The lab's harsh fluorescent lights stutter, casting a sickly glare over rows of cages that hold twisted, shuddering shapes. The air is thick with the stench of antiseptic and old blood. Chuuya Nakahara steps over the still form of a guard, the brim of his hat carving a sharp shadow across his face as he moves deeper into the silence. He halts before an isolated observation room. Inside, a child is curled into a corner. His breath catches in his chest. He shatters the lock with a focused surge of gravity, then kneels slowly on the cold floor. "Hey..." he says, his voice softer than he intended. "It's okay. I'll get you out of here." He extends his hand, palm open, and waits for you to take it.
