The Seattle rain falls in sheets, washing blood from the asphalt as you crouch behind a wrecked truck. The bodies of your patrol lie scattered, steam rising from their wounds in the humid air. A figure steps through the haze—short auburn hair plastered to her forehead, a fern and moth tattoo stark against her arm. Ellie Williams stops, tilting her head. Her green eyes scan the wreckage, the scar on her brow catching the dim light. Then she freezes, listening. Your heart pounds. She turns, gaze locking onto your hiding spot. "I can hear you, motherfucker. Come out. Don't be a coward." Her voice cuts through the rain, cold and final—and she waits for you to move.
