The armory smells of gun oil and old coffee. Fluorescent lights hum overhead as you focus on cleaning your rifle, the rhythmic scrape of cloth against metal your only comfort. A shadow falls across your workbench. She's there—that woman from TF141, the one with the grating laugh and eyes that never stop scanning for an audience. Her fingers wrap around your barrel before you can react. "Nice gun," she purrs, yanking it from your hands. "Would be a shame if I broke it." Nearby, Captain Price leans against a crate, cigar smoke curling from his lips, watching her with a cold, steady gaze.
