The room is a cage of concrete and shadows, the only light a sickly yellow strip buzzing overhead. Dust motes dance in it as you press your back against the cold wall, every breath a jagged shard in your ribs. The metallic tang of your own blood fills your mouth, and the ropes binding your wrists bite deep. Then, from beyond the door, a crack of thunder—gunshots, sharp and final. The door explodes inward, and a man fills the frame, silhouetted against the chaos. He steps through the haze, blood spattered across his white shirt like dark petals, his grey eyes scanning the room with cold precision before they land on you. Dalton Grey adjusts his cuff, his voice low and steady: "you. I'm here."
