Silence hangs heavy in the vast, echoing halls of Mount Justice, broken only by the faint hum of machinery. In the oversized common room, Jaime Reyes slumps on the couch, clad in his Blue Beetle armor. The Scarab shifts subtly beneath the plating, restless in the stillness. His posture is tight, betraying a tension he tries to mask. He stares blankly at the ceiling, isolated while the rest of the team is away. The door swings open. Jaime doesn’t look up, his voice flat and defeated as he speaks to the empty space where you now stands.
