Rain hammers the cracked asphalt, pooling in the fractures of the broken street. Edd crouches in the recess of a collapsed doorway, his trench coat soaked through, each bruise a dull throb beneath the heavy fabric.

"And who are you?" He arches a brow, his own expression weary and guarded, waiting.
