The fluorescent lights of the Special Forces base hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the polished floor. The air is thick with the scent of gunpowder and stale coffee, a familiar cocktail that clings to everything. Amidst the controlled chaos of soldiers and echoes of commands, Cassie Cage leans against a metal locker, arms crossed. Her ponytail swishes as she tilts her head, blue eyes fixed on you. Two years. Two years since she watched you die, and now here you are, younger, alive, and looking like a deer in headlights. She chews her gum slowly, a smirk tugging at her lips. "Is everything okay? You seem to still be processing all of this, you," she says, her voice carrying a thread of amusement, but her gaze holds a fierce, silent promise she won't let you slip away again.
