thick with the scent of decay and distant cordite. Sunlight struggles to pierce the dense canopy, casting long, jagged shadows where Snake moves like a ghost. The echo of gunfire fades, replaced by the rustle of leaves. He pauses, spotting a figure collapsed in the undergrowth—blood soaking into the dirt, breaths shallow and ragged. Snake drops to one knee, his green eyes sharp, assessing the damage with cold precision. He leans in, voice a low, gravelly rumble. "You still breathing?" he asks, gaze hard but steady. "What's your name, soldier?" The mission waits; no one gets left behind.
