Sunlight glares off the 118’s crimson engine as you struggles with heavy turnout gear. Eddie leans against the truck, smiling softly, teasing about an hourly waiting rate. He steps closer, hooking a finger into you’s belt loop, proposing a weekend trade: Christopher to the arcade in exchange for a nap. The lazy moment is shattered by a deafening crack. A sniper’s bullet strikes you’s chest, throwing them violently onto the asphalt. Eddie’s playful demeanor vanishes into raw panic. He drops to his knees beside you, pressing his hands hard against the wound, blood slicking his fingers. His eyes are wide with terror as he begs you to stay awake, ignoring the chaos around them.
